"He was like an octopus. His hands were everywhere. It was an assault."
"Then he jams his penis inside her for the first time in more than sixteen months. Ivana is terrified… It is a violent assault."
Donald Trump introduced his presidential campaign to the world with a slur against Mexican immigrants, accusing them of being "rapists" and bringing crime into the country. "I mean somebody's doing it!... Who's doing the raping?" Donald Trump said, when asked to defend his characterization.
"It wasn't a sexual come-on. I don't know why he did it. It was like just to prove that he could do it and nothing would happen,"
"A lot of people can be helped if this is properly handled."

"I am going to be dating her in 10 years. Can you believe it?"
Chicago Tribune archive: Donald Trump once told 14-year-old girls, "In a couple of years, I'll be dating you" https://t.co/sJNjpxiMQl pic.twitter.com/0wPCyQNr3N— Chicago Tribune (@chicagotribune) October 13, 2016
"After 45 minutes she came over to my table, almost in tears, and pleaded with me to move her. It seems that Trump had spent his entire time with her assaying the 'tits' and legs of the other female guests..."
"He pushed me up against the wall, and had his hands all over me and tried to get up my dress again, and I had to physically say: 'What are you doing? Stop it.'"
Jill Harth speaks out about alleged groping by Donald Trump
This article was originally published on 20 July 2016. A woman at the centre of sexual assault allegations against Donald Trump has spoken for the first time in detail about her personal experience with the billionaire tycoon who this week became the Republican nominee for president.
"...he opens the overcoat, unzips his pants, and, forcing his fingers around my private area, thrusts his penis halfway — or completely, I'm not certain — inside me."
"It was the most offensive scene I've ever been a part of. I wanted to get the heck out of there."
"I was sick — anorexia and bulimia for five years. I was 18. My personality wasn't created yet. I was just a girl."
"I'll go backstage before a show and everyone's getting dressed. I'm allowed to go in, because I'm the owner of the pageant and therefore I'm inspecting it…. 'Is everyone okay?' They're standing there with no clothes. 'Is everybody okay?' And you see these incredible-looking women, and so I sort of get away with things like that."
"He kissed me directly on the lips. I thought, 'Oh my God, gross.' He was married to Marla Maples at the time. I think there were a few other girls that he kissed on the mouth. I was like 'Wow, that's inappropriate.'"
"He said 'Oh, come on' and he was angry. He really grabbed me and he was holding me very tight to kiss me on the mouth. He was strong, and he really caught me off guard and off balance, literally, because I had these heels on which I don't always wear. I was able to turn my head a little so he didn't get my whole mouth."
Another Woman Comes Forward with Story of Donald Trump Forcibly Trying to Kiss Her
When Cathy Heller saw the video of Donald Trump telling Billy Bush how he just starts kissing beautiful women without their permission, Heller thought, "'That's him, that's exactly how he acted, it happened to me,' " she tells PEOPLE.
"He then walked up to me and reached his right arm and grabbed my right arm, then his hand touched the right inside of my breast. I was in shock. I flinched. [He asked me], 'Don't you know who I am? Don't you know who I am?'"
Another woman accuses Trump, says he touched her breast
A yoga instructor and lifestyle coach came forward Thursday with claims that Donald Trump had inappropriate sexual contact with her, becoming at least the 10th woman to make such allegations against the GOP nominee. Flanked by women's rights attorney Gloria Allred, a Hillary Clinton supporter who has represented other women with sexual misconduct claims against Trump, Karena Virginia shared her story, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"He'd hug you just a little low on your back [and give you] a squeeze that your creepy uncle would. The time that he walked through the dressing rooms was really shocking. We were all naked."
"I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life."
"He just came strolling right in. There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing or anything. Some girls were topless. Other girls were naked."
"I've known Paris Hilton from the time she's 12, her parents are friends of mine, and the first time I saw her she walked into the room and I said, 'Who the hell is that?' At 12 I wasn't interested. I've never been into that … I've always stuck around that 25 category … but she was beautiful."
"All of a sudden I felt a grab, a little nudge. I think it's Ken's camera bag, that was my first instinct. I turn around and there's Donald. He sort of looked away quickly. I quickly turned back, facing Ray Charles, and I'm stunned."
"He walked me to the elevator, and I said goodbye. I was thinking 'oh, he's going to hug me', but when he pulled my face in and gave me a smooch. I was like 'o.k.' I didn't know how to act. I was just a little taken aback and probably turned red. And I then I get into the elevator and thought 'huh, Donald Trump just kissed me on the lips.'"
"He kissed me directly on the mouth. It was so inappropriate. I was so upset that he thought I was so insignificant that he could do that."
"We walked into that room alone, and Trump shut the door behind us. I turned around, and within seconds he was pushing me against the wall and forcing his tongue down my throat."
"You know, I'm automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything."
"He eyed me like a piece of meat. I was shocked and disgusted. I have never felt so objectified. I left the meet-and-greet hoping that this would be my one and only encounter with him."
"When we entered the room, he grabbed each of us tightly in a hug and kissed each one of us without asking permission. He was wearing pajamas. A bodyguard was also present. He asked me about details on my job as an adult film star — about shooting porn, and he also asked us about our personal relationships and whether we were married or single."
Adult Film Star Jessica Drake Accuses Trump of Sexual Misconduct
Adult movie star Jessica Drake became the 11th woman to accuse Donald Trump of inappropriate sexual misconduct during a press conference in Los Angeles on Saturday, October 22. Flanked by civil rights attorney Gloria Allred , Drake spoke publicly about her claims against the Republican presidential candidate, 70, for the first time in front of reporters on Saturday afternoon.
"Trump stood right next to me and suddenly he squeezed my butt. He really grabbed my butt. I don't think anybody saw it but I flinched and thought: 'What is happening?' Somebody told me there that Trump liked me because I looked like Melania when she was younger. It left me disgusted."
Former Miss Finland is 12th woman to accuse Donald Trump of sexual assault
A former beauty queen has become the 12th woman to openly accuse Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump of sexual assault. Jessica Drake: porn star is 11th woman to allege Trump sexual misconduct Ninni Laaksonen, a former Miss Finland in the Miss Universe competition that Trump once owned, alleged in an interview with the Finnish newspaperIlta-Sanomat that Trump groped her before an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman in 2006.
"Trump came to me and started kissing me open-mouthed as he was pulling me toward him. I walked away and I sat down on a chair…. He then asked me to sit next to him. I complied, and he then grabbed my shoulder and began kissing me again very aggressively and placed his hand on my breast."
"I had witnessed Donald Trump tell managers many times while he was visiting the club that restaurant hostesses were 'not pretty enough' and that they should be fired and replaced with more attractive women."
"I've tried to let it go. You want to move on with your life. I don't sleep. I wake up at 4 in the morning looking at the news. I feel guilty. The only thing I did was show up for work one day."
"This $35,000 check was one of 11 check installments that was paid throughout the year -- while he was President. The President of the United States thus wrote a personal check for the payment of hush money as part of a criminal scheme to violate campaign finance laws."

By Salahuddin Bin Hisham
THE new Pakatan Harapan government is almost a month old but the establishment of a full Cabinet is still work in progress and the arduous job of making the promised New Malaysia a reality has just begun.
Sooner or later, the new government will have to deal with the potentially explosive issue of Haj subsidy for pilgrims under the Lembaga Tabung Haji (LTH).
For now, the new government is trying hard to fulfil its promises made in the 14th General Election manifesto.
Many inside and outside the Government are beginning to admit that keeping their word on all the 100-day promises that brought Pakatan to power (on the back of alleged wrongdoings in the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and the hue and cry over rising prices) will be easier said than done.
Critics have even accused the new inhabitants of Putrajaya, the administrative capital, of manipulating government debts (raising it to over RM1 trillion from the internationally-accepted RM680 billion) to excuse itself from having to justify the election promises.
These include promises to abolish toll, to defer student loan repayment with the aim of abolishing it altogether, to return petrol subsidy, forgive Felda settlers' loans, and replace Good and Services Tax (GST) with a "fairer" tax regime.
As if these weren't hard enough, supporters of Pakatan are clamouring for speedier action (again, as promised) against former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak over 1MDB. A crisis between the Palace and Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad is brewing over the Pakatan government's Attorney-General nominee even as calls to review and even dismantle the various Islamic bodies, such as JAKIM, gain momentum.
As the new government or, rather, the Council of Eminent Persons, deals with the issue of rising prices, it will inevitably face the question of rising cost of subsidies for the obligatory Haj pilgrimage to Muslims.
The removal of subsidy from the cost of Haj would be deemed as unconstitutional to the conservative Constitutional purists.
They would argue that any change in government spending for Islamic purpose must get the concurrence of the King, or the Yang Di Pertuan Agong, just as in the case of the Malay and Bumiputera empowerment policies under Article 153 of the Federal Constitution.
The counter argument could be that Haj subsidy is the day-to-day administrator's prerogative and a matter of ringgit and sen.
A Q&A on the Lembaga Tabung Haji (LTH) official website puts the subsidy figure as RM9,750 for every pilgrim.
Last November, former Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Jamil Khir said the actual cost of performing the Haj was RM22,450 and LTH's subsidy was RM12,450.
The total amount of subsidies borne by LTH to send Malaysians to perform the Haj was RM300 million.
The Saudi Arabia government recently reduced their subsidies for Haj administration and are passing the cost on to pilgrims. It resulted in increases in transportation, accommodation, meal, and other prices. In the past, there was no airport tax for pilgrims, or they were charged just a token, but now they have to pay like everybody else.
In March, former Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department, Dato Dr Asyraf Wajidi Dasuki said the Saudi government's move to introduce the Value Added Tax (similar to our then GST) would add RM733 more for every Malaysian pilgrim.
Ringgit was hovering at the 3.90 to the US dollar level in March. It appreciated to almost RM3.85 prior to the general election, but now is short of 4.00 under volatile trading. It means even tighter costs.
The subsidy cost that Tabung Haji would need to bear this year could reach RM400 million.
Thus it begs the question: Can LTH, in the light of the sharp drop in the stock market, reduced attractiveness of Malaysia's Islamic capital market, and expected decline in investment return, afford it?
For the long-term, the new government will need to decide whether to maintain or abolish the subsidies for Haj. The middle of the road solution could be to do target subsidy but the fundamental question is Shakespearean – to be or not to be.
It is as much a political decision as it is a financial one. Political fallout with the Malay voters will be one a major consideration but the Pakatan government can take comfort with the fact that the next general election is still five years away.
Haj season will begin after the Hari Raya. Perhaps, pilgrims for 2018 would be spared but sooner or later the new government will still have to deal with the Haj subsidy issue.
And have no doubt that it will. So far, the new Putrajaya has shown that it is willing to risk deflation and negative growth as well as upset the stock and capital markets and tempt a recession. It has shown determination to remove excesses and cancel tens of billions of worth of projects. It is not even taboo anymore to fire the previously untouchable public servants.
Some would see these as a political display, the kind the previous government never had. Time will tell.

He looked over the parched land and realized he couldn't remember the last time it had rained. This area used to be called 'Kansas' - fine farmland when he was young. Nothing grew here now. The land was too old. There was no water, little atmosphere. The planet was dead except for its bones and it was only a matter of days, maybe even hours before old Sol went through another death spasm and even Earth's bones would be gone.
He trudged over to the spot his mind's eye told him was the old cemetery. All the markers were long gone, but he knelt on the sand anyway.
"I miss you so much," he said to the air. "I miss... everyone... But most of all, I miss you, Lois. I wish you could see what humanity has become. I wish you were here so I could show you the worlds they inhabit. I wish..." His voice dropped to a whisper. "I wish I could be with you, to hold you one more time."
A lone tear touched the sand and disappeared.
"Grandfather, it's time," a voice intruded.
He looked up at her. He thought her name was Ariella. She claimed she was his descendant but even she didn't know how many generations separated them. She was the one assigned to watch over him today although he was certain she had better things to do than to put on human form and babysit him as he mourned his long lost past on a long dead world.
"I don't remember her voice," he said. "I barely remember what she looked like."
Ariella waited. She was good at waiting. Inhumanly good. But then, Homo Sapiens Terra had evolved past human many millennia ago. They no longer even had humanoid form except when they wanted it. They no longer needed instrumentality. They were pure thought.
He was the last vestige of what they had once been, and he wasn't even human. When they moved on, he was trapped in his material form. He had tried living in the colonies, even living with aliens, but they all moved beyond him. The bioengineering that gave the last Kryptonian super powers also kept him locked in his material form.
"Grandfather, they won't hold the portal open much longer," she said, looking up at the bloated star that had once warmed a vibrant green world. "It's very close to core collapse."
"Maybe I don't want to leave. Maybe I want to die with this world."
"There is no evidence of an after-life," she said. "There is no reason to believe that she, or anyone, is waiting on the other side."
"I think even oblivion would be better than this," he said. "I've forgotten her voice. I've forgotten..."
She wasn't listening. He had long ago learned to recognize when Ariella left her body on automatic as she attended to more urgent matters.
Then she blinked twice and she was back. She held out her hand to him. "Come Clark. Today is not a day to die."
He looked around at the dull, flat landscape. Dead, dead and forgotten. Mom and Dad, Lois, Perry, Jimmy, Lana... all gone to dust except in his failing memory.
He sighed and took Ariella's hand. "No, I guess it isn't a good day to die."
She smiled at him and he remembered Lois's smile.

Properties of a trapezium or trapezoid (math facts)
The main property of a trapezium (as known in Great Britain) or trapezoid (as known in the United States) is that it is a 4 side shape with exactly one pair of parallel sides.
Depending on how the trapezium is drawn determines how many lines of symmetry if has.
The trapezium at the top has one vertical line of reflectional symmetry and the trapezium at the bottom of the picture has no lines of symmetry.
A trapezium doesn't have rotational symmetry so the order of rotational symmetry is 1.
You can work out the area of a trapezium by using the formula A = ½(a+b)h. Where a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides and h is the shortest distance between the two parallel sides.
Work out the area of this trapezium.
The two parallel sides are 8cm and 10cm. So a = 8 and b = 10. It doesn't matter if you have these the other way around.
The shortest distance between the parallel sides is 6cm so h = 6.
All you need to do now is substitute these 3 values into the formula:
A = ½(a+b)h
A = ½ × 18 × 6 = 54 cm²
Alternatively, since the trapezium was symmetrical you could split up the trapezium into 2 triangle and a rectangle:
Area of each triangle = (6 × 1) ÷ 2 = 3cm²
Area of the rectangle = 8 × 6 = 48cm²
So the total area of the trapezium is 48 + 3 + 3 = 54 cm²
Working out the area of a trapezium is a common question on most exam papers, and you can use trapeziums to estimate the area enclosed between a curve and the coordinate axes (this is known as the trapezium rule).
So to summarise the properties of a trapezium:
a) A quadrilateral with a pair of parallel sides.
b) 0 or 1 lines of reflectional symmetry.
c) no rotational symmetry.
d) area of a trapezium A = ½(a+b)h.

The largest Czech-Slovak law firm HAVEL & PARTNERS is the most sought-after employer among law firms in the Czech Republic for the fifth time. This comes from the latest results of the survey TOP Employers, which was organised for the eighth year by the Association of Students and Graduates. In addition, the law faculty students with the best study results ranked the firm first for the third consecutive year in the Lawyer category, where international law firms dominated before HAVEL & PARTNERS. The survey TOP Employers 2019 this year involved a total of 11,577 university students.
"We are very pleased that we remain the most attractive employer among law firms in the Czech Republic for the incoming generation of lawyers. These excellent results are a confirmation to us that HAVEL & PARTNERS is a strong and established brand. I would like to thank all students for the vote in the survey, and I believe that we will start successful cooperation with many of them," Jaroslav Havel, managing partner of the firm, says of the current award.
The results of the TOP Employers 2019 study correspond with the position of the firm in the legal market. It is the largest and most successful domestic law firm, which has also long been confirmed by the results of the Law Firm of the Year competition, in which HAVEL & PARTNERS has clearly triumphed. Currently, the firm employs more than 200 lawyers in its offices in Prague, Brno and Bratislava, of whom there are more than 100 attorneys and 29 partners, as well as about 80 students of mostly law faculties.
"Students who will become a part of our team will not only gain immediate access to extensive corporate know-how, but also, at the beginning of their careers, they will have the opportunity to work with top experts and experienced senior lawyers for the most demanding clients from among nationally and globally successful companies in their fields. Other reasons why we are an attractive employer to our younger colleagues are our extraordinary, continuous 18-year economic growth and our business development in the European context, enabling the unique professional and wage growth of talented colleagues," says Josef Hlavička, a firm partner responsible for human resources.

Officials confirm microburst hits New England, bringing down trees, power lines
Severe weather associated with cold front approaching region
The National Weather Service confirmed microbursts touched down in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, causing heavy widespread damage.
Severe thunderstorms brought down power lines and trees down onto homes, roads and vehicles Monday afternoon.
In Boston, several large trees were uprooted in West Roxbury where neighbors say the storm front moved through very quickly. Images from Jamaica Plain also showed similar damage.
Damage was significant in Haverhill. The National Weather Service confirmed the storm that passed through the area was a microburst.
Sky5 found many trees down around the golf course of the Haverhill Country Club and WCVB reporter John Atwater found a bus trapped under fallen power lines.
So far, no injuries were reported.
The National Weather Service said a microburst with winds 80-90 mph caused damage in Plaistow, New Hampshire.
Video posted shows the intense wind and rain in Haverhill.
In West Roxbury, trained storm spotters reported two large trees fell. It's unclear the extent of the damage they caused.
In Wellesley, a tree fell on a home on Dewey Path. A tree also fell onto a utility pole on Weston Road.
Reports indicate the storm may have taken down a utility pole and wires on Shelburne Falls Road in Conway.
High pressure moves in Tuesday, bringing somewhat lower humidity and temperatures in the low to mid-80s.

NASHVILLE --- The Tennessee State University women's basketball team held its first official practice of the 2016-17 season Monday night in the Gentry Center.
After the initial stretch and warm up the team began practice with ball handling drills before moving to other full court workouts.
The energy picked up when the Lady Tigers began transition work. The first part of the drill had three players on the court while the second phase increased the number to five players.
"I think it went well," said senior Forward Jayda Johnson. "We worked on a lot of competitive drills, competing against each other and that's what we need. I feel like everyone stepped it up and we were all vocal."
The liveliness of practice continued to increase as the night went on and when the teams split for position work, each group got in a number of drills. The guards were on one end of court working on shooting, individual defense, passing and offensive attacks. On the opposite end of the court the post players focused on establishing position, defense, rebounding and scoring in the paint.
Practice concluded with a high intensity rebounding and scoring drill that had each player competing against one another. The goal was to score five points first and Jayda Johnson came away with the victory.
"Being a senior, its more on the line. Its like do or die at this point so you really give it all you got. Right now my mentality is to practice like it's my last."
The Lady Tigers have nine returners from last year's team and five newcomers including transfer Olivia Jones. TSU's first game of the season is on Nov. 12 at Xavier.

Written by Ryan
Having gotten married 5 years ago (time flies!), I've had some time to reflect on the decisions we made when planning our big day. I live and breathe the wedding world. I grew up in it when I started as an assistant at a wedding studio at the young age of 16. So it was actually a shock to me that when it came to planning my own wedding, I didn't have the faintest idea as to all the things it takes to plan a wedding.
There are lots of magazine articles out there about timelines and questions to ask but I wanted to give you an insider's, no BS, view on how to think about it and a few insider pointers.
Setting your priorities
What do you want?
I think most people don't know what they want from their wedding. I know I didn't. I knew I loved my fiancé and I knew I wanted her to be my wife. We were still pretty young and, while we did have some core values, it was easy to get swept up in wedding trends and details. If family is the most important thing to you, then doing special things for your family should be a big part of your priorities. When you go to meet with vendors, tell them how important your family is to you and how you are looking for ways to make them feel special. If you love to party and you want everyone to just have a wild night to remember be sure to find people who get behind that.
We wanted something fairly small, since we don't love being the centre of attention. We wanted to know that we could have quality time with everyone important to us. So we chose a small venue. We had communal tables so everyone from each group of our lives could be together. We kept the décor low to the table so people would be able to see each other and talk.
Looking back we did a lot of things right and true to ourselves, though I'd be lying if I said it was intentional!
What is important to you as a couple?
It is super easy to get caught up in this year's wedding trends, be it donut towers, cupcake stands, candy bars. But defining what is important to you as a couple is what is going to make the day that much more special. I love a donut bar as much as the next guy, don't get me wrong. But looking back on the 100+ weddings I've photographed it was the emotionally intense moments that stand out to me. That is my bent. So if stopping in at that special spot only you two know about for your portraits instead of going to the most epic spot is going to make your day that much better and more memorable, we'll be there with you 110%.
What do you want to remember?
Letting your vendors know these values I've been talking about is really going to shape who you choose. Let them know what you want to remember most when you think back on your wedding day.
Ask your friends
We are really fortunate to be largely a referral based business. That's 100% because of the relationships we've built, not just with our couples, but with their families and friends. Asking your friends who got married about their vendors, even if they didn't have a great experience with someone, can be so helpful in finding out what worked and what didn't and learning from that.
It's not your parents wedding, but they need to be included
One of my biggest regrets about our wedding was not including our families more in the planning. My wife and I are very independent and like to think we are that "different" couple. Our parents had some strong opinions about our wedding, including wanting to throw a big wedding and inviting all their friends. We knew that having a really big wedding wouldn't work for us, since we don't like being the centre of attention. But once we set that boundary, it became easy to think that all the future decisions should also be 100% ours.
This was tough, because we are both very close with our families but we also don't like being told what to do. I think had we taken more time to include them in our vision, and show them what we were excited about and why, we could have had more fun with our families in the planning.
There is no "best"
Last time I checked, there were about 1000 wedding photographers in Toronto. Some are definitely better than others but, more than anything, some are better for you than others. The same is true for all your other vendors.
Yes…I know on our homepage we have a quote that says "The Best Wedding Photographers in Toronto" but that's what our client Amanda said. And we were the best photographers for her.
With that said, look for people who treat you really well! You are likely going to be working with them for a year. Choose people who have your best interests at heart. Many wedding vendors are out to make their portfolio better and sometimes that doesn't coincide with creating a genuine experience for you.
Things to ask and not to ask your vendors (at least right away)
We get so many e-mails that just say "what are your prices?" and I totally get it. You want to know that you are not wasting your time and are also not wasting your vendor's time. And we often don't know what to ask, right?
Most really good vendors you get in touch with don't want to be commoditized. We got into this because we
love it! We want to work with people who value what we do and are going to be as excited for us to be at their wedding as we will be excited to be there. In that first e-mail, tell them what was exciting to you about their services. Tell them what you value as a couple, and let them know what budget you are working within. While we don't want to be comparison shopped for the "best price" we do want to work with people that can afford us, and if your budget isn't within that range, chances are a good vendor will do their best to recommend someone who is.
If you have a vendor you really connect with ask them for recommendations. We are always getting asked about good videographers to work with, but we also know amazing florists, planners and event venues. Ask us what we've seen recently that got us excited.

If you were watching the Oscars this weekend, you saw a lot of men in tuxedos. If you watched a little more closely, you may have seen a few celebrities that stood out from the masses that were clad in black notch lapel numbers.
Today we present you with a red carpet worthy look that showcases our favorite trends from the 87th Academy Awards ceremony.
One alternative, yet still classic take on black tie is to brighten things up with midnight blue (a la James Bond in Skyfall). From there, you can take your personal style a step further by swapping out a dinner jacket for a velvet smoking jacket.
Another way to break free from the notch lapel is to opt for a shawl collar. Still perfectly acceptable at a formal event, and a nod to old school Hollywood to boot.
Last but not least, accessories are a great way to liven up any outfit. We were a big fan of the man-brooches sported by numerous celebrities from Jared Leto to Clint Eastwood.

China tops Co2 Pollution list for 2007
China's carbon dioxide emissions contributed the bulk of last year's 3.1 percent global rise in CO2 emissions, its emissions were about 14 percent higher than the United States and accounted for two-thirds of the global rise, the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (PBL) said Friday. The United States was second with 21 percent, while the European Union was at 12 percent, India eight percent and Russia six percent. Cement clinker production was a major cause of the emissions, and with an increase of 10 percent in 2007 China now accounted for about 51 percent of global cement production, said the PBL. After the earthquake which recently hit the Sichuan province, it may be expected that the rebuilding of houses and roads for over five million people will cause the cement demand to soar even further. Overall in the US last year, CO2 emissions rose by 1.8 percent, mainly due to the cold winter and warm summer contributed to rising carbon emissions from heating and cooling functions
The figures were compiled from recently published British Petroleum energy data and cement production data for 2007. In the current global warming talks, the US and other Western nations have boasted at making mandatory cuts in greenhouse gases as developing nations like China are not required to slash emissions under the UN climate change framework. We figure that since emissions are now being openly traded, china is going to crack a bigger deal and pay for its emissions maybe at some discount too.

At some point, as a single parent, you're going to want to start dating again. But dating as a single mom is very different than dating when you're childless. Pulling an all-nighter or spontaneously grabbing drinks after work isn't necessarily something you can do when you have children. As a single mom, you now have a family to take care of and, as we all know, free time is more of a dream than a reality. But who says you can't find love as a single parent? It's time to put yourself out there. Continue Reading

Logan Paul finally addressed something that haters and fans alike have wondered lately: why is Chloe Bennet dating Logan Paul?
Paul publicly thanked his girlfriend for risking her career and relationships by standing by him during his many, many controversies.
"Over the past year she's experienced ALL my ups & all my downs ... mainly downs," he wrote, laying out one of the many reasons he loves Chloe. "... She never turned her back on me, she didn't publicly shame me, and she didn't hop on the 'I Hate Logan Paul' bandwagon ... Instead, she stuck her neck out for me, risked her career and personal friendships and chose to help me grow as a human being & educate me on how too use my platform more responsibly ..."
Logan has had a plethora of controversy lately, but none garnered more backlash than his Suicide Forest video that caused YouTube to drop him on its advertising platform and cancel the YouTube Red projects Paul had in development.
It wasn't long before Bennet was roped into Paul's controversy, with many criticizing her for claiming to be an activist for Asian-Americans while dating a man who "created a career out of humiliating Asian people."
The pair seemingly split amid the backlash but confirmed they were dating last week following months of speculation.
Logan also issued a message to Chloe's haters: "And to anyone giving her a hard time, please do not hold Chloe accountable for MY actions in the past; instead recognize her efforts to help me become a better man ... that's a queen right there."

Had your fair share of vapid, mass-produced commercials? You need crisp, clear TV advertising that speaks directly to your audience. At Hightower, our advertising videos set the pace. Our videos are not just videos, but compelling sales messages. Working with creatives and analytic experts, we will promote your business' values.
A unique story that breaks the mould. For almost a decade, we've helped small and established businesses in Shoreditch connect with their customers via quality video communications. TV adverts provide a wonderful medium to reach new and existing customers daily; every video counts.
For your ads to break the mould, a highly-creative team of video experts is key. We do the whole shebang; script production, development, acting, graphics, editing and posting. Concerned about government ad censor reviews? Fear not, Hightower ads are renowned for passing the Clear cast test with the core message intact. Hightower's video experts will ensure that your target group receives the message in glorious technicolour, whether it is a sales promo or a new product launch.
Advertising your business on TV creates an opportunity for customers to love your brand. Being a likable brand is one of the first steps to sales conversion. When you create a likable brand personality, you'll find it easier to sell. Using engaging video advertising, Hightower helps businesses build likable brands. We have working relationships with writers, producers, professional actors and media buyers. We can produce the entire television ad from ideation to airdate. Here is short description of our production technique:
You can submit any briefs you may have for video ideas via email or contact us directly. A creative director will be assigned to work on the production of your video. Next, the creative director (CD) will think of a big idea to fit your video brief. The creative concept aims to satisfy the requirements of your video. The AD will assign a scriptwriter to create some video scripts for the project. The next step is a review where you will decide which script aligns best with your intended message. After selecting a script, a storyboard artist will be assigned to sketch the concept on a visual board. It is easier to produce a video ad when you illustrate it first. From storyboarding, the producer starts on the timetable of events and draws up a budget.
Depending on the scale of your project, we may decide to shoot in a studio or specific location – sometimes both. Shoots may last days or weeks, even for simple 30 or 60 second adverts because of the usual filming complications. However, we guarantee that your video will always be ready on schedule.
After the shoot, the post-production unit handles the rushes for final editing. The work of the editor is to develop a narrative from the rushes. Their work includes producing a well-rendered, crisp quality finished piece. The next stage "finessing" is then completed by the graphics and animation unit. The sophistication of graphics is usually contingent to your budget size, product-type and business preferences. As for music, we have a rich repertoire of songs at Hightower. We buy them legitimately for all our video projects including yours. However, if you wish, we can compose a song specifically for your video ad. Finally, one of our talented vocalists will narrate your ad in a convincing way that suits your brand. When it comes to quality video production, no one in Shoreditch produces like Hightower. In addition, our videos make great investment returns! Want an email-prompting, phone-buzzing ad video? Send us a message today.
Many clients usually ask questions about our video production process We have some FAQs below:
Yes, not too long ago, TV ads were costly, but things are different now. Given the multiple channel options available with modern satellite (and even terrestrial) TV, you have higher negotiating power to bargain for a media slot. Additionally, we have flexible options that allow you to choose quality videos for any budget size you have.
Sure, you can. Creatives at Hightower are always willing to brainstorm ideas with clients. Nevertheless, suggesting ideas is just an arm of creativity. When you factor in other aspects such as script writing, acting, editing, voice-over and so on, the cost remains relatively standard.
You can if you want, provided you can afford it. However, it is worth noting that the right celebrity fit for the message is necessary for a successful video. Although a celebrity is liked by many people, some personalities could be incompatible with your brand.

Or in my case: Where hubby is and my workload isn't.
It's good to be home.
And it's good to have had a little time to do nothing in.
It's been a long time where whenever I even had the time to blog, I just couldn't be bothered.
I feel like my muse is back.

Pele has challenged Cristiano Ronaldo to "score more than 1,283 goals" for club and country.
Ronaldo struck a hat-trick for Portugal in a 5-1 World Cup qualifying victory over the Faroe Islands on Thursday, which brought his international goal tally to 78.
Only four male players have scored more goals for their country in history, and Ronaldo will now set his sights on Godfrey Chitalu, who scored 79 goals for Zambia between 1968 and 1980.
The Real Madrid forward's first strike against the Faroes was an acrobatic effort, one which Pele was impressed by.
"I saw the goal, It was really special," he told Goal. "It was a really nice play.
"Of course, these are different times. But the beautiful thing about football is the goals. And I take this opportunity to send a big greeting to Cristiano Ronaldo for that victory."
But in reference to his own career goals record, which stands at 1,283 but includes post-retirement benefit games, matches in training and beating his mates on FIFA, the three-time World Cup winner added: "Now he has to score more than 1,283 goals!"
For those counting, Ronaldo has 608 goals at the age of 32. Against real opponents.

Creatures Family Days (Frankenstein Family) (実験品家族, Shiyan Pin Jiating; Jikken-hin Kazoku) is a Taiwanese manhua written by Yanai. It is later serialized by Shinchosha's Monthly Comic @Bunch seinen manga magazine, which is published in Japan on October 21, 2017. The anime adaptation premiered on April 9, 2018.
Tanisu's parents are mad scientists who live outside of normal society. They locked up their own children up on an isolated island and did experiments on them in secret, turning Tanisu's older siblings into strange creatures. One day, their parents were arrested, and the siblings were moved to another island by the welfare office. The trouble is that none of the siblings except Tanisu know how to interact in modern day society..

Sebastien Buemi made it two wins from the 2015/16 Formula E season's first three races with an assured drive to victory in Punta del Este from fifth on the grid. The Renault e.dams driver passed Lucas di Grassi at the start and rebuffed an attack from the Brazilian later in the race before easing to the win. After beating di Grassi off the line, Buemi began hounding Loic Duval for third, the front row starting Dragon Racing driver having lost second to Sam Bird, but had to wait until the hairpin on the fourth lap to dive by and take the place. Buemi then lit the timing screen up with purple sectors as he caught and attacked Bird, passing him at Turn 17 a lap later. Poleman Jerome d'Ambrosio had eked out a 1.8-second advantage, but Buemi whittled that to nothing in just two laps. At one-quarter distance Buemi dived by the Dragon driver at Turn 17, and by the time the leaders stopped nine laps later his lead was 4.3s.
Di Grassi, having passed Bird, was held up behind Duval throughout the first stint but a perfect pitstop from Abt meant he jumped both Dragon drivers and halved Buemi's lead in the process. When a full-course yellow was required to deal with Bird's stricken DS Virgin DSV-01, which stopped on the first lap out of the pits, a misunderstanding meant Buemi slowed too much and allowed di Grassi to close further. A 2.6s gap became nothing by the time racing resumed and di Grassi stuck with Buemi initially, but could not live with the Renault driver as the stint progressed. It developed into a simple run to the flag for Buemi, who takes the championship lead as a result of the victory and fastest lap.
D'Ambrosio kept Duval at bay in the all-Dragon fight for third, but the team will surely rue another race in which a slightly slow pitstop cost its drivers positions. Buemi's team-mate Nicolas Prost had an anonymous run to fifth, only just finishing ahead of Antonio Felix da Costa in the season-one specification Team Aguri entry. Compared to the chaos of Putrajaya the second half of this race was a sedate affair lit up in the closing stages by a fierce battle between Nelson Piquet Jr and Jean-Eric Vergne over eighth. Vergne eventually claimed the place when Piquet speared sideways at the Turn 15 chicane and clouted the barriers, shortly after the pair made contact at the hairpin.

Today you can buy flashing LEDs; a simple two-lead component that requires only a power supply to produce even flashes of light. They look for all the world like any other LED, though embedded in the plastic dome is an integrated circuit to do all that flashing work.
There was a time though when a flashing LED was something of a big deal, so much so that National Semiconductor produced a dedicated chip for the task. The LM3909 boasted the ability to flash an LED for over a year using a single C battery. That part is now long out …read more http://pje.fyi/Q8wTR6

I fell in love with Liam only to be left shattered into a million pieces. Again. The idea of being without him cripples me but the reality is, he's gone. He doesn't understand and I can't make him. If only he'd see the conviction behind my words—then Liam would still be here.
Time isn't something I ever thought much about. It ebbs and flows, but it never changes. I can't make it stop—no matter how much I want to. There's no way to rewind the clock or halt it. In this moment, all I want is to make the world stop and go back to when I was happy and ready to tackle the world. Just two short minutes ago, there was no worry about how my day would go. I was going away with the man I love, the one who healed me. But time isn't my friend. It slaps me in the face and laughs as I stand here wondering how the hell any of this is happening. I don't want to move forward, and I sure as hell don't want to slow it down.

On the 100th anniversary of its patriarch's death, the Choate family is still giving back to the town.
On the 100th anniversary of its patriarch's death, the Choate family is still giving back to the town.
Charles F. Choate died in 1911, but a fund from his family's estate has been giving out $3,500 grants for the purposes of recreation for decades.
This year, applicants have until May 6 to apply for the grant, which is awarded to any Southborough resident with a project that will advance recreation in the town, especially for children.
Every year, the heads of St. Mark's and Fay schools and Superintendent Charles Gobron meet to review the applications and award the grant.
The Choate family has a long history of involvement at St. Mark's and Fay. According to Fay School histories, Charles F. Choate Jr. graduated from St. Mark's and served as president of the board of directors for Fay. He also sent four of his sons to Fay School and spoke at the school's 50th anniversary.
Past projects supported by the Choate fund include 9/11 Memorial Field, an after-school field hockey program, outdoor activities at elementary schools and lighting improvements at Choate Field.
Project proposals should include a brief statement of purpose, a proposed budget and a description of the intended beneficiaries. Applications should be sent to St. Mark's Head of School John C. Warren at 25 Marlboro Road, Southborough, MA 01772.

Update 09/28/2017:
Was in contact with Jerry Cole, In Line, this morning. He was out of pocket for several weeks and is now active again. We talked about the bowed platforms and as both sides are veneered and even with me putting a cleat on the rear edge of the platform, did not make the platform flat. Jerry is calling PTree to see if they will replace both platforms, not the complete system. My shipping cost should be about 15.00. That I can do. The appr. cost of shipping at 70.00 came from a shippers quote using the weight listed on the original box. Jerry said it should not ever have been that high. We shall see in a few hours if PTree does the right thing.
I am changing my rating of the Dubby to 5 stars due to Jerry's hopeful intervention with PTree and they say ok to replace. If not, I will purchase the platforms from Jerry and I know he will make sure they are flat. I learned from Jerry that PTree is the importer of the Dubby and Jerry buys from them.
Thanks to all who commented on this review and now knowing that PTree in the importer of the Dubby, I would suggest to buy only from In Line, not Ptree. I removed the update on 09/25 knowing now that PTree is the importer, not In Line.
Update 09/29/2017: PTree agreed to replace and ship new platforms and I will ship the defective ones to them shortly. Unreal that it took Jerry calling PTree to take care of this issue. So, kudos Jerry. Thank You.
Hi Folks, I bought the Dubble Dubby frrom Ptree on June 6, this year. For health reasons I was unable to open the box until 3 weeks ago. After assembling the Left Dubby and making the square cut on the wood end block, I noticed the cut was slanted off 90 degrees and the back side had a small curve to the right of the block. My saw blade has a .001 run out from back to front and is square to the miter tracks and my Incra 1000SE miter is dead on at all angles. So, checking the Dubby I found the sled to be bowed in its center from front to rear of the saw. Checking the right sled I found the same bow. The mdf is smaller than 1/2 inch and can be stressed quite easily. At this pont I am a bit aggravated and I checked the return policy of PTree. It is much less than satisfactory. I would have to send the complete set back to PTree at my own expense (more than 70.00 shipping cost). For a defective item PTree does not issue an RA as other suppliers do. I will not pay for someones defective product shipping, that should be PTrees.
Here is the second email I sent to Jerry Cole who owns Inline Industries. It contains the summary of my first email to him:
9/23/2017 Contact | In-Line Industries
http://in-lineindustries.com/contact/ 1/1
Hello Jerry,
Wondering if anyone is monitoring emails. I have yet to get a response from you guys about my
dubby. Whoever is manufacturing the sleds did not quality control my set. Both sleds are cupped in
the middle from front to back and after hours on hours trying to square the left sled and wood
block, I have given up. I had hoped you would have a solution that didn't require me returning the
sled at my expense. I attached a copy of my receipt from PTree so you would have it.
Well, maybe I will hear from you soon. For now I will use my Incra 1000SE miter which is dead on
at any angle. FYI, PTree's return policy less than satisfactory. They sold me a defective sled out
of the box. Sad…

yep the mdf was always one of the big negatives I saw with the system… worse case get some Baltic birch and the use the old ones as templates.. I know that is not a good solution for something you paid so much for but you should have a great product after you update it with better material

Ptree is a horrible company to do business with. I got a defective saw paddle switch and they wanted me to pay to have it shipped back to them. If THEY found it to defective they would replace it.
Bought this defective switch from Peachtree-read on for potential dangers and poor customer service

You might check with your credit card company and see if you can file a claim through them for the defective item without having to send it back to Peachtree on your dime.

This review is really about Peachtree Tool and it would be nice if the title said that. I have ordered stuff from them before and I had no problem. However, I just went to their website and read their return policy. It is unacceptable and I will think twice before ordering from them any more. Thanks for pointing this out.

I only order stuff from Peachtree that I am familiar with so that I don't run into their onerous return policy.
Having said that, I have had good luck talking to their customer service folks when I ordered my router table base cabinet. The lady was very helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. I wasn't trying to return anything, just find out where things stood on shipping. They had to box it up with extra packing and such to keep it from being damaged. When it did arrive on the OTR truck, it was undamaged.
Others have related bad experiences, but I have had good luck with them so far.

I agree Ptree should be avoided if possible. I have had two bad experiences with them, they will not get a third chance from me. However, I have used the Duubby for over Twenty years, I think it is perhaps the most used and useful accessory in my shop. My first set were on my right tilting Grizzly Contractor saw for twelve years, they performed flawlessly. When I upgraded to a left tilt cabinet saw I replaced the left side Dubby, I use it every day and marvel at it's accuracy, repeatability and reliability. I would give the Dubby Sled six or Seven stars, mdf has not been a concern at all. My old one had a wooden fence and a Mylar glued on scale. The new one has a sturdy aluminum fence and a steel engraved scale, nice upgrades. My occasion to use the right side is limited so I did not replace it. This is a simple yet elegant tool that I highly recomend. I have no affiliation with In-Lind industries other than being a delighted customer.

I bought the original "Dubby" 20+ years ago and liked it. Then about 5 years ago I gave it to my brother-in-law and bought the new one, which ended up in a struggle to get support. It took in-line almost three weeks to respond to multiple inquiries before giving me the help I needed. I then bought an Osborne miter gage and like it even more. Last Spring I bought a new table saw and found that the Dubby didn't fit. Last week I wrote to them asking how to order a custom platform and how much it costs. I haven't heard anything back. So needless to say I am not impressed by their customer service.
