In Search of the Uldans Audiobook | Vasily Mahanenko | Audible.ca
Written by: Vasily Mahanenko, Colin Parker - Translated by
I was a big fan of the first book, so I was really excited to see book two released in audio format and purchased it immediately. Disappointment ensued. One problem is that there was a two year gap between the first and second volumes. Apparently the author/publisher was not able to get the same reader who performed volume one. It's not that the reader does a bad job; it's just that the voice (literally) of the story changed. My main issue, however, is that Surgeon, the protagonist, turned into a huge greedy capitalistic jerk. What happened to the whole: "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs", comrade? Mr. Mahanenko also displays more of a willingness to get his characters screwed over by "the betters" IRL, then involve them in a melodramatic struggle to recover than he did in book one. This is an unfortunate (although understandable, given their country's history) tendency that other Russian LitRPG writers tend to wallow in as well.
I like Vasily's work. It has a great balance between high fantasy/sci-fi and real life consequences (if you live in the future and spend most of your time in VR -- that kind of real life). Game stats, high adventure, political intrigue in and out of the game. I dig the odd twists and turns the story takes quite a bit. That's why I keep coming back.
I don't buy the grand manipulators story. Its not a major factor to the majority of the story, but it does detract. These big wigs who run governments and businesses are spending their time analyzing human psyche and betting on it for fun? They shake off murder without batting an eye? Yeah -- okay they are sociopaths I guess. Just doesn't work for me. Maybe it works for others. Its not bad enough to worry too much about though. Like I said, the majority of this story is high adventure, witty hijinks and daring escapes.
I am NOT a fan AT ALL of Matt Godfrey's voice in this book. I almost had to quit listening at several points because it sounds like he was crying when he was trying to do a voice. His voice quivers and shakes and his female voices just don't work. Maybe he was sick -- or something. Just - not a fan.
If you like book one. Buy this one. Its a solid continuation of the story.
I was excited to listen to this book because I enjoyed book 1 quite a lot, but this one... It didn't grip me in quite the same way, and if I'm being honest it reads more like a space opera than a LitRPG. There's a few chapters in the beginning before entering the game, and after that the story feels like it was originally written as a space ship sci-fi, that was retroactively edited to insert quest prompts to classify it as LitRPG. There's no real pursuit of new skills/abilities or anything like that. Things are described as they would be in non-LitRPG novels without any mention of game mechanics aside from the occasional "You've completed this quest."

1. Eucalyptus essential oil is great for relieving congested noses, coughs, and chest colds. I make my own VapoRub by mixing 15-20 drops of Eucalyptus essential oil into a small jar of my homemade lotion (which I still love and am obsessed with, by the way. I have given little jars of it to my in-laws and sisters and gotten them hooked, too. My skin has never been softer, and it uses three ingredients. Try it!) I rub the eucalyptus lotion onto her chest and back to help with congestion. Massaging a few drops of the essential oil onto the soles of her feet helps ease coughing fits, and when I bathe her I add some to the water and let it get nice and steamy.
Edited to add: A lovely reader named Allison noted in the comments that strong essential oils like peppermint and eucalyptus aren’t recommended for children under the age of ten, so using an alternative like fir oil is best.
2. Fluids & Nutrition. Olive’s appetite is gone (another oddity for this child of mine who once ate six eggs for breakfast) so making sure she is eating enough and staying hydrated has been a challenge. Coconut water is an amazing natural source of electrolytes (I drink it a lot because of my kidney condition) and because of its sweetness she is more likely to drink it than she would plain water. I typically don’t give her juices, but all bets are off at this point. Smoothies have been a hit too – I add lots of spinach, ginger, and citrus fruits to make them as healthy as possible. Using frozen fruit makes a cold smoothie, which seems to feel nice on her throat.
3. Runny Noses. I really wish I could teach her how to use a neti pot, it would help her so much, but I mean, if there is anyone out there who has successfully taught a two-and-a-half year old to use a Neti Pot without coming out looking like they’ve tangled with a mountain lion, I would love to meet you.
There are rivers of snot over here right now, and I have a Nose Frida from when she was a newborn but I have never been able to get within five feet of her with the damn thing (I don’t blame you, Olive. It’s weird.) To cut down on waste and soothe her sore nose I have been trying to use a soft warm washcloth rather than tissues/toilet paper, and a bit of coconut oil is helping soothe any chapped skin on the nose or upper lip.
4. Magic Tea my go-to cold buster. If you haven’t tried this yet, don’t be put off by the ingredients – you can’t taste the garlic and your toddler will probably like it, especially if you drink it too. If I am making a batch for Olive I will typically omit the cayenne, and double the honey.
(For persistent coughs and sore throats, a small teaspoon of plain honey can often help to coat the throat and ease soreness.)
5. Sleep. Did you just laugh out loud? Ha! Oh, sleep! Is that all? I mean, just sleep! But seriously, sleep. Ever since Olive gave up her naps I have had to be pretty careful not to let her sleep during the day or her normal 8pm bedtime gets pushed back to 10 or even 11 o’clock at night. But yesterday she went to bed at 6:30pm, and she has napped on and off all day today. Chances are that between their coughing and discomfort you will be up most of the night anyway, so you might as well take the sleep if and when you can get it (and use it productively. To write posts for your Internet Blog. For example.)
Here’s hoping Miss Olive is back to her energetic self in no time. And although it is absolutely heartbreaking seeing her like this, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t secretly loving the chance to lie in bed snuggling her all day. It’s like she’s a newborn all over again.
Thanks for the tips even though I don’t have children yet I do like to take notes :). I have also heard good things about oregano oil, and heard to use just a small amount for little ones. I think Vega-licious.com has a post about it on her blog.

Keeping Christ The Center of Christmas With Advent Scriptures For Refelction -
With all the holiday traditions, Christmas can bring stress and busyness instead of peace and reflection. But today, that can change! We can choose to keep Christ the center of Christmas through advent scriptures for reflection.
The word "Advent" comes from a Latin word adventus which means "coming." The early church celebrated the coming (or anticipated birth) of our Savior.
" All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means 'God is with us')." ~ Isaiah 7:14(NLT)
It wasn't until later on, that the church today not only celebrates the birth of our Savior, but His second coming.
"Look, I am coming soon! Blessed are those who obey the words of prophecy written in this book" ~ Revelation 22:7(NLT)
Advent begins 4 Sundays prior to Christmas. It's a time for celebration and reflection of the birth of our Savior who gives us; hope, peace, joy and love, while we anticipate His second coming for us.
Christians around the world celebrate advent in different ways each week. For the most part the common denominator is reflection on scripture, worship, prayer, communion and / or fasting.
There are many aspects of the traditional Advent celebration that represent a wreath, candles and daily scripture reading.
And it's the daily scripture reading that I want to focus on today.
*There is so much more to the history and how advent is celebrated. If you're interested, you can read all those details here.
Our Need For Advent Scriptures
Recently, we released our Christmas Planner – to help you keep Christ and peace in the season. Well, the largest part of keeping Christ in the season, is to reflect on the scriptures.
Traditions are good, and there's nothing wrong with them. However, God is not looking at how you live out tradition. He is more concerned about your heart.
So whether you participate in "traditional" Advent or not, durning Christmas, we can choose to be in God's presence. By reading His Word, remembering our need for a Savior, experiencing His joy, His peace and resting our hope in His return for us.
And that is living out scripture.
If you don't get anything from this post today, I want you to get this…
Advent is more about the WHY we celebrate than the HOW.
We are told in Romans 14: 5-6 (NLT) says; "One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. 6 Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God."
Reflecting on scripture, and being in the Lord's presence can be done in numerous ways. You can read your Bible, pray, worship, take communion, fast, attend church services, or even read a devotional.
The important thing is, do whatever the Holy Spirit has led you to do. And for those of you who don't know where to start, we have a guide to help you.
Advent Scriptures For Reflection
Here are some scriptures for reflection during Advent. Remember these are suggestions, only a guide. You can read one each day, several, or whatever is peaceful for you. These scriptures are also available in a FREE printable that you can download from our FREE COMMUNITY LIBRARY.
Week 1 Advent Scriptures
Our need for a savior: Genesis 3:1-15; Isaiah 40: 1-5; Isaiah 40: 9-11; Dueteromony 18:15-19; Isaiah 52: 7-10; Psalm 89:1-4; Romans 13:11-14
Week 2 Advent Scriptures
Looking forward to the prophecy: Isaiah 11:1-10; Isaiah 7:14; Zachariah 6:12-13; Malachi 3:1-6; Micah 5:2-5; John 1:1-9; John 10:10-18; Mark 1:1-3
Download Advent Scriptures from our FREE COMMUNITY LIBRAY
Week 3 Advent Scriptures
Our Messiah:
Luke 1:1-13; Luke 1:14-17; Luke 1:18-25; Luke 1:39-45; Luke 1:46-56; Luke 1: 57-66; Luke 1:67-80
Week 4 Advent Scriptures
Celebrate our Savior & His Return For Us:
Isaiah 7:10-14; Luke 1:26-35; Isaiah 9:2-7; Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 2:1-20; Matthew 2:1-2; Luke 2: 21-25; Revelation 22:7
Make Your Own Advent Scriptures For Reflection
A few days ago I saw this suggestion on social media. And I must admit, I was excited about trying something new!
The suggestion was to read a chapter of Luke every night starting December 1st, since there are 24 chapters, by Christmas Eve you would have read the entire book of Luke knowing WHO and WHY we celebrate!
There's no right or wrong way to reflect on the birth of our Savior and His return for us. The Bible is the LIVING word of God, that comes alive to us in new ways EVERY time we read it.
In order for us to make Jesus the reason for the season, we must purpose to reflect on Him through His Word, worship, prayer, and communion. And we do this, simply because we love Him and anticipate His return for us.
So tell me, how will you reflect on Christ this Christmas?

The modern Thai Capital Market was started in 1961 when Thailand implemented its first five-year National Economic and Social Development Plan. It supports the promotion of economic growth and stability as well as develops the Kingdom's standard of living. After that, the Second National Economic and Social Development Plan (1967-1971) proposed to set up an orderly securities market in order to gather additional capital to support Thailand's industrialization and economic development. The modern Thai capital market can be divided into two phases, "The Bangkok Stock Exchange" which was privately owned and "The Securities Exchange of Thailand".
The BSE finally ceased operations in the early 1970s because of a lack of official government support and a limited investor understanding of the equity market Establishment of the Stock Exchange of Thailand Despite the failure of the BSE, the concept of an orderly security market had attracted a lot of Thai people attention. In 1969, as recommended by the World Bank, the government acquired the services of Professor Sidney M. Robbins from Columbia University to study the development channels of the Thai capital market.
In 1972 the Government took a further step in this direction by improving the "Announcement of the Executive Council No. 58 on the Control of Commercial Undertakings Affecting Public Safety and Welfare". The changes were allowed Government to control more over the operations of finance and securities companies. After that, in 1974, "The Securities Exchange of Thailand" (SET) was enacted allowing the investment to save in the capital market. By 1975, the basic legislative framework was in place and the Securities Exchange of Thailand officially started trading.
On January 1, 1991 its name was formally changed to "The Stock Exchange of Thailand" (SET). Vision Empowering business and investors through our strengths to match the right financial opportunities Mission Clients and Intermediaries "Expand business issuers and investor base by satisfying their financial needs and strengthening intermediaries for mutual growth and success" Products and Services "Offer a wide range of attractive products and services to create value and match financial opportunities across different segments of business and investors" Operations Operate with flawless execution according to international standards to ensure efficiency, effectiveness, flexibility and global connectivity" People and Culture "Inspire staff to perform up to their fullest potential and create a corporate culture that aims at achieving excellence in matching the right financial opportunities for business and investors" Regulatory Framework of the Capital Market The Securities and Exchange Act of 1992 (SEA), specified the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as the regulator of the Thai Capital Market.
While the SEC oversees the development of the Kingdom's capital market, the Bank of Thailand (BOT) is responsible for the country's money market. Primary Market The SEC looked over a company that wants to issue new securities, an initial public offering (IPO) or additional securities to the public. The company must first apply for SEC approval and comply with its filing requirements. Then, the SEC is required to review the financial status and operations of the company before allowing the firm to issue securities to the public. Secondary Market
Securities may be traded in the secondary market once the issuer has applied for and been approval by the SET. Operations The Stock Exchange of Thailand is a juristic entity that was set up under the Securities Exchange of Thailand Act, B. E. 2517 (1974). Operations started on April 30, 1975. Its main operations include securities listing, supervision of listed companies and information disclosure, trading, market surveillance and member supervision, information dissemination and investor education. Moreover, its duty is to promote saving and long term financial planning for developing the economy.
SET is a center for trading of listed securities without distributing any profit to members. Board of governors Regulatory Framework The SET Board of Governors is comprised of a maximum of eleven people, five of whom are appointed by the SEC, and five who are elected by SET members. The SET President, appointed by the Board, is an ex-officio member of the Board. The Board is also responsible for formulating the SET policies. Management The organizational chart of SET can be classified into two major parts which are Exchange Function and CMDF Function.
Each function's organizational structure can be seen below. | | SET's Role The Stock Exchange of Thailand has been continuously improved the management system of listed Thai companies to have good governance. SET was started to study about the roles of audit committee in 1995 before the financial crisis. After that, it issued a listing requirement indicating that all listed companies have an audit committee in early 1998. In that year, the SET also issued a guideline namely "Code of Best Practices for Directors of Listed Companies" to be a guild role of audit committee.
Two years later, the Good Corporate Governance Committee, consisting of representatives from a variety of professional organizations, disseminated a report on corporate governance which set a framework to be used by organizations in the Thai capital market for developing good corporate governance systems and practices. The Thai government designated the "Compass for Good Corporate Governance" and set up the National Corporate Governance Committee (NCGC). In the same year, SET also proposed fifteen principles of good corporate governance for listed companies to implement.
The listed companies have to apply the fifteen principles and are required to demonstrate in their annual registration statement (Form 56-1) and annual reports starting from the accounting period ending December 31, 2002. In July 2002, the SET has established the Corporate Governance Center to help listed companies develop their corporate governance system. The Center provides consulting services to and exchanges ideas about corporate governance practices with directors and executives of listed companies, as well as those of firms preparing to be listed companies.
Corporate Governance Center Background The SET has established the Corporate Governance Center to support listed companies. It encourages the company to have good corporate governance and stakeholders include shareholders, suppliers, customers, creditors, employees, and the community etc. Corporate Governance Center builds to have confidence investment in Thai capital market which support the knowledge about corporate governance including the developing good corporate governance system and practices. . The Center of consulting service Giving advises and exchange idea about corporate governance practices with directors and executives of listed companies as well as those of firms preparing to be listed companies. 2. Corporate Governance Self Assessment Evaluation was followed by the rule of listing company 3. Producing and disseminating a variety of information and materials as guidelines. 4. Holding activities to help educate listed companies' directors and executives. Products and Services
One of the SET's missions is to "Offer a wide range of attractive products and services to create value and match financial opportunities across different segments of business and investors. " SET has continuously developed new products and services and improved the system to satisfy needs of the investors. SET group supervises trading activities and market participants to ensure that the market is fair, orderly, and transparent. The products and services of SET are as following. Product The products that SET offers can be classified into 5 major categories; equities, bonds, derivatives, exchange-traded fund (ETF), and derivative warrants.
The more details of each type are discussed as following. 1. Equities Equity trading is the trading of securities issued by public companies where shareholders have a direct stake in the company as well as the right to vote in shareholders' meetings. The secondary markets for equities trading are The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) and Market for Alternative Investment (MAI). Types of equities are ordinary shares, preferred share, warrants, unit trusts, non-voting depository receipt, and depository receipt (DR). SET and MAI are different in terms of the types of equities traded.
On SET, investors can trade all types of equities, whereas on MAI preferred shares and depository receipt (DR) are not traded. Market for Alternative Investment or MAI was established in June 1999 in order to encourage the smaller firms with potential high growth and innovation. MAI serves as a new fund-raising source for such firms and new alternative investments for investors who are interested. The vision of MAI is "We strive to be the right and efficient exchange creating value for high potential, innovative and ventures companies in ASEAN. " The core values of MAI are to be focus, accountable, networking, zealous, and innovative. . Bonds After a bond is issued and sold in the primary market, the bond can be electronically traded through Bond Electronic Exchange (BEX), where investors can buy and sell bonds. The market was first launched on November 26th, 2003, and its goal is "to develop all facets of the Thai bond market to reach an international standard, on par with other mature bond markets in the rest of the world". 3. Derivatives Derivatives are traded through Thailand Futures Exchange or TFEX which was established on May 17th, 2004. TFEX play a big role in Thailand economy in stabilizing and sustaining financial market and corporates.
Derivatives are used to protect companies from unanticipated change of underlying assets which might be the raw material of the company. In other words, TFEX allows investors to hedge their risk by utilizing derivative products. TFEX has continuously introduced new products to be traded on the market. Up to the present, TFEX has a total of 11 products in 5 categories, which are equity, interest rate, precious metal, energy, and currency. First category, equity derivatives have a total of 4 types, which are SET 50 Index Futures, SET 50 Index Options, Sector Index Futures, and Single Stock Future.
Second, derivatives that are traded on interest rate are 3-Month BIBOR Futures, 6-Month THBFIX Futures, and 5-Year Government Bond Futures. Third, derivatives for precious metal are 10 Baht Gold Futures, 50 Baht Gold Futures, and Silver Futures. Forth, derivative on energy price is Brent Crude Oil Futures. Fifth, the currency derivative is USD Futures. 4. ETF Exchange-traded fund or ETF is an open-ended mutual fund which is traded on the stock exchange. Through brokers, ETF investors can buy and sell at any time during the trading hours at the prevailing price when the order is executed.
The main difference between normal mutual funds and ETF is that mutual fund is normally traded via asset management company or a fund issuer at the end of the trading day while ETF has real-time NAV or Indicative NAV which is calculated throughout the trading hours. With the help of designated market maker or liquidity provider, it allows investors to trade at the market price at any time. ETF is a passive management fund since it basically invests in a basket of underlying stocks which can be SET 50 Index, a stock sector index, commodity index and commodity price such as gold price and oil price.
Mostly, ETF is the replicate of a stock index, making the expense and management fee lower for ETF. In contrast, mutual fund is more active making the cost of management more expensive as well. 5. Derivative Warrants (DW) Derivative Warrants give the holder right to buy a stock or an underlying security at the pre-determined price within the stated period for certain quantity. The issuer of derivative warrant is a third party, not the issuer of the underlying securities. Warrants and Derivative Warrants are different in many aspects, as shown in the following table Services 1. Information service
Due to SET comprehensive, accurate and up-to-date source of Thai listed companies information, SET provides information service for customers who would like to access and disseminate trading or listed company information either with commercial or non-commercial purpose. Major customers of this service are member companies, data vendors, presses, academic institutes, mutual funds, governmental agencies and general investors. SET Information Service is classified into 3 categories; a. Datafeed (raw data for further application) b. SETSMART or SET Market Analysis and Reporting Tool c.
IR website service for SET listed companies 2. Listing service on SET Companies that are interested in listing itself on SET have to meet many rules and regulations. Being a listed company gives the company many advantages. The company will have a larger source of long-term capital that is crucially important to enhance its operation, expansion and competitiveness. The company will obtain a better and positive public image due to its high standard and transparency giving the company with higher bargaining power and company's credibility.

Institutional service
Normally, investors can trade through Internet trading and ordering via marketing, but SET also provides a special service of institutional investors. With a Direct Market Access or DMA, a member can allow its customers to use this securities trading method. First, member has to receive permission from the Exchange, and then the member will be able to allow their customers to trade through the DMA system. Only Automatic Order Matching or AOM is allowed to use in DMA system. Besides from DMA, institutional investors can also trade through Program Trading that is trading software that can automatically create and send orders.
Brokers are allowed to use this program to follow various strategies such as market-making strategy, arbitrage strategy, VWAP, TWAP, Volume Inline, Price Inline. Revenue Structure Financial Events that Affect SET Believe it or not, there is a saying that economic and financial crisis will happen somehow somewhere every 10 years. So far, we have seen many of these crises within the last decade whether it was the Great Depression in 1929, the Oil Crisis in 1973, the Latin American Debt Crisis in 1980s, the Collapse of the Japanese Asset Price Bubble in 1990s, the Asian Financial Crisis in 1997, and the U.
S. Subprime Mortgage Crisis in 2007 that lead to the Global Financial Crisis nowadays especially in the Euro Zone. All of these are major events that would no doubt affect the performance of SET and other stock markets around the globe. We will discuss the effect of the financial crisis after the year 1972 which was when the initiative to form SET was started. The Oil Crisis in 1973 did not affect SET that much since the institution was not established yet but the crisis rather made the Thai government to think about the energy security of the country.
Five years later Petroleum Authority of Thailand was founded to solve this concern. The Latin America Debt Crisis in 1980s severely affects the economy of the countries in that region and did post some effect on the economy in our region. The market capitalization of SET went down from THB 33. 08 billion in 1978 to THB 23. 47 billion in 1981 before it rebounded back to THB 34. 79 billion in 1983 where it continued to expand rapidly. In fact the market capitalization of SET triple during 1988-1989. The next major financial crisis is the Collapse of the Japanese Asset Price Bubble in 1990s that is very likely to impact our economy.
Surprisingly the Japanese crisis did not have a negative impact on Thailand but rather provide us with the opportunity. SET statistics shows that during the early 1990s, the market capitalization continuously expanded from THB 613. 5 billion to THB 3. 56 trillion. This resulted from the fact that Thailand was one of the five tigers at that time so having Japan falling; investors moved their capital to Thailand where it was safer. Thailand continued to grow in term of GDP and capital investment until 1997 when the Asian Financial Crisis took place.
SET lost 28. 19% of its market capitalization in 1996 and lost 55. 7% more in 1997 when the government announced to float the currency. SET could not recover to its original prosper period until 2003. In 1990, Southeast Asia was an attractive region for foreign investor who looked for a high rate of return. As a result, there is a large capital inflow of money and an increasing in asset price. The growth rates in the early 1990s were as high as 12% of GDP, leading analysts to refer to the phenomenon as the "Asian Tigers" and "Asian Economic Miracle. Thailand's economy developed into a bubble fueled by hot money. At the same time, Thailand ran huge deficits. They borrowed quite a bit of money externally and keep their own interest rates fixed which led to excessive exposure to foreign exchange risk. Foreign investors turned away from Asia. Higher US interest rates valued the dollar up, which in turn made Southeast Asia's exports less competitive. International investors withdraw credit; therefore, ASEAN governments increased interest rates and bought up excess domestic money using foreign reserves.
As a result, the governments' central banks started running out of foreign reserves because they want to keep the region look attractive. However, in 1997, Thailand's government decided to float the baht. Regional currencies depreciated so liabilities denominated in terms of foreign currency grew even more expensive in domestic terms. Entire economic sectors melted down and people fell into poverty. Stock markets and currencies rapidly devalued. In 2008, the bursting of the U. S. housing bubble which peaked in 2006 caused the values of security tied to U. S. eal estate pricing to plummet affecting financial institutions globally. The financial crisis was incurred because of a complex of government policies that encouraged home ownership. Government provided an easy access to loans to subprime borrowers and overvalue of sub-prime mortgages based on the theory that housing prices would continue to escalate. There is a lack of adequate capital holdings from banks and insurance companies to back the financial commitments. As a result, Banks were solvency and declines in credit availability which damaged investor confidence.
Economies worldwide slowed during this period and international trade declined. Since the U. S. is one of the largest economies in the world, it leads to a global crisis where Europe is now in a big trouble. U. S. has been trying very hard to recover where Greece and many countries in the European Community are experiencing difficulty. Although, our economy is relying on those regions, we are quite immune to their fallback. SET market capitalization is still growing despite some fluctuations from time to time in response to world events and news. Today SET market capitalization stands at THB 10. 8 trillion. From important events I point out above, there is a link between Thai economy and a world economy. If there was a world economic crisis, it would have effect in the SET index. We should learn from our experience and try to prevent the crisis beforehand. However, in the present, Thai economy is started to improve a bit by a bit because of a stability of political situation, which make investors feel more confidence. Moreover, in 2015, there is an AEC that will support Asian economy and the SET index will believe to be increased then. SET and the World Stock Exchange
Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) is considered to be very young given it was founded in 1975 comparing to the oldest stock exchange that was founded in 1602. The oldest is the Amsterdam Stock Exchange established by the Dutch East India Company for dealings in its printed stocks and bonds. It was subsequently renamed the Amsterdam Bourse and was the first to formally begin trading in securities. It is now known as Euronext Amsterdam after it merged with the Brussels Stock Exchange and the Paris Stock Exchange. Obviously, stock exchange has been around for a long time so as its developments.
Thus, SET still has a long way to go in developing itself and to educate Thai investor about hundreds of financial products available in the market. Comparing SET to other stock exchanges around the world, especially those with long establishment, we can see one big difference. Our record high market capitalization (THB 9. 44 trillion) is much smaller due to the fact that we only have 545 companies listed on the exchange. This basically means that there are fewer big companies in Thailand that are well-established and needed to raise fund through the capital market.
However, this number has been increasing steadily as our economy expands. Other than the size, we can say that SET has the operating system that meet the international standard, which enables trading to be efficient, equitable and fluid. However, the way each stock exchange operates internally is different and this has nothing to do with size. Established stock exchanges usually offer many financial products other than stock such as options, derivative, and bonds. These financial products have their own market where investor can trade such as TFEX or AFET.
Since these are relatively new products in Thailand and a few investors really know how to trade them correctly, SET is continuously holding session to educate Thai investor about these products. At present, the volume traded on these products is still low and not very liquid. Therefore, SET has been acting like a school to teach new investor in whatever product they want to trade. In Thailand, all markets are subsidiaries of SET except the Agricultural Futures Exchange of Thailand (AFET). SET and Asian Stock Exchanges
We already compared SET to the world stock exchange in the previous section. Now we will further compare SET to other stock exchange in East Asia. The oldest stock exchange in this region is the Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) which was established in 1878 followed by Stock Exchange of Hong Kong (SEHK) which was established in 1891. These two stock exchanges are among the top 10 of the world in term of market capitalization. Another stock exchange that was established early in this region is the Philippines Stock Exchange (PSE) in 1927.
Since the main economy has been in either the United States of America or Europe, the stock exchanges in those regions are established earlier than those in Asian countries. Later on, the economy was slowly shifting toward the Asian countries where labor cost is much lower and there are more natural resources to explore and exploit. Growing economy in Asian region bring many big multinational companies into the region as well as bringing in more capital and technologies for the local companies to expand their business in the region and in the global level. Stock exchanges then develop according to this economic shift.
Thailand started the initiative back in 1962 with the Bangkok Stock Exchange. Despite its well-intended foundation, the BSE was rather inactive and fail to succeed its mission. Later on, the Second National Economics and Social Development Plan were proposed and studies were conducted about the capital market in Thailand. By 1975, Securities Exchange of Thailand officially started trading before the name was changed to Stock Exchange of Thailand. Comparing the history of the stock exchange in the region, SET was founded at about the same time as the Singapore Exchange (1973).
According to the market development in this region, Thailand is among the second group of countries that has a formal stock exchange. Surprisingly, the youngest stock exchanges in the region are the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (2005), the Laos Stock Exchange (2011), and the Cambodia Securities Exchange (2011). As we already mentioned that the development goes hand in hand with the economic development of each country, SET is more clearly more developed comparing to the Vietnamese, Laos, or Cambodian counterpart. Comparison of SET, SGX and NYSE
After we have discussed about the general viewpoint of stock exchanges of Thailand and those of other countries, a more detailed information about different stock exchanges is showed in the comparison table below. Here, we choose to compare SET with Singapore Exchange and New York Stock Exchange in different aspects including trading hours, listing fee, numbers of listed companies, listing requirement and instruments. | SET| SGX| NYSE| Trading hours| 9. 30-T1(anytime from 9. 55-10 am)T1-12. 30: Trading12. 30-14. 00: BreakT2-16. 30: Trading16. 30-T3 (anytime from 16:35-16:40)17. 0- CloseTrading hours : approx. 3 hours| 9 am – 5 pm No breaks in between Trading hours : 8 hours| 9. 30 am – 4. 00 pm ESTTrading hours : 7. 5 hours| Listing fees| MainboardApplication fees: THB 50,000Listing Fee:Minimum: THB 100,000Maximum: THB 3,000,000Annual Fee:Minimum: THB50,000Maximum: THB 3,000,000Fees : Cheapest| Mainboard:Minimum: SGD 50,000Maximum: SGD100,000Annual Fee: Min: SGD 25,000Max: SGD 100,000Fees : Moderate| Mainboard: Min: USD100,000Max: USD150,000Annual fee:Min: $30,000Max; $85,000Fees : Most Expensive| Number of listing firms| 591| 774| More than 8000|

Index composition is the breakdown information of how much market capitalization is in each sectors such as agriculture, commerce, construction, properties, etc. We pick Singapore Exchange or SGX to be compared with SET because the two markets are quite related and both are in the same region. However, since Singapore is a more developed country, it will be interesting to see the market capitalization of each sector. Sector| Values (S$)| | SGX| SET| Agriculture| 27,517,506| 3%| 7,918,292. 00 | 7%| Commerce| 69,394,052| 8%| 20,358,152. 00 | 17%| Construction| 17,386,961| 2%| 9,114,948. 00 | 8%|
Electricity/Gas/Water| 610,896| 0%| 13,141,024. 00 | 11%| Finance| 99,576,196| 11%| 1,296,380. 00 | 1%| Manufacturing| 146,824,937| 17%| 13,525,888. 00 | 12%| Mining| 6,120,755| 1%| 12,524. 00 | 0%| Properties| 149,550,876| 17%| 11,592,832. 00 | 10%| Services| 197,412,201| 22%| 16,606,076. 00 | 14%| Etc| 171879479| 19%| 22,895,636. 00 | 20%| Total| 886,273,859| 100%| 116,461,752. 00 | 100%| From the table, we can see that SGX has the highest market capitalization in services, properties, and manufacturing, while for Thailand, the highest ones are commerce, services, and manufacturing.
Therefore, the sector that Singapore has high volume in is the properties sector. We can infer that properties sector contributes big flow of investment into the economy. Since in Thailand the property sector has recently been the sector with the highest growth rate, we believe that soon enough the properties sector will take a big stake in the SET market capitalization. Stock Index Comparison Stock index can be used to indicate the price movement of the entire stock exchange and roughly indicate the performance as well. Below are the world's top 10 stock exchange index year on year and the ASEAN+3's stock exchange index.
Top 10 Stock Exchange YoY Country| Index| Last| Monthly Chg| 12 Months Chg| Venezuela| IBVC| 403516| 30. 98%| 279. 78%| Pakistan| KSE100| 15813| 2. 38%| 36. 77%| Nigeria| NGSE30| 1269| 4. 09%| 36. 43%| Thailand| SET| 1282| -1. 31%| 31. 74%| Egypt| EGX30| 5793| -0. 49%| 30. 10%| Denmark| KAX| 400| -0. 37%| 25. 40%| Philippines| PSEi| 5405| 1. 10%| 24. 72%| Panama| Panama Stock Market| 397| 1. 25%| 24. 55%| Turkey| XU100| 70708| 6. 49%| 23. 96%| From the table, we can see that Thailand has the world's 5th highest growth in the past year of 31. 74%, and most of the top ten countries are emerging market.
ASEAN + 3 Countries Country| Index| Last| Monthly Chg| 12 Months Chg| Thailand| SET| 1282| -1. 31%| 31. 74%| Philippines| PSEi| 5405| 1. 10%| 24. 72%| Indonesia| JCI| 4339| 1. 80%| 13. 29%| Malaysia| KLCI| 1673| 2. 19%| 12. 87%| Singapore| STI| 3030| -1. 00%| 4. 26%| Japan| NKY| 8929| 0. 67%| -1. 34%| China| Shanghai SE Composite| 2066| -0. 96%| -16. 46%| From the table, Thailand has the highest stock index in the ASEAN+3 region for the past one year. Future move of SET So far, we have discussed about the history of the stock exchange at the global level as well as the regional level.
We have compared SET with other stock exchange as well as the Singapore Exchange. From there, we could see that, in general, stock exchanges in the United States and Europe are much more developed than those in the Asian region. Within the Asian region, SET is considered to be among second group of countries to have a formal stock exchange. However, our stock market seems to develop slower than the Singapore Exchange which was founded around the same time. Now, we would like to turn our discussion to how SET can develop itself to provide a better service to the members.
There has been an increasing trend in what we call "demutualization" for many not-for-profit organizations. Demutualization means a process by which a customer-owned mutual organization or co-operative changes legal form to a joint stock company. As part of the process, members of a mutual usually receive a windfall payout in the form of shares in the successor company, a cash payment, or a mixture of both. In other words, demutualization of the stock market basically means converting the stock exchange into a company and issue shares as IPO. Comparing this process to a normal business, we are istin

Petition Make Mu Legend better
Mario Antonio Nilsen 0
Make Mu Legend better
Mario Antonio Nilsen 0 Comments
We love Webzens game "Mu Legend" and therefore its with a heavy heart we feel the need to write this petition. We feel that MU is a great game that has a lot of potential, but that a lot of that potential is lost because of bad management.
We are asking for better information about the game and a bigger collaboration with the community. We feel that we get little to no information about when you can expect new content, when this content is already released in Korea. We see that a lot of the issues that we have trouble with, is already solved in Korea. We see people getting banned from Official discord channel when they voice their concerns of the game.
We ask everyone that wants this game to be as good as it can be to join this petition.
This article might seem harsh and criticising, but that is not the point. The point is to take initiative and help both european distributors and the Mu Legend development team to see what is important to their player base and customers. Because right now there's a universal agreement that every time there is a patch or update, except for the enchant system update, wich was great; We do not get changes remotely relevant to what anyone wants..
Need more incentives to play.
Balance of classes in pvp.
PVP skills/Number/items/more arenas.
DMG report.
*Rewards relevant to current stage of the game!
5V5, 10V10, 20V20
Training field where players can test their skills and build. You can have attack dummys that will register damage output. And everyone can attack each other without starting a duel.
PvP rewards.
PvP itself is lackluster, and does not see frequent updates the reward for investing time in it must be more appealing.
Rewards is not relevant or updated to the current state of the game.
For example, in the beginning of the game pvp was appealing to grow your wings, then it saw no play for months until PvP Token shop was updated with new offers(gems).
PvP que times and quality of match was greatly improved for a short period of time, as the rewards quickly again fell obsolete pvp does not see any play.
After the end of season one 125 people have entered a pvp match one time or more (27.06.2018) .
Solutions: PvP Rewards must be aligned to reflect the current patch of the game, with appealing rewards, example : soul xp, materials from new content like phantom cube and chilling embers as well as continually updating with new uniq offers that reflect the servers live patch.
Need webzen to actually follow the rules they set out. So we dont have 2 winners of a GvG.
In order to encourage guilds to play GvG and fight for territories (since this is why territories exists and were made I believe) you can give some rewards to the members of the guilds that owns a territory every week, that way you are promoting competition among the guilds. We already know the current benefits that a territory gives to the guild. However those benefits does not seem to be enough or at least is outdated for the current game content.
One way to persuade people to play GvG is to make some kind of training field. So people can come out with strategies and try out their strength among themselves before beting everything on a all or nothing fight..
The Rift: 7 rifts a day is a lot of content to get through, and killing goblins is the best way to get Zen. Even better than Luery's Vault. Overdrive works well as it is. There should be other ways of getting contribution points.
Fabrice Garden: In Korea you get the reward of this dungeon by logging in. It is a good dungeon for players starting out in the game, but it wouldn't have been visited by strong players if it weren't for the rewards that are essential to playing the game. I've only heard rumors of people dropping other pets than kobold or larva here, and it should be able to drop every pet that is in the game.
Blood Castle: this particular daily has an interesting concept, but the problem with it is very underwhelming rewards. At this point in the game, the rewards such as Hero Tokens and small magic gem pouches seem useless. Why cant you drop Heroic Crests here? For example if you do it under 2 minutes or increase the difficult of the monsters, it could give you heroic skill crest chest. This is just an example to make make obsolete content scale for stronger players.
Luery's Secret Vault: One gold goblin is better than 2-4 runs of Vault. Enough said. The most useless of them.
Gem Mine: Same as Luery's Secret Vault. 3-4 rifts provide with higher amount of magic gems then this daily. If you want to make it reliable, the amount of entrances per day should be infinite. If you need magic gems, you should be able to farm how much you need and not be time restricted.
Endless Tower: It is one of the best dungeons in the game. It is essential for character progression and rewarding for players.
Lupas Labyrinth:
Finally something positive, lupa's labyrinth is without question the best dungeon in the game it offers replay value in terms of grinding without heavy influence and layer after layer of rng.
You can play it as much as you want, and your character growth is rewarded in many different aspects. Common and rare crafting materials, Items, Experience, Gems.
As of today 27.06.2018 this is the only content in the game that you are able to farm, but without diversity and close to a year of running it also loses its touch.
It would be strongly advised to introduce more alternatives and diversity in content with the same functionality for character Growth.
Pit of The Dead: Finally a dungeon that we don't finish easy on highest difficulty. But the droprate of Aveteers cube and 1 entry per day makes this content more frustrating and demoralizing than fun. Also, on the entrance description its written that it generates up to Phantom cube. Even if it drops above level 3, this should be communicated to us or explained in the description. And information about which difficulty is opened should be shown to other players in party. Another thing is Phantom fragments. We now need 150 of them to craft a Phantom cube, which considering 1 entry a day, we need almost 50 days to craft just 1 and even then, there is a high chance of getting 3 mythic materials which can be easily bought from the merchant for magic gems. Imagine how many players there will be that actually worked hard to know the mechanics of bosses, positioning the mobs, and successfully completing it every time using resurrection stones and getting these. The few people who was lucky enough to get full sets in the first event, can be 50-200 days ahead of other players, with huge advantage both in pvp and pve and there is absolutely nothing you can do to catch up. The gap is to large.
The good idea that we suggest might be remove the mythic or set materials from drop and only leave set accessories and reduce the cost of Phantom cube. That will make this fair for everyone.
Epic: Sanctum of Dragon Knights:
Epic: Dragons Haven:
Mythic: Heath Mine:
Mythic: Pit Of Nightmares:
Mythic: Sky Temple
Fire Demon -Cave: So far the only place you can get heroic crests. Interesting dungeon, but the droprate of chilling embers is too low. Why cant you drop heroic crests in Blood Castle?
Ice Demon Cave:
Lupas Library:
Too many dailies.
Much of the content you play trough currently in mu legend is obsolete, yet necessary and gets repetitive. In the end you are left with a feeling of little choice in game and a heavy workload.
1. Should the number of dailies simply be reduced, and the rewards increased?
2. Endless entries for everything giving everyone free competition to play, and farm the content
you choose interests in to grow your character.
Another important notice, before finding a solution is that the servers/seasons never reset the progress of your character, so people are at different stages in the game.
When new content is finally added for example recently pit of the dead, and you can only do it once per day(8 minutes), players that has been in the game for a long time have nothing else to do.
Not enough content with re-play ability and rewarding in several different aspects of growing your character. The most appreciated content in MU Legend today is Lupa, because it's the only content in the game that offers a player any rewards at all if your character progress is already completed.
Some of these examples are mentioned in depths earlier in the article.
The variety of drops and various rng effects are to big from everything to transcendence stones to regular set items and new content. Some guys destroy more than 50 weapons(8months of farm) to get +10, while others get it on first try or had it since few weeks in game.
The new set accessories that came with pit of the dead, are seen on some players in full set, with huge advantage over you're competetors, while other players have to wait 50 days to try to roll another cube, assuming you complete the dungeon every single day!
This model does not pair well with entire daily system where your choice of how to progress your character is strict and limited. Are we supposed to play 4-6 months or longer, if you continue to flank on the set item drop(since it also drop jewel of bless, gems etc from the varies cubes) to catch up with the guys that got it from the first attempt which was a chain quest, not available more than once?
Remove the inevitable layer of layer of layer with rng, and give players options to hard farm whatever you personally need to grow your character.
Paper rock scissors, GM events find the GM. GM stress test event. WC prognosis event. Facebook Events, Golden Weekend
GM events: We like that the GMs try to make the game more interesting, but these events should be communicated better, and if the event is a stresstest for the servers, they should be open about this. Bad communication leads to angry players.
GM stress test event, spawning a lot of
No rewards from GM's if the event wasn't successful - even if 1 player participated in the event and reached the highest votes, the GM's should reward him what they have promised in the event rules! players should not run after GM's in all platforms to get the rewards he won!
Calendar - the same since first day game released.
One of the most common pins between successful games is an open dialog between users and developers, and we don't have any channels for communicating with developers at all.
Customers and playerbase in mu legend europe have no possibilities to communicate with the developers of the game, it feels like the people responsible for handling such requests is rather unmotivated to do so.
We are spending thousands of hours, and are I see a lot of great ideas to improve the quality of game. Further so, I often find the suggested changes or adjustments are already implemented in korea. It must be possible to make adjustments and modifications to content before it releases in europe, so we don't have to go through every single mistake or bug that was already solved in korea, again in eu/NA.
The Mu Legend team responsible for the european social community, often ignores service requests, delete comments or give inaccurate answers regarding technicalities in game, help requests or simply constructive feedback.
The service in game are also leaving players with a unprofessional concept, being able to craft, and buy products that are not available to consume or use on your character.
1. When the new pet was added, there was two of them with minor difference in the name for the different pet, where one was far superior to the other which is just a regular pet with a new appearance.
The only way you could know the difference was to actually buy the offer.
2. Legend shop was changed from only offering costumes available to your character, to offering costumes you cannot move or use on your own account.
3. Easy obtainable materials are added late in game to take advantage of inexperienced players. Making offers that are clearly a pure deception, offensive to loyal customers.
When I first saw the offer, I had to check my calendar for april's fool.
Intended or not it leaves player with the feeling
4. This is a big one, the big script that enabled players :
- Enable you to use all 6 autoattack - 1 hander and 2 hander simultaniasly ( and get mana for it)
- Enable you to use all 17 skills simultaneously( as long as its off cdr)
-Cancel attack animation/cast animation so you just hover
-Autoaim.
This is one of the biggest exploits I saw in a game in many years.
On several occasions over a period of months!
When trying to communicate the unfair advantage with webzen, I saw users get the following response :
"we are against the bot, so if you see people using them, you can report them and we will take actions about it. In the meantime, we keep working on ways to block them.
Which gives a unprofessional, hostile and non caring impression to your community.
5. Season end was pushed on account of a holiday in Korea. This made Territory Wars end one week later than it was supposed to. On some servers the season ended with more than one winner on account of the way Webzen Europe decided to solve the issue.
6. Notice of maintenance has several times been without notice.
7. Sometimes updates and news that could be shared with entire player base are posted in news section for specific languages in discord, nowhere else to be found. Not in english general, facebook or any other medium.
PETS: Having one pet that is twice as strong as the others, makes all other pets obsolete, And having so much of your power connected to the pet means you lose a lot of power when leveling other pets. We need it to work the way it does in Korea, where you can grow pets while you have another equipped. This is also the way artifacts work, probably for the same reason. We would like more of the pets being viable in the game so it is interesting to use all pets in different situations.
REWARDS: Reward for party picture event (facebook) gave a reward of one entry to pit of the dead. Reward of winning Territory wars season one was a mount for 30 days (should have been lifetime. Spellbinder got 100% mount just for leveling to 65.) and 5m magic gems (which is a good reward). The rewards were given for winning the last fight, not for being on top through the season, which doesn't really make sense. It would be better if the winners were the ones that were best overall, not best one weekend. We also had issues with players cheating and using bugs in the game to win the matches.
Rewards with expiration date, like wings and costumes. Timer should only count down the time you have the item equipped. Not from the moment you accept the reward for example from "Calendar". It would be nice to be able to switch back and forth between different costumes and wings to differentiate yourself from other players. Right now everybody uses the same costumes at the same time because it's the only ones you can buy at Legend Shop.
Most compensation boxes is only more entrys to dungeons. Change it up from time to time, maybe pet boxes, imprints and so on.
SEASONS: Seasons is a good addition to the game, but we need information about when the new season starts at the latest when the old season ends.
BALANCING OF CLASSES: Dark Lord has been the strongest class since the start of the game. We can see through patch notes that Whisperer gets much needed attention, but players have been left in the dark for almost one full year.
But minor tweaks and attempts of balance have not been seen at all.
LEGEND SHOP:
Hero Token Bundle 300 redzen for 100 Tokens. Sale on Pets the week before release of new Pet. 500 redzen for extraction Hammer. No way of buying imprints with bound redzen. Bound redzen shouldn't have any less value than the fact that it can't be used in Auction House. Releasing 2 pets with similar name and identical appearance except for colors, where one is twice as strong as the other, but is advertised as "a little bit stronger". This pet that is twice as strong as any other is no longer available for new players because the event has ended.
RELEASE OF NEW CONTENT:
New content is always fun, but with the current system of daily missions, and the phase content is released, the new content is already obsolete before it is released.
All content need to be kept up to date and players deserve progression updates and some kind of estimated schedule for the status of the game.
MAKING THE GAME PROFITABLE:
Selling Costumes and Wings that only gives the player a unique look works in every other game. Why not here? Make a lot of them available at all times, and only hold back some for special events and rewards.
Prices in Legend Shop is so high that most players avoid the shop unless it is absolutely necessary. Lower the prices and volume will rise.
Keep your community happy. A happy community wants to keep a game alive and have no problem paying for this to happen. Be careful not to be too "pay to win" because this removes a lot of motivation from the players. Make money on cosmetics, not stat increases. Listen to your community. Run events and follow through on promises. Sell pets with same stats but cool cosmetics for redzen.
Selection of cards in lupa's labyrinth 6 does not reflect the choice of card you pick.
We see old bugs coming back again and again.
Bosses, animation/no dmg/ instant dmg/cooldown etc
All skills bug.
Invisible skills and mobs.
There is a lot of bugged skills but it's important that the most used skills gets attention, a couple of never used / inferior skills has been fixed but its not helpful.
Attack order, passive doesn't work, periodically restore hp for party members (doesn't work)
Bloodfest, can be canceled mid animation
Gravity deflection, Charge / animation bug, deals damage before animation is cast at the same instant you cast the skill, making it impossible to avoid unlike any other skill in the game.
Bombardment/Other long animation skills does not make damage at all if you are effected by any kind of crowd control during the cast. However the animation will finish and the skill will be on cooldown.
Character randomly freezes for uncertain period of time (roughly 10 seconds) cannot move,use skills it occurs when you are hitted by CC and when the CC ends.
Hitting stealthed targets does not show the DPS done to them example - ( Hitting a warmage while he has stealth with a monarchs touch he gets pulled but no DPS number shows)
Spellbinder barriers still shines through invisible targets.
Tips to improve playability/Summary:
Keep old content relevant by tweaking difficulties/rewards.
Shared Soul Points across account
Ability to share all content account wide.
Drop Rate increase for players who don't get drops, then resets.
Open battleground where anyone can enter to do PVP.
Expert skills can be changed anywhere except in dungeons, and at no cost.
Preset skill and items, like diablo locker.
Shorter wait time for reward in blood castle
Potions should only count downwards when in dungeon.
You can drop set items for other classes in boxes (for example in lupa library 6, these need to be account bound, not character bound.

A Bunny Pajama Poncho – Sewing Projects | BurdaStyle.com
A Bunny Pajama Poncho
Inspired by the kids' pajamas in Pita-Ten, this would be a lot cuter on a little kid, but I made one for me, because it's very warm and easy to sleep in. It's just a cape with the front sewed up, sleeves added in and (of course) bunny ears. You could also make furry ones, with maybe cat ears and a tail, or bear ears, perhaps? It used to have pompoms on it and all sorts, but I found it easier to sleep in a streamlined version. You will notice it's a bit grubby from being slept in- that's the drawback of a pastel colour like this.
Nov 2, 2009, 09.45 PMby misssylver
That is great! Maybe you could do a tutorial because I would love to make one for my nieces!
Dec 12, 2009, 12.40 PMby Jenny Wren
Unfortunately difficult, as I modified a commercial pattern to make it. In brief, though, I took a pattern for a cape and cut some sleeve holes in it, set in some sleeves and sewed it up the front. The rest is up to you- this thing really is a blank canvas. I put bunny ears on mine, but you could do cat ears or bear ears and make it in different colours. I think the primary concern is it being comfortable, though, so if you were going to make it out of fur you'd have to line it. This is just fleece, so it didn't need lining. Pompoms, embroidery, sequins- it's up to you. I think if I had nieces and nephews I'd be making these all day long, but I just slouch around the house in this.
Oct 31, 2009, 06.16 AMby lynzlyles
I like this! i just made the max costume from Where the Wild Things Are for a halloween costume for a friend, very simalar. Im impressed on how those ears are stand up!
Oct 30, 2009, 10.35 PMby misssylver
It's gorgeous! How did you get the ears to stand up?
Nov 1, 2009, 07.53 PMby Jenny Wren
Doubled the interfacing and pulled the ears through the hood a bit so there were loops on either side of my head. This also gives the hood a nice shape.

Hampshire county councillor who broke rules resigns from council cabinet citing pressures of work - HampshireLive
Councillor Sean Woodward has resigned with immediate effect
14:14, 14 DEC 2020
Updated 14:27, 14 DEC 2020
A long-standing councillor who broke his own council's code of conduct has resigned from the cabinet citing the pressures of work.
Cllr Seán Woodward, a county councillor for more than a decade and leader of Fareham Borough Council, has resigned from the cabinet of Hampshire County Council (HCC) with immediate effect.
He has cited personal reasons and pressure of work as the reasons for his resignation. However, it comes just days after he was found to have breached the councillor's code of conduct when dealing with a new grant scheme he set up after becoming a cabinet member in 2018.
A panel found that cllr Woodward had "compromised his position" after an allocation of a £15,000 grant was made to the Rockets Children's Motorcycle Display Team.
That came following a complaint that had been made against the councillor, who represents Fareham and Sarisbury on the county council.
The allocation of funds was made despite cllr Woodward having a declared interest in the Rockets due to one of its members working for him.
That interest led to the decision over the allocation being handed to another councillor, though the panel investigated claims council officers felt under pressure from him, with further allegations that he helped the Rockets write the application.
Cllr Woodward denied the allegations, but the independent investigation found that his actions "constituted a breach" of the code of conduct.
Speaking on the resignation HCC leader cllr Keith Mans thanked cllr Woodward for his support.
He added: "Earlier today, I accepted the formal resignation of Cllr Seán Woodward from his role on Cabinet. I wish to thank Sean for his support to my Cabinet.

2 Syrian Towns Reshaped by Siege | Majalla
Sunday,October 21, 2018
2 Syrian Towns Reshaped by Siege
07 September,2018
One morning in July, the residents of Fuah and Kfarya got word that it was time to leave.
"I didn't believe it at first," said Jamal Faour, 33, who works for the Syrian army as a photographer. "We no longer believed anything."
For more than three years, the towns — whose residents support the government — have lived under a siege imposed by rebels in Idlib province fighting to topple Syrian President Bashar Assad. Evacuations had been promised before, only to be called off.
But on July 18, a total of 121 buses pulled into Fuah and Kfarya. The 6,900 townsfolk, carrying little more than suitcases, crammed on board.
As the convoy trundled through rebel-held territory, people on the sides of the streets lobbed rocks and shoes.
When the ragged evacuees finally reached Al Eis, the last rebel-controlled area before entering the government-held city of Aleppo, an al-Qaida member carrying an AK-47 entered one bus and launched into a tirade.
"You have no place in Idlib, you rawafidh!" Abu al-Yaqthan al-Masri shouted in a scene captured on video and posted on social media by pro-rebel outlets.
The term he used is a slur against Shiite Muslims — and it was a telling indication of the division wrought by seven years of civil war.
The conflict started as part of the "Arab Spring" movement pushing for democratic reform across the region. But it morphed into a sectarian conflict as outside powers got involved and turned Syria into a microcosm of the region's politics and religious strife.
Fuah and Kfarya became trapped in the middle.
Most of the 40,000 residents were Shiites, which made them a minority in their predominantly Sunni province. Before the war, the religious differences never amounted to much.
"They would marry from our families, we would marry from theirs," recalled Faour, who lived in Fuah but worked as a computer teacher in the nearby Sunni-dominated city of Binnish.
But after so long under siege — their residents used as bargaining chips in the battle between Assad and the myriad groups trying to overthrow him — the two towns are deeply and painfully divided from the communities surrounding them.
In peace, members of Assad's Alawite sect — an offshoot of Shiite Islam — had a significant presence in Syria's security and intelligence service. But much of the governance and major business interests remained in the hands of the Sunni majority, 74 percent of the population.
Whereas Idlib and other parts of northern Syria became bastions for anti-Assad forces, Fuah and Kfarya remained firmly under government control. Many residents enlisted in "popular committees," citizen brigades that were trained and funded by Iran and the Lebanese Shiite party and armed group Hezbollah.
The split between the towns and the neighboring communities deepened in 2015, when the Army of Conquest, an alliance of Al Qaeda and other hard-line Sunni groups, drove government troops from most of Idlib and encircled Fuah and Kfarya.
The rebels — using a "starve and surrender" tactic the government had long employed — vowed to massacre the 17,000 Shiites still there.
Across pro-government areas in Syria, protests spread demanding the civilians of Fuah and Kfarya be saved.
Iran brokered a solution that fall, after Hezbollah mounted its own siege on the rebel-held Damascus suburbs of Zabadani and Madaya, both of which are predominantly Sunni.

Working with Turkish and Qatari intermediaries, Iranian officials held a secret meeting in Istanbul with representatives from the Army of Conquest. United Nations officials were there as observers, according to a high-placed Western humanitarian worker in Syria. There was no Syrian government presence.
The deal was known as the Four Towns Agreement. The Army of Conquest agreed to spare Fuah and Kfarya. In exchange, Hezbollah agreed to spare Zabadani and Madaya.
And going forward, the number of people allowed to leave one set of towns — and the amount of aid going in — would be matched in the other set.
The Syrian government began sending 20 planes every month over Fuah and Kfarya to drop bread, fuel, ammunition and other supplies. But the deliveries were never enough. The U.N. described the situation in the besieged towns as "catastrophic," with civilians "trapped in a cycle of daily violence and deprivation."
As the government shut down rebel enclaves across the country, it granted the militants safe passage to rebel-held areas of Idlib, sometimes in exchange for the evacuation of civilians in Fuah and Kfarya.
The transfer deals often went awry, buffeting those civilians between the threat of death at the hand of the jihadis and the promise of evacuation or a government advance that would break the siege.
One deal, brokered in 2017, was supposed to evacuate all four towns. But a suspected rebel car bomb killed more than 100 residents from Fuah and Kfarya as they were about to enter government-held areas.
Many had given up hope of ever leaving, according to Zain Abideen Taleb, a 54-year-old lawyer. After his wife and their ill child left as part of a swap in 2016, he told her that he probably would never see her again and she should assume he would die fighting.
"We watched all these rebels leave in Homs, Aleppo, Zabadani, Madaya and Ghouta," Taleb said, listing the names of onetime rebel enclaves. "The militants were always calling us hostages, a government weak spot they wouldn't give up at any price."
The Sunni jihadis in July began to mass for a large attack on Fuah and Kfarya.
The impending offensive was the impetus for a deal to evacuate the two towns, according to a jihadi commander in a video interview with pro-opposition outlet Zaman al-Wasl.
"The Iranians communicated with us and said they would exchange 1,500 people in regime prisons and some of the jihadi warriors," said the commander, who used the nom de guerre Abu Abed.
On the day of the evacuation, when the buses finally began rolling away, the dominant emotion in the towns was relief.
"Does anyone leave their house, memories and land and be happy?" Taleb said. "But it got to the point where we wished to go."
In the aftermath of the evacuation, the jihadis blitzed into the towns. They looted, desecrated Shiite shrines and welcomed Sunnis who had been displaced by government campaigns.
They renamed the towns for two caliphs revered by Sunnis: Farooq and Siddiq.
The evacuation placed all of Idlib in the hands of the anti-government forces. But it also cleared the way for the Syrian government and its Iranian and Russian allies to launch an assault on the province in hopes of taking it back and consolidating power in the country's northwest.
That has given the former residents of Fuah and Kfarya — who are scattered across Syria — hope that they might soon return and rebuild their lives.
Taleb and his 48-year-old brother, Yahya, said they would have no trouble living near Sunnis in Idlib.
"Things will return as they were. … In any society where you have bad people in control this is what will happen," Yahya said by phone.
But Mohammad Hassan Taqi, a Fuah resident who had headed the towns' crisis committee, was less certain.
"We'll get the towns back, but living there will be almost impossible," he said.
"There were victims … there will be revenge. It will be 10 years until things go back to as they were."

Any ranch as big as the JA, will have good and bad pastures. The JA has an abundance of both. I am sure that Goodnight picked this ranch because of the canyons and the protection they offer in the winter. There are signs that the ranch had many more springs years ago. However, water in the Palo Duro canyon and the basin of the Prairie Dog Fork of the Red River has a high mineral content (cowboys call it gyppy). Cattle learn to drink it, but it is bitter to the taste and will purge your system.
The most prominent feature of the ranch is Palo Duro Canyon on the southwest; however, in the center of the ranch there is a large plain. To the east are the rolling hills of Mulberry and Halls Creek. To the north is the Caprock.
A ranch is an asset that must be maintained. In addition to practicing pasture resting and rotation, the JA is trying to control mesquite and cedar through grubbing spraying and controlled burns. It is our belief that the increase in cedar and mesquite is largely due to fire suppression for the past 125 years. While we do not believe we can live with indiscriminate burning, we do believe in controlled burning. Unfortunately, burns are dangerous and they always scare us.
Beverly: One of the most frustrating pastures to gather on the ranch, Beverly has deep draws running the length of it. Even horseback, cowboys have to work to cross the draws. They are tributaries of Battle Creek (named after one of the last Indian battles of the Panhandle), which cuts across the southeast corner. The pasture has thick mesquite and cactus. It also has great grass in sandy loam and shallow redland soils.
Bull Run: I never learned how to utilize this pasture. The canyons are deep and the water is sparse. Sometimes I think we should forget it, but it has 7,000 acres. Before I came, it was used for cows. The problem is that you have to drive the cows and calves up the road out of the canyon to brand and many of the baby calves have a hard time making it. Getting the weaned calves out of the canyon is a challenge, as well.
We ran yearlings from March to July (when the blood sucking cedar flies attack the cattle) and then moved them to South Plains. If we got a pound a day, we feel fortunate.
Campbell Creek: We utilized Campbell Creek as we utilized Bull Run. It is lower on the Bull Run Creek and has some flats where the canyon runs into the Prairie Dog Fork of the Red River. Tom Blasingame lived at the Campbell Creek camp until his death.
Cottonwood: A gently rolling pasture that was completely taken over with mesquite before being sprayed in 1995. Prickly pear is also a problem in this pasture.
Churchill: Churchill would be one of the best pastures on the ranch if it were not covered with large mesquite. Even with the mesquite, it produces lots of grass. It is where the county road turns south towards Brice off the county road between headquarters and Clarendon.
Griffin Hills: When I arrived at the JA, the cattle had a well deserved reputation for wildness. We were gathering home raised heifers from Griffin Hills and they were pretty spooky. We got them through the mesquite on the north end of the pasture, but a batch of them turned and broke back over the cedar covered Griffin Hills. I headed out at a run through the cedars to head them. I finally got them turned and headed back east along the south fence. They were trotting along and I wanted to keep them on the fence; so, I loped up to let them know not to turn back to the north. Going through a bunch of weeds, my horse Dean stepped in a hole. I was thrown forward as he threw his head back to balance. His head was tougher than my teeth. Two of the front ones broke off. Dean didn't fall and we kept the cattle on the fence. Clint Esler repaired the damage.
Griffin Hills is where the archeologists found the most evidence of the Indian Battles. One can still see where the army dug foxholes along the hills. The Indians were moving across the hills with the army in hot pursuit. After my experience with the heifers, I have great respect for the army.
Lower Plains:In 2004, we grubbed Lower Plains with a track excavator and it is now a beautiful rolling plains pasture. On the south end are the Suckerrod Pens, built to service Vat, Roosevelt, Cottonwood and Lower Plains and to replace the old Vat pens.
Mulberry: Mulberry Creek runs through the ranch and provides water for five rough Juniper infested pastures.
East and West Blasingame: West Blasingame is separated from East Blasingame by the canyon ridge. We run yearlings in these pastures for the spring and early summer. Cattle are pushed out of West Blasingame by the cedar flies and cross over the canyon rim.
North and South Plains: On the northeast corner of the ranch are deep hardland plains pastures on the top of the Caprock. They produce some of the best gains on the ranch. Small playa lakes cover these pastures. In 1998, we burned South Plains to try to control the encroaching mesquite.
Summerfield: is another canyon pasture and we use it as we use Bull Run and Campbell Creek. It is a little better because there is a broad flat area half way down, we call the park.
Walsh: is a small pasture to the southeast of headquarters. In 2000, we tried to address the cedar problem with a controlled burn.
Normally, the rock pens at the headquarters are used just for horses; however, on a cold windy day the cowboys used it to stay out of the wind. Rhett Cauble prepares a loop.
West Piercy: In 1999, the ranch just completed grubbing West Piercy. It is a flat, hardland soil pasture to the west of the Battle Creek pens. The ranch uses it to watch cattle closely after they first come in from the South East.

With the ever increasing use of our outdoor spaces, the use of pots as a growing solution is becoming far greater than in previous times. The opportunity is right to offer some hints on how to successfully manage this form of gardening. Probably most important is to decide what you actually want the pots and the plants to achieve. Are they to be used for growing vegetables and some annual colour? Maybe a perennial and a shrub? Or, in some cases, a screening plant to hide a shed or some unsightly part of the landscape? The answers to these questions will help you decide on the type and size of the pot, the actual plant to be used and how then to succeed with the selection of the plant and its ongoing maintenance. The pot’s size is the most crucial selection as a pot too small for the plant will cause it to dry out quickly, blow over in the wind and not contain sufficient nutrient to keep the plant healthy.
There are many types of pots from plastic, terracotta and glazed; and for some short term vegetable growing, the use of a polystyrene vegetable box can be used. Generally glazed pots are the best. There are many colours that suit the colour scheme of the home and these pots have a better moisture holding capability than other styles. Terracotta pots are very stylish but have a tendency to dry out so if this style is to be used, seal the inside of the pot with a terracotta sealant. Plastic and polystyrene pots are best used where the pot is to be used for the short term as they tend to break down under strong sunlight. A useful hint when selecting a pot is to use a straight sided or V shaped pot so the plant can be easily removed. A pot which is belly shaped is nigh on impossible to repot without causing serious disturbance to the root system. After the decision has been made about the pot the next decision is to what to plant. Consider the eventual size of the plant remembering the larger the plant grows the larger the pot should be. A plant that is to be used for screening should be in a pot that will also act as an anchor in a windy site. Too small a pot will simply just blow over and in most cases smash. If you are growing annuals, herbs and vegetables, a shallow pot will suffice as they are all generally shallow rooting and do not need a great depth of soil.
Next comes to what type of potting mix to use. In most cases a premium potting mix with some slow release fertiliser included and some water storage crystals is the best. There a many types of mixes out there and I can guarantee that the cheaper the mix is to purchase, the lesser quality it is. For plants that are going to be in the pots for an extended time, I suggest a premium potting mix. If you are growing vegetables and annual flowers you can use a cheaper mix but you will need to fertilise and water more often as these mixes do not have any moisture or nutrient holding capabilities. These cheaper mixes will be of no benefit to the plants after a season or two. Do a lift test to ascertain whether you are getting a quality mix: the lighter the weight the poorer the quality. The lighter weighted bags usually consist of tan bark and are either 20 or 25 litres against the 30 litres of a premium bag.
Watering and fertilising is of absolute importance. Vegetables and annual flowers will need watering several times a week and fertilising every ten days or so with a liquid fertiliser like a fish or seaweed based fertiliser. Shrubs and longer living plants also need watering and fertilising on a regular basis although some fertilising can include a specific slow release fertiliser for the particular group of plants you have used. Do this three or four times a year as well as the liquid food on a monthly basis. During the cooler months this can be cut back as the plants are not actively growing. Just a few other things to remember: from time to time check that the drainage holes haven’t become blocked by roots; rotate the pots to get an even all over growth and prune when necessary. Good luck with your efforts. From us at the Spires Nursery we wish you all a safe and loving Christmas and holiday season.

Galactic Headquarters Earth Base The Galactic Headquarters Earth Base was established under Moose Jaw Heights after the original was destroyed by Maximus (Technically, it was Noah and Minimus who destroyed it, as a ball they were playing with hit the firing button for the death ray that destroyed the HQ seconds before Maximus could press it).
The new base is equipped with flashtubes that enable Betty and her crew to be summoned to Headquarters from any spot via special warp holes that lead to them. It also includes a lab for X-5 to work on experiments, a new office for DeGill, and even a training space for Spindly Tam.

Perfect staff - Great hotel - Review of Pearl Hotel Waikiki, Honolulu - TripAdvisor
Perfect staff - Great hotel - Review of Pearl Hotel Waikiki
Perfect staff - Great hotel
We stayed here as the first stop on our honeymoon. Being in Honolulu and eager to spend a good deal of our time out and about, we were not fussed about staying in a fancy hotel. However, this place really did exceed our expectations. On arrival we were lucky enough to get upgraded to a very comfortable and clean spacious room and we felt right at home immediately.
The staff were some of the most friendly and helpful that we encountered throughout our whole trip to Hawaii. They never failed to greet us on the way in and out of the hotel, and were very helpful with all requests. They were also happy to make a tour booking for us on another island which really helped us out.
It is in a great location - minutes from the beach or a quick stroll through the International Marketplace to find yourself on the main strip of Waikiki. While not the fanciest hotel in Honololu, it provides everything you could need and I would stay again.More

Excellent & Good Value Accomodation!
My friend and i just returned from a 9 day stay at Aqua Pearl and we can honestly say it was fantastic.
The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They assisted us with all our needs. The hotel has 24 hour security and reception.
The housekeeping was great, the hotel was always clean.
We were on the 7th floor in a Jr Suite with a Balcony, room was large with 2 double beds and had a good sized balcony.
5 mins walk to the beach, literally one block away.
The hotel is central to many restaurants, shops and clubs. It was perfect for us!
Room Tip: Make sure you select a room with a balcony. Higher floors are quieter.

Modest hotel, good value, pleasant experience
Just off Kuhio Ave at 415 Nahua, the modest entrance to the Aqua Waikiki Pearl may raise doubts about the wisdom of one's choice, especially if your primary reason for choosing was price.
However, the very friendly staff welcomes you and we had no difficulty checking in. Our room on the 8th floor was clean, cool, comfortable, well lit. Had a minifridge, microwave and coffee maker. We did not have a lanai, but did not feel the lack of it.
All staff was friendly and accomodative. Every question we had was answered and we felt like we were viewed as welcome guests. We had already arranged all our tours, etc., but the concierge was very friendly and we saw her helping another couple who seemed to appreciate her service.
Very convenient location, across from the International Marketplace and practically next door to an organic vegetable store.
We had booked another room for our daughter & son-in-law. Theirs was upgraded to one with a lanai.
Check out was a snap.
Computer in lobby for those who don't carry their own.
Wireless in lobby only, but if you carry a wire you can use it in your room and the wired internet access was great.
No complaints about the Pearl. A modest hotel that gave good value and proved to be a pleasant experience.
Room Tip: There is a charge for the fitness center--but who comes to Waikiki to use a fitness center? Go to the beach already...

Aloha Jazz Mom,
Thank you for your review on our friendly staff and comfortable clean rooms. As a great value for many guests, the Aqua Waikiki Pearl is a wonderful option and we appreciate that you recognized that. Mahalo for choosing our hotel!

Ok so im in Waikiki on business so wasnt too worried about where I stayed so long as it had internet access and was clean and in Waikiki. The staff here are lovely as with all the Aqua hotels I couldnt fault their politeness and helpfulness. My room was very spacious if not a little over the top for the amount of furniture there was. Having said that it met my needs. For a budget hotel it was ok. After all what do you do in your hotel room............. sleep and wash! I'd stay here again although it can be a little noisy due to the fact its so close to a main road. My only complaint would be the cleaner could do with dusting and hoovering a little more often.

I am glad that you found our staff both helpful and polite. As you know, you never get a second chance at a first impression. Some people feel that the rooms are a little too large, but as least you were comfortable. We offer a lot of value and are one of Waikiki's best kept secrets.
The Housekeeping Department will be notified today to make sure that they are dusting and vacuuming every room.

Cases Targanta Therapeutics: Hitting a Moving Target
Educator Copy Revision Date: Jul 17, 2009
Product number:709002-PDF-ENGLength: 24p
This case explores regulatory, product testing, and business strategy at Targanta Therapeutics, a biotech company preparing its first new drug application to the FDA. In October 2007, Mark Leuchtenberger, president and CEO of Targanta - which has just held a successful IPO - weighs options for the approximately ten month review period after the company submits to the Food and Drug Administration. The case reviews Targanta's origins and "de-risking" of oritavancin, an antibiotic therapy for drug-resistant infections that was first invented at Eli Lilly and then spun out to InterMune before Targanta acquired it in late 2005. To highlight the impact of regulatory policy on business strategy the case then describes a set of choices facing the firm, including staffing a marketing and sales group, carrying out additional clinical testing to expand the approved indications, applying for European market approval, or keeping funds in reserve in the event that the FDA requests further data.
To explore the impact of regulatory policy on business strategy and to understand interconnections among product development and testing, meeting shifting regulatory requirements, and negotiating investor relations in a make-or-break situation.

One of the worst examples isn't even Inspired: he's a Clockstopper whose presence near a community causes a variety of unpleasant effects; its technological development rapidly degrades to the point where language-- not just spoken language, but body language-- no longer works; normal people go from being normal, to Luddite hippies, to savage cavemen, to unthinking animals incapable of any meaningful interaction with any other being before they become catatonic and die off; and the technology of eating fails or something similar where there are no survivors and no way to determine what happened. The Clockstopper in question is fully aware that it is his fault and enjoys watching the process and mocking them. His stats and powers make it near impossible to kill him or even think more complicated thoughts then blinking your eyes. Small wonder he is considered the anti-Christ by people who use orphanages as a source of "materials".
Crazy Awesome: Any awesomeness in the setting will likely be crazy by default. That goes for events as well as characters.
Critical Research Failure: These sorts of theories are the principles on which Wonders supposedly operate. Many Geniuses realize this is not how things actually work. Fortunately, belief in their explanatory theory isn't as important as the fact that they supply an explanatory theory and build their devices accordingly.
Genius Bonus: Appropriately enough, there are plenty of references to be enjoyed by science and history buffs alike.
Jerkass Woobie: A number of antagonists. Lemuria is full of Geniuses who were simply snapped up before they learned what Mania really is, and former Peers who just couldn't live with knowing they're crazy anymore.
Special mention goes to Seattle's Argentine St. Croix, who, extramarital affair and killing her Stalker with a Crush aside, lived a relatively blameless life prior to her Breakthrough, and never wanted anything to do with Inspiration in the first place. Oh, and one of her sons is in a coma that even mad science can't fix. The other one publicly disowned her in a fashion cruel enough to shock some of his new allies.
Even Clockstoppers are sort of pitiable. It's not their fault they're spite-fueled avatars of ignorance. Probably.
Nightmare Fuel: Some Geniuses deliberately style their Wonders to be creepy looking, whether to intimidate observers or just because they like the look of it.
Not to mention that, being a bit odd, Staunens can get like this:
"So I spend a lot of time staring at the sky, and not looking at your face and thinking about squirrels."
The Woobie: Three out of five Catalysts (Grimm, Neid, Klagen) are likely to involve a personal tragedy. In addition, all Catalyzations are generally traumatic; a person who becomes a Genius is a person who has been driven insane. It's probable that there are many, many Inspired Woobies.
Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: The Cold Ones may qualify; they exist through no fault of their own, and all they want is to escape their entropic hell. Unfortunately, that would probably have disastrous effects on the rest of the timeline.
Dr. Keiko Takamori, a Genius aiding them, is one as well. She's been orphaned, raised by callous relatives, made into a Beholden by a Phenomenologist, seen said Phenomenologist killed, and then she catalyzed and was sucked right back into Inspired society.
Dr. Takamori: Cannot you pity [the Cold Ones]? How hungry they are? Is your empathy so limited?
Problematic tropes applying to wonders: Edit
Game Breaker: Any Rank 5 wonder is easily this against lesser powers. This is deliberate.
Apokalypsi: Omniscience, on any subject you can think to ask about.
Automata: You can create full characters, in bulk. It doesn't take them long to become Geniuses loyal to you.
Be nice to them, though.
Don't forget the ability to make a Wonder that functions as a Wonder-factory, which itself creates Wonder-factories. You'll have no control over them, but who cares?
Epikrato: Make an unlimited number of people your slaves, alter their memories so that they always loved you, and never suffer another Derangement again.
Exelixi: Not really a gamebreaker but you can bring back the dead. Do it fast enough and it's not even dangerous.
It really says something when immortality and true resurrection are considered underpowered in a New World of Darkness game.
Although it is difficult, all you need is a trace of well-perserved DNA. The resulting Archived Army will be cool, if not entirely stable.
Katastrofi: Doomsday devices; the rulebook's sample 5-dot weapon is a cannon that can demolish whole city blocks at a time, described as "some silly thing a Genius might make while trying to take over the world again".
Metaptropi: Permanent invisibility to the 5 mundane senses and magical detection for only 6 bound mania.
Invisibility to taste is probably unnecessary.
Prostasia: Actually not much of a gamebreaker at all.
But the fact that Prostasia can provide insulation against Havoc at any level makes it endlessly useful. Gotta love form-fitting force fields.
Skafoi: Time travel for fun and profit
Also, personal temporal distortion devices. It's like Celerity, except on the top of the Skill Tree instead of the bottom.
If you combine Assembly Line 5 with any of the above, well...God Mode
A theoretical Game Breaker within the setting itself is the Axiom Pankosmoi, AKA Apekrina, AKA the Needle Grail. If it's real, this Axiom could prevent Havoc, enhance Inspiration, and even generate/harvest Mania. There is no evidence that Pankosmoi actually exists, but mastering it would be tantamount to achieving godhood.

So the gemara says, “Yes! In the right place, revenge is very great.” Gedolah nekamah, says the Gemara. As great as de’ah is in increasing your knowledge of Hashem, so is nekamah, it accomplishes the same thing! By seeing that Hashem is a Keil nekamos, that He’s a Lord of vengeance; that’s one of the most valuable ways for a person to acquire daas. It’s right between the two names of Hashem because revenge is how you get close to Hashem!
Now, I know that words like these won’t settle easily on American ears, but you’re hearing now a very important yesod and I’m not going to let go of it. Every day we say the following words – it’s in the long hodu before davening: הִנָּשֵׂא שֹׁפֵט הָאָרֶץ – Be elevated, O’ Judge of the world (Tehillim 94:2). It’s a tefillah – we’re praying that Hakodosh Boruch Hu should be elevated in this world.
Now, Hashem doesn’t need anybody to elevate Him — He’s elevated just well without your prayers. So what’s this tefilla that He should be elevated? What it means is that He should be elevated in the minds of men. That’s what we want – that He should be raised up in our minds.
Now, how does Hashem become elevated in the minds of men? So we think we know how to exalt Him. I know what I would say: הִנָּשֵׂא שֹׁפֵט הָאָרֶץ – How do we elevate You, O’ Judge of the world? שְׂאוּ מָרוֹם עֵינֵיכֶם וּרְאוּ מִי בָרָא אֵלֶּה – By lifting our eyes up high; by looking around and contemplating, ‘Who made all of this!’ (Yeshaya 40:26).
I would say that we exalt Hashem by viewing all of His miracles in nature. You’d have to be a moron not to see the greatness of Hakodosh Boruch Hu in nature. And the evolutionists and the academicians, those who reject the idea of a Creator, are morons! Look around and you see Hashem; and the more you look, the more Hashem is exalted.
But no, says Dovid. That’s not the way to uplift the glory of Hashem. That’s important too, but it’s not everything. Now, listen well to his words. הִנָּשֵׂא שֹׁפֵט הָאָרֶץ – How do we see the the ruler of the world raised up in this world? Do you know how? הָשֵׁב גְּמוּל עַל גֵּאִים – Bring back recompense – it means payment – upon the arrogant. When Hakodosh Boruch Hu makes a public display of His anger, of His revenge upon the wicked, it’s intended to exalt His Presence in the eyes of man.
Now, you should study that possuk and tomorrow when you’re saying it, think about it. You want to acquire a tangible feeling of the Presence of Hashem? So take a look “when He brings recompense on the arrogant sinners.” Be sure to witness the Hand of Hashem coming down on the wicked because that makes the emunah enter into your bones.
And that’s because no matter how much you see of Hashem, if you don’t see Him as the Shofeit Ha’aretz, as the Judge who is ruling over His world with perfect justice, then you don’t see Him as clearly as you should. Studying the trees and the dandelions and the apples and all the rest of the niflaos haborei is very good. You’ll see other things there but you need to see the strong hand of Hashem in order to be a real ma’amin. It’s only when a person sees the gemul al gei’im, the recompense upon the wicked – that’s when he achieves true de’ah.
And it’s not just an added degree of daas, a hiddur. No; the principle of vengeance is essential for man’s understanding of Hashem’s control in this world because when the wicked go unpunished, when people see injustice in the world, they are prone to think that the world is a chaotic and accidental place. Subconsciously, the sight of the criminal walking free or of a wicked person succeeding, cements in your mind that this world is a world of injustice, that leis din v’leis dayan.
If an African American hoodlum can stab Yankel Rosenbaum to death for no reason at all, and then be found not guilty because of the color of his skin – and that’s exactly what happened – then men will see this world as one of chaos. No matter how much you say you believe in Hashem, it’s a bitter pill for the neshama to swallow when it sees wickedness prevail.
Every time we read of a crime that is committed and a liberal judge who doesn’t inflict strong penalties, it’s like a dagger in our hearts. We become ruined in our souls; our souls become depressed more and more. When we hear that the wicked governor, yemach shemo v’zichro, the previous one and the present one as well, that they vetoed the death penalty, a cold clammy depression settles upon Mankind. It makes a crack, a very big crack, in the yesod that is the foundation of our lives, the attitude that Hakodosh Boruch Hu is in full control.
Humanity demands justice! But not merely because we demand deterrents. Certainly it’s a deterrent! Don’t believe the false statistics of the New York Times and the other liberals. They’re all liars! There’s no question that when criminals know that the electric chair is waiting for them, they’re going to think, not twice, they’ll think fifty times, before they do the crime. No question about it, the electric chairs should be working day and night; there are many customers that deserve it.
But more important than the deterrent is that our souls are stifled by the injustice. How can we have emunah that Hashem runs the world when the wicked are running roughshod over everything we believe in? It seems chas v’shalom like there’s no shofeit, no one who is imposing righteousness in the world. And we stand by and feel helpless – we can’t do anything about it. Our souls crave recompense upon the wicked.
Now if I was, chas v’Shalom, not a Jew, I would be ashamed to say that, because even religious Christians, they wouldn’t dream of such things. Vengeance?! Oh no! Never! And so, while he’s staking a dagger into innocent Jews, he wouldn’t dare think of such wickedness as revenge. He says, “Slap me in the other cheek.”
Now, the Jew doesn’t use any daggers, but he says, Keil nekamos Hashem – Hashem is a G-d of Vengeance! Because wickedness must be avenged! Certainly it must be avenged!
Now, merely to get sadistic pleasure from witnessing the suffering of the wicked is in itself not acceptable to Hakodosh Boruch Hu. But we’re here for a purpose; we want to feel the presence of a Hashem in this world as much as possible and for that we must see that He stands on His word and takes revenge against those who rebel against Him.
It’s an important principle you’re hearing now. Some things are wicked in themselves but when they’re utilized for the noble purpose of making progress in life, then not only are they not wicked, not only are they permissible, but they’re absolutely a virtue and a virtue of the greatest magnitude.
And witnessing the revenge of Hashem upon the wicked is one of those things because we must know – we have to feel it in our bones – that He’s reacting to the ma’asim of man. We say every day in davening – more than once – that Hakodosh Boruch Hu is a Keil Chai V’kayam, He’s a living G-d. Now what does that mean, “He’s a living G-d?” That He’s breathing like you and me?! No; alive means He’s a personal G-d; He’s watching, He’s reacting. And He’s rewarding and punishing Mankind. Everything is under the direct control of the Keil Chai V’kayam. There are no accidents!
When you see a rasha getting what’s coming to him, that’s when you feel a rush of excitement. You see with your own eyes that there really is a Keil Chai V’kayam. He’s not just a distant G-d; He’s right here in front of you punishing the wicked. That’s how a man achieves the perfection of daas, of understanding that Hakodosh Boruch Hu is Chai – that He is alive; He’s watching over everything and He’s reacting.
Now, Olam Hazeh is intentionally made by Hashem to be a place where people can easily be deceived. In Mesichta Bava Metzia (83b) the gemara quotes the possuk, תָּשֶׁת חֹשֶׁךְ וִיהִי לָיְלָה – You made darkness and it is night (Tehillim 104:20), and our sages say it’s talking about Olam Hazeh – Hakodosh Boruch Hu made this world a world of darkness – a place where it’s not always easy to see. It’s not only dark in third world countries; it’s dark in Germany and in Russia and in Manhattan and in Tel-Aviv – Olam Hazeh is dark.
And our function in this world is that despite the darkness, we should exert ourselves to see the truth of His judgments in this world — the display of the Keil Chai V’Kayam, the Keil Nekamos Hashem. That’s the purpose of the darkness, so that we should choose to see the truth.
If you’re looking for the Shofeit Ha’aretz, you’ll see the shilumas reshaim, the payback on the wicked, all around you. And the more you see, the more daas you acquire. That’s why we must study all the stories that we read about the punishments of the reshaim and never forget them. I have clippings at home from the papers; I keep them so that I won’t forget what Hashem did – I have a whole notebook of such anecdotes and I take it out from time to time to read them because I want to see through the darkness and acquire daas. And I like to tell these stories too because people tend to forget them right away.
I’ll share with you a few examples. I like to tell the story of a man named Mike Todd. That wasn’t his real name. Goldbogen was his name. Avrom Hersh Goldbogen. He was a Jew from Chicago, or someplace like that. And he changed his name. Avrom Hersh became Mike Todd and he went into the movie business; he even married a famous actress, Elizabeth Taylor; a goyah. He was sitting on top of the world; he was filled with money and glory and success. He’s laughing at the whole world.
And now he’s riding in his private airplane and suddenly Mike Todd falls out of his plane! That’s what happened! And as Mike is falling down he could have reminded himself that his name is not Mike at all; it’s Avrom Hersh. “Oy vey, why did I leave my home?! Why did I become a rasha and marry a shiksa?” It took a long time before he hit the sidewalk – he had plenty of time to think! And then he finally met the sidewalk. I can’t describe it to you but he was mopped up with a sponge.
So Mike Todd when he was falling out of his plane he was doing us a big favor. Hakodosh Boruch Hu was doing us a big favor by making a big display; by showing us that He does take revenge in this world – that wicked people don’t escape judgement.
Mike Todd could have died on his deathbed from pneumonia let’s say. And it wouldn’t have been any headlines. But that the big movie producer Mike Todd – at that time he was famous — should fall out of an airplane?! It was a sensation! And it didn’t just happen that way by accident. Hashem did it and He did because He wants us to see it and study it.
I do it myself. You know, I make it my business, year after year, to keep the yartzeit of Mike Todd. I tell everybody about the news. Maybe you don’t want to hear about Hashem showing His ways in the world, but I’m not going to forget it. I’m going to look at the shilumas reshaim in this world and grow in da’as Hashem.
It’s happening all the time. Here, this liberal who came from out west, a Jew. Finn was his name. F-I-N-N. He was a fighter for the rights of blacks. That was his whole life, fighting for blacks. He was a liberal so he had to show off. He said that the black nation are his best friends. So when he came to Queens for a visit, one of his friends, a black friend, came out from behind the bushes and killed him. So he got his.
You remember when Mr. and Mrs. Wachs were going to a party – a convention they called it – Friday night in Los Angeles. He, a big editor at Playboy and she, the devoted wife of this menuval, were riding in a plane on Friday night. Now, I suppose this party wasn’t kosher. No question there was all kinds of immorality there. It wasn’t a shabbos seudah after all.
So they were traveling in a plane and the engine falls off! And now the plane is turning over and it’s heading for the ground. Now, it’s a michayeh when a plane crashes. It’s a lot of fun! And Mr. and Mrs. Wachs are sitting in the plane and they see it’s going down. “Oooooh! Oh no!” Their hearts are jumping out of their breasts as they’re waiting for the crash to come. “Oh no, Sheldon!” “Oh no, Judith!” And then crash! They were smashed! If we had real Torah newspapers it would be big headlines. Front page headlines: “Hakodosh Boruch Hu throws Mr. and Mrs. Wachs aleihem ha’shnubbel out of an airplane.”
Those are the headlines we have to study! Of course, the newspapers won’t tell you that. They’ll tell you about the engine falling off, yes. But who made it fall off? Even the frum newspapers aren’t going to tell you that it was Hakodosh Boruch Hu who crashed the plane.
Today, if you look in the newspapers, nothing at all is mentioned about the very great retribution being visited upon the world. A tremendous plague, a makkah min hashamayim! Hakodosh Boruch Hu is making a big display of His revenge on the sinners by bringing upon them an incurable sickness. In New York City alone, eleven thousand deaths have been reported from AIDS. Eleven thousand deaths in New York City alone! And there are many thousands more that weren’t reported; they’re ashamed. At least six hundred thousand are suffering from AIDS in this country. In a few years it will be a million, at least. The hospitals will be crowded with reshaim suffering from the nekamah of Hakodosh Boruch Hu – even today the hospitals are jammed with beds of AIDS patients. The makkas bechoros is going on terribly. There never was an epidemic in America like the A.I.D.S. epidemic. The gays are dying like flies everywhere. Kein yirbu.
Of course, nothing is said about this. Nobody wants to say the simple truth that it’s a retribution. Just like Pharaoh when the makkos came, so he called the chartumim. “Come, get rid of the makkos,” he told them. “You’re smart men, you can find a cure.” So the government is looking for scientists and hospitals and laboratories to do research and get rid of AIDS. Meanwhile they’re not getting rid of AIDS, but Hakodosh Boruch Hu is getting rid of the mishkav zacharniks.
The reshaim suffer a great deal from AIDS! They lie in the hospitals and they cry, “Why did this happen to me? What do you want from me? Why should this happen?” It’s a big kasha; they don’t know why it’s happening! Why don’t they call me up and ask me? I could tell them right now!
It’s not a kasha at all; that’s how it should be. All the diseases that come upon the people who are promiscuous, that’s how it should be. All those people who drink booze and then they ride on the highway and get squashed, that’s how it should be. The morgues are full of young people who die from narcotics. That’s how it’s supposed to be. Every day you read about wicked men who get killed on the highway or shot down by their competitors or they die of AIDS. All good news is constantly coming in the obituary columns.
Now, I understand that right away you’ll ask me questions, don’t we see that this tzadik died and this adam kasher died – ad kan divrei Yetzer Hara. When an old gadol dies, how long do you expect them to live, to a hundred and fifty years? They have to die someday; it’s part of nature that people get old and pass away.
Sabit means you have to look, to see past the darkness. In fact, I am convinced of the fact that the reshaim suffer in this world much more than the tzadikim do. You know the newspapers are full of lies; they don’t want to tell the truth – they refuse to tell the whole truth. And still they cannot conceal what is happening to the reshaim. Now you shouldn’t buy the New York Times, but sometimes you pass by a garbage can and pick it out of the garbage can, take a look at the obituary page. It’s the only page in that paper that is worth anything! Every day, this one died at forty; a famous actress in the gay task force. This one died at thirty eight. This one died at twenty five. This one died at fifty. Every day they’re dying like flies. New York Times is doing a great service to the world. It’s letting us know the good news, the besuros tovos.
Now, we have to think about this. Because how many roshei yeshivos have been cut down by bullets in Queens? Tzadikim don’t die of AIDS, you know. When was the last time you heard of a rosh yeshiva who fell out of an airplane? It doesn’t happen. They should all live l’orech yomim tovim
But sooner or later, the wicked get what’s coming their way. And that’s what Dovid Hamelech points out to us. Listen to his words (Tehillim 73:12). He’s talking about when he sees reshaim who seem to be successful. הִנֵּה אֵלֶּה רְשָׁעִים וְשַׁלְוֵי עוֹלָם הִשְׂגּוּ חָיִל – “Look at these reshaim,” Dovid says.” They seem to be forever in tranquility and they’ve acquired strength and wealth.” So I might think,” says Dovid, אַךְ רִיק זִכִּיתִי לְבָבִי – “Maybe I have purified my heart for nothing.” What’s it all worth? If I see that the reshaim are succeeding, then I feel like all my avodah was a waste. The success of the reshaim is a dagger in the heart of the ma’amin.
So Dovid continues: עַד אָבוֹא אֶל מִקְדְּשֵׁי אֵ-ל – Until I come to the sanctuaries of Hashem. When I came to the mikdash of Hashem where the kohanim are teaching the truth of the Torah, they told me, אָבִינָה לְאַחֲרִיתָם – “Take your time. Don’t rush to conclusions. Let us think into the end of these reshaim.” Right now they seem successful, but אָבִינָה לְאַחֲרִיתָם, let us ponder about what will be.
Here’s Abbie Hoffman, a waste of a Jewish soul. He was raising the sky with his tumult, demonstrating against all the imaginary ills of society. And he was getting a lot of publicity too; he was all over TV and he was getting millions of dollars of publicity for his causes. He was demonstrating everywhere and he was on top of the world! Ahh! That’s a successful rasha!
But years later, the newspapers reported that at the age of fifty two he commited suicide. It took some time; I was thinking about him often – what’s going to be with him? Maybe he’ll do teshuvah; could be. Finally Hakodosh Boruch Hu didn’t wait any longer. Ahh! אָבִינָה לְאַחֲרִיתָם. We had to bide our time. Abbie Hoffman, a poor fellow, alone and depressed, killed himself in Chicago. It was probably the first mitzvah he did in his life! וּבִעַרְתָּ הָרָע מִקִּרְבֶּךָ – And you should remove the wickedness from your midst (Devarim 17:7). That was the end of his שַׁלְוֵי עוֹלָם הִשְׂגּוּ חָיִל.
Here’s a man, a big activist for the gays. He was leading the marches and laughing at the Orthodox. And now I read in the paper that he died – at the young age of forty-two. Another one, his partner, at age forty-one; he’s gone too.
So if you open your eyes, you’ll see on all sides that you have to be patient. While they’re marching, waving banners, winning in the courts, proud of who they are, we just bide the time. So what if they’re sitting on top of the world now?! אָבִינָה לְאַחֲרִיתָם – We’ll see what’s going to be the end of them.
Now, we can’t end our discussion with just the puranusom shel reshaim in this world. By no means is that the whole story. Oh no! This world is only a mashal. When we say that the wicked people get their recompense, it’s important to make very clear that the nikmas Hashem that we see in this world is only a mashal of what he’s going to get over there.
The mishkav zacharniks who are suffering with AIDS have to know that it’s only the beginning – the real fun is yet to come. The other side of the grave is worse than AIDS. It won’t stop with death. It will continue forever and ever. Every time he commits that terrible sin he has fifteen or twenty misas beis din – each time it’s fifteen or twenty misas beis din that he committed. And if he lived a long time there’s no end to the trouble he brought on himself. Gehenom kalah v’heim einam kalim. They’ll be punished forever and ever.
They’re suffering terribly over there right now. Only why doesn’t the Torah tell us openly what’s doing in Gehenom? Because the Torah wants to conceal it from us. If the Torah would describe for us too much what Gehenom looks like, it would be frightful – we’d become tzadikim; we’d have no choice. So the Torah doesn’t speak openly about Gehenom in order that we should have a nisayon. So a Jew says, “Look, the Torah doesn’t speak about Gehenom so I don’t have to think about Gehenom.” You won’t think about Gehenom, so you’re not afraid, and you’re willing to do sins.
But we must think about Gehenom all the time because that’s an important part of the daas we’re expected to achieve in this world; the daas of hinasei Shofeit Ha’aretz, of exalting the Judge of the world in our own eyes – and without Gehenom there’s never true justice.
Hakodosh Boruch Hu wants us to always remember that there’s another world where all accounts will be settled – for good and for bad. You remember when the Supreme Court in Israel set free Ivan Demjanjuk, yemach sh’mo – it was an avlah, a terrible injustice. That’s what the Supreme Court does in Medinas Yisroel – it promotes wickedness. Here’s a man, a Ukrainian rasha, who participated in the sadistic slaughter of thousands of the Am Yisroel – not thousands; tens of thousands! And so, when we hear that such a person is a free man, walking the streets as if nothing ever happened, it’s a terrible blow to our neshamos.
Someone called me on the phone. He said, “Where’s the yashrus?”. You know, it’s the same question with Hitler yemach sh’mo. A rasha merusha if there ever was one. In the history of the world there was no bigger rotzei’ach than him. And he got away with it in this world. What did he do at the end? He saw that when his plans began to fall apart and he was going to lose the war, so he took a perfumed flavored poison and he painlessly left the world. He left on his own terms. He took a perfumed poison and left this world b’shalom.
That’s not the way Hitler should be leaving this world. I have other ideas on how to send him off. And if I do, then Hakodosh Boruch Hu has much better ideas than me. So what does it mean when Hitler and Demjanjuk and other reshaim too don’t get their just desserts? Is that justice?! Is that yashrus? And so our neshamos are confused and depressed. Leis din v’leis dayan – There’s no judge and there’s no justice being meted out.
The answer is that the true settling of accounts waits for the Next World. The reshaim would be lucky if this world was the end for them. And that’s what Hakodosh Boruch Hu is showing us when reshaim walk around in peace in this world. Look; do you think that there could have been any true nekamah for these reshaim in this world, anyhow? Whatever the Supreme Court would have done to Demjanjuk, or whatever we would have done to Hitler; if they had hung him, if they had put him in the electric chair, even if they would have cut him up into little pieces, what would it mean anyway?! Is that a nekamah for a man who spilled so much Jewish blood?! It’s nothing at all!
Reshaim living in this world, or even leaving this world painlessly, is a reminder for us that it’s the beginning of a very big career in the Next World for them. The ”fun” for Hitler and Demjanjuk begins over there. And so, Hakodosh Boruch Hu lets the reshaim get away with it, in order that we should know there’s a Next World!
Hashem says to us: “I’m going to let this rasha go free” – it was Hashem after all – “I’m going to set him free in order that you should train yourself to think about the real nekamah, the nekamah gedolah of Gehenim.” אָבִינָה לְאַחֲרִיתָם – You have to understand the end, the real end, of the reshaim. He’s not a free man at all.
And therefore, when we see a rasha like Hitler go out of this world painlessly, or a murderer like Demjanjuk be acquitted and go back to his normal life in Cleveland, we are reminded that there is waiting for them another world. Hakodosh Boruch Hu is reminding us that He’s waiting for these fellows in the Next World. They’ll get there, and they’ll get what’s coming to them!
It is of utmost importance to know that there’s a Gehenim. And not in the superficial way of most people. To actually feel in your bones that the reshaim are suffering in Gehenim right now. And in Gehenim, that’s where nobody gets away with anything! There’s no Israeli Supreme Court in Gehenim to acquit the reshaim. They’re in Gehenom too, but nobody is asking them their opinion anymore.
In the World To Come the reshaim will all get what’s coming to them. Of course, included in that is that we’re going to get all the reward that’s coming to us. No question; in the Next World all the cheshbonos are calculated exactly; all accounts are settled – it shouldn’t be the slightest doubt in your mind. That’s a yesod hayesodos.
And included in that is Kol ha’omer Hakadosh Baruch Hu vatran – Anybody who says that Hashem is forgiving, he’s playing with his life (Bava Kamma 50a). Hashem doesn’t forgive. Of course, if you’re still alive and you do teshuva and you ask Him forgiveness that’s something else. But otherwise there’s no forgiving! When a man dies with sins it’s going to be very bad for him.
And Hakodosh Boruch Hu will then face him in a way that the person never imagined – a face that he didn’t recognize in this world. Rav Yisroel Salanter says that Hakodosh Boruch Hu has two faces – one face is in this world and one face in the next world. In this world His face is the face of chesed; He’s forgiving and kindly – He’s maarich af; it means He gives you a chance again and again.
But once a person dies, it’s all over. In the Next World Hashem shows the stern face of a judge. He doesn’t forgive – it’s too late for that. And reshaim will get it. They’re getting it right now. They’re in Gehenim and they’re being tortured constantly.
The Gemara in Gittin (57a) describes how Titus was brought up by a ba’alas ov, a necromancer, and the neshama of Titus was describing what he has to undergo in the next world every day. Oy, it was terrible. He’s being burned to death every day. You know being burned to death is not a compote – it’s not a very delightful experience. Every time he’s reduced to ashes — it’s terrible. If you ever read about a victim who was burned alive at the stake, it’s the most terrible death to be burnt to death. He’s being burnt over and over again. And the Gemara says that Hakodosh Boruch Hu gives the reshaim koach to suffer. They’re given a tremendous ability to endure the suffering.
You have to imagine in your mind what Hitler is undergoing right now in Gehenim. He killed millions – millions of the Am Hashem. And so he’s in Gehenim right now and he’s putting on a performance every day. Every day they revive him; they make him alive again with his flesh and his nerves. And every day they scrape the skin off him and they hang him up and they cut off pieces and pieces of him. And he screams and screams. He screams all the time! Hitler is being given all that he did to his victims, again and again.
And he’s not the only one. It’s very crowded there. Very crowded! And very hot. All the reshaim are in Gehenim right now! Pay attention. You hear that noise?! They’re getting it in Gehenim. There is a terrible outcry in Gehenim right now.
And the fact that they are being terribly punished for what they did, that’s a great happiness for us – even now, in this world, the maaminim are fortified knowing what’s doing in the next world. And when we come to the Next World – we’re not in a rush – we’ll be able to witness the culmination of shilumas reshaim, when we are finally able to see the revenge, we’ll look on with happiness!
One of the secret pleasures of Gan Eden is watching the suffering of these reshaim. The tzadikim are given front row seats in Gan Eden and they’re enjoying the sights. That’s part of the reward in the next world, the tzaddikim are rewarded. Not only do the tzaddikim in the next world enjoy the happiness of the great and everlasting banquet of Olam Habah, but they enjoy also the sight of those who are present and there’s nothing on the table in front of them. it’s going to be an enjoyment without end! The tzadikim are sitting and looking at Hitler and at Titus and at Haman as they’re being broiled and baked over and over again. They’re crying out and tzadikim are shepping nachas without end. They have better things to do there too, but this is part of it.
Now, I know that for you Americans this sounds harsh but this is Dovid Hamelech speaking! And he goes on and tells us why this sight brings rejoicing: וְיֹאמַר אָדָם אַךְ פְּרִי לַצַּדִּיק – And then men will say: ‘Truly, there is reward for the righteous,’ אַךְ יֵשׁ אֱלֹקִים שֹׁפְטִים בָּאָרֶץ – ‘Truly, there is a G-d that judges the world’ (Tehillim 58: 11-12). Because now, they see that Hakodosh Boruch Hu is righteous! Everything makes sense and all accounts are being settled.
The simchas hatzaddikim cannot be complete until they see that Hashem is the Shofet Emes; that all accounts are settled. And that’s going to be in Gan Eden and in Gehenom. It’s not merely a sadistic joy, the immature and materialistic nekamah of the fools. But it will be a great consolation, that nekamah, because it will be the ultimate vision of seeing Hashem in full control, the true Shofeit Ha’aretz.
Now, Olam Haboh is only a place of reward – all of the happiness of seeing the Shofeit Ha’aretz in perfect judgement in the next world is only a reward for the work we put into seeing the Shofeit Ha’aretz in this world. And that means that the more one sees while he’s still alive – the more de’ah he achieves in this world – the more he’ll see in the next world forever and ever.
And that’s why Moshe Rabeinu couldn’t leave this world without seeing the punishment upon the Midianim with his own eyes. The man who strived for perfection all his life, the man who wanted to see Hashem most in this world, deserved a last opportunity for even more perfection.
“Take vengeance for the Bnei Yisroel from the Midianim, and only afterward shall you be gathered into your peoples” – teaches that one of the greatest perfections in daas Hashem is seeing the Keil Nekamos Hashem. And it is the awareness of the Keil Nekamos Hashem thatwe achieve in this world that will equip us to enjoy the splendor of the Hinasei Shofeit Ha’aretz, the most exalted and perfect Judge,in the World to Come forever and ever.

Will Massachusetts, the cradle of American liberty, let four lawyers don the robes of oligarchy, override the wishes of the majority of the people, usurp the powers of their elected representatives and sabotage the institution of marriage? Where is the fight that manifested itself in Massachusetts men at the battles of Bunker Hill, Lexington and Concord?
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled 4-to-3 to legalize same-sex marriages. With elitist arrogance, the four-person majority bragged: "Certainly our decision today marks a significant change in the definition of marriage as it has been inherited from the common law, and understood by many societies for centuries."
Indeed, it does. Traditional marriage of husband and wife is fortified by a network of legal rights and duties spelled out in more than 1,000 federal and 400 state laws. The four judges gave the governor and the legislature 180 days to overturn nearly 400 years of Massachusetts history.
Those judges had no authority to change the definition of marriage. They contemplated their navels and convinced themselves that they alone could change social policy and make new law, and even contemptuously opined that belief in traditional marriage is without a "rational basis."
The people of Massachusetts should tell the judges to stuff their arrogance. "We the people" should rise up and say we are not going to kowtow to judicial tyranny.
Regrettably, the response by Massachusetts public officials has been pusillanimous. They are groveling before the four judges, wiggling around in the hope the court might be appeased by a parallel system of civil unions.
Gov. Mitt Romney is trying to walk a tightrope of compromise. While supporting a constitutional amendment to protect traditional marriage, he said: "We obviously have to follow the law as provided by the Supreme Judicial Court, even if we don't agree with it," and we need to decide "what kind of statute we can fashion which is consistent with the law."
But what "law"? There is no law that requires or even allows same-sex marriages. The judges enunciated only special-interest advocacy masquerading as legal reasoning.
Attorney General Thomas F. Reilly said the judges overstepped in trying to shape social policy, but he wants to test an alternative solution and then seek "an advisory opinion of the court." Au contraire; we don't want any more advice from those judges.
State Rep. Philip Travis, the lead sponsor of an amendment to preserve the definition of marriage, has the right response. He said that if the legislature doesn't act within the 180 days, the court can't force clerks to issue marriage licenses to gay couples.
"When we pass 180 days, what are you going to do to the Legislature?" said Travis. "With all due respect to the Supreme Court ... you've given us a decision and given it to us to enforce. Therefore, if we don't enforce it, there is no remedy under the law of Massachusetts."
This Massachusetts court decision isn't just about same-sex marriage. It has posed the question whether Americans are willing to submit to what Thomas Jefferson predicted would be "the despotism of an oligarchy" if judges are allowed to be "the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions."
All over the nation, special-interest advocacy groups are "forum shopping" to find friendly judges willing to bypass the Constitution and write their own social and sexual preferences into the law. Plaintiffs are seeking out judges who are willing to cooperate in deconstructing our culture by abolishing the Pledge of Allegiance and the Ten Commandments to make the nation comfortable for atheists, and to abolish marriage requirements to make the nation comfortable for unrestricted sex.
Gay rights activists have a nationwide strategy to make same-sex marriage a constitutional right. The legal advocacy firm called Freedom to Marry is joined in this effort by the Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders, the American Civil Liberties Union, Lambda Legal, NOW Legal Defense and Education Fund, and Human Rights Watch.
They plan to accomplish in the courts what they cannot win in elected legislatures. The gay lawyers will litigate to get other state courts to use Massachusetts as a model, and the gays who marry in Massachusetts will seek legal recognition in other states, challenging their marriage laws and state Defense of Marriage Acts.
The same-sex-marriage activists know that the legal profession is predisposed to redefine marriage. The dissenting justices in Lawrence v. Texas warned that the Supreme Court is imbued with the "law profession's anti-anti-homosexual culture."
The dissenting judges in the Massachusetts same-sex marriage case laid it on the line: "What is at stake in this case is not the unequal treatment of individuals or whether individual rights have been impermissibly burdened, but the power of the Legislature to effectuate social change without interference from the courts. ... The power to regulate marriage lies with the Legislature, not with the judiciary."
Massachusetts citizens should slap down their high court as the citizens of Hawaii and Alaska did when confronted with the same judicial impudence, and a nationwide backlash against judicial activism should start to roll.

From the series “Kud Wafter,” which will soon be getting an anime adaptation, appears the self-proclaimed exotic mascot “Noumi Kudryavka” in a new scale figure to join Kotobukiya’s figurine lineup!
This detailed sculpt is based on the original concept art drawn by Na-Ga in commemoration of the “Kud Wafter Anime Project” with details added specifically to the design by the artist.
The tiny details from the illustration such as the signature large hat, cape, hair flowing in the wind, bouquet clutched to her chest were all faithfully recreated within this sculpt. Her hair was also made using clear parts to create a beautiful and translucent finish.
Be sure to add this Noumi Kudryavka who was recreated with great care down to the finest details to your collection.

If this is the case he could just decide enough is enough, invest no more money and let the club go to ruin and fall out of the football league. This may sound drastic and highly unlikely, but there are no signs that he’s worried about our situation or that he intends to do anything about it. The first sign if not before will come at the end of the season when we see if he sells any assets, that’s if we have any left.
If this is the route he intends to follow there isn’t much fans can do about it, other than bring it on by not buying anymore season tickets.
Does anybody else think he REALLY DOESN'T CARE, because if he does he’s going a strange way about showing it and I’m not seeing it.
Other threads are all about Lambert and will he or won’t he soon be gone, this one is about Marcus Evans and only Marcus Evans and his future with ITFC.
It could well be his own events business is struggling to survive during the pandemic and ITFC are way, way down the priority list.
Could well be there’s a game going on between Evans and Lambert. Who blinks first - will Evans sack him first or will Lambert resign first?
Worrying, though.... I’d imagine Evans doesn’t want the club and regrets ever getting involved with it.
I think that when he bought the club he really did see it as an asset to his corporation provided that he would be able to entertain his clients to Premier matches.
As we all know, he made one mistake after another because he didn't really have a clue about running a football club.
So I think that after it became obvious to him that Premier football was beyond reason in the short term at least, he resigned himself to having the club as the loss making arm of his empire meaning that he was better able to keep his shareholders happy.
But now - well maybe he really does not care any more, it certainly seems that way. That being the case, unless somebody comes along and buys him out then I really fear for the future of the club. He has always said that he would be prepared to sell if the sale was in the best interests of the club - what we need is a consortium of Town fans to get together and test him out by making an offer.
I think it's worth remembering that ME gets a big payoff if we ever get back into the Premier league. You'll remember that the Aviva debt was written down to a very small amount in relation to being paid back to Aviva but in our books all of this debt is still technically due to ME from the riches that we would get, but never actually due if we don't get there or the club wasn't taken over by a new investor.
This last point I think is the key because the less likely ME sees it to be for us to get promoted back to the PL, the lower a payoff he would probably accept from another investor to sell and lose this 'asset'.
I am sure he is just as aware of these things as he always was. However the longer things continue without promotion, the stronger the incentive to get the club operating at break even. Ironically, the salary cap might have secretly been a dream come true for his accountants, if he has already written off our chances of success.
This whole post has been about finance, not about football - because I don't think ME is particularly interested in the football side.
It's a sobering thought that the owner of your club doesn't care, buts it's also not beyond the realms of possibility given how he is failing to act with this current crisis. Call me daft but I'll be amazed if Lambert is still here come Saturday, at least it would be a sign that he does care a bit.
If someone puts 110 million pound of there own money into something they have to care. Any thoughts that he would let the club and his investment just go i find crazy. ME has been badly advised and been badly damaged by so called football people especially his managers and chief executives. In the world of business huge success in the world of football huge failier.
I have no sympathy for Evans. I mean, investing money in any unknown venture is a risk. People keep talking about Evans success as a business man, but his apparent incompetence of owning a football club is obvious. Another example of a bad business decisions is Evans giving Lambert a 5 year contract!...especially when you look at Lambert's managing record. Evan's official statements over the years have reeked of ambiguous plans adapted from "The Idiot Guide to Running a Football Club". Five point plans and green shoots sound great at a press conference, but if you don't have a f**king clue of how to implement those plans it's a farce. Oh yeah I forgot, thank you Mr Evans for saving Ipswich Town FC.......................................f*ck that!
Evans may be a competent businessman is some areas but regards "running" or ownership of a "football" club it's a f**king disaster. I look at Marcus Evans ability to make good in this particular field, seems the individual's just out of it's depth. Taking control here was a mistake from day one, incredible this circus has been ongoing for some thirteen years.
It's not that Evans doesn't care, say again we're far from a #1 priority given his other enterprises. Must be way down the list as to the time and endeavor he puts into other activities within his control. Is he going to come out and declare "I don't give a f*ck" ? Guessing no, many of us realize the interest seems or is minimal but concur with an earlier reply he can only hope and is eager to sell up when possible and free himself of the club.
100 million of debt within the team if correct, that requires to be cleared. Right now you'd either have to be a masochist or mighty adventurous (for any potential investors) to want to take ownership / responsibility of this club as it stands.
Are you crafty? Do you like to make your own bath goodies or signature scents for yourself or your friends? I sure do. My kitchen has been my “laboratory” since I was young. Yes, there are always mishaps (I would NEVER (wink) spill anything) or stuff that turns out smelling like trash, but that’s the fun of it.
Looking around my house at my craft supplies, I decided to make my own solid fragrances for gifts for my loved ones. A little research on the web told me that I needed a few basic things: a container to put the fragrance in, grated beeswax, jojoba or sweet almond oil and fragrance, either fragrance oils or essential oils. Easy. Luckily, I have all these things. I placed an order online a few months back from Wellington Fragrance, so I was stocked up on the fragrance and wax. They have great fragrance oils that mimic favorite popular scents from big chain bath companies. I didn’t have any small tins so I improvised with some sample size empty plastic containers that I got from a skin care trade show. For the oil I used jojoba because that’s what I had on hand.
Container for the final product: Can be glass, tin or even plastic. You can get creative with containers as long as they are fully sanitized and thoroughly dry. You just need to be able to be able to get your finger on the product in order to apply it.
Jojoba or Sweet Almond Oil: Vegetable oil could work in a pinch. I wouldn’t use any oil that has a heavy scent like olive or sesame, it will make your fragrance funky.
Droppers or straws: For getting precise drops of your fragrance oils and mixing. Straws are easy because you don’t have to clean them afterwards.
Fragrance oil or essential oils: I used mostly fragrance oils, but did add essential oils to a few mixtures.
The hard part is figuring out what scent to make. I was making these for my family, and not knowing exactly what they would like, I did more research on the internet. Astrological signs are always a good general way to start if you’re into that stuff. For example, I looked up what fragrance an Aquarius would like and it said: floral, green tea, and sea. For Cancer it said: jasmine, lily, magnolia, honey, mandarin, rose and sandalwood.
If you know that your best friend just adores the scent of roses, you can just go with one scent. Trial and error and a little instinct are the ways to go with blending scents. Just remember, your nose and body chemistry is different from theirs, so what they love may give you a headache.
Start out by measuring out the oil and beeswax in your glass mixing bowl. Melt the wax and oil together. You can do this in a double boiler or by setting the glass bowl on an electric burner set on low. Be careful when handling the bowl when the mixture is melted, it will be hot. Set the bowl on a hot pad so you don’t scorch your counter top.
Mix in the fragrance of your choice. I used cocktail stirring straws to measure out my oils and another fresh straw to mix. Before your mixture cools, pour into your container. Let it cool for at least 10 minutes. Label the containers so you don’t get them mixed up if you are making more than one scent. Wrap them up and include a card telling the recipient of the fragrance mixture.
I made a whole bunch, which took me a few hours with a trial and error session in the beginning. Each person receiving one of these got their own custom scent, according to their astrological sign. They all also got one small pot that was scented with coconut, tangerine and hibiscus. I hope they like them!
These solid perfumes are cute, easy to make and small enough to slip in your purse. You can make a countless number of custom scents to suit your mood. Just remember to document your favorite recipes so you can make them again. They can also be used to tame a few flyaways in a pinch or to moisturize and scent the ends of your hair. Post your favorite blends here for others! Enjoy!

Successful traders do not rely on a stroke of good luck – their work is based only on clear market laws. That is why the achievement of permanent and successful results is nearly impossible without Forex tactics – special techniques that have already been studied and grouped into concepts. Working within the framework of a chosen strategy, trading tactics allow a trader to perform the complete control of his funds and make his dreams about a steady profit come true.
To improve his welfare, a trader, using market trading tactics, determines the trend of a transaction and its value. This is not possible without the in-depth analysis of a market and without the examination of technical factors and basic management principles. Only in that order a trader can count on a successful application of trading tactics – the full range of measures that brings market participants closers to their financial goals. When opening (closing) his positions, a trader locks in profits, being secured against any losses.
There is many trading tactics to use on Forex market – all of them work at the same principles, but differs in nuances, preferred individually be each trader.
Many traders consider this set of measures to be the easiest, the most reliable and the most profitable one. Such Forex tactics generates profits equal to 75% of the initial width of trend values. The key principle if this Forex tactics is to search in a chart for an ascending/descending trend and form a corridor on three points. With an ascending trend, a trader purchases from the lower bound of the corridor and locks in profits – at its upper bound. Upon that, a stop is outside the last minimum. To take all advantages of this tactics, it is quite important to spot the trend on a price chart, by specifying support (resistance) lines. Experienced financiers insist: keep 10% from the original size of a channel.
Pyramiding tactics has come into widespread acceptance among traders due to its low risks (of course, in applied correctly). This Forex trading tactics implies opening a few lots, whose number, subject to the confirmation of the correctness of the trend, is gradually increasing in the same direction. When using this tactics, the stops of subsequent positions shall be calculated on the condition that they do not cross the border of the already existing income. Therefore, each subsequent position is opened above the previous one. Another specific feature of this Forex tactics is that the first transaction of a chain can be opened or closed, but with the preservation of values of the previous one. Using this technique, a trader sets the value of a stop-loss at the same level, which reaches a mean value of two transactions when the price passes 50 or more points from the opening of the next transaction. If the price starts reversing, then all profits gained from the second trading position may even totally cover all losses. And if such the trend continues to exist, then all its transaction will reliably generate profits.
Usually, traders rely on the locked-in position tactics, when the already opened position begins to inflict losses above 50-70 points, and the intensity of the price movement increases. This is exactly the time to use so-called “lock” – when, in a clearly defined point, a response transaction is being opened extremely close to the opening of an initial position. This Forex trading tactics allows traders to effectively reduce the amount of losses. For instance, if a trading position opened for sale turns out to be a loss-making one, a subsequent position should be opened for purchase. With this Forex trading tactics, the difference between points is “locked-in”, which means that the current income from one of transactions will cover all loses caused by the second one. To get out of this “lock”, a trader should estimate future dynamics of prices and close the transaction that doesn’t generate profits.
Market participants believe that averaging technique is a lot easier than the above-mentioned “locks”, but remain wary, considering it to be risky enough. Indeed, such the Forex tactics requires investments in the trading process of a trader’s deposit, consequently excluding almost all risk estimation rules. There is only one thing to be mentioned in defense of this technique: following a loss-making transaction, a trader may open another, more profitable order. Another important detail: you can open such orders an unlimited number of time! But, there is a slight hitch – your deposit may dry up before the market stops to move against you. However, experienced traders want to hang on to this trading tactics. For example: a trader purchases NZD against CHF at the exchange rate of 0.9100, which then falls to the level of 0.9060, thus depriving a trader of 40 points. A trader doesn’t give up and purchases NZD at the rate of 0.9060, with a view to close his orders at the level of 0.9080. Then, on reaching this level, losses caused by the second order are covered with a profitable order, and a trader remains without any financial damage. To avoid losing their deposits, professionals recommend no to exceed the amount of risks for all orders by more than 5% and average a loss-making transaction by one order only. Anyway, such the Forex trading tactics is suitable only for professionals.
Ower is commonly used when dealing with the projected market reversal. When a market moves in the opposite direction from the trend of a current position, it often makes sense to make a double-valued response transaction. A trader closes all already opened positions (for example, if they were opened for sale), and immediately opens other positions (for purchase). In that case, having a short respond and being ready to take a prompt action, a trader gets minimal losses and obtains profits. Such the strategy makes it possible to compensate losses caused by the primarily opened position, as well as open a new transaction, but this time – in the direct line of a current trend.
Scalping (or pipsing) trading tactics is applied for getting profits from a large number of transactions at short time intervals and without profit constraints or risks. Therefore, traders-scalpers can carry out up to several dozens of trading transactions per day, and it is not necessary for all of them to be profitable. With this tactics, a stop-loss line is set as close as possible to the price, at which a transaction is opened – this will minimize losses in case of the faulty forecast. Scalping requires constant attention: a trader should have assiduity and patience in order to keep his transactions under continuous monitoring. Moreover, some transactions can yield heavy losses, and a trader should have stable psychology of work and posses well-crafted and carefully tested reliable strategies for scalping.
In fact, there is many more market trading tactics in addition to the aforementioned ones. Each one has its own special characteristics and useful features. In order to get better understanding of their working principles and accumulate basic experience, beginning traders can test the existing classic trading tactics on a demo-account. Thereafter, newcomers can enter a real market to get an authentic trading experience and make profits.
From Dragutin/Miroslav hut the trail is well marked but in terrible condition! I'd recommend to get on the asphalt road as soon as you can. From Stalak the trail improves. I think names Duliba/Zelena are used interchangably now; either way, there's an unserviced hut with wooden bunks, picnic tables and a covered well with water.

Finnish is the mother tongue of most Finns. The people who use Finnish are mainly distributed in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Estonia and Russia, and some in Michigan.It is one of the two official languages of Finland and a legal minority language in Sweden. Finnish and Estonian are similar, and the vocabulary and grammar are similar. After a short period of practice, Finns and Estonians can understand each other's language, since most European languages belong to the Indo-European language, and Finnish belongs to the Ural language family.As a result, Finnish words are very different from most other European languages, and because of their very complicated grammar, they are recognized as extremely difficult to learn.Due to the small audience of the language and the difficulty of learning, there are currently very few Finnish translations.
When I’m creating reviews I often compare similiar experiences to one another. This helps me create these reviews because I can use my history of similar events. The more experiences I have the more I catch the small details of what to look for. This was not my first time Zip Lining, last time it was costa Rica. Now I’ve had two great experiences and Flight of Gibbons topped my last one by far. This is the Top Zip Line in Chiang Mai and Thailand.
My first time on a Zip Line was in Costa Rica I had to hike up a mountain side onto the jump off a tall tree platform while holding onto a Zip Line connector. I’m scared of heights and always have been, airplanes are okay. There’s a difference, there’s a floor on an airplane. I chickened out until one of the grandma age ladies went on the biplane and I was still standing there. How would it look if a grandma went and I didn’t? I jumped off the first tree hooked up and flew across from one tree to another. It wasn’t that simple really…but well worth it.
It was the first step off that first tree that I had a problem in Costa Rica. My camera got caught up in the safety line and I was hanging off of the camera strap in the air. Fortunately the camera strap didn’t break. That was the start of my zip line experience and also enabled me to say that Flight of the Gibbons was a better experience hands down because of the speed, experienced people working at the company, and also I felt safer. BTW I Didn’t take my camera on this zip line and that helped, but I did take my iPhone and used it with a plastic cover because it was raining. At the end of the trip the plastic was 3/4 ripped, but I still had my new iPhone.
I picked Flight of the Gibbons for my Zip Line experience outside of Chiang Mai, Thailand. I was looking forward to seeing the difference between the Costa Rica Zip Lines trip and Flight of the Gibbons in Chiang Mai. The safety factors, what the trees and forest was like and how much hiking there was for our group. I got all my answers and more…Top Zip Line Chiang Mai.
The whole adventure with Flight of the Gibbons was a very positive experience from the first tree to the last! Flight of the Gibbons called this an experience, but I call it an adventure because of the Zip Line but more because of the Gibbon Monkeys and how they interact with humans. Read below and see how my day went…Short videos and images from the pickup at my hotel, to the drive, gearing up, safety talk and zipping around with the monkeys. Also a healthy fun lunch and a small hike to a near by village.
Our pickup time was between 6:30 & 7:00 A.M. and they picked us up in a newer minivan (and good driver) at 6:30, in fact they were downstairs waiting for us right on time. We stopped at three hotels on the way and picked up everyone and headed to the mountain. It started to Rain, but I read about that if it rained, it wouldn’t be a problem, this is a rain forest, it rains here all the time. The driver was competent and our van began our ascent up the curvy mountain road.
On arrival we signed our releases and donned our equipment, it all looked brand new, straps, hardware and helmet. We returned back to the van and made our final leg of the trip up the mountain.
I expected an adventure and sure enough, I was not disappointed. Some of us had ponchos, but even though there was a consistant rain, if you went without any rain gear, you still didn’t get wet, the trees shielded us from the rain. All the Zip Line equipment was either new or kept like new, I keep a sharp eye out for any irregularities.
The first thing our sky crew did was give us safety directions and wanted to make sure everyone understood. We all felt safe but there is always a little apprehension until you see the crew in action. Our two guys were outstanding and after the first few Zip lines, we all felt safe. I was the biggest guy in the group and since I am 6 ft. tall and183 lbs, my weight made my trip across the wire real hot (fast) because the more weight the faster you go. Because of the rain, all the wires were wet, it made our trips across even faster. I came in so fast they had to catch me at the end, and they did several times without any problem. We made sure we gave them a nice tip, they deserved it! Tip #1: Remember, the crew are the only ones to control your safety line, do not touch it yourself! Tip 2: listen to your crew!! (I found that the operation seems very safe, but in life anything can happen at any time, there is always a risk. It seems as though Flight of the Gibbons does their best to be safe for your benefit.)
Our sky guides not only made our trip safe, they educated us about the forest and the Gibbon. In Costa Rica we had 10 wires to cross, I thought that was about what we had here, but no, there were many more here.
The Zip Lines are fast, but even faster when wet. Each one was a thrill and at each one there was a crew member sending you off and another one there to catch you at the end if they needed too.
You can be superman and fly through the air, but only if you want too. The crew hooks the line on the back part of your harness and you fly to the other tree like in this video. They still have a safety line on you just in case. Your arms are free as you sail through the air!!
Each trip from tree to tree was an adrenaline rush and we all were having fun in the forest. It’s beautiful here, fresh clean air with a slight mist and the forest added extra oxygen, and we were all playing in the tree tops. Now it was time to go high over the water using a small foot bridge. After hiking up even more, a few of our group disappeared and I asked where did they go…the Gibbons.
Once we saw the Gibbons and how friendly and cute these little monkeys were, the experience turned into an adventure. We came all the way across the forest now we were flying across to where the Gibbons were. They came down to greet us, the sky guides and the Gibbons were all friends, we could all tell. There was a trust that was evident, you can see that from the photographs. By the way, their ares are huge, lots of muscles, you can see that in their shoulders.
We made it across a few more zip lines and then they lowered us down to the ground, we went back to base camp crossed the street for a prepared lunch.
This is the course from the Chiang Mai Mae Kampong Mountain. My Costa Rica trip had only 10 Zip Lines, Flight of the Gibbon was much more and also the encounter with the Gibbons.

The people that visit this world wide tourist attraction are Chinese tourists, European tourists, Canadian tourists, Australian tourists, and American tourists. The central tourism language in Thailand is English. The Thai guides speak English and communication is important for safety reasons.

But the reason may surprise you. It’s not an issue of privacy. Apple says it’s related to its face detection capabilities.
In a memo released on Wednesday, Apple said its Face ID technology may be less accurate in detecting the faces of children. This is “because their distinct facial features may not have fully developed,” the memo stated.
Face ID, a defining feature of the $999 special edition smartphone unveiled earlier this month, is intended to unlock the device with a face scan. The technology uses its front-facing cameras and sensors that create a map of the face to determine if you are the phone’s owner.
Apple has said that its face detection system is processed directly on the device — and never leaves it. It’s also designed to protect against spoofing, which means someone can’t steal your phone and try to unlock it with a picture of your face.
During its press conference earlier this month, Apple said Face ID will provide much better security than Touch ID, its existing home button and fingerprint sensor feature. While the chances of someone successfully unlocking your iPhone Touch ID are one in 50,000, that number jumps to one in a million with Face ID, the company said.
However, twins and “siblings that look alike” may have a harder time with the authentication process, Apple said in its memo.
The iPhone X is slated to go on sale in November, but the company is reportedlyexperiencing production holdups related to Face ID, which could impact the availability of the device.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Up to 400 boys could have been kidnapped in the northern Nigerian state of Katsina as their school got attacked by a group of unknown armed men, Nigeria’s Vanguard newspaper reported, citing authorities.
The Kankara Government Science Secondary School, an all-boys boarding school, was attacked on Friday. The school’s guards were reportedly shot at as intruders stormed the premises. Over 800 children attended the school that day, and it was not immediately clear how many were kidnapped and how many saved themselves by fleeing into bushes.
“The children have continued to return and according to report available, the number of the missing children who have returned are now 406 including the earlier ones found,” Katsina Education Commissioner Badamasi Charanchi was quoted as saying.
According to the official, some children spent the night in bushes and began returning after sunrise. Another 200 children were earlier found and returned by the police, the Katsina State Police Command said, as cited in the report.
“The police, Nigerian Army, and Nigerian Air Force are working closely with the school authorities to ascertain the actual number of the missing and/or kidnapped students while search parties are assiduously working with a view to find and/or rescue the missing students,” Katsina police spokesperson Gambo Isah was quoted as saying in a press statement.
The rescued children will be sent back home as Katsina Governor Aminu Bello Masari has ordered for a temporary closure of all boarding schools in the wake of the attack.
Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, who is a native of the Katsina state, has condemned the attack and called on the security forces to find and prosecute the perpetrators. On Saturday, the Katsina police said the military had found the attackers’ hideout.

As I attend a high powered conference I can't help ponder the futility of the event - all talk, no action.
As a reporter for Dawn in the mid-to-late 1990s, one of the first beats assigned to me was to cover seminars on various issues in the city of Karachi.
At first this seemed like an interesting proposition but over time it became a drag - not least because on ended up seeing the same people all the time, discussing the same things over and over again, and giving the same solutions over and over again.
Surely, they didn't need to hold yet another conference on this issue, one would say to oneself, given that the issue had already been done to death and the recommendations were known to all and sundry. Eventually it all came down to an exchange - and quite boring at that - of hot air.
This week as I attend a reasonably high-powered three-day conference in Islamabad on a grand-sounding topic like "Peace and Sustainable Development: The way forward" (organised by the Sustainable Development Policy Institute), I thought about this issue again.
There were three sessions today and the yardstick of one of these events (or reading a new paper or listening to a lecture) is whether one learnt anything new. To that effect, I could safely say that the one person from whom I did learn something was founder and co-director of Kali for Women (India's first feminist publishing house) Urvashi Butalia who told the audience of the neglected world of oral histories of those living on the margins. In this regard she gave the instructive example of a Dalit sweeper in a village in Indian Punjab who said that her family escaped the ravages of Partition violence becuase it was against Sikhs and Hindus and Muslims and since she was a Harijan she and her family were not affected by it. Ms Butalia said that this was an example of how historiography tended to ignore the voices of those living on the margins, such as this Dalit sweeper.
The other notable speaker -- as measured by what he said -- during the day was Ahmed Salim of the SDPI who said that the print media, especially the Urdu press, was one of the chief makers of bias against the minorities in Pakistan. He cited several examples of how Urdu newspapers still used derogatory terms like 'choora' against the minorities and suggested a useful set of recommendations for the print and electronic media to follow. Important among these was a suggestion that they give at least equal coverage to issues of minorities and give them -- as a group or community -- a voice equal to that of the majority in Pakistani society.
The last session was supposed to be for brain-storming on how to make think-tanks more effective -- and was by invitation only (many thanks to SDPI head Abid Qayyum Suleri for inviting a non-think-tanker to this) -- but it turned out to be more of brain-deadening one. I suspect that since some of the donors were sitting in the room, the discussion was quite staid and boring and to an outsider it seemed as if they could have done with some outside/external views.
For instance, the quite obvious issue of the general public (and in turn potentially the government) not see recommendations by these think-tanks as indigenous enough because they are too too donor-driven was hardly addressed.
One of the donors, who had come from a Canadian-funded organisation based in New Delhi did say quite unequivocally that his organisation did not take into account the aims and objectives or agenda of the organisation to whom funds would be given, but then again what would one expect a donor to say at such a forum?
parvez | 10 years ago | Reply Considering the number of these affairs that take place and the costs involved I think you have made a fair argument. One aspect left out is that these events give an opportunity for people to meet and exchange business cards and a lot just come for the lunch.
Today, Jesus whispers to my heart with new words. This Man of Sorrows knows such deep brokenness, wrenching pain, and even wishing for God to bring a miracle, another plan that would cost less.
“He offered prayers and pleadings, with a loud cry and tears, to the one who could rescue him from death.” (heb. 5:7-9)
My heart identifies with Jesus today, the man who said, in essence, “Please. Please no. I don’t want to walk this path.”
Nearly every day, I say in any tone, volume, or escalating degree, “Please. Please no. Isn’t there another way? Does obeying you really have to feel this lonely, make me this tired, cost me this much?”
In sinless perfection, Jesus poured out the longings of his heart before his Father, without apology. We hear him cry out to his Father, asking if there could be another way, any way at all, to avoid this. A second time, then again a third, he pleaded for an alternative to the horror of abandonment by his Father. If such an alternative existed, wouldn’t the Father provide it? But the obedient Son’s plea to his loving Father was met with silence – a tacit no from God.
It would seem to me that if anybody ever deserved to have his prayers answered in the affirmative, it was Jesus. Here he was in the garden of Gethsemane, pouring out his repeated request to his Father, asking him to accomplish the salvation of sinners in some other way.
Jesus knows what it feels like to bring a heartfelt, passionate prayer to God and to hear God say, in effect, “I’ve got something else in mind. I have another plan. And that plan is going to require some intense suffering on your part.”
“Perhaps, we call Good Friday good because it was what made Easter possible. But why wasn’t there any other way? Does it always take failure in man’s terms to make success in God’s?
Experience is painfully teaching me that what seems a NO to man from man’s point of view, is often the essential prelude to a far greater YES.”
Wow, Tricia. What a great post on this Good Friday morning. These quotes you shared “put me in my place,” so to speak with regard to the “no” answers God has given me. Really insightful thoughts here that teach us how to be more like Jesus in selflessness and longsufferering. Thanks so much, and a blessed, peace-filled Easter to you.
I always like to think that one of the things that helped Jesus through His ordeal was His real knowledge of what lies beyond this life. He had been there and I like to think that He knew that no matter how much suffering we endure on earth, in human form, there is a reward beyond our wildest dreams. For me it is a life lesson. Expect not your joy on earth but in your place after this life.
dear tricia..of all the easter messages today, this one here that you have posted brings the tears to my eyes..i am at mom and dad goldens and i tried to read it out loud to them but could only manage a few lines…they know about you and your little family,,,,,tricia ..god bless you,,,love terry

Jazz Profiles: Uan Rasey: Hollywood Studio Artist - The Leonard Maltin Interview
Every film buff knows the names of the great movie composers, but hardly anyone knows who actually performed their scores. Musicians received no credit for their work (and still don't, unless they are singled out as featured soloists).
Among musicians, conductors, composers and arrangers, however, Uan Rasey was known as one of the best in the business, a lead trumpeter who made good music sound great.
Listen to the ballet from An American in Paris and you'll hear his soaring trumpet, especially during the jazzy passages. If you enjoy Bing Crosby's vintage radio programs, as I do, you can hear Uan's beautiful lead voice intoning the crooner's theme song Where the Blue of the Night (Meets the Gold of the Day) And his rendition of Jerry Goldsmith's melancholy theme for Chinatown is unforgettable.
Although stricken with polio as a boy, the disability never held Uan back from scaling the heights of the music world in Los Angeles. For many years, he has taught a younger generation of trumpeters, and appears in the new documentary Trying to Get Good: The Jazz Odyssey of Jack Sheldon, discussing one of his star pupils. Since conducting this interview, I've run into Uan cheering on great musicians at Charlie O's jazz club in the San Fernando Valley. - Leonard Maltin [Uan Rasey died in 2011 at the age of 90].
LM: How and when did you first come to Los Angeles?
UR: The end of 1936; early 1937. In 1935, it got down to 65 below in Glasgow, Montana — that's without the wind chill factor. And I was in a wheelchair; I could barely move around. We lost a few kids that froze to death. My mother said, "We have to get out of here," so we came out here.
LM: How old were you then?
UR: 15 or 16 when I first got out here...but I was lucky. I heard about an audition in high school. I auditioned for the first trumpet player in Jack Armstrong's All American Band in Monterey Park [suburb of Los Angeles], and I got that gig, on Wednesday night. It paid five bucks, which was a lot of money in 1937, a lot of money. We could live on that. Our furnished house was twelve dollars a month. Both my sisters slept in my mom's bedroom; I slept on the davenport. We had a refrigerator and a stove, so we were home free.
LM: So, you had your first professional gig.
UR: I was lucky because I didn't know, I thought everybody could play high Gs. I came down here and nobody could read. High C was a high note. I heard Cootie Williams or other guys play on the radio in Montana, and imitated them. There was a limit to what I could do; I couldn't run out and play football, so I played trumpet.
[Then] around 1938, '39, I heard about trumpeters getting together in Bronson Canyon [part of Griffith Park; near the famous "Hollywood" sign] on Saturday mornings. I went over there and I played with the guys -Frank Zinzer and especially Larry Sullivan, first trumpeter at Warner Bros. I could play higher than he could, and read just as fast. I was 16, 17 years of age. That's why I got my first gig in 1940.
LM: You were a good reader?
UR: I read well, I read fast. I learned very young. It's just mathematics, really.
LM: You didn't think there was anything special about your abilities...
UR: No, no, I thought everybody could play equal to me and better.
LM: When you started playing with these guys at Bronson Canyon, that started getting your name around?
UR: Yeah, that's right, I got other calls to play. Buddy Pepper was a young actor that had a band at the Paramount Theatre here. I was the only kid there, too.
LM: Were you still going to school?
UR: Yeah. I just went through high school, that's all. I had to start working.
LM: What was your first movie experience?
UR: 1940, at Warners. It was exciting.
LM: How big was the orchestra?
UR; A symphonic band - forty pieces, I want to say. The next picture, somebody got ill at the last minute, and I got a call to play. Later on, when I was on the road with Sonny Dunham's band, a guy named Fat Wendt was first trumpet player at Columbia. He offered me the job of third trumpet at Columbia and I turned it down. I thought it was too corny in 1940.
LM: Because you had a jazz sensibility?
UR: Along with classical. I had a lot of classical training. At 14 years of age, I won first place in classical playing in Montana.
LM: Yes, but you appreciated jazz...
UR: I like 'em both...
LM: No reason not to. But you turned down a steady studio job.
UR: Yeah, I did.
LM: How long were you out with Sonny Dunham's band?
UR: Off and on for over two years. I had a busted lip, that's the reason I gave up. I had a big blister on my lip and I finally had to stop playing and found a doctor who cut off the callus. I laid off for a month, [then] I could play, but it wouldn't vibrate. That's the only time I saw my teacher weep, when he heard me try to play like that. I got the biggest mouthpiece I could find; that helped a lot, too, and within a month I played pretty well.
LM: That must have been scary.
UR: I almost gave up. I even went to the Lockheed Employment to get a job there and the guy said, "Come back tomorrow." Then that afternoon I found thai doctor, so I didn't go back to Lockheed.
LM: What was your next job?
UR: I think Alvino Rey came into town and they'd heard about me. We played the Orpheum Theatre.
LM: That was in the days of movie theatres having 2 live show between films.
UR: That's right.
LM: How many shows a day would you play? Do you remember?
UR: Well, that was the problem. [For instance,] we were playing the Adams Theatre in Newark and the Meadowbrook [nightclub] at the same time. We played the theatre from nine 'til nine at night-six shows - then we played from ten 'til two at Meadowbrook. You play a lot, but I had the chops, pretty good and strong.
LM: You can only do that when you're young, right? When did you first meet up with Billy May?
UR: 1940, when Glenn Miller came out here they played the Palladium [and] Sonny Dunham would play one set. We didn't see each other 'til 1943 when Billy got the job with Ozzie Nelson's band; we were playing side by side, he was playing third trumpet and I was playing first trumpet. And one day for some reason, the violin player who was in charge of music for Ozzie Nelson took exception to the fact that Ozzie wanted to change [something] and, you know, [he's] entitled to change it, he's a musician, too. [The violinist] got fired and Billy became the leader, so I started working in 1943 with Billy.
LM: That was his big break, too. Was Billy a natural leader?
UR: Yeah, he was. He's got such a great sense of humor, in everything he does, just smoothes things out so well. And he didn't mind if Ozzie changed things. Then he and John Scott [Trotter] were very close and that's why I think the next year, the end of 43' or '44, I was [playing] third trumpet [on the Bing Crosby radio show] and that was a big thing. I think people heard me there 'cause I was a dumb young kid playing high notes that I shouldn't have been. I'd play Fs or high Gs, and he used to have letters from back east [asking] "Who's playing the trumpet?"
LM: I just listened to a Crosby show from the late 40s where he singled you out after you played a nice solo.
UR: He was very good about that. You couldn't converse with him, though. A very private man.
LM: But appreciative of musicians.
UR: He sure was. That was great.
LM: So you had a steady gig on the Crosby Show...
UR: Along with the Jack Benny Show, a lot of different shows, the ones you make the most money on. And I didn't want to work Saturdays — I'm a track and field nut, so I used to give up shows and they couldn't
understand that. 1 even went to the Olympics in 1948 in London.
LM: So radio was your bread and butter for a long time.
UR: Yeah, a long time, yeah, 'til '49. I used to play other studios, too. Gordon Jenkins and different guys would use me, I could play high Fs, and the only other guy who did that too, at that time, was Zeke Zarchy. But I could also play pretty good classical at the same time. That's why I was being asked to play different movies. I didn't realize I was really being auditioned by MGM, 'cause they were going to get rid of [Rafael] Mendes and hire me. It took me a long time to realize it until they finally said, "We want you out here as a third trumpet" and I turned it down four times. I said, "I want to have it listed that I want to go the Olympics in '52, and I don't want to work on Saturdays." Anyhow, after the fourth or fifth time, I said "If you write that down, I'll come out..." So I started in 1949.
LM: They met your terms.
UR: Yeah. I guess enough guys wanted me. Dr. Rozsa and a guy named Adolph Deutsch didn't like the classical playing the way [Mendes did it]. It sounded like Mendes and the orchestra, [or] it sounded like Ziggy Elman's orchestra. Ziggy couldn't really fit in as a classical player. Played great jazz, you know? But, you know when Ziggy worked with Paul Weston, [some called it] Ziggy Elman and his band, and some of those leaders don't want to have [that].
LM: So what does a musician do to blend in?
UR: Well, in a symphonic orchestra, there's a certain colloquialism. How do you hold notes? How do you end notes gracefully? The magic of sound is most important, so sound is the most prevalent thing that you hear and it overcomes the articulation you have. A lot of guys have a lot of articulation 'cause that's the easy way to play, but you want a big wonderful sound in classical playing.
LM: So you finally said yes to MGM in 1949.
UR: Yeah, you had to sign a contract. You could still work other places if the leader liked you, so [if] Andre Previn or Lennie Hayton or Johnny Green worked someplace else, you worked with them. But [they wanted] your allegiance there first. Then they stopped it because the union didn't give [the studios] a break at all for the fact that they had musicians [under contract].
LM: Was that a fifty-two week contract?
UR: Fifty-two, yeah.
LM: For some people, that was the ultimate goal, wasn't it?
UR: It was, yeah. Everybody aimed for that, especially at MGM, since they had most of the musicals.
LM: Tell me about working with Johnny Green.
UR: Johnny Green lost every job he ever had, 'cause his ego was so strong he'd just take over. I saw that when I did the U.S. Steel Show with him in 1946, I think. He got fired from that job. And he got fired from MGM also, he wasn't allowed on the whole lot for a long time there. Dore Schary [had] offered Lennie Hayton the job, and Johnny Green was second choice to be head of music at MGM. He wasn't a great writer, he was a good songwriter. He talked big about being a good conductor, but always something happened. [At] the Hollywood Bowl he'd mess up, do something wrong and you just had to take over and try to get him out of it. It was just too bad. Anyhow, he got fired. Primarily Arthur Freed was the one that really got him fired, because Roger Edens used to do the music for Arthur Freed productions. They finally had a cop at each door — there were two doors on a movie stage-just to keep Johnny Green off the stage so he wouldn't come and tell Roger how to do things. Like, "The bassoon should be louder here," or "You should make that a triplet" and so forth. Just trite things to show his authority, you know.
The only one that really put him down was [Dimitri] Tiomkin. [Green] would try [to interrupt] maybe for 20 minutes [and Tiomkin would say] "Is someone trying to get my attention?" You could hear, "Dimi, Dimi."
He'd say, "Listen," and give him three or four things. [And Tiomkin would say] "Don't you have better things to do than that?" So Johnny walked off. We did one picture, and Johnny Green was going to conduct, and by that time, he had changed [his name]. "Don't call me Johnny, call me John." And it's hard to tell an egotist, "You've got to listen to other people, too." I tried to do that gently but it never helped. He got fired from Desilu for doing the same thing. I was there when he got fired from Desilu, and Desi, literally, took ahold of his pants and got his shirt and tossed him off the stage. It was sad, it was sad. He did the same thing with Stan Wilson at Universal, [when he] told Stan Wilson, "You don't know anything about music," and he got fired from that.
LM: Talk about the preparations for doing one of those big musicals.
UR: We just came and read it, that's all.
LM: While they were rehearsing, they just used a pianist, right?
UR: The piano and sometimes a drum. The guys used to kid about it,
but they think that the suicides of at least five pianists [were attributable to] Fred Astaire 'cause he'd go over and over again, over and over again … where Gene [Kelly] was happy, and having a great time.
LM: Would someone like Gene Kelly ever come to a session?
UR: Occasionally, but not very often. He was always there for whatever he
had to do, of course. We'd just come [in] and read it. You were expected to
read it and not make mistakes, first time.
LM: There were so many great composers there and orchestrators, but not
every composer was necessarily a great conductor. Talk about that
UR: Bronislaw Kaper — a good writer — couldn't conduct at all, and it was a tragic thing. He finally got a show on his own, maybe by 1963, '64 — the FBI show at Warners. He thought he could conduct this one show and he didn't prepare it with click tracks, which he should have done. We had a three-hour session; it went seven hours, and he had to pay the extra money for that, so gradually he was just out of business. Hugo Friedhofer couldn't
conduct, same thing, you know? Couldn't conduct.
LM: But did he know he couldn't conduct?
UR.: Yeah, Hugo did. They both did but, you know,[in TV], they don't have the money to [afford having] somebody else [to conduct] so that was both their kind of demise. But with click tracks at least you have something worked out. Andre [Previn]conducted for a lot of guys, you know, even some of the good conductors. He [subbed] for Roger Edens, for the one you just mentioned, Kaper.
LM: When you met Andre was he still a teenager?
UR: Yeah, a little bit younger than I was. When I came out there in '49, he had been conducting for Bronislaw.
LM: Did you work at all with Scott Bradley on the MGM cartoons? I'm a big fan of his.
UR: Yeah, a good writer, did a good job and kept you on your toes, you know?
LM: Those scores are very energetic.
UR: They sure are. They're fun to play. We had a good time doing it. Nice guy, too. [And with conductors] you used to say, he's a nice guy, let's go help him.
LM: So the personalities of these people really had an effect on the music...
UR: They sure did. Well, that's what Andre's alluding to in his book. George Stoll, he'd make a mistake and leave. He's talking about George in the book, but he never mentions that's who he is, though. Anybody in the whole orchestra could correct him, but we wouldn't help him at all, because George dealt very demeaningly with the band. The band was always wrong because he'd get way behind. We used to say, "Kem Tone today?" or "Dutch Boy," what's he doing today?" [Here Uan imitates Stoll conducting, looking like a house painter making big, long strokes - Ed.] But you had to get through that, you had to play it no matter what - maybe encourage him to go faster, especially if you had another gig someplace else and wanted to get out. He was one of the worst offenders.
LM: How long would it take to score, say, a seven-minute cartoon?
UR: Three hours. Sometimes really two. We all read well; everybody read well, [it was] expected. The soloist might make mistakes, but never the orchestra. We all read quickly the first time through and you'd read it to see if there's any mistakes in the copy or the original composition, because sometimes they made mistakes, too, the composers. Most guys did it [in the] first or second take.
LM: And how long might it take to record a feature film score?
UR: Oh, depends how much [there is]. Sometimes you might have 38 minutes of music. Some guys go fast, Andre went pretty fast, you know? But Georgie Stoll literally might take, four times as long as anybody else to do that. It was so sad with Hugo Friedhofer, we had click tracks and he couldn't follow those! We're all through playing, he's still conducting. But a great writer, really, he was a great writer.
LM: When you scored movies, what time would you start recording?
UR: It all depends, Alfred Newman - eight o'clock. Most of the time, nine o'clock.
LM: In the morning.
UR: Yeah. Al would go early. For Bing Crosby, seven o'clock, then he could go play golf. One time, six-thirty.
LM: Last week my wife and I were channel surfing and TCM was showing An American in Paris. It was toward the end of the movie and, of course, we had to watch the ballet. It's an amazing piece of work.
UR: It all worked out well. It all gelled, all came beautifully. Gene Kelly's so talented — he'll listen to what's going on and go with the flow. Where [with] Fred Astaire you had to do one way and that's it. Sometimes, during the break, like, a four-beat break, he might come in a little different than a fifty-piece orchestra, but the orchestra was wrong, he was never wrong.
The love theme for An American in Paris [was orchestrated by Conrad Salinger.] Connie Salinger was one of the great writers of all time. In fact, Leo Arnaud brought back a letter [that] he read to me. Connie wanted to meet Maurice Ravel, you know? And he went back there and worked with him a few weeks through Leo Arnaud's introduction. Leo came over from France to work with Fred Waring and he didn't like it. Fred Waring's a businessman, not a musician. So he wound up at MGM. Anyhow, Connie went back there and studied with Ravel in Paris. Then Leo had this letter he got [from Ravel] that said, "You know, I learned more from Connie Salinger than I ever knew myself."
UR: Connie's a wonderful guy, a good writer. He never got the credit he should have, because he [did] all the small, little things mostly, so charming. How to have the bells, how to add the flute with the violins, [at] just the right time. He was so aware of the niceties of what music makes so settling.
LM: If I played you some sample soundtracks, let's say, from the 50s, let's say, one from Fox, one from Paramount, one from Warner Bros., one from MGM, would you be able to tell the difference?
UR: Sometimes I can, yeah.
LM: What would set each one apart for you?
UR: It's the orchestra and the room, both of them, that makes the difference. We're lucky in a sense that with brass especially, you can make your own sound that's a little more personal than any other instrument. 'Cause it's your body, the way that you aim there, or hold your air, your interaction with it, the way that you exude the sound in there. The trumpet or trombone only amplifies what your body says. Where with a violin, that's hard, unless you are talking technique. And sometimes you can tell the difference. I can tell you Manny Klein's tone, or Frank Zinzer's tone. And I can tell my tone, a lot of guys can tell my tone, too. They call up and say, "I just heard you play on so-an-so."
LM: And there's also the sound of the room?
UR: Warners had the most "live" sound, good live sound. And they changed the setting at MGM, which helped a lot. That wasn't quite as large but had a wonderful warmth to it and more life than it had before. RKO was very dull, very dull.
LM: Tell me about some of the different conductors that you worked with a lot, the composer-conductors, like Miklos Rozsa.
UR: A good conductor, knew what he wanted and knew what to write for the producer, but he couldn't write a wide variety of things. I always thought his romantic sounds lacked something. That's my own personal opinion. He did a fine job, [but] didn't understand, [since] he never played on the road with a band, that some things were more difficult than others. For instance, when you hold whole notes, that's the most difficult thing for a trumpet player or trombone to do. Finally I said, "Dr. Rozsa, give us a couple of minutes so we can] get the blood back in the lip." He said, 'Well, on the third page, you have all the whole notes, you can rest during the whole notes." It's like holding weights, you know, the weights get heavier and heavier but you
can't put them down, you just hold them. But, he was a good writer.
LM: Tell me about Adolph Deutsch.
UR: Good writer, did a lot of wonderful things,especially for singers and had good know-how;listened to reason, too. He'd come back and talk to you and ask, "What do you think? Am I getting a good feel here?" Very few guys who could do that. [He was] somebody who listened.
LM: What do you think were Andre Previn's strengths?
UR: Just being a great musician. He had a great sense of humor and [was] a great conductor. He conducted so well, he could read it off the first time and time it at the same time. Just a great musician.
LM: Having the musicians' respect, would that make a difference in the session, yes?
UR: Oh yeah, we tried hard for Andre. There was no fooling around there, no phoning it in, 'cause he was very ardent. Most guys are a big show, you know, Leonard Bernstein showed off for the audience, or the worst one, my God, was Paul Whiteman. He did a show out here two years in a row, '47, '48, a summer replacement show [on radio, and] he wasn't there at all for the rehearsal. Just came and followed the orchestra then turned around to the audience when he cut it off. A big showman, you know, big showman.
LM: But Previn knew that he could trust you guys, so [he] didn't have to push.
UR: And he was also so good to us about [giving us] the inside job. He was the only guy who would ever come back and tell us the inside story on what
LM: How about Alfred Newman?
UR: Just a great musician, a great writer for music players, too. He took time to make music important, you know? He always had good taste, The poor guy, though [he did] the Academy Awards [broadcast] only one time. I never saw him so nervous. He was scared to death, and he knocked over all his music. For the first half hour of the show, I just had to take control, you know. We had five pieces of music, three in one spot, two on the chair beside you. And as soon as they announced the winner, you had to put that one up front and play it. So I just took over and started playing 'cause he's down on the floor, trying to collect his music. It was sad, he was just so nervous. He hadn't done a live show for years, you know.
LM: Am I right that if we leave Johnny Green out of the equation, Newman was the only musician who was also the head of a studio music department?
UR: That's right. Vice President at one time.
LM: Did you ever work for Bernard Herrmann?
UR: Yeah, lots. O gosh, he was always so unthankful. It's his attitude, you know, the music was everything. He even did, one trumpet and sixteen bassoons where the were contrabassoons regular bassoons... and it never was good enough for him. He finally did Taxi Driver, remember that picture? And he [wouldn't] conduct. Finally, I said something because he just sat there. Jack Hayes was the orchestrator so Jack said, "Let's just start playing, you know, let's do something," so we just did it and we played cues, got through it, and he sat in the booth and said very little. I guess we broke for lunch and came back and played later on, the jazz scene. So-called jazz. You know, I play ersatz jazz; I'm not a great jazz player, not at all, but I play what the leader wants. You know, you're there to please them. So he I came out and thanked us, thanked me especially, "Thank you, Uan." Uan — he used my name! My God, after all these years, maybe sixteen years —
LM: — and then he died.
UR: And he died that night. First time he ever thanked us. Ironic, at least.
LM: What was your impression of Arthur Freed?
UR: Good man, but he's a songwriter, so he had Roger Edens actually write [scores] for him. And Roger was a good piano player, good writer, and a nice guy.
LM: A lot of people say that they could never figure out Arthur Freed, but they realize his secret was hiring talented people.
UR: That's right, he hired talent. He knew good talent. Had a big orchestra, and wasn't afraid to take time, so it worked out fine.
LM: How about Victor Young? Did you ever work with him? He's one of my favorites
UR: Oh, all-time favorites. I did the Western show with him, remember the radio show? So efficient, he knew what to do. Great songs he wrote. And just great with a stick. A great musician, one of the great writers of all time.
LM: But no overtime because he would get it done so quickly.
UR: Yeah. He just wanted to play poker. Just get it done, get out of here.
LM: You know, of course, that you're famous for that solo on Chinatown that you did for Jerry Goldsmith.
UR: I couldn't believe that. I got back from an NCAA track meet in Austin, Texas, but before [I went] I called and the call at Paramount was three trumpets, so 1 thought I'm OK, I can hide, you know? I got back and it's dangerous business, because I hadn't played my horn that much at all, just watched the track meet. I walk in and it was one trumpet and forty string players, four pianos and drummers. We had to do a lot of things because they had changed it a lot. Robert Evans had done [the score] before with the guy that did A Chorus Line, not a very nice man. Some guys walked out on him back in New York because he'd insult people. Robert Evans threw the whole score out.
So, they had to have started Monday and Tuesday, we got through Tuesday night about ten o'clock, and we had to have the whole movie back for a preview, on a plane Friday night, in New York City. And I never thought it would be a big hit. It was nothing to play really. A lot of people, I guess, thought it was Bobby Hackett that played this solo. So I never thought about it, then I got a call from Paramount, [saying] "We have hundreds of calls here about who played the solo." I couldn't believe it. They finally put my name on the album, I guess.
LM: All those years, did you ever go to hear one of your scores? Did you take any pride in going into a theatre and hearing your work?
UR: Well, no, 'cause I always find complaints about it. "I should have done that better." I didn't enjoy it. Not much of a fan of myself.
LM: I suppose that was an advantage when you worked in radio: you had no chance to do it over again, so it had to be right the first time.
UR: Oh, sure. They called me Fearless Fosdick. It was fun; I dared myself. I welcome challenges, you know? That's the only growth you have, when you challenge yourself... do something a little better, a little more."

Callahan: I've Got To Do A Better Job Calling More Runs | Dallas Cowboys
Thursday, September 19, 2013 3:07 PM CDT
The whirlwind of questioning about the Cowboys' offense – from playcalling to the ineffectiveness of the running game – turned its attention to Callahan on Thursday after moving past Jason Garrett and Tony Romo earlier in the week. Read
"We've got to do a better job -- I've got to do a better job calling more runs," he said. "So that's something that we're working hard on."
As has widely been speculated, the return of Brian Waters to a large in-game role may help rejuvenate the rushing attack. Callahan said Waters has adapted quickly – an impressive accomplishment, given the required cohesion between offensive linemen -- because he is familiar with the Cowboys' system.
"We like our line -- our line is physical. But we've got to do a better job calling it, and I've got to do a better job personally, and that's my responsibility – one that I own up to and one that we all want to get better at," he said. "But we're working hard, our guys still believe and it's still early on in this season to build our run game and get to where we want to go. But as we all know, talk is cheap and we've got to put it into action." Read

"?Cuánto cuestan las fresas?" you ask, proud of your linguistic skills – the complete sentence, the verb that is properly conjugated, the Spanish 101 vocabulary that you remembered at just the right moment.
But instead of smiling and answering your question, the green grocer stares at you blankly, as if you have two horns growing out of the top of your head: "?Eh?" It's the reaction that every foreigner learns to know and to dread.
Your problem isn't that you have a faulty memory – in Spain they would have understood you perfectly – it's just that you've stumbled across one of the many linguistic variations in Spanish. Whereas in many parts of the Spanish-speaking world "fresas" is indeed the correct word for strawberries, in Argentina they are more commonly known as "frutillas."
But that's not to say that the native speakers from these different countries can't understand one another – because they can. The differences between their ways of speaking the language are most likely to be a source of amusement and interest than anything else, something along the lines of: "You mean you guys say 'frutilla'? Really? Because here we say 'fresa'."

Business As Usual Or Taking The Day Off: Workplace Recognition Of Juneteenth Varies - NPR - Hoot n Holler
Business As Usual Or Taking The Day Off: Workplace Recognition Of Juneteenth Varies – NPR
Some workers have today off to observe Juneteenth, the day that celebrates when enslaved people in Texas learned about the Emancipation Proclamation. This week, Congress moved quickly to make it a federal holiday. But federal holidays aren't mandatory in most workplaces. And whether or not people actually get the day off varies widely. NPR's Camila Domonoske reports.
CAMILA DOMONOSKE, BYLINE: The federal government declared Juneteenth a holiday on Thursday, and many states quickly followed suit. When Alesia Jones heard the news…
ALESIA JONES: Well, I was excited to hear that. And I'm surprised that it happened so quickly, even more surprised it happened so quickly in the state of Alabama.
DOMONOSKE: But Jones couldn't just be excited. She runs HR at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
DOMONOSKE: And there wasn't enough time for this year. The university and its hospital were open today and they weren't alone. The post office was open. Stock markets were trading. Some courts were open. School districts, well, they were all over the place. Lots of places had to make a snap decision this week. But some companies had already decided to take the day off. Rosa Nunez is the head of diversity, equity and inclusion at the law firm Foley Hoag, which is, in fact, closed today. I interrupted her day off. She said making Juneteenth a paid holiday is more than just a workplace perk.

A few-Axle Dodge Dakota-Dependent RV Is A person Unusual Chook - F1 Actual
Several fashionable motorhomes try to disguise the point that they are motorhomes, infusing the inside with high-good quality elements, tons of tech, and other creature comforts. On the other hand, RVs weren't constantly designed to be house-like. This 1992 Serro Scotty Class-C motorhome does not check out to hide its true rustic self. It is for sale on Craigslist, and it can not only take you to the wilderness but also take you back in time to 1992.
The Serro Scotty Class-C is a time capsule based on the boxy 1st-generation Dodge Dakota. It appears to be pristine on the outside – even the 37 Anniversary Version sticker is even now quite visible. The exceptional affliction proceeds inside, the place occupants are satisfied with a dissimilar combination of resources and shades. The cushions are as blue as blue can be, and a stark contrast to the white dinette desk, wooden cabinets, silver kitchen backsplash, and multi-colour wallpaper. The rest room options pink walls paired with the odd wallpaper.
According to the listing, the Scotty measures 21 toes long (6.4 meters) and is run by a Dodge 5.2-liter V8 that pairs with a 4-speed automatic gearbox. The odometer reads 86,000 miles. It subverts its smaller measurement by such as a large amount – a full-measurement bathroom with a shower, toilet, and sink and a nicely-outfitted kitchen that functions a two-burner stove, a sink, a microwave, and a fridge. It also capabilities an Onan generator.
It's a "real satisfaction to generate," states the listing. Every thing functions, including the chilly-blowing air conditioning. The motorhome arrives with a clear and distinct title for $19,500. It is not inexpensive, even though it does function the necessities. More persons than at any time are wanting for resourceful techniques to get away and turning to RVs, motorhomes, and journey trailers. A classic motorhome with all of the necessary luxuries could be best for the suitable human being or a loved ones. Excellent luck acquiring an USB port, though

Senator Blunt Marks Tax Day
U.S. Senator Roy Blunt (Mo.) marks Tax Day on April 17, 2012.
Democrats Embrace Political Gimmicks Instead of Real Solutions
Our country is currently facing serious economic challenges -- high unemployment, stratospheric levels of debt, high gas prices -- and members of Congress should be focused on offering serious solutions. Instead, Democrats have chosen to offer political gimmicks like the Buffett Tax, which would discourage investment just when our nation really needs it and do almost nothing to reduce our enormous debt. Improving our economy requires both parties to cooperate on things like lowering gas prices by tapping our vast domestic energy resources or eliminating burdensome government regulations to make it easier for small businesses to create jobs. Unfortunately, as long as Democrats are more focused on winning political points than on solving our nation's problems, our economy -- and the American people -- will continue to suffer.

Interpretation and Effect of Forum Selection After Standard Fire Insurance Co. v. Knowles
By McGlinchey Stafford on April 21, 2017
Posted in Legal Publications and Articles
“CAFA-nated”: A Jittery Interpretation of Forum Selection in Standard Fire Insurance Co. v. Knowles, 68 Ark. L. Rev. 511 , 530 (2015).
In her article, author Jessica K. Pruitt, analyzes the interpretation and effect of forum-selection after the United States Supreme Court’s ruling in Standard Fire Insurance Co. v. Knowles. Pruitt’s article explores the U.S. Supreme Court’s forum-shopping jurisprudence, which shows the Court’s distaste for the gamesmanship of plaintiffs’ lawyers who try to defeat the basic principles of CAFA, and keep their class action lawsuits in state court.
In Standard Fire Insurance Co. v. Knowles, 133 S. Ct. 1345 (2013), the Supreme Court interpreted CAFA’s jurisdictional provisions for the first time. CAFA gives the federal district courts original jurisdiction over class action lawsuits where the amount-in-controversy exceeds $5 million. In Knowles, however, the Supreme Court ruled that the named plaintiffs cannot avoid federal jurisdiction by stipulating (prior to class certification) that the damages would not exceed CAFA’s $5 million amount-in-controversy threshold. The opinion confirmed the Supreme Court’s desire to keep the plaintiffs’ lawyers from unilaterally attempting to keep class actions in state court. (Editor’s Note: see CAFA law blog analysis of Standard Fire posted on April 12, 2013).
Pruitt notes that traditionally, the United States Supreme Court has embraced the “the plaintiff is a the master of the complaint” rule, and has held that if a plaintiff does not desire to try his case in the federal court, he may resort to the expedient of suing for less than the jurisdictional amount, although he would be justly entitled to more. The Supreme Court has found that in such situations, the defendant cannot remove the action to the federal court.
Pruitt, however, notes that CAFA dramatically limited the ability of plaintiffs’ lawyers to keep the class action litigation in state courts. Instead of the normal presumption that the plaintiff is the master of his or her complaint, the CAFA sought to eliminate gamesmanship and forum shopping of class venues. A major premise of CAFA is that a federal forum is a superior venue for resolving class actions with multistate aspects. In fact, President George W. Bush commented that before CAFA, trial lawyers were able to drag defendants from all over the country into sympathetic local courts, even if those businesses have done nothing wrong. CAFA aims to fix the system.
Pruitt notes that the class action bar’s preference for state court stems from the willingness of state court judges to certify classes; and certain courts have become more appealing. For example, one report showed that the rate of class actions filings in Madison County, Illinois was around 20 times the national average. In 2012, Madison County made up only 0.0008 percent of the nation’s population, but the jurisdiction handled 25 percent or more of the nation’s asbestos cases.
Pruitt also notes that Miller County, Arkansas, is known as a favorable jurisdiction for class action plaintiffs, but that corporate defendants view it as “rife with abusive litigation tactics and plaintiff-friendly local judges.” After CAFA, Miller County lawyers needed a means of keeping their lucrative class action lawsuits before the state court judges, and the stipulation at issue in Knowles provided precisely such a means.
Although, the Knowles opinion did not explicitly address Miller County or the concept of forum shopping, Pruitt notes that both concerns played a significant role during oral arguments. During oral argument, Pruitt points that the justices clearly had forum shopping on their minds. The mysterious absence of any mention of forum shopping in the opinion leads to an important question–why would the United States Supreme Court choose to omit such a significant policy consideration? Pruitt responds that avoiding an underlying issue was not a maneuver unfamiliar to the Court – Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544 (2007), and Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662 (2009) served as two examples of the Court’s unspoken objectives.
In both cases, the Supreme Court interpreted Rule 8 of the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure, which governs the general rules of pleading. Twombly involved treble damages in civil antitrust cases, and in Iqbal, the plaintiffs alleged that federal officials violated their constitutional rights following their arrests for suspected involvement with terrorist groups. Both cases reached the Supreme Court because of the novel issues presented with respect to pleading requirements. The true intent behind the applicable changes to pleading requirements was arguably to curb excessive costs of private-party discovery. In both cases, the Supreme Court limited federal jurisdiction, however, policy considerations did not appear to be a motivating factor in either opinion.
Pruitt notes that one potential problem with the Supreme Court sidestepping the forum shopping issue in Knowles was that some have characterized the decision as a technical interpretation of the CAFA amount-in-controversy requirement. Pruitt believes therefore, that the lower courts might interpret the ruling as an unremarkable, straightforward regarding one specific element of CAFA, as opposed to a case that stands for a larger policy proposition.
Pruitt writes that because the holding in Knowles was so narrow, the lower courts have limited guidance on the amount of evasion permitted under CAFA. As it stands now, plaintiffs’ lawyers clearly cannot make a binding stipulation to limit damages with respect to an entire class, but it is difficult to extract additional direction from the opinion. Pruitt notes that it remains to be seen how broadly the federal district courts will interpret Knowles opinion. Pruitt cites to an Arkansas case as an example of how the lower courts can apply Knowles to deny plaintiffs’ motions to remand.
In Basham v. American National County Mutual Insurance Co., 2012 WL 3886189 (W.D. Ark. Sept. 6, 2012), the defendants sought to remain in federal court on CAFA grounds; they also alleged that the judges sitting on the Miller County Circuit Court routinely made unfair procedural rulings. The United States District Court for the Western District of Arkansas ruled that the plaintiffs had capped their amount-in-controversy sufficiently to create a legal certainty that they would not recover more than the federal jurisdictional minimum, and granted the plaintiffs’ motion to remand. After Knowles, however, the Eighth Circuit reversed and remanded the case to determine the amount-in-controversy. On remand the District Court issued an opinion finding that the amount-in-controversy exceeded $5 million, and retained jurisdiction over the action.
In Day v. Persels & Associates, 729 F.3d 1309 (11th Cir. 2013), the Court considered the broader implications of the narrow Knowles holding and held that if a class representative cannot enter into a binding stipulation regarding damages, then it followed that the class representative also cannot object to a Magistrate Judge hearing the case. Another interesting case according to the author is Dart Cherokee Basin Operating Co. v. Owens, 135 S. Ct. 547 (2014), where the Supreme Court held that a defendant’s Notice of Removal must only include a plausible allegation that the amount-in-controversy exceeded the jurisdictional threshold, it need not contain evidentiary submissions. Pruitt points that this ruling provided support for the idea that such Notice of Removals need not contain evidence of amount-in-controversy, rather, a mere allegation pursuant to a general pleading standard of Rule 8(a) may be sufficient, thus expanding Knowles. (Editor’s Note: an Article by Rollo, Ferachi and Crowson is posted here).
Pruitt concludes by noting that the United States Supreme Court is determined to effectuate the intent of Congress in preventing forum shopping in class action lawsuits. Although, the Knowles holding was narrow, post-Knowles CAFA jurisdiction cases have demonstrated that federal courts will continue to ensure that that the policy behind CAFA is implemented, regardless of whether or not the court explicitly mentions such policy considerations in its opinions.

FLOYD ON F1: Can anyone stop Hamilton's title charge? - Tech Weekly
After Brazil and Qatar F1 Grands Prix, it is obvious Mercedes now has the upper hand when it comes to engine performance, leaving Red Bull and Max Verstappen in the proverbial dust. Lewis Hamilton's new engine, taken prior to Brazil, was well worth its five-second penalty. Let's not go into the rear wing issue which pushed the Englishman to the back of the grid… But his brilliant drive to victory was breathtaking, as was the incredible power of the W12's new power unit.Doubtlessly, many in the F1 pit lane – particularly those also using the Mercedes engine – wonder why…

if you have gotten to this the fourth book in the series you should know about the fifth book, I'm about to impulsively listen to it right after this
I love this entire series and to those finishing this book I advise the rest of the series
The best in badly translated Russian LitRPG
I really can't say. The first few books were good, but now I'm mostly listening for the hilarious results of bad translation, the constant disjointed non-sequitors, and the general confusion.
Eh, I'll finish the series, then call it good, I think.
It's like Mystery Science Theater 3000. A bad translation turns what I assume was good dialogue in Russian, into "you set us up the bomb!" and "all your base are belong to us!" The "weird little nerd is actually the Chosen One" story lines these sorts of books are based on can be really funny, when the translator clearly didn't give a crap about continuity, realism or good prose.

$200 a barrel oil - GreenCarGuide.co.uk
Home|Green car news|Car Emissions & Environmental Issues|$200 a barrel oil
Opec, the oil producing cartel, has warned that the price of crude could keep rising to reach $200 a barrel.
On Monday, US crude oil hit a new record of $119.93 a barrel. Prices rose over fears about the disruption caused by the Grangemouth refinery strike that shut down a key North Sea pipeline, and supply problems in Nigeria following pipeline attacks. Attacks on Royal Dutch Shell's pipelines in Nigeria led to a drop in production of about 169,000 barrels per day for shipments in April and May.
The price of oil has been rising steadily since January, when it broke through the $100-a-barrel mark. Prices have risen nearly 25% this year, and this week they passed the previous record mark of $119.90 a barrel achieved last Friday. Opec blamed the increasing prices on the falling value of the US dollar, which makes other assets, including oil, more attractive for foreign investors.
The Ineos refinery at Grangemouth provides steam and electricity for the BP-run pipeline from the Forties oil fields in the North Sea, providing a third of UK oil output.
Grangemouth's closure caused up to 70 platforms in the North Sea to either shut down or reduce production of oil, resulting in the loss of 700,000 barrels of oil a day. BP has said it will take weeks for the refinery to return to full capacity.
Some petrol stations in Scotland and northern England introduced rationing or raised prices.
In addition to regular attacks on oil facilities in Nigeria and the weak US dollar, general concerns about the ability of supply to meet global demand have been a key factor in this year's price rises.
However oil producers' body Opec says there is no immediate need to lift production levels before 2012.
At the same time, oil companies Shell and BP have made huge first-quarter profits thanks to the rising price of oil.
Shell made profits of $7.8bn (£3.9bn) in the first three months of the year, up from $6.9bn a year ago. BP saw its profits rise 48% to $6.588bn (£3.31bn), from $4.4bn.
In January, Shell reported annual profits of $27.56bn (£13.9bn) for 2007, a record for a UK-listed company.
But remember that from petrol that costs £1.08 per litre, 33p goes to the oil company, 9p to the retailer, 50p is fuel duty and 16p is VAT so 66p, or 61%, goes to the government.
So does anyone yet see a need to accelerate efforts to find a replacement to oil?
Come and see the latest vehicles that use less oil than most, at Green-Car-Guide Live! 2008, the UK's largest Green Motor Show.

Notification and Guide on the Control and Prevention of Red Imported Fire Ants2019/01/28
Contact Person : Notification and Gui
Red imported fire ants around Jan Qi Biomedical Engineering Building on Bo-ai Campus was discovered. The intrusion of the fire ants has been dealt with at the present time. Please do not panic. If you spot the presence of fire ants, please keep your distance from them.
How to avoid a fire ant's bite?
Red imported fire ants would build anthills 10 cm higher than the ground. Conspicuous anthills, which indicate the formation of a mature ant nest, could reveal the intrusion of fire ants. If anyone steps on a nest of fire ants, they would swarm out of the nest to attack the enemy. If you spot an ant nest in the wild, you should always keep your distance from it and avoid stepping on it accidentally. When you spot fire ants or anthills, we suggest that you leave the spot as soon as possible and report your discovery to related divisions. If you discover fire ants or anthills on campus, please report your discovery immediately to the Division of General Affairs (Mr. Shen; ext.: 31480).
How to cope with a fire ant's bite?
Concerning a fire ant's attack on a human, a worker ant launches its attack by tightly biting into the skin with its mandibles and continuously stinging the skin seven to eight times with its stinger. A great amount of venom in the fire ant's poison sac then enters the skin and causes a severe burning sensation. This kind of burning sensation, which is accompanied by an itching sensation, will last for more than one hour. After four hours, a white pustule will form on the stung spot on the skin. The pustule will disappear in about ten days for most people, but some scars will be left. If the pustule is broken, reinfection constantly occurs afterward. Some people with allergies may suffer from anaphylactic shock after being bitten by a fire ant. If the anaphylactic shock is severe, it could result in death.
Basic steps to deal with the bite:
Apply an ice pack to the bitten and stung spot on the skin and then wash the spot with clean water and soap.
In general, symptoms of pruritus and swelling can be relieved by applying topical ointments containing steroids to the affected spot or by taking antihistamine. However, the use of these drugs should be guided by a doctor's prescription.
One should avoid reinfection and pustule breaks as much as possible after being bitten and stung.
If the person bitten and stung by a fire ant has allergies in his or her medical history, or the person suffers any severe symptoms including systemic pruritus, hives, an inflamed face, shortness of breath, chest pain, tachycardia, or any other special physical reactions, the person should be sent to a medical institute immediately (the information above is provided by the Ministry of Health and Welfare).
Precautionary measures taken by NCTU
NCTU dispatches staff members at the Division of General Affairs under the Office of General Affairs every week to investigate the intrusion of fire ants on campus and keep track of the handling progress. If any intrusion is discovered, the invaded area will be quarantined and signs of warning will be set up around the area. For related divisions: please assist in the tasks of removing fire ants, putting out related announcements on campus, and notifying the students, staff, and faculty of the university through emails.
If anyone is bitten and stung by fire ants on Bo-ai Campus, please contact the security guards at the main gate of Bo-ai Campus for them to take the person in medical need to the nearest hospital for further treatment.
If you discover any nest of fire ants off campus, please call 0800-095-590, the direct line of Red Imported Fire Ant Control Center, to report the discovery. You can also go to the website of the center (http://www.fireant.tw) to report the discovery online to facilitate the handling process.

The world of conversion vans has been growing by leaps and bounds, with newcompaniespoppingupeverymonth. But one trusted name in the camper van business has been around since 2002, providing adventurers with both fully built out vans and the parts to do it themselves. Love campers and trailers? Come join our community group.
Based just outside of Los Angeles, RB Components is marketed as a one-stop shop for trailer, shop, garage, and van accessories. And unlike some van companies out there with subpar websites and service, RB Components delivers. We saw one of their vans at Overland Expo this past spring, and it was well-thought out and superbly constructed.
Take this Mercedes Sprinter 170 EXT 3500. It's a beauty of a van to begin with—four-wheel-drive included—but RB Components transformed the Sprinter into a sweet adventure rig. Open the side sliding door, use the electric folding step, and you arrive into a living room area that has three removable seats depending on how many people you're hauling. A gray and black color scheme keeps things modern, and a sleek kitchen area features a microwave tucked inside upper cabinets, and a galley system with a wooden counter top, sink, and refrigerator.
The middle area of the van features a dinette area with a table in the center and opposing sofas on either side. These sofas boast storage underneath and can also transform into a sleeping area. An additional panel bed above it can sleep two adults, and the van features window and bug shades and a roof fan to keep things cool and comfortable.
Convenient sail cloth and mesh stuff bags keep your gear organized, and an advanced lighting system provides ambiance whether it's night or day. Finally, a custom rear shower and toilet area has handsome teak flooring and is easily walled off from the rest of the van thanks to privacy shades. This innovative design doesn't use permanent walls for the bathroom—something that makes many Class Bs feel downright claustrophobic—and we love the airiness of the shower area when not in use.
Outside, light bar mounts, a custom roof rack, and a shade awning are small touches that can make a big difference, while rooftop solar panels keep you charged on or off the grid.
For this van, RB Components packed a ton of amenities into the largest of the Sprinter models, and it shows; the price of the Mercedes van and the conversion as shown is about $225,000. More basic builds (not including the cost of the vehicle) start around $25,000 depending on what customers want.
But perhaps the best part about RB Components is that they also offer something for the DIYers out there. With a focus on Sprinter vans, RB Components sells everything from base cabinets to bed panel kits that can get you the van lifestyle at a fraction of the cost. Like something you see in this van? It's probably for sale on its own. Even for someone with a custom-built van already completed there are still some small things—like this flashlight holder, or this helmet hook—that could help the functionality of the van. Interested? Check it all out, over here.

Writing Exercise: A Son's Honour (Fiction) | Olee's Literary Canvas
Writing Exercise: A Son's Honour (Fiction)
September 8, 2012 · by Miss B · in Fiction, Short Story, Writing, Writing Exercise. ·
This story is in badly need of revising. See how an incompetent English user writes.
Exercise three: Choose five headlines from a local or internation newspaper and write a story or poem including the headlines and two characters – one an animal and one a person. Write for 15mins/time yourself and read aloud.
The North Korean leader's brother, told to be quiet when he asked about how the country was doing, rankled at every gesture his brother made at the dinner table. The arrogant tone on Jong Un's voice coupled with his rigid posture reminded him every thing he hated about his father. Jong Nam had been living abroad after he had a fall out with the old man, who was not used to disobedience. To save the premiere from the shame of sparing a son from the death sentence, he left the country on self-exile and did so happily. His father was after all, Kim Jong the second, the tyrant.
Jong Nam had planned to come home earlier before news of his father's death arrived. He was driving home with a dog he had just adopted from a rescue shelter. He read that dogs may protect babies from some infections and was thinking that his toddler might benefit from this addition when the sudden ringing of his cell phone knocked him out of his reverie. It was a representative from the North Korean government informing him a recent decapitated body of a man found in a river was his father and that they requested him to attend the funeral. He did not even know that his father was missing. He took a red eye flight the same day and attended the solemn yet lavish ceremony the next day. He shed no tears for the old man, felt not a twinge of grief and he sympatised with the people who did.
As a young child, he was fortunate enough to travel outside the country and experience civilization first hand. He saw the destitution of his countrymen through the eyes of a foreigner and this realization had troubled his conscience ever since. He had wanted to bring about change in the country, to help unshackle North Koreans from the grips of poverty, yet at the age of 15, he had only but dreams. He was powerless to do anything. His brother was slated to be his father's successor and with what he knew of his brother's character, his country will remain the same. The only way he knew how to cope with this reality was to flee.
He now knew it was a selfish and cowardly act. He realized he had chance to make things right when he received that phone call. He had brought the dog along with him. He wanted to exemplify how the people of his adopted country treated their animals and how it was better than how his brother's government was treating their people. Newspapers ran pictures of him with the dog. They talked more about how the animal would make a tasty meal at the dinner table and less about the nature of their relationship. Still he hoped the message he intented got through, behind closed doors. Jong Nam kept the dog at his side during dinner, petting and talking to it as his brother ate in silence. Its companionship slowly assuaged his anger.
He returned to bed that night thinking about his flight tomorrow, and the impending departure from this bleakness surrounding him. Though he was not allowed to speak to the country's media, he hoped his presence and his photos with the dog left a mark on the people. While waiting at the airport the next day a news report on television ran the headline second typhoon hits South Korea, moves toward North Korea. The sorrow that was absent on his father's passing gripped him then. His people would weather the storm the best they could, the way they always had, but the thought of their increased suffering devastated him. The government was ill equipped to aid victims in such catastrophe, let alone care. And there he was about to abandon them again. He never got on the plane that day.
A year later North Korea was yet again in mourning when Jong Un was found missing in his private chambers. A letter sent anonymously by a group claiming to be the North Korean rebels claimed that the leader had been kidnapped and assassinated.
"World Marks day of the missing," said Jong Nam in front of North Korea's military men and women and civilian spectators. Being a member of the Jong family, he was selected to take over the country's leadership, and he had accepted whole-heartedly, stating to the band of government leaders that he was responsible to honour his father's legacy. He had not only assumed his father's position, but his poise and demeanour. The extent of his assumption only went so far. The dog remained at his side as he delivered the speech, a pledge of change to his countrymen.

Thank you, Nikson. You know how headlines are, verbs omitted and all. I had to figure out how to make the sentences work. I think the tenses are all funny in the end. 😀

Golden talks about several playersMike Bakas02/24/2015Read on to see everything Al Golden was saying following Tuesday's practice.
On Trent Harris:
We expect his role to be bigger. Trent is tough to out-work and out-prepare. Coaches love that. We love guys who are accountable. We have to keep working and hopefully we'll get Patchan out here too.
He's probably 255, 258 but runs like a wide receiver. We're fortunate to have him. He'll stick his face in there. He can line up at wide receiver or we can be in-line at tight end. He's doing a good job.
On how much of the offense is in now compared to early spring last year:
Probably a little less but that's because we moved everything up. We'll end up being where we want to be by spring break. We got a bunch in today. We'll finish install these next two days. We're deeper this spring than we were a year ago because we didn't lose that many.
On Mike Wyche being slimmer:
Is he slimmer? It's all relative. Mike has to keep embracing work. If he can do that, he can accomplish anything he wants. We have to keep pushing him out of his comfort zone.
On Antonio Crawford not at practice:
It's just an internal matter right now. Whenever this stuff happens, we don't comment. A lot of kids have different things going on. When we get resolution, we'll let you guys know.
On who the slot corner is now:
Elder and Howard for sure. Deon has done it. Those would be the three.
He's in the best condition of his life. He's coming back to the ball really well. He's acting like older guys should act. He's stopping in after lunch. He wants to watch what we're watching. He has to keep doing that. On Jermaine Grace not being at practice:
We need maturity from him. He wasn't taking care of his stuff academically. Maturity is a big part of it. It was my decision. Grace, McCray. There were three guys I held out because they weren't taking care of business off the field.
On Mike Badgley:
Badgley has a strong leg. We just have to keep working on his rhythm and his execution. He has that self-assurance that you need as a kicker. He's confident.
On former players hanging around lately:
It means a lot. Those guys are very supportive. Lamar, Van Dyke, Sean Spence. When Jonathan Vilma and Sean Spence are talking to our players, that's good. So many of the former guys have been around. It's unique. The guys see the standard. See what Hurricane fans are saying here

Wal Mart Credit Card and Wal Mart Discover Credit Card | FloridaBankruptcyBlog.com Wal Mart Credit Card and Wal Mart Discover Credit Card – FloridaBankruptcyBlog.com
Wal Mart Credit Card and Wal Mart Discover Credit Card
Consumers faced with an array of credit cards to choose from may not automatically opt for Wal-Mart credit cards issued by GE money bank. With the soaring price of gas though, the advantage of carrying a Wal-Mart card is soon clear, as card holders are entitled to a discount of 3 cents per gallon from participating Wal-Mart gas stations.
The retailer offers two cards, a standard Wal-Mart credit card and a Wal-Mart Discover card. Both cards may be used at Wal-Mart stores, Walmart.com, Sam's Club, and Neighborhood Market. Additionally the Discover card can be used anywhere that Discover cards are accepted, making it more useful. The Discover card also offers a cash back scheme that the standard credit card does not, though it compares unfavorably with other available cash back credit cards.
The current APR on both cards is 22.9% for both purchases and balance transfers, with the latter carrying a fee of $5 or 3%, whichever is greater. The same fee structure is applied to cash advances which carry an ARP of 25.9%. Foreign transactions are charged at 3%.
One particular feature of Wal-Mart credit cards is that card holders may obtain cash advances in store when they pay with their credit card. However the cost of doing so should be considered, as the interest will be charged immediately from the point of cash back. Obtaining cash back via debit cards is a preferable option which carries no fee and no interest.
Rewards points earned with the Wal-Mart Discover card increase the more the consumer spends but the rewards are meagre. Customers only receive .25% cash back on the first $1,500 spent on purchases, which then increases to .50% on purchases between $1,500 and $3,000.
Card holders need to spend more than $3000 before they can earn the highest cash back of 1%, but spending beneath that level still only attracts the lower rates even when spending accrues to $3,000. Thus the maximum cash back for spending up to $3000 is only $11.25. Rewards are redeemed with $10 checks.
Of the two Wal-Mart cards the Discover is the better choice as it can be used more widely and does offer a cash back program. The definite attraction of the cards is the gas discount, providing the price of Wal-Mart gas is competitive. There is another reason why the cards may appeal. Applicants that open an account and spend $100 by credit card the same day are entitled to $20 back.

Businesses Worry About Biden's Silence on Work-Visa Ban - WSJ
President has moved to undo many of Trump's immigration policies, but curb on program prized by employers remains in effect
Updated Feb. 10, 2021 11:14 am ET
WASHINGTON—Business groups and immigrant advocates say they are worried that a ban imposed last year on most forms of legal immigration in response to the Covid-19 pandemic could stick even as President Biden undoes many of his predecessor's other immigration policies.
The ban, which former President Donald Trumpput in place in April and expanded in June, was intended to block the entry of foreigners who might take open jobs while U.S. unemployment was soaring. It covers workers in a range of industries—from tech and consulting to landscaping and seasonal resorts—along with most family members of U.S. citizens looking to immigrate.

Saints Blank Bulldogs 2-0 - Yale
Saints Blank Bulldogs 2-0
Snikeris Makes 33 Saves
CANTON, N.Y. - St. Lawrence's penalty killing unit entered the day ranked just 20th in the NCAA, but that unit came up big against Yale at Appleton Arena Saturday afternoon. The Saints were a perfect eight-for-eight on the kill, overshadowing an eight-for-eight performance by Yale's PK unit in the whistle-filled affair, and as a result St. Lawrence came away with a 2-0 shutout win.
The first period was a series of missed opportunities for the Bulldogs, as they went 0-for-4 on the power play and managed only two shots on goal. The Saints nearly got a gift eight seconds into the game when a pass in front deflected off the skate of forward Karell Emard and wound up on net, but senior goalie Jackee Snikeris reacted quickly to make the save. A day after making 37 stops against Clarkson, Snikeris tacked on 33 more against the Saints.
St. Lawrence (12-11-2, 7-6-0 ECAC Hockey) did not get one past Snikeris until less than two minutes remained in the period, when defenseman Jamie Goldsmith gave the Saints a 1-0 lead.
The second period brought three more Yale power plays, but once again the Bulldogs could not score and St. Lawrence held a convincing 13-5 shot advantage. That included one on a Yale power play 30 seconds into the period, shortly after a faceoff, when Saints forward Kirsten Roach got off a short-handed shot that Snikeris cradled. Snikeris also made a series of saves during a Saints power play four minutes into the period that frustrated the home crowd as they started prematurely celebrating a goal only to realize the puck had been deflected just wide of the net.
Snikeris had to deny another St. Lawrence short-handed chance with 5:30 left in the period, after a pair of Saints chased down a loose puck in the Yale zone. One of them took out the only Yale skater who was in range, but Snikeris wound up making a kick save on Roach to deny the scoring chance.
Two minutes later Snikeris came up with another great save. First, she poked away a pass intended for Bero low in the slot. But the Saints got the puck right back to Bero for a quick shot in traffic, and Snikeris was able to cover it up to keep the Bulldogs within one.
Yale (5-12-2, 4-7-1 ECAC Hockey) had one last chance to even the score at the start of the third period, but the Bulldogs' eighth power play of the game came and went without a shot on goal. Shortly after that power play ended, a goal by forward Kelly Sabatine gave St. Lawrence an extra cushion at 2-0.
The final four penalties of the game wound up being called on Yale, further limiting the Bulldogs' chances to get back in the game.
Saints goalie Maxie Weisz made the biggest of her 11 saves with eight minutes left in the game when she denied senior forward Bray Ketchum right at the doorstep after a perfect pass from junior forward Aleca Hughes.

UK failing to tackle premature deaths – The Insiders' Guide to Expatriate Health
Bryony Ashcroft 2 April 2013 17 September 2016 No Comments on UK failing to tackle premature deaths
People may be living longer, but they do so in poor health.
Young people in the UK are more likely to die prematurely of alcohol and drug related illnesses than those in other developed nations. While life expectancy in Britain has increased and people are living longer, they are doing so with a poor quality of life.
The current generation will suffer more years of disabilities in old age than previous generations. Those aged between 20 and 54 in the UK are also more likely to have spend longer with mental or physical illnesses than adults in other countries, including the USA, Canada and Australia.
The report, published in the Lancet, shows, despite universal health care, increasing health spending, better cancer screening and immunization programmes, the UK is falling behind in reducing early deaths and disease.
The research combined data from 14 EU countries, as well as Australia, Canada and the USA, since 1990. The fact the UK has failed to significantly slow down the premature death rate was described as "startling" by the report authors.
Chris Murray, who led the work at the University of Washington, explained Britain's poor performance was due to dramatic increases in Alzheimer's disease and drug and alcohol abuse. There was also a failure to tackle leading killers such as heart disease, strokes and lung diseases, reports Reuters.
Overall, Britain's leading causes of death have changed little in 20 years. The top five remain heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, stroke, lung cancer and lower respiratory infections. Deaths from cirrhosis of the liver, caused by alcohol misuse and/or obesity, rose 65 percent between 1990 and 2010.
On a more positive note, the UK had on average, fewer premature deaths from road accidents, diabetes, liver cancer and chronic kidney disease than other countries.
Commenting on the findings to Reuters, Edmund Jessop from the UK Faculty of Public Health in London said there was "plenty of room for bold action by politicians".
"Alternatively, the U.K. can continue to languish at the bottom of European league tables," he finished.

Heavy Vinyl 2LP Import. ... more details
Pop Used - LP 56538 EMI
Almost Impossible To Find 1997 UK 2LP, Custom Embossed Inner Sleeves, Both LPs Look New, Unplayed. 4½ Stars In All Music Guide. "The Great Escape, For All Of Its Many Virtues, Painted Blur Into A Corner And There Was Only One Way Out — To Abandon The Britpop That They Had Instigated By Bringing The Weird Strands That Always Floated Through Their Music To The Surface. Blur May Superficially Appear To Be A Break From Tradition, But It Is A Logical Progression, Highlighting The Band's Rich Eclecticism And Sense Of Songcraft. Certainly, They Are Trying For New Sonic Territory, Bringing In Shards Of White Noise, Gurgling Electronics, Raw Guitars, And Druggy Psychedelia, But These Are Just Extensions Of Previously Hidden Elements Of Blur's Music. What Makes It Exceptional Is How Hard The Band Tries To Reinvent Itself Within Its Own Framework, And The Level Of Which It Succeeds. "Beetlebum" Runs Through The White Album In The Space Of Five Minutes; "M.O.R." Reinterprets Berlin-Era Bowie; "You're So Great," Despite The Corny Title, Is Affecting Lo-Fi From Graham Coxon; "Country Sad Ballad Man" Is Bizarrely Affecting, Strangled Lo-Fi Psychedelia; Blur Might Be Self-Consciously Eclectic, But Blur Are At Their Best When They Are Trying To Live Up To Their Own Pretensions, Because Of Damon Albarn's Exceptional Sense Of Songcraft And The Band's Knack For Detailed Arrangements That Flesh Out The Songs To Their Fullest. There Might Be Dark Overtones To The Record, But The Band Sounds Positively Joyous, Not Only In Making Noise But Wreaking Havoc With The Expectations Of Its Audience And Critics."

Where Blur's Breakthrough Album Was A Celebration Of The Working Class, Drawing On British Pop From The '60s And Reaching Through The '80s, The Great Escape Concentrates On The Suburbs, Featuring A Cast Of Characters All Trying To Cope With The Numbing Pressures Of Modern Life. Consequently, It's Darker Than Parklife, Even If The Melancholia Is Hidden Underneath The Crisp Production And Catchy Melodies. Even The Bright, Infectious Numbers On The Great Escape Have Gloomy Subtexts, Whether It's The Disillusioned Millionaire Of "Country House" And The Sycophant Of "Charmless Man" Or The Bleak Loneliness Of "Globe Alone" And "Entertain Me." Naturally, The Slower Numbers Are Even More Despairing, With The Acoustic "Best Days," The Lush, Sweeping Strings Of "The Universal," And The Stark, Moving Electronic Ballad "Yuko & Hiro" Ranking As The Most Affecting Work Blur Has Ever Recorded. However, None Of This Makes The Great Escape A Burden Or A Difficult Album. The Music Bristles With Invention Throughout, As Blur Delves Deeper Into Experimentation With Synthesizers, Horns, And Strings; Guitarist Graham Coxon Twists Out Unusual Chords And Lead Lines, And Damon Albarn Spits Out Unexpected Lyrical Couplets Filled With Wit And Venomous Intelligence In Each Song. But Blur's Most Remarkable Accomplishment Is That It Can Reference The Past -- The Scott Walker Homage Of "The Universal," The Terry Hall/Fun Boy Three Cop On "Top Man," The Skittish, XTC-Flavored Pop Of "It Could Be You," And Albarn's Devotion To Ray Davies -- While Still Moving Forward, Creating A Vibrant, Invigorating Record."

Chilton Primary School - Sports Staff Team
Emma Knight has worked at Chilton for a number of years as our Sports Coach. In that time, she has taught skills for children from Year R to 6 in multisports, athletics, games, gymnastics, dance and even swimming, gaining the trust of the children and offering support for staff.
In 2020, Emma was able to secure a Gold Standard award for Kitemark for the third consecutive year. Over the past several years, she worked hard to ensure she met a target of over 50% of the school partaking in an after school club. She has listened to children to provide a range of clubs that they like and she has made sure the resources are easily accessible for all.
Emma is now assisted by Josh Lowther and Carson Arthur. Together, they have developed Active Play at lunchtimes, whereby all the children are encouraged to be active and take part in different activities. This is entirely run by the children. Now, the children are responsible for their own equipment and activities and we have found that this has had a huge impact on improving behaviour, not just the children's enjoyment. As well as this, the children are able to learn social skills such as sharing and team work.
Our dedicated Coaches, with Mr Wheeler (as School Sports leader) give up a lot of their own time to attend competitions – including at weekends - and they have shown great passion when coaching teams. As we have developed our staff sports team over the last few years, we have had a greater success rate in competitions as well as more children representing the school. We even were able to represent Thanet in the Kent Games for Speed Stacking, Handball and, most recently, American Football.
We always want to improve and we consistently work on ideas that help the children to prepare and learn independently. Emma has created a Sports Committee Crew, Competition Leaders and Active Play Leaders, all from children within the school. Furthermore, she has developed a means of assessment that the school uses to evidence the participants of clubs and competitions. In this way, she can also target those who are less active and speak to them about what clubs they may enjoy.
Of course the team are also assisted by school leaders to ensure that all of their work is successful. As part of this, Mrs Law conducts pupil questionnaires and conferences and playtimes are the most popular subject for discussion! The children voiced ideas on how their playtimes could be better and changes were made in response to this. The equipment is now available for longer, without interruption, the signal for the end of lunchtime has been changed and a quiet play area has also been established and resourced.

The Ecuadorian-Spanish Nathaly Salazar died on January 2 while touring in Peru. From that day her family was looking for her and this weekend her death was confirmed, revealed by two tour guides who confessed having thrown her corpse in a river, in fear of knowing her death.
The death occurred while the girl was traveling on a zip line (canopi) in the community of Cacllaracay, in the Cuzco region, which offered a panoramic view of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. According to the testimony of the detainees, the owner of the tourist transport company and his employee, she suffered a blow to the head that caused her death. Her body was thrown into the Vilcanota-Urubamba River, in the sector known as Paucarbamba.
Her family started their search from Spain on January 2, one day after their last telephone contact. The Peruvian Police launched an alert in the area with the data of the woman, who since September began a tour of her home country (she arrived in Europe at age 12) and then went to Peru. She had planned to travel to Bolivia, Chile and Argentina.
"According to the police information, on January 2 the young woman arrived at the archaeological site of Moray and from there she went to Maras, to then continue on foot to the rural community of Cacllaracay, where the observation service was offered to tourists", reported this Sunday ABC.
"Salazar's parents arrived in Peru last Tuesday, with the intention of joining the search in Cuzco and, according to her mother, Alejandra Ayala, last December 31 was the last time she had communication with her, who assured her that she was 'fine and happy' ", according to El País. (I)

Nicholas K's Spring 2012 Collection At New York Fashion Week - Haute Living
Nicholas K's Spring 2012 Collection At New York Fashion Week
One thing is for certain: Nicholas K loves layers. But instead of looking heavy or drab, designer Nicholas Kunz managed to pull off a surprisingly light airy feel with pieces that moved and breathed that looked effortlessly cool.
For his Spring 2012 collection, which included both men's and women's fashions, tonal whites and rich tans made a strong start. Gradually the show went darker moving from sand colored clothing, onto safari greens and blue greys and eventually closing with black.
From loose draped jersey hooded tops to tiered bias-cut dresses, it was a unique earthy meets urban vibe. The gals rocked sporty over cropped mesh leggings underneath lightweight iterations of the trenchcoats and anoraks. The men were also draped in layers, but in a stronger more intentional way.

SGN - Seattle Gay News - Page 5 - RI governor signs civil unions bill, some unhappy - Friday, July 8, 2011 - Volume 39 Issue 27
LGBT rights organizations had urged him to veto the bill, because it contained language allowing religious organizations - including service providers like hospitals - to refuse to recognize legal same-sex civil unions.
Also unhappy were that state's Roman Catholic bishop and his allies in NOM (the National Organization for Marriage), who had pulled out all the stops in a failed effort to defeat the bill.
While Chafee acknowledged 'reservations' because of the 'unparalleled and alarming scope' of the so-called 'religious exemptions' the bill contains, he nevertheless called it 'a step forward.'
'[The bill] brings tangible rights and benefits to thousands of Rhode Islanders. It also provides a foundation from which we will continue to fight for full marriage equality,' he said at the signing.
The new law includes a section that says no religious organization - including hospitals, cemeteries, schools, and community centers - or its employees may be required to recognize a same-sex civil union.
As a result, LGBT activists said, a partner in a civil union could be denied the right to make medical decisions for his or her partner, access to health insurance benefits, property rights in adjoining burial plots, or family memberships at some community centers.
Consequently, a number of LGBT organizations, including Marriage Equality Rhode Island, Freedom to Marry, and HRC, urged Chafee to veto it.
Taking no action at all, they said, is better than enacting legislation that enshrines second-class status for same-sex couples.
Lesbian Rhode Island Senator Donna Nesselbush said she voted against the civil union bill because it failed to deliver equal rights for same-sex couples.
'From a conscience point of view, I couldn't press the green button and vote for that,' she said. 'We can't confuse rights with equality.'
Even Gov. Chafee admitted, 'This extraordinary exemption eviscerates the important rights that enacting a civil union law was meant to guarantee for same sex couples in the first place.'
Meanwhile, Thomas Tobin, Roman Catholic Bishop of Providence and an outspoken opponent of same-sex civil unions, forbade Catholics to have anything to do with them.
'Because civil unions promote an unacceptable lifestyle, undermine the faith of the Church on holy matrimony, and cause scandal and confusion, Catholics may not participate in civil unions,' he warned.
'To do so is a very grave violation of the moral law and, thus, seriously sinful. A civil union can never be accepted as a legitimate alternative to matrimony.'
NOM said the bill does not go far enough in protecting the religious values of businesses and individuals.
Maine legalized same-sex marriage in May 2009, but the law was overturned in a referendum the following November. Maine does allow same-sex domestic partnerships.

Yesterday, Grits attended a Texas Public Policy Foundation sponsored panel at the capitol on the topic of civil asset forfeiture reform. It was moderated by Derek Cohen of the Right on Crime initiative (who authored a paper on forfeiture for TPPF earlier this year) with Andrew Kloster of the conservative Heritage Foundation, Matt Miller from the libertarian Institute of Justice, Shannon Edmonds from the state prosecutor's association, and state Rep. David Simpson, an East Texas Republican.
To a large extent, Simpson and conservative reformers were in agreement. Civil asset forfeiture is abused, mostly targeting small amounts of money and personal property instead of going after "kingpins" as was promised when the laws were passed. Most of the recommendations offered will be familiar to long-time Grits readers such as requiring a criminal conviction before a civil seizure (a reform undertaken recently in Minnesota); putting seized monies in state or county general funds instead of law-enforcement budgets; shifting the burden of proof to the state before property may be seized; adopting a minimum threshold for seizures to avoid the petty mulcting witnessed in Tenaha ($25,000 or $50,000 were mentioned as possibilities); and more detailed reporting about assets seized and how the money is spent. Rep. Simpson made a particularly strong case for limiting civil seizures to cases with convicted defendants.
Kloster highly recommended three resources worth passing on to Grits readers:
A 2013 article from the New Yorker titled, "Taken."
A multi-part series from the Washington Post titled, "Stop and Seize."
An hilarious segment on asset forfeiture from John Oliver's HBO show, Last Week Tonight.
While somewhat surprising that a Heritage man would recommend such "liberal media" sources, it shows how this topic has become a bipartisan concern that defies ideological labels. There's a left-right coalition to be had on the topic - certainly in Texas and, according to Kloster, also in Congress, which he suggested will see legislation proposed on this topic by Republicans in both chambers next year.
Miller described watching asset forfeiture proceedings in Harris County. On one side of the courtroom, prosecutors had a small law office, he said, with stacks of boxes full of case files with styles such as State of Texas vs. $832, or State of Texas vs. 1989 Chevy Impala. Almost all the cases, he said, were for very small amounts. (He mentioned a study out of Minnesota which found the average forfeiture amount there is about $1,200.) No one was at the defense table, he said, for obvious reasons: Who would pay a lawyer $3,000 to dispute an $832 seizure?
Miller agreed with an audience member during the Q&A that a possible solution may be to allow recovery of attorney fees if assets are recovered from the state, but Kloster demurred to his group's tort-reform stance and said Heritage wouldn't go that far.
Shannon Edmonds from the Texas District and County Attorneys Association had been asked to the event as a last-minute replacement and did his best to counter his fellow panelists. He portrayed conservative motivations for forfeiture reform as stemming from a general desire to reduce government budgets and de-fund law enforcement, citing Grover Norqust's famous line that he wanted government small enough to drown in a bathtub. I found that point a bit disingenuous. It's certainly not parsimony that motivates folks like Mr. Miller, for example, who before asset forfeiture was active fighting for eminent-domain reform. Shannon's critique failed to acknowledge the personal freedom/property rights motivations of movement conservatives on this topic.
Edmonds suggested that elections provided sufficient oversight. The DA who famously bought a margarita machine with forfeiture funds lost his next election, he pointed out, also citing Dallas DA Craig Watkins misspending of asset-forfeiture funds as a contributor to his recent ouster. Of Miller's description of Harris County forfeiture proceedings, he declared, "That's a lot of due process for $832."
Texas' asset forfeiture laws were passed in 1989 at the height of Texas' worst-ever crime wave, Edmonds reminded the crowd, and has been amended every session since then. Most changes were to broaden the statute's scope to allow for more, easier seizures, he said. But state Sen. John Whitmire had also passed reforms in response to the Tenaha mess and other scandals that placed new restrictions on officers' ability to coerce drivers to sign roadside waivers, modestly strengthening due process before forfeiture proceedings may go forward.
Finally, perhaps thanks to truncated preparation time, Edmonds reverted to an argument he frequently uses in other contexts - particularly whenever anyone suggests scaling back "over-criminalization" - (mis)quoting G.K. Chesterton to say, “Don’t ever take a fence down until you know the reason why it was put up.” In this case, though, that's hardly a compelling sentiment. We know why the law was enacted: To seize money from drug "kingpins." And clearly cases like State vs. $832 aren't targeting kingpins. The law was supposed to de-fund drug smuggling organizations which instead have flourished unabated throughout the last quarter century and possess so much liquidity that their cash may have saved the economy during the 2008 global banking crisis.
In sum: The law was created to target kingpins but in practice is used on small-timers. It was supposed to de-fund cartels but instead at most has amounted to a minor, inconsistently applied tax on them. It was supposed to provide extras for law enforcement but increasingly many departments rely on forfeiture to make their budgets. We know why the fence was built. Which brings us back to Shannon's quote attributed to Chesterton, which is actually a quote from John F. Kennedy paraphrasing him. Here's the actual Chesterton quote (from his 1929 book, The Thing) on which Kennedy's comment was based:
In the matter of reforming things, as distinct from deforming them, there is one plain and simple principle; a principle which will probably be called a paradox. There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road. The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, “I don’t see the use of this; let us clear it away.” To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: “If you don’t see the use of it, I certainly won’t let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it.
In that light, today's reformers find themselves in an excellent position to advocate destruction of the civil-forfeiture fence. (By "destruction" I mean requiring a criminal conviction before seizure.) The reasons for its creation are both well known and profoundly flawed. It has failed at all its stated goals except revenue generation, which was supposed to be a happy side effect, not a primary motivator. Moreover, forfeiture has generated a litany of unintended consequences from skewing law enforcement priorities to eroding public faith in the rule of law.
Good fences make good neighbors but crappy fences are a blight. It's past time to tear this one down.

I don't know that I would call it the "conservative" case, Grits. More appropriately, the "libertarian" case perhaps. I do think it's interesting that crime rates have gone down since the legislature's enactment of the Texas Civil Forfeiture law. Don't you think it's possible that stripping crime of its profit potential at all levels has contributed in some respect to this reduction? I'm continually amazed at how a few anecdotal examples of civil forfeiture abuses are routinely trotted out (margarita machines, Teneha, etc.) in support of arguments favoring "reform." What might be interesting is a study showing how most law enforcement agencies in Texas are actually using forfeited funds (my guess is that the overwhelming majority of expenditures are clearly justified) and how much taxpayers have SAVED due to forfeiture funds being used. Aren't all law enforcement agencies that use forfeiture funds required to report how the funds are spent to the Attorney General? If there was any systematic misuse, I'm guessing either you or other members of the media would be able to easily show it instead of relying on the same old worn out examples.

@1:44, only a fool (or someone disingenuously trolling anonymously who would never make such silly statements under their own name) would attribute crime declines to "the Texas Civil Forfeiture law" when crime has declined much more in states that use forfeiture less and also in other western nations that don't use it in that way at all.
So no, I don't think it's possible the forfeiture law is responsible for the crime decline. We've witnessed a natural, real-world experiment showing that's not true.
Also, if you've seen few anecdotes of civil forfeiture abuses besides the margarita DA and Tenaha, then you're not paying attention.

Of course there are tremendous abuses taking place. Grandmothers who have no idea what their delinquent grandchildren are doing are losing their homes because a grandchild was living under her roof and is involved in illegal drug activity. As for law enforcement, small towns buying military tanks?! That's what they use the funds for so are you kidding me? And don't get me started about the Texas attorney general--that office is too pre-occupied in grandstanding over political lawsuits against a President they disdain then paying attention to how local law enforcement squanders funds from seizures--where is their righteous indignation when someone who has done nothing they can be prosecuted for loses their home or car and as a result their ability to earn a livlihood? Wake up and smell the coffee for Pete's sake.

John Oliver is my man! He's great at bringing attention to issues that the media at large is ignoring (like the elections in India). And I didn't know that drug dealers save the banks. I guess I owe them a Christmas card?
But I think it's just common sense that civil asset forfeiture needs to be reformed. The law, as it's written, allows for abuse; all we need is evidence that abuse is happening to have reason to change it. I don't see it as a conservative or liberal issue in that sense. But the framing from a liberal point of view would probably be that minorities and the poor feel the brunt of forfeitures the most, and from a conservative point of view, it would be that it allows the government to arbitrarily seize private property.
@Grits: In my opinion, the most interesting hypothesis for the first-world crime decline is that it's related to the reduction of lead in the environment.

lol guess it was me. took 3 diff spyware/malware programs to stop it.
as for the so-called "civil asset forfeiture"
Sorry but if it is not preceded by a criminal conviction that included charges showing the amount of funds or the property.
YOU are now a bigger criminal the the individual you just conducted armed robbery on. Guess what he/she now has every legal and moral right to destroy you and reclaim their property just like any individual robbed on the street.
even if they have to hurt to kill you.

Roger Toussaint sounds off before retirement | New York Amsterdam News: The new Black view
STEPHON JOHNSON Amsterdam News Staff | 4/26/2012, 12:26 p.m.
After decades on the job and serving his union, the former president of Transport Workers Union (TWU) Local 100 is officially retiring.
Last week, Roger Toussaint announced that he had filed his retirement papers with the Metropolitan Transit Authority. Toussaint, who turned 55 last November, now has the age and time in to retire from the MTA. His last day on the job will be May 1.
As Toussaint looks back at his career as both a union worker and labor union leader, there is a high degree of satisfaction.
"I was elected to the presidency three times," he said in a recent interview with the AmNews. "The most important accomplishment was the 2005 strike that prevented the imposition of a Tier 6 pension plan on transit workers. Now that pension plan has been implemented seven years later. It seems to me that means something. That's not small potatoes."
Toussaint faced great pressure back in 2005, when his union workers went on strike. It was the first major strike by public employees in decades, and Mayor Michael Bloomberg and much of the white-owned media mobilized against the transit workers. Many felt at the time the anti-union sentiment was grounded in the fact that the majority of the transit workers were Black and Brown people.
As Toussaint looks at the current political and labor landscape, he told the AmNews he is disappointed by how TWU's leaders have handled the current labor situations. He felt that the union lost a golden opportunity by not aligning its better with the Occupy Wall Street movement and other significant labor and social movements out of state.
"Despite the battle cry of Wisconsin and the Occupy Wall Street movement, which provided an opportunity for a second wind in the labor movement to deal with their weaknesses, I don't think it was done successfully at all," said Toussaint. "The state of things in New York is an indication considering that New York is a union town. When you think of union towns, New York would be among a handful, including Detroit. And if you look at what's going on in New York in respect to what [New York Gov. Andrew] Cuomo and [New York City Mayor Michael] Bloomberg have been able to get away with of late, it says something about the state of affairs. What it says is not a good thing."
The view that Toussaint paints of the labor movement in New York City, and in particular TWU Local 100, is the result of the leadership of union President John Samuelsen. Toussaint blames Samuelsen for hurting his constituents when they needed him to help them.
"As far as Local 100 goes, I have been paying a great deal of attention to them giving the impression of being member-oriented," Toussaint said. "Lots of attention on social media and manipulating the image of the union, but very little in the way of substance, and that price is being paid by way of these negotiations [for a new labor contract]." Toussaint accused Samuelsen of hinging a new labor deal on his relationship with MTA executive Joe Lhota.
"I don't think he's gonna last past the year," Toussaint said when asked about Samuelsen's job. "The contract fight is in deep trouble, and he has put them in an almost intractable position. There have been more setbacks just in his first year in administrating than I can recall in my 27 years on the job."
Toussaint said he endorses Car Equipment Division Chair Joseph Campbell for TWU Local 100 president, but the former president had one more piece of advice for his former constituents.
"They have one opportunity to reclaim Local 100 and salvage the gains that have been made in the past decade," Toussaint said. "And the way to do that is to clean house in Local 100 in the upcoming election. They need to defend their own legacy. It's being trampled upon by Samuelsen's administration."

All you need to know about net neutrality | world news | Hindustan Times
The FCC adopted a proposal by Republican appointed chairman Ajit Pai to scrap the 2015 rules and replace them with his "Restore Internet Freedom" plan. Critics contend the plan could kill the open internet as we know it.
world Updated: Dec 15, 2017 10:44 IST
Demonstrators rally outside the Federal Communication Commission building to protest against the end of net neutrality rules December 14, 2017 in Washington, DC. (AFP)
US regulators voted Thursday on a plan overhauling rules for internet services providers. The action by the Federal Communications Commission is likely to end so-called "net neutrality." Here are some questions and answers:
The concept dates back to the early days of the web, and requires internet service providers to treat all data equally -- prohibiting the blocking of sites or services for competitive reasons, and banning "fast" and "slow" lanes for different kinds of online traffic.
Activists say Pai is doing more than just rolling back the clock, pointing out that net neutrality has been largely enforced under both Republican and Democratic administrations, citing the "four internet freedoms" outlined in 2005 by then-chairman Michael Powell.
"What this fight is really about is whether the next generation of tech companies will have the space to innovate and spread new ideas," Ferras Vinh of the Center for Democracy & Technology, a digital rights group.
"The hope is it incentivizes companies to explore new technologies and develop new ways to compete in a high fixed-cost industry," Brake said.

Edison married Mary Stilwell at her 16th twelvemonth on 25th December, 1871. She was an employee in one of Edison 's stores. They had three kids: Marion Estelle Edison, Thomas Alva Edison and William Leslie Edison. Later, Mary Edison died on 9th August, 1884, after enduring from a encephalon tumour. Edison subsequently married Mina Miller in the twelvemonth 1886 with whom they besides had three kids: Madeleine Edison, Charles Edison and Theodore Edison.
In popular civilization, Thomas Edison has appeared as a chief character in novels, movies, cartoon strips and picture games. His innovation standards helped him to be made an icon.

His history and brush with Nikola Tesla has besides been of involvement and has hence provided dramatic tenseness in the universe. Furthermore, it has been a subject returned to legion and infinite times.
In Business, Edison was really active until the terminal. Infarct, electric trains were implemented by the Lackawanna Railroad in New New Jersey merely some months before his decease. An overhead catenary system was used to convey electricity and power being guided by Edison himself. He gave many people a surprise by being at the accelerator of the first train from the terminus of Lackawanna all the manner to Dover.
His bequest remained as his autos remained on transporting people until their retirement in the twelvemonth 1984 when the autos were purchased. There is a particular plaque to mark Edison 's accomplishments at the railroad terminus in Lackawanna to offer him tribute.

Besides two colleges in the community are named for him: Edison State College and Edison Community College. There are besides a figure of high schools, museums and even companies named after him.
2.0 Major Events and Accomplishments of Thomas Edison
The innovation of the record player gained him foremost notice since 1877, something that was least expected by the big public community. It appeared to be about charming to the populace. His really first record player was recorded on a grooved cylinder known as a tin foil. It nevertheless had a hapless quality of sound and its recordings could non be played as many times as possible. Later on, a more intentional theoretical account was produced utilizing composition board cylinders coated with wax.
Thomas Alva Edison was an discoverer, scientist and man of affairs in American. His many devices that he developed hold extremely influenced many lives around the universe. These devises include: The record player, the camera for gesture image and an electric visible radiation bulb that is really long lasting. He is frequently honored for being among the first discoverers who participated in the constitution of the research lab for industrial research. This is because he was among the first discoverers the mass production rules.
In history, Edison is regarded as one of the most fecund discoverers for he holds a figure of patents in his name, in France, Germany and in the United Kingdom. He contributed a batch in the telecommunications industry every bit good as mass media and communicating. This is good demonstrated in his innovations such as: Vote recording equipment that is mechanical, stock heart, an electric auto battery, electrical power, music that is recorded and gesture images. His innovations were majorly facilitated by his earlier calling in telegraph operation.
Edison 's innovations of electric power have created an impact in places, concerns and mills. This has effected industrialisation and modernisation in the whole universe at big. His first elected station for power was stationed in Manhattan Island- New York.
3.0 His Historical Impact
As a Telegrapher, Edison has created great impact in history. Telegraphic money transportations have helped many people in the universe. It has dominated the telecommunication industry to day of the month particularly in the 3rd universe states.
He became an operator of telegraph after he saved Jimmie MacKenzie from being hit by a running train. Jimmie 's male parent who was a station agent of Mount Clemens- Michigan, trained Edison as a telegraph operator as a mark of gratitude for his generousness. Most of Edison 's earliest innovations are related to cable. For case the stock heart and the electric ballot recording equipment.
As a research worker, Edison 's invention of a research research lab is historical in the sense that even today all acquisition establishments require research labs for research. There 's specific processs followed to acquire needed consequences as was done in the Menlo Park research lab. Menlo Park was the first establishment which was established with an purpose of proficient betterment and invention.
All research conducted was carried out under specific waies and processs in order to bring forth the needed consequences. This applies even in the research labs of these yearss in current acquisition establishments. As a consequence, Edison 's Menlo Park industrial research lab was the first one to be created with an purpose of cognition creative activity and application control.
Edison 's Carbon telephone sender that developed the carbonated telephone mike that has been used in all telephones is besides rather historical. The bell receiving system for illustration has been in all phones for long event up to day of the month. The mike is besides used in wirelesss, public reference systems and other electronic appliances.
Electric light innovation is besides historical in the sense that Edison made important parts and betterments towards the issue of candent visible radiation particularly after contriving the light bulb. The bulb is the 1 we use even to day of the month in places, concerns, offices merely but to call a few. These bulb innovations have promoted energy preservation and decreased cost of electricity. The supply of direct current has been made easy with his innovations. Edison besides patented electricity distribution system therefore capitalising on the electric lamp innovation.
Edison every bit good maximized net incomes through increased production and his patent/production rights. He campaigned for the prohibition of the usage of jumping current ( AC ) in favour of direct current ( DC ) for safety grounds in footings of electromotive force. He wanted to demo that jumping current is more unsafe than direct current. AC has presently replaced DC in most cases of power coevals and distribution, therefore tremendously bettering the efficiency of power coevals and distribution. DC has finally lost favour in footings of distribution and it exists today majorly in long-distance DC with high electromotive force transmittal systems. DC with low electromotive force continued to be distributed and used in high-density countries for many old ages. It has nevertheless been replaced by AC with low-voltage. DC on the other manus had the advantage of big battery Bankss which maintains continued power supply.
His innovation of the Fluoroscopy besides is portion of history in the sense that his skiagraphy has been really utile in our day-to-day lives for illustration the X raies are extremely used in all infirmaries today.
On work dealingss, Edison was a really competent mathematician. He nevertheless failed to carry through employee promises of wage additions for case that of Nikola Tesla. He seems to hold trusted himself wholly and ne'er to the full trusted his employees.
Sing Media innovations, Edison 's chief success and luck was telegraphy as a consequence of the cognition that he gained while working as an operator of telegraph. Here, he leaned and got exposed to electricity rudimentss. This made it easier for him to do his stock heart which became the first broadcast system that is based on electricity. He subsequently made a Kinetoscope which is a hole- cheep spectator system which was bought even by Bush. They were selling at a really high rate particularly to investors such as: France and its settlements, Monaco and Belgian industrialists. The devise was subsequently installed and people could watch short movies.
He subsequently received patent rights for gesture images in public screening in the metropolis. " The birth of a state " was Edison 's most favourite film. He subsequently started the gesture image patents company in the twelvemonth 1908 which comprised nine studios for movie which made him to be honored with the award of Acoustical society of America.
On the issue of political relations, faith and metaphysics, Edison was a deist and believed that the spiritual Gods do non be but nature creates people. This made him to be regarded as an atheist. He extremely supported non-violence and moral erectness.
4.0 Personal sentiment about Thomas Edison
Edison has been a large inspiration in my life for he brought civilisation into this universe. All his innovations are valid to day of the month. Taking into consideration that he did non achieve really high degrees of instruction, he is a adult male to be remembered. As a research worker and discoverer, he demonstrated that adult male can lift into any highs neither with nor without much instruction. He rose from selling newspapers and veggies into a really outstanding man of affairs. This proves that entrepreneurial accomplishments can emerge from nil to large things. His deathless bosom particularly when confronting challenges greatly inspire me to contend more and unrecorded long and achieve higher accomplishments. His name really commands a batch of regard and award.
5.0 Lesson to schoolmates
As Thomas Edison, we should be all unit of ammunition, prognosis and inspired to accomplish our ends in malice of any challenges that we may be confronting in life. We should ne'er free hope nevertheless how tough the undertaking seems to be. As Edison, we need to be courageous and brave until we attain our set ends.
Edison was an advocator of non-violence. So as pupils we need to take attention of each other and avoid harming others to advance good ethical motives amongst us.

Bin Roye is losing its grip on reality. Should it even have a place on TV? - Film & TV - Images
Bin Roye is losing its grip on reality. Should it even have a place on TV?
Updated 01 Dec, 2016 10:39am
I cannot condone dramas telling girls that it's okay for them to obsess over men because at the end, 'it'll work out'
One thing's for sure: Bin Roye should have been either a movie or a drama, definitely not both!
Can someone please explain TV drama Bin Roye's timeline to me? How is it that in eight episodes only a couple years passed, but in one episode (the latest episode, episode nine), two whole years went by?
We better start with a recap.
Humayun Saeed's character Irtiza's parents passed away when he was very young and he grew up with his dadi, chacha (Javed Sheikh) and chachi (Zeba Bakhtiyar).
Their daughters are Saba (Mahira Khan) and Saman (Armeena Khan). Saman was given to her mamo as her mumani could not have any kids. Saba is the youngest and is very possessive of Irtiza and thinks only she has rights over him; something Irtiza never openly denounces.
Irtiza goes to the US to do his MBA where he and Saman get quite close. After he's back, the family learns that Saman's adoptive parents passed away in a plane crash so Irtiza flies to the US and brings her back.
Saba sees Irtiza's interest in Saman and is clearly jealous except for some reason the entire family is oblivious of her feelings and attitude. She eventually accepts the fact that this Saman and Irtiza are happening; she's quite the trooper during their entire wedding, doing her best to be a good sister.
Irtiza and Saman get married and move back to California and after a few weeks, Saman announces that she is expecting (shocking)! Saba, unwillingly but at everyone's behest goes to California to be with her sister, where she meets Amir (Adnan Malik). He's a cousin of their family friends and of course it's love at first sight… for him, at least.
He makes his feelings clear to his cousin. Over at Irtiza and Saman's, Irtiza too is convinced that Amir likes Saba. Saba however, is not at all interested and has a very strong reaction to this whole scenario.
It's an extremely difficult situation for Saba. Her conversation with the Almighty is very telling of her convoluted frame of mind. Her conversation with dadi about having two identities is also very telling.
She loves her sister, she loves Irtiza, and later she absolutely loves Maaz (Saman's son) to death, but there is nothing she can do or say to get what she wants without hurting people. She can't explain her irrational reaction about Amir to Irtiza and Saman either.
Her equation with Irtiza is complex where both of them care deeply for each other and I think Irtiza subconsciously does love her.
It's an undefined equation that never works; especially when one person is aware of their feelings and the other isn't and by the way is also married to the former's sister.
On the side, is the story of Safeer (Junaid Khan) and Soniya (Shazia Naz). They live in the US and are in love, but Soniya is Hindu. Safeer's mother is Irtiza's dadi's niece so he goes to Pakistan to attend Irtiza's wedding where his mother doesn't take well to his confession that he is in love with a Hindu girl. She wants him to marry Saba as that has been her wish since forever.
When he comes back to the US, Soniya tells him she is expecting. Apparently Safeer never took health class in school and doesn't understand how this could have happened since (and I quote): "Hum ne to aisa nahi chaha tha."
He wants Soniya to get an abortion but later realizes that he's an adult and needs to take responsibility of what they did. They get married, but mommy dearest doesn't know all of this… yet.
Now, I personally think Soniya let him off very easily after he wanted to abort their child. This is just one of many problems I have with the drama (more on that later).
I mean the thought that her soon-to-be husband wanted to abort their baby for any reason has got to be disheartening, especially since he never really showed any remorse for wanting to do that.
Soniya is the one who went through hell and had to leave her parents' house too as they also wanted her to abort the baby. All of a sudden he realizes that he is an adult? And what if their child ever found out that his father never even wanted him? What possible explanation could Safeer ever give to his kid for that?
Good acting saves Bin Roye's questionable plot
Acting wise, mostly everyone is fantastic! Farhat Ishtiaq has always been clear on how her characters are sketched out. Armeena Khan is perfect for the role of a girl who grew up in the west since she actually did and has the accent to prove it. She plays the role of a kind yet extremely confident and secure Saman to a tee. She selflessly loves everyone she is related to and I love that about Saman.
Humayun Saeed is well, Humayun Saeed. No one, whether it is his peers or the younger lot, compares to him. The guy goes on screen and makes his presence known. He brings grace and maturity to Irtiza as only he can and is flawless.
Junaid Khan is very robotic as Safeer; he seems to have zero emotions when he's speaking to his mother or Soniya. I'm not quite sure what the purpose of his story line is either.
Adnan Malik as Amir is adequate but I don't get why Amir wants to marry Saba since she is visibily annoyed by him whenever they are in the same frame. She negates everything he likes. In the year 2016, how does he not get the hint? I'm guessing he'll be gone in the next episode or two.
The clear winner is Mahira Khan. It's only because of her that you feel for Saba and the complexities of her character and what she goes through. You feel for her every time you see her restrained composure after the wedding, you feel for her when she reacts to Amir and you feel for her when she is talking to dadi questioning her sanity.
Had anyone else played Saba, I could not have sat through nine episodes.
Things I don't understand and neither will you, probably
So, as I mentioned earlier, Bin Roye is plagued with massive plot holes and gaps in logic.
For example, how does Irtiza and the family not realize how completely obsessed/possessive Saba is with/about Irtiza? How do they not discourage her behavior towards him? How does her dadi watch her breakdown after the nikah and still force her to go to California? How and why did Irtiza encourage such behavior?
This is completely illogical and unfathomable to me.
And here is my problem with how girls are portrayed in most Pakistani dramas. For some odd reason, they're seldom encouraged to develop their individuality. Due to her unrequited love, Saba became an extension of Irtiza and didn't have a clue as to who she was or what she liked and didn't like. And now, she's in a situation that could absolutely have been prevented had her family kept some form of distance between her and Irtiza while she was growing up.
I also cannot in good conscience condone dramas telling girls that it's okay for them to obsess over men because at the end, 'it will work out'.
Why Irtiza had such a big hand in raising Saba, I can't fathom. Her mother's entire existence was and is about Saman, forgetting about Saba. With girls already so confused in Pakistan, writers have a responsibility to write women characters who know their worth and aren't defined by men.
And while we're at it, let's get one thing straight; no one is anyone's bhai, unless it's biological!
I'm not sure how well Bin Roye is doing ratings wise, but either it should have been a movie or a drama; definitely not both. The effect has worn off since there are scenes copy pasted from the movie to the drama and they are just not making sense.
The story so far could easily have been condensed into five episodes had it not been given the 'filmy' feel of the songs and dances. I read the novel years ago and saw the film; both were great.
But as a full-fledged drama, spanning what I can only assume would be over 30 episodes (because you know, it's HUM TV), well that I'm not too sure about especially since it was shot two years ago and it definitely shows.
Additionally, the editing is quite choppy, as is always the case with HUM TV's editing department!
Is this a case of milking a movie and its stars for all they're worth even if the result is below par?
Bin Roye has yet to prove otherwise.

Humayun should have played the role of Chacha in place of Javed Sheikh. Some other young actor could have played the role of Irtiza. Humayun looks way older than Mahira and Armeena.
Dec 01, 2016 09:39am
for the love of God stop with these incestuous relationships, this is sick.
Dec 01, 2016 10:15am
Finally! Kudos to the writer for pointing out the responsibility of Pakistani serial writers, They work so hard to increase the popularity of their show but forget that it influences millions of Pakistanis.
Dec 01, 2016 10:21am
One of the most balanced & apt reviews I came across thankfully it raises valid points, somewhere Me also had as a audience. "editing" has literally been a biggest loophole. Since I have seen both film & now following drama, surely its easy to make out which scenes are copy pasted, but thats OK. The Saba's family & her relation with them is something I cannot connect at no point, be in film or drama also, instead of portraying Saba as a loner,her character cud have been developed more stronger after Irtiza-Saman's wedding giving a growth to Saba's character & individuality instead of showing her in 2 identities, one who is still nursing her broken heart & other happy for her sister. It wud have been more connective if, after Saman's death there wud be a gradual process for Irtiza-Saba coming together all over again, retaining the warmth of their relationship. Last but not least, watching BinRoye, only for Humayun Saeed...& no doubts, no once cud have portrayed Irtiza better than him.

Can't understand why Pak entertainment industry surrounding only this picture since its release. their is not many things for entertainment I guess.
Dec 01, 2016 10:58am
furthermore, Humayun Saeed is looking more cheap desi abroad in drama.... selfish where he goes...
Dec 01, 2016 11:43am
Good analysis. I love watching Pakistani dramas but I really wish writers were either paid more to write less predictable stuff.
Dec 01, 2016 12:01pm
Criticism is not justified. It is a beautiful drama with wonderful performances from Humayoon Saeed and Mahira Khan.
Dec 01, 2016 01:28pm
I personally think the movie version was much better. But TV version is good too but they could have added some more things in the movie,for example they should have added the parts of the actor who Mahira Khan agrees to marry in the film even when she knows he is already married.
Agreed with the writer's view Bin Roye should have been either a film or a drama, but since the bread and butter of Hum network is Television and therefore how could they ditch this medium and loose an opportunity of engaging their audience and earning more money. From Day one, Bin Roye actually looked like a drama primarily due to its direction, and the kind of extremely romanticized storyline it has, these sort of stories hardly work out at the big screen however, have the ability to be pulled on TV screen. The real power goes to Mahira Khan, the prime reason why I am watching it. Just like Sanam Saeed, Mahira also has the presence n immense acting capabilities to get us hooked to screens.
Dec 01, 2016 03:04pm
Bin Roye is a cinematic misery re modeled as slow poison for people who won't pay $10 a month for Netflix. The only thing going for it is probably the cinematography.
Dec 01, 2016 06:11pm
I am reminded by a joke that was played on Humayun...a show host asked about his favorite fun movie and Humayun replied "Javani phir nai ani" "to phir maan bhi jao na yaar." was the host's reply.
Dec 01, 2016 07:23pm
I simply loved what u wrote about the drama. I've watched the movie it was a good attempt but felt like a condensed drama with songs. I'm not watching the drama with regularity but totally agree with your viewpoint. 'And while we're at it, let's get one thing straight; no one is anyone's bhai, unless it's biological!' 'But as a full-fledged drama, spanning what I can only assume would be over 30 episodes (because you know, it's HUM TV), well that I'm not too sure about especially since it was shot two years ago and it definitely shows. Additionally, the editing is quite choppy, as is always the case with HUM TV's editing department! ' So very correct!!
Dec 01, 2016 08:03pm
I really enjoined reading this long writing and it is definitely the first time I have read the whole page form the start to the very end I agreed with most of the things that the writer commented about I have also seen the movie,Bin Roye and I am very annoyed by the editing part of this drama I agree that hum tv editing department has to work hard to produce a master peice
Dec 01, 2016 08:25pm
I dont understand the criticism of Safeer and Soniya plot line. There are many men, especially in the west, who get freaked out when they first find out about unplanned pregnancy but after thinking about it they fully embrace it and turn out to be great fathers. His comment " humne tu aisa nahi chaha" probably meant we used protection so it shouldn't have happened. Also, when the kids grows up with a loving father, he/she wont care about the father's initial reaction. Atleast he didnt leave the Soniya to be a single mother. Maybe Junaid is just a bad actor for not portraying it well enough.
Dec 02, 2016 03:54am
Its so slow drama, i am not sure how people managed to be seated for 3 hours in Cinema as its special not a TV drama, more like a Topi drma
Dec 02, 2016 09:06am
@MCDErmont Can you explain the incestuous relationships
Dec 02, 2016 09:10am
Its a great movie and would do great as a TV serial.
Dec 02, 2016 09:14am
@Dipak Singham your guess is wrong and needs more knowledge. We are way ahead in dramas
Dec 02, 2016 08:41pm
this is quite interesting story,this is the only drama,I am watching these days,different and unique story.i am always jealous with mahira acting and beside this she is so pretty and acted well.:)
Dec 05, 2016 12:24am
good review. I would like to add that Mahira Khan and Humayun Saeed should play roles near their real age. Really, Mahira is playing a 22 year old university student and Humayun is playing a early 30s role!! And she must be in her mid 30s and him in his mid 40s. It makes the whole thing weird and less believable.

As promised, I am writing my second blog of the evening about another variety I found on the 1718 Saturnus Goertz daler. This variety occurs on the obverse of the coin, specifically dealing with the placement of Saturnus’ figure. I found this variety a couple blogs ago when I was discussing a reverse variety on a pair of Saturnus dalers, so I will be reusing the same images I used in that blog.
�Another variety has been found to add to my growing list. I have spotted several while browsing through images of possible purchases but taking the time to catalog them is a different story. This variety occurs on the 1718 Phoebus Goertz daler, specifically on the reverse. I happened to come across this variety when I was looking through coin auctions online. I typically find these varieties through the exact same thing; I look around online at current auctions or availabilities, and I come across a piece that holds a trait that varies from other pieces I have observed. Finding these varieties is difficult sometimes, but it is also very rewarding.

Bro if you really want to see rush down here now and see for yourself but guy she seating right with a guy. I guess they on a date” He said and that tore my heart ..
I just dropped the call and my body drop flows. I summoned strength and told my boss I wanted to see my closest ‘Frederick’ He permitted me and went straight to mega shopping complex there I saw my eyes. My heart stopped beating. How could this happen to me…
hi Lisa…your story brought memories–some painful, some joyful–of Valentines Days past. That wondering if you’d get a card or not….did someone really love you?
Since the falling apart of my marriage 5 years ago, Valentines Days have slipped by unnoticed or unregarded. Just another day.
But today I received a text with a heartfelt expression of love from someone I hold very dear. . . a second chance at real love. Perhaps, perhaps not. But feeling love is wonderful and loving someone in return is such a joy. I feel blessed today.
So today on my morning run through the west end of town, I sent out love through my smile and “good mornings” and a friendly wave to the strangers I met, the old men on the street, the young woman in the cafe, the shopkeeper sitting on a stool behind the counter, the old woman sitting at her 3rd floor window, a bus driver.
And in my encounters with others, I intend to give them more of my attention for as Paul Tillich reminds us, “Listening is an act of love.”
Yesterday, I felt a bit depressed about Valentine’s Day. Even though I am quite happy as single I’d love to have a partner. I talked about to a friend. This morning I received an electronic rose from her. She wrote me: “For me you are a treasure. Not just on Valentine’s Day”. This card reminded me that our friendship has survived three relationship, that she always gives me her support and trust when I am feeling a bit down. I am deeply grateful that she is my friend. So I decided to spend a lovely evening alone, enjoying all the special treats I love.
I assume that Valentine’s Day is a nice reminder, yet love should be with us every day. And it can be found in many places when we are open to it!

Yeah you right esp. like in the scenes also from Dave Chapelle Show and he did his sketches of Prince to hilarious…
They gave him a fork for a Afro pick lmao! I just keep picturing the Little Mermaid combing her hair with that fork
I LOVE his story! That is the most interesting story of going natural I've ever heard. His hair is awesome and so is he! Cheers to male presence in the natural hair community!
Cool hair. He should start a male oriented site! That would be a cool addition to the plethora of natural hair care blogs, most of which have a predominantly female bent.
I love his hair in the first picture! Grow hair, grow. I want to rock that style. Anyways he sounds like a super cool dude. Wish he would've told us more about the products he uses..
He is absoulutely right! There should be more male features. They bring an interesting perspective on hair care and going natural. Thanks!
