Nothing makes a great first impression quite like a bright, white smile. However, tooth discoloration and staining can put a damper on things really quickly. Teeth can become discolored for any number of different reasons. Let's take a closer look at some of the more common ones.
Food Choices
Just about everything you put in your mouth has the potential to affect your dental health, but certain choices in food and beverages can really do a number when it comes to tooth discoloration. Dark-colored beverages – like coffee, tea, or red wine – are huge culprits, for instance. This is doubly so because of their acid content.
Sugary or unhealthy foods can discolor your teeth over time as well. Instead, opt for healthful meals that are free of sugars, preservatives, or colorants. Brush and floss after every meal whenever possible.
Poor Dental Hygiene
If you're lax in the dental hygiene department, your smile could wind up paying the price. Brushing your teeth at least twice daily helps keep your pearly whites free from harmful plaque build-up, as well as make short work of stains before they have a chance to set in. Don't forget to floss either! Last of all, make sure you don't skip your regular dental appointments.
Unfortunately, tooth discoloration is also something that simply comes along with age as well. As is the case with other body tissues, tooth enamel breaks down over time as well. As a result, it becomes more porous and simply isn't as white as it was when you were young through no fault of your own. Impeccable dental hygiene and the use of topical whitening treatments can help keep your smile looking younger and whiter longer though.
Tooth discoloration can be discouraging, but you can help minimize the effects of it with a little tender loving care and vigilance.

India is "very sensitive" about rivers in the border areas, water will play an important role in strengthening ties with neighbouring Nepal and Bangladesh, said Uma Bharti.
India is "very sensitive" about rivers in the border areas, Union Minister Uma Bharti said today and stressed that water will play an important role in strengthening ties with neighbouring Nepal and Bangladesh. "Rivers and water will play important roles in strengthening our relations with neighbours like Nepal and Bangladesh… we are very sensitive about rivers in border areas," she was quoted as saying by an official statement. The Union Water Resources Minister said this during a seminar organised by the Central Water Commission (CWC) here on the occasion of World Water Day.
She, however, evaded any reference to the Indus river, the water of which is shared by India and Pakistan. Bharti said India is moving very fast towards becoming an important world power and water will play an important role in country's development in the days to come. "Water can be bane in the form of floods and boon if utilised for irrigation," she said, adding the government is keen to solve the problem of flood and drought through inter-linking of rivers.
Also Watch:
Referring to the Inter-state River Water Disputes (Amendment) Bill, 2017, which proposes setting up of single and permanent tribunal, Bharti said it can become a model for other ministries to resolve disputes between states. Minister of State for Water Resources Vijay Goel, ministry secretary Amarjit Singh and CWC chairperson Narendra Kumar also addressed the seminar themed 'Waste Water – Monitoring and Management'.
Bharti stressed on recycling and reusing waste water to address water woes. "We can reuse grey water in gardens, industries, for irrigation and for other purposes. By exploiting this valuable resource, we will make the water cycle work better for every living beings and help in achieving the sustainable development goal," she said.

- Numerous celebrities have been arrested and faced charges this year.
- Alec Baldwin was charged with assault after allegedly punching someone in a parking spot dispute in November.
- Amy Schumer was arrested while protesting Brett Kavanaugh's appointment to the Supreme Court.
- T.J. Miller was arrested after allegedly calling 911 and accusing a woman of having a bomb in her bag on an Amtrak train.
On top of all the other celebrity news this year, quite a few stars had a bit of legal trouble in 2018.
Here are 12 of the most shocking celebrity arrests of the year.
Alec Baldwin was charged with assault after allegedly punching someone in a parking spot dispute in November.
Known for his portrayal of Donald Trump in his "Saturday Night Live" skits, actor Alec Baldwin made headlines when he was arrested in November for allegedly punching a man over a parking spot. The New York Police Department charged him with third-degree assault and harassment.
This is not his first run-in with the law. He was arrested in 2014 after NYC police said he was biking the wrong way on the street and has had a series of alleged incidents with photographers, once in 1995 and again in 2012.
He is due back in court in January for November's arrest.
David Henrie was arrested on charges of carrying a concealed, loaded firearm at Los Angeles International Airport.
The former "Wizards of Waverly Place" actor was arrested in September 2018 on charges of carrying a loaded firearm, carrying a concealed firearm, and possessing a weapon in a sterile area at Los Angeles International Airport. He later shared an apology online.
He faced up to one year of jail time following the incident but no further information about his sentencing has been released.
Pooch Hall was arrested on charges of a DUI and child endangerment.
Quite possibly most known for his role as Derwin Davis on BET's "The Game," actor Pooch Hall was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and child endangerment. The current "Ray Donovan" star was allegedly witnessed driving in Burbank, California, visibly intoxicated and with his 2-year-old son on his lap.
If convicted, Hall could face up to six years in a state prison.
Ice-T allegedly evaded paying a toll on the George Washington Bridge.
It was revealed in October that longtime "Law & Order: Special Victim's Unit" actor and rapper Ice-T was arrested in New York on theft of services charges. It is said that as he was crossing the George Washington Bridge, he allegedly evaded a toll by taking the E-ZPass lane and was arrested by police.
He later tweeted, "Cops went a little Extra. Coulda just wrote a ticket. In and out...Moovin."
Amy Schumer was arrested while protesting Brett Kavanaugh's appointment to the Supreme Court.
During a protest for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh in Washington, DC, comedian Amy Schumer was arrested along with 293 others on charges of crowding, obstructing, or incommoding, all of which are misdemeanors.
Among those 293 arrested, actress Emily Ratajkowski was also arrested. As stated during the protest, Schumer believed that "A vote for Kavanaugh is a vote saying women don't matter."
Amanda Stanton was arrested after an alleged physical altercation with her boyfriend.
Former "Bachelor" and "Bachelor in Paradise" star Amanda Stanton was arrested in September of 2018 in Las Vegas after a physical altercation allegedly took place between her and her boyfriend, Bobby Jacobs.
The 28-year-old reality star was accused of shoving Jacobs in what she claims was a playful manner while hotel security was present, which caused them to call the police. They arrested her on one count of battery domestic violence.
Since then, she has publicly stated that she is "embarrassed and ashamed" for her actions. They remain a couple, and the case against Stanton was dismissed in December.
Gretchen Wilson was arrested and accused of "breach of peace."
Country music star Gretchen Wilson was arrested at Bradley International Airport (outside of Hartford, Connecticut) and charged with breach of peace after an alleged "minor disturbance" on an incoming American Airlines flight, according to Billboard.
The singer, who allegedly became "belligerent" towards troopers as they responded to the call, later told the press that she was "saddened by the whole thing." This was reportedly her first arrest.
Wilson's charge was nulled in September and will be dropped in October 2019 as a part of a deal with Connecticut, according to People. The musician was also reportedly required to donate $500 to charity.
Vince Vaughn was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence in June.
Vince Vaughn's mugshot made its rounds on the internet this past summer when he was arrested in Los Angeles on suspicion of driving under the influence, according to authorities. Vaughn was later officially charged in September with one count each of driving under the influence and refusing to comply with a peace officer or to submit to an inspection, according to People.
T.J. Miller was arrested after allegedly calling 911 and accusing a woman of having a bomb in her bag on an Amtrak train.
Former "Silicon Valley" star Todd Joseph "T.J." Miller made headlines in March when it was reported that he was arrested after allegedly calling 911 and accusing a woman of having a bomb in her bag on an Amtrak train. When bomb squad member boarded the train, they found nothing.
Miller was released on a $100,000 bond and as of late August was in talks with prosecutors to work out a possible deal. If convicted, he could face up to five years in prison.
Heather Locklear was arrested twice this year.
"Melrose Place" alum Heather Locklear was arrested twice in 2018.
The first instance occurred when police were called and the actress was arrested on charges of felony domestic violence against her boyfriend and battery on a police officer, according to TMZ.
Six months later, she was arrested on two misdemeanor charges of battery against police and emergency personnel, according to USA Today.
Locklear had previously been arrested on charges of driving under the influence in 2008.
Adam Hicks was arrested for an alleged string of armed robberies.
Former Disney Channel star Adam Hicks was allegedly responsible for a string of armed robberies in Los Angeles along with a woman believed to be his girlfriend. The 26-year-old actor, who had roles in Disney's "Zeke and Luther" and "Lemonade Mouth," was arrested on charges of felony second-degree robbery and attempted second-degree robbery.
If convicted, the former actor faces up to more than 60 years in state prison. He appeared to be released in the custody of Metropolitan State Hospital, according to the LA County Sherrif's department website.
Allison Mack was arrested on allegations of involvement with a so-called "sex cult."
In April 2018 it was reported that actress Allison Mack was arrested on allegations of involvement with a co-called "sex cult" and purported self-help organization NXIVM. Perhaps best known for her role in the CW's long-running show "Smallville," Mack — who was arrested by federal officials in Brooklyn — was said to be the alleged cult's leader's (Keith Raniere) second-in-command.
She has been charged with sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy, and forced labor conspiracy and if convicted could face a minimum of 15 years in prison.

A person who wants to get a better job, a person who wants to improve his job prospects, in short, anyone interested in career development can apply for a career development loan.
The government of UK has tied up with various well known banks like the Royal Bank of Scotland and Barclays for career development loans. All that one has to do is find out which of these banks provide for such loans and apply accordingly.
The main advantage of these loans is that the borrower does not have to pay any interest during the course of his study. In fact, the government takes care of the interest during that period of time as these loans are government affiliated. He will start making loan payments only a month after course completion. But in case of loans like professional development loans, the interest incurred during the study period would have to be paid later, which only adds to the borrower's debt burden.

Affordances: Arguments
This post is part of an ongoing series about Affordances and Programming Languages.
Programming languages provide different facilities for defining functions and methods. In particular, they provide more or less flexible ways of specifying parameters.
Smalltalk's simple, consistent syntax provides only one option: ordered, required parameters. If you want to provide optional default values, arbitrary parameter ordering, or a variable number of arguments, you need to use separate explicit methods.
Smalltalk's keyword method syntax makes for very regular, readable code and that is a significant advantage. But it gets tedious to define a flexible API, as you can see above.
C++ is more flexible, in that it allows for optional default values.
In C++11, there are also several ways to allow a variable number of
arguments, including
variadic templates,
I use the latter here:
Creating a flexible API in C++ involves less code than in Smalltalk, which is an advantage. But with a complex API, it can be hard to know what the various parameters mean because of the lack of keyword arguments.
Ruby provides the best of both worlds, especially in Ruby 2.0 with its
keyword arguments. It's possible to use a
Hash in Ruby 1.9 and
earlier to have the same effect, but it involves a bit more code.
In Ruby, we only need one variant of the
find_font method, because
keyword arguments can be specified in any order and also have default
values. This allows for very flexible APIs. The cost is that, when
designing an API, you have to decide which facilities to use.
I'd be remiss if I didn't give a nod to Common Lisp's argument facilities here.
As with most things in programming languages, there are tradeoffs to be made. Smalltalk's simple, consistent syntax makes for very clear, readable code. However, it doesn't provide good affordances for flexible APIs. C++, Ruby, and Common Lisp provide more affordances, making it easier to write flexible APIs. However, that puts more pressure on the programmer to decide which facilities are best to use where. Doing that well takes experience.
With great power comes great responsibility.

- Older people, mostly men. Put your cellphone in your pocket (or on your desk if you're the prat sitting 5 metres away) put it on vibrate and turn it onto silent or meeting. Many of us can tell by the fact you keep the default ringtone on, and on a loud setting, that you barely have a clue how to use this device, and more importantly you don't know how fucking annoying it is to here that ringtone time and time again. I don't want to know that your phone has rung, frankly it isn't important.
- Talk quietly on the phone or go away somewhere to talk on it. I have as much interest in your phone conversation as I have in the contents of your stomach. Doing this in queues is the worst thing of all, it doesn't show you're important, it shows that you are too lazy or stupid to check voicemail and can't stand not having phone calls.
- There is something on trains in several countries called "quiet" carriages. In those you should turn your phone on vibrate and answer it only in the vestibule. If that's too hard, don't sit in the quiet carriage. I will sarcastically tell you off if you don't obey, which is nothing compared to my desire to take your phone and break it.
- Women. Don't put your cellphone in your handbag on a loud ring and spend the next 5 seconds rummaging around for the infernal thing so that in the last second it is so loud we all notice. Put it somewhere else and put it on vibrate, it will make us both happier.
- Beep Beep Beep Beep. Similar to 1. if you're too much of a retard to change the notification for text messages to a single silent vibrate, then you don't deserve the phone. One beep will do, but beep beep.... beep beep is unnecessary and rude.
- Airlines. Whatever airlines choose to allow people to receive phone calls or text messages should be boycotted. The Daily Telegraph has a campaign on this. If you are on a short flight, then you can cope spending an hour or two without the world being able to reach you or vice versa. On a long flight, people are likely to sleep, work or relax, and again what the hell are you going to do differently when you're on a flight? Ryanair and Air France are keen, well I wouldn't fly Ryanair anyway as it is the airline that has done more to lower service standards than any other, and Air France is disappointing, but then it accentuates the stereotype of French rudeness.
- Airline passengers. For fuck's sake wait till you're through the terminal before you use it. Who the fuck cares that "I've landed" while you're standing up waiting for the front door to open? If someone is picking you up, let them use their fucking eyes and look at the arrivals screen to determine if your plane is in or not. You have to be quite an absolute cock to suddenly turn your phone on when the seatbelt sign goes off, as if you have lost oxygen and you desperately need it. If you feel like that, get help.
In short, cellphones have one main use. The ability to call someone in an emergency or for business purposes (people working remotely). The secondary use is to text messages silently. Calls received should go to voicemail and people can pick them up later. It is possible to live productively without them going off infernally in public all the time.
and don't tell me your whinge and moan story about how much business you do with your phone. Fine, great, fantastic, just don't have the conversation in my ear and turn off your fucking ring tone. Got it? If you're that clever you can put it on vibrate.

Biodiversity Offsetting
Biodiversity offsetting has been introduced to make the compensation for impacts on biodiversity as a result of development, transparent and measurable, ensuring no net loss of habitats across the UK.
It is a process by which the potential impacts of a development are measured and the potential gains delivered through a scheme are weighed against the proposed Impacts. This process involves the use of a metric published by DEFRA in the Technical Paper: the metric for the biodiversity offsetting pilot in England (March 2012).
Offsets are only to be considered after appropriate mitigation measures have been planned to reduce the residual impacts of a development. Biodiversity offsetting provides the final stage in the mitigation hierarchy following from avoid, minimise, mitigate and finally offset.
A number of local authorities are involved in pilot offsetting schemes and FPCR have in some cases worked closely with the them and our clients throughout the development of the offsetting system currently used. FPCR have taken an active role in the development of this technique through our attendance at a number of national conferences and focus groups. As a result, our ecologists are experienced in all stages of the biodiversity offsetting process.
Our services include:
- Calculation of the biodiversity units impacted by the development.
- Calculation of the offset credits required by the developer.
- Production of the offset specification to enable an offset sites to be identified.
- Production of Biodiversity Offset Management Plans.
- Provision of appropriate planning condition discharge reports.
- Conducting of monitoring for the period of the offset delivery contract

Spring Cleaning Checklist 2019 Spring is almost here! The warm weather, the outside activities, and of course the annual spring cleaning checklist. Here are 5 of the top things you and your family should be looking at this spring to help keep your home in good shape all year long. Clean the Dryer Vent A years worth of laundry will begin to build up a lot of dust and particulates in your dryer vent. It is a good idea to put this on your spring cleaning checklist and clean this out to prevent overheating fires. Did you know that a clogged dryer vent can cost you up to $3.00 more per load of laundry? It is also worth noting that new clothes tend to produce more lint than older clothes. Signs that your dryer vent might be clogged include: clothes taking longer to dry, the outside of the dryer gets really hot, the vent hood flap doesn't open, and it's been more than a year since the vent was cleaned last. Vacuum and Steam Clean Carpets During the winter, it is so easy to track in a lot of dirt and salt, which then gets transferred onto your carpet and other rugs. Professional carpet cleaning (hot water extraction) will help your carpets return to looking new and also vastly extend the life of them. Also, did you know that your carpets are the largest air filter in your home? Dust and dirt in the air will fall on the carpet and...Read More
How Does My Furnace's Gas Valve Work? The gas valve on your furnace is one of the most important parts! Without it, your house would be quite cold! The gas valve on your furnace is one of the most important parts. It is ultimately responsible for delivering an adjusting the flow of gas pressure to your furnace to keep it lit when running. A gas valve replacement is a common furnace repair in older furnaces. Let's take a look at the different kinds and how they work to keep your home warm in the winter! Types of Gas Valves Combination gas valve: This type of gas valve was introduced around the 1960s. A combination gas valve contains a handle, a thermocouple, a regulator, and a solenoid valve. In essence, it contains everything needed for the operation of a gas fired furnace. Gas chain: These types of gas valves are quite common and require the operator to manually turn a valve to open or close the flow of gas to the furnace. Once opened by the user, the solenoid valve will only open to allow gas to flow when the furnace actually calls for heat. Otherwise, you'd have a non-stop flow of gas into your home! A safety switch will only remain open if the thermocouple is heated to a minimum temperature, verifying the furnace is actually in heating mode. How The Gas Valve Works The furnace's gas valve is operated by electromagnets. There are two different valve's that work in...Read More
Can Room Color Affect Energy Efficiency? Looking to keep your house cooler in the summer while using less energy? Choose the right colors! Believe it or not, the colors you choose for your home can play a role in it's overall energy efficiency. As expected, darker colors tend to maintain heat and lighter colors help deflect it. Exterior Wall Colors If you live in a hotter southern climate, choosing a light exterior color is your best bet. A light beige, gray or other neutral color give great curb appeal as well as help deflect the suns heat. According to the Department of Energy, dark colors can actually absorb 70-90% of the suns heat which can then be transferred inside of your home. Who knew small details such as exterior paint color can really help your air conditioner out during those summer heat waves and prevent any costly air conditioner repairs. Light colors are reflective and will help cut your cooling costs. Roof Colors When it comes to your roof, the material that it's made of plays an important role. There are actually roof tiles available that are made of a reflective type of paint that can reflect the suns heat. Standard roof tiles can reach temperatures as high at 150 degrees in the summer. Cooler roofs with the reflective material can stay up to 50 degrees cooler, saving you energy during those hot months. Interior Walls Interior wall colors don't matter quite as much as the exterior. When it comes...Read More
How Often Should I Clean My Air Ducts? Over time, air ducts can be come packed full of dirt and dust that affects both you and your HVAC system. Dirty Air Ducts = Dirty Air It goes without saying that if your air ducts are dirty, the air the passes through them will also become dirty. Overtime, dust, skin cells and other particulates from both people and outdoors make their way into your HVAC system. Left untouched over time, your air ducts can become a breeding ground for some pretty nasty stuff and cause both sickness and allergy flare ups. However, just how dirty should they be before you have your air ducts cleaned? Visual Inspection A good way to get an idea of what may be hiding in your duct work is to look at the return vents in your home. Carefully remove the register and take a look inside. Can you see or feel a good amount of dirt or dust build up? If so, don't be alarmed. Air ducts are bound to get dirty over time and will require cleaning. It's important to note that everyone's home is different. If you have many pets, your air ducts will become dirty faster due to hair and dander build up. Time For A Cleaning! Signs it may be time for an air duct cleaning include: Visual signs of mold or dirt build up in return vents or other components of your HVAC system. You notice foul smells coming from...Read More

Fruit flies or small flies are more than just a nuisance in a food preparation area, they can cause big issues for your restaurants. Rentokil understands the challenges that the restaurants and bars usually face result from pest infestation:
Small flies can be signs of lapses in sanitation such as poor stock rotation practices, plumbing leaks or moisture problems, or cleaning issues, all of which are involved with food safety quality assurance.
The first step in eliminating problems with fruit or vinegar flies, drain flies, and other small flies is to have a comprehensive cleaning and maintenance program that addresses key areas of concern.

URGEnt FUD alert
Say hello to yet another attempt at attacking Apple's leading position in the (legal) music download market. This time, it's a service called URGE, which is backed by an alliance of Viacom, owner of MTV and numerous other media outlets, and Microsoft. Unlike Microsoft's own MSN Music Store website, URGE lives inside the Windows Media Player, just like the iTunes Music Store lives inside iTunes.
However, unlike iTMS, URGE will only work on computers running Windows Media Player 11 (which is only available for Windows XP), and I would not have felt the urge (so sorry…!) to waste any time mentioning this new site if it weren't for the fact that even they feature the usual annoying-to-no-end Microsoft FUD, although the only indication of its relationship with Microsoft is the WMP11 requirement and the Windows Media logo.
Here's what it says in their FAQ about compatibility with the iPod:
Music you download or purchase from URGE is in Windows Media Audio (WMA) format and protected by the Windows Digital Rights Management (DRM) software which is not compatible with the iPod. Apple has currently only made the iPod compatible with another format called AAC.
What Microsoft wants you to read into this is:
Apple does not want to give you the freedom of listening to the tracks you can buy from this site. They are a bad, bad company!!
What that FAQ excerpt really means, though, is this:
The fact that there is an important market in the digital realm that we don't own yet is hard to bear for us, and it is even worse that this specific one is dominated by those folks from Cupertino. However, we just don't understand what it takes to build a portable media player that is at least half as cool as the iPod, or a media player application that is anywhere near as elegant, easy-to-use, and reliable as iTunes.
So we'll just use our usual tactics of fear, uncertainty, and doubt to make you think that that neat iPod you already own is worthless, because it won't play the music we offer. Well, we do know that you probably couldn't care less, since you're happy with that iPod/iTunes combo, but we will give it a try, because we just can't stand it that there's a corner of the digital world outside our control.
Fact is that there have been numerous attempts at Apple's dominance of digital music, but none, not one, of the competitors really understand that, what makes the iPod/iTunes/iTMS combo so successful, is the original goal of providing a great music experience to-go. No hidden agenda about market share, platform wars, etc.; that's the stuff that comes after the product's design, but it's not the be-all and end-all. And it's this thing exactly — providing a great experience for your users, first of all — that Microsoft knows nothing about, nothing whatsoever.

Urge software is crap.
After 9 MB download, you will have to download 25 MB media player software crap, then after that again 25 MB Urge Library, shit.
After All, they forgot to make an uninstall button???? This software is worser than a virus. It makes your PC like a slave.
flash developer 27 May 2006 at 10:57
the say in their terms and conditions, that they will pay up to 5 dollar. this is nothing against all the anger, they produce within the community.
Jochen Wolters 28 May 2006 at 13:25
You can compare the 25MB player download to downloading iTunes to your computer if you want to access the iTunes Music Store. I'm not sure, though, why they require two more downloads, but this kind of requirement is in line with the last sentence of my post. ;)
About the missing Uninstall button: can you uninstall it from the Software control panel?

As the summer approaches, you're probably looking forward to heading outdoors to make the most of the sunshine and fresh air. Whether you're a keen runner or an avid walker, have you ever considered an assessment of your biomechanics? Changes to the structure and alignment of your feet and lower limbs can be a cause of pain in many instances but can often be corrected temporarily with taping or more permanently with orthotics.
The study of biomechanics is not only relevant to the athlete. Did you know that excessive pronation (fallen arches) and a leg length discrepancy (where one leg is shorter than the other) can contribute to low back pain? At Physio and Health Matters we often see patients who have suffered with back pain for years but have not always responded successfully to treatment. We offer a rounded approach, combining our physiotherapy skills with our knowledge of biomechanics to create a sustainable change.
Physio and Health Matters are proud to offer 3D scanning to create a digital cast for bespoke custom made orthotics, effective in the prevention and management of pain in the foot and ankle; shin; knee and back. We are also delighted to offer "Kinesio Socks" to prevent shin splints; provide stability around the ankle; protect and support the achilles tendon and pronation control – an innovative, hassle free and cost effective alternative to taping.

Super Rugby - Blues
Ali Williams joins star-studded Toulon
July 9, 2013
Ali Williams was in tears when announcing his international retirement in May © Getty Images
Former All Blacks lock Ali Williams has signed a one-year deal with European champions Toulon.
The 32-year-old Blues captain was picked up by the lucrative French giant as a replacement for Nick Kennedy, who requested a release from his contract to pursue international opportunities in his native England.
According to a statement by Toulon president Mourad Boudjellal, Williams' commitments in New Zealand will see him miss the first month of the French Top 14 season, which starts in August. A 77-Test veteran and World Cup-winning All Black, Williams will lead the Blues for the last time against the Chiefs at Eden Park on Saturday.
"It's done. He signed," Boudjellal told Lequipe. "He is expected to miss three or four weeks of the Top 14. He should land in late September or mid-October. He signed for a season at Toulon and perhaps a second."
Williams is one of seven off-season signings and joins a star-studded squad, including former All Blacks Carl Hayman and Chris Masoe, Bakkies Botha, Jonny Wilkinson, Matt Giteau, Drew Mitchell and Bryan Habana at Stade Mayol.
What he leaves behind is a largely inexperienced Blues side that formed a bond with their once-frivolous captain and bounced back from one of the franchise's worst seasons under his reign.
More importantly he will break one of the best coach-captain relationships with John Kirwan, who must now decide between Luke Braid and James Parsons as a suitable successor in the captain's armband. Keven Mealamu, who led the side in 2006 and then again from 2009-2012, is another option but without an extension to his NZRU contract, which expires this year, his future is uncertain.
Earlier this year Kirwan sat alongside Williams, who broke down numerous times during a press conference to announce his retirement from international rugby. Kirwan lauded Williams' passion for the Blues franchise and looked forward to building a brighter future together.
"I'm just excited about us growing together. We've still got a lot to learn in this competition, so for me it's a real positive and I think Ali is going to get better and better in his role with us," Kirwan said in May.
However, chronic knee pain and a broken thumb that Williams played through this season may have forced a re-think about how much time he had left to earn a living on the field. That along with the fact he took a serious pay cut at the Blues made the offer to join Toulon extremely hard to turn down.
Toulon won the European Cup for the first time last season, defeating Clermont in the final. They also came close to securing a Top 14 title but were upset by Castres in the final.

Gift #5: MALĀKO- Natural Skincare
Motivated to create something that is inspired by her roots and her home, Kanchalika brought her priceless Thai philosophies and wisdom into the eco-wellness skincare, creating the magical and beautiful union that is MALAKO.
When MALAKO's creator Kanchalika Stephenson first arrived in the UK from Thailand, what meant to be a happy new beginning was hindered by her eczema and Keliotosis Pilaris. Her skin, unfamiliar to a climate much different from the one she was used to in Southeast Asia, was unable to adapt to the sudden change in environment, causing her to suffer from those conditions. Steroid-based medication was the prescribed form of treatment, leaving her in a dilemma of being dependent on a drug that, while controlling her condition, was causing equally-as-unpleasant side-effects of dry and sensitive skin.
Frustrated with her options, Kanchalika started seeking alternative methods to control her eczema, researching on natural ingredients with little or no side effects. Turning to her Thai origins, Kanchalika knew that there were many alternatives that are therapeutic and potentially effective to solve her predicament. However, she soon found out that skincare which takes advantages of the effective ingredients from Thailand are far and few between in the UK.
We managed to sneak in a bit of time to ask Kanchalika a few questions!
What inspired you to start this business?
Apart from the urge to be my own boss and do something I love, I always want to create something that is inspired by my root, my home. It started when I moved from Thailand to the UK and the condition of my skin had changed quite rapidly. I was suffering from eczema and KP, and I had to use a steroid on my skin to calm the skin down. That led to my skin became so dry after using this chemical and very sensitive.
I've tried many products in the UK market to help with my skin condition, but I couldn't find anything that would improve and strengthen my skin without becoming dependent on steroid. I then turned to research more on natural ingredients, especially Thai and Western ingredients and found that, although I have access to Western ingredients, I rarely find products with Thai ingredients in it. The fact that there are so many therapeutic ingredients in Thailand which I rarely encountered, gave me the idea to start MALAKO.
What keeps you going?
It's the happiness I've never experienced before from being my own boss and doing something I love. To create the products, building positive messages and brand that is meaningful and purposeful for others, while getting the positive feedbacks from people around me, helps me keep going.
Who is your role model that gets you motivated as an entrepreneur?
My mom is my role model. She's the person who's always taught me to be an ethical business person – build the business to help people, not to take from people.
What are some of your highlights/challenges since starting your business?
The most challenging aspect of running my brand is to trust the process and to trust the path I've taken and keep going.
Anything else to add?
MALĀKO comes from Thai word 'ma-la-call', which means papaya in Thai.
In Thailand, we create beautiful dishes from papaya and it's the kind of food that you simply can't eat it alone (it will taste not quite right if you eat alone..for some reason). We sit around, gather in circle. And the moment we have this dish together, we start to open up the conversation. We talk, we share stories and wisdom. And this is the moment I wanted to continue with my brand. The brand that opens up conversation, shares wisdom and ideas with other small businesses and community to create something magical together.

Firefighters arriving to this call Thursday morning found a car up on wires - literally.
The driver ran off the road on North Lake Wohlford Road in Valley Center at 9:40 a.m. It was a one-vehicle accident at a turn in the road. When the driver went off the road he had no where to go but up the guide lines used to stabilize power poles, according to Nick Schuler Cal Fire spokesperson.
Firefighters checked in with the driver who was not injured and sitting tight inside the car. They then used a boom style tow truck to keep the vehicle stabilized while they got the 59-year old driver out safely.
The entire rescue took about 45 minutes but no doubt the crews will be talking about this one for awhile.

Fear is always looking for a door to enter. For example, take a girl in her 20's. Fear will try to creep in that she will never get married. After she gets married then fear will enter in that she will never have children. She finds out she is pregnant and fear comes in that she will have a miscarriage. During the rest of the pregnancy, fear will try to come in that something will be wrong with the child. Once the baby is born, she continually checks the nursery to see if the baby is still breathing and worries about Sids. When the baby reaches the toddler stage, the mom can become fearful about her baby choking or catching a life-threatening disease. During the school age years, the mother gets in fear that the child could get bullied or molested. Once the child starts driving, she is worried about what could happen when he/she gets behind the wheel. As the child goes off to college, she is scared the new student will get into drugs or marry the wrong person. And now you have come full circle and you are back at stage one. Every stage of life there's a place for fear to enter. That is why you have to shut the door to it. You have to get control of your thought life. We all know Philippians 4:7 that we are to think on things that are lovely, pure and of good report. How do we do this with the news and social media giving us a minute-by-minute report on how many minutes ISIS is from Baghdad?
Take control! Don't stick your head in the sand but watch what gets to your heart. Get in God's word, pray and find your peace. Philippians 4:8 says, "Do these things as I have done them and the God of peace will reign in your heart." Discipline yourself to think on the things listed in Philippians 4:7. This is an exciting time because people are going to need God! We need to be ready and in a place to help and serve others. We have the answer! Jesus is the name above all names including Ebola!
We are ready! Defeat fear and let's help people WIN!
Enjoy your life,
Pastor Sandy
John 14:27 – "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

It is essential to study earthquakes because it is a very serious natural disaster that can strike at any moment in time without giving any signs at all. In this module, we will study more about this hazard in detail. We will be using the term 'seismic hazard' when referring to earthquakes and the effects it has. Here is an overview of what you will learn in this module:
- The study of seismic hazards and how it can help to minimize the effects of earthquakes.
- The effects of earthquakes on humans and the environment.
- The different kinds of seismic hazards.
First, we need to define what seismic hazard is: It is the rate of possibility that an earthquake will happen in a certain geographic location, in an estimated time frame, and possesses a movement from the ground which can be measured through intensity levels.
These hazards comprise any physical event which can be linked with an earthquake that may create harmful effects on people's everyday lives.
What hazards can earthquakes bring?
We can break these hazards into two classes: the main earthquake hazards and the secondary earthquake hazards. How can we differentiate them from each other? Let's take a look.
Main earthquake hazards – these are hazards which can be directly associated with the occurrence of an earthquake. The examples of main earthquake hazards are:
- Shaking of land – this is one of the scariest earthquake hazards that the disaster could bring. Its damage can be fatal depending on the intensity of the earthquake because the ground becomes unstable and begins to move violently.
The trembling is associated with the ease that the earthquake waves pass through the earth's surface. This triggers the energy stored in stressed rocks to release when a fault has been moved.
There are several factors that need to be considered when measuring the damage that earthquakes bring, including:
- The intensity of the land movement.
- The duration of the land movement.
- The frequency of the land movement.
- The possibility of recurrence of the land movement.
- Landslide – this is another seismic hazard that must be taken seriously as it can cause a big impact in terms of damages and casualties. These landslides are caused by a forceful land motion from the pressure of the earthquake. This can cause the less stronger slopes to start sliding.
- Liquefaction – this is a seismic hazard that happens when there is a reduction in the sturdiness of the soil due to the shaking of the land. This seismic hazard can be linked to the massive number of damage. It often begins in saturated soils as these soils have a gap between particles which is packed with water. Liquefaction is often triggered by an earthquake which produces floods as a consequence.
- Surface Rupture – this is the tearing apart of a structure because the two sides of the fault slide against each other.
Secondary earthquake hazards – these seismic hazards happen due to the assistance of the main hazards. Although they are secondary to the main hazards, they can sometimes be more destructive than the main hazard.
- Tsunami – this seismic hazard is often earthquake-induced. It is a chain of waves that are produced in a body of water because of a system that produces motion in the water column.
Some examples of the systems that can produce tsunamis aside from earthquakes are:
- Volcanic activities
- Landslides
- Explosions that are caused by bombs from illegal fishing.
Tsunamis can greatly affect coastlines which can cause a massive amount of damage to assets and life.
- Seiche – this is a vertical wave in an enclosed water body. It is often generated by shock waves from earthquakes. These seiches are most common in bays, harbors, lakes, and swimming pools.
- Flooding – this is generated by tsunamis which is a secondary earthquake hazard. Large amounts of water rush into land areas, causing damage and destruction to homes, buildings, cars, and trees.
- Fires – this seismic hazard happens when a strong earthquake causes electrical damage to structures which can eventually turn into a fire.
- Mudflows – this occurs whenever there is an onset of landslides with the added water from rains or other foreign substances. It can affect a region or community dramatically.
These are the seismic hazards that you can expect when there is an earthquake.
Have you ever wondered what the preventive measures are and the actions that we can do to minimize its effects? The following are actions that we can take:
- During earthquakes, find a secure place, like a sturdy table, and hide under it. Cover your head with your hands and arms.
- The government ensures that buildings have passed the standards of safety to assure that it will not tremble when an earthquake happens.
- Attend earthquake drills so you know what to do if an earthquake strikes.
- Stay away from coastal areas when an earthquake occurs because a tsunami can strike at any point.
- Develop an emergency plan so you will be ready when there is an earthquake.
To conclude, you have studied the different seismic hazards, so you now have an idea of how an earthquake can be a nightmare for all of us – humans, plants, and animals as well as our infrastructure. However, with proper knowledge and preparation, the effects and casualties due to the above hazards can be minimized.

!title Building a City !c !3 Building software is like building _____? The common belief is that software is like engineering. Most people seem to think that building a software system is like building a bridge. This is likely the premise that Waterfall was built upon. |'''process'''|'''Building a Bridge'''|'''Building a Web App'''| |Analysis:|How Long?!-
-!What's it gonna hold?!-
-!What weather does it need to endure?|What's the feature set?!-
-!How many hits?!-
-!How much data?!-
-!What platform?| |Design:|Draw diagrams.!-
-!Do calculations.!-
-!Build miniature model and stick it a wind tunnel.|Think about high level architechture.!-
-!Draw class diagrams.!-
-!Draw some dynamic runtime diagrams.| |Implementation|Build the bridge.|Write the code.| As an enlightened agilist, I know better than this. Building software isn't like building a bridge. But what is it like then? There is a craftsmanship movement that says software is a craft similar to woodworking or blacksmithing. I believe this is true. However, I can't say that building a software system is like building a wooden table or a chainmail shirt. Having built both a wooden table and chainmail shirt I can attest the the fact that these analogies don't capture the depth or complexity in software. So what does? Cities! Building software is like building a city. No city starts with an analysis committee to decide how may people are going to live there. The population of a city changes over time. The infrastructure of cities is not designed before the city is built. A city's infrastructure starts simple and evolves over time as the city grows and changes. Cities are not built in one fell swoop. Cities start as small towns and are built up over time as new needs arise. For those who have had the privilege, think about the first time you played !-SimCity-!. Do you remember the first time playing, just trying to figure out the rules. You probably started by building a small residential, commercial, and industrial zone along with a couple roads to connect them and a power plant. It wasn't long before these zones were fully populated at which point the citizens began to complain about crime. So you had to build a police station and add more building zones. Soon these were fully populated and the citizens complained about other problems. As the needs would arise you had to add a fire station, schools, libraries, and eventually, an airport, sports stadium, and the coveted Archology. That's how I started. Although functional, my first city was eternally haunted by pollution, traffic, crime, poverty, and other normal city problems. This wasn't good enough. I wanted to build the perfect city; A city without all those normal city problems. So I pulled out a piece of paper and designed a city where the industrial zones where far from the residential zone. This avoided pollution. I drew an elegant highway system that was sure to avoid any form of traffic. The city layout was an even grid to evenly distribute police and fire station coverage. It was perfect! I started a new game to build my perfect city. In an hour I was bankrupt. I tried again, and again I went bankrupt. I must have tried a dozens times to build the perfect city and went bankrupt every time. Finally I gave up and reverted by to my very first approach..... start small and build as needed. This more agile approach seemed to work every time. !c !3 Building software is like building a city. Start small and go from there. ---- !commentForm !* Mon, 14 Mar 2005 20:19:23, Hui Deng, Yeah, Anything complex will follow the same rule. *! !* Tue, 15 Mar 2005 00:02:08, Kelley Harris, Very nice analogy for software. Adds time dimension and more complexity I like that the city analogy includes the time dimension, evolution, and enough complexity that most people would be struck by the limits of their ability to predict the future. Consider weaving in a comment about the cost of change curve. Other analogies with time dimension: * growing a company * growing a garden * developing a farm * developing a network (or the internet) *! !* Tue, 15 Mar 2005 06:14:48, Denis Krukovsky, My wife is an Architect. She's real Archirtect, she designs houses. She heard words like Analysis and Architecture from me and wondered why I'm professionally using words from her profession. Then she saw my diagrams, and she told me the same I just read. Denis Krukovsky <http://dotuseful.sourceforge.net/> *! !* Wed, 16 Mar 2005 00:16:42, Chris Noe, Deeper analogies I like the city analogy. How about exploring this a little further by looking at specific activities in developing a software system. In the evolution of a city, what would be the analogies for: prototyping refactoring debugging performance tuning configuration management defining requirements database conversion archiving involving stakeholders federating with other systems open source continuous integration backing out a deployment the system has crashed What city-building analogies might we learn from? Which things do we do better in software? What other software activities might have urban analogies?? *! !* Wed, 16 Mar 2005 14:07:07, Joseph Graves, More analogies The usual poor analogy I hear is "building a house" - I once had a contest to try to find 100 better analogies, but I must admit SimCity is quite good. I personally liked Barbecue (as opposed to Ronco Sho-Time Rotisserie set it and forget it software development). *! !* Thu, 17 Mar 2005 14:40:18, MicahMartin, Deeper analogies explored This is interesting.... * '''Refactoring:''' - construction. Chicago suburbs are notoriously slow at refactoring. * '''Debugging:''' - This could be a lot of things... Why is Main street so congested? Why does Hinkston Park flood periodically? Why is there so much crime on the south side? * '''involving stakeholders:''' - democracy/voting * '''open source:''' - communes? * '''the system has crashed:''' - power failures, blizzards, hurricanes, ... *! !* Thu, 17 Mar 2005 19:56:19, Erik Meade, That's pretty sweet. It also helps to explain the tie in with <http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki?ChristopherAlexander> the only "real" architect I have met said Christopher Alexander was not well recieved in his field. *!

Om Chinese Migrants Abroad
Fast-paced economic growth in Southeast Asia from the late 1960s until the mid-1990s brought increased attention to the overseas Chinese as an economically successful diaspora and their role in this economic growth. Events that followed, such as the transfer of Hong Kong and Macau to the People's Republic of China, the election of a non-KMT government in Taiwan, the Asian economic crisis and the plight of overseas Chinese in Indonesia as a result, and the durability of the Singapore economy during this same crisis, have helped to sustain this attention.The study of the overseas Chinese has by now become a global enterprise, raising new theoretical problems and empirical challenges. New case studies of overseas Chinese, such as those on communities in North America, Cuba, India, and South Africa, continually unveil different perspectives. New kinds of transnational connectivities linking Chinese communities are also being identified. It is now possible to make broader generalizations of a Chinese diaspora, on a global basis. Further, the intensifying study of the overseas Chinese has stimulated renewed intellectual vigor in other areas of research. The transnational and transregional activities of overseas Chinese, for example, pose serious challenges to analytical concepts of regional divides such as that between East and Southeast Asia.Despite the increased attention, new data, and the changing theoretical paradigms, basic questions concerning the overseas Chinese remain. The papers in this volume seek to understand the overseas Chinese migrants not just in terms of the overall Chinese diaspora per se, but also local Chinese migrants adapting to local societies, in different national contexts.Contents: Chineseness and "Overseas" Chinese Identifications and Identities of a Migrant Community:Five Southeast Asian Chinese Empire-Builders: Commonalities and Differences (J Mackie)Providers, Protectors, Guardians: Migration and Reconstruction of Masculinities (R Hibbins)Tasting the Night: Food, Ethnic Transaction, and the Pleasure of Chineseness in Malaysia (S-C Yao)Multiple Identities among the Returned Overseas Chinese in Hong Kong (J K Chin) Chinese or Western Education?

I really wanted to step outside of my comfort zone today and do something a little bit creative with my makeup!
I actually LOVE it! I really didn't expect to. It's kinda make me laugh because I'm doing the weekly food shop with my Husband and son when he gets home from work and I'm legit going like this 😂!
Too glam to give a damn that's what I say!
I spent quite a lot of time on this one, blending each colour. From left to right there's warm yellow, baby pink, darker pink, deep orange, and blue! I finished off with some liner and lashes for DRAMA. I think I accomplished what I set out to do, which is always a great feeling!
What do you think of this look? And would you ever rock multicoloured eyeshadow?

Editing a Monitoring Policy for System Monitoring
You can update an existing monitoring policy to satisfy changes within your environment.
Before You Begin
Review the following considerations before you edit a monitoring policy:
- If you rename a policy that is being used in the dashboard, the data is indexed against the new policy name. Therefore, you will see the old and new policy listed on the dashboard.
- When you edit any of the policy properties, the changes affect only the data that is indexed after the policy change.
Important: If you make incorrect changes and you need to re-index all the data, you must delete and recreate the policy. However, if data that you previously indexed is no longer available, you might need to keep the existing policy even if you create a new one.
- From the CommCell Browser, expand Policies and click Monitoring Policies.
- Right-click the monitoring_policy, click Edit, and make the necessary changes:
Option Description Policy Opens the Monitoring Policy wizard. Security Manages user permissions on the monitoring policy. For instructions, see Setting Access Permissions to Monitoring Policies.

When I work for someone, then he is indebted to pay me. That's a fair statement. But when I count my works (as a matter of earning faith in God) as being something for which God is indebted to pay me, I'm in big trouble, for God is indebted to no one.
The Bible says, "Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt. But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness, just as David also describes the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works." (Romans 4:4-6)
Just what is this matter of imputation? In this context, it means count toward or credit. Because there is no way we can work enough to make God indebted to us, our work – our effort to earn faith – is in vain; that is, it is empty and meaningless.
But there is grace, God's grace, which covers our flesh-mindedness and sinful nature! Because He doesn't owe us anything, we cannot earn His favor or pleasure or eternal life. But for the one who believes in Him, a credit for righteousness is given: Grace is given.
Therefore, grace equals credit for righteousness. The Scripture shows here why this is not a matter of works – just simply a matter of confessing Jesus is Lord and believing that God raised His Son from being dead: a matter of one's heart, not one's hands – a matter of faith, not works (Romans 10:9-10).
Sounds to me as if all the work has been done for us.
