The question every vegetarian/vegan gets tired of answering:
"Where do you get your protein!?"
I shall tell you where, far healthier sources then all the meat eaters out there. It's not difficult at all to meet your daily requirements. The average vegetarian/vegan gets 70% more protein then is recommended. You body also can only process about 30 grams at a time and excess protein can lead to kidney disease.
So are you ready to find out my favorite protein sources?
Keep reading!
Quinoa and hemp seeds are what are called whole proteins. This means that they contain all nine amino acids. It is so easy to sneak these in just about everything! White quinoa really doesn't have a taste making it an easy substitute for rice or even pasta. You can put it in tacos, burritos or even burgers to cut down on the less then healthy ingredients. Hemp seeds do have some flavor, sort of nutty but I absolutely enjoy them on my peanut butter toast every morning. They contain lots of essential minerals like iron and zinc. Chia and flax seeds are also good choices and pack a punch of omega 3s and fiber. Flax has a bit more omega 3 whereas Chia wins in the fiber department. However flax does take home the prize for having having more cancer fighting lignans. These can be easily thrown into salads. YUM!
So there ya have it. Those are my protein staples. I also eat lots of broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus which are high on the list for vegetables.

Wodonga Raiders' coach Jarrod Hodgkin wins league's Morris Medal
Wodonga Raider Jarrod Hodgkin entered rare territory in the modern era on Monday night, claiming the Morris Medal as a coach.
- Pigeon's hat-trick of gongs - in three different positions
- King Ky Williamson, the league's rising star for Rovers
- Hotter climate 'is making our kids sick', warns Haines
It's extremely rare for a club mentor to claim the league's top award.
Former Albury mentor Chris Hyde won the 2017 Morris Medal, but wasn't co-coaching during that season.
Hodgkin finished joint runner-up in what was his first season back in the league after a stint in Melbourne.
Hodgkin polled 24 votes this time to edge out Albury livewire Elliott Powell (21) and Lavington ace Shaun Mannagh (18).
Mannagh was the hot tip, despite missing five games with VFL commitments.
However, it was the explosive Powell who bolted away in the first half of the season.
Powell grabbed five best on grounds in the first six games and had 18 votes by round nine.
Myrtleford's Lachie Dale, who claimed the league's Doug Strang Medal, trailed on 12 after four best on grounds.
Mannagh was next on nine from Myrtleford coach Jake Sharp, Wangaratta's Jake Richards and Wodonga Raiders' Brodie Filo, the reigning Morris medallist, on eight apiece.
Hodgkin (six) raced home in the second half of the year, polling in seven of the nine games, including four best on grounds from round 12.
With two rounds left, Hodgkin led on 21, with the pacy Powell a vote back.
Neither polled in round 17, with Powell's first vote in five games drawing the pair together.
However, Hodgkin's best on ground against North Albury sealed a thrilling win.
"I did a lot of work with the mental side of things, really putting a big focus on going into games 100 per cent with my body, my training and my mind," Hodgkin said.
I did a lot of work with the mental side of things ...focus on going into games 100 per cent.Jarrod Hodgkin
His uncle John Smith won in 1973.

Albania's National Coordinator Ms Dorina Cinari on chance coffees and affecting change in her country.
This profile of the month was written by Richard Dion.
"It was all by chance!" Dorina Cinari smiles convincingly when asked about how she joined the Albanian EITI process.
"I met the Member of Parliament Mr Gjiknuri when he was in opposition and I started moaning about the country's direction. 'Does our country have a plan? Can someone please share it with us?' "
A chance coffee
Fast-forward a few months, past an election and change in government: Dorina walks out a door with a cup of coffee and bumps into Mr Gjiknuri, now Minister Gjiknuri.
"Dorina, I am so happy to see you. I've thought a lot about your rant some months ago and it moved me. Do you want to try to affect change in our government? Would you be interested in running the EITI in Albania?"
Dorina continues, "I wasn't sure what to make of it and frankly, those four letters, EITI, meant nothing to me. However, that night I trolled through the EITI webpages in Albania and of the International Secretariat and I was hooked. I wanted to be part of it."
One year, two reports, three major policy undertakings
Closing out her first year the National Coordinator of Albania EITI, Dorina has seen much change. Presiding over the National Secretariat which has published two reports in the last few months, the Government and the National Secretariat have taken concrete steps towards building government capacity in contracts, drafting a revenue management plan, addressing informality in the mining sector and inserting clauses regarding transparency in upcoming legislation.
"Now there is a plan. The mind frame of complete opacity towards transparency is slowly changing. Measuring that is tough, but I receive fewer phone calls for handling things informally than I did previously."
Tackling a mountain of problems
With a sense of frustration, Dorina churns out facts with a look of cheerful sadness. "Can you believe that in 1990, our extractive revenues were 40% of our GDP. That number is now not even 2%. That figure must rise!". The decline in revenues from the sector could be due to the high level of informality in the sector, and the decline of the mineral processing industry. Currently, 99% of Albania's minerals are exported without having been processed, which would add value to the resource and increase the price.
Dorina says, "Progress has been made, but a mountain of problems remains to be tackled. Government agencies are crucial to get the information for the EITI Reports together. It has not transpired yet to many that information should be shared and freely accessible. Dismantling the socialist experiment will take more than a generation. The private sector can be more cooperative than state entities. For that matter, civil society needs to get more engaged."
Shaping Albania in more than one way
"I enjoy being an informal ambassador for my country, representing us here and abroad. In a way, our country's fate is wrapped up in the extractives and so I am not only chasing the ins and outs of Independent Administrators, MSG politics and communications plans, but also the wider picture, dare I say, the fun things, such as giving presentations, writing briefings for ministerial visits to Brussels, advocating Albania as a place to do business with its proximity to European markets. We've managed to attract several major oil and gas companies. I am an engineer by training and am used to dealing with equations and technical aspects. So these very important interpersonal and strategic aspects of my job are still new, but I am learning."
Does Dorina unwind? Only sometimes. "I read quite a bit, at times through the night. Singing and dancing are also important aspects of my life". She not only likes shaping Albania's extractives sector, but also her immediate surroundings." Design inspires me and so I have designed clothes and even interiors for some friends of mine – they haven't complained, at least not yet," she says, with a smile.

In May, the Cannabis Certification Council (CCC) launched the "What's in My Weed?" (WIMW) campaign, which pushes people to draw parallels between how they consume food and how they consume cannabis. "Your strawberries are organic," it says, "what about your weed?"
To date, cannabis consumers don't enjoy the ubiquitous availability of organic products in dispensaries like they do when they go to the grocery store or even the liquor store. Part of the problem is the lack of a clearly identifiable label that both consumers and the industry can trust. Another part is that some state regulatory environments fail to adequately protect consumers from noxious pesticides and don't recognize the value that a state-supported organic program can provide.
Even in the face of these daunting challenges, the biggest missing element in this equation is simple: consumer demand. Studying the evolution of the Organic and Fair Trade movements in the food and beverage industries reveals that consumer education created consumer demand, which in turn has led to explosive year-over-year growth for more than a decade.
This demand has led to an incredible premium for organic produce, as noted by the Giannini Foundation of Agricultural Economics. It found that "between 2007-2012, the average price for a pound of conventional strawberries was $2.22, and the average price for a pound of organic strawberries was $3.22. This means that the average premium was $1 per pound, or 45 percent over the retail price of conventional strawberries.
Berries are hardly an outlier. According to Nielsen research, organic eggs enjoy an average of 122-percent premium pricing over non-organic eggs. An array of other products see benefits ranging from 20 percent to 90 percent.
The market case for Fair Trade production is not quite as strong, though research consistently shows consumers will pay a premium for Fair Trade Certified goods, such as coffee and chocolate.
The WIMW campaign is designed to speak to consumers who are paying a nearly 50-percent premium for organic goods. Its website features a clearinghouse of information on certifications and process validations that are currently offered in the cannabis industry. Perhaps most importantly, the website also features tools that allow consumers to contact local growers and product manufacturers and voice their demand for clean cannabis.
We already are seeing executives from the beverage, pharmaceutical, food and biotech industries join the Green Rush at the helm of plant-touching companies. What we haven't seen is the natural development of nonprofit organizations serving to set and enforce standards like we have in those other industries. The WIMW campaign is a central location created for consumers to find and demand clean cannabis. These executives coming in from other industries, as well as other cannabis business executives, will be under increasing pressure to support traditional structures that allow for independent, third-party certification of products, so consumers can be assured they are receiving what they intend to buy.
What Standards Will Mean for Cannabis
With Canada still to come online and the United States still a (growing) series of cannabis-regulation islands, there are still no uniform standards for cultivation, sourcing, worker safety and treatment, and much more. The CCC has been a voice for Organic and Fair Trade production, working to educate the industry about the benefits of each practice and the consumer about the need to demand it. The sooner universally recognized standards for clean-cannabis cultivation are in place, the sooner producers will begin to realize the market benefits that come with those standards.
One of the drawbacks of organic cannabis cultivation is the startup costs. But those upfront expenses incurred by switching to organic production can be mitigated by implementing the process in stages (one room or variety at a time) and can be offset with premium pricing to help fuel category growth. Scale producers, like coffee manufacturers or produce growers, typically offer both conventional and organic products, allowing for dual market share. There is no reason to believe cannabis will be any different. Even with the various state market structures, every retail environment eventually will be expected to have Organic and Fair Trade products available. Standards will help drive stability in clean cannabis production, as well as better product and brand differentiation in the industry, which will also serve to mature and mainstream the cannabis market.
Why Organic and Fair Trade?
Both Organic and Fair Trade standards have come to rise as the result of deep-rooted movements.
These standards will be among the first to filter into cannabis and have a direct impact on the market value of products certified against them. Certainly many groups seeking to drive adoption of various best practices exist. However, an element that has been critical to both the Organic and Fair Trade movements has been missing from prior efforts: consumer education.
The good news is that large swaths of consumers already insist on organic production, are determined to consume ethically and—critical to businesses—are largely willing to pay a premium for the production of such products.
The CCC is committed to developing and implementing those standards and to educating the industry and the public about the need for them. It is working with partners inside and outside the industry to create two certification labels—"Organically Grown" and "Ethically Produced"—that consumers can easily understand and that will create more immediate value behind the products that feature these labels.
If cannabis is truly to be treated as a medicine, as safe for recreational use and as generally positive for society—robust, universally recognized standards must come in to place. Organic and Fair Trade are a natural fit and should become standards early in the industry's rapid development because of the clear and defined value they create in other markets.

LONDON (Reuters) - Direct Line DLGD.L has taken a one-off hit to earnings after the UK government last week changed the way personal injury claims are calculated and the change should have little material impact on its 2017 profits, the insurer's chief financial officer said.
Direct Line, whose brands include Churchill, Green Flag and Privilege, reported a 22 percent drop in 2016 operating profit after Britain's justice ministry cut the discount rate to minus 0.75 percent from 2.5 percent in a shock move.
The discount rate cut pushes up the cost of insurers' upfront lump sum payments to meet compensation claims.
"We outlined a one-off impact of moving to the new rate," Direct Line CFO John Reizenstein said on a call with media.
"This doesn't impact our underlying position going forward."
Direct Line said operating profit from continuing operations was 403.5 million pounds for the year ended Dec. 31, down from 520.7 million a year earlier.
Direct Line's operating profit would have been 578.6 million pounds without the discount rate change, the insurer said in a trading statement, helped by strong new business growth in motor and home insurance.
RBC analysts said the results were better than expected when taking account of the discount rate change, reiterating their 'outperform' rating on the stock and raising their target price to 410 pence from 400 pence.
Gross written premiums for ongoing operations rose 3.9 percent to 3.27 billion pounds in the period, Direct Line said. The company achieved a full-year combined operating ratio from continuing operations of 97.7 percent, also hit by the discount rate change.
A level below 100 percent indicates an underwriting profit. Direct Line has a 93-95 percent target range for the rate and said it maintained that target for 2017.
Direct Line's shares were trading at 346.8 pence at 0830 GMT, down 0.46 percent on the day versus a 0.12 percent rise in the FTSE 100 index .FTSE.The insurer said it would pay a final dividend of 9.7 pence per share, for a total dividend, including an interim special dividend, of 24.6 pence per share, down 50 percent from a year earlier.
The insurer did not pay a full-year special dividend.
Reizenstein said that without the impact of the discount rate change, "you could probably assume that there would have been a special dividend".

Now-a-days, a two-week holiday in the summer is just not enough! Short breaks help us to de-stress and relax, often. Just four and a half flying hours from the UK and Tenerife is waiting… subtropical, and with over 300 days of sunshine a year – you will shed your British layers and enjoy the warmth on a sun-bed by the pool in no time at all!
Tenerife's scenery is magnificent – dominated by Mount Teide, there are some great beaches, sea-cliff walks and traditional Spanish towns to explore.
My visit was all about being spoiled…… a special treat, and a special time. And this is what I'd recommend.
The Abama Resort in Guia de Isora is on the West side of the island – 5 star deluxe luxury! Built in the style of a citadel, at night, lit with torches – it has an exotic Moorish elegance. The rooms in the main Citadel, are beautiful – inspired in unique ethnic features and designs. It's easy to lose yourself in the gardens, where trees and waterfalls abound, hide away in the Spa, or take off to the fairways and greens on the 18-hole golf course.
Tagor Villas are a wonderful adults only retreat. I spent the day relaxing at its private pool, where an attendant provided complimentary drinks and hors d'oeuvres all day! In the evening the El Mirador restaurant nearby was a treat – with local seafood and a table on the terrace overlooking the island of La Gomera.
I loved the beach here – a sheltered cove of ivory sand and the only way down is the funicular railway!
The Gran Hotel Bahia Del Duque Resort and Spa is another 5 star luxury hotel. It's quite different, built like a Canarian village. It's like entering a different world! Architecture, sculptures and sumptuous elegance are everywhere.
There is an amazing choice of restaurants from Italian, Oriental and Canary Island cuisine, and lots of bars and cafes to enjoy a drink and light snack. I marvelled at the Spa, activities, kids clubs, sports classes, excursions on a luxury yacht, and even star gazing in the astronomic observatory! A short break is just not long enough!
I'll just have to come again!

Blueberry Portfolio Month 1: Our First ProfitJune 13th, 2012 by Potato
This is a monthly update from the Blueberry Portfolio. The events I talked about below happened approx 8 months ago.
Well, it's been about a month since I started managing the Blueberry Investment Portfolio. In that time, the TSX has swung way down (12%), then most of the way back up, ending down just 2.5%.
The broker is reporting the portfolio as down just 0.3%, which I call a win, but given that the money was safely ensconced in a savings account before that, any loss can perhaps be viewed with derision.
This of course was not the case even just a few days ago. In the initial discussions of where to put the money, a planned core holding was going to be Berkshire Hathaway, the conglomerate controlled by Warren Buffett. Unfortunately I didn't figure out how to buy US-listed securities in time, and some good news came out that drove the stock up over 10%. Though it may still be a good investment at 10% more, I didn't feel like chasing it, and besides, buying in the US does add some complications.
Another missed opportunity was Armtec: once a darling stock in that magical "infrastructure" business that was supposed to get a boost from government stimulus spending, Armtec actually stumbled of late, and after suspending dividends started to trade like it was going out of business completely. I had just started to do my due diligence on it one Friday, planning to finish on the weekend. I didn't get around to it that weekend, but figured I'd have plenty of time to finish over the next week. Unfortunately sometimes the market doesn't give you the benefit of time, and by the middle of the week Armtec had jumped 120%. There's no way to know if I would have felt comfortable buying it after doing my reading, but it still feels like a miss.
So we missed a few good opportunities.
We also had some rough luck with the stocks we did buy, finding Superior Plus melting away roughly 20% after buying it at what had already looked like bargain-basement prices. Even what I thought were solid names like Canexus and Futuremed were nearly as bad this month. The worst though was Daylight Energy, which dropped 32% over the course of the month.
However, our biggest loser turned into our biggest winner this week as a takeover offer for Daylight came through. Though we could have collected a few more percentage points by waiting until the closing date, I thought it might be prudent to sell into the market, and did just that last week, generating our first realized profit (and also bringing the portfolio almost back up to even).
And of course Daylight is an exemplary case to use in demonstrating that even when you get it all right in the market and end up making money, you certainly don't get there by experiencing the market go straight up. We had to ride through some pretty gut-wrenching declines before we made it to today.
Speaking of take-overs, another large position in the portfolio is Capital Power Income Fund, which has received a take-over offer from Atlantic Power Corp. The deal is a little strange in that you have the option of either getting cash for your shares, or shares in the purchasing company, Atlantic Power. What's really strange though is that about half the people will have to choose shares, or they'll run out of cash. So odds are good that since the Capital Power shares were trading at a big discount to the take-over price, everyone will want cash. Thus, everyone is likely to end up with a mix of about half shares and half cash (though the default option is shares, so anyone who doesn't bother to read their mail will get stuck with shares).
When we bought, Capital Power was trading as though you were just going to get shares, and at a discount to cash — but since we should get at least half as cash, we should do better than that. It works out to about a 2% return, which in just about 4 months is pretty decent (~6% annualized, with very little risk, and as much as 12% annualized if we get all cash). And that isn't including the healthy dividend, either. Today, the Atlantic Power shares have traded lower, so even though Capital Power is still in the same place, it's as though the discount has gone away (if we were proper arbitraguers, we would have shorted ATP).

Numbering your rows in Excel is helpful when you need to reference a particular cell either to another person, or as part of a formula. So when the labels that typically identify your rows aren't present, it can make your work a little more difficult.
Or perhaps you need to include an additional column in your spreadsheet where you are numbering a cell in each row of a column. But instead of typing all of those numbers in yourself, you might be looking for a more efficient way to achieve the desired result. Our guide below will show you how to do each of these things so that you can add row numbering to your Excel spreadsheet in whatever way you need.
How to Add Row Labels in Excel 2013
The steps in this section assume that you currently don't see the row labels to the left of your spreadsheet. Note that this will also assume that you do not see any column letters either. These items are called Headings, and both the row headings and the column headings are controlled with the same setting.
Step 1: Open your spreadsheet in Excel 2013.
Step 2: Click the View tab at the top of the window.
Step 3: Check the box to the left of Headings in the Show section of the ribbon. Your row labels should now be visible.
If you want to be able to quickly fill a row of numbers with consecutive numbers, then continue to the section below.
How to Fill Rows With Consecutive Numbers in Excel 2013
This section does not deal with the row labels that we added in the section below. Rather this is going to add values to your cells in the form of a numerical sequence that increases by one . Following the steps in this section will allow you to do this quickly, and error-free, which is likely a relief if you had previously done this by manually typing in all these values.
Step 1: Open your spreadsheet in Excel 2013.
Step 2: Click in the top-most cell where you want to start the row numbering, then type the first number that you want to use for the numbering.
Step 3: Hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard, click and hold on the bottom-right corner of the cell, then drag down until you have selected the number of cells to which you want to add the consecutive numbers. Release the mouse button to fill those cells. Note that the number that goes into the bottom-most cell is shown as a small pop-up number slightly below your mouse cursor.
Do you have a large spreadsheet that is difficult to put into a summarized format without a lot of additional work? Find out more about pivot tables and see if that is a tool that can be useful for your Excel activity.

ISLAMABAD Sept 19 (TNS): Estranged Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNA Ayesha Gulalai on Tuesday submitted her reply to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) in response to a reference seeking her disqualification from the membership of the National Assembly.
Gulalai appeared before the bench, headed by Chief Election Commissioner retired Justice Sardar Muhammad Raza, along with her counsel and filed a written reply to the disqualification reference.
The hearing was adjourned till Sept 26 when the bench would hear arguments of the both parties on the reference.
Speaking to media after her appearance, Gulalai slammed PTI chief Imran Khan, saying his attitude towards party women was inappropriate and questionable. When she raised her voice in this regard, he got registered fake cases against her, she added.
She questioned how he will root out corruption when he himself was surrounded by corrupt people.
She alleged the money earned through corruption and land-grabbing was used in the campaign for NA-120. She said she felt deeply sorry for Dr Yasmeen Rashid who lost NA-120 by-election to PML-N's Begum Kulsoom Nawaz.
Gulalai reiterated that she had not violated discipline of the party.
Speaker of the National Assembly Ayaz Sadiq had sent the reference to the ECP to decide it within 30 days in accordance with the law.
PTI chief Imran Khan had requested the speaker to disqualify her for violating the party discipline by not participating in voting for PTI's nominated candidate Sheikh Rasheed in the election for the prime minister's office.
Gulalai shot to prominence after she announced to leave the party in spectacular fashion and accused the PTI chief of misogyny and sending her inappropriate text messages. She also alleged that women were not respected in the PTI and she had quit over differences with the party leadership. All charges have been dismissed by the party.
Gulalai was sent a show cause notice after the press conference to explain her actions but she failed to respond. The party sent a final notice to Gulalai, a copy of which was also sent to the ECP and Speaker National Assembly.

Yellow House Ranch
The Yellow House Ranch, covering 312,175 acres in Lamb, Hockley, Bailey, and Cochran counties, was established in July 1901, when George Washington Littlefield purchased the southern, or Yellow Houses, division of the XIT Ranch for two dollars an acre. In earlier times the Spanish called a nearby yellowish limestone bluff pitted with caves Las Casas Amarillas, the Yellow Houses. From a distance, and especially when there was a mirage, the bluff appeared to be a city. Littlefield also bought 5,000 XIT cows with calves for $40 apiece, along with 200 registered Hereford bulls, all of which were moved to the Yellow House that summer. The ranch headquarters, built around 1905 out of native stone and imported lumber, was located at the base of the Yellow Houses bluff in Hockley County near its northern boundary because of the availability of spring water there. For the same reason, the Yellow Houses site had been a landmark and favorite campsite on the old military trail across the plains from the headwaters of the Brazos River to Fort Sumner on the Pecos River; in the 1870s a small adobe hut had been erected on the site by Sam Gohlson, who later established his ranch south of Tucumcari, New Mexico. To tap this source of water further, eighty-one windmills were constructed on the ranch. One, which measured 128 feet from the base to the top of the fan, was reputed to have been the tallest windmill in the world until it blew down in 1926 and was replaced by a lower tower. The manager of the ranch was Littlefield's nephew and partner, James Phelps White, who owned one-quarter interest in the spread. Both White and Littlefield were known as astute cattlemen, and they rarely suffered losses of cattle from severe weather or from prairie fires, such as the fire in 1906, which burned off some 220,000 acres on the Yellow House Ranch. At the most they ran 27,000 head of cattle, branded LFD, the brand Littlefield had introduced in 1878 at his ranch on the Pecos north of Roswell, New Mexico. Although Hereford cattle were the principal stock, the ranch also carried some Black Angus for a time, and in the 1920s White stocked the ranch with a few buffalo. Jim Roberts served as foreman, a position which his son Rue Roberts later filled. George Smith served as bookkeeper, and Henry Marchbanks was the last cowboy to work for the Yellow House prior to its breakup in the 1920s.
Though little oil was found beneath the ranch itself, one of the first wells in this oil region was drilled in 1912 at South Camp, about six miles northwest of Levelland. In June 1912 Littlefield contracted with the Santa Fe Railroad to build a segment of its main line from Lubbock to Texico, New Mexico, across his land. In August he organized the Littlefield Lands Company to sell the northeastern corner of 79,040 acres for farms and to establish the town of Littlefield in Lamb County. By 1920 only 47,601 acres had been sold. In April 1923, after Littlefield's death, the remainder of the ranch was sold by White and the Littlefield estate to the Yellow House Land Company and was subdivided for sale as farms. The towns of Pep and Whitharral in Hockley County were established by the company on this acreage. At that time the LFD brand was dropped, but later some 23,000 acres surrounding the old ranch headquarters was returned to cattle grazing. Tragically, Littlefield's old ranch house was lost in a fire on September 9, 1930. After J. P. White's death in 1934 his son, George Littlefield White, owned and operated the Yellow House and built a modern brick home at the headquarters near the site of the Yellow Lakes. Here he bred high-grade Herefords and fed out several hundred sheep annually. In 1966 White became one of the first West Texas ranchers to adopt the "cold branding" method utilizing dry ice and alcohol. Hospitable in many ways, White and his wife hosted camps and class picnics for Boy Scouts on the Yellow House grounds and in 1966 allowed Marines to use the ranch for training purposes for the war in Vietnam. In 1970 White sold the 20,000-acre remnant of the Yellow House Ranch to the Matador Land and Cattle Company. At that time the company's foreman, Bob Tapp, occupied the headquarters.

Sri Lankan government has refused to issue censor certificate and also banned the movie from screening in Sri Lanka. The director of this film Eezhan Elango spoke about the censorship denial and ban of the of the movie in Sri Lanka.
"We haven't filmed any such incident during the final stages of war involving murders or tortures in the country. The complete feature film speaks only about the sorrows and lifestyle of the war victims and refugees inside and outside the country post the civil war. Also, we have tried to speak out the aftermath mindset of diaspora and people who have been put up in camps."
The Censor Board officials in Sri Lanka said the story of the movie and other characters involved in the story, a song and dialogues in many part of the movie are very emotional and they are against the Sri Lankan army and Sri Lanka. Allowing to screen this film may erupt law and order issue in the country. Hence it has been banned from screening in Sri Lanka, officials said.
Upon ban and censorship refusal, the director Eazhan Elango has expressed his shock and disappointment. He said that it is a great disappointment for our crew members and fans who are awaited to watch the movie, "Satchigal Sorgathil".
Saatchigal Sorgathil(Witness in Heaven), is a Tamil film named after the death of Master Balachandiran, who was LTTE supremo Prabhakaran's youngest 13-years-old son killed during final stages of Civil war in Sri Lanka and Journalist Isaipriya, who was brutally killed in the last phase. The team has applied for censorship in Colombo to screen the film in Sri Lanka. After the view, Sri Lankan government has banned the movie from screening there with a reason that characters, songs, dialogues of the movie are against the Sri Lankan army and Sri Lanka. Director Eezhan Elango is disappointed upon ban and censorship refusal.

Learn About Our New Online/Third Party Pharmacy Policy
At Calling All Creatures, we strive to provide your pet with the best medical care and products for their needs. Due to the increase use and concerns with online pharmacies and other third party pharmacies, we have changed our policy to provide the best care for your pet.
The following is a list of top concerns that have lead us to update our policy:
• Products are not always sold in original packaging (therefore, they do not come with a manufacturer's guarantee)
• Online pharmacies routinely transfer prescriptions in and out to other pharmacies such as 1-800-PetMeds, PetCareRX, VetRXDirect, which puts into question your data confidentiality as well as the safety of the products
• The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy reported that 96% of the 11,000 online drug outlets it has reviewed are in conflict with laws and practice standards governing the dispensation of pet medicines
• There are many reports of veterinarians finding prescription errors from online pharmacies regarding dosages, swaps, etc.
• Even local pharmacies (Walgreens, CVS, Costco, and Sam's Club) who advertise selling preventatives or "veterinary-only" drugs are not usually obtaining them directly from the manufacturer, so please inquire with the pharmacy as to where the prescription was purchased
Now Offering Digital X-Ray!
Calling All Creatures Veterinary Hospital now offers both dental and full body digital x-rays to better diagnose and treat sick or injured pets.
Digital radiography does not use conventional film. This allows for the highest quality images, while using the lowest possible exposure of x-rays to your pet.
This method is not only safer, but also more advanced as these digital images can be computer-enhanced to increase detail. We will also be able to store, print and email these digital files to share.
We are excited for this new addition and how it will improve our services for our clients!
If your pet is experiencing illness or injuries, we are here to help. Call us at (732) 341-2292

October 8, 2004
Thank you for finally responding our letter dated on September 24th, regarding the meetings which Sakhalin Energy Investment Company (SEIC) is planning to hold in Tokyo and Hokkaido on October 12th and 13th on Sakhalin II oil and gas development project (Sakhalin-II).
First of all, we welcome that the EIA addendum will be translated into Japanese. On this point, we would like to urge you to consult with Japanese stakeholders which part of the addendum should be translated into Japanese. In addition, other important documents including Environmental Action Plan also should be translated into Japanese.
We carefully read the response letter. We regret that SEIC doesn't accept the fundamentally important matters which we raised regarding the process, to have real engagement and meaningful dialogue at the meetings in Japan. The transparent and accountable process is an essential key to achieve best practice, to undertake appropriate environmental and social considerations, and to prevent or minimize the impacts by the development project.
From the response, these fundamental points regarding the meetings are completely failed. For example, SEIC stated that the minutes of previous meetings are on the website to ensure the transparency. However the minutes are too simplified as only 2 pages long even for a whole day meeting. They are hardly to understand how the discussion went and what were the outcomes and/or pending issues of the meetings. Besides, SEIC have had meetings twice, each in Sapporo and Tokyo. The minutes of two of these meetings are not on the website.
SEIC said in the letter, "What we can say is that any constructive proposals will be studied by the Company (SEIC) and may be implemented if it is technically and economically feasible." According to the Guideline for Confirmation of Environmental and Social Consideration of Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), "Environmental impact which may be caused by a project must be assessed and examined.." "Such examination must include analysis of environmental costs and benefits in as quantitative terms as possible and be conducted in close harmony with economic, financial, institutional, social and technical analysis of the project." The current attitude of SEIC is clearly against the requirement of the guidelines. The environmental aspects should be ranked equal with the economical and technical aspects.
As the results of seriously consideration, we came to a conclusion that we will not participate the meetings again this time, although it was not an easy decision to make since we have serious demands to SEIC.

text: This patchset adds support for the LCD panel of PinePhone.I've tested this on PinePhone 1.0 and 1.2.Please take a look.thank you and regards, Ondrej JirmanChanges in v6:- Fixed spacing in yaml- Fixed wrong vccio->iovcc supply name in the bindings doc- I noticed that the original driver uses a delay of 20ms in the init function to achieve a combined total of 120ms required from post-reset to display_on. I've added a similar delay to xbd599_init, so that xbd599 panel also has the right timing. (patch 9)- v5->v6 diff: https://megous.com/dl/tmp/v5-v6.patch- Added review/ack tags- Learned to run dt_binding_check by myself ;)Changes in v5:- rewritten on top of rocktech-jh057n00900 driver- rocktech-jh057n00900 renamed to st7703 (controller name)- converted rocktech-jh057n00900 bindings to yaml and extended for xbd599Changes in v4:- use ->type from the mode instead of hardcoding (Samuel)- move init_sequence to ->prepare (Samuel)- move anti-flicker delay to ->enable, explain it (Samuel)- add enter_sleep after display_off (Samuel)- drop ->disable (move code to ->unprepare)- add ID bytes dumping (Linus) (I can't test it since allwinner DSI driver has a broken dcs_read function, and I didn't manage to fix it.)- document magic bytes (Linus)- assert reset during powerup- cleanup powerup timings according to the datasheetChanges in v3:- Panel driver renamed to the name of the LCD controller- Re-organize the driver slightly to more easily support more panels based on the same controller.- Add patch to enable the touchscreen to complete the LCD support on PinePhone.- Dropped the "DSI fix" patch (the driver seems to work for me without it)- Improved brightness levels handling: - PinePhone 1.0 uses default levels generated by the driver - On PinePhone 1.1 duty cycles < 20% lead to black screen, so default levels can't be used. Martijn Braam came up with a list of duty cycle values that lead to perception of linear brigtness level <-> light intensity on PinePhone 1.1- There was some feedback on v2 about this being similar to st7701. It's only similar in name. Most of the "user commands" are different, so I opted to keep this in a new driver instead of creating st770x. Anyone who likes to check the differences, here are datasheets: - https://megous.com/dl/tmp/ST7703_DS_v01_20160128.pdf - https://megous.com/dl/tmp/ST7701.pdfChanges in v2:- DT Example fix.- DT Format fix.- Raised copyright info to 2020.- Sort panel operation functions.- Sort inclusion.-- For phone owners: --There's an open question on how to set the backlight brightness valueson post 1.0 revision phone, since lower duty cycles (< 10-20%) leadto backlight being black. It would be nice if more people can testthe various backlight levels on 1.1 and 1.2 revision with this changein dts: brightness-levels = <0 1000>; num-interpolated-steps = <1000>;and report at what brightness level the backlight turns on. So far itseems this has a wide range.

There's a tv show called Dancing With The Stars and the viewing public calls, emails or texts in votes for the contestant, with one person and their dancer partner being foxtrotted out the door each week, culminating with a big people's choice sort of finale.
Apparently some people question the numbers gathering methods for these votes, and someone at msn.com is outraged that the vote was hacked, netting nascent hoofer Bristol Palin staying power whilst better dancers have been shown the exit sign, possibly because some folks are voting (shock! horror!) more than once for their favorite dancer(an occurrence which apparently only outrages the author if the beneficiary of said extra votes is affiliated with a conservative politician). The author interviews a computer expert who concedes that 'this isn't supposed to be a "one person, one vote" election', but he goes on to identify those votes as fraudulent despite what the expert said about the intentions of this method of data collection. The harangue goes on to say the ramifications here are that with some voter bias and cheating, just as the inept Bristol could take the win with the DWTS competition, so too could we end up with her embarrassing tea-party style mom taking the White House in 2012.
I realize Bristol took the job on that show of her own volition and criticism will come along with the adulation. As long as her mother is a lightning rod, Bristol probably thought she might as well join in and have a laugh and kick her heels up, since she's in for uninvited media exposure every single day anyway. But if she is having a good time and actually enjoying herself, why wouldn't people be drawn to support that? It's supposed to be entertainment, for goodness' sake.
Himself said maybe people are voting for her not based on technical skill but just on moxie. He cites the affection inspired by the Jamaican bobsled team and Eddie the Eagle at the Calgary Olympics in 1988 and says what's wrong with it if people are voting with their hearts rather than with the withering criticism of a ballroom dance judge?
In the case of Eddie, the ski-jumping establishment was outraged that an interloper could waltz in with little qualification, garner so much attention and [in their eyes] make a mockery of their sport. Eddie didn't win at the Olympics in any category-- that went to folks technically more proficient - but Eddie did win the hearts of the world. I suppose when people think things are set up for a predetermined outcome, they get butt-hurt when things don't completely run on rails.
It would be really scary if ignorant people went out and voted without having a lick of sense or the first inkling of what is going on at the highest(er, uh, lowest) levels of our government and how that directly impacts their lives. When that happens, you end up with something like 2008.
I hope Bristol wins. I couldn't give a toss about the show-- I don't even own a TV, but here's to a young woman going out and daring to try despite the naysaying establishment. Here's to Bristol for smiling and not turning into some bitter, pinched emaciated fashion victim, no matter what the critics say. Same goes for her mom.

This lunation true anomaly is ∠252°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠289°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep decreasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
2 days after point of perigee on 1 January 2034 at 00:06 in ♉ Taurus. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 9 days, until it get to the point of next apogee on 13 January 2034 at 00:22 in ♏ Scorpio.
Moon is 372 718 km (231 596 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves farther next 9 days until apogee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 404 300 km (251 220 mi).
5 days after its descending node on 29 December 2033 at 00:23 in ♈ Aries, the Moon is following the southern part of its orbit for the next 7 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from South to North in ascending node on 11 January 2034 at 04:21 in ♎ Libra.
19 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♎ Libra, the Moon is moving from the second to the final part of it.
At 15:55 on this date the Moon is meeting its North standstill point, when it will reach northern declination of ∠18.468°. Next 14 days the lunar orbit will move in opposite southward direction to face South declination of ∠-18.413° in its southern standstill point on 17 January 2034 at 23:58 in ♐ Sagittarius.
After 1 day on 4 January 2034 at 19:47 in ♋ Cancer, the Moon will be in Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and this alignment forms next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy.

This Chitragupta clearly writes every work of every creature in his book without resting at all times. Everyone has different pictures. The number of creatures, the same is Chitragupta, so there is no doubt that how much writing work can be accomplished. If the systematic information of the activities of the gross body remains inscribed in the astral consciousness, then it is not surprising. 'The mythological picture is one and there are many here' This doubt is not even deep. There is such a distinction between light and light. Indra, Varuna, Agni, Shiva, Yama, etc. Devta Bodhak subtleity is considered as comprehensive. Like the wind of the garden, the air of dirty nallah, etc., apart from the distinction of many names, the world wide air element is essentially the same; in the same way, the Chitragupta deity, which acts differently in different bodies, is also one element.
How does he write about the deeds of each person on how much, how much, how much? It will be told in the next rows and on the basis of the works lines written by Chitragupta, the details of heaven and hell and their arrangement for light will be highlighted.
In the previous rows, the readers have read that the inner image of our secret picture continuously continues to work as Chitragupta Deity. Whatever good or bad we do, we take down the microscopic images and keep depositing it inside us. On the curtain of the cinema, a long-standing picture of man appears, but his film is only one inch wide. Similarly, the phenomenon of sin-worship is forgotten, but its subtle picture is drawn within a thin line, and that line sits fiercely on an atom of the secret mind. The little handwriting writers write a little over the papers on the back of a slight vomiting-straight lines. Karmarekha can be considered such a divine shorthand.
It may have been so long ago that the readers have had so much information that there are two parts of the mind- one excitement, second interference. The outer mind argues, thinks, crushes, decides and changes its intentions, but the difference is like the naïve, but the determinant child, he does not bite, but the Shraddha And works on the basis of faith. The outer mind can think that the lines of sin karma should not be inscribed above it and I should mention it in the form of charitable deeds. Thereby, do not have to suffer sinful fruits and get plenty of good fruits, but the inner mind is not like that. It judges like a just judge, no greed, greed, fear, selfishness do not affect him. It is said that there is a divine power inside man, the second satanic. You can call the secret mind in the power of divine power and logic, mind, deceit, selfishness, and the outer mind that is engaged in greed. The outer mind can deceive, but the inner mind is the true spirit of the soul, neither does he behave in a way that is deceptive, neither deceit or deceit. Being fair is his nature. That is why God has entrusted so much important work to him. The world calls it Chitragupta Deva. If he too had been biased, how could he get the degree of such a high judge? Our secret mind is always with every watch like an intelligence detective, and those who are doing bad things, their amazement keeps on recording their intelligence in the diary.

U.S. citizens encounter true love from other countries in many ways. Perhaps you were traveling on business or vacation, the other person visited this country, or you met online. In any case, despite the obvious complications, you have decided to get married.
How current status affects pathway to marriage-based visas
Non-citizens who are married or engaged to be married to citizens or permanent residents can apply to become a U.S. lawful permanent resident with a marriage-based visa or green card. The pathway that is required depends on the current status of the immigrant spouse.

Public News Service reported that a federal judge ordered Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials to stop requesting that certain inmates who are up for release be detained longer to determine their immigration status.
This ruling adds more intensity to the debate in Texas and other states over so-called 'sanctuary cities', in which local officials have no connection with ICE, therefore creating a safe space for undocumented immigrants. The order bars ICE from requesting that local jails detain possible deportable individuals for 48 hours, when they would otherwise be able to leave, in order to check their immigration status. Immigration advocates have long said that ICE detainers are illegal and used to detain people stopped for minor offenses.
Bob Libel, executive director of Grassroots Leadership, said "In Dallas County, the sheriff said she wouldn't be honoring some detainers, and in Houston, there's been a very active campaign to try to convince elected officials there to end detainers." He then said ""We do believe that there seems to be growing momentum against these things."
ICE officials were reached for a comment but declined to respond.

Dear Travellers!
Our business and website are for all people who love travelling on wheels and searching for the best services and products to suit their needs. The very best way to explore this beautiful country was and will be on 4 wheels.
Travellers are individuals…
A retired couple enjoying the freedom of travelling over months, the young European Backpackers looking forward to being as independent as possible on their trip around Australia, or the young family who owns a Camper to have great holidays
What we do!
Our target is to make your journey even better and as practical, luxurious and smart as you like.
Back in 2011, we bought our first van which we converted into a campervan during our first few weeks in Australia. In 2.5 years' time, we travelled all around Australia with this van and later also with a 4×4.
We often look back to those years as being the best times ever and love to pass on this spirit to other travellers.
From that time onwards, with all that our experiences taught us, we learnt and worked hard to establish our own business: Individual conversions for all kind of vehicles.
We can also customize your van if you bring it to us.
We can upgrade vehicles with a solar panel or conventional dual battery system, install fridge connections, 240v power, side awnings for shade and more.
Contact us for more details.
Nele & Wannes from Belgium
"The campervan man, he who makes it happen!"》 From dream to reality!》Delivers on his promises!》Quick worker with beautiful and solid result!》A real tradesman in electronics and woodwork!》Joins in the thinking process!Rocking up with an empty van, we explained what we wanted. He gave us some feedback and advised us with a couple of his ideas and experience.After this meeting, we drew up a rough plan which he perfected afterwards. Even when building, he came up with creative solutions which made it all work even better.Because we designed it, we thought we would have a good idea how it would look like when finished, but he amazed us anyway, exceeding our expectations!On top of that, he is also a genuinely nice guy!"If you ask me, go for Arne!
Tee Bee from the UK
I found Arne when I was still in the planning stage of buying a campervan. He was so full of ideas and plans for what I was looking for, and after seeing some of his completed projects I stopped looking around for an "off the shelf" camper and put my faith in him to create my very own! I gave Arne my budget and he sourced a van for me and then advised me on fitout essentials, solar set up and layout. I was kept in the loop throughout and when I collected my van it was even better than I envisaged, with Arne putting in finishing touches I hadn't considered.
I travelled around in my van for over a year and loved it so much the only thing I wanted to change was an upgrade of the kitchen worktops from melamine to solid wood, which Arne did for me.
If you are looking for a top quality fit out to your own specifications, with knowledge and expertise to guide you along, then Arne is your man. I've had 2 years of happy travelling, covering over half of Australia in comfort and style, all thanks to the Campervan man

The "Why" of the universe
QUESTION: Masters, Scientists believe there is not enough matter in the visible universe to exert sufficient gravitational force to keep our galaxies rotating, so they have proposed that the galaxies are made up of 25% dark matter. Scientist have also discovered that the galaxies are accelerating away from each other and further propose that the universe contains 70% 'dark energy' which is pushing the galaxies away. Our visible universe of stars and planets is therefore only 5%! Scientists have not discovered any of this dark matter and energy yet. Are these theories correct, can you explain what is really happening? Also, is the big bang theory correct, did source create the universe in a big explosion? ~Arthur, UK
ANSWER: Energy is everything and everything is energy. That includes you and all the souls and Source itself. Once in a human covering, in order to be able to interact with each other, souls reach a mutual agreement as to the nature of the shared illusion that creates their environment. Thus established, some then try to give definition to the creation around them beyond the fact that it is stage dressing. But they are still just energy.
When someone "sees" something, they imprint it on their physical body's optic nerves and continually go back to it, reinforcing their belief that it exists. They will attempt to share their discovery by getting others to "see" exactly what they do. After a while it becomes accepted that it exists, since so many people have included it within the shared illusion of firmament.
Without the humans' physical covering and their projected illusions, nothing exists permanently. It is like a gathering of people: nothing is in the room until the participants arrive, and nothing is left once they depart. They take themselves and any accoutrements with them.
You are trying to analyze an imaginary world created by those souls who have chosen to engage in a scientific theory-laden existence. They have "seen" a galaxy with characteristics they cannot explain because no one has been able to visit within this illusion. Since it is their life work and employment, they feel forced to offer possibilities.
Source created potentialities – positive and negative energies that can be used to create whatever is needed for the human shells to learn the lessons they choose to explore. Consider the projection of a movie in two- or three-dimension vision. It is a potential until it becomes the reality visible to all by turning on the projector light and running the film.
Much has and can be created. You have Westworld, the Game of Thrones world, the galaxies of Star Wars, and the lands of Middle-earth – they are all recognized constructs, and there are many people who feel they are as real as your visible universe because they are part of their illusion during this incarnation.
