They have no solution handy, they are talking about Human rights violation, and in absence of human right violation or the cases of skirmishes and scrimmage, the conflict of Kashmir will evaporate into thin air as happened with the braid chopping cases, with the Darbar move, the braid chopping fear moved too and disappeared completely from the land of Kashmir.
The last week Hurriyat conglomerate called for a Kashmir wide strike against the atrocities committed by India's army on Kashmir civilians. Almost every day, there is a funeral and a Kashmiri is lowered to a grave. This one thing that is upsetting all of us.
The system intends to eliminate gun culture from the state but the way they have started initiating the process of elimination through mission all-out is unrealistic. The state wants people to join the mainstream and the other stream wants them to join the cause and stay determined to take the cause of Kashmir nationalism to the logical conclusion.
There is no methodology applied to this logic to secede Kashmir from the clutches of India. I was recently talking to one of the Kashmiri-American here in New York City, he said to me that there are three parts of Kashmir under the occupation of three nuclear power nations. One part is with Pakistan, another with China and this part, Kashmir is with India.
When we have already the acuity knowledge of the problem, we know the solution then why there is this Hartal nationalism that is considered will pave a way to secede Kashmir from the clutches of India. Why don't we talk Pakistan occupied Kashmir and China occupied Kashmir? Why are we so adamant to free India occupied Kashmir when there are two more parts of it occupied by the two more powerful nations?
Seriously, there are a couple of things going on here secretly. First of all, I want to address the fact that Kashmir is a political problem, not a religious problem. There is a freedom to spread Islam, there is a freedom to talk on the pulpit and sermonize the public on every Friday prayer. There is, however, a restriction on a grand mosque on Fridays that is due to public fear and to avoid law and order problem. Hurriyat cannot sell that argument, nonetheless, Geelani is not allowed to offer Friday prayer from the last couple of years because he is using inflammatory speeches of Jihad, which are unacceptable under the present geopolitical scenario. The world has changed from the last few decades, the dependence of state on the center was less then, than what is today?
We have declined agricultural growth in Kashmir, we are not cultivating much to fetch a good market in the states of India. We have apples, and other products that are no matter fetching us money, but the nature of the state is more based on consumerism than a producing. We are not producing goods, we have a decline in the market rate for six winter months. There are survival crises in Kashmir. Nobody talks on the governance issues, everyone is talking about the government and its statecraft to meddle in the process of seceding the Kashmiris from the clutch of India.
The other issue is condescension. The Indian media, telling us a different story and trying to malign the name of Kashmir. What are these Kashmiris based panelist doing on national media? They get paid an honorarium to appear on national televisions as a subject matter on Kashmir, and whatever they talk is already available on social media networking sites. They have not reached the conclusion of the problem. They are repeating the same old story of 1947, and 1975, they have not come out from that obsession. Sheikh Abdullah is the contemporary Marx the way he is cited and quoted on these television sets each night at prime time.
Whatever is happening in Pakistan, Afghanistan and in the other parts of South Asia is known to us all, but Mr Geelani sees it in a different way, he might feel that Pakistan will provide a genuine moral support to Kashmir through arms support or train the local insurgents to wage war against India but these details are is misleading and harmful to the public health.
This is the place of untold stories, how about the Kashmiri Pandits, will it be possible to free a land where a community is missing or living in as an internally displaced community by taking a unilateral decision on their behalf? Maybe they have a different thought on Kashmir, Sheikh Abdullah's rise was no small thing, and he gained the trust of all communities and then took a decision which was acceptable to all. Read his Naya Kashmir document, everything is jotted down in that document that is the vision document for Kashmir. Does any leader provide any such documents to envision Kashmir's future?
Hartal nationalism and blood will not secede us. There are three nuclear power nations, if you want to compete Mr Geelani to these nations, you have to build Kashmir technologically sound and academically strong. There will be a time when robots will replace army? How will you cater that situation? When local Kashmiris will be fighting a robot in opposite with no emotions but working on a button to destroy humans on earth especially in Kashmir as a tool of counterinsurgency? Will Hartal nationalism works that time? The time of fighting a war with hands is primitive, the time is to fight a war with mind.
Do you have a vision or you will be with this Hartal Nationalism? The choice is yours and I have a firm request to please save this Kashmir or poison us all at one time so that we will not see any of our boys dying or getting consumed to this dirty war. Our eyes are parched and there are no tears anymore, otherwise tell me the place where there is no discrimination?

The Red Dog
• 189 Hunter St W • Peterborough, ON
Doors: 9:00PM
| Show Starts: 10:00PM
| Ages 19+
Featuring: Jullian Taylor Band, Paper Shakers
Event type: Ages 19+
Julian Taylor is a Canadian singer-songwriter. Formerly associated with the band Staggered Crossing, he has continued to record and perform as a solo artist. He is a prolific artist who has released nine studio albums since 2001. Three with Staggered Crossing, Four with his band JTB and two on his own.
A Toronto music scene staple and a musical chameleon, Julian Taylor is used to shaking it up. With his songs being placed in such TV shows as Haven, Private Eyes, Kim's Convenience and Elementary, his versatility as a songwriter is signature; one minute he's on stage playing with his band spilling out electrified rhythm and blues glory, and the next he's featured at a folk festival delivering a captivating solo singer-songwriter set reminiscent of Jim Croce.
Taylor doesn't fit in a box. He never has—and more power to him. It puts him in a similar situation as some of his musical heroes, old and new, like Los Lobos or Michael Kiwanuka. It's tempting to call his music R&B, except that means something very different in 2018 than it did in the days of Curtis Mayfield, Bill Withers, and Van Morrison.
Beautifully blended soulful blues, rhythmic soul, modern rock riffs and rootsy folk make the music of Julian Taylor an experience something worth putting your busy life on hold for; even if it is just for a few moments

Amethyst: February's Stone of the Month
14 Feb
When February rolls around, most of us are finally regaining a kind of equilibrium after the mad dash of family-feasting-holidays followed by the inevitably noble new diet plan, better habits, and ambitious goals for the new year.
What better gem to herald in this new month than the Amethyst, the expression of earth that many of us first encountered in geography class, not as a perfect, polished centerpiece for jewelry, but as a cluster of dramatically jutting frosted white, clear, and purple crystals.
Amethyst is one of those few crystals that is as equally beautiful in its raw, rough form as in its finished state. Some larger pieces are more often valued by collectors as whole, unrefined pieces than they are when they are broken down and polished.
So as we enter this new year, perhaps slightly beaten back by how hard those New Year's resolutions actually are to keep, we can celebrate the beauty of our "roughness" with this unique stone, perfect in all its forms.
Some Facts about Amethyst
In modern times, Amethyst is beloved for its equal affordability and beauty and, of course, its signature purple color. Amethyst has been found featured in man-made adornment dating as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and was once prized as one of the top five precious stones, until large deposits were discovered in Brazil. In Tibet, it was considered sacred to the Buddha and used to make prayer beads. It symbolized royalty in the European Middle Ages, and was considered one of the Cardinal gems in the Old World.
The greatest stores of Amethyst are found in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil, hidden within large geodes encased in volcanic rocks. The best varieties of Amethyst hail from Brazil as well as Siberia, Sri Lanka, and the far East. Its hardness is the same as quartz, which makes it perfect for jewelry.
Amethyst's Special Significance
Scientists say that we can thank irradiation, iron impurities, and the presence of trace elements for Amethyst's enchanting violet hue. However, the Greeks had a different story. The name "Amethyst" comes from the Greek word ametusthos ("not intoxicated,") and derives from a legend in which Bacchus, the wine god, grew angry over an insult and promised that the next person he saw would be eaten by his tigers. When a beautiful young woman named Amethyst happened along on her way to worship at the shrine of the goddess Diana, the tigers attacked her. She beseeched Diana for protection and, in return, was turned into a clear white crystal. Regretful and ashamed, Bacchus poured the wine of his grapes over the crystal as an offering, forever lending it its purple tinge.
Believed to ward off drunkenness, Greeks and Romans often incorporated Amethyst into decorations on their wine goblets. In addition to intoxication, Amethyst was believed to ward off over-indulgence and to promote a clear head when conducting business affairs and in battle, perfect for departing from our New Year's celebrations and keeping our focus on this year's goals. As the birth-stone for February, it's also great for celebrating Valentine's day, as it is associated with St. Valentine and faithful love.
Amethyst is currently considered a source of spirituality and peace, and its abilities to inspire a heightened state of meditation. It is said to have a high frequency and energetic vibration, capable of purifying one's aura of negative attachments or energy. It is also said to stimulate the Third Eye, Crown, and Etheric Chakras for enhanced cognitive, intuitive, and psychic ability.
Ring in your February by giving yourself or your loved one this precious "wine-kissed" gift to celebrate clarity, loyalty, and this splendid journey we are all on, from "rough" to "perfect." Check out our designs for some inspiration.

As the CEO of Yum Brands from 1999 to 2015, David Novak turned a PepsiCo spinoff into a global leader in the fast-food industry through the brands KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut.
When he retired from his position as chairman of Yum in May, he left behind a legacy of 41,000 restaurants across 125 countries and a market capitalization of about $34 billion.
Novak recently visited Business Insider in New York, where we discussed his new book, "O Great One!" and the greatest lessons from his career.
He explained that when he became COO of PepsiCo in 1994, he was coming from a marketing background that may have been distinguished, but he also needed to learn the company's operations from the ground up.
In one of his other books, the 2007 business memoir "The Education of an Accidental CEO," Novak wrote that this period of adjustment taught him two fundamental lessons of adapting to a new job that are just as relevant if you're a summer intern or a CEO.
Get the fundamentals down before trying to make an impression
When you take on a new role, whether within your organization or at a new company, it can be tempting to want to immediately make a splash with an ambitious project. Novak's advice: Relax. Master the basics of the job before you stretch yourself beyond your limits.
"I have been fortunate to the extent that I have always gone into a new job in something of a turnaround situation," he wrote, explaining that his instinct was to immediately embark on an exciting new campaign, but soon realized that he needed a grasp on the fundamentals, "like how to get the trucks out of the warehouse and how to make sure there's enough product on the trucks when they leave."
"New marketing initiatives are sexy, but if you don't have the nuts and bolts of an operation in place and the machinery humming along, then you're not going to drive more sales and make any money," he wrote.
Learn as much as possible from your colleagues
Novak said that while transitioning from a strictly marketing role to an operations role was difficult, he found all the answers he needed within the company. "Every company is filled with experts," he wrote — it's just a matter of acting without hesitation when you need to know something that you can't figure out on your own.
For example, in his role as COO he learned about the company's history from a 25-year veteran, the customers' wants and needs from the customer-service team, and how to solve problems with delivery trucks from the drivers themselves.
"I always tell people that the best thing about being new is that you have carte blanche to ask a ton of questions," he wrote. "(My favorite is 'What would you do if you had my job?') The trick is to be secure enough to keep asking questions after you've been on the job for a while, when some people might be thinking that you should already know the answers."
And this applies to leaders, as well, he explained — perhaps even more so. It's why his latest book, "O Great One!" is solely focused on the power of recognition.
"Asking questions is actually a great way to let people know that they're needed and that you value what they have to say," he wrote in "The Education of an Accidental CEO."
"And I've learned time and again: the most powerful way to motivate someone is to listen to them."

In Year 4 children are encouraged to work with increasing independence. Children are encouraged to choose their own resources to complete tasks. They use the displays to assist them with their learning eg. using spelling displays, number facts, ideas for writing inspiration and examples of shared pieces of work.
Day to Day Routines in Year 4
- Home reading books are changed when your child needs to change their book.
- P.E. takes place on Thursday and Friday afternoon. The Friday session will be swimming. Please ensure your child's name is on every item of clothing.

- Spelling sessions will take place daily. Spellings will be given out at the end of each half term. There will be no weekly tests.
Over the year the children will explore key topics within Science. Some of the topics will link with the current enquiry being covered, however some will run as a separate enquiry. The topics stated in the new National Curriculum for Year 4 are as follows:
- Living things and their habitats-How can living things be classified and grouped?
- Animals including humans-How does the digestive system work? What is a food chain?
- States of matter-How do materials change state?
- Sound-How are sounds made? What patterns are there in sounds?
- Electricity-How are circuits made? Why are some materials insulators and some conductors?
Enquiry Curriculum Themes
Across the year the children will cover a range of enquiries, which can be seen below and one whole school enquiry each term. Click here to download a detailed subject overview of the year 4 curriculum.

The cyclospora outbreak in Texas has now sickened at least 230 people as of August 15, 2017. The outbreak began mid June 2017.
People are sick in 45 counties in that state, and seven are ill in "county pending or unknown." The counties with the most cyclosporiasis cases include Bexar (30), Dallas (12), Fort Bend (10), Harris (59), and Travis (20).
Public health officials have not yet identified a common source in this outbreak. Past cyclospora food poisoning outbreaks have been linked to imported fresh produce, such as cilantro, mesclun, raspberries, basil, and snow peas. Officials are interviewing patients and asking them about the foods they ate the weeks before they got sick.
Cyclospora oocytes sicken people after they have been shed in feces. The illness is not spread person-to-person. The immature oocysts need one week under favorable conditions to sporulate, or become infectious. People usually get sick after eating food imported from tropical or subtropical regions, or after living or traveling in those parts of the world.
The symptoms of cyclosporiasis include watery diarrhea that can be frequent and explosive, loss of appetite, weight loss, stomach cramps and pain, bloating, increased gas, nausea, fatigue, vomiting, body aches, headache, and fever. These symptoms can recur for months at a time. The illness can be treated with a combination of antibiotics, but if a patient is allergic to sulfa drugs, there is no highly effective alternative treatment.
Public health officials are telling consumers to thoroughly wash all produce before eating it. But the oocysts can be very difficult to remove from produce, especially herbs and leafy greens. Cooking will kill the parasite. Some experts think that peeling fruits and vegetables can make them safer to eat.
You can also prevent this infection by only drinking water from a safe source, and by washing your hands well after using the bathroom, changing diapers, and taking care of someone who is sick, especially with a diarrheal illness. If someone in your household is sick, disinfect soiled clothes or soiled sheets.
And if you do get sick with these symptoms, see your doctor. Resting and making sure you stay hydrated are crucial for recovery.

Anyway, it's not the quantity of Singapore's censorship that I want to address, but the quality. This past Friday night we went to see Sex and the City and even after all the signs and warnings about "no one under 18 being admitted," it was clearly censored.
While we don't know exactly what was cut, we know exactly where it was cut from. The edit was almost comical. In the middle of a sex scene, there was a jump in the soundtrack and the image went a few sprocket holes out of frame for a second. What the…?
Then, 45 minutes later, it happened again. Start sex scene and…pop…jump. Ugly, ugly splice.
Yes, I object to censorship. But, if you have been to see a movie with me, you know I am super-sensitive to theatrical presentation. I was way more offended by the poor quality of the splices than the fact that material had been excised.
Cut between the frames people! Between the frames! I wonder where those sections of film are now and I wonder if they get put back when the prints are returned to the studio.

Hannah Lamont and Alexander Ille, two graduate students in the Chiropractic and Anatomy programs, have collaborated with D'Youville Biology faculty Stacy Ruvio, Ph.D. to conduct research on the identification of a novel variant of Golli myelin basic protein BG21 in the uniquely neuroprotective white-footed mouse. The research was published in Neuroscience Letters in February 2019.
According to the authors, the white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) lives nearly three times longer than the regular house mouse, is asymptomatic to various disease-states such as Lyme disease, and maintains a highly preserved nervous system throughout life. The main question is, why? To help determine the answer, the authors used computational research to examine myelin basic protein (MBP), a group of proteins that plays various roles in generating and maintaining the health of myelin sheath, a protective covering of neurons. Their research suggests that a specific form of MBP within the white-footed mouse has an altered structure in comparison to that of the house mouse, potentially playing a role in its longevity and neuroprotection. In humans, a similar version of this protein is found throughout the brain, and disturbance of this protein is observed in neurodegenerative disorders such as multiple sclerosis. The authors' discovery contributes to the understanding of longevity and neurodegeneration, and their data add to the continuously-evolving research and understanding of the MBP family of proteins. They are continuing their research, analyzing a molecule implicated in Parkinson's disease in hopes of better understanding the disease at the molecular level.

Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
a tip from Stacy Ruvio, ITI Faculty Fellow for Scholarship of Teaching and Learning
April 1, 2019–D'Youville's MBA-604 Human Resource Management course receives nationally recognized Quality Matters Certification Mark for meeting course design standards in an Official Quality Matters peer review.
Quality Matters (QM), a nationally recognized, faculty-centered, peer review process that certifies the quality of online courses, has recognized D'Youville's Susan Kowalewski's commitment to quality assurance for designing a course MBA-604 Human Resource Management that meets Quality Matters standards.
Quality Matters has developed a widely respected set of standards for the design of effective online courses and a rigorous, faculty peer review process for applying these standards to existing courses. Through this process, reviewers provide instructors and instructional design teams with insight and recommendations that increase learner engagement, retention and satisfaction, and, ultimately, learner achievement.
"We wanted an outside organization to provide our course review, and Quality Matters has the expertise to certify online courses for quality."
About Your Organization
D'Youville uses the Quality Matters Rubric as a guideline in all course development and revision. The QM Rubric and process fit perfectly into our mission and strategic plan of providing quality online courses to students.
About Quality Matters
Quality Matters (QM) is the global organization leading quality assurance in online and innovative digital teaching and learning environments. It provides a scalable quality assurance system for online and blended learning used within and across organizations. When you see QM Certification Marks on courses or programs, it means they have met QM Course Design Standards or QM Program Review Criteria in a rigorous review process.
Last month, we addressed the topic of using video in online courses. Whether or not you've created videos for your online courses, though, it's likely you've used presentation software like PowerPoint to provide a visual aid during a lecture or discussion. While such software is useful for organizing your thoughts and assembling images, far too many of us have encountered "death by PowerPoint": sitting through presentations with silly transitions, imagery that doesn't support learning goals, or text clearly meant to be a memory aid for the presenter. In this workshop, we'll review some of the cognitive psychology behind using presentation software effectively in an educational context (which we discussed briefly last month) and distill that research into best practices for how to build presentations that support information retention and engagement. We'll conclude with some PowerPoint-specific tips to facilitate the practical implementation of these best practices.
Inclusive teaching is an approach to pedagogy that strives to create a learning environment where all students can learn regardless of their identity or background (Ambrose, Bridges, DiPietro, Lovett, & Norman, 2010)…

Patient had an old crown on the upper left front tooth which no longer fit or matched his teeth. Replaced one porcelain fused to metal crown to an all porcelain crown
Upper and Lower Complete Denture
Upper complete denture Lower veneers and posterior implants
Before: 3 Unit bridge with chipped porcelain molar (supporting metal showing on molar tooth), poor enamel color match to patient's natural teeth, and poor fit around the patient's gumline.
After: Replaced Bridge with an All Porcelain Bridge. The new bridge now also matches the patient's natural tooth color and was designed to properly fit around the gumline. Proper fit aids in decreasing decay and the ease of the patient's ability to clean around a bridge.

Thinking of building an ADU in Portland? Be sure to check out our "ADU 101" and "How Much Does It Cost To Build An ADU?" posts as you're getting started.
Meanwhile, here are answers to a few frequently asked questions, drawn directly from the City of Portland's ADU Program Guide (as of May 2015), a must read for anyone considering an ADU project.
Q: Is now a good time to build an ADU in Portland?
A: Yes. The City of Portland is waiving system development charges (SDCs) for ADU projects whose building permit application is submitted before July 31, 2018 (provided that occupancy begins before June 30, 2019). This is a big deal, as the cost of SDCs can easily reach five figures.
Q: How big can my ADU be?
A: The maximum size is no more than 75% of the living area of the house or 800sf, whichever is less.
Q: How tall can my ADU be?
A: No more than 18 feet high.
Q: How much space can my detached ADU take up?
A: No more than 15% of the total site area.
Q: What are the setback requirements for my ADU?
A: Detached ADUs must be set back 60 feet from the front lot line or 6 feet behind the house.
Q: Do I have to provide parking for my ADU?
A: No additional parking is required.
Q: Do either the main house or the ADU need to be owner occupied?
A: Nope!
Q: How much does it cost to build an ADU in Portland?
A: See our post, "How Much Does It Cost To Build An ADU?"
Q: What else should I consider?
A: See our post, "ADU 101."
Good luck with your project. Please contact us if you'd like us to build it!Back to Field Notes

Watch The Three Musketeers
The Three Musketeers is an action-adventure film that was released in 2011. It was directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, and it was written by Andrew Davies. The film stars Logan Lerman as D'Artagnan, while Matthew Macfadyen, Ray Stevenson, and Luke Evans star the Three Musketeers. The supporting cast consists of Milla Jovovich, Christoph Waltz, Madds Mikkelsen, and Orlando Bloom. The film received a PG-13 rating for violence.
The story begins at the beginning of the 17th century. The Three Musketeers (Athos, Porthos, and Aramis) are working with Milady de Winter to steal airship blueprints. When they get the job done, Milady takes the blueprints and gives it to the Duke of Buckingham. When they return home, the Musketeers are forced to break up. At this time, D'Artagnan is introduced as leaving home to go join the Musketeers.
However, he is not aware that they have been disbanded. When he arrives in Paris he first meets the Musketeers and angers all three of them. This causes him to challenge them to duels. When the first duel is set to begin, D'Artagnan realizes that these three men are the Musketeers he aspires to be. This realization sparks the Musketeers to reunite.
At this point they are brought before the King and Queen of France. The Queen is impressed with them, and they are invited to a party later that evening. Also, the Duke of Buckingham is going to the party. He arrives on an airship that was inspired by the blueprints they were stealing earlier. Meanwhile, there is a plan brewing at the party to frame the Queen as having an affair with the Duke of Buckingham.
This will cause the King of France to declare war on England. Someone finds out about the plan, and asks the Three Musketeers and D'Artagnan to help thwart the plan.

Today the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa issued a preliminary injunction, preventing enforcement of the so-called "Ag Gag 2.0" law while the lawsuit that seeks to permanently block it proceeds. The court also denied the state's attempt to have the lawsuit dismissed.
Pending final resolution of the case, the court's decision will allow lawful undercover investigations and reporting of agricultural facilities to resume once again in Iowa, allowing undercover reporters and others to document problems such as animal abuse and worker and food safety violations.
The law temporarily blocked today is Iowa's second ag gag law. It's very similar to an earlier ag gag law passed by the Iowa Legislature—Ag Gag 1.0—which also criminalized lawful investigations and protected speech at factory farms, slaughterhouses, and puppy mills. Ag Gag 1.0 was struck down by the same federal court last January. Other federal courts have similarly struck down ag gag laws in Idaho and Utah as unconstitutional.
In March, Iowa lawmakers enacted Ag Gag 2.0, which creates the new crime of "agricultural production facility trespass" — making it illegal for a person to gain access to an agricultural production facility through deception if the person intends to cause an "injury" to the "business interest" of the facility. Since someone who finds and makes public violations of food safety protocols, environmental protections, workers' rights, and animal welfare laws can damage a business' reputation, Ag Gag 2.0 unconstitutionally stifles free speech.
Both lawsuits were brought by a coalition of public interest groups composed of the ACLU of Iowa, the Animal Legal Defense Fund, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), Public Justice, the Center for Food Safety, Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement, and Bailing Out Benji.
Undercover investigations have a long, crucial history in this country and are an important source of information on practices in animal agriculture. But back in 2012, when Iowa's first ag gag law was passed, it achieved its goal of suppressing undercover investigations in animal agriculture and they effectively ceased.

Note: Flickr recently went through a massive server transition, and portions of the service are still being worked on. Among the problems is that mosaic thumbnails on Collections are not visible, which means my primary page here for showing groupings by year are missing those thumbnails. The links do work—only the thumbnails are missing, so you can still navigate into a year to view those photos.

The First Luxury Hotel in Europe with 3 Michelin-Starred Restaurants
Please note that I receive compensation for many links on this blog. American Express and other banks are advertising partners of this site. Read my Advertiser Disclosure policy to learn more.
Michelin stars are symbols of fine dining quality, bestowed upon restaurants after food reviews by the anonymous Michelin staff.
In the 2017 Michelin Guide, a single hotel in Europe is home of not one restaurant with Michelin stars, or even two. All three of the hotel's restaurants have been awarded Michelin stars. Seen as the epitome of culinary excellence by many, Michelin stars are such a huge deal that chefs have reportedly cried when losing them and others work nonstop with the hope of getting even one.
The winning hotel with three Michelin starred restaurants? The Four Seasons Hotel George V, with 3 stars at restaurant Le Cinq, 1 star at restaurant Le George, and 1 star at l'Orangerie.
.@fsparis devient le 1er Palace d'Europe à offrir 3 restaurants étoilés au @guideMichelinFR, un voyage culinaire sans précédent #fsparis pic.twitter.com/1APwtuN8BT
— FS George V Paris (@FSParis) February 9, 2017
With a total of 5 stars collectively, for many foodies the hotel is a destination worth the trip just to enjoy a meal at one of the restaurants.
Have you eaten at a Michelin-starred restaurant before? If so, was it worth it?

Today has not been good. I've struggled with God all day.
I'm scared God, do you see us?
Why is this happening?
Have you ever been at the point when you're just out of things to pray? There's just nothing else to be said really. Have you ever sat down intent on hearing God's voice and instead, heard nothing? Or birds chirping. Or horns blaring. Or your air conditioning running. Have you ever felt like you're sitting at the bottom of a dried up well? You can't go down any farther but you certainly can't get up either.
If you're like me, your emotions are running wild. You cry, you get angry, you've got no patience with your children, your husband is the easiest target for your frustration. You want to eat about 15 duplex cookies. Not because they're good, but because they're there. You're just a big emotional, frustrated, tired, overwhelmed mess.
On days like today, in situations like ours, on paths like this, there's only one thing I can ask from God. Truth. I need your Truth.
I'm scared God, do you see us?
El Roi- God is the God who sees.
Alright, I'm giving it to you.
Why is this happening?
El Shaddai- God is All Sufficient.
Alright, Your will be done.
El Gibbor- God is a Mighty God.
Alright, I'm trusting you.
Dear God, El Roi, El Shaddai, El Gibbor,
Thank you for seeing me. Thank you for being enough for me. Thank you for being my Mighty God. Open my eyes to your truth. Open my eyes so I can see you today. I pray that your will would be done in my life. I'm tired, I'm scared, I'm hurting, I feel wrung out like a sponge, but I pray that you would empty me of anything that would keep me from being filled with you. Thank You for loving me.

Restaurant will be closed Thursday 1/30 for 1 day only. Planning and acting on the beginning stages of a small remodel. See if we can make the interior a little more comfortable! It's hard making more space out no space but we'll do our very best! I'll be back at it tomorrow. I should have calzones on the menu as well as a meatball sub! Smoking a batch of St. Louis Ribs over the next couple days for next week with a sage and rosemary infused rub! I don't think they'll be anything short of yummy.

A little bit of googling and quite a few options were suggested including reinstalling the OS (Nah, I was not planning to do that though). But this solution saved my day:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes]
"MS Shell Dlg 2"="Tahoma"
"MS Shell Dlg"="Tahoma"
Copy the above content into a text editor and save it with some name and make the extension as .reg - you can then double click this to set Tahoma back as the default font and get back the original Windows XP settings.
Or you can download the one I created from here.
Be careful with editing the registry, if you are not sure of what you are doing, i would advise you to take a backup of the registry before proceeding.

Rationale and ObjectivesPulmonary involvement in inflammatory bowel disease may reflect the common embryonic origin of the gastrointestinal tract and the bronchial tree. No studies have compared pulmonary high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings between ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn disease (CD). This study aimed to assess the relationship between pulmonary HRCT findings and inflammatory bowel disease activity and to compare HRCT findings between UC and CD.Materials and MethodsWe retrospectively identified 601 consecutive patients (350 with UC and 251 with CD) who had undergone chest HRCT examinations at our institutions between April 2004 and April 2016. Parenchymal abnormalities, enlarged lymph nodes, and pleural effusion were evaluated on HRCT.ResultsOne hundred sixty-seven patients (94 men, 73 women; aged 12–86 years, mean: 47.2 years) with UC and 93 patients (61 men, 32 women; aged 12–71 years, mean: 37.9 years) with CD had abnormal findings on chest HRCT. The HRCT findings of UC and CD mainly consisted of centrilobular nodules (in 49.1% and 45.2% of cases, respectively) and bronchial wall thickening (in 31.7% and 54.8%, respectively). There was no relationship between HRCT findings and disease activity. Bronchial wall thickening was significantly more frequent in patients with CD than in those with UC (P < .001).ConclusionThe main chest HRCT findings in UC and CD are centrilobular nodules and bronchial wall thickening. There are differences in HRCT findings between UC and CD.

I now have heard several stories about Tankadins quitting, because they are fed up with all the
I know have the feeling that we need to start all over again, to prove ourselves. Some tankadins, can't handle that again, and are shelving their paladins. I however, will, if needed, be one of those, that will prove, Paladins can Tank, and even outtank every other class, because we are Paladins, throw something negative at us, and we will turn it into something positive for us. We did that in the past, we are doing it now, and we will continue doing that.

Indus Treaty: Why India Cannot Afford to Fight Fire With Water

Although the FAA has its own set of rules for "Flying Under the Influence," professional and casual pilots can also lose their aircraft licenses as a result of alcohol-related motor vehicle offenses and failures to timely report related arrests, charges and dispositions within particular time frames.
For example, the FAA will routinely deny or revoke an application for a pilot's license in cases where the applicant has more than one alcohol-related incident within a span of three years.
One of the most common problems for pilots who have been arrested or charged with an alcohol-related driving offense is the failure to timely report the incident to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Despite various warnings, this is perhaps the most frequently sanctioned action by the FAA. Many pilots mistakenly believe that such charges won't be discovered; others are simply unaware of all of their reporting requirements or incorrectly believe that compliance with one reporting requirement is sufficient to satisfy them all. Nor, as some believe, are the reporting requirements nullified by a successful plea agreement or acquittal at trial.
Under the provisions of Federal Aviation Regulation 14 CFR Parts 61 and 67, the FAA has the authority to revoke, suspend, or cancel a pilot's license for a "motor vehicle action," which includes any arrest or conviction for a DUI or DWAI, as well as any administrative action in which the driver's license is suspended or revoked by a State agency, such as Colorado's Department of Motor Vehicles.
The provisions of 14 CFR 61.15 require all pilots to send a "notification letter" to the FAA's Security and Investigations Division in Oklahoma City within 60 calendar days of the effective date of any alcohol-related arrest, conviction or administrative action. But this is only the first step in compliance. In addition, each event, conviction or administrative action requires a separate notification letter. What does this mean? It means that if a pilot's driver's license is suspended by the State of Colorado for failing a blood or breath test, or refusing to test as required by Colorado's Express Consent Law, and if the person is later convicted in a district or county court of an alcohol-related offense involving the same incident, the pilot is required to notify the FAA of both "events" even though the matters will be treated by the FAA as a "single incident" for other purposes, such as determining whether the offender has sustained "repeated offenses."
In addition, FAA regulations require the reporting of certain alcohol-related incidents that may fall outside the usual ambit of State driver's license regulations, such as "boating while intoxicated" or the intoxicated operation of other recreational transports.
Thus, the reporting obligations can go well beyond the actual sanctions imposed by State law.
There is virtually no chance that such incidents will fly under the radar of the FAA. The FAA routinely and systematically reviews various databases, containing arrest and conviction records, such as the National Driver Register. If you fail to include any of the required data, or falsify any information, your FAA pilot and medical certificates will be revoked.
The reporting requirements don't stop there. The FAA requires all pilots to sign and submit a medical certificate attesting to their fitness to fly. When these certificates expire, applicants for renewal must submit to a flight physical before a designated physician. The certification requires the applicant to report all criminal convictions, whether alcohol-related or not, as well as all motor vehicle, alcohol-related convictions and any administrative actions in which the driver's license was suspended or revoked. It also requires the applicant to report any alcohol evaluations, counseling or education sessions that the person was required to attend as a part of any legal disposition.
Depending on the BAC level of any reported test (or a refusal to allow police to take a sample if authorized by the express consent law), the medical examiner may deny the issuance of a medical certificate and redirect the application to the Aeromedical Certification Department, which, in turn, can impose additional requirements, such as completion of a substance abuse program, before they will reconsider the issuance of a medical certificate.
Any pilot subjected to an arrest for any alcohol-related driving, boating or snowmobiling offense would be well-advised to seek an attorney at the earliest opportunity.
