TEHRAN, Iran — Iran's state news agency is reporting that the cast and crew "The Salesman," which won two prizes at the Cannes film festival this week, have returned to the Iranian capital where they were greeted by crowds of fans.
IRNA says that a welcoming ceremony on Friday morning was attended by veteran Iranian cinematographers, as well as local journalists and supporters.
"The Salesman" was screened for the first time at the 2016 Cannes film festival. Lead actor Shahab Hosseini won a Palme d'Or for best actor and director Asghar Farhadi picked up the award for best screenplay.
In 2012 Farhadi received Iran's first Oscar when "A Separation" won best foreign film.
"The Salesman" is an Iranian version of "Death of a Salesman," a play by Arthur Miller.

"It's terminal." That's all I could hear for hours. "It's terminal." I was nineteen and about to marry James Madigan, the love of my life in a fairytale wedding and I just got told I have terminal cancer of the brain.
The headaches had gotten worse but I justified them with the stress of my job and the wedding. James had been kind and comforting but I saw his face when the doctors said it, "its terminal." I couldn't breath and I was pretty sure James wasn't sucking too much air himself.
On the way home as we sat in shocked silence, I looked over and blurted out, "James, I can't marry you so don't feel like this is a burden on you or something." I said it with all the pride I could muster and turned to keep from allowing the hot tears to flow. I loved him and nothing was going to change that. The car took a sudden right turn into the city park and came to an abrupt stop. "What?" James voice was shaking. "What are you talking about Carolynn? I love you, for better or worse." His face as intense and his eyes overflowed with the same hot tears that now flowed freely down my face. "I just don't want you to feel obligated." I started to explain. James took me my both shoulders and turned my face up to meet his eyes, "I am totally and completely sold out to loving you, wedding or no wedding. And I am not ready to bury you. We need to fight this." Suddenly James was praying out loud and slightly shaking me as he did. "Holy Lord Jesus this is the woman You gave me to love and protect and care for. I need her. Please, please, please a million times over please heal her and bless our life to serve you and have a family that does the same thing. Please Lord I am begging you." James paused, took a breath and continues in almost a whisper. "Thank you Lord. Your will be done.
That was fifty years ago. The wedding was a fairy tale wedding. James and I got a second and third opinion about the brain cancer and nothing could be found. God had healed me and blessed us with five children, a ministry to the sick and many happy years together.

Driving Site Monetization Using (Good!) Video
Opinion: Ultimately, video content success will be measured by creating sustainable revenue streams
Digital entertainment and video content are kings in today's world, and there is fierce competition among brands to execute exciting short-form and long-form content in order to better engage consumers.
This is not exactly surprising: The multidimensional nature of video makes it a much richer storytelling vehicle than, say, a small, animated rectangular box.
As a result, the demand for video is high, and online publishers have raced to get content strategies up and running that will drive their businesses forward.
Ultimately, video content success will be measured by creating sustainable revenue streams. Video strategies have been wide-ranging, from smaller round-up videos to more episodic endeavors. Each format requires some thought by publishers if they are to develop a monetization strategy that minimizes obtrusiveness, maximizes yield, and—most important—surprises and delights audiences.
With that in mind, here are some things publishers should think about as they develop content strategies:
Format is everything
Users do not click through on videos to see marketing content. It is important to think about the length of a video and to determine the best way to integrate advertising content into it elegantly. As an easy example: a 20- to 30-second news film simply can't stomach a 15-second pre-roll ad.
Advertising insertion needs to be governed by product design, not just yield. Put another way, video content needs to be treated first and foremost as a product if its quality is to be consistently maintained. Alternative advertising options during the content, such as mid-roll, should be considered especially from a latency and consumer experience perspective.
Tie in the brand
Brand integration has long been the most valuable way to integrate advertisers into video pieces. Publishers must focus on developing strategies that allow advertisers to naturally integrate into the content.
If a site delivers journalism rather than lifestyle content, it could focus on the way news companies have integrated using a "sponsored by" basis. Similarly, if a site provides lifestyle content, it should focus on bringing in advertisers that naturally fit into the editorial stories in ways that do not pollute or corrupt the editorial integrity of a piece.
Branded content
Publishers know how to create the content their audience appreciates. They should therefore use their distribution centers and content-production facilities to help brands tell their stories.
In other words, sites know their audiences better than anyone, and they should leverage their knowledge and capabilities to speak on their advertisers' behalf.
The key is to allow editors to run this function, and not publishers. Editors are set up to understand how to execute voice within an audience, whereas publishing teams are inclined to cater to media buyers and planners (who do not represent the core constituency of most sites).
If a publisher can separate the stories from the sales, they can start creating branded content that matters.
It's all about audience
Publishers should leverage technology partners that maximize yield based on their endemic audience. Unlike in the display market, tonnage is not what will ultimately drive video monetization. Every impression should be delivered with an understanding of who will be viewing it. (Another easy example: A user who has high disposable income should generate a higher-cost impression.)
Yield needs to consider audience. This requires a shift away from selling impressions blindly to selling impressions to people that matter to the marketer. This requires a focus on leveraging technology to power people-based video transactions that maximize the potential yield in ways beyond simple volume.
Ultimately, video will help publishers distribute their advertisers' messages effectively, while maximizing yield and revenue for the site itself. Leveraging storytelling, technology, good product design and smart people-based yield can truly blossom an online video market that is formidable, sustainable and of high value.

Here's How You Can Cosplay as Megumin of KonoSuba
If you're trying to find out where to buy or how to create a megumin costume, check out this quick guide!
At our site, you'll only find unbiased reviews. However, we do earn profit from our affiliate links.
There is no shortage of absolutely adorable yet charming characters in the world of anime, and Megumin of KonoSuba may very well be one of anime's most lovable creations. That's why today I'm going to talk about how you can acquire your own Megumin costume so you can cosplay as KonoSuba's most energetic arch wizard!
Costume Guide for Megumin
In order to fully pull off your own Megumin cosplay DIY, you'll need to have all of the right apparel and accessories.
First you'll need three of Megumin's most iconic accessories: her wizard hat, her magic staff and her red eye patch stitched with a white cross.
Next you'll need to get her red tunic complete with a black leather belt that wraps around the waistline.
After that you'll need Megumin's cape which is depicted as purple or black but also has an orange border going all around it. Megumin also wears black gloves that lack finger sleeves.
Then you'll have to move onto Megumin's legs and feet. She wears long brown boots, one black legging on her left and white bandages wrapped around her right leg.
The last thing you'll (probably) need to finally complete your Megumin dress is a wig. You could always style your hair if it is a close enough color and length, but odds are you'll be better off purchasing or making the wig for yourself.
To learn more about where you can acquire all of these parts to complete your Megumin cosplay, read below to find links to all of the necessary parts!
Full Cosplay Sets for Megumin
For those who are in a rush and want to have all of the necessary items for the Megumin cosplay delivered to their door, you are in luck. There are a couple of places online where you can buy a near-complete set of this KonoSuba cosplay.
CosplayFm's Megumin Cosplay KonoSuba Costume
This great outfit comes from a very reputable cosplay costume vendor from Etsy. CosplayFM has done a great job with creating costumes for various characters from well-known franchises like Disney movies, Marvel movies and Nintendo games. Luckily, for all aspiring KonoSuba cosplayers out there, they deal with anime characters as well.
This Megumin dress comes with nearly every accessory needed to pull off the Megumin look. The hat and the eye patch are included along with the appropriate colors on the dress and the cape.
CosplayFM also makes the Megumin dress in multiple sizes and you can even ask for a custom fitted size if necessary. This makes this site a great place to get your Megumin cosplay costume.
CostumeFans' Megumin Cosplay Anime Costume
Another wonderful place to purchase a Megumin cosplay costume is from the CostumeFans page which is also found on Etsy.
Like the previous costume we looked at, this costume is very accurate to the original Megumin look from the KonoSuba anime. There are some slight aesthetic differences that may appeal to you based on your own tastes and preferences.
The biggest difference is that the hat and the cape are more of a purple shade instead of black. Megumin's cape is depicted in both colors in various instances, so choosing the cape's color can be entirely left to your discretion.
Just like with the previous Megumin cosplay, you can indeed choose your preferred size or ask for a custom fit to be made for you. Keep in mind that the CostumeFans' Megumin costume does not include the wig or the boots.
While both of these outfits have just about everything you need to pull off a Megumin cosplay, you have probably noticed that they are both lacking one of the essential ingredients of this outfit: Megumin's staff! That's why I'm going to show you how you can get your own magic staff now.
Megumin Staff Buy
|If you want to purchase your own Megumin staff then one of the best places to get it will be at AliExpress right here. It's a very well-crafted item that is over 5 feet long so it could be up to scale.
|Another great source to purchase Megumin's staff would be at Amazon right here. It's also over 5 feet long and will complete the Megumin look perfectly with this cosplay staff.
Megumin Staff DIY
For anyone who is in the mood to create their own Megumin staff then you are in luck. This Youtuber right here documented their time and the necessary steps to make their own Megumin staff out of ordinary materials. If you are confident with your arts and crafts skills then this process could end up saving you some cash.
Single-Item Megumin Cosplay Links
Anyone looking for ways to purchase items separately for their Megumin cosplay can find individual links here.
|For Megumin's wig you can locate it right here from Amazon.
|For Megumin's boots these tan colored boots from Forever at Amazon would work perfectly, found here.
|Megumin's hat in several sizes can be purchased from Etsy here.
|Megumin's tunic cape can be found right here, also from Etsy.

Megumin WIP pics! 🤩 I bought her cosplay in a half price sale late last year, the cost/time ratio was right & I wanted to cosplay her since I first saw her 😚 Despite buying the costume I still had a bit of work to do. I fixed the ribbons, buttons, added wire to the hat & added extra fabric to the bottom of the skirt since it was too short (I'm 153cm lol work that out 😂). I hated the boot covers so I bought some boots, cut the tops of the covers off, serged them to stop fraying & super glued them on. Finally the staff! It's made of EVA foam with a PVC pipe going through both pieces. The foam was dremeled to shape, heat sealed, primed in plastidip & hand painted in acrylic paint. I chose to paint her staff a darker colour since it's meant to be the same colour as her boots & I chose a darker boot colour because I liked it more 😜 The 'orb' is a clear Christmas bauble that I lightly sanded the inside of, placed a Remote LED light & some glitter organza fabric inside to defuse/hide the bulb. To make the orb appear like it's hovering, I glued wire to the orb & then tied the other end to yarn needles that I pushed into the foam on an angle. Since the yarn needles are so thick they didn't need any adhesive!

ORANGEBURG, NY - The Nyack College women's softball team storm back to win game 2 after falling in five innings during earlier game and improve their Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) record to 2-6 on the year. Elaina Vasquez (Gilroy, CA) would slam a home run in the 9-3 victory as the Lady Warriors split the two games by a score of 8-0 and 9-3.

Inside The Game:
Christine Kline (Midland Park, NJ) started the game for the Warriors and pitched 4 and 1/3 innings, with Tori Flemming (Plano, Texas) coming into finish the fourth and fifth inning. Concordia's offense was strong, multiple singles were hit, along with a timely double and triple to bring in the runs. Nyack's offense was not able to respond. Concordia's Hannah Rubasky pitched a complete game no-hitter in the 8-0 shutout victory as she recorded three strikeouts. Rubasky would almost record a perfect game for the Clippers but an error in the fourth inning was the only blemish during the game.
The second game was won by Nyack 9-3. Flemming pitched an outstanding game, only giving up 4 hits. Nyack began with four runs in the home half of the first inning and then added three more runs in the second inning to take a 7-0 lead. By the fifth inning the Lady Warriors added two insurance runs to keep Concordia at bay.

Action Duchenne is the only UK charity fighting for a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a devastating muscle wasting disease that leads to paralysis and early death.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is caused by variations in the X chromosome, which is why it almost exclusively affects boys.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy can occur completely unexpectedly in normal families just like yours. There are a whole generation of boys living and dying with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in this country.
In recent years there has been research to suggest that young boys with Duchenne are also at risk of related learning and behaviour problems.
There is currently no cure or active treatment but there is HOPE. Hope lies in research and medical science. You can help us make this hope a reality. By showing your support progress towards this cure can and will become an exciting reality.

Square had a fabulous 2017. It ended the year with a bit of a pullback, but it might just be a nice opportunity. Square has formed a nice triangle right at a nice support level from early November.
All of the payment system stocks had a good year last year. With the pickup in retail through the holiday season, this may just be the calm before the storm. I'd let someone else own it if it hits a stop just below $34.
Good trading,

Are we going to see this happening soon ?
Dont want to go spending £200 on a 6600 in the next few of weeks for it to be £120 !!
those projected price drops are Q2 2007 - anywhere from April to end June.... I could not wait any longer - been waiting a year already and there is always "jam tomorrow" so I jumped on an E6700 from the USA ($530 which worked out at £274) - so better than UK price at moment and ends the wait and begins the play!
Try to make each and every day the best it can be.
I am going to sit this one out.
Deo Adjuvante non Timendum
Sounds good, anyone got any idea if that will make C2D laptops cheaper?
ah man, I too dont want to spend £200 on it for it to become £50 cheaper! BUT I CANT WAIT TILL MARCH onwards!
Well I'm hoping to move to C2D soon and any price cut is most welcome
Meh im not waiting any longer, besides already bought a 6300, Its the way it works prices go down after you bought.
40% is alot. But i couldnt wait another few months.
I very much doubt they're gonna cut their prices by as much as 40%, soon. It's probably gonna be a gradual process which will take place over a period of many months.

Ajowan Seeds
Inventory, lb : 0
|Kandarian Organic Farm
Ajowan seeds are small pale yellowish-brown fruits that are striped and curved, like a tiny version of cumin seeds. It has a bitter and pungent taste, with a flavor similar to anise and oregano. Since they contain thymol, Ajowan seeds smell almost like thyme, but more aromatic and less subtle in taste. Ajowan seeds are rarely eaten raw but often dry-roasted or fried in ghee. This process allows the seeds to develop a more subtle taste, as fresh Ajowan seeds are hot and bitter.
Current Facts
Ajowan seeds are also known as Bishop's Weed, Thymol Seeds, Ajwain, Carom, or Ajowan Caraway, are a part of the Apiaceae family. Ajowan seeds is a popular seasoning in the Middle East, North Africa, and India. In Indian cuisine, it is often part of a "chaunk," a mixture of spices fried in oil or butter, which is used to flavor lentil dishes. In Afghanistan, Ajowan seeds are sprinkled over bread and biscuits. Thought to have originated in Egypt, the plant is now often grown in India, Afghanistan, and Iran.

Learning from the schools 'delivering against the odds'18th June 2014
Not for the first time, white working-class children have been flagged up as having the lowest educational attainment of almost any ethnic group in the country (they outscore only Roma and Gypsy children).
Last year, just one in three of these pupils achieved five good GCSEs including English and maths – half the national average.
Sadly, as we highlighted in our report, Requires Improvement, published last September, this is nothing new.
Behind these headline figures, however, are a number of inspirational schools managing to buck this national trend and as part of our ongoing research we have been finding them and talking to them.
White pupils on free school meals in these schools achieve excellent results, surpassing national averages despite the disadvantages they face. Their achievements – and their schools' achievements – are evidence that with a good education it's possible for any child to succeed regardless of ethnicity, income or family background.
We now urgently need to find ways of letting other schools learn from them. That's why, as part of our major review on education, we have spoken to these inspirational heads who are delivering against the odds.
They have shown us innovative ways of engaging with parents, improving pupil attendance and building links with local employers to drive up pupil engagement and attainment.
A recurring message we have heard is that both schools and families have an important role to play.
This shouldn't be seen as an "either / or" debate: if we want to give children the best chances, efforts on both fronts are needed.
Schools can achieve a huge amount but they stand a much better chance if they can persuade parents to stand shoulder to shoulder with them

Saint Kabir lived centuries ago but what he said is relevant even today, when humanity is getting extinct. There is wisdom in the years gone by, the wisdom which if we grasp, we could go miles ahead in becoming something. Something much greater than what we are today.
In our Kabir series, we bring you 3 dohas everytime of the mystic poet, to ponder upon.
1. चाह मिटी, चिंता मिटी मनवा बेपरवाह।
जिसको कुछ नहीं चाहिए वह शहनशाह॥
Kabir says, that the person who has no wishes and no worries has a free mind. The one who doesn't want anything is the real king.
In the 21st century, most of the things work on the principle of making people want more, which needs to higher revenue – thus more money. Now for once, start thinking that if you wanted nothing, if your mind was stable enough to worry for nothing, what would you do? The answer to that is the key that unlocks our true potential. Atleast attempt to try.
2. माटी कहे कुम्हार से, तु क्या रौंदे मोय।
एक दिन ऐसा आएगा, मैं रौंदूगी तोय॥
This one has too much depth and it needs to be understood in the right sense. Kabir's doha talks about how earth is telling the potter that there will come a time when what he is doing to the earth, will be done to me.
It is Saint Kabir's insightful way of saying that what we do to others, others to do us. That the world is a cycle and what you do today will come back to you someday. Most of us in this century are self-obsessed, self-centered with no concern for anyone in need. Expect the same to happen to you, when you are in need. Change, while you can. Dig deep.
3. तिनका कबहुँ ना निंदये, जो पाँव तले होय ।
कबहुँ उड़ आँखो पड़े, पीर घानेरी होय ॥
Saint Kabir has presented an excellent metaphor in this doha. He says that don't crush a blade of grass when it is under your feet. Should it rise up and fall in your eyes, it will cause you immense pain.
This one beautiful way of saying that no matter how small be a thing, we must never under-estimate it. Every thing, every person, matters. Great things have small beginnings. So the next time you decide to insult someone who is less fortunate then you in terms of money, position or fame, think twice. That same person can in the future, cause you great strife simply because you humiliated them.

I want to sleep--nay! I want to WANT to sleep. I can't seem to make myself get into it.
At first I thought I was hungry, so I ate a bannana and several fistfulls of strawberry jelly but THAT didn't work. Then I thought I was too hot, so I turned the fan up really high--but then I just got really cold. Was I thirsty? I drank a bunch of water, ovaltine and coca-cola. What will WORK?! I dun't WANNA sleep through tommorow! GLAAAAAAAAAAGH!!
I'm worried a little that maybe I'm having a psychic vision, that somewhere in the City, an innocent is falling prey to a VILLIAN and I, possessing super powers I'm unaware of, am meant to DO something about it! I worry about that!
I also realised there's a girl living inside me. You see, when I realised the ceiling fan was making the room too cold, my exact thoughts were, "No. She doesn't like that--it's making her cold," I stopped, "She? Who's 'she'?"
And then I realised--what I'd taken for so long as being a latent transvestitism in my psyche was IN FACT the inhabiting spirit of a GIRL.
Exorcism time, you say? HARDLY, I say. I LIKE girls. And I'm LONELY, so this girl can stay if she likes. Maybe I could talk her into singing a lullaby or somethin' . . .

Skip to 0 minutes and 0 seconds (SINGING) God is our fortress and our rock, our mighty help in danger, who shields us from the battle's shock and thwarts the devil's anger.
Skip to 0 minutes and 24 seconds For still the prince of night prolongs his evil fight he uses every skill to work his wicked will. No earthly force is like him. The power of song is something that we're all familiar with. Whether we think of the memory songs that we learned at school or the earworm in the latest singles chart, we've all experienced the remarkable power of words set to music. They seem to be able to attach themselves to some deep part of our brains, so that we can still recall them after years and sometimes even decades have passed. My talented colleague Dr. Alice Jorgensen introduced this video with Martin Luther's famous hymn, "Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott–" "A Mighty Fortress is our God."
Skip to 1 minute and 23 seconds Mediaeval and early modern Europe had a vibrant folk song and ballad tradition. This included traditional songs handed down over generations, as well as more topical songs which commented, often satirically, on contemporary events and public figures. Before the advent of printing, these songs spread from mouth to mouth, often evolving and mutating as they did so. With the arrival of printing, printers who were desperate to find profitable markets, develop the broadside– single sheets of paper, cheaply printed, and often illustrated with woodcuts, featuring material of topical interest. Ballads were ideally suited to this format, and a lively trade developed. Ballads and songs also circulated in pamphlet form.
Skip to 2 minutes and 7 seconds However, the short lived nature of broadsides and pamphlets means that only a tiny percentage of those that were printed still survive today. The power of song to communicate meaning in a memorable way, especially in a society that was still largely illiterate, made it enormously attractive to the reformers. Sadly, tradition is probably wrong in attributing to Martin Luther the question, why should the devil have all the best music? But it's easy to see how the idea stuck. Luther was quick to capitalise on the power of song. As early as 1524, Luther's first hymn book had been published.
Skip to 2 minutes and 42 seconds The title of this book translates from German as "Enchridion, or Little Handbook, quite useful for a contemporary Christian to have with them for continuous practice and contemplation of spiritual songs and Psalms". This title emphasises the fact that Luther intended the work to be used for individual devotions, as well as for communal singing. The small volume, which has been bound here with a number of other works, contains 26 hymns and 15 tunes, most of them written by Luther himself. It tells us something about the popularity of this book that a pirated edition appeared at almost the same time as the official edition. In spite of its popularity though, Trinity now holds the last surviving copy of this book.
Skip to 3 minutes and 27 seconds While hymns were an important part of the continental Reformation, they played a much less central role in the English and Scottish Reformations. Under the reforms begun by Archbishop Cranmer, the services of the Church of England no longer took place in Latin. Following the publication of the Book of Common Prayer in 1549, John Merbecke provided musical settings for the reformed liturgy of the English church. But a lack of suitable English hymns meant that the rule of singing in corporate worship was limited. This shortage was addressed by turning to the hymn book of ancient Israel, the book of Psalms. It was during the reign of Edward VI that psalm singing became popular in England.
Skip to 4 minutes and 7 seconds Thomas Sternhold, a Groom of the Robes and Edward's musical tutor, was the pioneer of English psalmody. In 1549 he published a collection of 51 metrical psalms entitled Certain Psalms Chose out of the Psalter of David and Drawn into English. The project was dedicated to King Edward. Over time, translations of other Psalms were added to Sternhold's work. The result was this volume, The whole book of Psalms collected into English metre. And it was better known as Sternhold and Hopkins. The 17th century churchmen Thomas Fuller observes that Sternhold and Hopkins' piety was better than their poetry, but the occasional clunkiness in the verse did nothing to hamper the volume's popularity.
Skip to 4 minutes and 51 seconds Between its first publication in 1584 and the year 1640, 280 editions of the collection appeared. But the printing of music was a secular as well as a sacred enterprise. One remarkable example of early modern printing from the library of Trinity College is this copy of John Dowland's First Booke of Songs or Ayres from 1603. This collection is notable for its innovative typographical design, which combines settings for solo voice accompanied by a single lute with settings for four voices. These are laid out so as to allow the singers to read from a single copy while sitting around a table. And this feature gives the table book format its name.
Skip to 5 minutes and 34 seconds Now we're going to finish off by listening to Alice singing one of the best known settings of the Psalms, the old 100th. [SINGING] To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, the God whom Heaven and Earth adore, from us and from the angel host be praise and glory ever more.
Reading for singing
Early modern Europe had a vibrant folksong and ballad tradition. Printed songs proved a valuable source of revenue for early modern printers and song played an important role in spreading the ideas of the reformation.

In most romantic relationships we see nowadays, sex plays an important role. If two people want to have a successful relationship, they need to have regular and satisfying intercourse. Now, it doesn't matter if a person is dating a young man, woman, or a sexy gal from the cougar dating scene, sexual passion tends to fade after a while. To avoid that and rekindle the flame, men and women tend to try out new things. One of the newest and most interesting trends in sex these days is the so-called position 77. Some people even consider it to be more popular than the legendary 69. Let's see what all the fuss is about, shall we?
Most Popular Position Among Men
It's safe to say that there are many different sex positions out there, but just a few of them are located at the very top of the popularity chart. When it comes to men, doggy style was always the number one. Guys also love a reverse cowgirl and any kind of position where they receive oral sex. Most men love to be dominant, that's probably why they all love these positions.
Most Popular Position Among Women
The majority of women love to be handled by their significant others, but some of them also love to be in charge. When it comes to their favorite positions, here are the top 3 – doggy style, regular cowgirl, and missionary. Girls love missionary position because it allows them to enjoy the romantic eye contact with their man.
What Is Position 77?
As you probably know, most of these numbers literally describe your and your partner's bodies during sex. The 69 is pretty self-explanatory, however, we get that the number 77 may be a bit confusing, but let us clear that up for you right now. When you're enjoying 77, you're spooning with your lover. The only difference is that you're not watching a movie, you're having passionate sex.
How to Do It Correctly?
To execute this position perfectly, a man has to lie on his side behind the girl, and she has to wrap her legs around her partner's top leg. This way, the girl will always be able to pull herself close to her lover during intercourse. The position 77 is so popular among both men and women simply because it allows a rather unique angle of penetration. This particular angle creates a direct path to the front vaginal wall, which allows a man to stimulate the G-spot with his penis. Therefore, this position provides women with a high chance of reaching the rare and intense vaginal orgasm during sex. Even though doggy style, sixty-nine, missionary, and cowgirl will always be some of the most popular positions out there, we can honestly say that the wonderful 77 deserves its spot at the very top of that list.

Submitted by Thomas Beagle on
ACTA (the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement or ACTA) is proposed as a plurilateral trade agreement for establishing international standards on intellectual property rights enforcement. It is being negotiated between the US, Canada, Japan, the European Union, South Korea, Mexico, Switzerland, Australia and New Zealand. Unfortunately, the negotiations have extended beyond trade and physical counterfeiting to potentially cover non-commercial infringement of copyright material by ordinary citizens and issues of digital rights management.
The latest round of ACTA negotiations is taking place in Wellington from 12th-16th April, 2010.
The Wellington Declaration
A group of people opposed to ACTA held an alternative open conference called PublicACTA in Wellington on April 10th, 2010. The outcome of this meeting was the Wellington Declaration - a statement about what is wrong with ACTA and how it can be fixed.
The following summary of the principles of the Wellington Declaration is from Public Address:
- Transparency: The release of text for scrutiny after each round. A preference for WIPO as the forum for such discussion.
- Evidence required: both of the scope of any piracy problem and the likely impact of any new measures.
- Participation: all sectors to be affected by such an agreement – from health and education to arts and consumer rights groups – should have a voice in its negotiation.
- Exceptions, such as those in our Copyright Act, for fair use or fair dealing must be preserved.
- Privacy: Personal details should not be released without judicial oversight, no surveillance.
- Preservation of existing civil processes, and resistance and "a high bar for criminal liability".
- Damages should be "proportionate to the intent, and to the real and actual harm," of an infringement, and determined by the courts of each sovereign nation.
- Protection for ISPs, hosting services and search engines.
- Access: "We declare that access to the Internet is increasingly necessary for participation in society. Disconnection, account suspension, or limitation of service, have disproportionately negative consequences for civil rights. ACTA cannot require or allow that it be an acceptable sanction for copyright or trademark infringement."
Sign the Wellington Declaration.

Please note that this question might be and possibly is in the wrong category and if it is can the moderator move it to the proper location. My question is, is there an add-on or recommended software that would allow the designer to determine an estimate of the cost to construct the building created in Archicad? I am looking for something that will work with AC files.

A Romantic Beach Vacation in St. Augustine
The Romantic History of the "Old City" Extends To Area Beaches
Emerging from our car, weary after a long drive, I noticed the sharp, salty smell of the Atlantic Ocean and the steady rumble of waves just yards away. My husband, Nate, and I entered our beach house, a cozy two-story bungalow on St. Augustine Beach, complete with a spiral staircase and sundeck. We immediately lit a fire and snuggled on the plush couch, clinking glasses of San Sebastian Castillo Red, a local wine that had been left for us on the kitchen table.
We were craving fresh seafood, so we toured our beach neighborhood and settled on the Conch House, a waterfront restaurant specializing in seafood and Caribbean-style cuisine. Its signature spicy Minorcan Conch Chowder was the best I'd ever had. We dined in privacy in one of the restaurant's "grass huts," booths that jut out over the water and are covered with tiki umbrellas.
Next morning, we headed straight to the GTM Research Reserve, located farther north along the coast. There, we hiked past salt marshes and oyster beds, through hammock, scrub and flatwoods, out to the Tolomato River. The reserve boasts more than nine miles of nature trails for both hiking and biking, as well as beach dune walkovers that lead to a beautiful coquina sand Atlantic beach.
Hungry after hiking, we dined nearby at The Reef Restaurant, which offers indoor and outdoor seating and great views of the ocean. We began with Prime Rib Stuffed Mushrooms – caps filled with shaved prime rib and garlic herb cheese. My Chicken St. Augustine, chicken stuffed with crab, roasted red peppers and asparagus, was delicious, as was Nate's Seared Tuna Duo, twin ahi steaks, one herb-crusted and one sesame-seed-crusted.
We drove back toward the house, stopping at the black-and-white-striped St. Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum. Stomachs full, we worked our way up 219 steps to the bright red lantern for a breathtaking, panoramic view of St. Augustine and its beaches and waterways. Locals say the romantic, historic structure is one of the best places to propose marriage. And each night of the full moon, the lighthouse hosts sunset/moonrise champagne toasts atop the tower.
Back at our beach house, we prepared for our night on the town. While we had come to St. Augustine Beach for a relaxing beach vacation, we planned to spend at least one night taking advantage of downtown St. Augustine's charms.
We started with cocktails at the Tini Martini Bar, a charming lounge with indoor and outdoor patio seating on the first floor of the Casablanca Inn Bed & Breakfast. From there, we walked to Michael's where we dined on small plates of delectable grilled shrimp, juicy hangar steak, cheeses and flatbreads, and sipped a fine pinot noir. After dinner, we strolled around town, stopping to check out the Love Tree – a palm tree growing out of an oak – on Cordova Street.
Next morning we drove the short distance to Anastasia State Park, where we walked the broad, expansive beach, watching surfers catching waves. The park also offers nature trails through a hammock forest, as well as kayaking and canoeing on the Salt Run, a tidal salt marsh. A store inside the park sells camping and fishing supplies and rents bicycles, canoes, sailboards, paddleboats and kayaks.
Afterward, we decided to check out St. Augustine's Castillo de San Marcos, the oldest masonry fort in the continental United States. We toured the fortress's ancient first-floor rooms and dungeons, and then climbed to the top for a stunning view of Matanzas Bay. We walked around to the part of the fort's exterior lawn that's popular for wedding ceremonies.
After all that walking, we decided to treat ourselves to a snack from one of St. Augustine's craft donut bakeries. As we strolled down St. King Street, the heady aroma of baking pastries hit us before we even reached The Donut Experiment, where we sampled our made-to-order donuts with our cappuccinos.
Back at Our Beach House, we took one last walk along "our" beach, which had the softest, whitest sand of any we'd visited. After that, we lit another fire and relaxed, savoring the last night of our beach vacation.

A preliminary finding by investigators looking into the accident May 5 when a Jersey City fire engine struck a Hudson Bergen Light Rail train, injuring 15 people, suggests the fire truck may have missed or ignored a signal indicating the train was coming. The accident, which took place near the Sixth Street crossing just south of the Newport station at about 7:15 p.m., hurt 10 passengers, the conductor and four firefighters, but none seriously. Jersey City, State Police, and NJ Transit officials said the fire truck, on an emergency call, hit the side of the train, caused the train to derail, and brought down some of the system's overhead power lines.

Hoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer and city councilmen Ravi Bhalla and Ruben Ramos released statements on Monday, May 8 condemning a local business owner who was captured on video tape shouting epithets on Washington Street last week after an apparent parking dispute with a duo from out of town. A family friend of the duo, Alan Slaughter, posted a video on Facebook over the weekend. It appeared to show Joseph Ruggiero, the owner of the 9th Cloud Vape Van – a roving ecigarette business frequently spotted around Hoboken – apparently telling two people to "go back to your country" and calling them "immis." Sources said they had had a dispute over a parking spot. Although Ruggiero did not respond to three messages by press time last week, he acknowledged to ABC Eyewitness News that it was him in the video, but said it doesn't capture the whole story. His company said the same on social media. Click here for more.

Nintendo Switch is the official name for the NX. Watch the trailer here
The Switch, formerly known only as the "NX," is Nintendo's new system, the Japanese company revealed in a short trailer Thursday
Article content continued
The Switch, formerly known only as the "NX," is Nintendo's new system, the Japanese company revealed in a short trailer Thursday.
The trailer revealed that many of the rumours about the system once known as the NX were true: it's a device that blends the ideas of a home video-game console such as the Nintendo Wii and a portable console such as the 3DS.
"Nintendo Switch allows gamers the freedom to play however they like," Reggie Fils-Aime, President and COO, Nintendo of America, said in a release. "It gives game developers new abilities to bring their creative visions to life by opening up the concept of gaming without boundaries."
The trailer showed players using the Switch on a home television then snapping the controller in half and sliding those two halves on either side of the system, removing it from a docking unit, and then using it as a portable unit. Nintendo has labelled these two snappable controllers as "Joy-Cons," which will likely be a name which receives much derision before everyone quietly just starts calling them that.
The Switch also has a stand on the back, so it can be set on a table while the Joy-Con is used remotely, or the Joy-Con is separated into two mini-controllers for more people to use. The system is also compatible with a separate "pro" style controller.
Some of the Switch's more technical details, such as the resolution of the portable screen or the overall power of the system, were not revealed Thursday. Though Nvida posted a blog stating that the system would be powered bya custom version of its Tegra processor.
Article content continued
"The development encompassed 500 man-years of effort across every facet of creating a new gaming platform: algorithms, computer architecture, system design, system software, APIs, game engines and peripherals," the blog stated. "They all had to be rethought and redesigned for Nintendo to deliver the best experience for gamers, whether they're in the living room or on the move."
It is notable that the Switch is quite large for a portable system: seemingly quite a bit bigger than the Wii U gamepad. While it's clearly portable, it isn't the kind of thing that could easily slip into a pocket.
Investors seemed to enjoy the Nintendo Switch trailer, as they added US$1.36 billion in market capitalization to the company's value.
The Switch is scheduled for release March 2017, which is before the end of Nintendo's fiscal year.
