Itanagar, Nov. 15: Deputy Prime Minister L.K. Advani today showered praises and funds on Arunachal Pradesh while wrapping up his two-day visit to the state which gave the BJP its first government in the Northeast.
In all, Advani has committed Rs 250 crore for three projects, mobile phone service for all districts of the state by next December and a favourable look into its loan burden.
Arunachal Pradesh became the second northeastern state to benefit from the Centres largesse in the past month. Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had, during his three-day recent visit to Nagaland from October 27, announced an economic package of Rs 520 crore, besides launching the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) CellOne mobile phone service in Kohima.
At a reception hosted in his honour here today, Advani announced Rs 200 crore for the 500-bed referral hospital of which he had laid the foundation stone yesterday, Rs 20 crore for upgrading the Arunachal University and Rs 30 crore for constructing the Assembly building. Advani also said that he would see if the Rs 200 crore loan interest the state had to pay to the Centre could be transformed into a one-time grant.
Acknowledging the overwhelming hospitality Arunachal Pradesh had extended to him, Advani, in reply to a memorandum from chief minister Gegong Apang, said he would ask the ministries looking after the Northeast to ensure speedy completion of projects. Apang had requested Advani for an assistance of Rs 900 crore to enable the state to be relieved of its loan burden and meet some essential and overdue expenses for ongoing projects.
Advanis largesse is being viewed as a sop to consolidate the partys new-found strength in the state. In August, Apang had led an exodus of 38 Arunachal Congress and Congress (D) MLAs to join the BJP to form the first BJP-led government in the region. The party had no legislator in the 60-member Arunachal Assembly till then, but today it has 43 members.
Observers here feel the announcements were more of a temporary palliative rather than anything concrete.
Advani, for example, remained silent on the last point of the memorandum where Apang had mentioned the Chakma-Hajong impasse and urged him to settle the refugees outside the state as that was the popular demand.
He also remained non-committal when former chief minister and Opposition leader Mukut Mithi called upon him yesterday with a similar demand for refugee deportation. When Advani wanted to know about the Congress stand on the issue, Mithi told him that all political parties, students organisations and non-governmental organisations had no second opinion other than deportation of the Chakma-Hajong refugees.
Advani, like Vajpayee, also skirted the demand for integration of all Naga-inhabited areas of the Northeast saying there was no political consensus on the issue.

In Search of A.C. Cuza
February 24, 2016
When Alexandru C. Cuza was born in Iași, Moldavia in 1857, Romania was not yet a unified country fully freed from Ottoman vassalage. Turkish rule had not been as direct or oppressive here as in the lower Balkans, but it left the young state and ancient nation with a host of social problems. Cuza was a child when Wallachia and Moldavia were united in 1866, and not yet twenty years old during the start of the war by which Romania would gain her independence. He would go on to study in France and earn doctorates in political science and law. In The Romanian Road to Independence, Frederick Kellogg describes the mostly economically driven anti-Semitism that existed in the nascent united and independent Romania, especially in the former principality of Moldavia, when A.C. Cuza came of age:
"Thrifty Jewish entrepreneurs earned distrust as well as profit from Romanian aristocrats and peasants. In Moldavia, Jews were bankers—moneylenders and moneychangers—innkeepers, lessees of taverns in villages: grocers, rug merchants, peddlers, besides being artisans—tailors, turners, glass makers, and carpet makers. Romanians reckoned Jewish money lenders in particular to be dangerous to the social order owing to their pervasive influence on impoverished farmers and perennially indebted landed proprietors. Boiers, or aristocrats, regarded commerce and industry to be beneath their dignity, thereby leaving the door open for their Jewish creditors to seize control of an important segment of the economy. An additional problem was the Jewish way of life in Moldavia. The Jews' exclusive family circles and non-Romanian customs clearly identified them as outsiders. Romanians considered them to be aliens, and some were indeed foreign subjects protected by one or another of the great powers."
It was in this atmosphere of decaying Ottoman suzerainty and Ashkenazi immigration that anti-Semitism such as A.C. Cuza's was fostered. Nevertheless, historian Irina Liveneanu has labeled him "the father of Romanian anti-Semitism," so influential was he on the younger generation of Romanians. He later became the dean and a popular lecturer at the law school in Iași University, and mentored Romanian students who feared the growing Jewish presence in higher education.
The most charismatic and influential of these students was Corneliu Zelea Codreanu. According to Codreanu scholar Dr. Rebecca Haynes, "Cuza became Codreanu's godfather and acted as his mentor when Codreanu was a student at Iași University… In his attitude toward the Jewish minority, Codreanu was greatly influenced by his godfather, A.C. Cuza." Together Cuza and Codreanu established the League of Christian Defense (Liga Apărării Național Creștine, L.A.N.C.) in 1923. This radical student group used the swastika as a symbol a full decade before Hitler came to power in Germany, where both Cuza and the half-German Codreanu had studied.
Internal administrative politics in the League soured Cuza and Codreanu's relationship by 1927, a break which Dr. Haynes attributes also to Cuza's being — at least at the time — "willing to work entirely within the parliamentary system." Codreanu seems to have been more strongly anti-democratic than his mentor, and despised the parliamentary system as such. It wasn't until after Codreanu's paramilitary approach proved successful that Cuza adopted similar tactics.
This has sometimes been unconvincingly interpreted to mean their split occurred because Codreanu was essentially more violent than Cuza. In fact, Cuza's own rival militia has been described by some scholars as more violent than Codreanu's Iron Guard — at least while Codreanu was still alive. According to Ion Antonescu biographer Dennis Deletant, for example, A.C. Cuza's lancieri (or "blue shirts") consisted of nothing but "an army of thugs," so in the 1930s, "it was not the Guard that posed the chief threat to public order."
A.C. Cuza's willingness to work within the parliamentary system paid off, at least for a time. In the 1930s he formed a new political party with the poet Octavian Goga, a coalition which was selected to rule the country by the increasingly autocratic king in response to Codreanu's growing popularity. During the short-lived but influential Goga-Cuza period, anti-Jewish discriminatory laws and measures were enacted in Romania.
Cuza's party was not as popular as Codreanu's, and the Goga-Cuza government ruled only briefly in late 1937 and early 1938 before being forced out of power and replaced by King Carol II's direct dictatorship. It was this monarchial dictatorship that had Codreanu imprisoned and assassinated in late 1938. Corneliu Zelea Codreanu had finally broken the parliamentary system he so despised, though at the cost of his own life.
In the 1940s, which saw the Communist takeover of Romania, Cuza had to leave Iași for Transylvania. However, he was apparently spared the notorious fate of Ion Antonescu, probably because he was considered too old to stand before a kangaroo court. Thus robbed of the martyrdom seen in other, more popular Romanian historical figures, A.C. Cuza has not generated as much attention among historians as he merits. This may explain the dearth of information on him in English. He passed away in 1947. One particularly hostile source, Romanian-Jewish historian I.C. Butnaru, laments that "A.C. Cuza died comfortably in his bed and was never judged for his misdeeds."
Cuza's body of work is not always consistent, except in its unapologetic anti-Semitism. Cuza's 1905 publication Nationality in Art, or Nationality in the Arts (the book deals far more with literature than with the plastic arts), was first published in complete book form in 1908 and went through several revisions throughout his lifetime. This book demonstrates that Cuza began as an Indo-European chauvinist in the vein of Houston Stewart Chamberlain, although Cuza already included Persians as Aryan in that book.
In his 1922 article "The Science of Anti-Semitism," which was approvingly reprinted in its entirety in Codreanu's autobiography For My Legionaries, Cuza demonstrates that he had by then changed some of his opinions, such as his appraisal of Islam and the Arabs. While maintaining his lifelong opposition to "mixture of unrelated races," Cuza, in "The Science of Anti-Semitism," has now abandoned his racial chauvinism in favor of what might be called pan-antisemitism. However, Nationality in the Arts continued to be published in several editions long after "The Science of Anti-Semitism" first appeared.
One way in which A.C. Cuza remained consistent is that, unlike the traditionally Orthodox Christian Codreanu and another Cuza associate, unsung insulin discoverer Dr. Nicolae Paulescu, Cuza was interested in the sort of Bible revisionism similar to that which would in Germany later be dubbed "Positive Christianity." In contrast to Codreanu and Dr. Paulescu, Cuza's religious views were more Wagnerian than Orthodox, though this was not a reason for Cuza and Codreanu's 1927 falling out. These ideas appear as early as Nationality in the Arts and are expanded upon in this 1925 book, The Teaching of Jesus.

When you think about installing new hardwood floors in your home, what color do you picture them being? Traditionally, most homeowners would name a common shade of brown. However, an increasing number of people are using a different color for their home's flooring: grey.
Grey is quickly becoming one of the biggest color trends in interior design - and it's not hard to see why. As Elle Decor pointed out, much of the hype is fueled by the rising popularity of the Scandinavian/minimalist look (think muted tones, white sheep skin rugs, wood furnishings and bronze accents). But there's several reasons why grey has become such a favorable choice in the home.
From pewter to charcoal, all variations are chic and versatile. With grey, you have a subtle shade that allows you mix up your home's design from conventional cream and white color palettes without being too drastic. For example, grey can complement the stainless steel fixtures and appliances commonly found in bathrooms and kitchens, but also integrate into bedrooms and living rooms that have a variety of colors, textures and patterns.
Tips for making grey colors work in your home
If you're weary about "going grey" with your floors, you're not alone. Some are hesitant about installing grey hardwood floors because it is more of a commitment than, say, a grey couch. However, if you fear this color trend is just a fad, you have nothing to worry about. Although it is particularly popular right now, grey floors possess a timeless appeal. As Homedit.com explained, the key to being able to enjoy this trend - now and in the future - comes down to how you use it.
Because grey is technically a neutral, much of its appearance is influenced by its surroundings. Pairing rustic grey floors with pale pink walls, for example, can give the space a feminine, shabby chic feel. But if you crave a more serious and traditional environment down the line, the wood flooring will look just as great with tan or white walls.
Also keep in mind that grey, in any shade, matches virtually every color, so it's the perfect canvas on which to experiment with exciting decor. The muted tones instantly make any touch of color - even soft pastels - really pop.
"Grey wood flooring isn't just a fleeting trend."
Different types of grey wood floors
As far as the specific type of wood species to look for in grey flooring, oak, hickory and maple are all popular choices. The one that will work best for you will largely depend on the vibe you are aiming for. Lighter shades of grey that help produce the soothing, casual feel of a beach home can often be found in oak flooring. For example, Anderson Hardwood's Muir's Park Collection showcases various shades of engineered oak floors that use natural knots and grain formations along with skilled sanding, painting and staining processes to highlight the wood embellishments. The result is a weathered look perfect for rooms you want to relax in.
If you prefer a darker shade of grey to create an estate-like atmosphere for your office or bedroom, consider maple wood floors, such as those featured in Anderson's Bernina Maple Collection. These hand-scraped surfaces are engineered to give each board a unique and alluring appearance.
As with any type of floor, the quality of its construction can be the difference between having a floor that looks stylish and sophisticated or a surface that looks dull and worn. This is why, rather than DIY staining projects, most homeowners prefer to go with a prefinished product that has been manufactured by skilled craftspeople.

To think that parents with family and friends enjoy parenthood more?(64 Posts)
Dh and I have one ds who is 16 months.
We both work part time and juggle most of the child care between each other (we are lucky to be able to do this but it has meant a cut in income).
Dh and i are pretty equal in sharing household chores as well. I still do more of the childcare though, as ds still wakes at night and is an early riser (dh struggles more when sleep deprived so this my domain).
I originally thought I would stay at home for a couple of years and try to have a second baby straight after the first, but I found life with a new baby unimaginably hard and lonely and was desperate to get back to work so I could have a break from it all. So when I went back (4 days a week) dh cut his work down to part time too so he could help out more, as he was working really long hours before.
We have virtually no support network where we live. No family at all. We have a few work related friends and that is it. I tried to make some baby group friends while on maternity leave and I did get to know a handful of nice women but they are so busy with work and family, it is hard to catch up with them and develop more of a friendship. That is one thing I didn't have in common with them, a busy life with family and friends nearby and grandparents to help with the baby.
We are pretty lonely and when we do get a chance to socialise we notice what a difference it makes to our lives and can't help but imagine what it must be like for others to have family and friends around when raising children.
Last week I managed to have a coffee with an old work friend, and the difference it made to all of us was amazing! How sad is that? But just getting a break away from dh and ds and work and housework made a huge difference to how I felt about everything. It also improved the way we felt about each other. It just lifted the relentlessness of it all.
We both love Ds but find the whole situation depressingly difficult. I feel guilty that he isn't surrounded by an extended family that love him as well. The guilt is also there about not giving him a brother or sister, but I found it so difficult with one baby, how would I cope with a baby and a toddler as well?
So I suspect people with family and friends around for socialising and even to help out with babysitting (dh and I have not been out without ds ever) have a very different view of parenthood. Aibu?
Oh yes the non-settling non- sleeping baby, I own 2 of these and even with family nearby I can't get out at night! I have got to the point where i'm not even massively precious about leaving them to cry with dh, but I couldn't ask anyone else to do it, it wouldn't be fair.
Op YADNBU but it might not be as easy as just "get a babysitter". I would second all the advice re trying to make friends- the closest we've had to a night out has been where we get together with another family with kids, adults BBQ/get a takeaway or whatever, kids play till they collapse! You're talking approx 4-8pm but at least there is a modicum of alcohol and adult chat involved!
I would agree emsmaman. I just thought we'd get babysitters. Little realising that mine is so difficult to settle to sleep (now age 7) that I couldn't expect anybody to do it - paid or not. Neither could I have predicted that she'd spend two years waking up raring to go at 4am from age 2. Without any help or support it is extremely difficult.
Ephiny can you genuinely say you knew how hard parenting would be before you had a child? I know I didn't, and many of my friends didn't either - although babies of course do vary in personality and difficulty. No-one could have predicted that my DH would refuse to let others look after DD. No-one could have predicted that my DD would refuse the bottle and breastfeed like a maniac so that for over six months I couldn't go out for more than an hour or she would be screaming the block of flats down. No-one could have predicted that at 18mo she would still not sleep through the night, making getting out in the evening difficult, particular using babysitters, and leaving us too shattered to do so after work even if we could.
I think generally people with some social life and support network are happier than those without, regardless of whether they're parents or not.
It can depend on your individual personality type though, and what your family is actually like - for some people family involvement can feel like interference and loss of privacy/independence, or there can be conflict and unpleasantness that makes it all more trouble than it's worth.
I'm not sure you've much to gain by envying others and complaining about how difficult everything is for you (other people will have their problems too). Surely you knew before deciding to have a child that there would not be free babysitting available to you? If you won't use a paid babysitter, that again is your choice.
YANBU I often wonder the same. It is hard in the early years if you don't have a ready made support system. But you can build one up.
It takes time, a lot of time in my case, but five years later we have a few family friends with similar age dc in the area, whom we help out if they need a hand with something, and they help us.
There are special people in my dd's life - whether they be her childminder, her swimming teacher, a particular teacher at school who took a liking to her, parents of her friends. It does develop over time.
We don't have much of a social life, except with friends we knew before we had dc who visit for the weekend now and again. But it takes effort - you have to invite them and yes the difference it makes to our well being is huge.
and those of you saying that she is being unreasonable, and that life isn't harder with small children and no family support network... what rubbish.
I think life is always going to be easier with a support network, and that yes, that will affect parenthood as well. However as others say, I think having family around would bring in a whole other set of issues.
We moved to our current location when I was 5 months pregnant, knowing no-one, with family in the country but 3-4 hours away by car. Six years on, I have a large network of friends whom I've met in various situations (weightwatchers, swimming, just chatting in the park, nursery, work) as well as long-term friends who I don't see very often as they are too far away, but are always at the end of a phone. Ok thats a lie. I never phone them. I communicate through facebook and email. But theres still communication! We rarely go out together, because its too expensive to hire a babysitter, but I still try and make a life for myself outside work and home - I go to exercise classes (another place to meet folk) and to the pub with friends now and again. DH not so much but then he's always been less sociable.
We enjoy parenthood - to a point - the boys are great but bl**dy hard work but wouldnt change it. I enjoy it more because of the existence of a) nursery b) school as that is my break - when I go to work. On the odd occasion we get family visits its lovely, but I'm glad when they're gone
Everyone needs a break, of course they do. Can you afford a babysitter so at least you can get out with DH? or a couple of mornings at nursery (if not the free funding will kick in when she's 3. Book a manicure or something or just go for a coffee alone - sometimes just a break from constantly monitoring a small child or chatting to an adult lifts the spirits.
YANBU at all bless you. We moved to a new area when DD was 2 and I was pregnant. I didnt know anyone really the first few weeks here were awful - sitting in the park on my own (well with DD but 2 year olds not great company for the entire day). I went to parent and toddler group with the sole intention of making friends would spot women I thought looked my type with similar age kids and basically chat them up. Its abit like looking for a boyfriend in your twenties - chat to 4 maybe one will click. It takes a while - we moved here in 2008 now have a great gang of approx 7 local families with parents we genuinely like and DC who play brilliantly with our 2 we socialise after school and at weekends. I dont think people were designed to stay in little units with young children you need peer support. You do need to make it happen though and be robust enough for the knock backs but its worth it. Good luck x
OP YANBU. Our DD is 18mo, nearest family is in Europe. I understood the need to get paid help such as babysitters with no family nearby but my DH would not let other people look after her. I had my first night out on my own when DD was 16 mo, we have had 2 date nights since she was born. I recently had my first night away from DD for a work trip.
I enjoy my DD so much more now that we get time apart when I go to work 3 days a week. I would have felt far more "balanced" in the first year, even to have someone around to make me a cup of tea or hold the baby for five mins. I am scared of having a second DC as I don't want to go back to that all intensive state of newborn-ness with noone to help when DH is at work for long days.
We moved to new area with first but by time the wave of excitement at being a mum was waning Id managed to surround myself with new supportive friends. It was one of the happiest times of my life.
Then we had to move. Ive put years of effort into going out and trying to meet people and I know a lot of people to have quick chats to but not to offer support or to socialise outside of childrens stuff.
It's been a lot harder. When stuff happens and there is little or no support you get through but it takes longer to get over.
I still love the DC and enjoy them but I know if wed stopped in first location it would have just been much more fun generally and bit easier.
All I can sugest is that you keep trying to meet people and keep the effort up and it will get easier as the DC get older.
I agree with you, I don't know how I would have coped without all the help and babysitting we get from family. There are times you just need a break to yourself, couple time or adult time with others.
I definitely agree OP. My family are only 2 hours away but I still missed them a lot when our kids were little. My sister lives in the same town as my parents and has it so much easier. I could probably count on 2 hands the number of nights out me and my husband have had together since our children arrived (8 years ago!!!).
I definitely think two is easier than one. And also that it opens up more opportunities. I didn't have that desperation about making mummy friends when my second came along so it happened more naturally. Also I think it is a big shock to the system having your first and you still miss your old lifestyle. It's different with another one as you're ina different groove by then..
I would also say ask for help. Get your work friends involved in the babysitting. They will want to. Most people love a) helping and b) gorgeous babies! Don't block them out. I did. There was a lady who lived near us who is lovely and her husband worked long hours at the time, her kids had just gone to uni and she was always offering to help. I used to think it would be taking advantage of her. Only now do I see that it would have been a benefit to her as well as us. Don't be proud. Think of the village raising a child saying...
Totally agree OP. My family lives five hours away and DH's are scattered all over and we don't see them much. I have felt really isolated despite making nice mummy friends. Whenever my parents visit everything seems so much simpler. As soon as they leave I find my confidence dips again. It is tough. But lots are in this sitch so at least people understand. None of my mum friends have family nearby.
I don't have a partner any more of family close to me. I do have a good circle of friends but everyone has their own little ones so not much babysitting help from them unfortunately and we tend to meet up in the day at the weekend, never the evenings because of the kids. I've been out once in 2012 At least you have your DH to keep you company x
op- why don't you ask some of the staff at nursery if they do babysitting? most do- especially the younger ones who are glad of the extra money.
You haven't adjusted, that's all.
You're looking at all the things you can't do any more, instead of all the new opportunities.
You also sound like you could be suffering with a bit of depression, as depression is often linked to feeling disempowered, but you're not. You really aren't.
Yadnbu. Going out to tea group with my NCT crowd was the highlight of my week for a couple of years. I would shower with my "best" shower gel on those days and put makeup on, like it was a special occasion! I am so grateful to have lived in a busy place with lots of people around me and lots of things to do, but it was tough never having a break from the children.
Hateful reply from Lisaro!
Not read whole thread yet but yes I agree. My husband works away so I can't go out. I am so envious of all those around me who can nip to shops while dc are with granny or who plan afternoons with a group of friends. I would love a warm extended family and good friends. I would love to adopt a granny for my dc!
However, I think you need to think about what childcare you could use in order for you and DH to have some time together, that you trust and feel comfortable with.
Do any of the staff at the nursery offer babysitting? I understand that you have anxieties about leaving DS, but that quality time as a couple is what is missing here and makes such a difference to your relationship.
I agree with you, OP. My partner and I live in the middle of nowhere and he works all week. Sometimes I feel I am going insane with nobody to talk to, just to pass the time of day. I recently visited my family in another country and it was fantastic to see them, much more so that they helped out with my baby.
My NCT friends were lovely to meet during the day and share experiences with.
However, I have no near by family or friends to easily baby sit.
I'm of those people who have family or Mummy friends at the same school who can do tea or evenings.
The freedom a friend gets from having mum round the corner from school is do helpful.
She doesn't have to be back at 3pm, she doesn't have to drag siblings to after school clubs, she and her DH have even had the odd meal out and night away.
YANBU but it depends on the type of family. We used to live near my family who were unhelpful,uninterested and critical. I only have one sister and few other relatives so a small family. We then moved across the country to be near DHs family, dh has 5 brothers and sisters and they all have children plus many aunts,uncles etc etc. Its fab, so many people around big get togethers and help when we need it.
To add, I don't find life with DS a chore at all, in fact it's very social and busy. I go to toddler group twice a week, meet with my SAHD friend once a week, take a trip into the village for coffee with other mums once a week and spend the other day doing all the work I was supposed to be doing when I was gadding about DH and I don't get much opportunity to go out together, which is a shame, but we make an effort to socialise at home by having nice dinners together and downloading films to watch together.
I've moved around a lot, the last time being when DS was about 9 months old (he's now 21 months). When you move, making friends and building a social life takes effort - effort that a lot of people don't seem willing to put in. For the first 6 months or so it's very tough going, putting yourself out there, chatting constantly to new people, meeting a few duds and being let down a few times. But the fact is, in any place in the world there will be people you genuinely like. You just have to find them and that takes time, and a fair bit of looking. You absolutely have to put yourself out there.
Having lived here a year I now have a group of about 5 good friends who I could call on in an emergency. I'm not super close to all of them - two of them are becoming close friends (this takes time) and the others will stay good friends I think. I made these friends by going to toddler groups, meetups, work dos with DH (one of my close friends is the husband of his work colleague who is a SAHD), and talking to people. I am now on the committee of the fantastic local toddler group, which I was incredibly lucky to find, it's a lifeline, and my main job is as "meeter and greeter" - to get new people talking. Boy is it a hard bloody job. I assume the vast majority of parents go to toddler groups to meet people but you wouldn't know it by the demeanour of a good few of them. I am friendly and nice (this is why I've been chosen to meet and greet) but getting some people to talk and participate is like drawing blood from a stone. I do get there eventually - I'm persistent! - but I don't see how people think they're going to make any friends if they don't make an ounce of effort. I know people are shy but at some point you have to try to overcome that, especially when others are doing their best to help you, and just start talking.
I think it is much easier if you have family and friends around. DH's parents have just moved to the same town, and what an amazing difference it's made. For the children just being able to see granny and grandad after school for 10 minutes is great.
I think it does get better once they are at school because they really start to get their own friends, and your social network builds up then as well.
Sorry you're felling down about it. I'd agree with the others that it's easier with more than one child as well as you are so busy!

Remember that first presidential debate? That was fun! In fact, it was the most fun I've ever had watching a debate. And I knew immediately that Hillary was the clear winner and the polls would reflect that. Since then it's been one hit after another against Trump, culminating in the campaign killer from last Friday.
Maybe the past two weeks got my hopes too high for last night. All expectations aside, however, the second Clinton/Trump showdown was still the most disgusting and dispiriting debate I've ever witnessed. Disgusting because of lurching, lying, lecherous disaster that is Donald Trump...and dispiriting because of all the damage he's doing to the country I love.
It was truly horrific to witness, and I really had no idea what to think as it ended. Did the lies win? Was the bullying effective? Will America actually give this awful man one last chance?
But as it turns out, my worry was misplaced...because America rejected the awful, lying bully.
CNN/ORC poll of debate watchers: Hillary Clinton won second presidential #debate 57% to 34% https://t.co/gyn8Jz8gjT https://t.co/O2oAbHkaR4— CNN (@CNN) October 10, 2016
It made me sick to watch Donald's relentless, false attacks on Hillary for ninety minutes. He threw everything he had at her. A full-on nuclear assault. But Clinton not only survived but thrived and prevailed with her poise and dignity undamaged.Who won debate? Per CNN insta-poll— Dan Diamond (@ddiamond) October 10, 2016
· 64% of women say Clinton did
· 49% of men say Clinton did pic.twitter.com/K7IpCQ4LZ3
And look at this:
You're reading that right. Thanks to last night, voters have a favorable opinion of Hillary Clinton once again! I believe this is a foreshadowing of what her typical approval rating will be as president.CNN post-debate poll favorability ratings— HawaiiDelilah (@HawaiiDelilah) October 10, 2016
Favorable 55%
Unfavorable 44%
34% Favorable
64% Unfavorable
Trump was very successful in the debate in one respect, though: His base is fired up like never before. Finally someone stood up to the Clintons like they've always wanted, and he's their hero. The problem for him and the Republican establishment is that amounts to only about 35% of the country. And meanwhile, everyone else is appalled. So not only did Hillary further secure the presidency last night, but downballot Republicans everywhere are caught in a terrible trap from which there may be no escape.
As a result, I now believe that Hillary Clinton will win in a transformational landslide and enter the White House in January with both houses of Congress in Democratic control.
And yes, even Texas is fully on the table now.

A brief glimpse at what everyone believes this summer. Part of ACC Week.
Stop me if you've heard this one before, but finally, 2011 looks like the year Florida State makes it move back… OK, so you have heard this one before. That's good, because you're going to be hearing and awful lot about the annual Seminole revival over the next six weeks or so, this time with feeling.
So far, the major preseason mags have unanimously tabbed FSU not only to repeat at the top of the ACC Atlantic, but also to return to the top ten after a decade-long hiatus. About half see the 'Noles creeping back into the top five. All but one ranks them ahead of the reigning ACC overlord, Virginia Tech, as the best team in the conference. So you might as well get used to it.
In fact, there's a good chance you're already used to it. Since Florida State was last Florida State — FSU hasn't come close to contending nationally since dropping the 2001 Orange Bowl to Oklahoma with the BCS championship on the line — the mainstream consensus tracked by Stassen.com counts FSU as a go-to preseason favorite, year after year, regardless of the actual returns:
Florida State Preseason Consensus Since 2001
2001: 1st ACC (Unanimous), 6th National.
2002: 1st ACC (Unanimous), 4th National.
2003: 1st ACC, 15th National.
2004: 2nd ACC, 6th National.
2006: 1st ACC Atlantic, 10th National.
2007: 1st ACC Atlantic, 21st National.
2008: 3rd ACC Atlantic
2009: 1st ACC Atlantic, 17th National.
2010: 1st ACC Atlantic, 21st National.
2011: 1st ACC Atlantic (Unanimous), T-5th National.
As predicitions go, it's a fairly dubious streak. FSU justified the pundits' optimism with ACC titles in 2002, 2003 and 2005, though even in '02 and '05 they wound up falling well short of national expectations with five losses in both seasons. In the meantime, though, it's been a steady diet of disappointment: The teams projected to win the Atlantic in 2006, 2007 and 2009 all staggered across the finish line at 7-6, good for fifth, fourth and third place in the division, respectively.
It's not that the pundits are gluttons for prognosticative punishment. In the first place, Florida State has continued to dominate ACC recruiting during its decade in the desert, signing the No. 1 class in the conference (according to Rivals) seven of the last ten years. In the second place, they place in a consistently vulnerable division, where the only rival that can remotely keep pace with Florida State in recruiting, Clemson, is regarded as a chronic underachiever in its own right after croaking away golden opportunities in 2006 and 2007, collapsing as a runaway favorite in 2008 and settling into another pattern of mediocrity. The resident overachiever, Boston College, can't touch the 'Noles' overall talent; neither can inconsistent Maryland or N.C. State. And the less said about the current status of Wake Forest as a viable contender, the better.
Under those circumstances, if you keep throwing darts at the board long enough, eventually one of them is going to hit its target. 2010 was the bullseye the summer pundits have been waiting for.
That's probably more clear in retrospect than it was during a season that was almost instantly submerged by a 47-17 flogging at Oklahoma in the second game. More importantly, though, was where the Seminoles finished, even beyond the top of the Atlantic Division standings. They trounced Miami in Miami, capped a three-game win streak with an emphatic beatdown of Florida to close the regular season and laid the lumber on SEC East champ South Carolina in the bowl game. Their two conference losses in the regular came by a combined six points in the closing seconds. They won ten games for the first time since 2003 and landed in the top 20 of the final polls for the first time since the ACC split into two divisions in 2005.
Then they went out and signed arguably the best incoming recruiting class in the country to go with a lineup that already brings back 17 returning starters. To a man, the new additions to the lineup — junior quarterback E.J. Manuel, sophomore linebackers Christian Jones and Jeff Luc, juco transfers Tank Carradine and Jacob Fahrenkrug on the lines — are blue-chip types with likely NFL futures.
But at its root, the latest, most effusive round of optimism is less about the specifics of the 2011 roster than it is the general vine of progress coming off Jimbo Fisher's first season as head coach. He accomplished his primary goal: Reestablishing some momentum toward Florida State's birthright as ACC overlord and perennial national contender after years of stagnation and decline under septuagenarian Bobby Bowden and an aging coaching staff. The 'Noles are not only a talented, experienced lineup coming off a division title; at the end of 2010, there was a palpable sense for the first time in ages that the program is actually moving forward.
That sense, combined with a talented, experienced lineup, a manageable schedule and a prediction industry apparently determined to see the Seminoles as the garnet-and-gold-clad Horsemen of the Apocalypse who ran roughshod over college football throughout the nineties, will get you a ticket that says "BCS or Bust." The recent history of power programs breaking through in their second year under a new head coach only raises the stakes.

2017 : The Writing Year, And All The Perks Of It.
Disclaimer: The following post contains advertorial part from a sponsor who believes in the good purpose of sharing tips about blogging and writing.
The opinion written below is genuinely mine. Thank you for the understanding.
Hello, New Year. It's been a great resting week, the first seven days of January we had. I've spend my nights went to the cinema and watched the joyful, tears-dropping "La La Land", followed by the quiet and somewhat hauntingly beautiful "Arrival". I've meet my friends and shared great meals together. I travel a bit from Jakarta to Jogja and back. I sleep a lot. I savoured the gleaming sunset on a long ride with my boyfriend G. In between the leisure times, I work on my projects - all the on going ones. Today is where the laid back hours will end - one shall limit themselves from having long holiday, because only by working the routine laboriously then we can appreciate the moment of pure relax. So I start this post, and greeting you here. Have you grew familiar with 2017 yet? One of the greatest challenge for someone who kept a handwritten daily journal is those few first weeks of having so many wrong 2016 marks on the paper. Yesterday, instead of writing 15 - 01 - 2017, I wrote 15 - 01 - 2015 (not even a year, but two years worth of wrongness).
It takes time to remember that, yes, the year has officially changed. It takes many days to say 2017, when our mind still got a bit familiar with 2016. We don't feel the New Year straightly after - instead, we slowly learn. The same thing goes with Yearly Resolution (or the thing we know as My List Of Stuff I Will Eventually Forget To Do). What makes our resolution hard is because we think that we only have one shot to do it. The year-long period only. The typical "No more junk food this year" or "I will regularly working out this year" kind of crap, where we will kept only for this first exciting month - or week, in some worse cases - then we'll grew tired of putting up with the promises, and quit. We'll forget about those promises for the rest of year and we'll do the same thing again when the future comes. Some friends of mine decided to never make resolutions ever again. They feel like they had ruined the opportunity to do the things right, and they have failed.
But they might forget, that there's no such thing as an immediate permanence, in this so-called imperfect life of imperfect human beings. If we fail on some wishes, we can always try again. No one is judging (but ourselves). So I think I'd still want to believe that resolutions are okay. The things that I've dreamt about and don't want to give up, will still be on my 2017 resolution list. The same goes to things I have tried to pursue but apparently never meant for me: they're on my 2017 timeline, only now they're being moved to The List of Things I Will Let Go this year.
Because it takes time, to heal. To forgive, to study, to know which one worth keeping.
So this morning I embrace myself: 2016 resolution, you are not forgotten; you'll just get an upgrade.
In 2016, I promise myself to write everyday. It was before I realize that somewhere along the way I have to mix the plan with the idea of publishing my indie magazine, working on my own book, and keeping up with the blogging community. I have messed-up schedule Those simple-sounding resolutions, but tricky to accomplish because of the broad context it holds. A general wish will be hard to do because we don't break down the "idea" into a step-by-step operational strategy. I've thought about it through, and I found a way to ensure myself that this year I can try better by following these straightforward moves below. I call it A Guide To The Writing Year of 2017:
Have a journal that fits your need to take notes easily.
Journaling is essential for my writing quality. It improves me on exploring storytelling, and helps to document all the important ideas that pops during the day. I'm quite a conservative when it comes on possessing journal - I like when I can feel the paper, write with my own pen. So I choose a minimalist-looking agenda that I can carry around with me. But you can also journaling in a digital way - either by using a program on your laptop or recording your day as voice notes.
Make a simple Writing-Plan Calendar.
It can be confusing, to try writing at the first time. You don't know what you want to write, or the kind of topic that will be good for your portfolio. As someone who loves exercising on my writing skill, I choose to challenge myself with a specific topic each time. So I make a Yearly Writing Plan Calendar, filled with ideas and theme that I want to write. For Example, this January I schedule myself to write about anything under the theme "First". That will trigger me to search for different kind of approach about my Firsts - it can be about my first day of 2017, my first love, my first fashion purchase, how to be the first on something, etc.
Create a Writing Morning habit - set up an alarm, and write for 30 minutes.
I don't sleep early, so waking up in the morning is quite a challenge for me. But setting up an alarm and making an enjoyable habit to try will be a great help. I set my writing-alarm to 9AM everyday, and you can use free-downloadable apps to compile all your writing projects together (and may access the program from your laptop or phone, just in case you're mobile). One of the hardest problem that writers must face is on being consistently producing their works, so this habit will certainly be a great way of polishing your discipline.
Challenge the self: Publish a post every week on the blog, followed by blogwalking.
I wasn't focusing myself on blogging a lot in the previous year, so in 2017 I want to be more intimately involved with my blog and read more blogs in the following. Having a blog is great for building your writing habit, because it connects you to the community in which you will receive feedback. You can take the constructive criticism to learn and push yourself harder. If you want to start writing, consider creating your own blog. It's great and it can be used for as many purposes as you want. You can set a once-in-a-month posting commitment if you want to stay light.
Make / Join a writing workshop, to meet and support each other in the community.
One of my biggest desire is to host a regular writing workshop with my friends, in order to expand our experience and start helping one another. On workshop, we can exchange ideas and having conversation with new friends; as well as practising writing "workout" in a fun way. So either making or joining, both will be a must on my list this year!
Read a minimum two (2) books every month.
Constant, productive reading is one essential key that leads us to a good writing. By doing productive reading means we're not only savouring the story, but also trying to multi-task learning about the way it's being produced. How the characters are? What kind of plot is used? How is the choice of vocabulary? We will enrich our exploration by reading more effectively - not speed reading, but quality reading. We can add many new vocabularies and ways to deploy certain descriptions. We can understand what kind of joke will made us laugh, what kind of twist will made us surprised. So I will make myself read at least two great books every month, in order to make a better understanding on how other people write.
Send handwritten letters for every loved ones' birthday.
A small gesture filled with care and genuine effort. I love writing letters, and what's more heart-warming than receiving a carefully handwritten letter from others? So I think instead of saying "Happy Birthday" cold and flat through Whatsapp, I'd put a reminder for myself to start writing letters for each of my celebrated special ones. We can start with our family, and closest friends. The joy you get from presenting a handmade card will sparks your heart into creating more and more meaningful writings in the future.
Upgrade my selection of devices and gadget to work with.
A delightful start for someone who works with gadget and electronic devices is by making sure that we use only our best favorites to create content. This means that, despite of the rapid change of technology (that will provide many options to choose), we can simplify our decision by picking the one we enjoy working with the most. In my case, it's my renewed vintage camera, my current Fujifilm mirrorless, and my Oh-So-Beautiful Golden laptop. Yes, as seen on the photo, the brightest Swift 7 from Acer.
What I like the most from Acer is that they let me try this laptop first before I can finally decide to buy one, along with letting me write this resolution-sharing post with you in the beginning. I've been so excited during the unboxing because, well, IT'S GOLD. And knowing that my preferences of clothing and home decor is basically monochromatic meets green, this device is such a harmonic addition to my working table. Stylishly slim (9.98mm only), I've tried carrying the girl around to my favorite cafes and I find it wonderful to use.
What would a writer need? A comfortable keyboard, and a clear screen to read (and re-read) the script we're writing. The combination of black & gold gives this laptop not only such elegance, but also a friendly highlight to the screen; making the light comes in subtle yellow reflection that comes from it's gold surface. The Full HD screen (with Corning Gorilla Glass 5) also helps the writing process to be less-tiring for the eyes to see. So I enjoyed this laptop a lot, and having those French-lady moment where I write by the bed and having a glass of Moscato in my hands, tuning on some French song played through Swift 7's premium sound speaker. It's golden, in most luxurious way, but also modestly humble at the same time thanks to the minimalist design.
Looking at the pictures, my writing life seems beautiful. And even though at times it won't be so pretty (because obstacles, and hardwork, and all those mess~), but having your favorite writing tools will keep your spirit boosted, if not little by little.
Have a writing break every time you finish a small challenge.
This is a resolution for anyone who doesn't really get that besides writing hard, we also have to take a fun break from it. Do something completely different than writing - go traveling, take a lazy day off, make a cake yourself, do DIY craft, hang out with friends, paint - when we know how to have fun, we will have a greater balance during the effortful phase. And it's always important to be less uptight, and embrace life for its everyday beauty. As much as I want 2017 to be my committed Writing Year, by the end all I want is to love what I do and not making it into another routine that I'd hate by the end. The more important thing other than writing is to feel life, and to enjoy every second that we have this year. To soak in the moments, to be present.

On Saturday, April 5th, 2014, the Afghan people delivered a resounding message to the Taliban and observers around the world. They voted not only for the presidential candidate and provincial council members of their choice but also for a democratic process in which citizens—both men and women—have a participatory role and can hold their leaders accountable. Afghan musicians and artists offer us a unique view of this historic moment from their perspectives.
In a series of pieces on the election, graphic artist Azim Fakhri used the image of a fingerprint to affirm his intention to vote. He specifically refrained from mentioning any candidate; the art was about the importance of the act itself.
The decision to vote in Afghanistan goes beyond civic duty. With extremist groups bent on thwarting elections and intimidating citizens, the act requires considerable courage. However, instead of its intended effect, a spate of pre-election violence—particularly the slaughter of children and families at a Kabul hotel on the eve of the Persian/Afghan New Year (Nawruz) triggered a sense of defiance that seemingly mobilizing millions to vote. After the assault on the Serena hotel, a moving musical tribute spoke what millions of Afghans sought to articulate through their vote:
"Enough killing children…enough suicide attacks…enough, Mr. President, of (your) silence."
During the lead-up to the elections young Afghan musicians and rappers participated in a contest organized by Sound Central Festival for an "election anthem," urging citizens to make their voices heard. Tolo TV, the same channel that airs the popular talent show, Afghan Star, broadcast the competition. "Everyone's hope is related to your vote," rapped Sonita, winner of the female category.
The message of Sami Enteqad and Shaheed Ghafar, winning Herati rappers in the male category, was similar: "your choice and my choice is a new future." The contest sought to highlight the voices and ideas of youth, encouraging civic engagement among the younger generation. In a country where around 68% of the population is under the age of 25, the youth are a potent constituency.
Afghanistan New Generation Organization (ANGO) had a similar vision to engage the youth; they hosted a 60-second film festival featuring short films by Afghans representing their personal messages about the election. The first place entry by Said Maqsood Akbari depicted an impoverished nomad boy running after election papers in a windy, barren desert. His mother looks to see where he is going, and the scene is transformed into a lush playground where the boy is playing with other children, including a little girl. The scene fades out on the words "Election, the only hope."
Ramin Noori's 60-second film that won the "Audience Choice" award showed a map of Afghanistan dissolving into individual butterflies. The butterflies make their way to the ballot box, labeled "Entekhabat" (election). A single, green-colored butterfly emerges from the voting process, with a message: "Let us change our beloved country's destiny with our votes…" and ending with the exhortation: "The new page is yours. Write it beautifully."
Around 7 million Afghans of 12 million eligible voters (nearly 60%) decided to give this idea a shot and went to the polls despite punishing security threats, long lines, and nasty weather in many parts of the country. This was several million more than the number that turned out to vote in 2009.
In Kandahar, across the border from the Taliban's center of operations in Quetta, Pakistan, the threat of violence is especially imminent. That did not stop the Kandahar Fine Arts Association from pioneering a graffiti art campaign in support of the elections. They focused on mosque parking lots and other high-traffic areas to spray-paint their messages: "Ballots not Bullets" and "Your Voice, Your Vote."
"The people love color, they love art," explained a Kandahari street artist. "They are happy to see messages that aren't in favor of one candidate or another, but are in favor of the act of voting, of choosing our future."
Although the extraordinary spirit and determination of the voters dominated the headlines, the human cost to make their votes possible was very high. Civilian casualties were low because the assault intended to disrupt the voting was absorbed largely by the Afghan National Security Forces, deployed en masse for election day. Seventeen members of the Afghan army and police were killed and 58 others were wounded on April 5th. Meanwhile, 141 Taliban fighters were killed and 33 were wounded.
The day before the election, on April 4th, an attack by a rogue policeman left Pulitzer Prize winning AP reporter Anja Niedringhaus dead and injured her companion, Kathy Gannon. They were traveling with election workers delivering ballots in Khost province. Her photographs of Afghanistan and the region, like the one below featuring Kandahar's election street art, are a monument to her eye for beauty and humanity.
The physical security challenge in Afghanistan was exacerbated by the usual insurgent reinforcements sent from the Pakistani military intelligence apparatus, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). Afghan cartoonist Atiq Shahid portrays the problem:
The cartoon reads: "The nation of Afghanistan does not fear the disruption of the election process. Men and women, old and young will place their votes in the ballot boxes." In other words, go get 'em.
The initial vote tally will probably not be complete until sometime in May, determining whether a presidential contender won greater than 50% of the vote, or whether (more likely) there will be a run-off between the top two candidates. The clear loser in this election, however, is the Taliban. Let us close with a cartoon depicting…well…just that:

text: The Studio behind the awesome Bioshock titles is shutting down according to Ken Levine the creator of the smash hit game. In a blog post at the developer's webpage, director Ken Levine explains the reasons for the closure. "While I'm deeply proud of what we've accomplished together, my passion has turned to making a different kind of game than we've done before,†Levine writes. "To meet the challenge ahead, I need to refocus my energy on a smaller team with a flatter structure and a more direct relationship with gamers. In many ways, it will be a return to how we started: a small team making games for the core gaming audience.†But Levine isn't leaving Take-Two, the owner of publisher 2K Games of which Irrational is a subsidiary. He's moving on to "a smaller, more entrepreneurial endeavor†at the company, with just fifteen of the former Irrational Games staff on-board. The new studio will focus on "narrative-driven games for the core gamer that are highly replayable†all of which will be solely digitally distributed. Levine notes that he initially considered leaving Take-Two altogether and pursuing a start-up, but that the publisher convinced him to incubate his new project in-house. That's not surprising given the success and acclaim associated with Levine's IP. Its a sad day , Bioshock was an awesome game.

iTunes Review for the Audio Production Show
@Michand says: Awesome information!
5/5: As a podcaster I spend a lot of time learning about how to become even better at it, how to make a more tantalising show etc… One way of becoming more successful I think, is to really produce great sounding shows. And here's where The Audio Production Show and Music Radio Creative comes in; I've learned tons from them and I really enjoy the kind of fast pace American radio DJ-style of talking that the main host is using – it gives me energy. Great for those early drives to the airport to catch…

Almost half of children in Pakistani Christian schools are shoeless -survey
Almost half of the children in low-cost Christian schools in Pakistan have no shoes, and a fourth of them lack access to clean and potable water, says a survey commissioned by education charity Starfish Asia.
The recent survey reveals that half of Pakistani Christian schools have no playgrounds and 15 percent of the children there do not have notebooks. Thirteen percent of the surveyed schools also have no separate toilets for children and staff, the World Watch Monitor reports.
Aside from that, Starfish Asia found that 10 percent of the high schools have no blackboards and only 23 percent have internet access. Moreover, the survey discovered that only 5 percent of Pakistan's primary and middle schools have libraries.
"The Christian Schools Survey carries an urgency that cries out for the attention of educationalists, philanthropists and donor agencies, and gives insight into a deprived world that many Pakistanis, let alone other authorities, are unaware of," says the survey report.
Starfish Asia remarked that Christians in Pakistan are often treated as outcasts and are alienated from access to education, justice, and healthcare services. The report lauded the local entrepreneurs who have made up for the government and the church's failure to "provide schools that welcome its citizens."
A few months ago, Asia News published an article highlighting the hatred and intolerance incited against Christians and non-Muslims in Pakistan. The report mentioned a study by the National Commission for Justice and Peace which found that state-approved textbooks contain references inciting hatred against religious minorities in the country.
The government-sponsored curricula are to blame for the rise in religiously-motivated violence in four provinces in Pakistan, the study said.
NCJP executive director Cecil Shane Chaudhry has raised concern regarding their findings, saying this is already a national issue. In light of the situation, the official asked the Church to help promote the minorities' role in the country.

We've made it to Thursday! I'm linking up with Penny's Passion for another Thinking Out Loud Thursday! And what am I thinking about today? I'm thinking about Prince. Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of his passing and I'm still in shock that he's gone.
For those who might not know, I live in Minnesota. And Prince was from Minnesota. His death hit hard because to the rest of the world he was a celebrity but to us he was our neighbor. He WAS Minnesota. He was our Prince.
This week there has been more news released on the circumstances surrounding his death but at this point I feel it matters little. We know painkillers were involved. The other details I don't care about, it's not going to change the outcome.
I'll never forget that day last year. I was at my parents house for lunch and my dad had already gone back to work, but called us and said "they just said on the radio that Prince died" and both my mom and I went "What??" We turned on the TV and there they were reporting live from Paisley Park. I headed back to work and my radio station of choice was already playing Prince music non stop. My social media feeds were filled with people expressing their shock, sadness and horror.
Jen and I had tickets to Amy Schumer at the Target Center that evening which happened to be right across from First Avenue (his famous club from Purple Rain) and people had gathered around his star on the wall. Before the Amy show started Target Center was playing all Prince music and showed footage of him at the George Harrison tribute concert. Amy herself paid respects to him on stage. And then as we left that night we found ourselves in the middle of a huge block party celebrating his life. The mood was so uplifting and spiritual. It was peaceful. It's something I'll always remember the rest of my life.
Life has gone on of course. It always does after we lose one of the greats. And I think the greatest lesson we can all learn from Prince is to be yourself and who cares what others think. He was eclectic, bizarre, and flamboyant. He knew others thought he was odd, but he did his thing anyway. He didn't care what others thought. He rocked on with his bad self. And that is how we all should be. We miss you Prince. Hope you're riding in that Little Red Corvette in the sky and partying like it's 1999.
Linking up with Penny's Passion

Converting code requires manual effort. There's no such thing as a 64K varchar field in Oracle, so if you go with CLOB then you need to decide how to handle the data. I also recommend you Google for "database conversion" or something like that to see how "professional" conversion companies would do it.
I previously used Oracle Migration Workbench, but Oracle Migration Workbench has been replaced by Oracle SQL Developer. I have not tried converting SQL Server to Oracle using that tool.

Met Police to dig up land yards from apartment where Maddie vanished seven years ago
BRITISH police are to set about digging on an area of wasteland near the holiday apartment where Madeleine McCann went missing.
A team from the Metropolitan police will use ground penetrating radar equipment and sniffer dogs to search for clues at three different places in Praia da Luz.
They will first focus initial stage of the operation will concentrate on an area of empty land about the size of three football pitches next to the Ocean Club apartments where Madeleine went missing in 2007.
An area of nearby beach and two pieces of land in the countryside will also be investigated.
Last weekend, Madeleine's parents Kate and Gerry marked the anniversary of her disappearance on May 3.
It is understood that radar will be used to examine sites where earth has been moved over the last decade.
A source close the McCanns said it will be a 'heart-breaking and hugely emotional time' for the family.
'Police have assured Kate and Gerry that it does not mean they are specifically searching for her body,' he said.
Speaking before the plans were approved, a source close to the McCann family said: "Kate and Gerry have been told police will be conducting the searches in and around Praia da Luz as soon as they get the green light from Portuguese authorities.
"There will be earth diggers everywhere and it will look very dramatic and it will be a heartbreaking and hugely emotional time for Madeleine's poor parents.
"They don't believe police are acting on any new tip off.
"They just need to carry out their own digs, looking for any possible clues that Portuguese authorities may have missed on their previous searches.
"They are doing searches as much as to rule scenarios out as much as rule them in. They will be concentrating on several different places at different phases.
"Certain areas should have been searched properly way back by the Portuguese authorities but were not."
Kate and Gerry have been told police will be conducting the searches
Mr and Mrs McCann will not be travelling to Portugal but will be kept updated throughout the searches.
Saturday marked the seven-year anniversary of the child's disappearance, who vanished when she was just three-years-old.
And Mrs McCann said she just wants to know the truth even if it is the "worst case scenario".
She said: "If it was down to not knowing or finding out news that isn't what you want to hear?
"At the end of the day I can't change that. What would you rather?
"I'm not underestimating the blow of hearing bad news that you child had been killed, because obviously we're not going to go 'OK at least we know'.
"But I've spent hours thinking about that and, each time, I still come up thinking we need to know. Regardless we need to know."
She added: "But there is always the worst case scenario. That's always been a possibility and anyone who thinks that we're blinkered doesn't know us."
Scotland Yard recently released a picture of a long-sleeve T-shirt which may have been worn by the prime suspect in the Met Police's investigation.
The suspect is a child sex attacker who has been operating for years in the area of Portugal where Madeleine vanished in 2007.
The Met Police have previously announced there had been five attacks on British girls in and around Praia da Luz.
It includes a disturbing sexual assault on a girl age 10 in 2005, in the very resort from where Madeleine disappeared.
Scotland Yard are looking at 18 potentially linked cases of someone entering holiday homes.
