Celebrate Saturday
4 comments:
I've read this book more than once with students through the years, and it never loses power, from the younger reader, and now you, an adult, it is a wonderfully inspiring story. "Tough hope" is how people do make it, I agree. Good for you for celebrating it. I hope you have a much better week next week, after a fabulous Sunday!ReplyDelete
It is wonderful when a book, as story, offers a nugget of wisdom and hope, what is exactly what we need at a certain moment. Wishing that your tough week will be followed by a lighter and happier one.ReplyDelete
I love it when a book falls into our lives at just the right time. Tough hope. That's just about perfect, isn't it? I might have to pick up this book and reread it just for the inspiration. Thank you for celebrating.ReplyDelete

Dental Implants in Memorial Houston
Learn More About Dental Implants When you're suffering from tooth loss, your entire life is impacted. Not only do you lose the ability to eat and speak correctly, but your confidence begins to dwindle. Not to mention, your oral health and surrounding teeth will begin to experience complications as well. Don't let lost teeth steal your smile's vitality any longer. Repair your smile and quality of life with dental implants from Dr. Terrence O'Keefe.
A Preferred Tooth Replacement Option
Tooth implants are the preferred prosthetic option because they closely imitate your natural teeth - both in terms of function and appearance. You'll improve your oral function and confidence with permanent tooth replacement. While implants have a very high success rate, not everyone is a candidate for the procedure. Implants can only be used on patients who have adequate bone structure and healthy oral tissue to ensure the success of the procedure. Dr. O'Keefe will evaluate your oral health to determine if implants are an option for you.
Teeth replacement using an implant involves surgically inserting bio-compatible titanium posts into the jawbone to act as a tooth root. The bone naturally fuses with the implant to provide a strong foundation for the prosthetic tooth. Once you're healed from the post implantation, the prosthetic crowns are then anchored in place—giving you a permanent tooth replacement to regain your quality of life and smile.
In addition to a permanent fix for tooth loss, teeth implants offer increased comfort when compared to dentures or bridges. You don't have to worry about slipping, discomfort or messy adhesives. Not to mention, implants promote your oral health by preserving your bone and gum tissue to prevent additional tooth loss, which isn't always possible with dentures and bridges. In fact, an implant will actually improve your oral health because it will stimulate new bone growth, giving you the support you need for a beautiful smile. Plus, you won't have to have a new tooth made in the future as with dentures or bridges.
Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants do cost more than alternative options for tooth replacement, but they actually end up being more affordable in the long run because they are made to last a lifetime. The procedure to have a tooth implanted is more invasive and will require a longer treatment time compared to other options. The amount of time and visits required for the procedure varies from patient-to-patient, depending on individual needs. For example, if you need a tooth extraction or bone grafting, the process will take longer and cost more than for a patient that doesn't require any extra oral procedures.
To determine the extent of the services you'll require, we will fully evaluate your oral health to determine an appropriate course of action. We'll create the customized treatment plan you need to resolve tooth loss.
Schedule Your Dental Implant Consultation
If you're ready to enjoy a fabulous, healthy smile while taking control of your oral health, call our Houston dental office at (832) 924-5850 today to schedule a consultation with Dr. O'Keefe. We provide the innovative dental solutions you need with implant dentistry for a radiant new smile.

The Soviets are a powerful military faction led by Stalin. Their main objective for the past 12 years has been to defeat Hitler's Reich after the "Stalin calls Hitler a dumbass rumour" caused Hitler to declare war on Stalin. As of May 18, 2011 the Reich and the Soviets are no longer at war. However during the infamous 'Russian TV Boxing Match'- Russia claimed to have developed and tested their first antic weapon.

accompanying post, Munger at Kids Prefer Cheese says, "Only libertarians recognize that these really ARE essentially the same issue." My criticism is of the word recognize and its implication that anyone who disagrees is simply wrong. A more accurate characterization would be that dogmatic libertarians view these as the same because they are focused on personal liberty to the exclusion of all other considerations. The poster masks one issue behind another in a manner common in today's political pseudo-discourse. The issue placed at the forefront is stated in the second sentence, "We should not base our laws on personal dislikes." I wholeheartedly agree with this one, and I would argue that it is key in a number of contexts. However, this is not the issue (or at least not the primary one) for proponents of gun control. Rather, it is public safety.

Online education, pro and con (but mostly pro)
A recent New York Times article describes a conflict over online courses that has erupted at San Jose State University. Members of the philosophy department there wrote an open letter to Harvard professor Michael Sandel objecting to using materials from his online social justice course in their own curriculum. Speaking as someone totally devoted to quality undergraduate education, I have several criticisms of the SJSU letter.

Where'd that paper go?
Over a year ago, I wrote a paper called "Curbing the Dangers of High-Frequency Trading" and submitted it to the Economists' Voice. The final acceptance came through in March of 2012. The official link is here, and an ungated copy is here. Here is the problem: I didn't know where to find the published version, or even that it had been published, until this week.

Each month after the financials have been published, we review department spend data in detail. The goal of this analysis is to compare department budgets with actual results and examine any material discrepancies between budgeted and actual costs. These costs are reviewed at the department level, allowing us to measure progress in meeting our plan, forecast, and operating model.
Following the month-end close, the Accounting Manager distributes department income statements to the related budget owners and the e-group members. Each department is then responsible for comparing these reports, which contain actual costs, to the budget spreadsheet in Google drive. Departments should analyze their data and if necessary, discuss items of interest and take appropriate action. Any questions regarding the cost data should be sent to the Accounting Manager.

A dress is something with so much story. So much memories, so much tears and joy are imprinted in the fabric. And most of the times the dress is used four times in one year. It gets lost, forgotten in a dark corner in the closet.

I've been selling Real Estate for over 16 years now and I love it more every year. I moved to Springfield, from Southern CA, in 2007, for a better quality of life. I picked
My husband and I went to Alisa to look at a property we found online. We decided then to sell our home in order to buy the new home. Alisa (and Michelle) moved very quickly to arrange every detail to ensure our house went on the market fast, as time was of the essence. Alisa knew the market and priced our house well. We received multiple offers after being listed for only FOUR DAYS! We then used Alisa to secure a contract on our new house. I have never heard of real estate transactions going so smoothly. Alisa went above and beyond in all aspects of our home sale and purchase. She has even continued to stay in contact after closing. I highly recommend Alisa to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, motivated and all around nice person as their agent. Thank you, Alisa!
We have moved across the country several times. Each time we were less than satisfied with the realtor. However, Alisa change that; very professional from start to finish. Best of all there were no surprises. Everything unfolded as she predicated. Alisa kept us informed and made herself available - quickly responded to our concerns and needs. she worked diligently with the loan originator. Her associate filled in a couple of times and was equally proficient. These ladies are what you are looking for when buying.
Alisa priced my home according to her expertise in what the market would bear. She sold my home within three weeks. Absolutely no hassle for me as she explained every detail and took care of any questions and problems.
she had integrity and was very professional. She also helped me buy my new home. She found a home for me that she would "put her mother in" that was sound. She negotiated a very fair price for me. I have been living in it since May 2014. I am very happy and pleased with this home.

If you would like to be involved or support the upkeep and further development of this site, it would be very welcome no matter how small.
Liberal Senator, Linda Reynolds has called for women to be able to play contact sport with men. So how about that? Half-witted feminists are not the sole domain of Labor and the Greens in the Senate, even on International Women's Day!
Greens hate individual freedom and private property. They dream of a centralised unelected global government, financed by taxes on developed nations and controlled by all the tentacles of the UN.
"He's lost the plot! He's off the reservation". Who on Labor's front Bench would accuse their dear leader of such things? SKY has assured the leaker of anonymity but it's not too hard to figure it out.
I love Australia. I have always loved this country and its people since the day I arrived. This country that Australians have built is like a paradise compared to where I come from. Yet since the day I arrived, I have been screaming to anyone who would listen, not to allow the Muslims to come in here.
His social experiment has failed on every front. His personality is toxic. He has urinated on every smidgen of what the Liberal Party once stood for. And those who have supported him should be the only attendees at his funeral, and in separate caskets.
If ever you feel the need to say, "I told you so", you can bet something has gone wrong. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is preparing to defy the Treaty of Lausanne that defines borders with Greece.
I am discontentedly disconcerted at your discombobulation over the procreative amplitude within my legislative assemblage.
I do try to keep up with the political things but I guess my teacher was right when she told me I was a very confused little girl. You see, I followed Mr Barnaby's sexting thing and I felt so sorry for why all his friends were saying he was an awful man.
Come on you NATs, not one of you can stand the bloke. He stands for everything you stand against. Your heart is still with Barnaby, your reason is with Christiansen and you will only ever get one chance at redemption for all Aussies. Just do it… and you will never be electorally forgotten.
Labor and the Greens are spitting chips in Senate Estimates over the name of Barnaby Joyce's accuser being disclosed. A WA woman, Catherine Marriott, has accused him of sexual harassment. To avoid further media scrutiny Barnaby has wisely referred the complaint to the police.
Oh, the consistent crescendo of each of Turnbull's foot soldiers when told to respond to Abbott's call for a temporary halving of immigration. No deviation from the damning script by any of the front Bench as they denounced Abbott as a Barbaric Philistine of modern day economics. Actually Abbott's suggestion was quite cultured.

Segregation at Forthbank
Following on from events at our last home fixture versus East Stirlingshire, I write to clarify the situation with regards to arrangements for housing supporters in the West (Home) Stand.
For part of last season, following discussions with the Police, our Stadium Safety Officer and our stewarding company, it was agreed that we would trial housing home and visiting fans in the West Stand for games where it was considered the capacity of the Stand would comfortably accommodate everyone. The main driver for this decision was to cut down on costs.
We had planned to use the last section of seating at the Monument End to accommodate visiting fans only but with season tickets already sold for this area, it was considered inappropriate to ask fans to move mid-season.
Given this and the fact that it is not practicable to segregate toilet and refreshment facilities, the decision was taken (again following discussion with the relevant parties) to allow fans to sit where they wanted, aside from encouraging visiting fans to use turnstiles 3 & 4 and to sit in the end section as described above.
The above position was reviewed at the end of last season and whilst there had been no incidents of any major concern reported by the Stadium Safety Officer or stewards, we had received a number of complaints from home supporters that they were unhappy about the non-segregation of the seating arrangements for visiting supporters.
Taking everything into account and again in consultation with the Police, the Stadium Safety Officer and our stewarding company, it was agreed that the last section of seating at the Monument End of the West Stand would be designated for visiting supporters only. In order to make this possible, every Season Ticket holder that had a seat in this section was written to, during the close season, advising them of the new arrangement, apologising for the inconvenience and asking them to select a new seat. All supporters who renewed their season ticket complied with this request.
For the first home fixture versus Peterhead, a sign was in place at the end of the entrance tunnel directing visiting supporters to the end section and this, along with the stewards being briefed to appropriately direct fans to the designated area was considered sufficient, given the anticipated small number attending.
A further review was undertaken following the match and taking on board the recommendation of our Stadium Safety Officer it was decided that only visiting supporters would be permitted to sit in the end section. This arrangement was in place for the East Stirlingshire fixture and stewards were briefed not just to direct visiting supporters to this section but also to direct home fans away from it.
In hindsight, to visibly identify this area, it should have been cordoned off using barrier tape and I unreservedly apologise that this was not the case.
During the course of the match, stewards identified that some home supporters were occupying seats in this section and having sought guidance from the Stadium Safety Officer, they asked these fans to move to another section. Unfortunately some of those requested to do so, refused to comply. It is inappropriate to publicly detail any of the subsequent events that took place with regards to individual supporters but suffice it to say that a refusal to comply with a request from a steward, acting on instruction from the Stadium Safety Officer, is grounds in itself for the offenders to be removed from the Stadium. On the day, following consultation between myself and the Safety Officer, the decision was taken not to remove anyone from the ground and to allow the game to run its course.
A debrief meeting was held at the end of last week between the Club, the Stadium Safety Officer and a senior representative of the stewarding company and the following will be in place for all home games unless otherwise notified in advance:
• Visiting supporters will be directed to use Turnstiles 3 & 4
• Signage will be in place inside the ground to inform all fans of the designated area for visiting supporters
• Barrier tape will be in place to identify the perimeter of this area
• Stewards will be briefed to direct visiting supporters to this area and home supporters away from it
• The catering and toilet facilities at the Monument End will remain communal
• Any variation to the above for operational reasons will be communicated in advance via the Club Website and signage / barrier tape will clearly identify the designated visiting supporters area for that particular fixture
Please be aware that anyone refusing to comply with a request / instruction from the Police, the Stadium Safety Officer, a match-day steward or a Club Official to move from the "wrong" seating area will be removed from the Stadium.
Whilst I appreciate that these arrangements will not meet with universal approval, they have been put in place with the best interests of everyone in mind and I would ask everyone attending Forthbank Stadium to comply. Please note stewards are acting under the instruction of the Stadium Safety Officer who has ultimate and complete responsibility for all matters pertaining to crowd control and safety.
I repeat my apology that better communications were not in place prior to and during the East Stirlingshire game. As ever, I am happy to discuss this or any other pertinent matter – please contact the Club by telephone, e-mail or in writing to arrange.
Stuart Brown
Operations Director

20 July 2017
Two dark web marketplaces used to traffick drugs, guns and other illegal commodities have been taken permanently offline following a coordinated international operation.
The sites, known as Alphabay and Hansa, facilitated hundreds of thousands of criminal transactions a year.
The FBI-led strike against AlphaBay took place on July 4, while the Dutch police operation against Hansa was completed at 3pm today.
Illicit sales
The NCA supported the FBI operation against Alphabay, providing intelligence and specialist capabilities along with international partners such as Europol.
Both sites were hosted on the so-called dark web. Pages on the dark web are accessible only through specialist web browsers and to those with a site's specific address.
Accessing the dark web is not illegal but some criminal enterprises attempt to take advantage of the cover they believe it provides.
AlphaBay was considered one of the most significant sites on the dark web for illicit sales, wth more than 200,000 users and 40,000 vendors.
From today both Alphabay's users and visitors to Hanza will be greeted with a notice saying "This hidden site has been seized."
Permanently offline
Ian Cruxton, deputy director at the NCA, said: "Two of the most significant dark web criminal marketplaces are now permanently offline, seriously affecting the capability of several criminal networks.
"The NCA closely supported the FBI in the operation against AlphaBay, providing intelligence and specialist advice and capabilities.
"Law enforcement agencies will now begin to sift through the forensic material gathered during the strikes. The criminals who used these sites would be right to fear the outcome of those investigations.
"The darkweb may appear to offer criminals a degree of anonymity but law enforcement agencies are able to exploit that cover themselves and have a whole range of tools to go after their targets."

hvzhadsva has not received any gifts yet
Finding such a pros ph375 Guide is definitely not a basic errand. In actuality you know this I deny this peachy plan. he groove isn't staying aware of the circumstances. I found that was wonderfully itemized. That is a candidly charged subject. There is additionally a moderate option. In the event that you quit fooling around addressing a proposition yet don't have this, at that point you will likely need to put resources into that at various point. We as a whole had a decent laugh. I assume that you are currently arranged to comprehend my exceptionally motivational comments with respect to this contraption. This will be a reasonable and adjusted post alluding to it. I wasn't sure I could confide in anybody with my ph375 Guide. This is agreed. What does that need to do with the cost of beans in Boston? This is something I'll prize. They are just speculating. I would say ph375 Guide works like appeal.

Hospital Fugitives
Due to sweeping hospital budget cuts in Korea over the last decade, security at medical establishments has become almost non-existant. The cuts have left rooms bereft of cable (which means no Korean Dramas: a staple of the country). Thousands of Korean hospital fugitives are seen every year, toting their I.V. bags behind them as they wander and loiter the streets; drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes to offset the beneficial effects of the glucose-antibiotic solutions of the I.V.. Even though the hospitals no longer can afford to hire full-time security to keep patients within the hospital, they do still contract certain personnel to recover patients who have escaped from their hospital rooms. The Korean hospital bounty hunter is pretty similar to a criminal bounty hunter. A patient who has left the hospital's bounty accrues each hour that they are missing, and when it hits a tipping point, a contract is placed. At one point, I saw a hospital fugitive dancing with his IV in one hand and a bottle of Soju in the other at a club up in Seoul. Out of nowhere a heavy-set Korean man pushed through the crowd, tackled the man, and dragged him out by his feet. It was all over in a couple seconds. When I asked the bartender what had happened, he told me that the man who had been dragged out had a 3 million won bounty out for his return. I'm not sure if the situation will improve much over the next year that I am here, but as an
accurate honest adequate reporter of all things absurdly Korean, I will take as many pictures of hospital fugitives I can.
If anyone has seen any of the following hospital-fugitives, please call your local hospital and check the following bond listings:
– "Kim-chee" Kevin (400,000 won)
– Jeremy "Jindo" Jackson (350,000 won)
– Justin "Jeju" Jackson (350,000 won)
– "Hanbok" Henrietta (400,000 won)
– "Noribong" Ned (5.5 mil won) – As his name suggests he has been known to frequent singing establishments.

Light Will Come Bursting In
By: White Dove
During a period when I was surrounded by people intent on slandering me, when even some of my closest friends betrayed me, I had to face the fact that I could not please these people, no matter what I did.
I laid down the ministry that I loved so very much. I returned to Square One: Embracing the truth that I am God's child, plain and simple. He loves me just the way I am, even in all my messiness.
So I let it all go… and just became still as a baby asleep in her mama's arms. This is what I heard my Beloved whisper…
Storms will come your way, Little One, but My peace never changes. You're embraced by My Father's love and power, and even if the whole world were to reject you, I never will. Troubles will come to test your faith. Be Mine. Don't be shaken.
Stand firm. Resist evil, especialy the evil in your own mind. Step inside My mind. Know Me. I am stable and sure.
Like medicine, I take this Truth as many times a day as needed until the problem passes.
"'Who can know the LORD's thoughts? Who knows enough to teach him?' But we understand these things, for we have the mind of Christ." (1 Corinthians 2:16)
The truth is, that when darkness overtakes me, it's actually an opportunity to witness God's most brilliant moves! Every problem comes custom designed with its own provision. Sometimes all we choose to see is the dark side, so it's our opportunity to flip the coin over to see the brilliant solution!
It's a different way to think… That when God wants you to have something wonderful, powerful, and beautiful – He gives you a trial! Passing the trial enables you to handle the provision without it destroying you or others.
When darkness overtakes the godly, light will come bursting in. They are generous, compassionate, and righteous. All goes well for those who are generous, who lend freely and conduct their business fairly. Such people will not be overcome by evil circumstances. Those who are righteous will be long remembered. They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the LORD to care for them. They are confident and fearless and can face their foes triumphantly. They give generously to those in need. Their good deeds will never be forgotten. They will have influence and honor. The wicked will be infuriated when they see this. They will grind their teeth in anger; they will slink away, their hopes thwarted. — Psalm 112:4-10
I hope this love letter from Papa gives you the same hope and encouragement that it did for me, to not be afraid of the dark, but to instead be excited knowing that God's about to make His most brilliant move in your life!
Writing Prompt: When bad news arrives, what is the first thing you think? Do you need to change that thought? If so, what brilliant thought might you think? Spend a few minutes writing whatever flows from your heart through your pen!

With all my love,

Things got a little wild in Berwick on Sunday as a "rather large pig" romped around town and rocked a police cruiser, police said.
In a lighthearted Facebook post, Berwick police said the pig was running on Hubbard Road and they were trying to locate the owner.
"We're not sure if it's running away from home or trying to find home," police wrote. "This pig is too large to get in the cruiser, but did chase a bystander into the cruiser."
The pig was eventually returned home with some help from town residents and friends of the owner.
"The pig was not injured, even after rocking a cruiser," police wrote.

Mint Now Offering Help Achieving Your Goals
June 29, 2010 - Personal finance site, Mint, has just released a new section of the website labeled "Goals" designed to help users reach their financial goals. Whether it is getting out of debt, buying a new home, or saving for retirement, Mint can now help you save money for your financial goal. Simply enter the information that it asks for such as number of years until the goal must be met, how much you want to set aside each month, etc., and Mint will work with you and your accounts to get the goal accomplished.
At the moment, there are only nine preset goals you can choose from, however that will hopefully increase as Mint receives feedback from its users. The goals that are included are fairly wide-ranging and include: getting out of debt, saving for an emergency, saving for retirement, buying a home, buying a car, saving for college, taking a trip, improving your home, and a "custom goal" option.
I tried setting up a goal to "Save for an Emergency" to test out the service. I was easily able to enter in my average monthly spending, as well as how many months I wanted to plan for. I then could tell Mint when I wanted to achieve the goal by and it told me I would need to save x amount of dollars each month to be prepared for a six month emergency by a certain date. It was easy to use and I think that seeing my goals on my homepage will hopefully increase my effort for saving for them.

Its Rocking Dare-E-Disco
Remember the 80s when popular disco dance number's would be so popular that it would be heard at every nook and corner. Popular number's such as Yaad aa raha hain, I am a disco Dancer, Jimmy Jimmy etc. were a craze among the youngsters and still remain a nostalgic hit for those who have lived through that decade. Fast foward to the current Gen., one of the biggest influencers(pun not intended) and music maker in the Indian Disco genre 'Bappi Lahiri' is back in the kitchen cooking up some dhinchak music.
The fashionable bar La Patio, Mumbai saw the Music launch of movie 'It's Rocking Dard-e-Disco' . What's so Special about it? Well it features the debut of apna Bappi da in the star cast.. Which is quite a big thing(again .. not intended). 'It's a comedy film with great message' is what the man had to say about the movie. Bappi Da was too excited and enthralled the media with his song 'Pyar Karlo na'
Singers trying hand's at acting is not a new concept .In his days Kishore Da not only was an excellant singer but was quite the actor too. Let`s see if Baapi Da is another Kishore Da in making.

The recent outbreak of the Ebola virus in Africa has once again bring to fore the nagging issues of the continent's readiness to truly be in charge of her destiny. No doubt, this is one event that has altered the calculus of the continent's economics, environment and public health status. While I will not want to bore you will the details of my claims; I will condense my thoughts to the following:
1. Since 1976 there are five known strains of the virus-four virulent and one benign. All virulent strains are said to be found in Africa and the benign strain in China and the Philippines. It is on record that the U.S had its Ebola outbreak in 1989 in Virginia which was swiftly contained and the official story was that it was the benign Reston variant from monkeys imported from the Philippines.
Since then, the U.S Center for Disease Control and U.S Army Medical Research Institute of Infectious Diseases have taken lead in the study and management of a possible cataclysmic outbreak of the virus not only from natural means but even from the possibility of been weaponized by terrorist. I ask what national or regional strategies have been developed to contain the virus by our African leaders since it was first discovered almost four decades ago?
2. Many of us greeted with despair the news that the U.S has refused to allowed its experimental drugs into Africa and quick to condemn them for unjustly handling our case. Yet, we forget that by so doing we are painting the painfully true picture of the loss in confidence of African leaders to provide succor in the face of crises. By our action, we are not only willing to hang on our necks the shackles of slavery but we are also begging for the same chains on our feet as well.
Several bulletin and information about the virus is been disseminated by the Nigeria Medical Association and the Federal Ministry of Health but a cursory review on social media show that Nigerians mostly share or discuss the information updates by the U.S Embassy in Nigeria or any other foreign source. This trend is further evidence of how susceptible we have become and how easy our general psyche can be manipulated by western media. As a people, our collective leadership has failed to give us any reason to trust their claim, their demeanor and body language lacks the capacity to inspire confidence; hence, we repose our trust at the doorsteps of foreign powers.
As horrible as the situation seems, it may hold the glimmering chance to cause a reawakening of the giant within us all and demand not from western powers but from our continent's leaders a leadership that truly reflects our potentials.
3. The Continent of Africa is not lacking minds brilliant enough to develop drugs or at the least manage the Ebola virus. The experimental drugs we crave for from the U.S is developed from monoclonal antibodies (a technique some of us have been taught even during our undergraduate programs). It is interesting to note that in 2010 Geisbert (a scientist based in the U.S) used gene silencing techniques to effectively treat the virus in infected monkeys; yet to this day no standard research facility anywhere in the West African sub-region to develop drugs capable of managing the virus. The question is "what premium has our leadership placed on our safety when they make annual budgets?"
4. While many conspiracy theories abound, it is pertinent to recall that Europe and America are quick to trace the source of most virulent strains of infectious organisms to the so-called third world countries- HIV and Ebola are two examples of such assertions; it is obvious therefore that our history and our story is not been told by us. If history is said to be "not what has happened but what is said to have happened" then whoever tells the story defines the people. I wonder how many more deadly diseases are still lurking in our African forests waiting to be discovered by foreign scientists. The continent's defense strategy and doctrine should not only be against external threats of wars, religious terrorism and insurgencies but also to protect the sanctity of our pristine jungles against the possibility of been suitable laboratories for the development and testing of bio-warfare.
5. From the economic point of view, how many of us have thought of the spike in the stock value of Mapp, the Pharmaceutical Company that has the experimental drug (ZMapp) we all beg for. It is an open secret that Africa is home to the richest natural resources. Today, some Pharmaceutical companies are already making assertions of advanced drug research for the Ebola virus. One of such companies is Fujifilm Holding Corp in Japan that has advertised its Favipiravir as a possible candidate for the cure and treatment of Ebola. These claims will surely have a positive impact on the stock value of these companies. My question to the African leadership, do we have any chemical or drug company worthy to challenge these foreign companies in the area of research and related expertise?
In conclusion, the Ebola outbreak is a renewed call to urgently create a synergy of deft public health administration, environmental policy and a pragmatic political as well as military will that will invest in the lives and safety of the people in a continent most richly blessed.

Alien invasion
| The woo is out there
|Aliens did it...
|... and ran away
""If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans
|— Stephen Hawking[1]
An alien invasion, or an a act of aggression by extraterrestrials against Earth, is a common trope in science fiction. The motivation is typically conquest, as in H.G. Wells' novel War of the Worlds, or biological assimilation, as in the 1956 film Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
Over at Wikipedia, however, the term also includes any non-military encounter between humans and extraterrestrials that occurs on Earth. Fear, rather than the more appropriate responses of curiosity or wonder, dominate the discussion,[2] probably because conventional wisdom about any such encounter has been constructed from narratives of conquest and assimilation. Thus the encounter in Arthur C. Clarke's novel Childhood's End is described as an alien invasion story despite the absence of any military operations or even the presence of many aliens on Earth once they reveal themselves.
Unfortunately, in an effort to appeal to audiences unfamiliar with hard science fiction, alien invasion stories in popular television and film are often trapped in the handful (and shrinking number) of historical metaphors familiar to the general public.[3].
Variants of this trope, more typical in literary works, include being the aliens, not the humans, the curb-stomped ones in one way or in another despite their seemingly superior technology[note 1], and/or the contact with humans being a shock for them due to cultural differences and/or changing deeply their culture[note 2].
The bullshit[edit]
From time to time some cranks using as proof texts as for example those written by Nostradamus or the Book of Revelation, or simply inventing it will claim that aliens will invade us[4]. Of course the predicted date will come and go and the only thing that will have left behind is ridiculousness for said woo-meisters.

Bee Pollen Weight loss Capsules: Nature's Reply to Being overweight
Zi Xiu Tang
Lately, obesity has grown to become one of the top rated reasons of sickness and even demise. While bodyweight dilemmas could very well be avoided and managed, many individuals find it challenging to persist with the rigors of doing exercises frequently, dieting, and living healthy life.
It is just a indisputable fact that the majority of folks resort into the so-called trend meal plans and dietary supplements for speedy and easy weight reducing. In spite of this, these strategies typically are not the dependable. In actual fact, a lot of of those so-called meal plans and nutritional supplements can depart a person's wellbeing or weight state even worse than it was previously. For one particular, some diets get rid of required foodstuff groups; therefore, doing away with the use of vitamins for standard bodily features identified in these foodstuff groups. Second, it doesn't matter how reliable they're in losing weight, countless fat burners feature substances which pose a major risk into a person's in general health and fitness.
Simply because more plus much more customers have gotten conscious in the healthful great things about getting all-natural supplements, the recognition of nature-derived supplements are mounting in level of popularity. What's more, men and women with weight-loss and pounds regulation issues have found that getting purely natural supplements like Bee Pollen Weight Loss is a far better solution than using so-called chemical weight loss supplements or happening yet another fad diet.
Bee pollen capsules have been established over and over to get useful in weight loss and bodyweight regulation. In health-related scientific tests conducted around the ages, scientists have found that the nutrients in bee pollen aid during the stimulation of the person's fat burning capacity, the detoxification from the system, and also the suppression of appetite.
Bee pollen is significant in vitamins and minerals like carbohydrates and protein in addition to trace quantities of minerals and vitamins. In addition, bee pollen has 10 kinds of amino acids- eight of that are very important to your shape. Every one of these help in fat burning and weight regulation coupled with total well being.
High high-quality Bee pollen weight loss capsules are in most cases safe when not taken for too extended. Yet, like all nutritional supplements, precaution still has to be exercised when taking bee pollen. Even though it is just a dependable and all-natural approach to shed and manage a person's fat, it should not be taken if someone has an allergy to pollen. Anaphylaxis, shortness of breath, inflammation, and hives are merely some of the reactions an allergic man or woman could have, and based on a person's sensitivity, these reactions can even prove fatal. Additionally, as a consequence of level of quality deal with concerns, bee pollen shouldn't be highly recommended as the supplement for a pregnant a lot of women or maybe a breastfeeding mother while it may endanger her well-being or perhaps her kid's.
Bee pollen can not be seen in almost any food group. Despite the fact that this is a by-product of bees, bee pollen will not be observed in honeycomb, honey, royal jelly, and bee venom. Previous to it turns into bee pollen, it's just the pollen uncovered in flowers. Having said that, when bees gather and make the pollen foods then it turns into the bee pollen in capsules.
Seeing that 2004, Zi Xiu Tang Bee Pollen may be doing huge high quality dietary supplements comprised of bee pollen. Furthermore, utilizing ancient Chinese medication collectively with cutting-edge technological innovation, bee pollen capsules from http://www.zixiutangbeepollencapsule.com/ are guaranteed to be of the purest type and best superior quality with the lowest cost.

Columbus Day weekend 2010 exhibit opening … watch for updates
And so, after shooting a body of work for the Historic Huguenot Street Site, I find myself planning an exhibition of that work to hang in one of their exhibition places. I will sell the work and donate a percentage to the site. They are a 501C non-profit and, as you may imagine, are not receiving much in the way of government support. Since the site represents a long (4 centuries) and influential period in the history of our country, it deserves all the support it can get. I trust that I will be able to get broad PR coverage in that regard, so will increase awareness of my work on many counts.
Win win for everyone all around: me; the site; the public.

An inexpensive printed sensor that can monitor a tyre's tread wear in real-time has been invented by electrical engineers at Duke University in the US.
If adopted, the device will increase safety, improve vehicle performance and reduce fuel consumption. The group hopes that the tyre wear sensor will be the first of many that could disrupt the US$2 billion tyre and wheel control sensor market.
In collaboration with Fetch Automotive Design Group, the Duke researchers have demonstrated a design using metallic carbon nanotubes (tiny cylinders of carbon atoms just one-billionth of a metre in diameter) that can track millimetre-scale changes in tread depth with 99% accuracy.
With two patents pending, the researchers are in the process of establishing industry collaborations to bring the technology to a tire near you.
"With all of the technology and sensors that are in today's cars, it's kind of crazy to think that there's almost no data being gathered from the only part of the vehicle that is actually touching the road," said Aaron Franklin, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at Duke. "Our tyre tread sensor is the perfect marriage between high-end technology and a simple solution."
In a paper published June 9 in IEEE Sensors Journal, Franklin and his colleagues flesh out their sensor design.
The technology relies on the well-understood mechanics of how electric fields interact with metallic conductors. The core of the sensor is formed by placing two small, electrically conductive electrodes very close to each other. By applying an oscillating electrical voltage to one and grounding the other, an electric field forms between the electrodes.
While most of this electric field passes directly between the two electrodes, some of the field arcs between them. When a material is placed on top of the electrodes, it interferes with this so-called "fringing field." By measuring this interference through the electrical response of the grounded electrode, it is possible to determine the thickness of the material covering the sensor.
While there is a limit to how thick a material this setup can detect, it is more than enough to encompass the several millimeters of tread found in today's tyres. And with evidence of sub-millimetre resolution, the technology could easily tell drivers when it's time to buy a new set of tyres or give information about uneven and often dangerous tyre wear by connecting many sensors in a grid to cover the width of the tyre.
Tests also proved that the metal mesh embedded within tyres does not disrupt the operation of the new sensors.
While the sensor could be made from a variety of materials and methods, the paper explains how the researchers optimised performance by exploring different variables from sensor size and structure to substrate and ink materials. The best results were obtained by printing electrodes made of metallic carbon nanotubes on a flexible polyimide film. Besides providing the best results, the metallic carbon nanotubes are durable enough to survive the harsh environment inside a tire.
The sensors can be printed on most anything using an aerosol jet printer — even on the inside of the tyres themselves. And, while it is not yet certain that direct printing will be the best manufacturing approach, whatever approach is ultimately used, Franklin said the sensors should cost far less than a penny apiece once they're being made in quantity.
Franklin's group also wants to explore other automotive applications for the printed sensors, such as keeping tabs on the thickness of brake pads or the air pressure within tyres. This is consistent with a key trend in the automotive sector toward using embedded nanosensors.
Other tyre tracking products have recently hit the market. For example, tyre company Pirelli recently unveiled a system to electronically track each tyre — when it was installed, how many miles it has gone, when it was last serviced, etc. — and use an algorithm to estimate its wear and tear. While not the same thing as actively, physically measuring tyre tread, it shows that the market is there for this type of information.
But the technology isn't limited to cars. Franklin said the setup could be used with just about anything that's not metallic or too thick. "Right now we're focusing on tires, but really anything you'd rather not have to cut apart to determine its thickness could be monitored by this technology in real time," Franklin added.

Resolute half-centuries by Ben Stokes and Jonny Bairstow led England to a four-wicket victory against Pakistan and a 4-0 lead in the five-match one-day international series on Thursday.
Stokes stroked a nearly run-a-ball 69 and Bairstow, included at the last minute in place of the injured Jos Buttler, made 61 as England chased down Pakistan's 247-8 with two overs to spare.
Moeen Ali, 45 not out, hit a winning six off Pakistan captain Azhar Ali as England posted 252-6 at Headingley.
Pakistan's top order struggled against spinners Adil Rashid, who took 3-47, and Moeen, 2-39, before captain Azhar Ali's 80 and Imad Wasim's quickfire late unbeaten 57 off 41 balls gave the visitors a competitive total.
"We did a fantastic job with the ball, a special mention for the spinners and the guys who came in, David Willey and Chris Jordan," England captain Eoin Morgan said.
"Pakistan made early inroads but Stokes, Moeen, and Jonny made match-winning contributions. Jonny was outstanding but he's finding it hard to get into a winning side, which is a good problem for us."
Bairstow and Stokes combined in a 103-run stand for the fifth wicket after Mohammad Irfan snared both openers and the dismissals of Joe Root (30) and Morgan (11) left their team struggling at 72-4 in the 15th over.
Earlier, after winning the toss and opting to bat, Pakistan struggled to pace its innings around captain Azhar's half-century against some disciplined England bowling.
"It was a bit more of a competitive game but again we were a few runs short," Azhar said. "Irfan bowled well on his comeback but unfortunately his calf was cramping up ... and we couldn't break partnerships in that middle period."
Stokes took two well-judged catches to send both opening batsmen Sami Aslam (24) and Sharjeel Khan (16) packing before spinners Moeen, who didn't concede a boundary off his 10 overs, and Rashid struck at regular intervals.
Azhar tried to accelerate but holed out to mid off while attempting to clear Rashid over his head, and Moeen had Mohammad Nawaz (13) stumped in his last over to make Pakistan struggle at 180-7.
However, Wasim took charge and hit seven fours and a six in his unbeaten half-century and lifted the total by contributing 56 runs off 48 balls for the eighth wicket with Hasan Ali.
The inclusion of Irfan, who flew to England last week in place of the injured Mohammad Hafeez, made an early impact on England's top order, which achieved a world-record 444-3 in the third ODI at Trent Bridge on Tuesday.
Alex Hales, who made England's highest individual ODI score of 171 on Tuesday, got a thick edge off Irfan and was out for 8. Root, who scored five successive ODI half-centuries, looked good until he top-edged Hasan to Irfan at fine leg.
Pakistan missed a good but hard chance when Stokes was dropped on 34.
The last match of the series will be at Cardiff on Sunday.

Cracks in stained glass windows are sometimes difficult to repair without professional conservation procedures; however, for a stained glass window installed in a window frame and possessing only minor cracking, it is possible to repair the crack, at least temporarily, without dismantling the window. Using an epoxy commonly used by historical building restoration companies, the crack can be sufficiently repaired. According to the Building Conservation Directory, it is important to keep in mind that the epoxy used to repair the crack will break down in the sunlight over a long period of time.
Hxtal NYL-1 epoxy, or another UV light-resistant glass restoration epoxy
2 glass medicine droppers
Glass mixing container
Glass mixing rod
Self-adhesive forehead thermometer strip
Hair dryer
Toothpick or orange stick
Cotton rag
Razor blade
- 1Mix the two parts, part A and part B, of the liquid epoxy by using glass droppers to add one part B to three parts A in a glass mixing container. Use a glass mixing rod to stir the two parts together. According to Talas, Hxtal NYL-1 is the only epoxy that won't discolor when exposed to UV light.
- 2Stick a self-adhesive forehead thermometer strip onto the glass window near the crack so you can see the temperature of the glass.
- 3Hold a hair dryer, set on a low heat setting, about 2 feet from the window glass. Heat the crack and the surrounding area to about 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Don't heat the glass quickly or let it get to a hotter temperature than 120 F. Gradually warm the glass.
- 4Drop the epoxy into the crack using a glass dropper. If your window can be removed or can open at a tilt, this will simplify your repair, as you can drop the epoxy directly into the crack. If your window is installed upright, push the dropper as close to the crack on the surface of the glass as possible. Hold a toothpick or orange stick, a stick with tapered ends, beneath the crack and as you drop the epoxy, guide the adhesive into the crack with the toothpick or stick. Talas reports that the epoxy will soak into the crack very fast and will make finer cracks completely disappear.
- 5Wipe away excess epoxy with a rag. Allow the repaired stained glass to sit undisturbed for at least 1 week. According to Talas, at a temperature of 75 degrees Fahrenheit the epoxy will reach about 90 percent of its bonding strength.
- 6Scrape any excess dried epoxy from the glass with a razor blade after 12 hours have passed. Do not use any sort of cleaning product. After 24 hours, the epoxy can't be removed easily.
- 1
