The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the non-profit responsible for the Internet's Domain Name System management worldwide, has been working on supporting domain names in numerous languages spoken in India, including the 22 scheduled languages of the country.
What is it for
The move aims to help people with no knowledge of English to go online and access websites with domain names completely in their regional language. Which means, one will now be able enter the domain in Hindi to get Hindi content, instead of the current practice of typing a domain name in English for the purpose.
But wait. Isn't searching content in regional languages already possible in Google and on other search engines? ICANN says the current effort is focused on enabling the domain names in regional languages, which in turn would enable the system to publish local language content being searched.
Work reportedly has already started for nine Indian scripts — Bengali, Devanagari, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil and Telugu. These scripts are expected to cover many different local languages
The Neo-Brahmi Generation Panel, as it is called, consists of more than 60 technical experts and linguists from India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Singapore.
The panel has started consulatation to enable registartion of website name extension, technically called top level domain (TLD), like .com, .net, .in, in the Indian scripts. Presently, website name with extension .bharat can be booked only in Devanagari cript which has limited letters that are identified by internet servers.

Bed & Breakfast & Dinner & Music at Kirkit Pension, Avanos, Turkey
The owners of Kirkit Pension have been in the travel business for over 20 years. Kirkit Voyage tailors tours or trips to a person's desires. Want a hiking guide? They can do it. For us, they arranged a rental car, signed us up on a balloon ride, and for a day tour of the underground city and other local sites. They are smart to vertically integrate: they get the tourists in on tours or other services, offer them a place to stay, try to sell them rugs in the store in town, sell them food and drinks, and will even do laundry in house instead of sending out the work. We had a chance to talk with two of the owners Yasim and Osman. Both are very accommodating in at least three languages: French, Turkish, and English.
During and after dinners, Kirkit Pension has classical Turkish musicians play, and the cook tries to get people to dance. Yasim explained that the musicians play as long as people stay around. The first night, a top drummer in the country was staying at the Pension, and he jammed with the regular trio. You could tell that the pro from Instanbul raised the level of performance for the group, which was quite good without him, as in the following video:
Here's a few seconds of the drummer:

Being a power chair user means that accessibility is something that I'm thinking about all the time, wondering if I can enter a building or get on public transport for example. However, accessibility runs so much deeper than just ramps and hardly anyone thinks about how things like the internet can be made more accessible.
When people think of disabled people they most often think of wheelchair users but there are plenty of other disabled people out there with a very wide range of access needs that must be met. These aren't optional access needs either, to some it may seem like extra or special treatment but it's to allow people to access things the same as abled people do. Hopefully the infographic below will teach you a little about a wide range of access needs that are rarely talked about and even more rarely put in place. We can all do better to make the internet more accessible and educating ourselves about how we can do better is the first step to improvement. Even just adding a description of the photo you're posting on Twitter is a step forward.

Afghanistan's development has been hampered through years of insecurity. It is extremely exposed to hydrometeorological hazards, which claimed the lives of nearly 15,000 from 1980 to 2015. Of these, 4,615 were due to flash floods and floods, according to the International Disaster Database Centre for research on the Epidemiology of Disasters (CRED), which have cost the country an estimated USD 396 million in economic losses. Associated landslides and avalanches are also a major problem.
To reduce the adverse effects of hydrometeorological hazards on vulnerable communities, WMO, the U.S. Agency for International Development/Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (USAID/OFDA) and Turkish State Meteorological Service (TSMS) have established a partnership to enhance the capacity of the Afghanistan Meteorological Department (AMD) to provide timely and accurate severe weather forecast and warnings, including flash floods.

by Desmond Menz posted in Marketing Methods
You have your product or service, so what next? You need to tell the world all about it. MARKET IT!
Whether we like it or not, marketing is inextricably a part of our everyday lives. Every product or service we buy or consume is marketed in some way or another.
Your customers are out there, you know who they are, and all that's needed is to find where they are. You also know that what you have is exactly what they want, because you have solutions to their problems.
How do you get them to visit your website or blog? You need to use some proven target marketing strategies.
Traffic means nothing if it's not targeted, so the objective is to find a community of buyers in your niche that want your product or service. To get some targeted traffic to your site, find this group (your market) and invite them to visit.
The following methods are some of the best target marketing strategies to ensure that you are getting the right people over to your site.
Target Marketing Strategy # 1: Article Marketing
This is perhaps the easiest way to start getting visitors to your site. Many people who read your article would be interested in your subject, and so those who click your link in your signature file (or resource box) are the ones that have taken action.
Ah ha ... what's a resource box? It's your identifier and a link to your website placed at the end of your article. It includes a benefit-laden ad, a bit of "bait", that entices people to click through to your site.
There will be thousands of people who could read your articles in the years to come, so those who took a step towards finding out more about your niche are those you want to have at your site. You will have then narrowed down the field somewhat.
Article marketing has its place for finding highly targeted traffic in any niche. It is worth the time and effort to get some articles out there, even if you write just one per week. It will pay off.
ACTION STEP : Go to the following article directories to start with.
Target Marketing Strategy # 2: Forum Marketing
Forums are where like-minded people congregate and this is where some of your potential customers hang out. Seek out forums in your niche by doing the following using Google or your usual search engine and enter ... "(your niche keyword) forum".
For example, "backyard gardening forum" if your niche is gardening.
You could substitute "forum" with "discussion".
Having found a forum or two, be helpful and post answers to peoples' problems thoughtfully. Avoid a blatant sales pitch.You'll definitely get people to your site once you have a reputation for integrity and value.
Not all members in forums are buyers, they are generally looking for specific answers. But many will be and so if you target them you'll have a group already qualified for your niche.
Remember to place your signature link at the end of your post. Make it about your reader and not about you.
Target Marketing Strategy # 3: Facebook
Facebook has thousands of different groups already set up in different topics. You can join a group, or more if there are more available, and let the group participants see that you are an expert in the field. Take this opportunity to let people know more about you and become real to them.
You will start to get friend requests this way, and others will go to your Facebook page to find out more about you. Your landing page on Facebook should direct them over to your site.

And then there were three… This pair of sweethearts playing with their little one on Onset Beach was so perfectly captured by Cape Cod-based wedding photographer Heidi Vail.Her photos are always light, airy and heart felt, but the obvious joy of her subjects here, coupled with the soft, beachy tones and subtle Cape Cod flair (from that little guy's monogrammed onesie to the dad's anchor printed button down) really sends this shoot out of the park. Besides, we are powerless before such a perfect, toothy smile. Be still my heart!

text: ORIGINAL_ARTICLE Exploring Language Learners' Cognitive Processes in On-line ESP Courses via Think-aloud Protocol Analysis The present study aims to investigate language learners' cognitive processes in on-line ESP courses. Three modes of inquiry are used: think-aloud protocol analysis, screen capture analysis, and correlation analysis. The theoretical foundations for the evaluation of the cognitive aspect of Ferdowsi Univeristy of Mashhad E-learning System are drawn from cognitive load theory, cognitive apprenticeship theory and human-computer interactivity theory. 15 users were interviewed while their performance on the screen was recorded electronically. The results of qualitative and quantitative analyses show that design features have a meaningful effect on the users' performance in four phases of cognitive interaction with e-learning systems. The educational implications of the findings for software developers are discussed. http://elt.tabrizu.ac.ir/article_599_1ee0746136ec3ba6661c9b5e63809631.pdf 2012-11-21T11:23:20 2019-02-16T11:23:20 1 32 E-learning Cognitive Processes Think-aloud Cognitive apprenticeship Instructional design Behzad Ghonsooly true 1 Associate professor, Ferdowsi university of Mashhad Associate professor, Ferdowsi university of Mashhad Associate professor, Ferdowsi university of Mashhad LEAD_AUTHOR Mohammad Ali Shams true 2 ph.d in TEFL, Ferdowsi university of Mashhad ph.d in TEFL, Ferdowsi university of Mashhad ph.d in TEFL, Ferdowsi university of Mashhad AUTHOR Albert, D., & Mori, T.

Sleep recharges you in preparation
for the day that will come. However, if you experience sleep disorder, this may
cause serious medical problems, at worse death. Why would a simple snoring or
sleep disorders cause death? The reason behind this is that serious sleep
disorders such as sleep apnea may cause the sufferer to slowly react to
situations and lose concentration. Driving while sleep deprived can possibly
lead to fatal accidents that will endanger the life of the sufferer and even
other people on the road. Almost 60% of fatal road accidents are due to sleepy
drivers. Understanding sleep disorders will make a difference in avoiding these
fatal accidents, as well as enabling you to live your life without experiencing
abnormal amounts of fatigue.
What are common sleep disorders?
- Snoring. This condition
disrupts the sleep of the sufferer and his/her bed partner as well.
- Insomnia. If insomnia
attack lasts longer than three days, it may affect the normal functioning of
the sufferer.
- Sleep apnea. This is the
more severe snoring problem that involves stoppage of breathing that may last
from 3 seconds to 10 minutes depending on the severity of the problem.
What are the symptoms of sleep
- Irritability is one of the
more obvious symptoms of sleep disorders. This is because if you fail to sleep
enough, your normal behavioral balance will then be affected; you will be
easily upset and thus may cause problems with anyone you encounter. At worst,
your first victim will be members of your family, affecting your relationship,
or your colleagues at work, which may affect your performance at work.
- Fatigue and daytime
sleepiness is another major symptom of sleep disorder. Your regular
activities are affected and you end up unhappy about your general health and
- Slow reaction and concentration
whether on the job or on the road, may cause problems such as loss of job and
accidents on the road.
Natural Remedies for Sleep Disorders
Melatonin is a hormone secreted by
the pineal gland. Melatonin is the hormone that tells the body to fall asleep.
This is the most common sleeping pill substance. Herbal sleep medicines may also be helpful
in normalizing the sleep pattern of many sleep disorder patients such as:
Natural remedies for sleep disorders
may also come from lifestyle changes that may help induce sleep. The following
may be helpful:
Natural remedies for sleep disorders
may help alleviate your problem, however, if the problem persists, you will
need to see a doctor. Your doctor will be able to help you manage your sleep
disorder in a manner by which you may combine the natural remedies for sleep
disorders with sleep disorder medicines. Fatal accidents from slow reaction and
daytime sleepiness may then be avoided ensuring your safety on the road and
keeping job security intact.

Principal Investigator: Michael J Caplan
Abstract: DESCRIPTION, OVERALL (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this Program Project is to understand the mechanisms underlying renal fluid and electrolyte homeostasis and renal epithelial function in health and the processes that modulate these mechanisms in disease. A broad spectrum of techniques will be used to address a continuum of problems ranging from the molecular characterization of individual transport-related proteins to the contribution of these proteins to integrated renal function at the level of the intact tubule, the organ, and the whole animal. Our strategy to pursue these themes successfully will include close collaboration on interrelated research projects;sharing of expertise, concepts and techniques by Directors of the five individual Projects and the four research Cores;joint use of the research core facilities and single administrative core. The research projects comprise a broad range of experimental preparations including ion/solute transport proteins, transport regulatory proteins, transfected mammalian cells in tissue culture, isolated cell membrane vesicles, Xenopus oocyte expression system, isolated kidney cells and tubules, and whole kidney in vivo. We shall use a wide range of methods including molecular cloning and mutagenesis, functional cDNA expression, generation and use of transgenic mice, immune-cytochemistry, phosphopeptide enrichment coupled to mass spectral identification of phosphorylation sites, confocal microscopy, fluorometric assays of cell ion activities, whole cell clamp and patch- and giant patch-clamp techniques, in vivo and in vitro perfusion of defined tubule segments, and clearance studies. Each of the projects and cores is concerned with the central themes of the Program: to provide important new insights into individual transport proteins that play a role in renal electrolyte homeostasis, to elucidate the regulation of these transport-related proteins, to elucidate the cellular pathways involved in epithelial polarity that is an absolute prerequisite for vectorial solute and fluid transport, and to assess the relative contributions of these proteins to tubule and organ function under conditions of normal and deranged electrolyte and energy metabolism. Our strategy to pursue these themes successfully will include close collaboration on interrelated research projects;sharing of expertise, concepts and techniques by Program investigators;and joint use of core facilities.

STONY BROOK, N.Y. (AP) Vad Lee threw for 314 yards and three touchdowns to lead James Madison to its fifth straight win, a 27-24 come-from-behind victory over Stony Brook on Saturday.
Stony Brook was leading 24-13 at the break, but the Dukes (7-3, 4-2 Colonial Athletic Association) held the Seawolves scoreless in the second half.
Lee, who became the single-season school leader in passing touchdowns with 24, passed to Daniel Brown early in the third to pull to 24-20. With 13:27 remaining in the fourth quarter, Lee hit Brandon Ravenel in stride for a 76-yard scoring strike and the lead.
Stony Brook (4-6, 3-3) moved to JMU's 37 with 51 seconds remaining when Brandon Lee and Sage Harold sacked Conor Bednarski and forced a fumble. Alex Mosley recovered the fumble to secure the win.
Bednarski threw for 260 yards with two touchdowns and Marcus Coker rushed for 145 yards for the Seawolves.

Rethinking Leadership Models: Perspectives of an Associate Superintendent in a Predominately Black Subdistrict.
Ewell, Yvonne A.
Women, especially black women, may be the primary "change agents" in institutions in the 1980s. Women in education should distinguish between women's equity and the need to reform educational institutions to equip them to serve urban, ethnically diverse populations. The crisis in American society and the inappropriateness of its educational, religious, and political institutions indicate the need to change the institutions and, in education, the need to purge such rationalizations for low achievement as low intelligence quotients (I.Q.) or low social class. Given education's need for leadership, as well as the reduction in the number of women administrators, women administrators in education need to have above-average sensibility (that is, perception of surrounding conditions) and need to see the systemic nature of education's problems. For 5 years the author's personal responsibility has been running the East Oak Cliff Subdistrict of the Dallas (Texas) Independent School District. The subdistrict has experienced improvement in achievement, discipline, and parent and community relations, and has used the assumptions that black and poor children can learn in a culturally pluralist, success-oriented instruction model. The subdistrict's programs are based on emphases involving school climate, skills mastery, and community outreach. (RW)

A commitment like this is something most people wouldn't take on, let alone jump into without much deliberation.
I am not most people.
I've enjoyed college hockey for a number of years, but hadn't kept a terribly close eye on the post-realignment scene. Particularly, the WCHA. That all changed with a trip to Lake Superior State. I'd been curious for quite some time about the town and the hockey program, and on a long weekend decided to experience it firsthand.
I got sucked in.
The passion of the fans, the Lakers team as well as their opponent that night - Minnesota State - had me not only looking forward to Lake State's next game, but also curious about what else I'd find in the WCHA.
I began watching WCHA.tv, first just for Lakers games and maybe an occasional nightcap from one of the Alaska schools, then slowly I found myself following more and more matchups. This is a league full of likable teams and schools, each with their own tradition and history, and I had to experience as much of it as possible. The only way to do that - go there.
That's how my plan was hatched last spring, and as soon as the composite schedule was released I determined which trips were possible for each weekend of the season.
The Minnesota State fans are a festive bunch, with the concourses buzzing and nearly everyone in purple & gold. They celebrate each goal with the "OLÉ, OLÉ, OLÉ" chant best known from soccer matches, and the facility is top notch. The team's banners hang from the exposed rafters and ductwork, with royal purple seats throughout and a massive video board hovering over center ice.
First intermission was spent with Don Westphal, television play-by-play voice of Minnesota State, who is just as kind off-air as on. We discussed the WCHA and my trip on-air, while also touching on the first-period highlights.
A Michigan Tech goal tied it up and it seemed as though overtime was inevitable when a late Minnesota State goal brought the arena back to life with a horn blast and another round of " OLÉ, OLÉ, OLÉ." This is a crew that likes to party, and their team on the ice was giving them a good reason to celebrate. One more insurance goal in the waning moments of the game sealed the victory for Minnesota State, and the crowd applauded and headed for the exits.
I put a few hours behind me on the road Friday night after the game, knowing that an early snow was at least a possible factor in my travel to Bemidji. By late afternoon, I'd arrived in the hometown of Paul Bunyan, Babe the Blue Ox, and the WCHA's Bemidji State Beavers.
Bemidji State joined the conference in 2010 after a storied run in College Hockey America, a conference plagued by membership turnover that ended up eliminating men's play entirely as the Beavers moved into the WCHA. Their switch in conferences coincided with the team's move to the Sanford Center, a 4,400-seat arena that provides an experience on-par with much larger venues.
The concourses of Sanford Center have colorful tile floors, wide walkways and high, arched ceilings. In this regard it's very much comparable to arenas you'd find in much larger cities. The team shop, The Beaver Dam, is right off the main walkway, and right next to it is the case with the league's crown jewel.
Bemidji State won the MacNaughton Cup last year. That's the namesake of my #ChasingMacNaughton adventure as I trek through the league, observing who is going to bring home one of the most historic trophies in collegiate sports. As the defending champion, Bemidji State has the three-foot-tall trophy on display in a case not far from the main entrance. She's beautiful, and photos really don't do her justice.
As play began the crowd got, frankly, quiet. That said, it wasn't a bad thing – far from it, in fact. This was a group that was completely zoned-in on what was happening on the ice, and everything else was going to have to wait. As a fan sitting next to me at my first Lake Superior State game once said, "When people holler, that's because they don't understand the game." I was reminded of that as I watched this fan base totally focused on, and enraptured by, the game.
Intermission conversations I overheard on the concourse were almost exclusively about the scoreless first period; missed opportunities, anticipated adjustments, and the like. This is a knowledgeable fan base that not only knows the game, but has a commanding knowledge of the student-athletes playing it, as well.
The scoreless play continued until late in the second period, when Bemidji State opened the scoring at 18:32. The goal horn roared, and the fans jumped up and clapped along as the band played the fight song.
"B-E-M-I-D-J-I! Bemidji! Bemidji! Goooooooooo BEAVERS!!!", they yelled in unison. Then, almost as quickly as the moment came, it vanished. As the puck dropped at center ice, the crowd sat down and resumed watching with very little noise.
Saturday night saw me stopping in Fargo, North Dakota, with about a 9-hour drive ahead of me the following day to get back to my home in suburban Kansas City. It was a picture-perfect start to a season-long quest to experience the places, people, and play of the WCHA. I couldn't be prouder of the programs these schools have built, their commitment to education and quality play, and the people at the WCHA office whose efforts to nourish and grow the game never end.
Two down, eight to go.

Minimizing congestion of layouts for ATM networks with faulty links
We consider the problem of constructing virtual path layouts for an ATM network consisting of a complete networkKn of n processors in which a certain number of links may fail. Our main goal is to construct layouts which tolerate any configuration of up to f layouts and have a least possible congestion. First, we study the minimal congestion of 1- hop f-tolerant layouts in Kn. For any positive integer f we give upper and lower bounds on this minimal congestion and construct f-tolerant layouts with congestion corresponding to the upper bounds. Our results are based on a precise analysis of the diameter of the network Kn[F] which results from Kn by deleting links from a set F of bounded size. Next we study the minimal congestion of h-hop f-tolerant layouts in Kn, for larger values of the number h of hops. We give upper and lower bounds on the order of magnitude of this congestion, based on results for 1-hop layouts. Finally, we consider a random, rather than worst case, fault distribution. Links fail independently with constant probability p < 1. Our goal now is to construct layouts with low congestion that tolerate the existing faults with high probability. For any p < 1, we show such layouts in Kn, with congestion O(log n).

"Curse Cabin Confession," by Sarah Diemer
When Robin invites her girlfriend, Malinda, up to her family cabin for the weekend, it's not just for a romantic time. Robin has a confession to make: she's not exactly human.

"Curse Cabin Confession"
by Sarah Diemer
"So, you're bringing me up to the cabin to chop me up into little bits and make pies out of my liver, right?"
It was a joke. Why wouldn't it be a joke? I was trying to make her smile, but she's been so uptight, ever since her parents dropped us off, her freckled nose going white as cream as she stares at me with those big brown eyes.
"Robin, seriously," I tell her when she pales even further, a feat I thought impossible. "Are you sick or something? You're shaking."
"Not sick," she tells me resolutely, yanking my hands out of hers. I run my fingers through my hair, frown at her. A lot. She ignores it, wiggles her shoulders so her backpack shifts. "I'm just…nervous…" she tells me, which, you know, I could never have determined! "This is the first time we're sleeping over…together…alone."
"Right," I say, hands on hips, my bullshit detector pinging. "Because the times we've done it in the locker room…"
"Doesn't count."
"The library rest room…"
"The church basement?"
She gives me a withering look, mouth sideways. "It's not about the sex, okay?"
"Because it's not like you're a stranger to…"
"Mal," she says, stopping on the trail. She rubs at her eyes with both hands, and when she looks away, the blood drains out of my face.
She's crying.
"Robin…" I'm suddenly afraid. I reach out, take her hands, which she lets me, this time. "Did you take me out to your family's cabin…" I can't swallow around the lump in my throat, but I do it anyway. "Are you breaking up with me? Is that why?"
"What?" She turns and looks at me, and in a heartbeat has me gathered in her arms, rocking me back and forth. "God, baby, no. God. Just…no."
"Then what's the matter?" I ask her, keeping my voice low and level, the words echoing among the silent pines. She sighs, clasping her hands around the small of my back, pressing her nose against my shoulder.
"I've got to tell you at the cabin." She says, and then she's stepping away, rubbing at her eyes again. "God, I should have just told you from the start. I've been so freaking stupid, I just didn't think…I mean…"
"Okay, this is super weird, and you're kind of terrifying me. Just so you know," I tell her, and we continue walking down the path. "How far is this cabin? And why do you have to tell me there? Is it something terrible? Tell me you're not dying. Or that, God, I don't know…you're related to…"
"No, nothing like that," she says quickly, hitching the backpack straps up higher, moving faster, legs blurring in the almost dark. "I mean, I've completely psyched myself out for this, you know? I've dreaded telling you…ever since we got together. I just know that when you find out, you're going to…" She gulps down air, won't look at me. "You're going to be the one to break up with me."
I stop in my tracks. "Did you sleep with Jenna?"
She stops, too, face hard to see in the twilight, now. Especially since she won't look at me. "No. Can we just get to the cabin?"
"Did you let Jenna bite you?"
"God, no."
"I…don't know how I feel about vampires, yet. But we could work through this if you were changing," I tell her, because when she said it, her voice shook.
She doesn't answer.
"I mean…I've done a little reading. They're doing a lot of campaigning now for equal rights, and…"
"Let's just get to the cabin," she whispers, her voice strained.
Yup. She's a vampire.
As we walk along in the dark, a little thrill runs through me. I mean, it's not like I haven't watched the shows. I'm not immune to the oozing sex that's pumped out of the TV in relation to them. I know it's all their PR, it's not really like that, but yeah, I mean it wouldn't be terrible to have a vampire for a girlfriend. I kind of wish she'd talked to me about it before she decided, but maybe she'd already decided before I came into the picture. We've been dating a year, and a year is a long time, but we've never talked about vampires, which is kind of weird, now that I think about it. But I need to be supportive. It's important.
And then we're there. It looms up out of the darkness pretty quickly, and Robin's clicked on the lantern. It looks like a camping cabin, not much better than the ones I used to stay in with my family when I was little. When Robin dusts off the lock, unlocks it, the door creaks open, extra eerie because it rained earlier today, and there's a fine fog everywhere, eating up the lantern light.
We go inside, shut the door. It has a beautifully carved wooden bed frame, ancient stove straight out of the old west (probably), really cute decorations, ala Smoky the Bear. It's nice. It's not my style, but it's nice. A vacation home, which is what Robin's parents have always used it for, she said.
And now we're here. Together. Alone.
I sidle up next to her, batting my eyes as she sets down the bright lantern on the stove top, flicks the light switch. It's a low light, overhead, but she clicks the lantern off as I put my arms about her neck, kiss her cheek.
"This is nice," I tell her, and press my head against her shoulder. "Now tell me what you were going to tell me so we can make the hotdogs."
"So romantic," she sighs, rolling her eyes, but her grin is only a little one, and she's pushing away from me, gently, pacing into the center of the room, running her hands through her hair. Again, she won't look at me.
"So you're a vampire," I tell her, shaking my head. "We'll get through it."
"Mal, I'm not a vampire," she tells me, face turned away.
I stare at her back, at her bent head. "Then what is it?" My voice wasn't as assured as I hoped it'd be. It comes out a little…weak.
"You know, it's kind of funny…" If my voice was weak, her voice is shaking. "My family always called this 'Curse Cabin.' I never knew why when I was a kid…" She looks back at me, her eyes shining in the soft light. "Mal, I wanted to ask you if, whatever I tell you, would you still love me? But I can't," she says, shaking her head, biting her lip, looking up and at me. "Because that's stupidly unfair. You deserve someone not like me. Not a freak." She takes off her coat, folds it carefully, sets it on the back of the couch.
"A…freak…" I prompt her, my heart beating so fast, it's like a horror movie soundtrack.
"Okay, you know what? I'm just going to tell you, really fast, and then it'll be out there, and you can do whatever you want with it." She closes her eyes tightly, hands balled into fists. "Mal, I'm a werecat."
I blink. She said it so quietly, it takes a full minute before I've deconstructed it in my head and understood.
"A…werecat." I repeat, blinking again. "Like. A werewolf. But. A cat."
"Oh God, I knew it," she wails, flopping down on the couch. "I'm ruined to you. Ruined forever…"
"Robin, would you just shush," I tell her, kneeling down, next to the couch, smooshing my palm over her mouth. "I'm just trying to understand, okay?"
Werecat. I'm picturing a cat like the one I used to have, a tabby with extra whiskers and a knowing expression who would pee on my bookbag when he was pissed at me. Which was often. He was named Mr. Snuggles because I'd had him since I was two, and my parents were brave enough to ask a two year old what to name a kitten.
"I'm sorry," I tell her slowly, carefully, "I'm just surprised, because I thought there was only…I mean, I thought only werewolves existed."
"Werewolves," she says, lip raised, disgust dripping from her voice. "Everyone always knows about werewolves because they're cool. They're sexy. Not like werecats." She sighs for a very long time. "I will understand," she says coolly, "if you wish to break off our current arrangement."
"You idiot," I laugh, falling on top of her, tickling her stomach. And then I'm kissing her. She tastes of coffee and bubblegum and she's kissing back, which is the most important thing. "Look, it doesn't matter to me," I tell her, firmly. "It's just an idea I have to get used to. I'm used to looking at Robin, the human, and now I've got to get used to Robin, the…werecat."
She looks relieved, breathing out, putting her arms around my neck. "Really? You don't think it's…God, I don't know…totally repulsive and weird?"
"Repulsive. I know someone who's been watching too much Secret Diaries of Hell Beasts." I kiss her nose. "So…" I say, dragging out the word, lips arched. "Are you going to show me your kitty side?"
She shakes her head. "I can do it on the full moon, and when I'm surprised or frightened…until I turn eighteen. Then I can do it at will. It's in the rulebook," she grins, and I half wonder if there is an actual werecat rulebook.
"Okay," I whisper to her, nodding. And then: "I'm glad you told me." I kiss her again.
And again.
We kind of forget about the hotdogs.
I'm having a nightmare. I know it's a nightmare—those are the most terrible dreams, where you know you're dreaming, but you can't do anything about it, trapped. There's a shadow, moving along the wall, a shadow sort of a body shape, a human, but with spikes coming out of its back, its face, its hands, and everything is red and black, and I can taste metal. It's crawling toward me.
I wake up, heart pounding, but there's still something wrong, the feeling of the dream reaming. Something's not right. There's Robin, arm wrapped around me, but I feel a chill breeze, and it's only then that I realize the cabin door is open, and there's a human form in the doorway.
Oh my…God.
I poke backward. It's the only thing I know how to do in that moment, because the shadow is tall, and it's probably a guy who just broke into the cabin and we're all alone out here and fuck, why would be break into this cabin unless he saw us, unless he knows we're two girls, and I'm sweating, suddenly, cold, ice cold, and Robin moans a little, and then breathes out in a rush, awake, and she's sitting up beside me, staring.
I'm not quite sure what happens. One moment, Robin was sitting there, but then everything sort of…shifted. Was it the cabin shifting, or my eyes, or Robin? I don't know, but where Robin was, there's something suddenly a lot bigger, a lot bulkier, a lot…animaly-er…and there's a deafening roar that rips through my body, and the shape hurls itself off the bed toward the form in the doorway, who's very suddenly no longer there.
The shadow tears off after it in the woods.
I turn on all the lights. Nope. Robin's not in the bed. I suppose that was Robin. Someone broke into our cabin. Oh my God, someone broke into our cabin, anything could have happened. I run my hands through my hair, sit down in the middle of the floor, rock back and forth, get up, pace, go to the stove and take the heavy iron skillet and sit back down again, holding it.
I don't know how long it's been. An hour? Five minutes? But there's a crunch outside, of branches, of leaves, and then there, in the doorway is…I mean, it's not a cat, it's like a tiger or a panther, the shape of it, but it's as red as Robin's hair.
As I watch, the cabin blurs, the beast blurs, everything blurs, and then Robin's standing there again, watching me with wide eyes, hands held out in front of her.
"Don't worry," she says, taking me into her arms, holding me close, squeezing me tightly. The skillet clangs to the floor, and I'm kissing her, holding her tightly, too, and she's telling me that the stranger's gone, that he's gone, that I'm safe.
Vampires. Werewolves. What the hell ever.
Give me a werecat any night.

Damaged DLLs
One of the primary reasons for DLL's becoming corrupt/damaged is the practice of constantly installing and uninstalling programs. This often means that DLL's will get overwritten by newer versions every time a new program is installed, as an example. This leads to trouble for those programs and applications that still require the old version to use. Thus, the program actually starts to malfunction and crash.
Freezing Computer
Computer hanging or freezing occurs when either a software program or even the whole system ceases to answer inputs. Inside the mostly encountered scenario, a software program freezes and all of windows belonging to the frozen program become static. Usually, the only way to endure a process freeze is always to reboot the appliance, usually by power cycling with an on/off or reset button.
Virus Damage
Once your computer is infected with a virus, it's no longer a similar. After removing it with your anti-virus software, you're often left with lingering side-effects. That doesn't mean it's error-free, even though technically, your computer might no longer be infected. Even simply removing a virus may actually harm your system.
Operating-system Recovery
Reimage repairs and replaces all critical Windows system files necessary to run and restart correctly, without harming your user data. Reimage also restores compromised system registry and settings values to their default Microsoft settings. You might always return your body to its pre-repair condition.

Cato Bolam has been on Hopper Development Limited's professional team since the beginning of the Pauanui Waterways, Whitianga Waterways and the Marsden Cove projects. We have provided the planning and surveying services for these impressive canal housing developments.
Pauanui Waterways was New Zealand's first canal housing development. Stage 3 of the 250 property canal front development is nearing completion.
Whitianga Waterways, New Zealand's largest canal housing project, will comprise of 700 canal front lots, airfield lots, 700 other lots and will integrate waterfront retail, tourist accommodation, apartments and a range of other facilities when complete.
The Marsden Cove canal housing and marina project will develop 350 canal front sites, a 250 berth marina and 200 residential sites overlooking the marina. Stage 2 is about to be released with all construction work now complete.
Unique Challenges
Hopper Developments are New Zealand's premier canal housing developers. We share Hopper's passion for creating the highest quality developments on the edge of our amazing coastal playground. Leading the country in the first canal housing developments has provided exciting challenges for both our planners and surveyors. We have worked with the councils through the strategic and master planning issues to achieve some of this country's most impressive residential sites.
Our surveyors have certainly become New Zealand's experts in the complexities of canal development land transfer surveys with their extensive array of mooring and canal easements and the associated legal covenants and consent notices.
How we assisted
Cato Bolam Consultants have been on the Hopper Development project team since the late 1980's providing planning and surveying expertise for the development of the waterway projects. We have worked closely with the client during the conceptual stages to develop the canal and residential subdivision plans for what have become New Zealand's leading waterways developments.
Our planning and surveying team have consulted closely with the clients, local and regional councils and other consultants to prepare and secure the subdivision and land use consents and consents for the associated land use activities.
On the completion of the canal and residential construction works our professional surveyors have undertaken the land transfer surveying required to place the new boundary pegs and prepare the very complex legal plans and consulting with council over the release for the final Section 224(c ) completion certificate to enable the titles to issue.
Our team of surveyors have over the period of the development undertaken all of the highly accurate precise levelling for monitoring settlement following the breaching of the coffer dams when the water floods the canals.
We are proud to continue our excellent working relationship with Hopper Developments in the development of these impressive waterways developments.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — A U.N. committee on Wednesday granted North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's entire delegation an exemption from U.N. sanctions ahead of its scheduled trip to Singapore to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump.
Singapore's U.N. ambassador, Burhan Gafoor, asked the Security Council committee monitoring sanctions against North Korea for a sanctions exemption for the delegation to attend the scheduled June 12 meeting as well as for "preparatory work for the summit."
A deadline of 3 p.m. was set to raise objections and diplomats said none were received.
The exemption will directly affect anyone in the delegation who is on the U.N. sanctions blacklist and therefore is banned from traveling and subject to an asset freeze. It would also allow all delegation members to take home luxury goods whose import to North Korea is banned by the council.
Gafoor's letter, sent Friday and obtained by The Associated Press, did not mention the names of any members of the delegation from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the country's official name.
The sanctions committee can grant exemptions on a case-by-case basis for any reason consistent with the objectives of relevant Security Council resolutions.
In requesting the exemption, Gafoor said, "The summit will serve as an opportunity to advance the objective of a peaceful resolution of the DPRK nuclear issue and the establishment of peace and stability on the Korean peninsula and in the region."
Ambassador Karel Van Oosterom of the Netherlands, who heads the North Korea sanctions committee, sent a proposed letter of approval to the sanctions committee, which includes all 15 members of the Security Council.
South Korea asked the committee for similar exemptions that were granted for the North Korean delegations which attended the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang in February.

Italy's MESSA Set April Release Date For Feast For Water Album
February 12, 2018, a year ago
Italy's peerless "scarlet doom" foursome Messa have announced the release of their sophomore full-length, Feast For Water, to be issued on April 6th via Aural Music.
Messa play evoking doom metal with a dark jazz twist. Deliciously haunting female vocals, Rhodes piano and 70's fuzz guitars combine to conjure a sound that is all of their own. With influences as diverse as Windhand, Bohren Und Der Club Of Gore, The Devil's Blood, Jex Thoth, Angelo Badalamenti, Bellwitch, Urfaust, John Coltrane and Aluk Todolo, the band has moved from the droning occult doom of their first LP Belfry to a new, darker and more atmospheric approach clearly showcased in their new record Feast For Water, a concept album centred on the introspective, symbolic and ritual features of the liquid element.
"Snakeskin Drape"
"The Seer"
"She Knows"
"White Stains"
"Da Tariki Tariquat"
Messa emerged on the first day of 2014. Marco and Sara started to develop the basic concept while writing the first songs. Later on, Alberto and Rocco joined the band. The extreme diversity of their musical background immediately proved to be essential in the construction of the band's sound. In 2016, Messa signed a deal with Aural Music and subsequently released their first opus, Belfry, which was brought on tour extensively across Europe and North America. A flexy disc and a Picture 7'' were released before the band got to work on their second album Feast For Water, a mind blowing Dark Jazz Doom ritual drenched in Occult Blues from hell.
Messa is:
Marco - Guitar, Bass, Ambient
Sara - Voice
Rocco - Drums, Screams
Alberto - Lead Guitar, Rhodes piano

Taking the role of Henry Edwards, Hyde explores the mind of a business tycoon's son. Initially Henry is a man who appears to have it all, but as the lines between the past and the present begin to blur, his lifestyle and upbringing begin to be called into question. Hyde's game-play fits securely into the genre of Interactive Fiction, whilst following a gripping thriller narrative. You need not click on anything in Hyde, nor do you need to remember any complex controls; Just W,A,S & D to move, and move the Mouse to look around.
I really liked the experience of Hyde. It's creepy but more due to your own imagination than any explicite scares.
The game is not so much interactive but you can discover quite a bit about your in-game alter ego if you explore the levels. A little problem is that you can miss parts of a level if you stumble upon the end of that level (and then the level ends) before you can explore other parts (happened to me in the graveyard level).
But overall it's a good experience and the whole package (graphics, music, sound) creates an exceptional atmosphere.

2 cups sliced almonds
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup melted coconut oil
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Place nuts, sunflower seeds, coconut, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl and mix. Melt coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium high heat – measuring after the oil has melted and pouring out any extra or adding more if needed. Add half cup of honey and heat for a few more minutes stirring honey and coconut oil together.
Pour honey mixture over nut mixture and stir well to evenly coat the nuts with the oil mixture. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone liner. Bake for 30 minutes stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Take out of oven and let cool before transferring to an airtight container for storage. Place half a cup of granola in a bowl and pour one cup of coconut milk or almond milk over top. Eat with a spoon – YUM!

HMA horse stableLightweight Back to overview
In search of the largest inner volume to provide the horse utmost space? The HMA horse stall is unrivalled in terms of inner volume.
The HMA can be equipped with all the features so much preferred by grooms, to make this spacious giant a very safe and comfortable cabin during air travel for both horses as animal attendants.
The HMA is based upon a robust sandwich pallet to allow handling per forklift truck and to prevent the horses from feeling the rollers (PDU) inside the aircraft when being positioned to their final pallet position.
A rigid top structure is arranged through large, well-rounded aluminium extrusions. Panels are - with the shown version - made from aluminium skinned sandwich panels which offer an interesting strength to weight ratio.
Front and aft side are equipped with ramps to allow uni-directional horse (un)loading. The ramps can however open as regular cargo doors too (vertically hinged) to allow loading of cargo per forklift truck. This door construction therefore allows some general cargo revenue when positioning the horse stall through your network.
Grooms and animal attendants can make their entrance through easy to operate sliding doors which do not protrude inwards, to prevent upsetting the horses at entrance.
Partitions separating the horses feature built-in retractable sniffer boards. The partitions are hung from the top with maintenance free bearings and can be simply maneuvered by hand to ease loading. The partitions can easily be locked at various desired locations with robust stainless steel spring-loaded pins.
Solid breast frames allow the grooms and animal attendants a safe working area to look after the animals during the shipment. Multiple rings and hooks provide convenient storage of hay bags etc.
At the aft side, additional aft bars and kick doors could be provided to retain each horse in position directly after loading – the grooms can then concentrate on the loading of the next animal.
The HMA is certified by EASA and FAA without restrictions.
In our development, we searched for a combination of increased durability and groom safety while reducing the tare weight. Besides the aforementioned, we focused on noise reduction. Quite a task, however the end result proved it can be done.
Despite the HMA being the largest horse stable available, it weighs relatively little when considering all functionalities.
The HMA is suitable for B747F shipment. Other aircraft types may accept the HMA however then need to fly the HMA at the centre-position (rather than side-by-side).

This paper presents a general algorithmic framework for reconfiguring a modular robot consisting of identical 2D tiles, where the basic move is to pivot one tile around another at a shared vertex. The robot must remain connected and avoid collisions throughout all moves. For square tiles, and hexagonal tiles on either a triangular or hexagonal lattice, we obtain optimal O(n2)-move reconfiguration algorithms. In particular, we newly establish universal reconfigurability in the first two cases, and generalize a previous result for the third case from the robotics community (WAFR 2000).
For triangular tiles, reconfigurability is more difficult to characterize. We also consider a strengthening of a model analyzed by Dumitrescu and Pach (SoCG 2004) where tiles slide instead of pivot (making it easier to avoid collisions), and obtain an optimal O(n2)-move reconfiguration algorithm, improving their O(n3) bound, as well as solving their open problem about maintaining stricter connectivity.

damn my kids are good at soccer. with the pisser suspended and our read aloud to kinder postponed, we went to recess in the morning and no one had to sit out next to me finishing work or reading. i wandered over to the field to watch my boys up close for the first time in months. all but one boy were playing soccer and they kick SO MUCH ASS. good shots and blocks all around and one of them even uses his head to keep the ball in play. i was very enthusiastic, especially when goals were made, and it was awfully nice to see the pride in their eyes. i was invited to play but politely declined since i was wearing chanclas and have an unfortunate toenail malfunction due to a late-night dancing mishap. next time, definitely.

If you have bone broth on hand and some basic veggies, chicken and spices, you can make some in-house, short-cut pho in a snap. Hence "Snappy Pho"...you catch on quick! While in my humble opinion (although...does anyone else's matter?), pho isn't pho without the soft delicious noodles, you don't need them to make a delicious asian-infused soup. But the noodles come highly recommended. I used miracle noodles for an authentic effect and consistency. Rice noodles will also do the trick ("OH MY GOD THEY'RE NOT PALEO THOUGH!" Chill the f out, you'll live). Zoodles or kelp noodles will also be tasty, they just won't have the consistency of pho noodles. Obviously.
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 chicken breasts, sliced thinly
- 1/2 large yellow onion, sliced
- 1/2 cup sliced white mushrooms
- 1/2 tsp sea salt, plus more to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper, plus more to taste
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground turmeric
- 3 cups chicken or beef bone broth
- 1 package of miracle noodles
- In a heavy bottomed pot, heat the coconut oil on medium/high heat. Add the sliced chicken, onions and mushrooms and let saute until the chicken is cooked through.
- Add all the seasonings and stir until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes).
- Pour in the bone broth, bring to rolling boil.
- Rinse your miracle noodles according to the packet instructions and add them to the boiling soup. Reduce the soup to a simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Serve!
Servings: 2-3

Wedding Villa or Resort. You decide!
This probably won't come as too much of a surprise, but choosing the right venue for your destination wedding is pretty crucial to the whole wedding thing. Once decided upon the actual destination, you are then faced with the challenge of picking the appropriate wedding venue.
The trouble with choosing the type of property in which to hold your wedding, begins with the colossal number of Destination Wedding Venues out there. The lines can get somewhat blurry.
The first hurdle to overcome is whether to marry within a Resort / Hotel environment or a Private Wedding Villa. There are of course pro's and con's associated with either option, so let's take a closer look at both options and see if we can offer you a little guidance.
To initiate your thought process, an important question to ask yourself is the sensitive issue of Privacy.
What level of seclusion do you envisage for your wedding, as will be a deciding factor when choosing between a Private Villa Wedding or at a resort.
Obviously, in most cases a Private Villa will offer a far more secluded location for both wedding and reception (clue is in the name), though do not count on this entirely. In most Asian and Pacific locations, all beaches are deemed public, so a Villa by the beach may not necessarily guarantee an unwanted audience. If privacy is a big deal for you, the foremost question on your lips should be, how secluded is the Villa from its neighbouring area?
For the more aloof of couples, fortunately there are plenty of wedding villas which are relatively inaccessible to those unwanted guests, but you would be wise to discuss this with your Destination Wedding Planner, to clarify your privacy expectations.
Now because Wedding Villas usually offer a more private experience, this isolation often comes at a cost. Ain't that always the way! So if you are the private type, is this the end of the road for your Destination Wedding dream?
Well of course not!
For a start, there are a number of resorts, strategically located to offer a more private wedding experience and many will even cordon off sections of the resort, to ensure those prying eyes do not invade the intimacy you so desire for your wedding day.
The very private beach at the Silavadee Resort - Koh Samui
Once again, your destination wedding planner will have a list of the more discrete wedding venues out there and can offer some great advice on how to achieve the precise level privacy you are looking for.
But with cost in mind, don't necessarily rule out a Wedding Villa just yet. With more and more properties being built, specifically with Destination Wedding appeal, affordable Villa options are beginning to creep into the market.
One such example, is the gorgeous Kya Beach House, on the Thailand island of Koh Samui. Located just off the beaten track and with its own private beach, a Thailand Villa Wedding can be accomplished for far less than you might fear.
You just need to ask the right people!
So we have established that a Villa Wedding often delivers a more intimate experience and with that comes the feeling of exclusivity. But for many brides, the last thing they want, is to hide away. In fact, lots of couples want the world to know they are getting married and couldn't really care less, who wants to stand and watch from the sidelines.
The long and short of it is, a more open disposition, will make way for a lot more options. But don't think that a lack of seclusion has to impact upon how exclusive the wedding is. On the contrary!
While larger resorts may not be able to offer much in the way of seclusion, their size and experience in managing their facilities, allows for more 'Bells and Whistles' during the event.
And while on the subject of Bells and Whistles, wedding receptions can get a little noisy at times, so be sure to consider how loud your guests might get, when choosing the venue.
Again moving on neatly from the topic of your guests, another important factor to bear in mind is the proximity of your guest accommodation.
To give you some perspective, if you are Tying the Knot on a small island such as Koh Samui or Santorini, guests will not have to traverse great distances to attend your wedding, regardless of whether you choose a remote Villa or a Resort. However, if you are getting married somewhere like Fiji or even Phuket, your guests could be well advised to either stay at the resort in which your event is planned or look close by.
A villa may have several bedrooms or it may not and if you choose to hire the Villa for a number of days, this can accommodate some or all of your guests (depending on numbers).
For a larger wedding though, a resort provides convenience for you and guests, eliminating any late night cab rides or guests turning up late to the ceremony.
Getting you guests to and from your wedding is paramount, so for big wedding groups, be sure to factor this in.
Finally, when weighing up the pro's and con's between a Wedding Villa or Resort Wedding, what are the must haves? Certain resorts like to do everything 'in-house' and this can include photographers, entertainment and stylists. So while they may well be good at what they do, what's on offer may not be exactly what you are looking for. Renting a Villa usually allows far more freedom to pick the service providers that suit the image you wish to portray through décor and ambience.
And here's the kicker. Alcohol packages at the resorts can get real pricey and are often quite limited, whereas a Villa Wedding allows you to bring in whatever beverages you desire, at a significantly lower cost.
The in-house, package style resort wedding will suit the bride who just wants to turn up on the big day and have little else to do with planning process, but for more intricate weddings and receptions, fewer resorts offer the flexibility of a Private Villa, which brings us back neatly to where we started.
How exclusive do you want your wedding to be?
If you are still not being swayed either way, our planners have an extensive list of Villas, Hotels, Resorts and other Venues to suit every need and can quickly provide you with some inspiration to make that choice and move on the very exciting planning process.

Audit The Fed May Lay Groundwork for "End The Fed"
As this OpenCongress article points out, once the Fed has undergone an audit and its failings found … it may be discovered that the wisest move would be to "End The Fed."
From the article:
Current U.S. Code protects the Fed's secrecy in several important areas (31 USC 714 – Sec. 714):
Audits of the Federal Reserve Board and Federal reserve banks may not include – (1) transactions for or with a foreign central bank, government of a foreign country, or nonprivate international financing organization; (2) deliberations, decisions, or actions on monetary policy matters, including discount window operations, reserves of member banks, securities credit, interest on deposits, and open market operations; (3) transactions made under the direction of the Federal Open Market Committee; or (4) a part of a discussion or communication among or between members of the Board of Governors and officers and employees of the Federal Reserve System related to clauses (1)-(3) of this subsection.
All of these barriers to access would be eliminated by Rep. Paul's bill.
