Store may refer to:
Storage of wine is an important consideration for wine that is being kept for long-term aging. While most wine is consumed within 24 hours of purchase, fine wines are often set aside for long-term storage. Wine is one of the few commodities that can improve with age, but it can also rapidly deteriorate if kept in inadequate conditions. The three factors that have the most direct impact on a wine's condition are light, humidity, and temperature. Historically, the storage of wine was handled by wine merchants. Since the mid-20th century, however, consumers have been increasingly storing their own wine in home-based wine cellars.
The three factors that have the most pronounced effect on wine in storage are light, humidity, and temperature.
Strong, direct sunlight or incandescent light can adversely react with phenolic compounds in wine and create potential wine faults. Delicate, light-bodied white wines run the greatest risk from light exposure, and for that reason, they are often packaged in darkly tinted wine bottles that offer some protection from the light. Wines packaged in clear, light green and blue colored bottles are the most vulnerable to light, and may need extra precautions for storage. For example, the Champagne house of Louis Roederer uses cellophane wrap to protect its premium cuvee Cristal from light, the wine being packaged in a clear bottle. In the cellar, wines are stored in corrugated boxes or wooden crates to protect the wines from direct light.
British may refer to:
The Britons were an ancient Celtic people who lived in Great Britain from the Iron Age through the Roman and Sub-Roman periods. They spoke a language that is now known as Common Brittonic.
The earliest evidence of the existence of the Britons and their language in historical sources dates to the Iron Age. After the Roman conquest of Britain in the 1st century, a Romano-British culture emerged, and Latin and British Vulgar Latin coexisted with Brittonic. During and after the Roman era, the Britons lived throughout Britain south of the Firth of Forth. Their relationship with the Picts, who lived north of the Firth of Forth, has been the subject of much discussion, though most scholars accept that the Pictish language was related to Common Brittonic.
With the beginning of Anglo-Saxon settlement in the 5th century, the culture and language of the Britons fragmented and much of their territory was taken over by the Anglo-Saxons. The extent to which this cultural and linguistic change was accompanied by wholesale changes in the population is still a matter of discussion. During this period some Britons migrated to mainland Europe and established significant settlements in Brittany (now part of France) as well as Britonia in modern Galicia, Spain. By the 11th century, remaining Celtic-speaking populations had split into distinct groups: the Welsh in Wales, the Cornish in Cornwall, the Bretons in Brittany, and the people of the Hen Ogledd ("Old North") in southern Scotland and northern England. Common Brittonic developed into the distinct Brittonic languages: Welsh, Cumbric, Cornish and Breton.
British people, or Britons, are the citizens of the United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories, and Crown Dependencies; and their descendants.British nationality law governs modern British citizenship and nationality, which can be acquired, for instance, by descent from British nationals. When used in a historical context, British people refers to the ancient Britons, the indigenous inhabitants of Great Britain south of the Forth.
Although early assertions of being British date from the Late Middle Ages, the creation of the united Kingdom of Great Britain in 1707 triggered a sense of British national identity. The notion of Britishness was forged during the Napoleonic Wars between Britain and the First French Empire, and developed further during the Victorian era. The complex history of the formation of the United Kingdom created a "particular sense of nationhood and belonging" in Great Britain and Ireland; Britishness became "superimposed on much older identities", of English, Scots, Welsh and Irish cultures, whose distinctiveness still resists notions of a homogenised British identity. Because of longstanding ethno-sectarian divisions, British identity in Ireland is controversial, but it is held with strong conviction by unionists.

TIP: Don't wait! The sooner you start saving for college, the less you'll have to save each month to reach your goal.
Guaranteed money to help pay for college or whatever life brings
Your child can use funds from the Gerber Life College Plan to follow his or her dreams, whether or not they include college. Consider the Gerber Life College Plan as an essential part of your financial portfolio that can be used for anything at all, from tuition and books to starting a new business, buying a car, or as a rainy day fund. You're free to use your money however you like, no strings attached.
Secure. Growth. Guaranteed.
What's even better is that, unlike riskier financial products such as stocks and mutual funds, the Gerber Life College Plan is guaranteed to not lose value. Every policy is backed by the Gerber Life Insurance Company, which has been serving the financial planning needs of families for nearly 50 years. Plus, the policy earns cash value over time. In other words, you are guaranteed to get back at least as much or more than you put in while having adult life insurance protection, too!

With an affecting compilation of true stories and information, veteran NBA referee Delaney (Covert, 2008) sheds light on the often undiagnosed horrors of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
During his stint as an undercover agent for the New Jersey State Police in the 1970s, the author infiltrated the mafia and witnessed firsthand the depravity of organized crime. He also developed PTSD and has since crusaded to help others who are suffering its ravages, which include emotional, psychological and physiological symptoms like extreme fatigue and paranoia. With clarity and gentle insight, Delaney provides real-life stories amid eye-opening facts. PTSD can affect anyone who has suffered severe trauma—e.g., military personnel, emergency responders and victims of violent crime or automobile accidents. The author cites the Rand Corporation's 2008 study that "approximately 18.5 percent of U.S. service members returning from Afghanistan and Iraq have experienced PTSD or major depression." Untreated PTSD can have devastating effects, as in the case of Gunnery Sergeant James F. Gallagher, a loving family man who hanged himself. Due to social stigma, sufferers are often hesitant to seek treatment. However, there are an increasing number of options for those who do. Delaney urges peer-to-peer counseling for psychological support, and provides contact information for facilities that can help.
A valuable volume of hope, education and awareness.

Performance Teams
ETTINGSHAUSENS have two performance teams at present, the Dynamites (students 3-8yrs) and EDANCE (students 9-17yrs) and they are each a cast of students who train together to do just that PERFORM.
Our performance team programme allows the opportunity for particularly driven ETTINGSHAUSENS students to work as part of a cast that cuts through age group restrictions and focuses on Industry/ Commercial performance technique, skills and awareness. In an open, and often whirlwind, atmosphere students are asked to look beyond what they know already of themselves as performers to new skill sets, performance goals, styles and experiences.
Weekly sessions can involve dance (ranging from commercial jazz to theatre jazz, cabaret and hip hop), acting, repertoire rehearsal, singing, Industry feedback and discussion sessions. The students that make up these teams are required to work at a fast pace in an often demanding environment and are therefore accepted into the programme via audition or invitation only at the beginning of each year.
View a selection of videos of our Performance Teams, or for more information or you would like to book either of our performance teams please contact us today .

This event, which started a few years ago as a running event for 6,000 participants in the American city of Phoenix, has grown into one of the most famous sports festivals in the world. After editions in Amsterdam, Dubai, Hong Kong, New York and 150 other cities, and with more than 1 million participants worldwide, The Color Run will be descending on Sydney this year – and it is raining powder in all the colours of the rainbow.
Imagine: you arrive in snow white clothes for the start of a 5-kilometre running event, and after 1,000 metres, a cloud of blue powder lands on you. Another 1,000 metres further along and you are generously dusted with yellow powder, which is soon followed by orange and pink. By the time you reach the finish line there is not a speck of white left in sight. Then the Finish Festival erupts, even more coloured powder is thrown and you and the other 20,000 participants merge in to a large, multi-coloured living picture.
Taking part is more important than winning – that age-old saying certainly applies to The Color Run. This is not a traditional running event, The Color Run is not a race and you don't even have to run. The participants are not timed so there are no winners; it's all about having fun. You can power walk, walk or skip and dancing is absolutely encouraged. There is only one rule: runners overtake on the right and everyone else stays left, as it is Australia. Other than that, anything goes and there is plenty of time to have fun with the other participants, take a selfie or to give your friends a little extra colour. As there is no winning ceremony at the end, there is instead one big celebration party. At the finish line, all participants are greeted by an enormous cloud of colour, followed by laughing, drinking and dancing. Until you reach the Cleaning Station, The Color Run is the happiest and most colourful 5 kilometres on earth.
"This running event is not a race; you don't have to run and you can even dance"
Inspired by the Holi Festival in India, the American city of Phoenix organised the very first Color Run in 2012, during which about 6,000 participants took part and had colourful fun. The run has since conquered the world: there are events in 150 cities in 50 countries with a million runners annually. The organisation is not shy that its goal is making a profit, but part of the proceeds from every event go to charity. The hope is that with 13 Color Runs in Australia, 1 million Australian dollars (approx. 650,000 euros) can be collected for children who are living with heart conditions.

The post How To Makes Edibles That Don't Taste Like Weed appeared first on High Times.
This article was originally published on Benzinga, and updated for exclusive re-publication on HIGH TIMES.
Cannabis legalization has resulted in the creation of all kinds of weird, unexpected, unconventional jobs, like rolling blunts for Snoop Dogg—for a whopping $100,000 a year. Among the many people with strange jobs, there's one who certainly deserves an article of his own: Jeff The 420 Chef.
Jeff, a cook and baker often called "the Julia Child of weed," specializes in preparing dishes with cannabis in them. What differentiates him from other canna-chefs, however, is his method, which allows him to create "light tasting" and "tasteless" cannabutters and cannabis-infused oils. This means that, unlike most edibles out there, Jeff's food does not taste of weed or "plant," if you will.
In addition, Jeff is a writer, published across multiple mass media outlets, and author of the book The 420 Gourmet: The Elevated Art of Cannabis Cuisine.
Intrigued by this man and his odd job, Benzinga's Javier Hasse decided to reach out to ask him how he does it and what it means for the medical cannabis world.
Javier Hasse: Why are your cannabutter and canna-oil recipes so popular?
Jeff: By taking out the herbaceous taste of cannabis from cannabutter and canna-oil, they will not taint the taste of the recipe. So, the recipe will taste just like it's supposed to taste, but it will still be medicated.
JH: Tell us about your other endeavors.
Jeff: Another thing I invented is the THC calculator for edibles. Now, people can actually figure out the dosage of their edibles per serving—if they follow my light-tasting butter or oil recipe.
In addition, I'm getting ready to launch the Cannabis Cooking Channel, which will basically aggregate everything having to do with cooking with cannabis, from cookbooks and recipes, to learning about other cannabis chefs out there. It's going to be a one-stop shop, an aggregate resource for cooking with cannabis.
JH: People might wonder what are the benefits of eating cannabis. Why would someone want to eat it?
Jeff: A lot of people are medicating with cannabis to treat [any of the] 144 different ailments [cannabis has been indicated for], from anxiety, pain management and migraines, to post-chemotherapy appetite loss and arthritis.
Edibles are a great way to medicate with cannabis if you don't want to smoke. So, you can get the medicine into your body through edibles; that's the next most efficacious way to get it into the system. But, you can't really put enough cannabinoids into your system, for example, to shrink a tumor or kill a cancer cell.
What you can do with edibles is, you can help increase appetite or the opposite. Some people might want to medicate for weight loss. There are some new strains of cannabis that are coming out that have a cannabinoid in them called THCV, which is an appetite suppressant.
If you know these things and you know the different nuances of the different strains of cannabis, you can use cannabis to medicate for a whole array of different conditions. A friend of mine who's been medicating with THCV strains has lost 40 pounds already, just eating salad with THCV dressing. Then, he doesn't really want to eat that much throughout the day.
Each individual strain has its own little magic and cannabinoid profile. If you learn to understand that, then you can actually use it to medicate for a lot of different conditions.
JH: This takes us back to the calculator. Can you briefly explain how this works? What's the idea behind it? Why would patients want to go through an "elaborate process of calculating THC and CBD levels"?
Jeff: Calculating CBD levels is not as important when it comes to edibles as calculating THC levels. The reason is you can never have too much CBD. So, if you're putting CBD into your food, you are going to want to know just how potent it is. You can figure it out with the calculator.
However, the more important use of the calculator is so that you don't overdo it, or overmedicate, or have a bad experience by having too much THC. What the calculator does is, it takes into account all the lost factors along the way, from the time that you purchased your cannabis to the time you actually clean it, cure it, dry it and infuse it into butter or oil.
For most people 10 mg of cannabis is enough to make them feel like they have had a glass and a half of wine on an empty stomach. So, the calculator helps you titrate the medicating process, so you'll know exactly what makes you feel right.
JH: You offer private meal preparations for medical marijuana patients in 31 states. So, how do you deal with legal issue like getting the cannabis? Is it like the people receiving you at their homes are providing the weed for you?
Jeff: Yes, that's exactly what happens, they have to provide the cannabis to me first.
When they provide the cannabis, then they are just paying me for the service of turning the cannabis into butter or oil and then cooking with it.
The reason why I love to do this is because I teach them how to do it themselves. I'll go out there once, and I'll show them how to do it. Once they learn how, then they can do it on their own, and they can understand just how great the food tastes, how it feels when it's medicated […] I love to be there if I can to walk them through the process, to walk them through how it's going to make them feel, and just teach them how to look for the proper strain that is going to help them and then how to use it properly.
JH: Are you allowed to manipulate cannabis legally?
Jeff: Legally, as long as a person has a medical recommendation in a medical state or they have their cannabis in a recreational state, I can teach them how to use it. I can teach them how to make the butter, how to make the oil and how to cook with it, and then they continue on with it. So what I'm doing is just teaching people.
Most of the time, it's me guiding them through the process, and them actually making the butter and oil, and then me showing them how to use that butter or oil the first time around in something that we make. So for me, it's purely educational.
JH: Do you have any plans to start selling cannabutter and canna-oil?
Jeff: I'm speaking with potential licensees and actually working with an oil company trying to develop something very unique under the Jeff the 420 Chef brand with oil and butters, but that's only going to be in medical states that will allow it and in recreational states.
It will be a license, so it's basically a licensed process, but they'll be able to sell Jeff the 420 Chef butter and oils, once I find a licensee for it.
I'm planning to have it done before the end of the year. We're planning to have it all set up and ready to go with product lines, actually cannabis licensed branded products by January 2018.
Now, if people want to learn how to make my light tasting canna-butter and canna-oil, they should sign up with Green Flower Media or check out my Instagram account.

Patna/New Delhi: Nitish Kumar, who was clicked shaking hands with Narendra Modi at the NCTC conference, on Sunday came under attack from RJD chief Lalu Prasad who said the Bihar Chief Minister stands "thoroughly exposed" over his "secular facade".
"Kumar`s secular credentials have come under scrutiny once again after he shook hands with Gujarat Chief Minister and exchanged pleasantries with him in full media glare at yesterday`s conference of the Chief Ministers on the NCTC in New Delhi," Prasad said speaking to reporters in Patna.
Kumar, however, tried to downplay the comment made by Yadav.
"He has said this in sarcasm, now being sarcastic is all that he can do," Kumar said in Delhi when pressed by reporters for a response to Prasad`s comment.
"The Chief Minister stands thoroughly exposed as far as his secular image is concerned as he has always sought to maintain distance with Modi in Bihar, but did not mind interacting with him at places outside the state," Prasad added.
Kumar`s deliberations with Modi have proved it beyond doubt that his "facade" of being secularist was aimed at keeping the minorities in good humour in order to get their votes for staying in power, the RJD supremo alleged.
All the protests by Kumar about publication of his photograph with Modi during 2010 BJP national executive was aimed at befooling the minorities with an eye on their votes in the assembly polls, Prasad alleged.
The BJP was more vocal in its response to Prasad`s comments. BJP vice President Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi today said that the handshake between Gujarat and Bihar chief ministers was a basic courtesy as BJP and JD (U) are allies in Bihar.
"They are not enemies, It was basic courtesy to shake hands. BJP and JD(U) are tested and trusted allies and Modi is one of the senior most leaders of BJP and Nitish is a top leader of JD (U). Before criticising, Prasad should understand this with an open mind," Naqvi said.
Hitting out at Prasad, Naqvi said that neither Kumar nor
Modi needed his certificate or permission to carry out their developmental or political activies.
"Both are icons of good governance and development in their respective states. May be good governance and development does not come in Prasad`s framework or political thought. That is why such type of informal meetings form part of his political criticism," Naqvi said.

As the temperatures increase, so do the number of people suffering from seasonal allergies. Allergy sufferers fight through the tree buds and flower blooms, sniffling all the way. And just when relief is in sight, it's time for fall allergies and ragweed season. So what cities in the United States are best for allergy sufferers?
First, let's determine what makes a place "allergy friendly." Pollen count is a huge consideration when establishing the best cities for allergy sufferers. Basically, the more pollen that's in the air, the more symptoms you will experience. Another thing to consider is geography. For example, cities in the mountains are typically less allergy prone than valleys. Finally, being in the city versus the country can play a factor. Staying in the city, away from the flowers, grasses, crops, etc. may offer some temporary relief.
It's important to note that those who tend to suffer from seasonal allergies will likely suffer no matter where they live. While you may experience a temporary relief from the allergens that normally cause symptoms, you will eventually start developing sensitivities to the allergens wherever you are. With that in mind, if you're a seasonal allergy sufferer looking to escape for a week long vacation or getaway, there are some places that may offer relief from your everyday sniffles.
Based on the temperate weather swings, here are the top 10 cities for those suffering from allergies:
- Portland, Ore.
- Seattle, Wash.
- San Diego, Calif.
- Sacramento, Calif.
- Albany, NY
- Salt Lake City, Utah
- Stockton, Calif.
- San Jose, Calif.
- Colorado Springs, Colo.
- Daytona Beach, Fla.
If you are dealing with allergies and are in need of some relief, consider seeking medical care. At Denton Regional Urgent Care, we have physicians that are board-eligible in family medicine or emergency medicine. We offer convenient access to the expert care you need right when you need it, even after hours or on the weekend as well.
Disclaimer: Patients' health can vary. Always consult with a medical professional before taking medication, making health-related decisions or deciding if medical advice is right for you.

"Town and Gown"-Holocaust Survivor Speaks Out
"Town and Gown"-Holocaust Survivor Speaks Out
By Heather Greene, a graduate assistant in the Office of Public Relations at JSU
"If you would ask me where I am from, I would tell you 'from Hungary,' but this changed every few months because there was a different occupation of the territory every few months," Holocaust survivor Max Steinmetz explains as he recalls the social and political upheaval of Europe during the 1930-40s.
As a teen during World War II, Steinmetz recalls how his family, along with the Jewish people of Hungary, were arrested and placed in ghettos. Several months later, they were forced onto a freight train "like animals or bags of cement."
"They gave each railroad car a bucket of water and two or three loaves of stale bread," said Steinmetz. "You had a variety of people on the cars…We were very, very crowded. If you stood up, there was no room to sit down and if you sat down, there was no room to stand up."
After three days of the appalling conditions on the railroad car, they arrived at Auschwitz in Poland, the largest of the Nazi concentration camps, to face even more atrocious nightmares. By the time of their arrival, a third of the people had already died on the train ride.
Steinmetz recalls being pulled from the freight cars with the other passengers only to come face-to-face with "The Angel of Death," Dr. Josef Mengele, the infamous Nazi doctor known for his interest in performing gruesome experiments.
"He was the German officer in charge of the selection," explains Steinmetz. "He decided who was going to stay alive and who would die."
Mengele signaled Steinmetz and his little brother to the right, which was towards the concentration camps, and Steinmetz's parents and 6 year-old sister to the left, which was, unbeknownst to them, to the gas chambers.
"That was the last time I ever saw my parents or my sister. I never saw them again," said Steinmetz.
Steinmetz and his brother were taken to Birkenau where they were given prison uniforms. Their hair was cut off and all personal belongings were removed from them, even teeth with gold fillings were yanked from people's mouths. After a shower, they were placed in barracks and stayed there for a couple of weeks.
Soon they were sent to Dachau in Germany. After a week, Steinmetz found himself assigned to a slave labor camp outside of Munich. Steinmetz, along with the other prisoners, was given a cup of coffee and piece of bread to start off their day of labor and then given a bowl of soup, which was usually just warm water with some flavor in it, for their supper at night. To make up for the inadequate diet, they would go through the garbage cans to find more food.
Eight weeks before liberation, Steinmetz's younger brother died of starvation.
"My brother starved to death, absolutely starved to death…Many starved to death. Millions starved to death," states Steinmetz.
After escaping during the dissipation of the German army, Steinmetz found kindness from a German lady's hospitality, was taken to a military hospital, and finally placed in a former prisoner camp with other survivors until they could decide whether to return to their homes or relocate to another country. After liberation on May 2, 1945, Steinmetz was 20 years old, 6-1 and weighted 80 pounds.
Steinmetz recalls when General Eisenhower, Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, came to visit the camp to see the survivors he had seen pictures of and heard about.
"He came to our camp after it was over and I was there and saw him. He said, 'I cannot believe. I just cannot believe what we found after we came into these camps.' He could not get over how malnourished, how bad we looked, how miserable we looked," recalls Steinmetz.
Steinmetz applied for an American visa and came to New York in 1945. His employment in the retail business eventually landed him in Birmingham, where he met his wife. They have three children and six grandchildren. In his late eighties, he is still learning and enjoys taking non-credited classes at UAB.
When asked what his advice for the world today would be, Steinmetz said, "Well, one thing is to make sure it never happens again. The most important thing is we must tolerate each other. We need to listen to each other. We don't have to agree with each other…We cannot, just because we disagree with people, jail them and kill them or put them in concentration camps. We cannot allow it. We have got to speak up…It's really just tolerance, acceptance, understanding."

text: So, now that there has been a retail sighting of Animated G1 Recolor Shockwave, I find myself wondering if I'll buy him. I'm pissed because I ripped the hand on my grey one and have not enjoyed him totally because of that. So just wondering out there if anyone is looking forward to the new purple one? Or is the grey one ok for you.

For components with different defects, selecting a proper criterion to predict their failure is very important, but sometimes this brings confusion to engineers. In this paper, we explore to establish a unified failure criterion for defects with various geometries. First, a fundamental and universal law on failure that all criteria should follow, so-called the zeroth law of failure, is introduced, and the failure is completely governed by the local status of failure determining zone (FDZ), such as the stress distribution, material properties, and geometrical features. Failure criteria lacking a local dimension parameter within FDZ may have limited applicability, such as the traditional strength and fracture criteria. We choose the blunt V-notch as an example to demonstrate how to establish a unified failure criterion for quasi-brittle materials, and a series of experiments are carried out to verify its applicability. The proposed unified failure criterion and some existing failure criteria are also discussed and compared. The failure criteria that only include a single critical constant are incapable of reflecting the whole stress field information and local geometrical features of the FDZ. Our proposed unified failure criterion is expressed with a two-parameter function and has a wider applicability.

According to the Trademark Act, any use of the trademark for the same or similar goods or services dated prior to the filing date of the registered trademark might be cited as defense of prior use in good faith and will not be subject to civil and criminal liabilities due to infringement upon the registered trademark. Nonetheless, it is questionable that whether the use in foreign countries or areas outside of Taiwan may also cited as defense of prior use.
The Intellectual Property Court held in 2015 in the appeal case for trademark infringement that the defense of prior use in good faith should limit the use exclusively in Taiwan only, not including any other use outside of Taiwan. The IP Court pointed out that the Trademark Act may only have jurisdiction over the areas of Taiwan; accordingly, any exception to the Trademark rights, which will not deemed trademark infringement, should also limited the use in Taiwan.

The recipe for easy baked penne with ricotta and basil at WholeFoodsMarket.com is a simple affair that contains only six ingredients. The recipe calls for store-bought marinara pasta sauce to streamline the preparation process. An easy baked penne recipe is also available at RealSimple.com.
To make the ricotta and basil baked penne according to the instructions from Whole Foods Market, start by cooking 1 pound of dried penne rigate pasta according to the package instructions. Drain the cooked penne thoroughly, and allow it to cool. Mix 1 cup of ricotta cheese, 1/2 teaspoon of dried basil and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper in a bowl. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of marinara pasta sauce from a 25-ounce jar. Fold the cooked pasta into this mixture.
Coat the bottom of a 7-by-11-inch baking dish with 1/2 cup of pasta sauce, and spread the pasta mixture over this layer. Top the mixture with a sprinkling of the remaining sauce from the jar, along with 3/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake the dish at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for approximately 30 minutes or until the mixture is thoroughly hot and develops a golden-brown crust.
The baked penne recipe by Real Simple involves combining cooked penne with a sauce that consists of tomatoes, heavy cream, garlic and seasonings. Additionally, the dish features dropped spoonfuls of ricotta on top.

Summer school has begun!
This 11 week semester is hopefully going to be slower paced than previous semesters. Please Lord. I am taking Maternal nursing (L&D) and Pediatrics and have clinicals at the health department and a labor and delivery rotation at Matagorda Regional Hospital.
We pretty much know what our pedi schedule will look like, as well as the clinical schedule...but maternal...who knows. It makes me nervous to not be able to predict these kinds of things.
But seriously, I'm just trying to finish. I'm trying to change my thought process to just one week at a time. Just put one foot in front of the other this week, show up and do your best, and be done. I am such an overachiever and I have been working on this for 2.5 years now, giving it my all, and I am tired of doing that. I just don't feel like I can or want to give it my 100%.
Now by 100% I mean I am no longer going to turn down all invitations on the weekends, forgo going to my kids events etc. Yes there are times when I will have to do school work. And when I get a job, there will be times when I have to work. But by then, I am hoping that I have fallen in love with nursing and will find it all worth it.
Until then...make it through nursing school. Complete it. Take the licensure exam and pass it. Then find a job if I am ready. Stop trying to plan out everything and worry about things that haven't happened yet. I'm a work in progress. As Janis Joplin said, "You can destroy your now by worrying about tomorrow.".

The Chicago Bears lost their second straight game this past weekend when they lost to the Green Bay Packers by a score of 23-16.
Despite the loss, Bears rookie Quarterback Mitchell Trubisky had a strong showing throwing for 297 yards. Trubisky completed 21 passes on 35 attempts, and totaled a touchdown and no interceptions.
While the Bears passing game was strong, they struggled with the running game. Running Back Jordan Howard totaled only 54 yards on the ground and was unable to find the end zone. All other Bears players combined for only one yard rushing combined on the day.
Bears linebacker Nick Kwiatkowski led the defense with 9 tackles and a sack.
Following the game, many fans and reporters were calling for Bears Head Coach John Fox to lose job. Reporters took to Twitter to voice their opinions.
Bears Chicago Tribune beat writer Steve Rosenbloom tweeted after the game saying, "Only the #Bears could come off an open date and still lose both lines of scrimmage. As if anyone needed another reason to fire coach John Farce."

Summer came late. My father died. From the sky,
Delhi glittered the way only undesirable things do.
I still cannot eat oranges, the raw brace of blood,
the pinpricked dimples. Mangoes and plums
sweltered and fell from the sky till October.
My mother said, do not come back. I buried
the body like a seed. I wished to be a child again.
Everything felt plagiarized, a bad dream. Onions,
squash, tomatoes split their seams by rain, insects.
After, I could not stop dreaming about her small
hands. I loathed every infant I saw. The ways
in which we knew, and didn't. In this dream,
you're driving and I'm watching the swallows
paint the sky black. The sky moves in the wrong
direction, the highway ahead of us erupting
and folding back into itself. You stand barefoot
in the kitchen and gut a papaya, seeds spilling out
like fish eggs. You're writing a novel about death
and God. You say, this has got to end eventually.
This is the moment before the snow begins.
In this dream, I cut the telephone cord.
We get put on house arrest. I make coffee, black,
while you fry whole eggs in an inch of butter.
In this dream, you leave me at a gas station. I still cannot
walk past playgrounds. In this dream, we name her
Caroline. She has one blue eye and one brown.
I have wanted to tell you this for weeks.
The last text my father sent said Hugs, Dad.
On the way back from the hospital, the light devours
one side of your face. You open your mouth—
only crickets emerge, a swarm. We're swimming
and you slide upwards chin first, the way a child does.
You take the baby clothes and put them all
in a brown box, tape it shut and say, look.
That night, I wake up shaking. I do not know
what to say and so you cover my mouth.

Jay Jay Sita Ram....
Sant Guru Charan main Vandan...
Guru Sant Shri Morari Bapu...
Morari Bapu was born to Prabhudas Bapu and Savitri Ma Hariyani on the auspicious day of Maha-Shivratri in Talgajarda, a small village near Mahuva in the District of Bhavnagar and State of Gujarat, India. Born into the Vaishnav Bava Sadhu Nimbarka lineage (parampara) where every male is called "Bapu" from childhood, Morari Bapu is commonly referred to as "Bapu" (meaning Father). Bapu has five brothers and two sisters, and is married with one son, three daughters and several grandchildren.
Bapu spent most of his childhood under the guidance of his paternal grandmother, Amrit Ma, often spending hours listening to folk tales from her of traditional India. At the age of five, Bapu began learning the Ram Charit Manas from his paternal grandfather, who is his only Guru, Tribhovandas Bapu. Both of Bapu's paternal grandparents were the influential guiding forces behind his upbringing.
Tribhovandas Bapu, affectionately called Dadaji, was a principled and learned scholar of the Ram Charit Manas. He would teach Bapu five couplets (chaupais) with its meaning each day. As the nearest school was approximately seven kilometres from Talgajarda, Bapu would utilize his time while walking to and from school to memorize the couplets with their meanings he had learnt earlier in the day, often singing to the trees and the plant life on his path. Upon his return home, Bapu would recite back to Dadaji what he had memorized.
At a young age, Bapu was also encouraged through letters from his paternal grandfather's brother, Mahamandleshwar Vishnudevanand Giriji Maharaj, an ascetic of the Kailas Ashram in Rishikesh, to be proficient in the Bhagvat Gita and the Vedas.
At school, his teacher Ram Shanker Bhatt, remembers Bapu as a young boy who was an introvert, quiet and an independent student. The High School Headmaster, Narotam Mehta, recalls Bapu as being an intellectual student with an unusually high regard for cultural and religious values, and as a good student of the institution.
At the age of 12, Bapu began to recite the Ram Charit Manas by heart. As years went by, Bapu began to attract the attention of the elder villagers who would test his knowledge of the Ram Charit Manas, and on every occasion, young Bapu would leave the elders stunned. After graduating from secondary school, Bapu started a teacher training course at Shahapur College near Junagadh. Upon completion, he returned to Mahuva where he became a teacher at the J. Parekh High School teaching various subjects including English.
During his ten years as a teacher, Bapu often took time off to listen to prominent speakers and to meet some of India's most revered spiritual leaders. At the same time, Bapu's interest in Indian literature and poetry grew fonder and he regularly attended sessions on various literary subjects by high ranking orators.
Bapu's extraordinary command and oratory style quickly gathered crowds. His first Ram Katha was held at the Ram Mandir in Talgajarda in 1960. Bapu's name, command of the Ram Charit Manas and his heart rending narrations brought people from all over India in the thousands to listen to his Ram Katha, often overwhelming listeners and organizers alike. This was the beginning of a new era of listening to Ram Katha in large numbers by people from all walks of life and of all age groups. Bapu's first Ram Katha outside India was held in Nairobi, Kenya in 1976 when he was merely 30 years old. To date, Bapu has recited Ram Katha in countless places all over India and the rest of the world.
Bapu moves among people continuously. In his everyday life, one can see a conglomeration of ideals that are the basis of a good social structure, and on the other side, smoothly harmonized spiritual practices, devoid of all harshness. His entire living is to bring many different branches and sects of religion (even of other faiths) and the different levels of society to a common ground of undivided understanding, love and unity. He shows a way of uniting not just one nation, but the entire human race, while at the same time, preserving their individuality. He refers to his Ram Katha as a prem yagna where people gather in the name of love and expressly calls out to humanity for love and respect for each other.
In Bapu's words, the summary of righteousness (dharma) is threefold: truth (satya), love (prem) and compassion (karuna). Bapu's life is like the flow of the river Ganges (Ganga pravah) similar to how new water continuously replaces the current stream, Bapu believes in flowing traditions (pravahi parampara) that evolve with the times.

paravirtualization(redirected from paravirtualized OS)
paravirtualizationThe modification of the source code of an operating system in order to run as a guest operating system in a specific virtual machine environment. Calls to the hardware from the guest OS are replaced with calls to the virtual machine monitor (VMM). For example, several operating systems, such as Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD and OpenSolaris, have been paravirtualized for the Xen virtual machine monitor.
Paravirtualization Vs. Emulation
The guest OS can run as is without modification if the VMM emulates the hardware. In this case, the calls from the guest OS drivers to the hardware are intercepted and managed by the VMM, which redirects them to the real drivers. In addition, calls from the guest OS to the virtual memory page tables are intercepted and managed by the VMM. Emulation enables any guest OS to run intact, but emulation is slower than if the guest OS were paravirtualized.
Paravirtualization may be an option. If support for virtual machines is present in the CPU hardware, the guest OS may not need modification. For example, prior to the virtualization circuits built into x86 CPUs, the Xen VMM required the guest OS to be modified. If Xen runs in later Intel VT or AMD-V CPUs, a guest OS can run as is. See virtual machine monitor, virtual machine, hardware virtualization and Xen.
|Emulated Hardware
|Just like running in a non-virtualized computer, a non-paravirtualized guest OS communicates with the hardware as usual. The VMM presents a "device model" to the guest OS, which emulates the hardware. In these illustrations and the one following, the emphasis is on the device drivers.

If you love an image (whether it's yours or someone else's) and want to make sure others get a chance to see it, you can "feature" it by choosing the "Spotlight" button.
When an image is Spotlighted, it receives enhanced visibility in premium spots throughout the site. Spotlighted images are rotated through these higher-visibility positions to ensure the best opportunity for the images to be seen by JPG users.
If you see a great photo that would make a perfect entry for one of our Shoot Out photo contests but it was uploaded by another user, now you can enter that photo in the contest and, if it wins, you get to share in the contest winnings.
Like a photo editor, if you've got an eye for great work, find it and submit it to a contest. If it wins, since you staked the entry fee, you'll take home part of the prize (the rest, of course, goes to the member who shot the image).

There was a TV show on Nickelodeon when I was younger called "Are you afraid of the dark" and one episode was about an evil painter who kidnapped kids by oil-painting them, trapping them forever into his creepy artwork. 18 years later my friends started gluing cut-out photos of themselves onto a thrift store painting. If I ever see a photo of myself on this painting, I will seriously freak out.

great photo

One of my favorite films is The Witches, there was a scene where a witch places a girl in a painting.
Christi G said (24 Mar 2008):
oh man, I totally forgot about the Witches! Anjelica Huston was terrifying in that movie, so great. I'm seriously going to rent that soon.
Joshua Blankman gave props (31 Mar 2008):
Are You Afraid of the Dark used to be my favorite show! Are you thinking of the episode where a woman privately teaches some pupils in painting and lets them finish unfinished works, and they become so involved in the work and once they sign their name, they become trapped in the painting forever? Also I adored the Witches... I think I'm going to watch that tonight now :-P
Christi G said (31 Mar 2008):
Joshua, that's the episode! it's all coming back to me now, how horrible.
Tim Jones said (7 May 2008):
Great Work. Very interesting stuff.

I'm googling that paint as soon as I type this.
That. Is. Too. Cool. Looks like it got wizzed on by a victorian robot with a bladder infection - you know, in a good way.I'm googling that paint as soon as I type this.Neat idea, too. I'd love to hear a sample at some point if you can swing it.
I have a Jaguar that's been apart and waiting for paint ... That stuff looks too cool.
All the ones I have seen in the forums were powder coated. Probably helps a lot.

Bloggers may trade in mobile phones to make use of new apps
A new application for Android smartphones allowing people to blog from their handsets could inspire gadget fiends to trade in mobiles.
Produced by hosting platform Blogger, there are a number of highlights to the app, such as being able to switch easily between multiple accounts and taking photos directly from the program to include in blog posts.
Locations can also be shared and incorporated in articles, while all drafts and published writings can be viewed as well.
Available for free from the Android Market, the app allows people to "easily compose a post, attach a photo that you just took with your phone and either save it as a local draft for later or immediately publish it".
It's not yet available on other smartphone platforms, but the company is currently working on changing this.
Similarly, an updated version of Google Latitude – which allows users to alert friends of their whereabouts on an interactive map – could tempt people to recycle used mobile phones.

This week for my SP and Company post I went really simple.
I stamped the large flower from the For Every Woman set 3 times and stamped a sentiment.
And I almost left it all black and white. Almost.
But I just thought it needed a bit of color.
So I fussy-cut and lightly colored another flower and then popped it.
I also competed in the 10-Minute Craft Dash with this card.
I kinda accidentally erased the time on my timer. But it was just shy of 9 minutes.

Ain't that a pretty cake:) I ordered this cake in conjunction to Tia's birthday and farewell on her last day of school – I admit that we pulled her out at not a good time, which was end of October. For personal reasons really. We're moving houses, amongst one of the many reasons.
Kindicare Play and Preschool of Ukay Heights Ampang has this birthday and swimming bash on the last week of each month. Considering that it was Tia's last day in October, and her birthday is only the following monday after that particular friday, I was allowed to bring in a cake to join in the birthday bash held for kids whom birthdays are in October.
On one condition though- bring a 2kg cake, otherwise just celebrate in their own class. alright, fair enough. so I brought this pretty cake up to the class, and only managed to take this pic of her because the classroom was oh so crowded. I kindly brought some party favors to the 'party' (only because other parents have done so) – 2 little puding jellies, a silly pencil, bubblemix and jigsaw puzzles in a bag for each of her classmates. I made a pretty tshirt with number '4' and a little pony for her to wear so we can take pics of her in it but the teacher has already changed her into her swimsuit. so what happens when i post this pic online? how many perverts are going to steal that photo? hence I could only carefully take her pic from above so that her face is hidden like so:
Memories are still important, smiley face or hidden face.
When I picked her up from school, headmistress handed me a plastic bagful of jelly. "Sorry, we're not allowed to give these to the kids! they might choke on them.." yes, she did took the trouble to open the bags one by one and extract the jellies to return to me, can you imagine how I felt? of course the kids will need help opening the jellies. of course it's up to the parents to throw away or to help them eat.
They had a photographer on that day, and yesterday, event pictures were published. This school has a password protected photo page only parents can view. to my disappointment, there was a birthday bash on that day. THREE kids cutting a 2kg cake. wait, I thought each kid has to bring a 2kg cake? best part is, Tia was sitting in the audience witnessing the celebration. with her pretty birthday top and her birthday cake probably sitting somewhere in the school kitchen.
I was disappointed on how inflexible this school is, and how particular they are with money. perhaps I am not dressed up nicely when i send her to school everyday, looking like a maid? or do i look to immature compared to the other parents who were on the way to work or send their dato datin parents to send their grandkids to school, that I have been treated differently?
Since we don't have anything to do with the school anymore, I decided to send a whatsapp to enquire regarding this issue. a snapshot from the headmistress:
#1 Tia's birthday is only two days away and I did asked if we can just come and bring a cake on monday which is her actual birthday and she said no, better stick to birthday bash. note: i did not ask to come to school to LEARN, but only to celebrate the birthday of a 4 year old. Don't you have a heart to consider?
#2 in the pictures, 3 kids were sharing a 2kg cake. Tia dia suruh bawak 2kg cake sorang2 baru boleh join. plus, since they extracted all the jelly from my nicely wrapped favor bags, why don't you bake healthy little muffins for the rest of the kids? I feel it's really up to the parents and in fact, each parent should bring a 1kg cake. total up kan cukup untuk 1 sekolah? why discriminate?
We're still looking for a new school for Tia, but in Danaukota/Setapak. One thing to consider about sending to a private or international school is this la. it's always about every cent you spend. and it's never about how worth it your cents are. This school does take care of Tia properly, I have to admit and I love that about them. but they are so berkira ya rabbi, from my opinion la. Experience like this actually wakes me up in choosing schools for Tia. perhaps she is better off in an Islamic based school, one with people from the middle class range just like ourselves. Haritu I thought the more I pay, the more they will ensure your child will be taken care of properly. Can't help but to think that I wont be treated like this if i'm still working because my appearance would not be as selekeh. my loss, perhaps. Still don't have the heart to go back to work though because I am now too attached to the kids and I cant imagine how they can handle their lives without mommy everyday.

Life Imitates Art!!
Press Release – Alder Productions
In the mid 80', while Shirley Valentine was running off to Greece to escape the drudgery of suburban English life, Nancy Schroder was running off to New Zealand.
Media Release
Shirley Valentine
June 17th 2010 – The Opera House, Wellington
Dear Alastair
Life Imitates Art!!
In the mid 80', while Shirley Valentine was running off to Greece to escape the drudgery of suburban English life, Nancy Schroder was running off to New Zealand.
In 1983, at 19yrs of age, Nancy was experiencing her independence as a dancer on a cruise ship in the Caribbean; that is, before the ship was commandeered by Margaret Thatcher to serve in the Falklands war. Out went the hospitality facilities, and in with troop supplies!
By then however, Nancy had fallen love with the ship's doctor who was planning to emigrate to NZ so together they set out from the high life of London to downtown Ashburton.
Nancy says of the experience, "well it was a bit of a culture shock, I wasn't even allowed to buy a drink. I think the then legal age in NZ was 21".
Since arriving in NZ Nancy has performed on most stages throughout the country, from Kerikeri to Invercargill – but never in Wellington! Among her many stage appearance she has been a lead actress at Court Theatre in Christchurch (Daughters of Heaven – the Parker/ Hulme Murder (Juliet Hulme)), Mercury Theatre Company (The Crucible (Abigail Williams) & Auckland Theatre Company (Travesties (Nadya Krupskya).
Nancy is also well known for her roles in Shortland Street & Hercules.
Born in Tiverton, Devon, UK, Nancy relocated to London on attaining scholarships at the age of 13yrs – to Nesta Brooking School of Ballet, and later at 16 yrs old to The Arts Educational Stage School (studying alongside the likes of Martin Clunes (Men Behaving Badly, Doc Martin).
Nancy comes from a strong line of thespians; her mother Irene attended Italia Conti with Julie Andrews. Later Irene became a member of the famous "Tiller Girls" at London's Palladium Theatre, working with the likes of Bob Hope, Arthur Askey and Judy Garland. She went on to establish The Willow Tree School of Performing Arts in the 1960s – now celebrating it's 50th Anniversary. Irene, at 80yrs old, still runs the school and continues to teach.
Finally Nancy is coming to perform in Wellington, at The Opera House, for one night only, reprising her role as "Shirley Valentine" a one-woman play that Nancy has performed to full houses, standing ovations and great reviews throughout 2009.
Nancy says of the 36 page script she has to recall on stage "originally when I was asked if I was interested in playing the lead role in "Shirley Valentine" I naively accepted immediately….not realising at the time it was a one-hander" she laughs. "So when I got hold of the script and began to read it, I realised I had to play all the characters and I almost fell out of the chair."
However, Nancy says of the role "Shirley is such a wonderful character, full of wit and insight, and very quirky. She really is a joy to play. Shirley is so non-judgemental, opening her life to the audience as if they are her best friend. The play is a bit naughty; adult if you like and both men and women seem to enjoy the humour equally".
The set & lighting design, has been created by the acclaimed Michael Knapp (Opera Australia) who will once again weave his magic on tour in June for "Shirley".

Knight of Cups
Knight of Cups is a card used in Latin-suited playing cards, including tarot decks. It is part of what tarot card readers call the "Minor Arcana".
Tarot cards are used throughout much of Europe to play tarot card games.[1]
In English-speaking countries, where the games are largely unknown, Tarot cards came to be utilized primarily for divinatory purposes.[1][2]
Divination usage[edit]
If the card is upright, it represents change and new excitements, particularly of a romantic nature. It can mean invitations, opportunities, and offers. The Knight of Cups is a person who is a bringer of ideas, opportunities and offers. He is constantly bored, and in constant need of stimulation, but also artistic and refined. He represents a person who is amiable, intelligent, and full of high principles, but a dreamer who can be easily persuaded or discouraged.
Reversed, the card represents unreliability and recklessness. It indicates fraud, false promises and trickery. It represents a person who has trouble discerning when and where the truth ends and lies begin.

Rüsselsheim. An elongated, elegant silhouette, state-of-the-art technology and extensive standard equipment – in one word: Cascada. With the large convertible, Opel offers a spacious four-seater with a high-quality soft-top otherwise only seen in selected premium brand vehicles. It features superior acoustic and thermal insulation for first-class, all-season driving comfort. The Opel Cascada is a seductive whirlwind with its top down and a quiet Gran Turismo when the top is up. It is a year-round cabriolet thanks to its sophisticated soft-top that opens in just 17 seconds while driving at speeds of up to 50 km/h. And now Opel gives the Cascada the brand-new two-liter turbo diesel engine recently introduced in the Insignia and Zafira Tourer, as well as the three new colors True Blue, Rocky Coast and Coconut. The new 125 kW/170 hp four-cylinder unit with 400 Nm torque meets all the important demands on modern diesel engines and replaces the 121 kW/165 hp engine.
Compared to its predecessor, the new powerhouse boasts three percent more power and 14 percent more torque, yet has even more economical consumption. With the new two-liter turbo diesel under the hood and six-speed manual transmission, the open-air cruiser consumes just 4.9 liters per 100 km in the combined cycle and emits 129 g/km CO2. Thus, the Euro 6-2.0 CDTI boasts improvements of six percent. The powerful engine is a perfect fit to the comfortable and lively Cascada: the Opel convertible accelerates to 100 km/h in 10.3 seconds and reaches a top speed of 218 km/h. It makes the sprint from 80 to 120 km/h in fifth gear in just 9.3 seconds – seven-tenths faster than with the predecessor engine. The elegant convertible with the new 2.0 CDTI engine is available from 30,500 euros (RRP incl. VAT in Germany).
"The Opel Cascada is a mid-size cabriolet with premium features and quality for an extremely attractive price. With the new engine that is part of our extensive powertrain offensive, cabriolet fans now get an engine that sets standards in this class in terms of refinement, power development and consumption," says Peter Christian Küspert, Vice President Sales and Aftersales at Opel Group.
The engineers managed to achieve the efficiency improvements by redesigning the combustion chamber, optimizing the re-profiled intake ports and looking to a new fuel injection system with 2,000 bar and up to 10 injections per cylinder cycle. These measures not only improve the efficiency of the engine, the improved fuel atomization also benefits refinement. Impressive maximum torque of 400 Nm is available from 1,750 to 2,500 rpm. For the first time the VGT (variable geometry turbine) turbocharger features an electrical actuator instead of a vacuum actuator resulting in 20 percent faster boost response and even more driving fun. The exceptionally compact packaging of the turbocharger and the intercooler also minimizes the air volume between the turbocharger and the engine, further contributing to an especially fast boost pressure build up. For durability, the turbocharger is water-cooled and has an oil filter fitted at the oil inlet point to help further reduce wear in the bearing system.
A consistent improvement in NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) characteristics under all operating conditions was a key requirement for the new engine right from the outset of its design. Architectural improvements focused on two high noise emitting areas: the top and bottom of the engine. A new aluminum cylinder head design, including the addition of a decoupled, plastic cam cover with isolated fixings and a sealing gasket, improves noise attenuation. At the bottom of the engine, a new balancer shaft module is fitted, made of high pressure die-cast aluminum. It houses two counter-rotating shafts which offset up to 83 percent of secondary order engine vibrations. As a result of all these and numerous other design features, the new 2.0 CDTI unit emits less noise than its predecessor throughout its operating range, and with 74 decibels at idle it is even three decibels quieter than before. This takes the open-air driving fun in the Cascada to new heights.
The new 2.0 CDTI runs almost as clean as a gasoline engine with Opel's BlueInjection selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system. BlueInjection is an after-treatment which removes nitrogen oxide (NOx) from the engine's exhaust gases. Tiny quantities of AdBlue®, a harmless fluid consisting of urea and water, are injected into the exhaust gas flow ahead of the SCR catalyst and downstream of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The solution is immediately converted into ammonia (NH3), which is absorbed by the SCR catalyst. Nitrogen oxide (NOx) in the passing exhaust gas is then selectively reduced to harmless nitrogen and water vapor in a chemical reaction with the ammonia. The AdBlue solution, available at filling stations and Opel dealerships, is stored in a tank, which can be topped up as required via a nozzle adjacent to the vehicle's fuel filler cap.
Ultra-modern technology is not only under the Opel Cascada's hood: from late summer, the mid-size convertible will also be available with the personal connectivity and service assistant Opel OnStar. The built-in 4G LTE connection enables mobile data speeds up to 10 times faster than with 3G technologies. The system offers increased responsiveness and can support simultaneous voice and data connections. Opel OnStar raises in-vehicle communications and on-board entertainment capabilities to a new level. Thanks to the powerful Wi-Fi hotspot, up to seven mobile devices can be connected to the system simultaneously.

All heart surgery patients get their blood sugar checked after surgery. Any patient who has high blood sugar after heart surgery has a greater chance of getting an infection. This measure tells how often the blood sugar of heart surgery patients was kept under good control in the days right after their surgery.
Even if heart surgery patients do not have diabetes, keeping their blood sugar under good control after surgery lowers the risk of infection and other problems. "Under good control" means their blood sugar should be 200 mg/dL or less when checked first thing in the morning.

With the NBA match of this season coming to the current stage, the competition for MVP of the regular season is becoming more and more intense. The former Golden State Warriors coach and the current ESPN commentator Mark Jackson expressed his own point of view in a recent interview. "The NBA MVP of this season will be James Harden, rather than Stephen Curry."
Okay, no matter who will be the MVP of this season, James Harden and Stephen Curry are both the greatest NBA players, right ? If you are a fan of Harden or Curry, you can go to fandomsky to have a look. Have a nice day !
