Photographer's Note
ESCANDINÁVIA 2014: Série sobre a minha viagem à NORUEGA e às cidades de ESTOCOLMO (Capital da Suécia) e de COPENHAGUE (Capital da Dinamarca), entre os dias 21 de Junho e 12 de Julho de 2014 - Nº 002 !
SCANDINAVIA 2014: Series on my trip to NORWAY and to the cities of STOCKHOLM (Sweden's Capital City) and COPENHAGEN (Denmark's Capital City), from June 21st to July 12th, 2014 - #002 !
For this trip, I took a long flight: first, I flew from GRU INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (GUARULHOS/SP/BRAZIL) to DOHA HAMAD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (DOHA/QATAR) and, then, from there to OSLO GARDERMOEN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (NORWAY)! I left BRAZIL on the first hours of June 21st and arrived a couple of hours after midday in Oslo, on the 22nd!
Although I was tired, I enjoyed the whole flight and everything I saw! And, after checking in, I started my Oslo's strolling around! However, my best day in the city was on JUNE 23rd, when I had almost 24 hours of sunlight to enjoy that city!
Here's my SECOND picture of that trip I really loved!
It was taken in VIGELAND PARK, one of Oslo's highlights!
Other pov and composition for some of the details one can find and enjoy over there: the fountain and the monolith !
Due to some previous comments, I'd like to add that:
- I didn't have a good first impression of Norway, because OSLO is not the most beautiful city in the World. My expectations were high, though, and that certainly has a strong influence on (my) first impressions! However, NORWAY was above my expectations as a Country and other cities, such as BERGEN, AALESUND and TROMSO, were such wonderful urban experiences! Most of all, NORWAY is pure NATURE, with magnificient locations and two weeks were not enough to visit everything, but I surely had a superb impression and would go back there for sure!
- Well, after all, I found out some beautiful spots in OSLO and I truly enjoyed it!
- That park is also unique, specially for all the sculptures that are spread all over that place! Yes, sometimes they're weird, strange, grotesque... I certainly had that feeling too, while strolling around, however, that's why it is a one and only place in the World!
Cheers to all my TE friends !!!!

Hi Neyvan,
Looking at this picture I feel good memories. My first visit about 40 years ago, the last visit, 3 years ago. The second time with a lot more tourist, but just as fascinating as the first time. And of course with much more (digital) photos.
Groet Rob

Hello Ney,
Another fine composition from this attractive public park. The eyes move naturally up the frame from the pretty flower beds past the people and the fountain toward the curious column like structure, which makes an excellent focal point. Light, colours and sharpness are all very much to my taste.
timecapturer (49288) 2014-08-12 4:28
Hi Ney
this certainly looks like a beautiful place, and with this strong blast of red as a fg all the more enticing and distinctive.

Un superbe cadrage vertical. Surtout à partir de ces très belles fleurs rouges en ouverture, pour continuer vers la fontaine et ensuite vers l'obélisque dans un ciel parfait.

Gabby Douglas to Publish Inspirational Memoir
The 16-year-old Olympic gold medalist's book will hit stores this December
Olympic Gold Medalist Gabby Douglas announced Thursday that she will write an "inspirational memoir," planned for December 2012 publication.
The book, to be titled Grace, Gold and Glory, My Leap of Faith, will chronicle the 16-year-old's early life, how she left her family in Virginia at age 12 to train 3,000 miles away and her path to gold at the 2012 Summer Olympics.
Upon the announcement, Douglas said, "Even before I competed in the Olympics, I always wanted to write a book."
Her memoir, she adds, "will also be about how much my family and I have overcome during our journey. It hasn't been easy." She hopes people will read her story "and think anything is possible."
Zondervan media company acquired the book.
In a statement, HarperCollins senior vice-president Lisa Sharkey said, "Gabby Douglas shines even more brightly than her Olympic Gold Meals. The reason is her inner strength and strong faith."

You're a graphic designer, so you don't need to worry about web design, right? Wrong. It's an increasingly important skill for designers – and it can be the thing that sets you apart when you're competing with other designers for a job.
"You can find jobs as a graphic designer if you don't know how to code, but I still think it's a crucial skill for designers – maybe even more than ever before," says freelance graphic and web designer Mirko Humbert.
Don't panic, you don't need to be a fully fledged programmer, "but you do have to be 'code-literate' to do anything related to building websites or apps," says Humbert. "This is what will help you land a job, or new projects if you are a freelancer."
01. Start with free resources
There are plenty of resources to get you started. Creative director Matt Rice of London studio Sennep recommends Codecademy. "It a great place to start for beginners and the lessons are free," he explains. CodePen is another good place to start experimenting. "It's a good resource for inspiration in terms of more playful things you can do with code," Rice adds.
02. Study the masters
That was more or less how Rice originally approached coding. "I took people's cool experiments, looked at the code and tried to work out how they were done, or a least manipulate them to create something myself," he explains.
03. Learn by doing
Coding is largely a question of learning by doing, Humbert believes. "Build real-life projects that give you results you can share in your portfolio," he advises. "For example, you can try to build a WordPress plugin that you can then share with the community, and get some feedback from an experienced developer."

Ads on Premium Publishers' Sites Are 3 Times More Effective at Boosting Brand Favorability
ComScore report cites 'halo effect' of high-quality content
Advertising on the websites of premium publishers, such as The New York Times and Hearst properties, is three times as effective as it is on those of nonpremium publishers at boosting brand favorability and making users more likely to recommend products or services, according to a study by comScore.
The study, released today, examined the online display campaigns of 15 large brands to compare advertising inventory and brand lift between premium publishers and all other publishers. The study included household goods, auto, consumer electronics and telecom brands. The publishers that were part of the study were all part of Digital Content Next, a trade group formerly known as the Online Publishers Association that includes dozens of the best-known publications including The New York Times, ABC, NPR and Condé Nast.
"This outsized mid-funnel performance is of particular significance for the large consumer brands that drive the majority of digital ad spending," wrote Andrew Lipsman, the author of the report. "These brands will tend to have already established high brand awareness and therefore prefer to focus more on influencing how consumers feel about the brand so that they are more likely to purchase that brand when they are in the market to do so."
ComScore said the boost in favorability could partially be a result of better viewability rates on premium websites—50 percent compared with 45 percent for non-DCN publishers. The study found that premium publishers also were better at optimizing their website designs around viewability, which led to users spending more time on their pages and ultimately to see fully rendered ads. DCN publishers also were less likely to "stuff" low-quality ads at the bottom of pages or have ads that weren't viewable at all.
Along with the better viewability, comScore said the ads on premium websites also benefited from a "halo effect" that comes from the quality and subject matter of articles where the ads are seen. While DCN publishers' effectiveness was 67 percent higher overall, 51 percent of that increase came from the halo effect, according to the report.
According to comScore, larger and more well established brands focused less on awareness and more on driving results could also benefit from directing more of their online spending to premium publishers.
"Advertisers are likely to benefit from driving gains across all key brand lift metrics when advertising on premium publisher sites," according to the report. "But they may derive especially strong benefit in advertising on premium sites when they are specifically focused on increasing how consumers feel about their brands."
Here are some more findings from the report:

The EU made my dream a reality - but Brexit could have shattered it
- Credit: Empics Entertainment
When ELLIE KIELLER was 4 years old she watched a Disney film and fell in love with Paris. Next month she will move there - but first she'll be marching in London to make sure others can make their European dream a reality.
I'm 4 years old. I've just watched Disney's The Aristocats and I fall in love with the idea of, one day, living in Paris.
I'm 14 years old. My high school language lessons have purpose, give me empowerment and make me want to enjoy and experience the world I live in to the full. I know that I am free to safely travel around a whole continent of opportunity and I plan to do so as much as possible.
I'm now 24 years old and in 10 days in time, I'm making my dream of living and working in Paris come true.
MORE: All you need to know about the People's Vote March
Growing up as a citizen of the of the European Union has not only helped me to follow my dreams but has taught me to exceed them. I have been afforded opportunities to travel, to develop my independence as a young woman in a safe and empowering way and to be interested in and to satisfy my interest in places and people beyond the UK. The EU has given me the legal status and ability to search for the job that I'm starting next month but it's also given me the courage to say go for it and the communication skills, that extend beyond a shared language, that I'll need to do it.
You may also want to watch:
But, the EU has not only given me opportunities to travel and to grow; it has also undoubtedly enriched my experience of the UK. I grew up in the beautiful city of Manchester surrounded not only by the wonderful people of Manchester but also by friends, teachers and community leaders from across the continent. As a child, I was consistently absorbing others' experiences, celebrating different cultures and languages and learning about families that were different from my own. I can see only now that I'm older and I understand myself (a little bit) more that that childhood experience was invaluable. At my most impressionable, I was learning not only to be 'tolerant' of others but to love and to celebrate what made us all who we were; without those people around me and without those lessons, I am sure I would not be the outgoing and open-minded woman that I am proud to be today.
And those invaluable lessons didn't stop when I 'grew up'. Attending the University of Birmingham, I was taught by, studied and worked with people from across the European Union. My lecturers enriched my curriculum with their interests and specialist knowledge, my friends on Erasmus schemes shared a different perspective and their understanding of issues and topics we navigated together. I watched and visited as my UK friends studied abroad, developed themselves, built relationships and grew professionally in other European Countries; none of which would have been possible without EU benefits such as the Erasmus scheme and Freedom of Movement. The EU provided both me and all of those people with a wealth of opportunity that is now threatened in its entirety by making a mess of a Brexit that no one voted for.

Whilst I was an avid Remainer, for all of the reasons outlined above and many more, I do respect that in 2016, other people had votes and opinions that differed from mine. However, 2 years later, the government have not been able to make sense of the Brexit that was promised and that people voted for. Issues, such as the Irish border, our NHS staff and stocks of vital medication were not even considered and discussed during the referendum campaign. Add into this electoral fraud from the Leave campaign and it's fair to say that the UK are heading in a direction that no-one even discussed, never mind actually voted for.

Does Fertilizer Expire?
Fertilizers are available in dry or liquid form, and with or without added herbicides and pesticides. The makeup of a fertilizer determines whether or not its effectiveness dwindles over time.
Pure Dry Fertilizer
A dry fertilizer is essentially just nutrients for soil. These types of fertilizers have an indefinite shelf life, meaning they do not expire.
Liquid Fertilizer
The shelf life of a liquid fertilizer depends on whether the solution is made from organic matter or minerals. Fertilizers made from minerals do not expire but may settle in the bottle; shake before using. If unsure, consult the manufacturer's website for specifics about the makeup of your specific fertilizer brand.

…or the universal adoption of round-the-clock patient guards or restraint devices, it's hard to go along with the notion that hospital falls should be so-called "never events". (Happy Hospitalist, Jan. 15, Feb. 20). Nor is the concept much more useful when it comes to patient suicide attempts or hypoglycemia, among other misadventures (White Coat Rants, Feb. 5)(via KevinMD). Related: letters section, 2004 (pressure wounds/bedsores).
One Comment
The lawsuit has all the features of a product. It is inherently harmful in its ordinary use. I suggest strict liability apply to all weak cases.
Appellate decision are based on judge errors in the law, not on errors of facts. All reversed decisions are "never events." The judge should not get paid for any reversed decision.

One month and no words. So many thoughts. So many opinions. So many reasons to write. So many excuses why I didn't. None of them valid. The ongoing delay involved my nemesis, procrastination, catching up with me and consuming almost every waking hour beyond my regular workday. Late nights of grading student work, preparing awards, planning holiday art projects, inputting grades, and reviewing tedious report card categories offered little time to "just sit and write." Oh, how I love to "just sit and write!" Teaching pays the bills though, so of course I gave it my top priority and endured the limited sleep. Truth be told, I chose to "just sit and write" many times prior to that, instead of grading stacks of student work. So, I guess it was time for the pendulum shift. Add holiday shopping and celebrations into the mix too.
I would be remiss to not mention that the San Bernardino terror attack on December 2, 2015, left me speechless, as well. In the beginning, when I tried to write my thoughts for you, every word just seemed trivial. In the coming weeks, however, I do plan to share my thoughts with you on the topic. I'm ready. In the meantime, I will say that it was too close to home for me, literally. I live in a neighboring city, just five miles from the attack. No family member or friend of mine was a victim, but I knew (or knew of) people who were directly affected. And there you have it, the last reason. No words for almost five weeks.
My time management and organizational skills have been put to the test this year. Since starting the personal blog this year, I often find myself struggling to find the balance between teaching effectively, writing a weekly blog, writing for a local newspaper, eating more plant-based food, exercising consistently, getting 7-8 hours of sleep, and reading more. In addition, I try to make a conscious effort not to ignore, or alienate, my family and friends. So far, so good in that last category. I think.
This sounds a lot like whining; I know. What's ironic is that, despite the struggle to balance, I absolutely love that I have finally shouted to the world, "I love to write!" I miss writing when I'm not doing it. So, I don't believe that whining is the right word. I know that other people have similar struggles trying to find the perfect balance in their life. I am just being honest. I am being real. I am being vulnerable. That's where my writing takes me. It takes me to the place deep down to the core of my inner thoughts and shows me what I am really feeling.
Writing is my ultimate happy place. People are important too. Being a writer can often cause an inner struggle between solitude and socialization though. Being alone with my ideas is necessary when writing. However, I have learned to recognize that simple things, such as a daily dinner conversation with my husband, an unexpected phone call from my son, or a 2+ hour visit with my grandma over a glass of red wine, allows me to take a breath of fresh air and recharge. Sometimes, it even adds new material for future projects. Multiple holiday celebrations brought a lot of quality time with immediate and extended family, so I am fully recharged and ready to write in 2016!
It was January 1, 2015 that I took the first step towards my writing goal. It was on that day that I chose my domain and website name. The next day began the process of learning how to create a personal blog website. Overall, the experience of creating and maintaining the site has been more rewarding than exhausting. I'm still smiling!
There are still so many observations and thoughts waiting to be written in the New Year. Thank you for choosing to spend your time reading Life Through My Eyes DGP and walking this journey with me so far.
May you find good health, personal success, meaningful relationships and infinite joy in 2016.

Since I got a lot of questions over my Instagram account,
I finally decided to share this new trick I've learned recently.
Things you need?
A round brush, a black ink or any black paint or watercolor would do, paper and a powerful witty quote.
If you don't have Photoshop yet, I recommend you to download one first. In my case, I use Photoshop CS6.
1. Once you have it installed Photoshop successfully, open the photo you want to use as your background
then open the scanned copy of your handwritten brush quote (you may also take a photo of it instead).
2.Cut the text you want to use from the scanned copy and paste it in your chosen photo.
3. After doing that, go to your LAYERS section and scroll down the button beside Opacity
and choose between Linear Burn, Multiply or Darken.
4. Once you're satisfied with the result, it's time save your photo cause you're done!
Have you tried doing this already? Show me your works by tagging me on instagram @iamthedoll or use my hashtag #SOSWrites.

Turn your laptop lid into a chalkboard, write hipster slogans, annoy the whole coffee shop
I want this. I feel shame for wanting this:
DrawAttention's Blackboard is a wipe clean chalkboard skin for your laptop's lid. It works with chalk, neon dry-erase pens and opaque wet-erase pens.
It's not actually made of slate but treated vinyl and the company promises it's durable. I intend to get one and put that claim to the test.

Are you interested in a non-surgical, minimally-invasive aesthetic treatment that reduces the visible signs of aging and restores a younger-looking appearance? Radiesse® injectable dermal filler may be the right choice for you! Jon Ric International Health and Wellness offers this injectable treatment to patients who are interested in achieving instant, natural-looking results with little to no downtime or recovery period.
Benefits of Radiesse®
- Natural-looking results
- Little to no downtime
- Quick treatment sessions
- Immediate results
- High patient satisfaction
- Stimulates natural collagen production
Do you want to find out how you can reduce the visible effects of age and improve the overall quality of your skin with the Radiesse® injectable dermal filler treatments offered at Jon Ric International Health and Wellness? Contact our office in Edmond today for more information or to schedule a consultation with a member of our expert team!
What is Radiesse®?
This injectable dermal filler is made up of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres that work to stimulate the body's natural production of collagen and can be used to improve moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds and restore facial volume that has been lost during the natural aging process. The CaHa microspheres found in Radiesse® are gradually broken down by the body, leaving behind the new collagen that combats the visible signs of age at a cellular level.
Common treatment areas include:
- Smile lines
- Chin wrinkles
- Marionette lines
- Pre-jowl folds
- Corners of the mouth
How long will results last?
Most patients can see visible improvement in the treated area immediately following an injection session. Results of Radiesse® injections can last for up to one year. Results may vary from patient to patient depending on the area being treated and the severity of aging.
Are there any side effects?
While adverse reactions to Radiesse® are rare, some patients may experience injection-related side effects, including tenderness, bruising, discomfort, swelling, and/or itching at the injection site. These are temporary side effects and are typically mild. These side effects usually resolve on their own within a few days of your injection session.
Am I a candidate?
Men and women who are interested in restoring lost facial volume and improving the appearance of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds are potential candidates for this injectable treatment. During your consultation, we will review your medical history, general health, and goals of treatments, and determine if Radiesse® is the right dermal filler for you.
Are you interested in learning more about the benefits of the Radiesse® injectable treatments offered at Jon Ric International Health and Wellness?

New Mercedes-Benz CLS
New Mercedes-Benz CLS - from £44,000
New Mercedes-Benz CLS
The new Mercedes-Benz CLS will be available from late summer and will have a starting price of around £44,000 with prices finishing at an estimated £74,000. The new CLS has a maximum speed of 153mph, will get from 0-60mph in around 7 seconds and will give 37.2mpg on a combinded cycle. The standard safety features on the new CLS include Twin front, side & window airbags, ABS and ESP.
The diesel is the CLS for those looking to bypass big fuel bills. It manages a very creditable 37.2mpg along with 200g/km CO2 emissions, making it a viable option for company car users. The CLS 350 CGI can achieve 31mpg, so it too is hardly crippling to run in the scheme of things. Costs rise sharply once you progress onto the V8 CLS 500 with 24mpg and 275g/km on the cards. Then it's the CLS 63 AMG which returns 19mpg and emits 345g/km of CO2.

Puppy Socialization in Fresno, CA
What is it?
Socialization is the developmental process whereby puppies and adolescent dogs familiarize themselves with their constantly changing surroundings. It is how they work out what is safe and good as opposed to what is dangerous and not-so-good.
Anything you want your puppy to cheerfully accept as an adult—people of all kinds, animals, things, and situations—you must introduce her to often and in a positive manner in the first 6 months of her life. Then you have to make sure she stays comfortable with all these new things.
Proper socialization combined with positive reinforcement-based training in the context of a group puppy class helps puppies grow into well-adjusted pets.
But puppies love everything already!
Sure they do. Until the early stage of their development draws to a close at approximately 16 weeks of age. At that point, they become wary of other dogs if they have met too few. And down the road, puppies can become shy or growly around children or strangers, too, unless they have met and enjoyed meeting a bunch of them.
Under-socialized dogs are at much greater risk of developing all sorts of behavioral problems stemming from fear—aggression, agoraphobia, and reactivity towards certain people and animals, for example.
Teach your puppy that the world is safe and prevent behavior problems in the future.
How to socialize your puppy.
Step 1. If your puppy seems even a bit nervous, move a little distance away, give her treats, and then walk away—anything she is unsure about should be encountered in short bursts.
Step 2. As soon as your puppy seems more relaxed, try again. As she sees or hears the thing that scared her before, start your cheerful praise and break out the treats.
Step 3. If your puppy did not seem nervous with the new thing or acts curious about it after she has been treated, go back and let her investigate a little more. Again, praise and treat.
House training, also known as potty training, is the most important behavior for an indoor dog to learn. Inappropriate elimination is the leading cause of dogs being relinquished to a shelter. Here are the top tips on how to potty train your puppy from a certified professional dog trainer in Fresno, CA.
1. Prevent Accidents from Happening
Direct supervision is crucial. You can use your puppy's leash to tether him to you as a reminder to keep your eyes on him at all possible times. If you are not available to supervise with your full attention confine him to a small area or a crate.
2. Reward Elimination in the Correct Area
Accompany your puppy on a leash to your chosen elimination location. Use the same exit route from inside your home to the specific area of your yard. Do not look, talk or play with your puppy until he eliminates. Right after he goes you can offer praise, a treat and if in a secured area, you can offer play time off leash.
3. Anticipate When your Puppy Needs to Go
Keep your puppy's potty schedule consistent. Start an elimination, feeding and activity log in order to learn your puppy's routine. Initially, schedule repeated trips to the designated potty area. Don't forget to take additional potty breaks after activity changes such as: eating, sleeping, playing and training.
4. What to Do When Accidents Happen
Do not punish your dog when an accident happens. Screaming, swatting or forcing your dog's face in the offended area will teach him to be fearful of you and not to eliminate in front of you. Punishment never teaches your puppy where to go.
5. Clean Soiled Locations Thoroughly
Dogs will often be attracted to spots where they have previously eliminated so it is extremely important to thoroughly clean previously soiled areas with an enzymatic cleaner. After applying the cleaner, allow the area to dry and then apply a pine or citrus scented disinfectant. Avoid applying products containing ammonia, vinegar or bleach as these products can attract your puppy back to the area.
The word is out that early puppy socialization is one of the best things you can do for your pup! Recent studies indicate that under-socialized dogs are at greater risk of developing behavioral problems such as aggression, anxiety, and reactivity towards other animals and unfamiliar people. Unfortunately, these problems often end up with the dog unnecessarily discarded. However, most Veterinarians now recommend enrolling your new furry family member in an early socialization class. But what are the important components of a good socialization class? Here are a few tips to point you in the right direction.
1. The Earlier the Better
There is a small window of opportunity, typically between 4 to 14 weeks of age, when puppies are developmentally open to new experiences. Remember that dogs age faster than humans and if you wait until 6 months, your pup is practically a teenager in human terms. Imagine a human child who has never been to school or exposed to other kids until 12 years of age! Behaviors that are cute in puppies can become destructive and dangerous in a fully grown dog. A well-constructed puppy class will recognize the importance of early socialization and often allow enrollment as early as 8 weeks of age. Of course, this should be contingent on a recent physical exam by a veterinarian, proof of current vaccination and appropriate parasite prevention protocol.
2. Not Just Play
As fun as it is to watch, puppy socialization classes should not just be about puppies chasing, racing and wrestling with each other. Controlled, off leash social interaction is great way for puppies to learn to communicate with other puppies but a well-rounded class curriculum is also important. This should include socialization to novelty items and different people, foundation training and prevention topics such as potty and crate training.
3. Think Safety First
How safe from disease can classes be if the puppies are not fully vaccinated? Safer than you think! A recent study published in the Journal of the American Animal Hospital Association found that "puppies vaccinated at least once prior to starting puppy classes at less than 16 weeks of age were at no more risk of being diagnosed with Canine Parvovirus infection than vaccinated puppies that did not attend classes". That being said, scope out the class location before you arrive with your pup. Things to be on the lookout for are a tidy training area that is cleaned before and after with a parvocidal disinfectant, toy & novelty items that are cleaned thoroughly after each use, and potty accidents that are immediately cleaned up. Veterinary hospitals are most often the best venue for hosting puppy socialization classes. Veterinary hospitals serve as a safe and clean location, hold easy access to vaccination records and have the added benefit of creating an initial positive association between your pup and the hospital so your puppy learns to enjoy future visits.

Find the Best Accommodation Deals
Many travellers are searching for Shopping In Bangkok Pattaya,Bangkok can well be described as a city of humble beginnings. In fact around 200 years ago, it was simply a small trading center and port community. Despite the fact that the city had grown rapidly and become renowned for being a modern and vibrant place, it has impressively retained its splendid and enchanting glory. That's why a visit to Bangkok should be on everyone's bucket list. You can find Shopping In Bangkok Pattaya travel information.
Searching for Shopping In Bangkok Pattaya. The Embassy of The People's Republic of China Bangkok Chonlapruk Lakeside Hotel Monkey Samui Hostel Blue Canyon Country Club Thalang Coral Cove Chalet Ban Phunarin
Shopping In Bangkok Pattaya, Wat Pho
Also referred to as Wat Chetuphon, this really is a temple which was designed for King Rama in Bangkok hundreds of in the past. It is considered to be a spot where people can receive feelings, and was considered among the first pharmacies in all of Bangkok. Also, it is the position of the first university that has been started by a descendent of King Rama, a place where you may now get not merely traditional medicine but a foot massage at very inexpensive prices. It is known mostly for your Temple from the Reclining Buddha which is actually a Buddha which is lying down perched on his arm. It can be enormous, roughly 15 m high by 45 m long, and might basically be viewed in sections due to the size. There are lots of beautiful precious stones that were in lead in the soles in the feet, an overall total quantity of 108 stones total. This really is a number linked to procession, the wobble from the earth, something which is constructed into lots of the temples throughout Thailand.
The Grand Palace
It is really an absolutely beautiful structure that has quite a bit of history, and is the house of what is called Wat Phra Kaeo. It is here that the emerald or jade Buddha can be obtained, in this particular palace internal 1782, the residence of your royalty which were in control of the continent back then. This palace includes two hours of not only the palace itself but the Wat Phra Kaew Tour. Our recommendation is that you start out early in the morning to benefit from everything that you will be capable of seeing, or just execute a half day sightseeing tour to discover either one.
Wat Arun
You will notice an attractive representation of your ancient battles that employed to occur between Burma and Siam. This really is a mixture of Royal Palace and Chapel, and if you are able to climb to the top right before sunset, you will observe direct sunlight setting in the Chao Praya River, a beautiful sight to behold.
The Giant Swing
Facing precisely what is called Wat Suthat is what the locals call the giant swing. It is a 27 m high structure, use for religious ceremonies, and its particular purpose is to undergo a ritual that requires groups of three people visiting the top and walking across to the narrow board. There have been an important quantity of fatal accidents during the 1930s which make them not utilize this as being a ritual anymore. However, it is a beautiful sight to see, especially in front of Wat Suthat.
Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
This is literally something out from the movies, a real floating market that is certainly about one hour away from Bangkok. It can be considered by some to get the Venice in the East, much like exactly how the folks that component of Italy do so many things in the water. Additionally it is a tourist trap due to how everyone is wanting to check this out market which is completely floating on boats manned by people selling their goods. However, whenever you do go, you will be treated to some of the most delicious food which is absolutely fresh, served inside an authentic way.
Lumpini Park
For those who have time, it is possible to head over to Lumpini Park which is a literal oasis in the midst of the architecture and buildings of Bangkok. There are many lawns you could hang out at, Chinese pagodas, and you will find a small lake that one could take a boat on. Is good for relaxing because the park is really tranquil, despite all the skyscrapers which can be surrounding it in every directions. The park is a place where antigovernment protests have occurred, so just make sure that once you decide to travel there, it's just people chilling out to unwind.
There are numerous things that you could see in Bangkok, which are some of the places that you can go which can be just a little out-of-the-way. You can visit the skyscrapers if you want to, and have a great view of the area, however these places down on earth are really beautiful and will give you a taste of methods Bangkok perhaps once was before modernization.

Branch - Fishing and Foodways
Until the mid-1970s, salt cod was the main fish product from Branch. The catch was landed, gutted and split on the marginal wharves along the Gut. In earlier years, marginal wharves and fish stages lined the Gut on both sides. The east side was known as Across the Gut and a footbridge spanned the channel.
The Back of the Beach and the Landwash are great local spots to collect kelp-- used to fertilize vegetable gardens, flower gardens and grass. Capelin is another natural fertilizer that can be found on Back of the Beach and in the Landwash.

1969 Volkswagen Bus/Vanagon WeatfaliaSellingmy 1969 VW Westfalia camper. This is a Western bus spending most of its life in Colorado. I had it shipped to Ohio and I recently had a 1776 dual carb motor professionally built and installed by Drew's Offroad in Hamilton OH (receipt provided) to give her the power to comfortably cruise down the highway at modern speeds, which she easily does. Less than 100 miles on motor since it was built. Hermaiden voyage with the new motor was to Grateful Dead show inCincinnati this summer. We went early to tailgate at the show and had a blast! Everyone who passed by wanted to check her out or offered to buy her. I was not wanting to sell her then and its hard to let her go now, but I have an abundance of vehicles and we just bought a camper since it has air conditioning and is more comfortable to camp in than the Westy. This is the only reason I'm selling the bus.
When the motor was installed I had them reseal thetransmission as well. No drips or drops underneath her at all! Very dependable, good brakes, good steering. Although I have not owned this bus since new Ibelieve the miles to be original. She has not had any significantrestoration done to her. She may have hadonerespray at some point in her life. This is not concourse restored bus but is certainly a verypresentable, useable camper than you can be proud to own and have the piece of mind and expectation that she will bedependable for years to come, due to the fresh professionally built motor. However, as she is approaching 50 years old and I do not know your maintenance habits I am selling her AS IS, yet with good karma.
Please ask any and all questions prior to purchase. I will behappy to answer. Please have funds arranged prior to bidding. Please only bid if you intend to follow through with the purchase asresisting is a hassle and I have to file against non paying bidder to get my listing fees back.

Execution of Sheikh Nimr to Spark Revolution in S. Arabia: Activists
Several Saudi rights activists warned Riyadh that execution of the prominent Shiite cleric, Sheikh Nimr Baqir al-Nimr, would set fire to Saudi Arabia.
"The Saudi people will ask for a halt in the execution of the death sentence (for Sheikh Nimr) by staging peaceful rallies and protests," Sheikh Abbas al-Qatifi told FNA on Saturday.
Stressing the strong opposition of Saudi Arabia's Eastern province to the execution of the Shiite cleric, he said, "The case of Sheikh Nimr is a Saudi show played by the Saudi princes at the order of the US and the Zionist regime as part of a plot in the country and even other Islamic countries."
Also in relevant remarks today, Abdolhadi al-Sattari, another Saudi rights activist, told FNA that the Saudi officials have resorted to terrorists to suppress the Shiites inside and outside Saudi Arabia.
He warned that the Eastern province's people will take revenge for the blood of their martyrs.
Also other rights activists said that the Saudi youth have condemned plans to execute Sheikh Nimr and are preparing themselves for a big revolution against the country's cruel rulers.
An informed Saudi source told FNA on Wednesday that Riyadh planned to execute Sheikh Nimr on May 14.
"The Saudi regime plans to execute Sheikh Nimr on the death anniversary of Nayef bin Abdullah, the former Saudi crown prince," the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of his information, said.
The source said the Saudi rulers know that the move would engulf the monarchy in the flames of unrest and they might have to pay a heavy price for the execution of Sheikh Nimr, and they have prepared riot combat plans after consultations with several western security experts.
Nimr was attacked and arrested in the Qatif region in July 2012. His arrest sparked widespread protests in the kingdom leaving several people dead.
On October 15, 2014, Nimr was sentenced to death at the Specialized Criminal Court in Riyadh. In reaction to the sentence, people took to streets in the city of Qatif in Eastern Province to condemn the move.
Amnesty International has called the death sentence "appalling", saying the verdict should be quashed.
Nimr was given the death sentence on charges of disturbing the kingdom's security and making anti-government speeches.
He is the Imam of al-Awamiyya Mosque in Qatif and has spent most of his two-year detention in solitary confinement at the al-Ha'ir prison in Riyadh, according to Amnesty International.
Protesters have staged rallies worldwide to condemn the death sentence handed down to Sheikh Nimr, and have voiced solidarity with the dissident Saudi religious scholar.
There have been numerous demonstrations in Saudi Arabia's oil-rich Eastern Province since 2011, with the protestors calling for political reform and an end to widespread discrimination. Several people have been killed and many others have been injured or arrested during the demonstrations.
The Persian Gulf monarchy has come under fire from international human rights organizations, which have criticized it for failing to address the rights situation in the kingdom. Critics say the country shows zero-tolerance toward dissent.
In January, Joe Stork, the deputy director of the Middle East and North Africa division for Human Right Watch, slammed Saudi Arabia's crackdown on activists in the kingdom.
"Saudi Arabia should free imprisoned activists and take other concrete, visible steps to show the government is willing to improve its abysmal rights record," Stork said.
Stork also questioned the election of Saudi Arabia as a member of the Human Rights Council in November last year, saying that Riyadh has a record of repression and its membership is not warranted.
Saudi Arabia is an absolute monarchy that does not allow any election.

In which format should I save the email to Core Data.
I'm currently saving everything as strings, eg. email.Body, email.Subject, email.FromName etc to single attributes in an email entity. The problem is I cant go fetch that exact email on the server when saving/opening it.
What primary key can I use to "sync emails in core data with server", having the exact same emails. If i delete the email from database it should fetch primary key to delete it from the server as well.
This is obviously my first time I've been using Chilkat, really awesome API and would like to learn all there is about it!
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
First - I don't work with IMAP so I can't be sure this will work, but there is a GetImapUid method that according to some quick research I've done, might return an unchanging unique ID for a message in an IMAP mailbox. You could use this ID to handle synchronization with a specific IMAP server.
Check out section 2.3.1.x of RFC3501 INTERNET MESSAGE ACCESS PROTOCOL - VERSION 4rev1 for more information about IMAP UIDs.

There are moments when Scott Brown evokes a 12-year-old boy who woke up one day in a politician's body—as if the Tom Hanks character in Big had asked that fortune-telling machine for a Senate seat. He certainly has the 12-year-old's vernacular. Stumping for John McCain at a small Christian college in March, the junior senator from Massachusetts opined, "If you told me five months ago that I'd be standing here in front of you, I would say, 'You're full of it."' He also has the 12-year-old's gee-whiz sensibility. After learning that he'd made Time magazine's list of the world's 100 most powerful people, Brown exclaimed to The Boston Globe, "I didn't realize it was in the world. … Lady Gaga's number four, so let's be real." As a senator, he seems most excited by activities that appeal to the prepubescent mind. "As soon as his hip gets better, we're going to do some bike-riding," he said in April when asked about his relationship with his new buddy, John Kerry.
Gaming the Healthcare System in Massachusetts
I am shocked, *shocked* that someone would do something like this:
Thousands of consumers are gaming Massachusetts' 2006 health insurance law by buying insurance when they need to cover pricey medical care, such as fertility treatments and knee surgery, and then swiftly dropping coverage, a practice that insurance executives say is driving up costs for other people and small businesses.

Happy Anniversary Mr. President
I'm still somewhat surprised that this actually happened. In Massachusetts of all places.
I only wish that I was still able to vote there – so that I could finally cast a vote for a Republican worth his name in my old home state.
How big of a deal is this? Huge.
What happens next depends on the democrats — Barney Frank was a true class act tonight with this statement – which I think indicates the direction that things are going to go:
I have two reactions to the election in Massachusetts. One, I am disappointed. Two, I feel strongly that the Democratic majority in Congress must respect the process and make no effort to bypass the electoral results. If Martha Coakley had won, I believe we could have worked out a reasonable compromise between the House and Senate health care bills. But since Scott Brown has won and the Republicans now have 41 votes in the Senate, that approach is no longer appropriate. I am hopeful that some Republican Senators will be willing to discuss a revised version of health care reform because I do not think that the country would be well-served by the health care status quo. But our respect for democratic procedures must rule out any effort to pass a health care bill as if the Massachusetts election had not happened. Going forward, I hope there will be a serious effort to change the Senate rule which means that 59 votes are not enough to pass major legislation, but those are the rules by which the health care bill was considered, and it would be wrong to change them in the middle of the process.
For once, Representative Frank and I may actually agree on something.
More: Jules Crittenden.
A looming landslide for Brown
"Democrats can stop hoping at this point."
Andrew Sullivan said it… not me
Obama comes to help the wrong candidate
The President comes to town to help his senate candidate, Martha Coakley, and finds, perhaps a bit of a cold reception.
He may have come to town to fight for his agenda, but there is a growing body of evidence that his agenda – on health care, on energy, even on financial regulatory reform (which somehow the president equates with yet another tax on the banks that actually repaid their government loans) – isn't what the people of Massachusetts are looking for right now.
Tomorrow, we'll see if Scott Brown can turn his lead in the polls into reality – and become the first Republican elected to the Senate from the Bay State in a very long time.
The Boston Herald endorses a Republican?
Surely that had to be a joke.
But no, it's true.
There's a real chance that Scott Brown could win the Massachusetts Senate special election on January 19th. Let's hope that he can.
Ted Kennedy passes on
Senator Edward M. Kennedy passed away yesterday. The New York Times talks about his last few months:
But the senator's condition took a turn Tuesday night and a priest — the Rev. Patrick Tarrant of Our Lady of Victory Church in Centerville, Mass. — was called to his bedside. Mr. Kennedy spent his last hours in prayer, Father Tarrant told a Boston television station, WCVB-TV.
Mr. Kennedy had told friends recently that he was looking forward to a "reunion" with his seven departed siblings, particularly his brothers, whose lives had been cut short.
"When he gets there, he can say 'I did it, I carried the torch,' " Mr. Delahunt said. " 'I carried it all the way.' "
His politics were not mine, but no matter how you look at it – a great man and one of the last of the that generation of Kennedys has passed on.
Rest in Peace.
Massachusetts: More stupid firearms laws
Massachusetts is at it again with more stupid firearms laws – laws that will do nothing to impact crime at all.
While there are many things that I miss about living in New England – I am certainly not missing the idiotic "anti-crime" measures that the Massachusetts legislature attempts to pull off. I'm quite happy about the approach that the Minnesota legislature usually chooses to take.
I'm Shipping up to Boston
RIP, Dean Barnett
In all my years, I'll never understand why good men and women are taken from us just about when we need them the most. Dean Barnett was a Boston native and a fantastic writer – a conservative blogger at that. He passed away the other day from Cystic Fibrosis at the young age of 41.
I didn't know of Dean's blog when I was living in Boston, I had only heard him subbing for Hugh Hewitt on the radio in the last few years – after I moved to Minnesota.
James Lileks, who also appears on Hewitt's show from time to time, penned this tribute:
You know what's odd? I have no idea what he looked like. I have an idea, but it's probably wrong. Again with the saccharine notion of the afterlife with the clouds and the wings and the harp: Dean walks up behind people and shouts "CHOWDAH," and we know right away who it is. Whoever is standing there when we turn around, that's him. The plucky smart kid with the fatal disease.
I've been hearing his voice in my head all night, frankly. Hard to forget. Why would you?
And his close friend, Hugh Hewitt, also writes:
Had he had more time, he would have been one of the great influences on the GOP for as long as he lived, probably because he valued and used every minute he had.
Dean told me early in our friendship that his disease had forced him to deal with the possibility of living too short a life and that he thus threw himself into everything. This ferocious desire to live well and fully is what I will always tell people marked Dean Barnett.
We all go, eventually… and some of us cross that river far too early in life. But not everyone takes the chance to really live..

The Day We Fight Back: Activists Around the World Protest Mass Surveillance
To commemorate the Internet blackout protesting SOPA and PIPA legislation, as well as the death of Aaron Swartz, more than 5,000 websites will participate in The Day We Fight Back on Tuesday, February 11.
It's been two years since the anti-SOPA and PIPA protests, and the associated Internet blackout. With subsequent revelations about government spying, there has been sustained opposition to invasions of online privacy. To commemorate the blackout, as well as the death of Aaron Swartz, more than 5,000 websites will participate in The Day We Fight Back on Tuesday, February 11.
Instead of a blackout this year, participating websites will display a large banner at the top, enabling users to contact their representatives directly through email or with a phone call. VoIP calls from the computer will be powered by Twilio Voice.
Websites including Reddit, Tumblr, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Demand Progress, the ACLU and even internet hate machine 4chan are all teaming up to display banners to encourage users to get involved. The campaign and its organizers encourage users to share statuses, change their profile pictures and post image macro meme-style pictures.
From Denmark, Stolkhom, Costa Rica and Serbia, there are more than a dozen protest events around the world. Cities across the U.S. are holding their own events from protests to street theater. In San Francisco, protesters plan to converge on an AT&T building to project anti-surveillance messages against it, and there will be a talk by former AT&T technician (and whistleblower) Mark Klein.
While SOPA and PIPA may have been defeated, members of congress are still working on bills many activists consider detrimental to the freedom and privacy of Internet users. Key to the protest strategy this year is to fight against the FISA Improvements Act, which according to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, is a "fake fix." Activists are also advocating in support the USA Freedom Act, a piece of legislation that would bring genuine transparency to America's spying programs.

RWE and E.On halt UK nuclear plans at Wylfa and Oldbury
- Published
There has been a setback to the government's plan to attract investment in new nuclear power stations.
Two key players, RWE Npower and E.On, have announced they will not develop new nuclear power projects in the UK.
The two were planning to invest in new plants in Anglesey and Oldbury-on-Severn, near Bristol, under a joint venture called Horizon Nuclear Power.
The government says it is disappointed but there remains "considerable interest" in the project.
The firms blamed problems raising finance for power projects and costs associated with decommissioning nuclear power plants in Germany.
They formed Horizon Nuclear Power, based in Gloucester, in 2009.
It was working on plans for new nuclear power stations at Wylfa on the Isle of Anglesey and at Oldbury-on-Severn in South Gloucestershire.
They are two of eight new projects named by the government to replace old power plants which are due to close by the end of the decade, and which make up about a quarter of the UK's generating capacity.
But last May Germany decided to close down its nuclear power stations by 2022, following the disaster at Japan's Fukushima nuclear facility.
For RWE and E.On, which own most of Germany's power stations, it was an expensive decision and undermined their enthusiasm to invest in nuclear power elsewhere.
Looking for investors
"It's a big deal that they are pulling out," Malcolm Grimston, an associate fellow at the Chatham House think tank, told BBC News.
"If you look at the utilities in Europe then they are two of the biggest. There aren't that many huge players out there who could take over."
RWE and E.On want to find another company, or consortium, to take over the project.
Volker Beckers, chief executive of RWE Npower, said: "We continue to believe that nuclear power has an important role to play in the UK's future energy mix.
"We are therefore looking to ensure that work on development, including grid connection, can be taken up quickly by other potential investors."
Energy Minister Charles Hendry said: "E.On and RWE's withdrawal is clearly very disappointing, but the partners have clearly explained that this decision was based on pressures elsewhere in their businesses and not any doubts about the role of nuclear in the UK's energy future.
"The UK's new nuclear programme is far more than one consortia and there remains considerable interest.
"Plans from EDF/Centrica and Nugen are on track and Horizon's sites offer new players an excellent ready-made opportunity to enter the market," he said.
EDF said it was progressing well with plans for two new nuclear units at Hinkley Point in Somerset.
But the French company said its final investment decision hinged on it being a profitable project, and for that government reform was crucial.
"The government's framework for electricity market reform must ensure we have a project which is good for consumers, policy-makers, jobs and investors," said Vincent de Rivaz, chief executive of EDF Energy.
Analysts are now questioning whether firms can make money out of nuclear power in the UK.
"How commercially viable these plants are is very questionable," Rhys Kealley, lead analyst at Datamonitor, said.
"Even Centrica, who are partnered at the moment with EDF in a similar venture, is reluctant to make a commitment and they will be making a final decision on that some time before the end of the year."
The move by the German firms follows the decision last September by Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE) to pull out of a deal to develop a new nuclear power station.
The energy company sold its 25% stake in NuGeneration to partners GDF Suez and Iberdrola.
It said it wanted to focus on renewable energy, as do its German rivals.
RWE says it will continue to invest in low carbon technologies. It has also invested £1.6bn in gas-fired power stations in the UK.
E.On says it will concentrate on projects with quicker results than nuclear, which takes 10 years to start generating electricity.
The future of nuclear power may become clearer in May when the government announces its plan to reform the energy market.
Measures will be introduced to encourage investment and create a balanced range of electricity sources.
BBC business editor Robert Peston says sources at the energy companies describe this as "a make-or-break decision" as to whether the government is prepared to abandon its previous position that there won't be any substantial subsidies for nuclear, either from taxpayers or customers.
Labour stressed that nuclear power was vital to "to make us less reliant on volatile fossil fuel prices, increase our energy security, and keep prices down for families".
"RWE and E.On's decision... underscores the importance of the government's electricity market reform delivering a framework that will provide certainty and confidence for other potential investors," said Caroline Flint, shadow energy and climate change secretary.
Greenpeace's policy director Doug Parr said: "The government's energy strategy is crumbling.
"Not even the billions of pounds of taxpayers' money they have offered as incentives to the German and French nuclear industry are enough to make a new generation of power stations economically viable."
'A shambles'
Unions have been highly critical of government policy as well.
Gary Smith from the union GMB, which represents workers in the nuclear industry, told the BBC: "I think it is clear, the government's energy policy is in absolute tatters. It's a shambles.
"Britain is being left as an also-ran in the energy market internationally and the nuclear specifically."
According to the union, Unite, the proposed nuclear power station at Wylfa could generate 5,000 jobs on Anglesey and support jobs at the Springfields fuel plant in central Lancashire.
The Prospect union, which represents some of the 120 highly-skilled employees working at Horizon's headquarters in Gloucester, as well as staff at the existing Wylfa site, expressed concern about the broader economic consequences.
"At a time when we face the closure of several large coal-fired power stations between now and the end of 2015, the Horizon venture was to be a major contributor in achieving a new UK fleet of nuclear power stations to provide a secure low-carbon energy supply for the future," said Mike Clancy, general secretary-designate of Prospect.
