I stood in my corridor in the dead of the night and looked at all the rooms around me. I walked in the corridors, and smiled at the little posters, drawings, messages, or names hanging on the doors. A door suddenly opened, and I peeped inside. Framed photographs, post-its, lights, books, mess, laughter. I knew the girl. She smiled at me. She had a mug of coffee in her hand.
I smiled back. There is a story behind every door. Suddenly I was filled with a sudden happiness. So many of us. SO many of us. Studying together. Living together! You enter any room and there is just so much happening behind it. You cannot even begin to fathom it. Tiny little worlds inside a big one. And all of us live in our bubbles, our own lives, friends, problems, memories, experiences. Sometimes the bubbles collide momentarily, and then off we go our separate ways. Sometimes the bubbles collapse and merge into one big bubble, and we float in it together.
Also, another observation. When I came here, I used to have these sudden imaginations where I would mistake people for my own friends back home. It happened very, very frequently and it was almost freaky. I used to tell so many people they remind me of so many other people I knew. Fast forward to yesterday, when I saw a group photo of my old college friends on Facebook, and I mistook three of them to look very much like my friends here! What's more, one of the teachers looked like my current professor! It's nothing big, but it's just funny how we get accustomed to faces. And then we find those faces in other faces.
Also, you should listen to The Shins' latest album: Port of Morrow, if you are into their kind of music. But pliss to give it a try. I just had Top Ramen noodles, and I had a very weird day. Don't know what to make of it. Well, except for tea time, where I sang Linkin Park songs and looked at the sun dipping behind the clouds till the moon rose on the other side of the sky. The song 'Aashiyaan' (Barfi) is making me super super emotional right now and I am resisting a fierce urge to cry.
"Dabe dabe paaon se, aaye haule haule zindagi.
Hothon pe kundi chadha ke hum, taale laga ke chal
Gumsum taraane chupke chupke gaayein.
Aadhi aadhi baant lein, aaja dil ki yeh zameen,
Thoda sa tera sa hoga, mera bhi hoga, apna ye aashiyaan."
"Dabe dabe paaon se, aaye haule haule zindagi.
Hothon pe kundi chadha ke hum, taale laga ke chal
Gumsum taraane chupke chupke gaayein.
Aadhi aadhi baant lein, aaja dil ki yeh zameen,
Thoda sa tera sa hoga, mera bhi hoga, apna ye aashiyaan."
The crickets are extra loud today. And the silence brings the pre-exam feeling in dangerous amounts. And I miss the curled up figure of my roomie inside her red blanket and her gazillion jerky loo breaks which occur throughout the night, every night. And there is a big ugly insect inside my room and I'm not going to do anything about it.
If I'm making no sense, it's the CH30CH3. Let's hope for a better day tomorrow.
Yep, let's do that.

Children Of The Moon
The moon was full and bright.
Everything along the road was bathed in the vapor whiteness. I wondered what stark white image I cast back in the moon's gleaming glow, as I moved around the curves, early in the pre-dawn hours. It seemed as though the moon was guiding me to my morning destination, like a north star. During this journey, the memory of a sunset at a tee pee camp for children, came snapping forward, like on a view master clicking to the next picture. I remembered my children of the moon.
All of us wee campers took a walk down to the spring to watch the fading sun. We where up on a hill that over looked an open farm field. The sun was colorful as always on its decent down. But when the sun had finally faded, we turned ourselves to the East, toward the spring and the woods.
Each child could be heard sucking in their breathe with surprise and awe when they saw the moon. It appeared bigger than the sun, rising behind the trees, silhouetting the landscape in black. We all agreed, the moon was beautiful, and then remained silent until the rising was complete.
We walked back to our campsite totally touched by the grace of the moon and blessed its glow for lighting our path on the way back to our tee pee lodges and campfire. We then realized that out of the darkness, the Creator can give us such wonderful light.
They say that out of the darkness, light will grow.
Growing up as a child is not easy, especially these days when peer pressure is at their front door step at the age of two! So as all children, these young campers where thrilled over the experience of the moon. They all felt the magic.
For those who were shy, they where laughing and sharing with others. Some who were overbearing, were easing up on their behavior. For those who had heavy thoughts on their hearts, were opening up themselves that week end and feeling lighter in spirit.
At the end of the second night of camping, we all gathered around the camp fire, and the images I saw casting back to me were children beaming with new inner growth. To me their faces became bright lighted moons. They become children of the moon!
Very nice. This story would make a wonderful cbildren's book!
I was thinking about the Moon ... can You explain the meaning of the Thirteen Moons (if You happen to know about it)? The western calendar only shows twelve so, I am a little confused on this matter.
Thank You.
"We then realized that out of the darkness, the Creator can give us such wonderful light. They say that out of the darkness, light will grow." - I have the same feeling. In the most darkest moments, I can still find Light. Words cannot express my feelings of gratitude for that.
What a wonderful story! Thank You so much for writing it. This wolf appreciates Light. : )
Keep the camp fires burning, just for me. Fascinating

Hotel and guesthouse owners in Galway and across the country are reporting a good start to the year, according to an industry survey undertaken by the Irish Hotels Federation (IHF ) in advance of its 80th Annual Conference in Cavan.
Most are forecasting an increase in business levels for 2018 with advance bookings up from domestic and key overseas markets, helping to offset the drop in bookings from the UK, Ireland's largest market, where visitor numbers continue to fall. The high cost of doing business, including insurance, continues to be a major concern.
Seven in ten (72 per cent ) hoteliers say their overall business levels are up compared to this time last year, with a similar number (68 per cent ) reporting an increase in advance bookings for the remainder of the year. Business levels from the US look set to remain strong with over half of hoteliers surveyed reporting an increase in business from this market. Visitor numbers are up too from continental Europe with almost a third (32 per cent ) reporting an increase in business from Germany and nearly a quarter (23 per cent ) seeing a rise from France.
Rory Fitzpatrick, Chair, Galway branch of the Irish Hotels Federation said that overall hoteliers are confident about the outlook for 2018, but not complacent. "The increase in business levels that we are seeing from key international markets and from within Ireland itself, following on from strong growth in recent years, gives us some confidence.
"However, the negative effect on visitor numbers from the weakened sterling and uncertainty over Brexit reminds us that we're an island nation, dependent on the vagaries of other, larger economies, and there is never room for complacency," he said. Tourism currently supports 17,000 jobs in Galway and contributes some €762 million to the local economy annually.
"We operate in a price sensitive sector where we compete with the UK for overseas visitors. A sustained fall in sterling could have a negative effect on visitor numbers from other markets who may opt instead to go to the UK. Cost-competitiveness is critical. Government cannot influence the economic conditions affecting other countries but there is a wide policy range of measures within their control that can enhance competitiveness. The 9 per cent VAT rate and zero travel tax, for example, have been hugely significant in underpinning the recovery of the tourism sector. However, more needs to be done to bring down the high costs that are stifling business in Ireland such as insurance, where the costs are now so high they are a significant concern for almost nine in ten hoteliers (88 per cent )," he said.
Mr Fitzpatrick added, that it is important that there is a continued commitment to enhancing and developing the experiences that we offer visitors - from at home and overseas.
"The hotel sector has an important role to play here and, as our member survey highlights, most hoteliers across the country are planning to invest in their properties this year – from expansion in some cases, to refurbishment, or investing in new technology to upgrade existing operational and guest services.
"But, it's also about market diversification and reinvigorating our tourism brand, to create compelling offers that appeal to new markets while at the same time helping us to consolidate our market share in existing markets. More needs to be done, especially in regional tourism marketing. There are parts of the country like the Shannon Corridor, which have much to offer and with the right support they could expand Ireland's tourism offering and greatly benefit the rural economy," he added.

The Distinguish Senator Tijjani Y. Kaura (Senator Representing Zamfara North Senatorial District) today Wednesday July 26th, 2017, is saddened by the news of the passing on of His Royal Highness the Emir of Tsafe, Yantodo Habibu Aliyu, who died at the early hours of the day at the Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital, Sokoto, after a protracted illness.
Senator Tijjani kaura who is also the Chairman (Senate committee On Federal Character commission and inter Governmental Affairs) , described the death of the late Emir of tsafe Alhaji Habibu Aliyu as a great loss, not only to the family, Tsafe Emirate and Zamfara state in particular, but to the entire Country as a whole, due to his starling qualities of leadership, humility, honesty and integrity.
The Senator Tijjani Yahaya Kaura said the late Emir has left a vacuum that would be difficult to fill, considering his exemplary leadership and the way he carried along his subjects in decision making process throughout the period of his reign in the kingdom of Tsafe.
Mr. Senator Tijjani kaura therefore extends his heartfelt condolences to the late Yantodo's family, friends, associates the government and people of Zamfara state and prayed Allah (SWT) to grant him with paradise and give the family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
Malam Senator TY. kaura also consoles with the Emirate and people of Tsafe, the Zamfara state Council of Chiefs and the Sultanate Council.
According to the Senator Tijjani Y. Kaura the life and times of Late Yandoto Habibu, an ardent advocate of peace, the rule of law and economic development, reflected a combination of profound traditional rulership, courage and admirable grace in conduct and manner.
Senator kaura said as traditional ruler, the late Emir has served his people to the best of his ability, defended the interest of his subjects at all times and fought for their rights in all circumstances.
He proved to be principled and forthright both in private practice and as Traditional Ruler and would always be remembered.

Jesse Jones Helps New Vespa Owner with Licensing Problem
It was the first new vehicle Michael Smith ever bought.
"People stop me at intersections and say, hey nice bike," said Smith about his new red Vespa scooter.
Smith is a teacher, but his Vespa dealer-Big People Scooters in Georgetown is tardy with his ownership paperwork.
"They told me they were going to file the paperwork and the stuff should arrive in about a month," said Smith.
Smith paid for the bike in full. But since the business didn't provide the paperwork, his registration is branded "ownership in doubt."
"If you don't have the ability to provide the title and the paperwork that i'm paying for, you should at least let me know," said Smith.
Mike called me and I started looking into Big People Scooters, which led me to Christine Anthony from the Department of Licensing.
"They let their license lapse back in 2011. So they are not currently a licensed vehicle dealer," said Anthony.
That meant Big People Scooters is missing some of its own paperwork. And it can't sell a single scooter without it.
"In this case, we found 22 separate sales and we could fine them up to $1000 per each of those 22 cases," said Anthony.
I sat down with Victor Voris, owner of Big People Scooters, and told him he wasn't licensed.
"I apparently was not licensed, no, but I didn't know that, or I would not have sold it to him," said Voris.
I gave him the DOL email describing the allegations against the business.
Voris said, "we have a Washington State Business License." I explained that he needs a dealer license. "I thought that was being, I thought we had that," Voris continued, "no I'm not sure, like I said, this is information I have not seen before."
The DOL said it is investigating this case for administrative action against Voris and his business.
Smith still needed his ownership paperwork. I asked Voris if we could stop by and get it. "I would love to have it for you tomorrow," said Voris.
The very next day, I scooted over to see Smith and give him the paperwork.
"I am so excited, yes big weight off my mind," said Smith, "it's been six months of, when can I get this done, now it's done! So exciting"

Wednesday 12 November saw an enthusiastic crowd turn up at The Lights to find out what ideas and aspirations were recorded for the future of Andover by residents when they visited the Encounters pop-up shop experience in the summer.
More than a thousand people left their memories, thoughts and suggestions about the town in the Encounters shop during May and June, and these were collated and presented to the public recently by Ruth Ben Tovim of Encounters Arts.
A number of themes have been identified and these will be considered and taken forward by Test Valley Borough Council's Town Centre Environment Group in 2015. The group was formed out of the work of the Andover Summit and is focused on overseeing future work and initiatives relating to the physical environment of the High Street and its surrounding areas.
Recommendations from the Encounters project include enhancing the visual appearance of the High Street and increasing the number of large scale town events across the year; connecting more with the natural environment; fostering the sense of community in Andover and developing more incentives for local social enterprise and small businesses.
Leader of the Council, Councillor Ian Carr, said: "The Encounters pop-up shop was an innovative and exciting way for the Council to engage with local people in an informal and creative way. The recommendations are directly from the heart of the people of Andover. Our task now is to distil these ideas into a practical action plan to take forward over the coming year."

Since when is Jew-hatred "dissent"?
How hypocritical (but typical) of Muslims to cry about "shutting down dissent" when it's their hate speech being silenced. Here's what Muhammad did to one poetess who "dissented":
"Then (occurred) the sariyyah of Umayr ibn adi Ibn Kharashah al-Khatmi against Asma Bint Marwan [. . .] She used to revile Islam, offend the prophet and instigate the (people) against him. She composed verses. Umayr Ibn Adi came to her in the night and entered her house. Her children were sleeping around her. There was one whom she was suckling. He searched her with his hand because he was blind, and separated the child from her. He thrust his sword in her chest till it pierced up to her back. Then he offered the morning prayers with the prophet at al-Medina. The apostle of Allah said to him: "Have you slain the daughter of Marwan?" He said: "Yes. Is there something more for me to do?" He [Muhammad] said: "No . . . " (Ibn Sa'd's Kitab al-Tabaqat al-Kabir).
It's about time UC Irvine does something about the jihad on its campus.

Two important dates are approaching: Wednesday, February 23 and Thursday, February 24
One year ago on February 23, 2010 at 3:00pm Cuban prisoner of conscience Orlando Zapata Tamayo died (or was extra-judicially executed) after 83 days on a water-only hunger strike. During the strike prison officials denied him water contributing to his death which constitute both torture and murder.
The Free Cuba Foundation on January 22, 2011 called on people of good will to join us in fasting and prayer for Orlando Zapata Tamayo, Carlos Costa, Pablo Morales, Mario De La Peña and Armando Alejandre Jr. on February 23 and to then organize vigils and moments of silence between the times when both Brothers to the Rescue planes were shot down at 3:21pm and 3:28pm on February 24.
Now we are announcing activities taking place in Miami, Florida and invite you to send us news about actions that you are carrying out around the world. Please come back to this page. We will be adding photos and images that you can use for your own event(s).

City needs new mindset more than a makeover
What's so beautiful about Chandigarh? That's what many commuters seem to wonder as they patiently negotiate potholes and bumpy stretches while crawling through haphazard traffic on entering the city via Zirakpur. Writes Yojana Yadav.chandigarh Updated: Aug 18, 2014 13:56 IST
What's so beautiful about Chandigarh? That's what many commuters seem to wonder as they patiently negotiate potholes and bumpy stretches while crawling through haphazard traffic on entering the city via Zirakpur. Driving through the Manimajra barrier is no different. Wild growth, ill-maintained roadsides and dividers make all claims of visiting the country's first planned city sound hollow.
It hurts to see parthenium or congress grass growing rampant right under the CITCO umbrella after the railway crossing. The monsoon has been around since last month and so has the wild growth. The rail crossing got a facelift recently but the stretch a few metres ahead is a picture of neglect.
The official apathy is for all to see across the town as bougainvillea shrubs grow wild on dividers and tall grass makes it difficult to walk through any open patch.
In fact, barring the wide roads, which don't seem as wide any more thanks to the growing traffic, and the few roundabouts, Chandigarh is fast losing its beauty. The Sukhna Lake, the Rock Garden and even the Rose Garden are losing their pride of place simply because of the lack of maintenance.
Picnics and get-togethers at these one-time haunts are becoming a fading memory. It's time we reinvented our public spaces and took pride in maintaining them than lose them to neglect.
The neighbouring Sector 17 wears a decrepit look with building facades that are pockmarked with telltale signs of weathering. A walk down any stretch in the heart of the city's commercial complex is interrupted with broken tiles, lose slabs, wires dangling overhead and a fetid stench. We choose to forget the world outside the moment we step into the air-conditioned environs of glitzy showrooms. Business done, we beat a hasty retreat for the comfort of our cars, shutting out the uncomfortable reality.
The state of public amenities anywhere in town is not worth mentioning. God forbid if one needs to use a public toilet. It's far more convenient to rush back home or visit the nearest friend's place.
So who can help Chandigarh regain its lost glory? Many believe it is for the union territory administration's to do the dirty job. Perhaps to a certain extent it is, but don't the people who call this city their home have a role to play too? Why can't the elite showroom owners of Sector 17 pool in funds and take pride in maintaining their area? Why can't students initiate cleanliness campaigns on the campus and beyond? Why can't the aam aadmi rise to the occasion? Why can't he teach his children the values of cleanliness and dignity of labour?
Come to think of it, the City Beautiful doesn't necessarily need a makeover. It's we, the residents of Chandigarh, who need to change our mindset for she only needs our care and concern.

Have you ever ate an abundance amount of food and immediately regretted it afterward? Pretty sure we all have. There's been plenty of times when I ate an unreasonable amount of food and felt extremely guilty afterward. Here are some tips of what to do.
First off, don't beat yourself up too much, if at all. Learn from your mistakes, and the experience will eventually make you stronger later on.
Secondly, drink TONS of water! You might think the water is going to make you even more bloated and retain more water, but overall the water will flush out all the toxins in your body and move everything through your digestive system quicker. The water will also keep you full too of course. Green tea and other clean teas (that aren't filled with sugar of course) are really good for you. The tea will help flush out the toxins A LOT. There are so many teas out there that can do different things for you, like helping with sleep, giving you a more 'positive' mood, and so on. I love tea!
Thirdly, DO NOT skip meals because your last meal was so huge. Go back to your normal pattern, and eat healthily. If you ate like crap in the morning, don't automatically think the rest of the day is a waste. You have plenty of more hours to make up for the morning meal. Also, don't skip out on your workout just because of the one bad meal. Remember, that one workout is better than not working out at all. In my opinion, every time I work out I automatically feel 100% back on my A game and ready to get back on track, rather than not working out at all and feeling like a lazy bum.
Fourthly, realize we are all human and slip up every now and then. Don't feel lonely in the process of changing your lifestyle, all these mistakes that you are going through are only making you a stronger person. You are also in the process of seeing what works for you. Something that works for someone else might not be the same for you, so don't get stressed. Someone might lose weight quicker than you or lose body fat quicker than you. Everyone's body is different and loses weight at different rates.
Last but not least, find an accountability partner that can help you stay on track. Do whatever works for YOU and makes you happy.
And as I've said before, be proud and congratulate yourself for even taking the step to be healthy. By simply putting in the effort to read fitness blogs, you are wanting to become healthier and better your lifestyle. Always try your best to keep a positive attitude.
If you have a deep binging problem and do it a few times a week, you might want to seek professional help.
What are some things you do after a binge to get back on track?

It seems that we are on a never-ending mission to create the perfect closet. You may feel like no matter how much you shop, you never have anything to wear. A well-balanced wardrobe is a little bit trendy mixed in with classic investment pieces. Try out my shopping motto: less quantity, more quality. It's more important to spend more on a few classic pieces that will never go out of style rather than trendier styles that you'll throw away after a year. There are certain items that belong in every girl's closet. If you are thinking to yourself that it sounds super boring, then clearly you don't know the power a crisp white button-down shirt can do. Once you have filled your wardrobe with the perfect staples, you can build your closet around them. This task is even more useful to those who haven't quite found what their personal style looks like. Once you have a strong selection, you will have a better understanding of what you want your clothes to say about you. Everyone is different but when it comes to the following, I believe we can all get onboard and say that they are pieces every girl should invest in.
The Right Jean
You can own dozens of pairs of jeans but what is most important is finding the style that works for your body type. It doesn't matter if flared is currently the "in-style" jean, if your body type is best for skinny jeans, then spend the money on the perfect pair and take care of them.
If you do not own a little black dress, turn your computer off, and buy one right now! The LBD is the most important item in a girl's closet. It can be worn for any occasion, and it has versatile style options. When investing in the perfect one for you, make sure it is feminine but not too revealing. You want to make it appropriate for work and for cocktail hour.
Tailored Blazer
Whether it is black, navy, or nude, we can all agree that the key word in this title is tailored. If the blazer does not fit to your body, then what's the point? I own a few (okay 10) blazers and each one is classic and goes with everything. It can be worn conservatively with trousers for the office, add sophistication to a flowy dress, or dress up a pair of jeans. There is really no end to what a classic blazer can do!
Black Pumps
Why black pumps? They go with everything! We should start referring to them as the LBP because they are as important as a black dress. Whether they are pointy or round toed, black pumps can be sophisticated, professional, and sexy all at once. The most important thing when buying your perfect pair is to make sure they are comfortable. Most women are drawn to high heels but, if they aren't comfortable to walk in, what's the point?
Every woman should own a structured tote. It can be in whatever color you choose. In my opinion, sticking to neutral colors is the best way to go. You need at least one bag that is chic, fits the necessary belongings, and can be worn throughout the day.
White Buttoned Down Shirt
This is the perfect layering piece that also looks good when set apart. If you put it together with your tailored blazer, jeans of choice, and black pumps, you have an outfit that will never go out of style. Make sure it is crisp, high quality, and take care of it with trips to the dry cleaners.

Eight Unmissable Member Events This Week: October 25 - 31/
Among the BC Alliance for Arts + Culture's 445 members are artists, performance groups and cultural workers at museums, theatres, concert venues, community organizations, professional associations and more. Here's what some of them are up to this week.
The Line
You may never look at clothes hanging from a clothesline the same way again after seeing this multidisciplinary work, presented by Victoria artist run centre Open Space. Choreographed by Lori Hamar, The Line features two dancers manipulating a clothesline in all manner of ways to depict the human condition. Continuum Consort performs the score by Linda Bouchard with lyrics excerpted from writings by Nobel Peace Prize winners.
(Victoria: Oct. 28)
Evelyn Glennie Performs with the VSO
Percussionist Evelyn Glennie is profoundly deaf, so she listens to music with her body, not her ears. The double Grammy Award-winner is a champion of new works, and at the Orpheum she performs a 2005 piece by Jennifer Higdon which probes the sonic possibilities of percussion in an orchestra setting.
(Vancouver: Oct. 28-30)
BC Alliance executive director Brenda Leadlay has seen this show, "and it's a winner." A part dance, part theatre meditation on dementia, it's performed by the legendary Dulcinea Langfelder. Massey Theatre presents the funny tragedy.
(New Westminster: Oct. 25)
Fringe Cabaret: Back From The Dead
Granville Island's Studio 1398 is haunted and more than a dozen restless spirits from Fringes past are here to prove it.
(Vancouver: Oct. 31)
The Big Reveal: Emily Carr University of Art + Design Open House
BC Alliance member Emily Carr University invites all to explore its new digs. The open house features art demos, a digital graffiti wall, animation screenings, community weaving project, and the Alumni Art Market. Explore the campus's light-filled studios and shop for art and crafts created by graduates.
(Vancouver: Oct. 27-28)
New Shows at Vancouver Art Gallery
Vancouver Art Gallery launches four new exhibitions, including the touring blockbuster Portrait of the Artist: An Exhibition from the Royal Collection; True Nordic, about ways Scandinavian design influenced Canadian designers, and two show by Metro Vancouver artists. Gordon Smith: The Black Paintings is a series of mostly black paintings that reference his war experience, where the 96-year-old West Vancouver-based artist shattered his leg. "The psychological content is so dense as to almost be surrealist," says Canadian Art. And Carol Sawyer's The Natalie Brettschneider Archives depicts the curious, remarkable work of a fictional artist, who symbolizes real-life, but lamentably under-the-radar female artists, who practised in BC and Europe from the 1920s to the 1970s.
(Vancouver: Members' Opening Oct. 27)
Zakir Husain and Dave Holland in Crosscurrents
A concert season highlight. Zakir Husain, the world's foremost tabla master, joins forces with the brilliant bassist Dave Holland, who has played with Miles Davis, Chick Corea and many other luminaries—and takes a stellar quintet along for the ride. The Chan Centre presents this exploration of the intersection between the Indian music and jazz.
(Vancouver: Oct. 28)
Downtown Eastside Heart of the City Festival
Missing is a chamber opera that pays tribute to the more than 1,200 missing and murdered First Nations women in Canada. To her help write her first opera, Marie Clements spoke with elders who have lost daughters, sisters and friends. "The story of Missing can't answer the questions I've been asking my whole life, but I am hoping it will join other voices who are asking the same questions and demanding an end to what should be unfathomable," says Clements. Co-produced by City Opera Vancouver and Pacific Opera Victoria, and starring Melody Courage and Caitlin Wood, with music by Brian Current, Missing premieres at Vancouver Moving Theatre's Downtown Heart of the City Festival. The 10-day fest features 100 events in 50 locations. Another highlight: Summoning, an interactive sound installation addressing violence against women and featuring, among others, vocalists Tanya Tagaq and Sandy Scofield (at Hastings and Main's KW Production Studio).
(Vancouver: Oct. 25 - Nov. 5)

A family-friendly event is to showcase some of the world-leading research done by the University of Leeds.
The free Be Curious open day this Saturday will focus on how research makes a difference to the lives of people all over the world.
Among the topics are the impact of selfies, how to design a cycle-friendly city and how to generate energy from waste.
Dr Charlotte Haigh, academic lead for public engagement at the university, said: "Be Curious is about inviting people to have fun and find out more about the world-leading research happening at the university. This year we're focusing on the relevance of our research to people across the world, with events for people of all ages."
The talks will take place from 10am to 4pm at the Parkinson Building and elsewhere on campus. There will also be stalls and guided trails for all ages.
Dr Haigh added: "It's a great opportunity to explore our campus too, including the two galleries in the Parkinson Building, our public art trail and cafes."
Another attraction is the chance to practice on a new Steinway concert grand piano in the University's Clothworkers' Centenary Concert Hall. You can play for up to five minutes but need to register on the day at the School of Music.
More than 1,000 people were welcomed to campus for last year's Be Curious annual event. Dr Haigh added: "We had great comments from the public, and many of them were return visitors. People particularly enjoyed chatting to students and said that younger members of the family were inspired by the event. I hope even more people will come along this time and get 'hands on' with our work."
Be Curious is running as part of Leeds Festival of Science. See www.leeds.ac.uk/becurious for more.

"Jesus Christ cannot be separated from his teachings. Aristotle says to his disciples, "Follow my teachings." Socrates says to his disciples, "Follow my teachings." Buddha says to his disciples, "Follow my meditations." Confucius says to his disciples, "Follow my sayings." Muhammad says to his disciples, "Follow my noble pillars." Jesus says to his disciples, "Follow me." In all other religions, a follower can follow the teachings of its founder without having a relationship with that founder. Not so with Jesus Christ. The teachings of Jesus cannot be separated from Jesus himself. Jesus Christ is still alive and he embodies his teachings. It is a profound mistake, therefore, to treat Christ as simply the founder of a set of moral, ethical, or social teaching. The Lord Jesus and his teaching are one. The Medium and the Message are One. Christ is the incarnation of the Kingdom of God and the Sermon on the Mount."
I like this...the bible says the Law was given though Moses but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. Jesus' message was grace and truth, truth being that he was full of grace, inseparable from grace...the church has so often taken grace OUT of Jesus' teachings, when in fact his teachings were grace...because He is grace.

Two-in-one cash and cheque scanners help businesses stay prepared
Dual-purpose cash and cheque scanners offer retailers a variety of benefits, from more efficient management of these physical payment methods to reducing employee labor needs associated with sorting, counting and related tasks. With the holiday shopping season fast approaching, it's a good time to consider how these devices can streamline operations and make what is the busiest time of the year for many retailers a more manageable affair.
Increases in customers, sales and revenue are all common for many different retailers during the holiday season and, increasingly, the months leading up to it. Businesses that want to be as efficient as possible and reap the maximum reward of increases in foot traffic and purchasing have to be flexible in their operations and prepared to handle this influx.
Strong majority of Canadian holiday spending happens in person
E-commerce is a major consideration for retailers throughout the country and across the globe, no matter how they choose to approach the issue. It's clear that consumers appreciate a number of elements of the e-commerce experience, from making purchases remotely to a wider swath of sellers and discounts to choose from. However, there are plenty of reasons why in-person shopping at brick-and-mortar stores isn't going anywhere any time soon. Practical considerations like the ability to inspect and handle potential purchases before money is spent and the convenience of carrying the transaction from start to finish in a short amount of time are powerful. Other elements, like brand loyalty and the sensory experience of holiday shopping, fill a significant role as well.
A survey conducted by CPA Canada, the national branch of certified public accountants, found e-commerce has a solid foothold in holiday shopping. In all, one-third of respondents said they plan to make at least 25 percent of purchases online. While notable, that leaves the biggest slice of the holiday spending pie for in-person retail transactions.
Two-in-one cash and cheque scanners are exceptionally useful in a retail world where visits to stores endure as a popular shopping option. By efficiently handling incoming cash and cheques, they allow for more flexibility on the part of staff and reduce time spent dedicated to counting at the end of a shift or the business day. They also reduce the time spent on these efforts, helping to counteract the higher volume of incoming payments seen by many retailers during the holidays.

Even when parents provide healthful foods, children don't always eat well-balanced meals. Pixie-Vites provide added insurance that children are getting the essential nutrients they need to grow up healthy. Pixie-Vites contain 30 whole food extracts including blueberry, broccoli, kale, and pomegranate, supplying a spectrum of nutrients in their natural setting.
Dr. Fuhrman's newest formulation adds additional benefits to an already comprehensive children's multivitamin and mineral: the new formulation contains real folate, rather than folic acid; plus there is no added sugar – fruit and vegetable concentrates alone provide a great wild berry flavor.

Vivian Maier. Born in 1926, Vivian was of French-Hungarian heritage. She was employed as a nanny for many years but was rather reclusive and didn't have any family or friends. All through Vivian's adult life she took photos. Photos that captured American life from the 40's to the 90's. She also travelled extensively and always took her camera, recording what she saw.Vivian didn't share her photography with anyone. She died alone and penniless in 2007 and her boxes and boxes of (some undeveloped) work was put up for auction in a Chicago auction house. On that day a young historian, John Maloof, put in a bid for a box of photographs by an unknown photographer and left the auction house. He later found out he won the bid and after leaving the box in a closet for several months he decided to take a look at what he had bought...
Maloof discovered that there were more boxes out there that had been sold at auction and set about tracking them all down. He now has all but one of the boxes which amounts to hundreds of thousands of shots. Only about 10% of which have been developed so far. It's sad that Vivian had to die before we got to see the beautiful work she created. However, John Maloof is compiling a book about Vivian's life and work, which will be out in November and a film will follow next year. I find Vivian's work fascinating and I hope she knows how much joy her photography has brought to so many people.

As the hospitality industry's labor market tightens and job seekers get more selective, your candidate experience must improve in equal measure. At the same time, you can't skimp on screening quality or cost without running the risk of alienating your applicants and your clients, and no business can afford to pay a premium on every single check.
You, like no other industry, have to carefully balance candidate experience with screening quality, cost and compliance. That's not a balance you can achieve on your own. You need a screening partner that understands your pain points and can help you create a screening program that brings balance and fulfillment to all your needs. That's where we come in.
Candidate Experience
Candidate experience is truly imperative in industries with a tight labor market. Though candidate experience experts tend to focus on the recruiting process, you really need to minimize the burdens on the applicant throughout the entire hiring process. Each inefficiency within the process, from recruiting to onboarding, is just another opportunity to lose your best candidates.
By integrating with your chosen HRIS, GIS can simplify the background screening process. We can take whatever information the HRIS provides to us to initiate the background check, and ask your applicants to just (electronically!) fill in the gaps using our Applicant Entry Portal.
Turnaround Time
We know that time is of the essence. On average, the final report is delivered to you within 48 hours, with some searches ready instantly. What's more, by using tools like our Applicant Entry Portal, we get required information from the applicant much quicker, meaning that we can initiate the check earlier and get it done earlier.
Electronic Forms
Every hiring process is rife with forms that must be completed – from the authorization and disclosure for the background check to the Form I-9 for onboarding. GIS provides electronic services for all of these forms, which eases the burden on the applicant and makes them more likely to complete the paperwork.
Screening Quality
As an NAPBS-accredited background screening company, GIS has made a commitment to uphold high product and service standards. With our 99.9% accuracy rate, you can rely on us to provide the information you need to make safe and informed hiring decisions.
Hospitality clients have reported a 20-30% savings by using GIS for their background screening and drug testing program. We do this without cutting corners or hiding behind our invoices. Where other companies nickel and dime you, GIS provides a well-rounded program with no hidden charges.
It's your job to understand background screening regulations as they apply to you. It's our job to help you understand what regulations apply to you and how, and to help you fulfill those regulations. We take this responsibility seriously. Not only do we actively search for and report on a broad range of compliance issues, we issue frequent compliance alerts that help you understand how any changes impact you. Most importantly, we offer a full complement of compliance services.
We make it easy for you to fulfill all your FCRA and state requirements, offering compliant electronic Authorization & Disclosure solutions, as well as a full Adverse Action program, complete with Individualized Assessment. We further provide forms and guides to help you maintain compliance with other hiring Guidances, like the EEOC.
If you can think of a check, chances are that GIS does it. In particular, some of our most popular services for our leisure and hospitality clients are:
- Traditional criminal background checks, with electronic court interfaces covering the vast majority of the country.
- KwikScreen National Criminal Database, with more than 595 million records.
- National Sex Offender Registry covering all 50 states plus Washington, D.C., Guam, and Puerto Rico.
- 5- to 10-panel FDA-cleared drug tests with results in as little as 5 minutes.
- Motor Vehicle Records (MVRs) and ongoing driver monitoring to ensure that anyone driving a vehicle for your organization is safely able to do so.
- FCRA services, including Adverse Action and Individualized Assessment.
In addition, many GIS clients find value in:
- Tax Credit services to help you earn millions of dollars in credits (actual GIS results from actual GIS clients).
- I-9 and E-Verify services to help you remain in compliance while decreasing the paperwork burden on all of your employees.
- Health and wellness services for physicals, vaccinations and more.

-Author Unknown
So adorable and so much fun. Yes these young women have learned the value of sisterhood. Now they need to learn to quilt..I'm workin on that right now!
We were here to visit this fabulous southern mansion which is home to the women of ADPi…A sorority founded in the South, in Macon Georgia in 1851 (I think). For all the stories and quite often myths that surround Greek life on a college campus I certainly see soooo much good here. These young women work to benefit their communities and campus life. (much like the community or quilters..I really do see strong similarities) The Greeks are the most active of all the groups on campus and do some wonderful philantropic work. They entertained 180 guests this weekend with charm, grace and STYLE!!! We had a blast.
|Isn't this house fantastic? Where is Scarlett and
Rhett??? I think I should live in this house!
Also, the girls and boys get all dolled up for the football games. Young men wore shirts and ties and the girls were in all manner of cute attire…and it was hot…sheesh. For those of you keeping up the fashion trends..this is what you need to get. (no these are not my legs..dang it) I saw about a million girls in skirts and cowboy boots. I'm going to get mine today. Keep up quilters we don't need to be behind the the rest of the world!
Sewing binding in the car like crazy and I'm back to work today. Taking a little breakie to say hi and HAPPY MONDAY….

Chris, I need your help…
I'm a successful guy, and I've achieved a lot in my life. I want to find a woman to share it with but I have a problem.
You see, every time I meet a woman, I feel like she's only interested in dating me for my money.
I don't know if I'm being insecure, or just meeting the wrong women. What can I do to change this?
A former student.
A lot of people aren't going to like me saying this.
But I'm going to say it anyways.
Rich, successful guys have a hard time in dating.
They suffer from the curse of the gold digger.
The curse goes like this – as a successful man achieves more in his life, he can sometimes become more insecure in his relationships.
Don't get me wrong, successful men have a lot of advantages in the dating market (in part due to hypergamy), but their success comes at a cost. And if they don't learn how to navigate relationships properly, they can wind up getting taken advantage of, getting used, and getting cynical about women.
The problem stems from the fact that most women like two things about successful men.
First, they like the fact that successful men are usually successful because they are smart, hard working, confident, etc. These character traits show the sort of inner power that women find very attractive.
Second, they like money and nice things. (Who doesn't?).
Because of this, successful guys often fear that the women they are dating like them more for their money than for who they are. (And sometimes they are right)
The challenge for successful men is: How do you avoid "gold diggers" without filtering out the women who really like you for who you are?
Here are four rules to avoid the curse of the gold digger:
First – As a successful man, you cannot be passive in your dating life.
If you sit back and wait for women to come to you, the ones that will come to you are far more likely to be "gold diggers".
Meanwhile the women who like smart, confident men will expect to be pursued – because that's what a smart, confident man would do.
In fact, it's only when you take the initiative that your success really starts improving your dating life.
Second – Don't use your money or success as a crutch.
Money and status can make things easy for you as a single guy. You can use your connections and resources as incentives to get women to date you. But, using those things the wrong way can create all sorts of trouble in your life.
Here's a rule of thumb – before you spend money on a woman you like, ask yourself "Would I say yes to this even if I wasn't interested in the person I was doing it with?" – if the answer is yes, you're using your wealth as a crutch.
Third – Don't be ashamed of your success.
Another mistake successful men make is being shy about their success and hiding it. That can create a whole new set of problems, because now you're not being trustworthy and confident.
Fourth – Know what you want in a woman.
This goes along with not being passive, but it's very important that you actually know what you are looking for in a partner. My relationship visualization exercise can help you visualize what you are really looking for so you can go out and proactively look for it.
As always, the real solution is to act from your centre and remember – nothing works like success.

Paws Down!
To Connyland theme park, Switzerland, and Miami Seaquarium, Florida, for holding raves in proximity to the sea creatures.
In a line we all use at times, "What were they thinking," two organizations decided to hold raves in proximity to aquariums that house captive dolphins, orcas, and other marine mammals.
Isn't it enough that we capture and contain these magnificent creatures in oversized bath tubs, do we now have to have pyrotechnics, ear shattering music, and hundreds, if not thousands, of partygoers in close proximity to their unnatural homes?
According to one news report, noise levels at the Connyland theme park reached the level of pneumatic drills set on top volume. In addition, it was reported that attendees tossed all manner of debris into the animals' pools, including drugs.
It was reported that two dolphins at the Connyland theme park died most likely as a result of the 2-day rave. While no deaths have been reported of animals at Miami's Seaquarium, one has to doubt the dolphins, orcas, and other sea creatures were in a partying mood while the event was going on.
What were the owners of these parks thinking?
Take Action: Write the owners of Seaquarium and Connyland urging them to discontinue holding events that place the animals in unsafe conditions that may lead to their deaths. Of course, the strongest action any of us can take is to stay away from these theme parks where captive wild animals are made to live in oversized bath tubs all year around.

Tomorrow's game at the JJB is always a difficult one for Newcastle, and last year we gave one of our worst performances of the season in losing 1-0.
Within a couple of weeks Sam Allardyce was out at Newcastle and of course since then we've had another two manager in Kevin Keegan and right now former Wimbledon boss Joe Kinnear, who has done a sterling job so far.
Newcastle have gone 6 games without defeat, and have won their last two games, and will be looking for all 3 points at the JJB tomorrow.
Newcastle have Ameobi and Martins out injured, with long term injuries to Alan Smith, Joey Barton and Ignacio Gonzales.
We expect Mark Viduka to start for Newcastle, although Joe may elect to start Damien Duff up front with Michael Owen, and bring on Mark in the second half.
But we'd like to see Mark start the game, in an effort for him to become fully match fit becasue once he's fit he's a good player – but of course he's very rarely fully fit during the season.
We expect the team to be as follows:
Beye Coloccini Bassong Enrique,
Gutierrez Butt Guthrie N'Zogbia
Viduka Owen
Subs: Harper Cacapa Taylor Edgar Geremi Carroll Duff
The lads are in good form right now, and looking very well organized in all areas of the field, and we must be a decent chance of all 3 points on Boxing Day.
Again, a strong defensive display will be necessary and a clean sheet would be great.
Wigan are in decent form having won 3 of their last 5 league games, and Emmerson Boyce may return form his torn hamstring, and of course Geordie manager Steve Bruce will have his side fully prepared against his home town club.
Wigan has an extremely impressive record against Newcastle and have managed to beat the Magpies on every occasion at the JJB in the League, but the winning scoreline has always been 1-0, and we think it may be difficult for the Latics to hold our attack tomorrow. Also, with our defense in excellent form, they may also find it difficult to score our much improved back-line, with Given again in terrific form.
Wilson Palacios will return to the Wigan side after his one match ban kept him out of the 3-0 win over hapless Blackburn.
Last season at the end of the year, we had 26 points from our 20 games played and right now we have 22 points from 18 games. So two wins in our remaining two fixtures will put us better off than we were last year at this time, and after all the nonsense that's gone on at the club since August, that wouldn't be too bad.
It should be a decent and close game tomorrow, and we are hoping Newcastle will be able to shade it – and then we can think about Liverpool at St. James' Park on Sunday.
Comments very welcome.
14 comments so far
its a choice of playing duff to support owen or viduka to partner owen.
Viduka for me and bring duff if we need more creativity.
I dont see us getting a result with the reds (pessimistic) but yeah a draw would like a win.
Let us climb the table before new year and then we can sign decent players on january.
Sakho bid in, we can have him if PSG can get Gallas from Arsenal.

Make the snake dance or dance like the snake: That is Snake Dance. Both are awesome. There are two categories of Snake Dances. One is 'Imitative' and the other one is 'Real'.
Imitative Snake Dance is a human dance format. Dancing like a snake performed by trained ballet dancers is the essence of that format. It generates awe and wonder. Gymnast Irena Kazakova of Russia was a world famous snake dancer whose performance remains incomparable. Her swirls, twists and bends of the body on theater stages even surpassed the twisted embrace of snake-mates, standing on the tips of their tails and hooting shrieks.
Sweeping circular movement forms the gymnastic style of snake dance. Snake dances are performed in tune with rhythmic music. The dancer imitates the uncoiling, writhing and swaying of wild snakes. Apart from being an intricate dance form, it is believed that "snake dance has certain therapeutic benefits because it expresses a gamut of emotions from anger to joy that release toxins from the body." Whatever be the truth, across the world, snake dances as theatre entertainment, attract the interest and curiosity of the audiences.
A close examination reveals that Snake Dance performed by human beings has its origin in snake worship. Snake worship is one of the oldest rituals offered by faithful believers in almost all the ancient cultures. Even today, the snake worship is fairly common in India, Indonesia, Cambodia and among the nomadic tribes in Africa and Australia. The snake worship by the believers in India is unique and it forms a part of their day to day divine rituals.
There are different versions as how snake worship and snake dance has flourished in India. One view is that snakes primarily represent death, rebirth and mortality. Symbolizing death, snakes cast off their skin after certain period of growth. And then, it symbolically takes rebirth with new look and fresh skins.
Another version of snake worship is based on fear of survival. Snakes as poisonous reptiles, hiding and attacking animals and humans, were dreaded the most. Just like worship and prayers originated in human mind out of fear, snake worship also became a religious custom among the people to safeguard their lives.
There are hundreds of thousands of temples and shrines across the villages, towns and cities in India where the installed deities are snake sculptures (naga prathishta) of different kinds. The believers consider these idols as entities of omnipotent supernatural powers. The devotees express their faith and sublime devotion by offering prayers with flowers and garlands. Before the sculptures of the serpent god, they dance and crawl around, chanting sthotra.
Real Snake Dance is entirely different: Some nomadic communities from mountainous forest areas capture snakes from their hideouts in the forests and underground holes. The captured snakes are then taken in baskets made of bamboo strips. They bring the baskets, perform rituals and let the snakes free before the serpent god. The onlooker-devotees take care of the snakes to prevent them from escaping. After the rituals are over the snakes are captured, packed and taken back by the nomadic talents who are the famous Snake Charmers of India.
Theater snake dance performed by talented danseuses, is awesome for all. The format of such dance is imitation of the movement of serpents. Snake Charmers in India train the captured snakes and make them dance in tune with the music of their flutes. This is the real snake dance. The snake charmer, with flute on his mouth, moves his head in different directions while the trained snake starts dancing in line with the head-movement of the snake charmer and his flute music.
It is well-known that snakes have no ears and no auditory mechanism in its brain. Snakes cannot therefore hear any sound. How then the snake hears the flute music and dances according to the tunes? It is really a complex phenomenon. The dance of the snake purportedly in tune with the instrument music of the Snake Charmer is, in fact, an illusory perception of the viewers.
What is happening in real snake dance is the working of a conditioned reflex of certain nerve connections formed in consonance with the simultaneous excitation of the motor centre and the visual centre in the snake-brain: The temporary nerve connection is formed by repetitive movement of the snake charmer's instrument together with the movement of his hands and head simultaneously by pushing and pulling on the head of the snake to different directions. Repetition of this process for several times creates a conditioned nerve connection in the snake's brain in line with the movements of the snake charmer and his instrument. The conditioned temporary nerve connection works as a reflex and the snake then starts moving to the directions indicated by the snake charmer. And the viewers and the audience take it as if the snake was dancing in tune with the snake charmer's flute music.
That is the story of Real Snake Dancing: Whatever be the case the Snake Charmer obviously might be ignorant about the scientific principle behind the above training program. 'Real Snake Dance' can be compared with circus tents where different animals perform different kinds of gymnastics on the stage.

SEVILLE (Reuters) - France's defence minister said the export potential for EADS's EAD.PAA A400M military transporter was "huge", as the 20 billion euro ($27 billion) project started delivering aircraft to its founding nations after years of delays.
"I can't give you any figures but there is huge capacity for exports, the political and industrial winds are synchronized," France's defence minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told reporters on Monday at the sidelines of a ceremony to celebrate the first delivery of the A400M military transport plane.
The troop carrier was conceived in the 1980s to meet a looming shortfall in military transport capacity among seven European NATO nations: Belgium, Britain, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain and Turkey.
The first A400M, which competes with the Lockheed Martin (LMT.N) C-130 Hercules turboprop and the larger Boeing (BA.N) C-17 cargo jet, flew to France on August 1 after a four-year delivery delay.
Le Drian said that the export chances were boosted by the fact that the aircraft was now going into service. "It's difficult to export aircraft if they haven't been tested by the armed forces," he said.
