The second session of the 113th Congress enacted into law 114 out of the 3,036 introduced bills (3.8 percent). Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[12] For more information pertaining to Rangel's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[13]
Rangel voted in opposition of HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[14]
Rangel voted in opposition of HR 2217 - the DHS Appropriations Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines.[14]
Rangel voted in favor of House Amendment 69, which would have amended HR 3 to "require that the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security, conduct a study of the vulnerabilities of the Keystone XL pipeline to a terrorist attack and certify that necessary protections have been put in place." The amendment failed on May 22, 2013, with a vote of 176 - 239 and was largely along party lines.[14]
Rangel voted in support of HR 624 - the CISPA (2013). The bill passed the House on April 18, 2013, with a vote of 288 - 127. The bill permitted federal intelligence agencies to share cybersecurity intelligence and information with private entities and utilities.[15] The bill was largely supported by Republicans, but divided the Democratic Party.[14]
Rangel voted against the Farm Bill on July 11, 2013. The bill passed in a 216-208 vote.[16] The bill passed included farm policy, but did not include food stamps.[17]
Rangel signed a letter sent to Collin Peterson in August 2013, asking him to keep Steve King's amendment out of the final Farm Bill.[18] The "Protect Interstate Commerce Act" amendment prevents states from applying their own laws on agricultural products to agricultural products from another state.[19] King introduced the amendment in response to a law in California, requiring a larger size cage for egg-producing chickens. King represents Iowa, which is a large egg producer.
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House wi

Hand Pallet Jack Hollister MO 65672
When trained properly the forklift workers feel much more assured than before and also exhibit signs of happiness and satisfaction. Many companies take pride in using a range of trained and professional forklift operators.
Forklifts are constructed to handle heavy loads, you can eliminate 2000 lb skid after 2000 lb slide from a truck with your forklift in a fraction of the time it would require you to do so with a pallet jack – and also with all the forklift, you won't be breaking a sweat or cracking your back when doing this.
It's a great idea to have a look at the used forklift prior to putting any money down. Much like other used vehicles, used forklifts can be in bad shape and require extensive repair. It's important to be sure that the used forklift isn't a lemon. Many used forklift dealers provide "better than new" guarantees that assure buyers that the used forklift is in good shape. Many of these warranties are more lasting and offer broader coverage than warranties covering new forklifts.
How To Ensure Forklift Safety in Hollister
Pricing is subjective and depends on several factors. When determining the value of a forklift, note down all the information you know about it so you can find out where to make cost deductions, and where the price could increase due to a special feature or current part replacement.
Forklift trucks are not just known for lifting stuff but also for being a versatile machine which has different functions based on the attachment you join to it. There are numerous attachments available there which you can use as an alternative purpose of a forklift, including rotator, sideshifter, pole attachment and many more. However, the forklift parts would include truck frame, taxi, overhead guard, power supply, mast, load back rest, counter fat, and tilt cylinders. These will be the forklift parts that are in charge of making it a helpful device.
Forklifts, lifting trucks along with any other type heavy machinery often arrive with a nameplate that indicates, amongst others, the weight the machines have the ability to manage: typically between one and five tons. Bigger machines which have around fifty ton loading capability are all used to load larger items, like shipping containers. The information located on the nameplate is extremely important and should never be removed or ignored: loads shouldn't exceed these limitations, as it can be extremely dangerous. In most jurisdictions, it is prohibited to remove or tamper with the nameplate without consent from the machine's manufacturer.
Benefits of Pallet Flow Racking Systems in Hollister MO
Forklift components can be bought from several sources. Both new and used components are usually available wherever forklifts are offered. Many dealerships have extensive catalogues that record the components they need available. There are a number of different manufacturers of forklift parts. The same company that produced the forklift can produce the replacement parts or a generic manufacturer can fabricate them.
The control exerted by the fork lift trucks and their capability to lift heavy weights is rather overpowering. They are offered in diverse load capacities and on an average that the capability is around 5 Tonnes. The control to raise and lower the forks is inside the trucks and also the end user can tilt the mast to compensate for the inclination of the load to change the angle. This aids in not letting the load slip off just like that. The machine also provides some variations whereby the forks can be transferred laterally. This produces the placement of the load easier. There are hydraulic controls within the forklift that make sure the motion of forks and also guarantee that the operator doesn't need to escape the taxi to correct them manually.

Forklift operators frequently work at least eight-hour changes, but working hours can vary dependent on the company, business and the sort of materials necessary to be transported. Many forklift operators work 2nd or 3rd changes in facilities with 24-hour surgeries and immediately shipments.
Forklift batteries comprise of many different cells depending on the size of the battery. A battery which begins shorting or using a significantly shorter run time during a change may require a cell replacement. An expert can use a unique tool to read the voltage output of every individual cell. If a cell has a below average or abnormal output reading it may be better to replace the cell to accomplish regular run occasions during shifts. Cell replacement for industrial batteries can be done on site in a short quantity of time ensuring you have all trucks offered for performance.

Vanderbilt romps over Southeastern Louisiana 80-58 - Vanderbilt - Scout
Vanderbilt romps over Southeastern Louisiana 80-58VandyMania Staff11/22/2002Nashville, Tenn.- Matt Freije scored 19 points while guards Russell Lakey and Jason Holwerda had 5 assists each as Vanderbilt downed the Southeastern Louisiana Lions to open the 2002-03 basketball season in a game played at Memorial Gymnasium.The Commodores built an early an 11 point lead at 20-9 with 10:31 remaining in the half when Matt Freije made a foul shot after being fouled on a successful 3-point attempt. The Lions battled back using a physical man-to-man defense to create turnovers from Vanderbilt. A layup by Dee Gadsden with 8 seconds remaining knotted the score at 30-30 with a half still to be played.
Vanderbilt opened the second half with a 11-0 that gave Vanderbilt a 41-30 lead with 16:55 remaining. Vanderbilt's lead grew to 14 with 12:33 remaining when freshman guard Mario Moore made a 3-point shot. Moore went on to score 5 points in his first college game.
Vanderbilt extended their lead to 21 at 63-42 when freshman Adam Payton scored a layup with 9:55 remaining in the game. Southeastern Louisiana, who were led in scoring by Amir Abdur-Rahim with 13, cut the Vanderbilt lead to 15 with 3:48 remaining in the game when Abdur-Rahim scored a pair of free throws. Vanderbilt, who had emptied the bench of reserves, then returned their starting lineup to the game.
The Commodores led by as many as 23 late in the second half. Southeastern Louisiana led briefly at 3-2 very early in the game. Other scorers for Vanderbilt included Brian Thornton 15; Russell Lakey 8; Scott Hundley 4; Jason Holwerda 12; Julian Terrell 7; Corey Smith 4; David Przybyszewski 2; Adam Payton 4. Vanderbilt is now 1-0 on the early 2002-03 season. Sunday night at 7 pm Vanderbilt hosts Alabama A&M. Southeastern Louisiana falls to 0-1. The Lions host Troy State on Monday.

Title: Interface-engineered high-mobility high-κ/Ge pMOSFETs with 1-nm equivalent oxide thickness
Keywords: Fluorine (F)
Citation: Xie, R., Phung, T.H., He, W., Yu, M., Zhu, C. (2009). Interface-engineered high-mobility high-κ/Ge pMOSFETs with 1-nm equivalent oxide thickness. IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices 56 (6) : 1330-1337. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1109/TED.2009.2019420
Abstract: High-κ/germanium (Ge) interfaces are significantly improved through a new interface engineering scheme of using both effective pregate surface GeO2 passivation and postgate dielectric (postgate) treatment incorporating fluorine (F) into a high-κ/Ge gate stack. Capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics are significantly improved with minimum density of interface states (Dit of 2 × 1011 cm-2 · eV-1 for Ge MOS capacitors. A hole mobility up to 396 cm2/V · s is achieved for Ge p-metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (pMOSFETs) with equivalent oxide thickness that is ∼10 Å and gate leakage current density that is less than 10-3A/cm2 at Vt ± 1 V. A high drain current of 37.8 μA/μm at Vg - Vt= Vd = -1.2 V is presented for a channel length of 10 μm. The Ge MOSFET interface properties are further investigated using the variable-rise-and-fall-time charge-pumping method. Over three times Dit reduction in both upper and lower halves of the Ge bandgap is observed with F incorporation, which is consistent with the observation that frequency-dependent flat voltage shift is much less for samples with F incorporation in the C-V characteristics of Ge MOS capacitors. © 2009 IEEE.

The very thing that makes grocery delivery hard—that food goes bad—is the reason it’s so desirable to a company like Amazon. Because cheese grows mold and meat goes rancid and milk sours, consumers can’t hoard it in their cupboards or refrigerators indefinitely as they might toilet paper or laundry detergent. As a result, the average family hits the supermarket at minimum once a week; there’s nothing else you purchase or consume so much or so often. For Amazon, getting in on that frequency is critical to further ingraining itself in our routines and behaviors. “Food is the platform for selling you everything else,” says Walter Robb, the former co-CEO of Whole Foods. “It’s an everyday way into your life. There’s nothing else that happens quite that way.” Amazon’s quest is therefore about much more than just food.

"Each and every one of you is eating for 100 trillion—that's the number of bugs and bacteria in your gut," Dr. David Perlmutter told the audience of fit folks gathered at Glasshouse for the Equinox High Performance for Living Summit. "How beautiful," Maria Shriver joked, looking somewhat repulsed.
The summit kicked off with the panel "Unlocking the Secrets to the High Performance Brain: Movement, Nutrition, Regeneration," with Maria Shriver, Dr. Perlmutter, filmmaker Max Lugavere and Dr. Jennifer Martin. Each panelist had a focus: Shriver discussed giving back, Dr. Perlmutter lectured on eating right, Lugavere talked about working out and Dr. Martin wanted everyone to put sleep first. The foursome discussed why gut lining matters, the causes of Alzheimer's disease and most importantly, balance.
"I'm supposed to lead a high performance life," Shriver told the audience, asking the other panelists how to balance the day-to-day, while still getting enough sleep, eating healthy and finding time for fitness. Dr. Martin warned that we put sleep last, which is especially true for busy New Yorkers.
"We're learning now about how being sleep deprived makes people make bad decisions," Dr. Martin said. So, the next time you reach for a vat of cookie dough, perhaps think about going to bed at a reasonable time, instead of digging in. Shriver believes getting off of sugar is key, but that it isn't an easy feat; in fact, it can be more difficult than kicking a cocaine habit, she told the crowd. "Our sweet tooth exists to tell people fruit is ripe and winter is coming. [It's] a way to survive during times of caloric scarcity," Lugavere added.

Lugavere was a firm proponent of regular workouts. "Movement is medicine. We're a species made to move," he said passionately. "Our ancestors ran as fast as Usain Bolt!" He suggested audience members stop sitting at desks all day and using marathons as an excuse to carbo load. Eating habits were a hot topic.
"How do we turn off our brains?" Shriver inquired. "One of the big myths is that we can shut it off," Dr. Martin explained, bumming out the audience of high-achievers.

Up next was a panel with June Ambrose, a music video stylist, who talked with Adam Glassman of O, The Oprah Magazine. Glassman announced Ambrose by calling her "a woman who wore many hats," which was particularly true, considering her Pharrell-inspired topper. Jay-Z has referred to Ambrose as his "Secretary of Style" in the past, which explains exactly how busy she is. This is the woman who put Missy Elliot in a trash bag, Sean Combs (is he Puffy or P. Diddy these days?) in a shiny suit and Jay-Z in his first suit. She told the audience she had to design his first suit, because no designers would work with him; his second suit was Armani.
"I always try to be present in the moment because everything is happening really fast," Ambrose told the audience. Growing up as a self-described latchkey kid, she makes dinner for her kids as a way of "not feeling guilty," and treats it like a fashion project. "I accessorize the fish," she admitted. "I'm taking my philosophy of fashion and bringing it to the home."
Ambrose went on to discuss breaking the taboo of putting yourself first as a mother. "I think when you say it to kids at a young age they don't resent you," she confessed. Seeing such powerful women talk about how they manage to get enough sleep, nutrition and find time to work out was encouraging, and offered a helpful reminder to always take time for yourself.
The panels proved that while working out might seem frivolous, especially during trying times, it's about more than just body image or vanity. Host Dhani Jones summed it up: "It's about setting priorities."

Every April for the next several hundred years, a small asteroid is visible to a select few telescopes on Earth. That asteroid is Kamo'oalewa, a space rock that a team of astronomers says is likely an ancient fragment of our Moon.
The astronomers recently observed the extremely faint Kamo'oalewa through the Large Binocular Telescope in Arizona and analysed the way light reflected off it. They found that the asteroid's spectra matched lunar rocks from NASA's Apollo mission, a strong indicator that the rock is actually Moon rock. Their results are published today in Communications Earth & Environment.
"I looked through every near-Earth asteroid spectrum we had access to, and nothing matched," said Benjamin Sharkey, lead author of the paper and an astronomer at the University of Arizona, in a university release.
Kamo'oalewa is a Hawaiian word that alludes to the object's oscillating visibility in the sky; in April you see it, and then you don't. The asteroid doesn't inhabit the solar system's main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, as most do. Instead, this particular 60.96 m object is a quasi-satellite, meaning it's a near-Earth asteroid that does orbit the Sun but is closer to Earth than other asteroids. (In this case, close means about 9 million miles from our planet; the Moon is about 402,336 km away at its farthest.)
The rock was originally discovered in 2016 by the PanSTARRS telescope in Hawaii. Sharkey's team spent the next three years investigating Kamo'oalewa's origins, with some hiatus due to telescope closures caused by the covid-19 pandemic. They took their final data this spring, some "much needed follow-up observations," Sharkey said in the release, adding that the asteroid "is easier to explain with the Moon than other ideas."
They compared the asteroid's reflected light with the way other near-Earth asteroids reflect light, and the Apollo rocks were the nearest match. Besides the light reflectance data, the team said there were other characteristics of Kamo'oalewa that set it apart, like its location in space.
"It is very unlikely that a garden-variety near-Earth asteroid would spontaneously move into a quasi-satellite orbit like Kamo'oalewa's," said co-author Renu Malhotra, a planetary scientist at the University of Arizona, in the same release. Malhotra's lab is separately working to determine the asteroid's origins (that is, when and how exactly it broke away from the Moon).
Malhotra added that Kamo'oalewa's current orbit will last. Her team estimates the entered its current orbit around 500 years ago and has about 300 years left there. So if we're going to confirm that the rock is a slice of the Moon, we've got three centuries to do it.

Giving up on alcohol for even the shortest time has numerous health benefits. These benefits increase when you decide to completely remove alcohol from your system. The gains range from physical to mental and even social. It improves your liver function, your gut health, skin, your social life, and many more. Here are outlined seven health of giving up on alcohol.
Better Sleep
When you quit alcohol, your sleeping routine improves. The periods of insomnia reduce, and you get better sleep. Your two sleep cycles, slow-wave sleep, and REM are not disrupted. So, you are alert. Remember, sleep is very crucial for overall health.
Improved Mood
Alcohol inhibits the intestines from absorbing crucial nutrients that will convert into energy. This, in turn, affects your brain function and mood. When you give up drinking alcohol, you give the chance to the intestines to heal and absorb nutrients. This way, your body gets more energy, and your mood improves.
Reduced Cancer Risk
Alcohol has been associated with different types of cancer like cancer of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, digestive tract, and colon. It has also been associated with liver cancer and breast cancer in women due to hormonal imbalance. So, quitting alcohol puts you a step further from these types of cancer.
Better Memory
Alcohol hinders the Hippocampus. This is a crucial part of the brain that deals with your memory. Once the function of this part is jeopardized, you experience memory loss. When you quit alcohol, you will realize that your memory starts to improve.
Improved Skin Health
If you have noticed, people who drink excess alcohol often have blotchy and red skin. This is mostly because of dehydration. In worst cases, a person also develops eczema. Remember, alcohol suppresses the ability of the body to produce vasopressin. When you drink, you lose a lot of water that is important for different functions. If you want great and well-hydrated skin, it is time to quit drinking excess alcohol.
Weight Loss
One thing you need to know is that alcohol contains a lot of calories. If a bottle contains 100 calories and you take three of them, it means you have taken 300 calories a day. This will read to quick weight gain, and you might even develop a beer belly. Furthermore, excessive drinking affects the ratio of estrogen to testosterone making it hard to gain muscle or lose fat. The fact that you are drinking too much alcohol and exercising less is also another reason to gain weight. So if you want to start losing weight, quitting drinking alcohol is the first important thing you should do.
Healthier Liver
The work of the liver is to clean toxins out of the system. Alcohol is one of the main toxins, and once you start abusing it, you put too much pressure on the liver. Many people who are heavy drinkers have problems like liver cancer and cirrhosis. So, quitting alcohol will reduce the chances of such complications. So giving up on alcohol means a healthy liver.
Takeaway!
When you give up on alcohol, these are some health benefits you start to gain. Alcohol takes much of your health, and it is crucial to improve yourself. So, for better sleep. Improve memory, hydration, low risk of cancer, a healthy liver, better skin health, and weight loss, quit drinking alcohol.

Samantha Renck: Becoming a member of the present at present is Chad Robichaux, a former Marine with Power Reconnaissance, and his interpreter, Aziz.
Monday marked the one-year anniversary for the reason that Taliban captured Afghanistan’s capital of Kabul, successfully taking on the nation. Chad and Aziz, thanks each a lot for becoming a member of the present at present.
Chad Robichaux: Completely. Samantha, thanks for having us on.
Renck: After all. Now I need to flashback to August of 2021, when the Taliban was making its approach to Kabul. Aziz, I need to begin with you. Are you able to inform us a bit of bit in regards to the days main as much as the Taliban takeover and the way your loved ones was dealing with the state of affairs?
Aziz: Thanks very a lot for the time. To be trustworthy with you, it was a very darkish day and really dangerous time. There was concern. There was disappointments because the provinces had been collapsing and the Taliban had been reaching to the capital. I used to be completely dying, like a battery will lose its cost. I used to be seeing my physique from inside; it was dying.
After which alternatively, I had my brothers, Chad, and another guys, they had been texting me and so they had been giving me the hope that they’re lastly coming to avoid wasting me. I don’t need to be nervous. They usually knew it in what state of affairs I used to be. And particularly after I was watching the information that they had been killing all these individuals, the Afghan Nationwide Military, the police, the … guys, interpreters or anyone who was concerned both with the ex-government of Afghanistan or labored beneath the USA, [whether] contractors or instantly for the army or authorities.
So we had been really, the household was beneath concern. I personally was beneath concern and my daughters had been crying as they had been seeing it. They had been coming and at last there was completely disappointments.
Renck: Now, did you anticipate that the autumn would occur? And what was mentally going by means of your minds, your loved ones’s minds, within the weeks main as much as it?
Aziz: Within the weeks main as much as it, we didn’t anticipate that it’ll occur simply as [it] occurred. We had been considering possibly due to that sturdy military we had over there, the sturdy Zero items that had been skilled by CIA, the ammunition and weapons that that they had. We had been considering it can most likely a minimum of take them just a few years earlier than the regime collapsed. We weren’t anticipating it, that the regime will collapse unexpectedly inside the issues of hours. Like inside 24 hours, the entire system collapsed. That was completely unpredictable.
However nonetheless there was the concern of like when the federal government, the USA authorities, turned their again to all of the interpreters and all these folks that … labored for them both instantly or not directly. There was completely concern of being killed in entrance of your loved ones, being tortured, which was actually a dangerous state of affairs for me.
Renck: Yeah, completely. I’ve a textual content message really pulled up from Chad on my cellphone proper now. It was dated Aug. 20, 2021, telling me that he had efficiently evacuated you and your loved ones. Chad, I need to dive a bit of bit extra into the evacuation itself in only a second. However Aziz, are you able to inform us what life has been like for you and your loved ones since leaving Afghanistan final yr?
Aziz: To be trustworthy with you, now we have been by means of many adjustments since final yr so far. We’ve spent like 9 months in limbo in Abu Dhabi due to the State Division slow-processing the immigrants within the humanitarian metropolis in Abu Dhabi. After which lastly transferring to United States.
There are some items and bads. The dangerous half is like these few days that we had been first attempting to depart, however we couldn’t depart. We had been attempting to return to the airport as Chad’s associates, that they had been contained in the Kabul airport, they had been sending me GPS places that I ought to come to this gate with my household. However due to all the large crowd and other people, we couldn’t make it. Plus there have been totally different safety strains, just like the Taliban safety line was within the outer circle. Within the center circle, there was the Zero unit guys, the Afghan army. After which the inner circle was managed by the U.S. Marines.
They shot at me and my household a number of instances each day after I obtained a brand new course to achieve with my household … for the aim of getting contained in the airport, we couldn’t make it. We had been getting upset. We had been getting hopeless each day … . However lastly, after just a few days, when the fellows bodily needed to come exterior and discover us within the crowd, then we had been in a position to make it inside.
We noticed folks that they obtained shot at. We noticed kids that individuals step on and households had been misplaced from one another, like [a] daughter misplaced mother and pa, like [a] son misplaced their brothers. I imply, there was every kind of dangerous and heartbreaking conditions that we’ve been by means of. However, we had been seeing [the] lifeless in entrance of us. I used to be taking a look at my kids’s faces, at my spouse’s face, that they had been so scared and so, I imply, crying inside.

However then as soon as we ended up in Abu Dhabi, alternatively, since we weren’t vaccinated, we spent loads of time contained in the constructing. We weren’t allowed to maneuver from one constructing to a different constructing as a result of to begin with, all of the immigrants weren’t vaccinated. Secondly, they didn’t have visas; there was a concern of that they could soar over the wall and ran away into town.
I imply, there was every kind of perceptions that they saved us contained in the buildings as prisoners. We eat the identical factor. We slept all day and night time inside the identical room. We didn’t have the liberty to stroll from one constructing to a different constructing as a result of they had been simply attempting to regulate the crowds and the individuals, as a result of all people was pushing themselves to both attain to the constructing the place the American NGOs had been or the USA Consulate, or the CBP constructing or the Afghan Embassy.
They had been simply attempting the identical factor as they had been doing in Afghan airport, as a result of there have been every kind of rumors that the USA will solely take such-and-such and other people, however not such-and-such and other people. Then they’ll ship among the individuals to Brazil or to Uganda or another nations. So all people was nonetheless type of within the temper or within the motion of pushing one another, elbowing one another, attempt to make it first, in order that they get the possibility or the ticket to fly to United States.
I imply, each rumor or information that was unfold out, it was killing us. The kids, each day, they had been getting upset. My spouse and myself, as I used to be the lead for all of the Afghan immigrants contained in the humanitarian metropolis, I used to be the principle contact between the U.S. Embassy, the NGOs, the Crimson Cross, all of the UEE CIDs attempting to create communications.
I labored actually laborious between all these buildings and the 17,000 Afghan immigrants on every ground, every constructing, every really cluster I created communication channels by means of WhatsApp teams so when all these individuals come just like the vaccine group, once they got here in the midst of the night time, they wake me up.
They’re like, “Mr. Aziz, we don’t know the place to start out, learn how to begin, as a result of the individuals are not respecting the road. They’re simply pushing one another. There need to be some kind of management. There need to be some kind of administration from among the many immigrants in order that we should always have the ability to do our job in a finest method.”
However then lastly we made it to United States like after 9 months spending in a walled compound the place there was no bushes, no grass, no freedom of strolling from one place to a different place. It was identical to spend the time in a lockup.
Renck: Wow. That’s fairly a narrative and fairly a journey that you just needed to take to get right here to the USA. Do you’ve household, or I do know your fast household obtained out, do you’ve any relations or associates which can be nonetheless in Afghanistan? And if that’s the case, have you ever been in a position to get involved with them to see what’s been occurring there?
Aziz: Sure, my mother and father and my siblings are sadly nonetheless caught in Afghanistan. They needed to transfer from the capital proper earlier than the Taliban takeover the capital. They needed to transfer to a unique province, which I can not title right here for his or her safety goal.
They usually transfer to totally different provinces and so they’re simply nonetheless in hiding as a result of lots of people on the capital and the provinces which can be close to the capital, they know them, who they’re and whose mother and father or siblings they’re due to what I did for the USA authorities and the army in Afghanistan. That’s additionally both instantly or not directly affecting their lives negatively.
Renck: Chad, I need to ask you a bit of bit in regards to the evacuation efforts that you just helped with. As I discussed earlier, I keep in mind getting this textual content message from you telling me that you just had efficiently evacuated Aziz and his household. And also you additionally helped greater than 17,000 Afghans and allies stranded within the nation. Stroll us by means of, for those who may, the logistics of the evacuations.
Robichaux: It was clearly very difficult and really quick. And Samantha, I’m an individual of religion, and so I’ll let you know that there’s no approach to clarify really what occurred aside from it was divine, as a result of the way in which issues got here collectively … was simply miraculous. I imply, doorways that had been open for us, folks that stepped in to assist financially, logistically, the way in which it occurred and the way in which it occurred so rapidly was simply one thing that’s very troublesome to even clarify.
However initially we obtained collectively, myself and Sarah Verardo teamed up from Mighty Oaks Basis and The Independence Fund to start out Save Our Allies. I began contacting former particular operations veterans that I knew and trusted very properly, who had the expertise to tug off initially the rescue of Aziz and his household. And as we had been placing this collectively, one of many group members famous that there was a bunch of about 3,500 orphans; we type of paused for a second. As a substitute of simply getting Aziz and his household, why don’t we get different individuals? As a result of now we have the abilities, now we have the expertise, doorways are opening to offer us the flexibility to do that.
Sarah was in a position to get us entry to go within the H Kaia Airport by means of the joint chiefs. So we began taking a look at other ways to assist different individuals. And we knew that there can be weak teams like ladies and youngsters, Christians that will be persecuted, not solely the interpreters themselves and their households, however Individuals. And so we made the choice to assist as many individuals as we may.
And in that effort, we reached out. One among our group members, Joe Roberts, had a contact with the royal household of the UAE, which is the place the Abu Dhabi Humanitarian Heart is. And we requested for help and so they agreed. They usually gave us entry to the Humanitarian Heart to maneuver individuals to, which is essential as a result of for those who’re transferring individuals nation to nation with out a visa, they’ll’t simply go into open inhabitants. It’s a must to go right into a humanitarian heart. So we had entry to that, which is a key, key aspect to the evacuations.
And moreover, they gave us entry to their C-17 planes with pilots. Glenn Beck, who’s a longtime pal of mine and supporter of Mighty Oaks Basis, began elevating cash for flights and to have the ability to fly individuals out, however didn’t actually have a system to fly individuals out. So he contacted me and once more, one other one in all these divine type of connections the place he’s like, “We’ve got the flexibility to get individuals out, however we’re struggling to get flights. He has flights, however don’t have the flexibility to get individuals out.” So we merged with Mercury Every body these wonderful individuals got here collectively and it simply occurred so rapidly.

And I’ll let you know that first 10 days on the H Kaia Airport, as Kabul was falling, the evacuation of individuals, it was all such a blur. It was very laborious to even wrap your head round what was taking place, as a result of everybody, for those who stopped and slept for 10 minutes, you felt such as you had been buying and selling that for somebody’s life. And so nobody stopped, nobody slept. Everybody simply pushed by means of for 10 days straight. We didn’t know the way a lot time we had; it simply so occurred to finish up being 10 days. And when the mud settled, that’s once we realized we had really rescued about 12,500 individuals at the moment.
However because the U.S. army was withdrawing and shutting down the airport, we knew we couldn’t depart. We knew there was 1000’s of Individuals nonetheless there. The information was saying there was 100, the White Home was saying there was 100. We knew that was not true. And by the way in which, it didn’t matter if there was a thousand or 100, we don’t depart one American behind. And our interpreters, we knew there have been tens of 1000’s of interpreters and their households there. We simply knew an excessive amount of to depart. We couldn’t depart. And so we selected to remain and thru a coordinated effort with different nonprofits, we saved main these efforts and obtained one other 5,000 individuals out, totaling 17,000.
We had additionally seen because the flights dry up the hassle, push to individuals with fleeing Kabul in a spot referred to as the Panjshir Valley, the place individuals wished to evacuate and flee the Tajikistan border to flee, however they didn’t know learn how to escape since you obtained mountains, treacherous mountains, and Taliban, and the Panjshir River, which is ice soften, class 5 rapids, river, and guarded by the Taliban, and Chinese language army was there. The Russian army was there. So that they didn’t have any info learn how to cross and learn how to go.
So we made the choice to ship a two-man group, myself and one different group member named Dennis. And we went into the Tajikistan and went to the Panjshir River, crossed over in Afghanistan and constructed routes to offer that info out, so individuals may have the data they wanted to securely evacuate. And so, this all occurred in very brief time period and so many wonderful individuals had been concerned and it was only a miraculous factor.
And it’s a tragedy, it’s a tragedy the place we’re at present, the place they nonetheless have, based on the State Division. In a July 18 report, the State Division stated that we nonetheless have 74,000 of our interpreters in Afghanistan. … And for those who add their relations, which common 4.5 relations, we’re speaking 330,000 households of our interpreters that fought alongside of us for 20 years, which can be at risk and left there. And the State Division’s transferring them out [at] 200 per week. And in the event that they keep on that plan, they’ll efficiently get all of our individuals out in 140 years.
So it’s a horrible system. They’d no plan to securely evacuate everybody. And there’s no telling what number of Individuals are nonetheless there. We’ll by no means know. And this anniversary is a cheerful second as a result of I’m sitting right here subsequent to my pal Aziz. So it’s a cheerful second in that he’s lastly protected in America. However it’s additionally a tragic second to know that this didn’t need to occur. Our interpreters didn’t need to be left behind, our Americans didn’t need to be left behind. And the world is just not a protected place at present due to the choice that was made to evacuate Afghanistan.
There was completely no motive for us to show over Afghanistan and Bagram Air Base, probably the most strategic location on this planet that sits between Iraq, Iran, Russia, and China, to show it over to the Taliban, the world’s largest terrorist regime, a most harmful terrorist regime. There was no motive to do this. We had 2,500 troops on the bottom there. At one level 2,500; on the time we evacuated, we had 4,000 troops. We nonetheless have 80,000 in Japan and 40,000 in Germany and 35,000 in South Korea. …
We didn’t have to depart. The president’s advisers suggested towards it and so they determined to do it anyway. It was a disaster. Many 1000’s of lives are misplaced. Who is aware of how many individuals’s lives are being misplaced now? Girls’s rights in Afghanistan are gone. They’re dwelling as, 20 million ladies are intercourse slaves in Afghanistan proper now due to it. And the world is a a lot, way more harmful place.
And the tragedy continues. That’s the place we’re not even transferring our interpreters which were evacuated. We nonetheless have 1000’s in locations like Abu Dhabi proper now that the State Division won’t transfer. And it’s only a tragedy, Samantha.
Renck: It truly is. And I wished to speak a bit of bit extra in regards to the 74,000 quantity that you just introduced up. What are the results for these allies, in the event that they had been to get caught by the Taliban? I imply, what penalties are they dealing with doubtlessly?
Robichaux: Properly, I can let Aziz converse extra to it. However to me, these individuals, that is the enemy of the Taliban. These are the folks that fought alongside of us for 20 years towards the Taliban. That is their enemy. They’re going to, and so they have already, they’re going to torture them. They’re going to kill them, probably torture them in entrance of their households, kill their households, enslave their ladies, their wives,and daughters. And there’s no repercussions to it.
We gave—I imply the USA of America gave—Afghanistan to the enemy with out session, by the way in which, of the Afghan authorities, with out session of the worldwide neighborhood that was utilizing Bagram Air Base as a world hub to defeat terrorism, we gave all of that to the Taliban. So that they have full authority to prosecute and persecute their enemies, which is our interpreters. They usually’re nonetheless there, 74,000 of them, over 300,000 contemplating their households in Afghanistan. Weak and being hunted down. The final we all know being hunted down by the Taliban.
And it simply troubles my soul to know what has occurred to those individuals who, like Aziz—Aziz is an instance of somebody who fought alongside of us, bravely saved my life, saved U.S. service members’ lives. These are the folks that we handed over to the enemy.
Renck: Aziz, do you’ve something that you just wished so as to add?
Aziz: Clearly, as Chad talked about, the Taliban are a bunch of individuals which can be ignorant, uneducated. From the childhood, they’re skilled in Pakistani … they’re given an ideology to kill anybody who doesn’t have a beard, who doesn’t have a turban or a beard is an infidel for them. Anybody who labored for the USA authorities or the ex-Afghan authorities, they’re infidels. For them, killing us and the opposite interpreters or the contractors or the ex-Afghan officer [and] troopers is like, it’s giving them the concept they’ll … go to the paradise. They suppose that by killing of all of us, they’ll get the possibility to go to paradise.
So what ought to we count on from such a bunch, such a terrorist group, that each one they did was within the final 20 years, and even earlier than that, they blew up individuals. They put bombs on their selves and simply [were] killing, bloodbath. They didn’t have mercy on kids. They didn’t have mercy on ladies. They didn’t have mercy on the kids that had been born within the hospital. I imply, there’s not such a factor that offers legitimacy to Taliban to have our personal Afghanistan.

Renck: Now, Aziz and Chad, I simply have two remaining questions for you. Before everything, do you’ve a message for President Biden one yr after the Taliban takeover?
Robichaux: Properly, I may sit right here and level out all of the errors that he’s made and [his] administration has made to create this example. However the one factor that I might encourage the president to do, if I used to be given an viewers with him at present, can be to do the proper factor and speed up the method to get our interpreters safely out of Afghanistan, out of the humanitarian facilities around the globe and to the USA. These are individuals … which can be in SIV [Special Immigrant Visa] processes. We all know who they’re, they’re contracted to the army. We made an obligation or promise to them that there can be a nine-month course of to get them out.
And in the meantime, now we have our southern border, 10,000 folks that we don’t know who they’re, crossing the southern border each day freely with open arms. Why can’t we in a single week, in a single week resolve this drawback and do the proper factor? It impacts our status around the globe. How may we ever belief a nation of individuals to lock arms and combat for us in another future warfare on this planet once we proceed to desert our allies?
So I might encourage [Biden] in that. I might additionally encourage him in the truth that the Taliban is just not a authorities. They’re not somebody to be trusted. We just lately have seen this with [al-Qaeda leader Ayman] al-Zawahri … strolling round free in Kabul simply weeks in the past, violating the Doha Settlement—which is a ridiculous settlement, to have an settlement with terrorists to not help terrorism. However the Doha Settlement must be simply scrapped. I imply, we can not belief these individuals. This can be a terrorist protected haven, and it must be handled as such for the sake of the American individuals and for the sake of safety around the globe.
Aziz: On my half, really, it’s an ethical obligation for the USA authorities to avoid wasting and convey all these guys that served beneath the USA contract, both instantly or not directly in Afghanistan for 20 years or greater than that. And because of that, they misplaced their home, their associates, they misplaced all the pieces. A few of them are in Pakistan, their future is just not clear. A few of them are in Albania, their future is just not clear. A few of them are in Abu Dhabi, in Tajikistan, and another neighboring nations like India and Iran.
So it’s an excellent time that I’m asking the USA authorities that they need to as a authorities … obtain their ethical obligation in the direction of all these folks that served with their army and authorities individuals, shoulder to shoulder in Afghanistan.
Renck: And eventually, are you able to discuss the way forward for Afghanistan? What occurs subsequent? A yr after the nation fell to the Taliban, what lies forward?
Robichaux: Not solely is a protected haven for terrorism, it’s the most strategic location on the map. I imply, Afghanistan sits between Iraq, Iran, Russia, China, and it has Bagram Air Base. They’ve entry to billions of {dollars}, rumored to be as much as $85 billion in U.S. tools and know-how. We’d assume it’s being offered to the Pakistanis, to Iranians, to the Chinese language, possibly to Russia, whoever’s the very best bidder. And we all know that Chinese language army has been occupying Bagram Air Base. China and Iran [are] in a position to commerce sanctioned oil throughout Afghanistan, which is what they wished all alongside. China has the mineral rights to the Hindu Kush minerals like lithium. … That is full catastrophe on this space.
So the way forward for Afghanistan is a helpful situation to all of our enemies. After I say all the enemies, to not simply the USA, however to the free world. And that’s simply from a safety standpoint.
The way forward for Afghanistan, nonetheless, on a extra private stage to the Afghan individuals. is a darkish, darkish place. Forty million Afghans have simply develop into slaves to the Taliban and their evil ideology that Aziz talked about. Twenty million ladies and little ladies are going to be sexually enslaved; no extra training in faculties, no extra ladies’s rights. They’re going to be offered off. We all know for a reality they’re already being offered off for as little as $400, 9-year-old ladies [sold] to 50-year-old males. Utterly disgusting.
And whereas the world for the previous few years, screamed about “Me Too” actions in Hollywood and issues like this, the world has been silent on these 20 million ladies. And my coronary heart bleeds and breaks for them each day, seeing how pleased they had been about to go to highschool and about to pursue careers and work in authorities and have a voice and be journalists and medical doctors and all these items. All that’s gone.
And it looks like the world simply doesn’t care and is silent about it as a result of they’re nervous in regards to the stress coming from censorship and these items. The way forward for Afghanistan is darkish. The world is a way more harmful place due to the choices that we made within the exit of Afghanistan. I don’t know, Samantha, the way it’s rotated with the present administration.
Aziz: Yeah, actually, it’s really … it can have a darkish future. It’s a spot the place the unconventional vacationer teams are reemerging. There was information that some Uzbeks, they’re coming, crossing the border and coming to Badakhshan Province close to China. There are some radical individuals from China, from Uzbekistan and Pakistan and Tajikistan; they made a radical group and they’re reemerging over there. Al-Qaeda is over there.
The women are oppressed. There is no such thing as a training for the women. Basically, it can have a very dangerous, detrimental influence on the entire world if the world doesn’t listen as fast as attainable to Afghanistan. As a result of proper now the management of the nation is within the arms of such an ignorant individuals; they solely suppose that they’re the pure and blessed kids of God, [and] the remainder of the world is infidel for them.
Renck: Chad and Aziz, thanks a lot for taking the time to talk with me at present in regards to the one yr anniversary of Afghanistan falling to the Taliban. I so admire your approaching and Aziz, telling your story, Chad, going over the evacuation efforts and the logistics of it.
Robichaux: Samantha, another factor earlier than we go: Aziz is now a proud Texan. We’re right here in [The Woodlands, Texas]—
Renck: Wonderful.
Robichaux: And Jan. 17, we’ll be releasing the ebook by means of Thomas Nelson/HarperCollins, “Saving Aziz,” which is the story of the withdrawal, Aziz and I’s lengthy historical past, and answering among the questions extra in depth than we talked about at present.

We have just posted Word Search Pop Aisles Answers. Word Search Pop is a very popular game ranked #18 on the Appstore which is developed by Hi Studio Limited. In this game all you need to do is find the hidden words in the table based on the hint given for each level. The hint sometimes appears twice but they have different answers.
Do you realize how special you are to God? He has designed you in a unique fashion. You are His creation which He signed with His own hand. He developed you into a usable vessel. He drew you away from the world. He called you forth to follow His lead. He caused you to move in the direction of His light. He continues to extend your understanding. He made you into someone who is profitable to Him. He put a lot of time and effort into creating you. There are no two snowflakes exactly alike and the same God who created each one of them created you. There is none other like you. You are special to God!
Do you have any idea how much God loves you? He loves you with a steadfast love. Nothing can shake His love for you. It is firmly in place, constant, immovable. His love is generous. He desires to give you the best according to His riches in glory. His love is reliable, faithful and sure. No one else can love you the way God does. He knows all of your deepest, darkest, nastiest secrets; yet, His devotion is immeasurable toward you. There is nothing strong enough to break His love for you. He gives you strength through His love. He involves Himself in your life because of His great love for you. He will never leave you alone nor will He forsake you in your darkest hour. His love goes beyond obligation to mercy, grace, and commitment. God loves you more than any of His other creations!
Do you perceive the extent of God's love for you? His love for you is everlasting It extends from the most distant past into the infinite future. It will not give out when you lean in real hard. His love will never cease, never fail, never become void. There are no pauses, no time outs, no glitches in God's love for you. He never takes a coffee break. He never goes on hold. He never rests from His love for you. His love for you never changes. It is the same yesterday, today, and forever. God will never change His mind about His love for you. He will not cast you aside, He will not lose you, nor will He disown you. You are special to God and His love for you is everlasting.
Do you realize that God loves you enough to correct you when you do wrong in His sight? The times when you feel that He has left you and all your best laid plans have failed, He is loving you the most. Just as a loving father punishes his son to keep him from things that could harm him, so your heavenly Father disciplines you. There are places He will not permit you to go, plans He will stop you from fulfilling to protect you from the consequences that you cannot foretell. He knows the effects of everything you desire to do and because of His great love for you He will keep you from those things which could destroy you.
There are many things we don't understand, many disappointments, heartaches, and loses we must suffer in this life. The One, who told us that we could go to the Father and ask anything we want, did not receive the answer He wanted in the garden. God loved His Son and knew what was best for Him and for all of us. It must have been the most difficult answer that God ever had to give, but He said no to Jesus that day so He could call you His child today. Remember that God loves His children and when He comes down on you with some form of punishment He is treating you as His child.
Hebrews 12:5-7 -- And you have forgotten that word of encouragement that addresses you as sons: My son, do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those He loves, and He punishes everyone He accepts as a son. Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. (NIV).
Do you need proof of that love? God is holy, pure, and just. He hates sin. Therefore, He cannot allow sin into His presence Sin must be punished. So He devised a plan not to simply overlook sin or to cover it up, but to wash it away, to cleanse it from the hearts of man. Before the foundation of the earth, yes, even before the fall of man, God determined to send Jesus Christ, His Own Son into the world to redeem mankind. Why did He go to such an extreme to sacrifice His Only Son for your sins? It was the only way to reconcile you to Himself. His love for you is so great that he willingly took the punishment for you. God desired to make it as simple as possible for you to come to him. All you have to do is believe in Jesus Christ (John 3:16).
He will never leave you (Hebrew 13:5) He will send His Holy Spirit to dwell in you (John 14:16), to comfort, strengthen, and guide you. The Holy Spirit will give you the desire to learn about God's ways. He will teach you His precepts (John 14:26). The He will enable you to be obedient (Philippians 2:13).
My father grew up as an only child of second-generation German immigrants, a rigid upbringing. In his early twenties, he married his high school sweetheart from a neighboring farm. I was the first of five children.
Dad expected his children to excel at school and whatever else they did. As the oldest, I worked hard to meet his expectations.
In this era, fathers did not hug or kiss their children. Praise was sparse because it might “go to their heads and make them proud.”
I remember a few occasions when we did things together. Dad would carefully mark rows in the garden early each spring when the ground was still cold and damp. My brother and I would follow him as he planted the first long rows of peas. I also remember planting spruce seedlings with him as part of a conservation project.
A few times I fished with Dad and my younger brother in Dad’s old wooden boat. When the lake was high, huge sunfish hid around the roots of up-ended willow trees.
How I longed for Dad to say, “I love you” and give me a hug, but it never happened. Did he approve of me? It was difficult to tell in my teenage years.
I grew up, graduated from the university, and eventually married. Unfortunately, my husband and I often lived hundreds of miles away from my family, and at times our work took us overseas. Mom wrote weekly, telling of events back home, what my dad was doing, and news of my siblings. But Dad never wrote. He left that up to Mom.
When we came home to the farm, our visits were cordial, but Dad and I were never close like some fathers and daughters.
In 1986, it was time to say good-bye for another of our overseas assignments. My husband, two children and I, stood with Mom and Dad, our arms around each other. My husband prayed for God to watch over all us while we were apart.
“I love you too,” he said and I noticed him brushing a tear from his eyes. How I wished we had been closer over the years.
My parents were in their early sixties, so I expected to have many more times together in the future. We’d be back from our work in Australia in four years.
Then two and a half years later, a life-shattering call came from home. That Sunday afternoon, Dad had been snowmobiling around the edge of the farm property, visiting neighbors. When he failed to return home, my brother-in-law searched for him and found him in the snow, dead of a massive heart attack.
Friends urged me to go home to Minnesota for the funeral. “You’re not doing this for your father,” they said. “You’re doing this for yourself.” How true it proved to be.
At the funeral, people had wonderful stories of Dad, a man of integrity with a quiet faith, Their stories were fresh; recent. They knew him so well. Even my youngest brother, twenty years younger than I, had related to Dad in a different way from me—as a friend.
Dad, how I wish I had really known you! I screamed inwardly. It was like a song without an ending, a book with the last pages torn out.
After the funeral, all of us five adult children came back to the farm and sifted through the treasures we had left behind in the attic of the family farmhouse. I was going through a box of my memorabilia when I came across a small canvas bag. Inside the bag were drawings I had done, old letters, and photos. In the midst, I discovered two letters from my dad written years back when I was finishing university—the only personal thing I had in his handwriting. How could I have forgotten that they existed?
I carefully pulled out the yellowing paper. The first one was about things on the farm. The second was about an honor society I had been elected to at the university.
When I read the first paragraph of the second letter, my eyes welled with tears, for he had written, “How proud I am to have a daughter like

In press regulation, the many may be penalised for the sins of the few, says Trevor Barnes
YOU do not have to be a professor of mass communication and media studies to know the difference in newspaper terms between what is in the public interest, and what interests the public. Probably most of us have flicked surreptitiously through to page five of, let us say, the Daily Mail, to get more details on that celebrity story trailed tantalisingly in 36-point bold type on its front page. Editors know this. And we (or most of us) fall for it every time.
Knowing, too, that their job is to inform and entertain, Fleet Street's finest provide their readers with a mix of the important and the merely interesting, which, for reasons best known to themselves, some people, somewhere, would rather you did not read.
Despite its many excesses in this regard, however, the British press has a solid record as a responsible force for holding wrongdoers to account. Let us not forget, for example, that, for all its faults, the News of the World was once feared by hypocritical politicians and corrupt businessmen, who doubtless sleep a little easier now that the paper is no more.
What did for the News of the World was not illegal behaviour in itself. After all, an investigative journalist must, on occasions, use "ratlike cunning and a plausible manner" (Nicholas Tomalin) to obtain information not willingly disclosed by someone suspected of malfeasance. No, what banged it to rights was the routine use of indiscriminate phone-tapping in the pursuit of conveyor-belt stories, one of which, far from interesting the public, revolted it.
Compare and contrast with the parliamentary expenses scandal. What came to light did so after the (equally illegal) theft from the House of Commons of an uncensored CD, on which were inscribed the details of every MP's claim for everything from household groceries to mortgages. Rather than face charges of receiving stolen goods, The Daily Telegraph claimed a clear public interest, and was rightly praised to the rafters.
The point - a simple one, but overlooked in the current blizzard of self-righteousness - is that phone-hacking is against the law. Paying police officers and public officials for information (bribing, to you and me) is, likewise, a criminal offence. Those who do not have an alibi can expect fines, or a period of enforced idleness at Her Majesty's pleasure, while those who do may expect the plaudits of a grateful nation.
Before framing unnecessary new legislation to restrict press freedom, it is to be hoped that Lord Justice Leveson will, in his forthcoming report, be suitably troubled by the case this week of Kostas Vaxevanis, the Greek magazine editor who faces two years in prison for publishing the names of more than 2000 individuals who are alleged to be avoiding tax through an elaborate network of undisclosed Swiss bank accounts.
At a time of unprecedented austerity, the Greek public may rightly expect the rich and powerful to share some of the country's pain, or, at the very least, to be transparent in their financial affairs. Instead - and with the connivance of the Greek Ministry of Finance, which has had the names for more than a year without taking action - Mr Vaxevanis has been accused of violating the country's privacy laws, and faces a prison sentence.
In the days of the Cold War, we shuddered at the thought of newspapers under state control, and were heartened only by the knowledge that it could never happen here. True, it has not happened yet, but it is a timely moment for all of us to ask exactly whose interests would be served by more government interference into the workings of the Fourth Estate.

So, this is going to be a fast and furious post. That’s what I always say and it ends up being a novel. Ha! Anyway, I didn’t succeed in my Wednesday/Lensday post tonight. Just missed it and it is now Thursday, but I guess that is ok. I need a break from the norm every now and then.
So, I wanted to show a pic of my friend Dana, the Bachelorette (not to be confused with Trista or Diana or anyone of those reality show fembots). We had, as I previously mentioned in my earlier posts this week, a great time in Louisville filled with lots of hijinks! Bachelorette parties are one of those times where you just whoop it up! I wanted to express that sentiment in a frame for my friend that I concocted on the fly from a basic frame with a matte. It was so quick and easy. You just take out the matte board, get the other bachelorette party ladies to kiss and sign, write a fun phrase, decorate, and flip it back into the frame and voila…an instant keepsake! Of course, a pic of all of us from the night…one like this cute one, will go in there to be a memory of our wild and crazy time!
We really did have a fun time. These are all of the great girlfriends I made through Tasha (the one in the middle). Tasha used to work with me. She just got a new job with an established non-profit in the area and her career path in marketing is looking bright, so yay Chica (that’s our term of endearment for each other). I will be sad; however, that I don’t get the Panera perks (the job she is leaving, where she was a main manager).
Oh, and here’s a photo I took of Tasha that I thought was moody and made her look exceptionally beautiful. She doesn’t even have to try!
Well, off to bed. I’m so excited. I have off tomorrow. I think I’m going to organize my craft stuff and do some chores. I’m sure since this will pretty much consume me, a post will follow.

Angel Stamper 2: Halloween Themed Angel Art Challenge
Halloween Themed Angel Art Challenge
Labels: Blog Hop, Scor-pal, Tutorial - Woven Basket
Welcome to the "Halloween Themed Angel Art Challenge"!
This morning, several TAC Angels will be posting halloween projects made with TAC products. You'll find more links at the end of this post - be sure to check them all out!
Mine is a nice little woven Halloween treat basket that is great for candy!
I put a couple tissues in the bottom of my basket, then placed suckers on top. I think these baskets would also hold peppermint patties too! The opening is 2 1/4" square and the basket is 4 1/4" tall so that gives you an idea of what you could put in it.
All supplies are available through
Orange cardstock:
(5) 1/2" x 9 3/4" scored at 2 1/4", 4 1/2", 6 3/4", and 9". Fold on score lines and glue 3/4" tab to make a square.
(1) 1" x 9 3/4" scored at 2 1/4", 4 1/2", 6 3/4", and 9". Fold and glue, same as above.
(4) 1" x 12" scored at 5" and 7 1/4"
(3) 1" x 12"
(1) 3/8" x 12"
Pumpkin Day stamp set
Two Polo Button Brads
Coluzzle Cutting System with Nested Circles Template
1. Sponge Palette Noir ink around the edges of all orange cardstock strip squares.
2. Attach the four 1" x 12" orange strips together as shown in the diagram. The strips will all be inside the score lines so the strips can be folded upright.
3. Start with the 1" wide square and place it down over the upright strips alternating one strip inside the square and the next strip outside the square going all the way around the basket. Push the square all the way down to the bottom.
4. Now do the same with the five 1/2" wide squares. If a strip was on the inside of the 1" square, it will be on the outside of this square and so forth. Push each square down to rest on the prior square.
5. When you get those five squares on, trim the tops of the strips so they are even all the way around.
6. Adhere a black strip around the top on the outside of the basket, slightly overlapping the ends and trimming off the excess.
7. Adhere the thin green strip over that, overlapping the ends and trimming off the excess.
8. Add another black strip as the handle, using a brad to attach each end. Depending on how long you want your handle, you may not use the entire 12" length. Trim as needed.
9. Adhere the final black strip around the inside of the basket at the top. This covers the brads as well as the orange strip ends. Overlap the ends of the black strip, trimming off the excess.
10. Decorate and embellish your basket as desired.
Okay, now here are some other GREAT Halloween Themed projects made with products by The Angel Company. I hope you'll check them out!
Posted by Vicki Hook at Monday, October 27, 2008

dollyandmolly | SHOPenauer
Dollyandmolly, womenswear brand based in Tokyo.
DOLLYANDMOLLY is a womenswear brand born in 2009 based in Tokyo.
From its name, dolly and molly depicts both two different beings and diverse selves within one. Though facing affray and friction evermore, there is always been a way to coexistence.
Perceiving of opposites as its ground, the team aims to distort existing idee fixe; stereotypes, something that are fixed, conventional or habitual. It is plugged with spirit of punk and youth culture; anti-social, deconstructive and rebellious souls seeking for break-through in complex and unstable reality we are living in. From perspective of design, it does not have to be luxurious and beautiful all the time. It does not have to make sense all the time. It is for those who bear endemic character of one's life and style. It is for those who speak out, perceiving fashion as another method of expression toward the world, to find a way. To replace in every possible sense, the team started by doubting things around us, from even the common ones, and approached with new perspective. Faux fur and artificial leather replaced original materials for products that were considered as luxury, such as fur/shearing coats and biker jackets. Combination of fabrics and items were made to create outfit through deconstruction and modification. Closing of the garments was turned around and following that of menswear.
Street-forwarded products were born through distortion of prescriptive products and its ideas. Such attempts were done to suggest alternatives and to overturn conventional thoughts from the inside. For colors, black and white is the base. Intensive red, as an accent, and as a emblematic color of the brand, was used to illustrate rebellious and decadent elegance that brand carries along with messages toward the outside world.

c# - Something wrong while passing property from one class to the other - Stack Overflow
I am having 3 classes. One is AuthenticateUser which let me to set and get user information such as username and password. In other class, AddEntryWindow is a WinForm in which I am trying to display content of the Password and UserName properties from AuthenticateUser. third class is another WinForm class which let me to set username and password to the AuthenticateUser class. As I try, in this simplified example, to display username and password from a WinForm class I am getting a blank message box. Also, when using another message box in AuthenticateUserWindow I am able to get the content of properties.
How can I fix this to be able to view content of the property in AddEntryWindow class? I have been staring blank for past hour on this.
Probably it's something with line: AuthenticateUser authenticateUser = new AuthenticateUser(); which create a new object. But where would it go instead?
Most likely problem in AddEntryWindow.cs
AuthenticateUser authenticateUser = new AuthenticateUser();
MessageBox.Show(authenticateUser.UserName + authenticateUser.Password);
AuthenticateUser.cs
AuthenticateUserWindow.cs
// Most important log in information needs to be entered
// for encrypting and decrypting binary file.
AuthenticateUser authenticateUser;
// Closing Authentication Window form.
// Clearing text boxes txtUserName and txtPassword
// after Clear Form button is clicked.
// Passing the values to object AuthenticateUser.
authenticateUser = new AuthenticateUser(txtUserName.Text, txtPassword.Text);
c# winforms class properties share|improve this question edited Nov 4 '11 at 2:18
Every time you create an instance of a class, all its instance variables do get allocated freshly. Hope your aware of this?? In your case, your created a fresh object but your not setting its properties some value. So with out doing so, if your printing it obviously u sure to get empty or none.
@zenwalker: I know what you mean. But for example if I use AuthenticateUser authenticateUser; in AddEntryWindow then I am getting error saying 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' I just don't know how to avoid this.
Because those ref types are null by default. You need to set a value for it first!
Yes, I am in AuthorizationWindow class.
Nov 4 '11 at 3:53
Like John said, you need to change the code as follows:
new AuthenticationWindow(authenticateUser).ShowDialog();
public AuthenticationWindow(AuthenticateUser user)
authenticateUser = user;
authenticateUser.UserName = txtUserName.Text;
authenticateUser.Password = txtPassword.Text;
I just cant figure this out. I have everything working fine except that I cant access those properties. I was trying to use your code and did everything line by line, but I just can't make it work :(
@HelpNeeder can you provide an example of your code based on what Veldmuis and I said to try?
@John: No, I can not because I have solved this problem rather differently.
You are creating two separate instances of AuthenticateUser, one in AddEntryWindow and one in AuthenticationWindow. Just because they have the same name doesn't mean they are in the same scope.
Without knowing how your program works I can't give you the best option, but one would be to create a static class that acts as a global for AuthenticateUser. Another option would be to figure out how to pass the information between your Forms. If you create the AuthenticationWindow from the AddEntryWindow you could set an instance of AuthenticateUser as public in AuthenticationWindow and then access it when the window closes before you dispose of it.
Here i could infer a bit of workaround for your question, i do hope it is what your looking for. If your invoking or launching AddWindowEntry form from AuthenticationWindow assuming that AuthenticationWindow is the parent form, then you have created AuthenticateUser object in this class. Pass this instance to the child form i.e AddWindowEntry and set to a local variable there. So when btnAddEntry_Click event gets executed, then you can display this local variables content in the message box.

In the play, Othello, who is Brabantio and why do Iago and Roderigo awaken him in the middle of the night ? - eNotes.com
Brabantio is a Venetian senator and Desdemona's father. He is quite protective of her and has kept her from many suitors including Roderigo, who he has forbidden to ever visit his home again. Desdemona has fallen in love with Othello and has eloped with him.
Iago and Roderigo come to rouse Brabantio in the dead of night to inform him that Othello has abducted his daughter against her will and is abusing her at the very moment that they are talking to him. Their purpose is to demonize Othello so that Brabantio may use his authority to have Othello dismissed from his post as general and have him incarcerated.
The reason for this vindictive and pernicious lie is that firstly, Iago is jealous of Othello's position since he has been appointed general of the Venetian army even though he is a foreigner and a Moor. Secondly, Iago has been loyal to Othello and has applied to be his lieutenant but Othello chose to appoint a Florentine, Michael Cassio, in the position. Iago resents this appointment since he believes that Michael has only book knowledge and lacks experience in battle, whilst he, Iago, possesses the right qualities for the post.
In his attempts to obtain the position, Iago had also acquired the recommendations of three senators but these were ignored by Othello. Iago had promised that he would continue feigning loyalty to the general so that he may serve his turn upon him.
Roderigo, who is besotted with Desdemona, is assisting Iago in his devious scheme in the hope of obtaining some advantage in his desire to woo her. Iago has promised that he would ensure Roderigo's success in this endeavor. The gullible Roderigo has now become putty in Iago's manipulative paws and pleases the malevolent schemer's every whim.
On their way to Brabantio's home, Iago instructs Roderigo:
He obviously wishes to spoil both Brabantio's sleep and mar Othello's joy. He uses Roderigo to do his despicable work. Once Brabantio has been awoken, they will give him the frightful news about his daughter's kidnap. After Brabantio has heard their truly gross account of Othello's so-called crime, he is extremely upset, and passionately cries out:
As soon as Iago knows that Brabantio is convinced and has taken action, he takes his leave, unashamedly telling Roderigo that he should be seen as being in support of Othello in this matter so that suspicion does not fall upon him. Furthermore, he would be able to gain Othello's trust, thus giving him the opportunity to manipulate the unsuspecting general even more. Roderigo remains behind to provide Brabantio with more detail about Othello's supposed crime and where he can be found.
The two plotters are successful in their attempt to raise Brabantio's ire but fail to have the Moor punished since Desdemona later stands up for him and he is absolved of all guilt. Othello is then requested to leave for Cyprus where he has to fight off a possible invasion by the Turks.

Except… it all just seemed so damn familiar. My story was about a young girl with special, hidden powers who enters a new world and falls in love. Except… it all gets complicated when she falls in love with a second guy, and not only that, she has to save the world! And did I mention she’s secretly from a royal family and is also a half-mythical creature? I think I pretty much covered all the bases there!
Many thanks to this tumblr post for giving me the earth-shattering realisation that my paranormal romance was a YA fantasy novel:
Posted in Writing RulesTagged authors, fantasy, movies, novel, self-publishing, starwars, Writing, writingtips, youngadult
I always write mine by ‘accident’. I’m like, this will just be a short story, next minute it’s turned into a novella, then a novel – yet it’s not something I could ever publish LOL.
Helpful checklist! I’m glad to say that my recently-finished YA novel hits a few of those points, but not all of them. But then, it started off as a sci-fi/fantasy web series (genrewars.tv) and has evolved into a new medium. And thank you for liking my blog post about my novel (the one I’m crowdfundng on Inkshares)! I hope this means you’ll check it out! 🙂
Hi Robin, thanks for commenting back in 2016! My new years resolution is to reply to everyone lol. How exciting about your YA novel, I wonder what you’re up to now 1.5 years later?
Happy New Year! Thanks for replying. 🙂 I wound up fundraising through Indiegogo instead of Inkshares; turns out that platform is much better for authors who already have an extensive following. Still, the book is now available on Amazon (http://amzn.to/2GUZSMO) and I’m touring the book now (or trying to!). I had a booth at MAG Fest in Washington, DC back in January and sold over 20 copies of my book, about which I was *very* happy! Otherwise, I’m trying to figure out what project comes next!
Fun post. Yes, we all fall into genre guidelines. But people love them and despite the similarities, the characters, settings, and plot choices we make can lead to a truly unique story. You give some great examples. Happy writing!
snark of the month (but also truth of the month!) goes to this article 😀 It’s funny how the same formula can lead to some of the best stories out there (Harry Potter, anyone?) but also to some of the worst (I’ll keep examples to myself lol)
Thank you!!! 🙂 I was almost surprised (shouldn’t have been) at how many stories you can squeeze to fit the formula. I wonder which ones you think are the ‘worst’!! hahaha. I’m sure I could have searched harder and found some atrocious examples, but decided to only add ones that I find entertaining 🙂 (and yes, I even love twilight’s sappy goodness)
Nailed it. This is absolutely the roadmap for 90% of YA fantasy novels. I suppose Patrick Ness already sort of did this with The Rest of Us Just Live Here, but I wonder what the complete opposite of this list would look like.
Old man of color does not have a hidden power. Both of his parents are alive and well, and he has many siblings. He remains in his own world and does not fall in love (because he’s content with his uncomplicated marriage.) He does not have to save the world, but he does anyway (with no special powers). When he’s done conquering the bad guy (who is definitely the bad guy), he kicks it on the porch over a couple of beers with his very-alive dad.
I just looked up Patrick Ness, that novel looks awesome! I’ll have to read it. It’s funny that you wrote down the opposite, I was going to end my post with that, but then it got so boring I stopped! haha It started like this: A hermaphrodite child of mixed ethnicity with two very loving and very much alive parents, lived with his/her six siblings in a land far far away… 😉
Steven Spielberg's first 'mature' film, adapted from the Pulitzer Prize winning novel by Alice Walker tells the life story of an African-American woman during the early part of the 1900's, as she face struggles from both society and within her own family.
All the performances are absolutely fantastic and director Spielberg presents the story incredibly well, though it isn't what you would come to expect from a director whose previous films would be described as far more fun than they would be serious. Some might say that he wasn't the obvious choice to direct this film, but producer Quincy Jones is said to have insisted upon it.
The film was nominated for 11 Oscars and went away empty-handed, making it the biggest 'Oscar loser' of all time. It's unfortunate, it really deserved something, as the screenplay and cast ensemble are excellent.

Democrats push for minimum wage increase - News - WSAU News/Talk 550AM 99.9FM
hide Democrats push for minimum wage increase
Wednesday, November 27, 2013 2:20 a.m. CST
MADISON (WRN) Democrats in the Wisconsin legislature are trying to start a conversation on the minimum wage. It needs to be increased, says state Senator Nikiya Harris of Milwaukee, who notes we're not just talking about high school kids working fast food jobs. She says nearly one-quarter of minimum wage earners have family incomes of less than $20,000, nearly one-quarter have children, and almost a third are married.
Wisconsin's minimum wage was last raised in 2009 and is currently at $7.25 an hour. Harris says there's widespread public support for an increase. "What will help this conversation go more smoothly is accepting the fact that there's a public opinion that is actually in favor of raising the minimum wage," she says.
Harris says Democrats plan to introduce legislation to hike the wage again, though they haven't settled yet on what the new number should be. Any such measure would face an uphill battle in the Republican-controlled legislature.
"We are the richest country in the world. We should seriously be ashamed that millions of families are suffering in poverty," Harris says.

Some would say this is a color study. I see four women that I have known. These were painted from 2006 to 2008 and exhibited at a group show, curated by Terry Lin, at a Santa Monica Airport gallery in 2008. To date, this is the only painting to be signed on the front. All of the other Stu Coleman Paintings are signed on the back as to not distract from the the art.
This piece consists of four 11″ x 14″canvas boards attached with velcro to a painted piece of plywood and framed with white pine. the paintings can be rearranged to suit.

Amazing Laser Application 1: Light Show! – Uncertain Principles Archive
What's the application? The use of lasers to provide an entertaining light show for humans, dogs, or cats.
What problem(s) is it the solution to? 1) "How will I entertain my dog or cat?"
2) "How can we distract people from the fact that Roger Daltrey has no voice left?"
Why are lasers essential? Lasers provide coherent beams of light, which remain small over very large distances, allowing you to project a small spot or a tight beam across a room, or even a football stadium.
Why is it cool? Duuuuude! Lasers, duuuuude!
Why isn't it cool enough? 1) It's fundamentally just a toy. 2) No amount of laser light could keep the Who's halftime show from being kind of sad.
(This post is the first of twelve highlighting amazing laser applications, in honor of the 50th anniversary of the first laser. These posts serve as a lead-up to an audience poll asking what the coolest laser application is, so if you like lasers and radio buttons, watch this space over the next week or so.)

The overall stage design for the show was really well-done, I thought. The lasers added to it. And, well, laser light. Always pretty.
The stage was very well done, and the light show was good. Shame about the singing, though.
Then of course there is the original Laserium show, started in Griffith Park Planetarium in the mid-70's, sadly displaced to a warehouse in Van Nuys when the whole building was lifted up for remodeling. They still give command performances, recently however lost a venue location at Hollywood and Vine.. I only lately discovered it is actually a performance, not a recorded effects show. Uses a 8′ long 6W argon-neon (?) white laser, lots of light bench stuff, and about 30 or so specialized deflectors and prisms at stage edge. Seriously, do not gaze directly at emitter with remaining hemisphere.
You'd think a physics-savvy dog would know enough to trace the light back to its source.
"You'd think a physics-savvy dog would know enough to trace the light back to its source."
It is my experience that about 1 in 3 cats figure that out almost immediately, the rest never do.
It took my dog about 2 minutes to figure out where the light was coming from. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
And the two survivors of "The Who" knew it was sad, both singing and playing. Pete just laid down his guitar, smiled, and went out to punch the time clock.
All this time nobody's mentioned the speckles? That's what lasers are for. Showing the speckles. 😉
Good to know we weren't the only ones who weren't very impressed with the half-time show. Even *with* the wardrobe malfunction.
Silly mutt 🙂
It took my cat about two minutes to figure out where the red dot came from. Which means that now she gets really excited when she sees the laser pointer because then she knows there will soon be a red dot to chase.
Also, there's no way a silly light show can compete with the awesomeness of cats (and, fine, dogs or toddlers) chasing red (or green) dots.
"about 1 in 3 cats figure that out almost immediately"
Of course, sometimes it doesn't matter. One of our cats would find the laser pointer, poke it with her paw while looking at me pointedly, and then when I picked it up she would watch where it was aimed so she could pounce on the dot immediately. Then she would chase the dot like a crazy thing for as long as I cared to run it.
Laser shows must have been a lot better in the old days. Check out the old Fountains of Wayne song, Laser Show:
We're gonna space out to our favorite tunes
Laser and light shows were a lot better in the old days. More organic, rather than some canned digital movie. Heck, one of them even had rain along with lightning and thunder!

Implement swaptions in SimCorp Dimension - Unitso
Implement swaptions in SimCorp Dimension
6 of January 2022
👓 Recently we were working on implementation of swaptions in SimCorp Dimension, and would like to share a few important moments to take into account when you deal with such an interesting derivative.
📚 First of all, as you might already see it from the instrument's name, it's a combination of option and swap. Swaps refer to derivatives categories, though mathematically they can be represented as long & short bond positions. Unlike bonds, they have many specific details in valuation, starting from duo yield curves stripping algorithm and finishing with multiple legs inflation linked swaps (which might even have more than 2 legs). They represent a powerful instrument type for interest rate risk hedging. As it is OTC instrument – its credit risk is often a subject to clearing house processes (such swaps are called the cleared ones). In the same time, there are also bilateral swaps which might be covered by specific collateral. If all these details do not make it yet a challenge for a precise valuation – then once such instrument type is integrated with option characteristics – we get a swaption. The options world significantly differs from swaps, as they are not linear instruments, and might involve absolutely different valuation models, based on volatility curves, exercise types (e.g. American , European ,Bermudan) and strike peculiarities. As the result, a swaption experiences all kinds of key ratios including Greek ratios (i.e. characteristics of options).
Especially you have to be careful with a market exposure definition for this instrument type, as it is used for aggregation of different durations. Besides, different market regulations might define the swaption's market exposure differently for risk measurement. The challenging part here is that in Dimension swaptions are represented in a single line whereas swaps use e.g. 2 lines (i.e. dedicated to 2 legs).
🧊 Please, also notice, that SimCorp Dimension-wise the best up-to date module to handle swaptions' static and transaction data is Trade Manager. In case you still use the APL swaption module (i.e. a previous generation of Dimension solutions for static and transaction data) – then don't forget to check that APL module has a complete underlying swap module activated (for exact valuation and reporting figures).
�� Also, you might pay attention to price methods, as for example, there are some interesting ones which might even use the implied volatility in case the volatility curves are not maintained in-house, whereas the swaptions quotes/prices are imported from the external data vendors.
📧 If you still have questions regarding swaptions implementation in SimCorp Dimension – feel free to contact Unitso team, and we will be glad to assist you further.

Today's Globe has this interesting piece on how small the portion of cancer research spent on childhood illness is. A sample:
One dollar in every $30 invested in cancer research goes specifically to research on childhood and adolescent cancers, according to a new report.
In 2007, $13.2-million of the $402.4-million that was invested in cancer research in Canada was aimed at understanding the causes and improving the cancer of younger patients, the study from the Canadian Cancer Research Alliance shows
Now the fact that only 3% of cancer research focuses on childhood illnesses will surprise, and no doubt trouble, many people.
Let me first address the sensibility that spending only 3% of cancer funding on childhood and adolescent cancers is unfair. What most people don't realise is the fact that cancer is predominately a disease of aging. Like other chronic diseases (heart disease, AD, etc.), most people who die of cancer are over the age of 65. So if one wants to spend money on things that will help save more young lives then one should support tackling more prevalent risks. Look here, for example, to see what kills more young people than cancer. For every young person ages 14-24 that dies of cancer, 6 die in accidents, and 3 die from suicide.
Furthermore, the death rates for the young in Canada are very low, especially compared to the morbidity and mortality rates of the aged. This is not to suggest that we shouldn't do more to reduce early life morbidity and mortality (we should), but that any response should be proportionate to the risk. A 20 year-old smoker has a much lower risk of cancer and death than a 75 year-old active, non-smoker. Why? Because aging is the major risk factor for disease and death in Canada.
So while the intuition that it is unfair to spend so much on cancer research for the aged rather than the young misses the mark, there is a legitimate complaint to make here. Once we make explicit the point that cancer research aims, primarily, at benefiting people in late life, how much bang for the buck will it actually yield? Would we be better served investing more money in aging research rather than cancer research?
Imagine, as fantastical as it is, there was no cancer in Canada. That all 200+ types of cancer were eliminated overnight, just like that. How much longer could Canadians expect to live? 10 years? 20 years? 40 years? The answer will no doubt surprise you. If there were no cancer to kill us the *average* life expectancy would rise by about 3 years.
Why is the number so low? Because removing cancer as a cause of death will simply delay, by only a few years for most people, one of the other chronic diseases of aging. So a 75 year-old who doesn't die of cancer will probably suffer a stroke or heart attack a few years later. See this paper in Science for an overview of the estimates of the upper limits of human longevity.
Aging limits average life expectancy to around 85 years. To add real quality of life in late life we need to tackle the major cause of chronic diseases--- aging itself.
So the real problem with the current approach is that by aggressively going after each specific disease of aging, rather than the aging process itself, we pursue a sub-optimal approach to health extension. One that requires much more funding and yields smaller health dividends. Retarding aging would help delay, simultaneously, most these afflictions, thus freeing up more money to spend on improving the lives of young Canadians.
Thus everyone, young and old alike, would benefit from a more inclusive approach to medicine. To get there we need doctors and medical researchers (and politicians and the general public!) to adopt a Darwinian-based approach to health and disease.
The funding numbers for cancer research reveal that cancer research is really striving to help the aged. But the problem is it focuses only on the proximate cause, rather than the ultimate cause, of mortality. If you really want to improve the health prospects of people in late life we should search for ways to modulate the biological clocks we have inherited from our Darwinian past.

10 Sept 2004. Some universities, noting the impending boom in eligible applicants, have realized that the scales of higher education are starting to tip in favor of the students. Community colleges and online classes are exploding. Students are taking general education classes while still at home, avoiding the costs of room and board. To lure the kids back to their dorms, they are starting to offer perks that seemed unimaginable even a generation ago. Catered meals, free transportation, and extravagant student gyms complete with waterslides are some of the carrots on the end of the academic stick. But then these institutions are saddled with the responsibility to still emphasize that their school is first and foremost a place of learning, not leisure. Some schools, however, cannot be bothered to put on such high airs. You can make your own conclusion about Texas State University in San Marcos (formerly Southwest Texas State), which has a 'lazy river' running behind the Bobcats' Strahan Coliseum and through campus.
Maori tattoo designs are component on the Polynesian tradition. The Maori individuals reside in New Zealand and have a protracted background of tattooing. Most ancient Maori tattoo styles were within the face of gentlemen. Ladies were not tattooed just as much but once they ended up, their tattoos ended up usually put on the chin or lips. These days the majority of tattoos are inked about the physique, like the arm.
You may actually just like the tattoo designs but remember that it’s deemed an insult for a non-Maori individual to own a standard Maori tattoo design. Should you head over to a skilled tattoo artist, they’ll give you a tattoo that resembles the Maori layout. You’ll be able to find premium quality Maori tattoo designs on-line and decide which a single you would like your tattoo to resemble.
What’s diverse about Tatuagi Mandala designs? Most Polynesian tattoo styles adhere to a straight line pattern. Maori tattoo types are spiral in layout. Once you 1st have a look at the tattoo you will see little circles but when you maintain hunting, you can see how individuals small circles blend into larger kinds. Maori tattoos ended up painful to receive. Knives and chisels had been used to make incisions to insert the ink. A person with out a tattoo was regarded worthless.
If you are thinking about a Maori tattoo believe about the importance in the tattoo. A tattoo is your assertion on the planet. It should be personal for you however you will inform the tale when an individual asks about your tattoo. Look for a tattoo layout that will be changed to suit your persona. The most effective area to find unique tattoo designs is an online tattoo gallery.
An online tattoo gallery gives you a large number of premium quality tattoos to select from. You can get much more than one particular tattoo and mix them to have the design you want. What is actually so wonderful about membership Tatuagi Mandala galleries is always that you’ll be able to print or obtain as numerous tattoo styles when you want. As soon as you’re a member, you might have entire entry to the location. It truly is a small expenditure to produce for anything that may be along with you for life.

Turkey must make sure EU keeps promises - Turkey News
Turkey must make sure EU keeps promises
October 26 2015 00:01:00
Turkey must do what is necessary to ensure the European Union does not break its promises following recent negotiations on migrants, readmission agreements and visa liberalization, according to Economic Development Foundation (İKV) head Çiğdem Nas.
"Turkey should make sure that they are not promises that are forgotten in the process," said Nas, a specialist on Turkey-EU relations.
For those who might have missed it, can you tell us about the recent developments in EU-Turkish relations?
As a candidate country, we had a stalemate in the negotiations process. Fourteen chapters were opened, but only one of them has been closed.
Due to the Cyprus problem, none of the chapters can be provisionally closed. [German Chancellor] Angela Merkel expressed two weeks ago that she still does not support Turkey's membership. There is no political will on the part of the EU to accept Turkey as a member in the short to medium term.
We have had a sudden revitalization in the process, and this is linked to the Syrian crisis and the influx of refugees to the EU.
[There were] such influxes before, but this time, the numbers were much more substantial.
After the Russian attacks, we are now expecting even more refugees. The EU and Germany decided that this influx can only be resolved with Turkey's cooperation. However, relations between the EU and Turkey were not at its best.
A new effort had to be made; some sweeteners had to be offered to Turkey. So we have some proposals from the EU to convince Turkey of a more cooperative approach.
One is a financial package of around 3 billion euros.
It is not clear under which program these will be made available and over what period of time. So it is ambiguous.
Second, the EU promised that there would be an acceleration of the accession process. And the third promise is with regard to visa liberalization.
This is also an issue which has already been decided upon with the signing of a readmission agreement.
Will those 'sweeteners' revitalize EU relations?
I don't think it is a reliable perspective for Turkey. Looking at a pragmatic level, [one might think] that because the EU needs Turkey, the EU is ready to provide some rewards for Turkey and Turkey should seize this opportunity, regardless of what the reason or the circumstances are.
But when we look at what the EU is offering in terms of reviving the process, I don't think they are realizable goals. It seems opening talks on five or six chapters will be on the agenda; however, when Merkel was in Turkey, she talked about opening Chapter 17, which was already on the agenda. For 1.5 years, there has been talk about opening talks on Chapter 17.
We don't know how progress will be made on the other chapters; they are blocked by Greek Cyprus. So this is related to the resolution of the Cyprus conflict. Something else is needed to trigger the process.
It seems there is serious progress taking place on the talks to find a solution to the Cyprus issue. A breakthrough on Cyprus could coincide with reviving the process.
If it happens, that would be something substantial, but without [a solution on Cyprus], it is difficult for Merkel to promise there will be an acceleration.
So in the absence of a solution on Cyprus, you are not convinced that Germany or the EU will have the will or leverage on Greek Cypriots to lift their blockage.
When I heard Merkel speak, I did not feel that she would do it. I felt like there will be a process and some things will be forgotten in the process as has happened in the past. When we look at the situation in Turkey, I don't think the EU has the will to accelerate the accession process.
At the moment, we are waiting for the elections and a new government may be more willing [on EU accession]. But with the ending of the talks with the Kurds and the restart of terrorism, Turkey's stance against the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, freedom of expression and fundamental freedoms are not in accord with the EU's approach. I don't think the EU is sincere because they do not see Turkey at the moment as being in line with EU criteria.
We never expect the EU to be sincere anyway.
Indeed, it is interest-based. Obviously, we don't know what is happening in the deals behind closed doors. But looking at the history of relations, in 1999 for example, when Turkey was given candidacy status, there was a letter written by the then-Finnish president – it was a move to suggest that the Cyprus issue would not be a problem and that without a resolution, Cyprus would not be accepted. But the contrary happened, and nobody is now talking about the letter. What is being talked about at the moment will not take place as has been reflected in the media. Merkel talks about Chapter 17, but this is not something new. I don't find it convincing.
How about visa liberalization?
Again, what is being talked about is not something new. Turkey has already promised to the EU that once the readmission agreement enters into force, it would accept migrants going to Europe if it is proven that they passed through Turkish territory [in exchange for visa-free travel]. The EU felt the urge to accelerate this process instead of waiting until 2017.
But there is also a document – a visa liberalization road map which includes 72 criteria that Turkey has to fulfill in order for Turkey to qualify for visa liberalization. I really cannot imagine the EU putting this totally aside without Turkey fulfilling these conditions. It may be that these conditions will be fulfilled in one or two years in a fast-track process. Then it may happen, but it is not easy for Turkey to fulfill all these conditions as they range from document security to the construction of new centers and the training of staff to deal with immigrants. There is a chapter on fundamental rights, too.
Although what is on the table might not be new; nothing has moved until now. At least the new urgency can trigger the progress. What do you suggest Turkey should do; say "no?"
They should not say no, but they shouldn't be lured by the EU. How the EU is approaching Turkey is very realistic and pragmatic. Of course, Turkey should be engaged with the EU. The problem is on the one side whether or not Turkey is interested in accelerating the process. I think the government should be interested and it should make the most of this opportunity. But [government officials] should play their cards well. They should also be aware of their strong points and they should not give in easily. They should tell this to the EU: "OK, we already have a process; what are you going to do in concrete? You have made some promises that I want to see you deliver; we want to see action. We will monitor your promises." Turkey should make sure that they are not promises that are forgotten in the process.
Do you see such a stance on the part of the government?
I don't see it. What I see is that Turkey may be flattered because of this new approach by the EU. We should tell the EU that there are more fundamental problems than just opening chapters. These promises will just create the impression that things will accelerate, but in reality, they will not. It will be just about the refugee issue. We should make sure that it translates into something real.
How do you evaluate the postponement of the progress report which is said to be very critical of Turkey's human rights record?
I think they did not exert undue pressure. There are negotiations between the two sides. The message they want to give is mostly on the refugee issue. If they give a second message that does not resonate with that, this might work negatively on the Turkish side because the Turkish side could say, "You want my cooperation, but at the same time you are publishing a report critical of me." It could have been difficult reconcile these two messages. They did not want to complicate the situation.
Who is Çiğdem Nas?
Çiğdem Nas was born in Istanbul in 1966 and is a graduate of Robert College, Bosphorous University, the London School of Economics and Marmara University who completed a PhD on the minority rights regime in Europe.

Grilled Sweet Potato & Napa Cabbage Salad & Lime Vinaigrette Recipe | MyRecipes
259 calories; fat 12g; saturated fat 1.7g; mono fat 8.4g; poly fat 1.5g; protein 3.9g; carbohydrates 34.8g; fiber 5.7g; iron 1.2mg; sodium 330mg; calcium 55mg.
Made this to go along with the Tequila-Glazed Grilled Chicken Thighs (also Cooking Light) and was blown away by how much flavor was packed into this dish! Grilled the sweet potatoes over low heat and the grill marks didn't look as good as in the picture, but the method worked nicely. I would definitely make this again!
loved this. We gilled the sweet potato on a weber with wood coals. The flavor was fantastic. It took a little longer than suggested in the recipe, but it wasn't a very hot fire. Served with some sausages we got at the farmer's market and a baguette. Great meal.
Wow! A terrific salad! I cut the two pounds peeled sweet potatoes into 1/2 inch "fries"; tossed with the oil, salt, and pepper; roasted the sweet potatoes on a jelly roll pan in a 425 degree oven for 30 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes. Then I prepared half the recipe as there were just two of us. I used toasted pine nuts instead of the pumpkin seeds. It was so good my husband asked that I make it again the following night as the sweet potatoes were roasted. Finally, he asked if I would prepare it putting the dressing in a separate container so he could take it to work and share with his staff.
Enjoyed this salad but the jalapeño gave it a bitter taste. Will try again without the jalapeno and re-evaluate. Tried this again without the jalapeño and made some adjustments... added black beans, grilled the onions, used green cabbage because that is what I had, made the dressing without oil and served in 2 big bowls for a complete dinner for hubbie and me. It was a yummy plant based meal.
Great weeknight meal. It is easy to get everything else mixed with the sweet potato is on the grill. Filling and delicious. Use the hot sauce as recommended, so it was spicy - loved that! Will def. make again and again
Tried this recipe to use up some leftover napa cabbage. It is very yummy, I would try adding some avocado to the salad next time just for a change. I was worried about putting in a whole jalapeno pepper but you could hardly taste it so no problem. A nice change for sweet potatoes.
The flavors were outstanding! Very easy recipe and very healthy. I roasted the sweet potatoes just because I was already roasting vegetables for the week's meals. Worked well - I will definitely make this again.
OMG - so good, a flavor explosion in my mouth. Wasn't sure what to make with it since it seemed like it wouldn't be enough on it's own but also would be so strong in flavors that I wasn't sure what would compliment it. Ended up grilling up some thick cut bone-in Pork chops just seasoned with Salt & Pepper and it was the perfect meal. My husband and I finished the salad with just the two of us because it tasted so good we just couldn't stop eating it.
This was very fresh and filling. An unexpected flavor combo that really works.
This is a fantastic and unusual alternative to the same old summer salads. Took this to a potluck and everyone went crazy over it.
Very fresh! a great salad. Sweet potatoes gave it a wonderful texture. Will definitely make this again

Media Outlets Rush To Update Pending Sharon Obituaries | Mightier Than The Pen
Media Outlets Rush To Update Pending Sharon Obituaries
New York (AP) – A rapid deterioration of former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's condition has journalists scrambling to update their files in case the publication of an obituary becomes necessary in the coming hours or days.
Sharon, 85, suffered a stroke eight years ago that resulted in his current comatose state. The former general's life closely follows many of the defining moments of Israel's history and politics, including a dramatic shift on Jewish settlements that involved the withdrawal of all Israelis from the Gaza Strip in 2005. In keeping with industry practice regarding public figures, newspapers and other sources of current events news have long maintained files will all the pertinent details of his life in case the need arises to release an accounting of his life.
When doctors in Tel Aviv announced yesterday that Sharon's kidneys were failing and that various other systems were in peril, newsroom personnel and interns across the globe hurried to review their current information on him. In most cases the obituaries were all but written years ago; when Sharon initially suffered the stroke in January 2006, a similar scramble occurred. Little needs to be added regarding the intervening years, save perhaps for details of his deterioration and references to the long-term results of his policies.
The effort to ensure the timely publication of a comprehensive, accurate obituary is much easier in this case for that reason, says Ed G. Yoomer, who writes about journalism industry practices. "There's usually a constant monitoring of press releases, media reports, gossip sites, and official web sites to keep pending obituaries accurate," he explains. "But with Ariel Sharon, that really hasn't been necessary." There hasn't even been a death watch, as took place, for example, in the waning days of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco in 1975.
"A death watch itself becomes a media event and might be worthy of mention in an obituray," says Yoomer. "But here, all the journalists have to do is wait for one little announcement, add a few details to the article, and just pull the plug."

Is Metaverse a hope or coup de grace for Cambodian democracy? - Alumniportal Deutschland

Is Metaverse a hope or coup de grace for Cambodian democracy?
Whether Facebook's Metaverse will bring a hope or a coup de grace to democracies and freedom of expression around the globe, a case from Cambodian political spectrum's experiences with social media like Facebook should be a foundation to decide.
Facebook, an American online social network, was first introduced in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg and his friends. This most prominent social media site has secured approximately three billion users worldwide in 2021.
On the other hand, the use of Facebook was believed to start building momentum in Cambodia as early as 2008. As a new media player, Facebook has drawn attention from traditional media audiences. In the presence of Facebook and other social media platforms the traditional media associated with the government, including newspapers, radios, and TVs, became less popular from early 2010s onwards. It was a new hope for freedom of expression among Cambodians, especially young people.
Ly Sreysrors, president of the Young Analysts Group, pointed out that social media has been an essential platform for expressing opinions, especially in a country that restricts freedom of expression.
She added, "social media played an influential role in political changes in 2013 which saw the opposition's seats increase in parliament, apart from widespread use of social media.
The biggest opposition party, Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP), which was dissolved by Cambodia's Supreme court in 2017, used Facebook as a political platform to gather its support and update its political activities. CNRP used its official page, especially during the election campaign to highlight its leaders' activities, speeches, and messages to young people going to vote.
It was the first time in 30 years that the ruling party – the Cambodia People's Party (CPP), lost 22 seats to the opposition party at the national assembly during the national election in 2013.
CCP, led by Hun Sen, has been holding power for decades. He has been the world's longest-serving prime minister in power from 1985 until now.
A Facebook page that gains the most likes, approximately about 13 million likes, is known as the official page of Hun Sen. However, many questions are asked, and the debates over the likes on his page are going on.
Among 16 million of the total population, 71% who are accessing the internet. The Internet world state estimated that the number of Facebook users in Cambodia would be about 12 million in 2021.
The freedom of expression in Cambodia on social media has been in a critical position for the last few years. According to the fifth annual report, Cambodia Fundamental Freedoms Monitor published by Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) found 46 cases on restrictions of freedom of expression took place on Facebook between April to December 2020.
One example, last year, Ros Sokhet, a journalist and a founder of the independent news outlet, the Khmer Nation was sentenced to 18 months. He made Facebook posts criticizing the government over denouncing Hun Sen for promoting his son as his successor and the government response of Covid-19.
At the same time, Sreysrors said that one of her concerns in expressing her opinion on Facebook is that all data is recorded, and the government can use the information charge against individuals.
She added, "Compared to the last four years, I have to be more careful before talking or debating on Facebook. Not only for myself, but another analysts as well".
Recently, Facebook came with a new name known as Metaverse. With a new branding name, it promises to provide unique experiences to users and connect people closer than ever before.
In addition, to address the criticism over the platform's alleged roles in the political and electoral messes over the past several years in the US and other countries, the Meta's Civil Rights team was formed in 2020. It results from 117 recommendations and actions with input from over 100 civil rights and social justice organizations. This team was created in the hope of enhancing protections for marginalized communities and demonstrated its commitment to continuing the company's important work in moving towards equity across all its technologies.
In addition, the 74 pages of Meta's progress on Civil Rights Audit Commitments, which were released in November 2021, mentioned its changing landscape of civil rights challenges. The chapter on civil rights accountability infrastructure shows its firm stand in supporting free expression represented by international human rights treaties.
Sreysrors said that she did not study in detail the changes of Metaverse. However, she believes that it will partly help democracy if Metaverse has the policy to prevent like-farming politicians from manipulating their popularity.
It is still unclear on how Metaverse can contribute to democracy in Cambodia. The Civil Rights commitment introduced by Facebook is still at an earlier development stage, while the state itself has tremendous authority to limit the freedom of speech through a court and legal system loyal to them.

A slice of the large map I created.
The Port Authority of Allegheny County operates a light rail system called The T, running in subway downtown and then along two routes into the southern suburbs. In 2015 I had a chance to ride from Mt Lebanon to Allegheny on the Red Line, and in 2016 from South Hills Village to the city on the Blue Line, and I was hooked. I could see a lot of modern construction, and many traces of leftovers from long ago. I wanted to figure out what was what.
Yes, a total of three days in Pittsburgh, and five nights in Mt Lebanon. It amazes me too that I became so interested. If dozens of other people had written on this subject I wouldn't feel any need. But not so many did, so I will.
I am presenting my notes and observations mostly in graphical form, a map depicting passenger services of today and yesterday. In addition to the existing T the map shows where the Washington and Charleroi interurbans continued south, the routes of south side trolleys that lasted into the post-war period, the busways, and mainline "steam" railroads that once had passenger services.
Pittsburgh Southern itself was the name of the most obscure railway I have ever come across. It ran for five years around 1880 and unlike most abandoned railways it has been obliterated from the landscape. It's on my map but its location is a best guess from the scant materials available. I am using the name because these pages are about the territory directly south of Pittsburgh.
The two lines of The T are a remnant of a once large trolley system operated by a company called Pittsburgh Railways. They survived for reasons both political and practical. The Blue Line was part of a modest interurban railway system that ran into Washington County. The term interurban refers to an electric railway that ran between towns, a hybrid form between city trolleys and steam railroads. The Red Line by contrast was built as a local trolley line, but while it does have some street running in the Beechmont neighborhood, it was an unusual trolley line with several high bridges and a good amount of private right of way in order to serve a very hilly territory.
The two T lines separate at South Hills Junction but come together again in Castle Shannon. The Blue Line runs entirely on private right of way through a less populated area and has fewer stops, so it is the faster route, and cars to the outer branches almost all run via the Blue. The Red Line cars almost all end at Overbrook Junction. The two routes were rebuilt in stages starting in 1980. Stage One, completed from 1984 to 1987, resulted in the introduction of Light Rail Vehicles (LRVs), the downtown subway, a rebuilt Red Line including the Mt Lebanon tunnel, the branch to South Hills Village, and a yard and maintenance shops at South Hills Village. Stage Two, the totally rebuilt Blue Line and upgraded branch to Library, was completed in 2004.
The names Red Line and Blue line were not adopted until 2010. The Pittsburgh Railways route numbering scheme ran clockwise from the North Side. The Blue Line was 35 to Library, 36 to Drake, and 37 short turns at Overbrook Junction. The interurban cars to Washington County were not numbered. Routes 38 and 39 were street running in West Liberty Avenue— 38 to the Clearview Loop in Mount Lebanon, and 39 into Brookline— and 40 was street running up to Mount Washington. The present Red Line was 42 to Dormont Junction and 43 short turns at Neeld. After 38 was abandoned, 42/38 was created as the Red Line 42 plus running in the former 38 to Clearview Loop. The segment from Clearview Loop to Overbrook Junction was single track with limited service. For many years it had either a one-car shuttle called 38A during limited hours, or had a few runs off 38 and 42/38 running in the main direction in rush hours. It was only in 1987 that full-time service began as part of routes 42C and 42S.
In the 1980s PAT began renumbering bus routes to rationalize them after years of adding and dropping routes, and the light rail lines were included. There was a little-known scheme: a route ending 1 or 6 was a local to downtown, 2 or 7 was a limited-stop route to downtown, 3 or 8 was an express that skipped inner stops, and the rest were various locals. In accordance with the scheme the light rail lines were changed in 1984. The present Red Line became 42 (one of a few that regained their old numbers), and the present Blue Line became 47. But the system also included letter suffixes to designate terminals. Routes commonly operated were: 42 Mount Lebanon only, 42C Castle Shannon, 42S South Hills Village, 42L Library (1993 to 2004); and 47 Shannon (Castle Shannon loop), 47L Library, 47S South Hills, 47D Drake (route no longer operated). 44 was used for short runs that did not go downtown, like 44L for off hour runs from Washington Junction to Library and 44D from Castle Shannon to Drake. The former route 52 seems like an exception to the rule, but maybe it was justified by the few cars that continued south on the 47S route (which were not called 52S). This will not be on the test. You don't need to know any of this unless you are reading outdated descriptions of the services.
Besides the Red and Blue, there was a Brown Line, called 52 before 2010. Known as the Allentown line, it avoided the tunnel by going up over Mount Washington in streets. It combined parts of the older 47 and 48 routes that went through the tunnel and came up from South Hills Junction with the 49 that came up the city side, all of which were eliminated in 1971. The 52 provided an increasingly limited service to South Hills Junction until 2011. Tracks for it to terminate there without blocking Red and Blue services are still in place, and those tracks are used also when "Subway Local" cars run in connection with stadium events. The Allentown Line tracks and overhead are still maintained to provide an alternate route for the Red and Blue lines when the tunnel is closed for maintenance or other reasons.

Wall Street Cares is a not-for-profit organization founded after 9/11 whose sole goal is to provide financial assistance to children and families who have lost spouses unexpectedly. This year the charity honored the memory of local queens Firefighter Michael Davidson who died in the line of duty in March of 2018 leaving behind his wife and 4 young children.
This charity truly resonated with WhiteCap Search. The firm services clients and professionals working within the Financial Sector at various Banks, Hedge Funds, Private Equity Firms and Asset Managers. It was great to see people from all types of firms mix, mingle and rally together in the support of a great cause.

WhiteCap Search looks forward to continually supporting Wall Street Care’s and other charitable organizations within the community.

Taking care of your lawn is something that every homeowner needs to do, especially for those who have a large backyard. The purpose of maintaining a backyard lawn is no other than keeping it managed from any unwanted contaminant that can be dangerous to your plants, flowers, soil, and even your family members. Of course, managing your lawn is something that you can do by yourself.
(We would also recommend this: Intelligent Remodeling Ideas For Your New Garden)
Below we have some tips that you may need on how to manage your backyard lawn by yourself!
HOW TO MANAGE BACKYARD LAWN
Tools and Equipment
aussiebusinesshub.wordpress.com
The right and proper equipment will increase the quality of the lawn in a fresh and healthy way and also saves your time more so you don’t have to stay outside for hours. A few basic tools that you will need to keep are a whipper snipper or weed wacker, a leaf blower, a string trimmer, and a lawnmower with a grass catcher.
Other than the main mowing tools, your safety is the ultimate priority so want to provide yourself with good safety equipment like glasses, ear muffs, safety boots, sun spray, a hat, and clothing coverage for the arms and legs.

Aerating
lawnchick.com
Aerating is basically the process where you make some holes in the soil to loosen the ground allowing air and water to get down to the root system. This process will also help you to get well-spaced grass when you put the grass seeds in those holes.
Fertilizing and Watering
gardeningjourney.com
The next step to get a healthy lawn is by using a fertilizing product and consistent watering.
Use a specific fertilizer for a new lawn, thus, you can prepare the best green and fresh young grass.
New seeds need consistent watering to make sure that they stay wet but also please ensure not to overwater. If you’re a working person, you can water the lawn in the morning and another one once you’re back home.

Remove Any Contaminants
rolawn.co.uk
Any debris, dead grass, gas, oil, weeds, and other contaminants may prevent water, air, and mineral nutrients to reach the root. What you can do is:
If you spot a large-scale weed covering your lawn, use weed killer to remove them immediately. If there’s only a specific spot, then you will only need to treat that affected area.
For oil and gas, this usually happens when the gas or oil for the mower is overfilling so it spills to the lawn which will only kill your lawn.
As for dead grass and other debris, just like how you maintain your lawn regularly, use gardening tools to clean the soil from any debris.
(We would also recommend this: Decorative Backyard Wall Ideas to Beautify Your Outdoor View)
Good Blades
lawncaregarden.com
Sharp blades create a nice and clear edge and give the lawn a fresh look. Cutting the grass with a dull blade will tear them. Thus, fungus and diseases would easily get into the grass through the tear. Sharpen your blades at least once every four mows.
Mowing Notes
oneshoplawn.com
When the grass seedlings start to grow above 3,5 inches, it’s time for mowing.
Never mow a wet lawn because the grass clippings might form clumps.
Don’t mow within the first 4 weeks as the soil is still wet and seedlings are not much strong. After around 8 weeks, you can mow once per week.
Always consider and be mindful of the height and type of grass. 2-4 inches is the optimal height for cutting the grass.

Past the market, under the tube, on to Acton. Opposite the park, we crossed to the south side for Warple Way, the first place I worked in London, back when I really still lived in Bristol. The street follows the line of the Warple (river) as it heads down to the Thames at Chiswick, a brief glimpse of it visible at the southern end of the road. On through the town centre, and then a walk I hadn’t done for a long time, over the common towards Ealing, and that slight gap in between places before you get there. And then packed streets, the hub and buzz of Saturday shoppers on a summer’s day after too much rain, and the obvious excitement of that.
And on and on. Hanwell, where the road is flanked by cemeteries, one an outpost of Kensington and Chelsea. And where there’s a proper old milestone (Uxbridge 8, London 7) to gauge our progress against. We carry on out the other side, through the town centre, and it’s very hot now, but The Viaduct back on the north side looks ok, and we have soft drinks and peanuts at the bar to take the weight off our feet for a while. Leaving, I realise the pub must be named for an actual viaduct and, after we cross The Brent, meandering down to Brentford, we can see it in the middle-distance snaking along, carrying the railway back to Paddington.

How well do the House of Lords do their jobs? - A-Level Politics - Marked by Teachers.com
Transfer-Encoding: chunked How well do the H.O.L do their jobs? The House of Lords (HL), sometimes known as the revising chamber or upper chamber of parliament, is the second element of parliament and as such its consent (generally) is required to make law. There are two types of peer, Lord spiritual (the 26 most senior Church of England bishop, which now has 2 women in is ranks) and the Lord Temporal (of which there are three types; hereditary peers, life peers and law Lords). Before the passing of the Parliament Act in 1911 the Hl held a veto over legislation passed in the Commons. That statue means that the Lords can only delay the passing of a bill and not defeat it totally. When New Labour came into power in 1997 one of their manifesto pledges was to reform the Upper chamber by abolition the rights of hereditary peers to come to parliament and vote on legislation. This was always going to be hard to achieve and when the House of Lords Act 1999 was granted Royal Assent, due to the Weatherall (Speaker of the HC before Bercow) ...read more.
They then amend, delay or pass it through for Royal assent, which then becomes law. However, The House of Lords is limited in its ability to block legislation by statute, because they can only delay it once and if the Commons are still persistent they will send it again in the second term and it will skip the House of Lords and go straight to royal Assent. An example of this was when the Blair government wanted to reform the house of lords; they successfully passed stage one (brought hereditary peers to 92 from 777) and proceeded to stage two which was abolishment for the house of lords and creating a new second revising chamber, the House of lords said to the Blair government after they tried once but was vetoed, the lords said if they try again in the second term, the lords will veto every bill that comes through the house of lords. Another important role for the House of Lords is to scrutinise the government Lords get the opportunity to question government ministers through letters, or in the Lords, one day a week is set aside for general debates and short debates take place (lasting one and a half hours). ...read more.
The presence of 26 Church of England bishops seems strange in the 21st century but with the plethora of faith groups in the UK it could be argued that other religions be represented in Parliament or whether there is indeed any need for Lords Spiritual at all. The presence of 92 hereditary peers is also rare in Western democracies but perhaps it is these anachronisms that makes the HL ?work?. In the last Parliament it was very rigorous in its scrutiny knowing that the government's mandate was limited and so Salisbury applied to nothing! That is why some say "if it ain't broke don't fix it" but to come to a conclusion it is clear that the HL is in more need of reform than the HC. UK'S democratic credentials are seriously undermined by having an unelected second chamber. In USA Senate and House of Representatives are equal and although that has problems there is at least democratic legitimacy. To conclude, there is little appetite for the much needed reform of the HL due to there being no consensus as to what the role and composition of any second chamber should be. Uni- cameral parliament has been suggested by Luton North MP, Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) ...read more.
This seems to be an over-representation. The amount of hereditary peers was thought to be inadequate particularly by the Labour party. 64% of the Lords in the house were in fact hereditary peers. This was thought to be inadequate because these Lords had inherited the title from their fathers and they may know little to do with being part of the second chamber.
The second part of reform was to decide precisely what the composition of the Upper Chamber should be, and what powers they should hold. The possible options for reform include a directly elected second chamber, an indirectly elected second chamber, and also a mixed chamber comprising both elected and nominated elements.
That is hardly earth-shattering, as even George Osborne says the same. Miliband talks vaguely about a more proactive industrial policy, developing ideas Peter Mandelson was working on in his last years in office. There are, however, as yet very few details.
One role of the House of Lords performs is acting as a second opposition for the Governing executive, which has been especially effective during times when the Government has a large majority in the commons because of the first past the post (FPTP)

An Army of One: Clancy's
There are some restaurants we come across in our lifetime that hold special meaning to us. Whether it's the bar around the corner where you can get a greasy burger and fries, hardly ever pay for your drinks, and everybody knows your name, or the quaint neighborhood bistro that's been around just long enough to watch you grow up, precious moments are best shared at those places where you not only feel like you're known, but appreciated as well.
Last Saturday night my best friend and her husband (same girl I've dined with here, here, and here) wanted to celebrate the fact that they were in the process of buying a new car (their first car as a married couple), and my boyfriend and I wanted to celebrate his successful first year of law school (grades finally came in!). The men decided on Clancy's, and my friend and I could not have been more excited. Located on Annunciation Street, Clancy's is a place that we had all been to many times, and had come to expect an excellent meal and pristine service. I am sad to say that this particular evening was an anomaly.
Our reservations were for 8:30 p.m. and we started the night off with a round of top-shelf cocktails, and then placed our order for appetizers and entrees. Appetizers took roughly 30 minutes to get to us, then we ordered two bottles of wine, which we eventually had to ask about, because, after 15 minutes we still didn't have wine glasses on the table. Our waitress seemed frazzled, constantly coming up with one liners and excuses like "Oh, I'll try to light a fire under it" and "I have an army working behind me, I'll try to speed them up", whenever we would inquire as to where the heck our food or wine was. To save myself from completely reliving the terrible service nightmare of that evening and from turning this into one big complaint of a post, I'll leave it at this: Reservations for 8:30, entrees were not put on the table until after 10:30. In addition, we watched a table of four come in after us, get seated in our waitress's section, eat, and leave before we had even gotten our entrees. We watched this happen at least three times with other tables as well. By the end of the evening we all agreed that it felt deliberate, considering we overheard other tables thanking our waitress for a wonderful evening. Ouch.
No complaints about the food because once it finally got to the table, everything was hot and delicious. We had the Fried Oysters with Brie (a personal favorite of mine), Crabmeat Salad, Turtle Soup, Smoked Pork Loin, Seared Scallops, Paneed Veal, and Grilled Baby Drum with Smoked Salmon. Flavors were rich, seafood was fresh, meats were perfectly cooked, and I loved that okra made an appearance on my plate. All in all, we were able to make light of the evening, considering we're young and had nowhere to be, but all agreed to vehemently oppose sitting in this particular waitress's section again (she only waitresses a few nights out of the week, so that shouldn't be too hard). Clancy's is definitely worth the trip but I suggest an earlier reservation and avoiding the monster known as the "Saturday night 'Army of one' waitress".
Clancy's Menu. If your eyes are strong enough to read the prices, you can understand why bad service is such a slap in the face.
Fried Oysters with Melted Brie & Spinach. Normally you get four oysters but my boyfriend and I split it.
Clancy's Crabmeat Salad with Caviar & Deviled Egg. Also a half portion.
Boston Salad with Walnuts, Hearts of Palm, & Maytag Blue Cheese
Smoked Pork Loin with a Green Peppercorn Demi Glace, Mashed Potatoes & Sauteed Okra
Grilled Baby Drum with Smoked Salmon & Mustard Caper Sauce
I had originally ordered the Lobster Risotto, but they were out, so I ended up getting the Seared Sea Scallops with Preserved Lemon Butter. They were very, very good but the portion is quite small for the $28 price tag.
Paneed Veal Annunciation over Pasta with Seasonal Veggies
Brownie a la mode. We also ordered the butterscotch pudding and house-made peppermint ice cream with hot fudge sauce.

oh my god…. as i sit here at work, locked in the suite at Texas motor speedway, the staff is starting to bring in their cafeteria catered mac n' cheese, cream corn and short ribs… Somehow the write up and photos , esp the brie and spinach oysters is making my mouth water. LOOKS SOOO GOOD. the torture when i look over and see lumpy canned corn as my dinner option tonight…. hope you're thinking of me
Emily June 4, 2010 at 3:52 pm
Oh my… That is horrible! I do feel for you and will continue to think of you as I am sitting poolside tonight, having cocktails and mom's homemade roasted jalapeno salsa. Sucka!

Jonah Goldberg is the founding editor-in-chief of The Dispatch and has been a Los Angeles Times columnist since 2005. He holds the Asness Chair in Applied Liberty at the American Enterprise Institute.
Previously, he was a senior editor at National Reviews and still remains a fellow of the National Review Institute. Additionally, he is also a weekly columnist for The Times, a Fox News contributor, and a regular member of the “Fox News All-Stars” on “Special Report with Bret Baier.”
Goldberg also appears on NPR’s “Morning Edition” and is the author of three NY Times bestsellers, the most recent of which is “Suicide of the West.”
The Politic secured an interview with Goldberg. Read more below:
You’ve been in the journalism game for 30+ years. What’s been the most noticeable shift in coverage/conventions since the late ‘80s or early ‘90s?
Journalism is more Wild Wild West than you would expect in a fully-formed democracy. The big change in my life is that when I first started out as a researcher at the American Enterprise Institute, the internet barely existed, and it really wasn’t the dominant medium for what seemed like a very long time. What we’ve now seen is a vast amount of disintermediation, where the big institutions that used to be the anchors of a media culture have all broken loose from their mores.
In the first 10 years of the internet, a big chunk of what everyone did was just comment on what dominant publications like the NYT or the Washington Post were reporting. They were the frames of reference for vast amounts of commentary. Places like that are still important, but not important in the same way anymore. It’s like when you’re at sea and you have a couple of landmarks in mind to help you triangulate your position. When all the landmarks are also moving, it’s really hard to do that.
What’s been the major impact of disintermediation?
I think that sort of drift has affected a lot of different things, especially when combined with the idea of Yuval Levin’s new book on institutions. One of the things that has happened–and this is largely Yuval’s argument–is that we no longer think of institutions as things that form character. But look at the Marines–you go in there as a hippie and come out as a Marine. Same with the Boy Scouts.
With journalism, these institutions were supposed to create journalists of a certain type, but what’s happened is that we’ve now internalized the romantic idea that institutions are platforms on which we perform and shine a light on ourselves instead. Every day there’s another example. Take Colin Kaepernick. To be clear, I’m not supporting or defending him–say what you will, but he did use the NFL as a platform for his own agenda. Journalists do this all the time, where they use the authority of a larger institution to signal boost their own brand. That’s been happening for a long time. It’s a problem with the larger culture and not just journalism, but it’s really noticeable when everyone wants to be a star and use platforms to cast a light on themselves.
Is it possible to be a journalist nowadays without a Twitter platform? Do you know anyone who doesn’t use Twitter?
It’s very hard to be a journalist and not look at Twitter, but there are a bunch who don’t tweet, and there are a bunch who just lurk. It’s a very useful platform for gaining insight into the zeitgeist–into where conventional wisdom is heading or where the very online Left or Right are going–if you know how to put it into context. It’s a window, though maybe a distorting one, into a lot of what’s going on out there. But, there’s Kevin Williamson from the National Review who no longer tweets, and there’s John Podhoretz who realized he couldn’t keep tweeting because it would take him to unhealthy places if he kept engaging. There are more and more people who are trying to kick the Twitter habit. Personally, I just think the world needs my dog videos so badly that I can’t stop.
Social media has been around for 20+ years at this point–why’s it such a problem?
On a broad perspective, Megan McArdle says that all new forms of media–social media or otherwise–are disruptive. Starting with the printing press, I don’t think you get the Protestant Revolution without it. She makes the point about the radio: The time between the first one coming off the assembly line (circa 1920) and 50-percent household penetration (1929) was a decade. It’s not a coincidence that the amount of social upheaval in the 1930s came from the existence of radio. The same thing happened with VHS (1977), which was disruptive to all sorts of things.
Social media is incredibly disruptive. Eventually, cultures figure out how to adapt to new forms of media. The problem with social media is that it’s so rapidly transformative that we’re still in the throes of the adaptation process. People are just now realizing, “Holy shit! Maybe I shouldn’t be tweeting all of my unfiltered thoughts.” Some people learn faster than others.
The issue isn’t just Twitter but also Facebook, which tends to reward those who feel most passionately, whether that’s passionately angry, passionately defensive, or even–though very rarely–passionately happy. Social media monetizes dopamine hits, so it makes people feel more strongly, and the disruption is coming at the worst time. Our institutions were already dissolving long before Twitter and social media came along, but the process is now accelerating because of these platforms.
Why don’t publications ban their journalists from promoting personal opinions on Twitter?
A lot of big newspapers are struggling to find a balance with their social media policy. You saw this recently with the journalist who tweeted after Kobe Bryant’s death. I think the Washington Post made the wrong decision in punishing her, but part of it really depends on your lane. I’ve always basically been an opinion journalist–I put my opinions out there. I’m trying to learn restraint as best as I can, but I don’t have the same job description as a straightforward reporter.
It used to be considered a grave faux pas for reporters to tip off their own opinions to readers. It was like a judge showing bias–it would be wildly inappropriate for a judge to tweet strong opinions about contemporary politics or what might come before his bench. It’s much different for a defense attorney. I think one of the problems is that a lot of people who’re supposed to stay in one lane think they can cross a bunch of different lanes without any issues. When it comes to an opinion columnist who tweets a lot, the content might matter, but it matters less than it does for the Whitehouse Correspondent to the Wall Street Journal.
The idea of journalistic objectivity is relatively recent, right?
There’s a strong case–I’ve been making this argument for a long time. In the period from 1900 to 1980 when CNN came out, there’s a big chunk of time, particularly after WWII, during which the mainstream media really bought into this idea of objectivity. I’ve always had some problems with the idea of objectivity, but the idea basically came out of technology. The telegraph brought a whole lot of instantaneity. You could report on events in minutes instead of weeks. If you sent Stephen Crane or whoever to cover the War of 1812, he would have had to send his dispatches back home by horseback. It was sort of baked into the cake that there would be personal bias under those circumstances.
But with the rise of television followed the idea that you could remove the perspective of the journalist from the entire enterprise and then have objective facts reported. That’s not the way the rest of the world went. It has to do with an American fetish with technology. In the U.K., the newspapers have always been noticeably biased. The Guardian is Bolshevik or whatever. That doesn’t mean they’re bad papers. You know where they’re coming from. You know the angles they’re inclined to bring to these stories. That’s okay because the reader is in on it.
If you go to the 19th century, newspapers were wildly biased. The backbone of America is political association. Think about papers like the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. If you look at the way they covered the anti-slavery vs. pro-slavery debates, it was really amazing. The pro-slavery papers would say something like, “Lincoln was so enraged by the superiority of Stephen Douglas’ argument that it took 12 men to hold him back.” The pro-Lincoln papers would say, “The sheer force of Lincoln’s intellect reduced Stephen Douglas to a blubbering baby.” But you sort of figured it out, and that was the norm for most of American history, particularly until the post-WWII era with AM broadcasting, the radio, and eventually the internet. So, in some ways, we’re doing a reversion back to the norm.
Do you think the journalism industry will become more centralized as we increasingly look for trustworthy sources?
I don’t know if it’s a problem, but what’s really different is that because the internet is not only national but global, a lot of the economics that made local newspapers viable have gone out the window. You can get a lot of the content you want from outlets a hundred or a thousand miles away. Because the advertising has gone elsewhere, particularly classified advertising, it makes it difficult to sustain local newspapers. People have access to more information, but it’s nationalized. I think there are always going to be a lot of different news and opinion outlets, but there are going to be real deserts in terms of local reporting, because a lot of the great local newspapers and outlets are devastated by changes in the economy.
I read your piece, “The Intellectual Wet Market.” Some people have said there’s no market for The Dispatch–what’s your theory?
We think there’s a market for what we’re doing at The Dispatch, but it’ll take a long time to find out for sure because we’re small now and need to scale up. Part of the reason we see a market opportunity is that, even if you count all the institutions on the Right that do reporting and you think it’s all great, that’s still only a fraction of what you get from the Center and the Left.
There’s a lot of stuff out there that’s basically based on the Twitter clickbait model, but we think people are turned off by that. We think there are a lot of outlets which do miserable things because they need massive amounts of traffic. How do I stop that video? How do I stop pop up ads? Part of our theory is that there are enough people out there that value their time, that don’t have a lot of it, that want to know about the news, and that want serious analysis and reporting which isn’t filled with outrage. They want news that tells them stuff they can trust is accurate.
One of the advantages of this climate is that you don’t need 30 million people to sign up. That would be great, but if we’ve got 300,000 people that are willing to subscribe and pay for what we’re offering, or even the 30,000 we have right now, we can scale up like gangbusters.
I’ve often wondered how many people care about being informed. Isn’t the fact that most people aren’t all that interested in politics?
It’s lost on a lot of people. You ask them, “How many people do you think regularly watch Fox News?” They think half the country is red, or Conservative, or Republican. I’m a contributor to Fox News, so I’m not trying to beat up on them, but Sean Hannity gets 3.5 million people watching. The universe of people who watch Fox News is probably a little broader than those who watch Hannity, but that still leaves 328 million people not watching. It’s even worse for MSNBC.
With CBS, you can maybe get 30 percent of the country. (On February 3, 2019, 98.2 million people–30 percent of the U.S. population–tuned into CBS’ broadcast of Super Bowl LIII.) When you have that large a cross-section of America, it’s much easier to tell people what they need to hear and what they want to hear–it’s easier to feed them their spinach. Advertisers are desperate to get their products in front of eyeballs, so they’ll pay a lot. But they also don’t want content that pisses off the public, so there’s an extreme bias to advertising in the old days that’s largely gone now.
Everyone is looking for a market of 2 percent of the public that’s really sticky and stays with you no matter what. We have a theory that there’s a sticky group that doesn’t want to be pandered to, that’s interested in a smart Conservative perspective, and that isn’t just responding to stupid tweets. You don’t need a lot of them to be successful. But we’re entrepreneurs–we’re giving it a shot. We’re more in it for the mission than the money, but we think there’s a market for what we’re doing.
Which other outlets do you think are giving a smart Conservative perspective right now? Which ones should students be paying attention to?
National Review is worth looking at. I didn’t leave as some grand indictment–you can disagree with this or that, but I think it’s a worthwhile publication to read. National Affairs is a treasure, too, and Commentary is also great. Basically, I think politically-engaged youth should have a really diversified media diet. They should spend much less time watching TV and more time reading. If you need electronic media, podcasts are great. I can’t stress EconTalk enough.
This is not a knock, but at the end of the day, TV is simply an entertainment medium–and once you understand that, it helps you put it in perspective. Particularly when you talk about anything that isn’t serious news reporting television, it’s just entertainment. It can be highbrow or lowbrow, but it’s still what a specific personality says in an argument with another personality. It’s nutritionally deficient. It reduces things to soundbites, and it rewards people for yelling at each other. Again–there’s good stuff on TV. But if you’re only getting your news from TV, you’re not getting informed.
On your point about having a diversified media diet–that’s common advice, but realistically-speaking, isn’t that impractical? I.e., If I’m a busy student, I don’t really want the redundancy of multiple outlets. How many people are actually interested in that?
Part of our business model is to appeal to really smart people who don’t have the need to do deep dives on stuff but also want stuff they can trust isn’t manipulating their opinions. If you’re an engineer who’s busy doing your job, but you’re smart and engaged and all that but want to get up to speed quickly, we want to provide that kind of resource. That said, there’s also the harder part of the problem is that everyone feels like they’re supposed to have strong political opinions, but relatively few people want to put in the time and the effort to understand the reasons for those opinions.
It doesn’t bother me that people aren’t engaged in politics. I generally see that as a sign of societal health, since we’re not supposed to think everything is about the government. But to the extent that you’re going to take voting and politics seriously, you’ve got to do your homework. It wouldn’t bother me if they didn’t follow through with really extreme, ill-informed opinions or with them calling others bad people. The problem is that people are incredibly passionate about politics. They wear it on their sleeves, and they only go looking for stuff that confirms their opinions rather than challenging them.
How much of that do you think is signaling?
There’s an enormous amount of signaling going on. For instance, I like The Economist a lot–it often has great stuff. But at the same time, there’s a really high ratio of people who subscribe to The Economist but don’t actually read it. Instead, they just like to have it on their coffee table.
It’s the same in publishing, too. There’s a really huge delta between the number of books people buy and the number they actually read. There are certain books that people want to signal that they own but don’t actually read because they feel like they got everything they needed from a book review or even the dust jacket.
To be fair for the sake of argument, let’s say 20 percent just do it for the signaling–there’s probably another 20 percent that don’t think they’re doing it for the signaling. They read one article and believe, therefore, that they read The Economist. People do that with The New Yorker, too. They even do that with their NPR tote.
Can I get my Dispatch tote yet??
We don’t have swag yet. But look–we’re not above some of this. We’ve hoisted up the pirate flag, and we’re calling people to come to our aid. There’s nothing inherently evil or immoral about this kind of stuff. But we’re looking for allies. We’re looking for people who want to be a part of something. That’s why we want a big community component to what we’re doing. We want readers to feel like there’s a place with like-minded individuals.
There’s a reason I call my podcast “The Remnant.” It harkens back to a 1980s essay in The Atlantic Monthly by Albert Jay Nock. It’s about a certain irreducible amount of people out there that don’t get caught up in the populist hysteria. It alludes to other things, too, like the Book of Isaiah. We think there are a whole bunch of people out there who are really interested in politics, arguments, and ideas, who maybe even aren’t conservative themselves, and who are interested in what thoughtful Conservatives have to say but don’t want the screaming or drama. That’s the brand we’re going for, and it’s a tricky brand to go for, because you don’t want to be dull, or finger-wagging, or sanctimonious. You want to be engaging. It’s not like we’re the only ones trying to do that, but we’re the only ones doing what we’re doing as well as we’re doing it.

Ryerson seven-footer Tanor Ngom hopes to break U Sport barrier in NBA draft | The Star
Thu., Nov. 22, 2018timer6 min. read
Their partnership began some 11,000 kilometres from Toronto, on a concrete court under a corrugated metal roof in Dakar, Senegal.
Tanor Ngom was a seven-foot-two teen with NBA dreams.
Rana decided to help get him there.
"I've never had the opportunity in my career to coach a kid of this potential here in Canada," Rana said. "It is a partnership. Him and I are in this together. Dream the dream and go try and make it happen."
But an oft-quoted 2011 Sports Illustrated story surmised that a seven-foot American male has a 17 per cent chance of making the NBA. And while that report raised some eyebrows since it was published, in a game that places a premium on size, Ngom had won the genetics lottery.
"We went and picked him up at the airport, and he was every bit of seven-foot-two," Rana said. "Even though I'd seen him in Senegal it was so long ago so you think, 'OK 7-2, but he's probably 6-11.' "
"Right off the bat, I was like 'Wow, we've got something pretty special here,' " Rana said. "He was 198 pounds, tiny, but he was fluid. Athletically for a guy that size, he doesn't move like a seven-footer, he moves like he's 6-8, 6-9.
Ngom has been on a steep learning curve since his arrival.
In August, Ngom became the first Canadian university player to participate in the elite Nike Skills Academy in Los Angeles. He held his own against Bol Bol (the Oregon Ducks' seven-foot-three centre and son of Manute Bol) despite his limited basketball background.
The camp's star-studded coaching staff included LeBron James, Paul George, Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant and Ngom's favourite player, Anthony Davis.
"It was unbelievable, I'm still shaking just thinking about it," Ngom said, flashing a megawatt smile.
Ngom pulls out his phone and scrolls to a photo. In it, he's dunking, and Durant is at the top of the key, eyes peering up at the rim.
"I was starstruck. I looked at (Durant) from afar, I couldn't talk to him," Ngom said, his long limbs folded onto a stool at Ryerson's Mattamy Athletic Centre. "I couldn't even take a picture with him. And then he walked off the court and went home and I was kind of sad. Then Anthony Davis walked in and coach said, 'You're not missing this opportunity.' He took my hand said, 'You're taking a picture with him,' so I took a picture with (Davis)."
Less than a week later, Ngom drew kudos in Ryerson's pre-season game against the NCAA's top-ranked Duke Blue Devils in Mississauga, throwing down a huge dunk from the weak side, and blocking a shot by Canadian phenom R.J. Barrett.
He is already drawing attention, with a Golden State Warriors scout attending a recent Ryerson game.
Ngom can enter the NBA draft this year. As an international player, he can enter and withdraw from the draft three times. Sudanese centre Thon Maker jumped straight from playing high school basketball in Orangeville to go 10th overall to Milwaukee in 2016.
Raveling thinks so; Ngom's athleticism lends itself to today's trend toward positionless basketball.
"Time is both his ally and his enemy," Raveling said. "But if I'm sitting in a draft room, I'm looking at the limited exposure that he has to the game and how quick he's narrowing the gap. So someone will have to draft him with the idea that 'We're going to be patient, but our patience will be rewarded.'"
Growing up, Ngom — who was six-foot-three by age 12 — was focused on school. But his school's coach came begging when a player went down with an injury when Ngom was 14.
His dad forbid him from attending.
"I went anyway," he said with a laugh — his mom gave him the green light. "I stayed the whole weekend and it was hell. It was very hard. Because all of those guys were playing for so long, they were so strong. Imagine me at 14. I'm skinny now, imagine me then. It was horrible."
"Afterward he said 'Is this what you really want to do?' " Ngom said. "He understood. He said if this is what I wanted to do, he would invest in me."
Rana coached Canada's U19 team to World Cup gold in 2017, is currently the head coach of Canada's men's team for World Cup qualifying and coached the World Team at eight straight Nike Hoop Summits.

Distress Ink Blending & Prismacolor Colored Pencil On The Margin - Bible Art Journaling Challenge Week 34 - Rebekah R Jones
I hopped over to the book of Hebrews for this challenge and had some discussion with my Ministry Champions, about what sort of supplies would be fun for illustrating my thoughts on the verse I chose. So, out came some mixed media techniques! Join me in my video and then I'll expand afterward!
Please remember, you do not need to use the supplies or techniques I've shown you today, to join in to the Bible Art Journaling Challenge. Simply grab what you have and get spending time in the Word! Of course, if you have a die cutting machine, Distress Inks and/or Prismacolor Colored Pencils… feel free to follow along, or go wild with your own ideas! 🙂
Hebrews 4:10-11 is our scripture for this week. It says…
Missing out on rest
I'd recommend you read Hebrews 3:7 – 4:13, in order to understand the context of our story today. It's not long. Here is a bit of it in Hebrews 3:7-19.
I want to ask you to focus in here for a moment. Ask yourself as you read this, what caused the people to not enter rest. This is not a trick question. You'll find it plainly as you read.
Did you catch that? We can see, that unbelief is what caused them to not enter rest. A few verses later we see in Hebrews 4:2, what clearly happened as the author refers back to "the rebellion" (see Exodus 17), which I've recently talked with you about.
Had they chosen to have ears to hear what God was showing them through His works, they would have not entered into unbelief. While the act of resting is a commandment, there is a bigger picture here. We get to enter a deeper kind of rest which God offers, if we choose to stay in a place of faith, and not unbelief. I'd love to hear from you in the comments below, about how God speaks to you about this topic. It is vast and beautiful. We could enjoy some discussion below!
Rest according to Mark
Mark 6:30-56 is a chunk of scripture I've been creating on in my NASB Note-Taker's Bible. I was in Bath City, England the other day while Heidi Baker of Iris Ministries was sharing. A while back I asked her husband Rolland for permission to use some of his amazing photography in my artwork, which he generously agreed to. It worked out great that I got to listen to his wife Heidi, while I put the first main layers of color into this sunset he captured in Mozambique.
As a side note, some of you have asked (over on facebook), what that booklet is in the photo. It's my Peerless watercolor palette and you can watch my free tutorial on how to make one! I LOVE throwing it in my purse/bag with a Bible, water brush and bit of paper towel. Super light, on the go creativity. 🙂
Anyway, Mark 6:30-56 talks about this topic of rest and I want to share it with you. I'll underline some interesting things I want to draw your attention to.
What a deep passage of scripture! I don't have the capacity to unpack this properly but please ponder it for yourself. Here are a few interesting points about it to me.
When Jesus noticed that he and the disciples had need of rest, He told them to rest and modeled it to them. They then obeyed with that physical act of choosing to rest.
Upon seeing the 5,000 in need of food, Jesus told the disciples to feed them. This was their chance to soften their hearts toward God's miraculous power and trust in His provision. Instead their hearts were hardened (Mark 6:51-52). I believe this is why they were "utterly astounded" when the wind ceased and Jesus got in the boat with them. That whole experience felt literally "unbelievable" to them, because their hearts were not soft enough toward the works of God.
I personally think that one of the reasons Jesus had the capacity for healing everyone who touched his clothes, was because He had rested properly in between times of ministering to others. We can learn a lot from reading what His model of this looked like.
One key to not hardening our hearts, is to keep a sense of child-like wonder in our perception of God's works. When we see God do something miraculous, we need to take a moment to breathe in the wonder and majesty of it. And we need to ensure we take the time to document and record what He has done.
Why? So when tough times come, we can pull out that recording and let it be a remembrance stone to us, of God's goodness. Of His ability to do it again for us. We must embrace what He has done and let it fashion our hearts for seasons to come. Otherwise, we can fall prey of unbelief which comes through forgetting what God is capable of. And that my friends, is the trap which leads to not being able to enter His true rest.
Rest according to Matthew
Matthew 14:26-33 unpacks the same story we find in Mark, with a different perspective. It is beautiful to me that none of the four Gospels, (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), share conflicting information at any time. They may share a different perspective, but never do they conflict. So this is how Matthew recorded things. This is just as the disciples saw Jesus walking on water…
26 But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" and they cried out in fear. 27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, "Take heart; it is I. Do not be afraid." 28 And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water." 29 He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me." 31 Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, "O you of little faith, why did you doubt?" 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. 33 And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God."
Again, I'd love to fully unpack this section of scripture. Instead, I'll highlight some points that stand out to me. I'd love to hear in the comments, what stood out to you!
Because the disciples had allowed their hearts to be hardened, and were not soft toward God's miraculous ability, they were terrified when they saw Him walking on water. I suppose those who keep their heart familiar with God's goodness, would instead recognize the situation and believe it to be Jesus, instead of be terrified it might be a ghost. It seems to me they were too focused on the enemy and his works and not focused on God and His ability. I know many who sadly fall into this trap and it can be a huge distraction from entering God's rest.
Jesus in His goodness, immediately spoke to break the power of fear over them.
We can see in verse 28, that Peter said, "Lord, if it is you…". That is a sign he had unbelief. Yet, he would have looked like the same guy they'd been basically living with! I'm not sure about you, but I would remember what my own house mates look like. Peter was shaken by the circumstances in which He saw Jesus. We can learn from this, that we need to be familiar enough with God and His goodness, that we recognize His presence no matter where and how He shows up in our lives.
Peter did exercise faith and got out of the boat to walk on water toward Jesus. This may be more than some of us would have been willing to do. I applaud Peter's example of choosing to trust God despite his fear of the circumstances. Sadly, Peter then focused on the problem, (the storm), instead of the God there to reach out His hand.
When Jesus got into the boat with the disciples, the wind ceased. Powerful stuff here. When we invite God into our circumstances, He brings His rest, His peace… into our situation. Calm is inevitable when we are in His presence. That is where I want to stay. After all, His name is Prince of Peace.
It might feel like I'm skipping between the topic of rest and the topic of unbelief. Not really. The Bible has clearly laid out for us here, that there are two types of rest.
The first type is one we choose as a physical act of obedience and personal refreshment. The second is a rest which supernaturally comes to us, by living in a place of faith, instead of unbelief, about His ways in our life. God's rest is something we get to enter, when we choose to keep our hearts soft toward His presence and its impact in our lives. Unbelief is something which causes us to miss that supernatural rest God offers!
I'm not sure about you, but I want to always keep a soft heart toward the things He is doing in and around me, so I cannot somehow be deceived into thinking that something or someone else, is responsible for the goodness God alone gets credit for. I want to embrace His presence in every area of my life and let it keep shaping my heart softly toward Him, so I recognize Him when He moves in and around me.
I want to obediently rest physically and also stay soft toward Him, so I can be refreshed physically AND spiritually. What a gift to serve a God who requires us to rest as an act of obedience. He is the only God, that has such a requirement. He is so in love with His people.
A slightly different but important point on this that I'd like to make, really speaks to those of you who perhaps have been, or are currently, part of churches who have experienced an outpouring of God's presence – a move of God, in your midst corporately.
My husband and I own The Revival Study Bible, which we enjoy studying the Word together in. There is an interesting footnote associated to our verse today, which I want to share with you here.
Revival that is not based on the principle of rest is a revival that will end in adrenaline default. One of the greatest temptations ministers and participants of revival meetings fall into is the perception that revival must maintain a high, frenzied momentum to continue. Sleep, being the lowest form of physical revival, should clue us into the principle that rest, and not drivenness, is fundamental for lasting revival. Throughout the centuries, revivalists who maintained a high intensity for the sake of maintaining revival meetings experienced premature death, moral failure, physical illness, and teachings gone awry. Revival fires must be maintained through gentle rest.
Whether in personal life or in church life, I think it is key that we embrace God's presence in a way which allows us to enter His rest. It is too beautiful a thing to skip out on.
On a more creative note, I would love you to try any of the techniques I've shared in my process with you today if you're interested in them. I also want you to feel free to gather inspiration in other places for joining me in this weekly challenge. The goal is to get in to the Word and spend time with God.

You are beautiful. I visit your devotionals two, three times daily, and I truly enjoy what you do. For that I want to say thank you. I woke up this morning with you on my mind, God is telling me to pray for you. So I will. If you're feeling sick, I pray for healing, if you're feeling weary, I pray for strength and peace. Your blessing is coming. I pray that the Holy Spirit takes over your mind and creativity and touch many more souls. Your ministry is going far and it will go further. God is using you in the most beautiful way, and I cannot wait to see your growth in this chapter of your life.
God bless, and have. Wonderful day

Capture Your Personality in a Photo - Jobble
Your favorite photo of yourself might be a great profile picture for Instagram or Facebook…but is it the right one for a job application?
When a hiring manager has hundreds of applicants, you want to make sure your profile picture has the chance to shine. You feel great about answering their interview questions, but did you think about the profile photo you've chosen? There are a few things to consider when trying to take a great profile photo. Here's how you can find the right balance of personality and professional.
Virtual Visual Introduction
There's nothing worse than seeing a default avatar or "No Photo Available" when you're trying to get a first sense of someone. If you're given the chance to make a quick little introduction, put your best self forward.
"Managing your personal (and professional) brand is the key to successful networking, job placement, and career development," said Allie Hagerty, Director of Human Resources at Jobble. "Having a proper photo represented on your profile (whether on Jobble's platform or on LinkedIn) is helpful in managing your brand before even meeting a hiring manager or recruiter."
You can hire a photographer or go to a studio to get professional headshots done, but you can also take great photos on your own. Here are a few tips on how to take and choose photos that can help you stand out.
The Right Elements For Your Profile Picture
There are a couple of key elements to keep in mind when getting ready to take your photos (or when deciding to upload).
Background: Finding the background can be the biggest challenge, but you don't have to overthink it! Let yourself be the main focus. Finding a clear wall or something with a simple pattern is perfect. Ideally, you also want to find an area near a window to have natural light help brighten your shot.
Lighting: You don't need a professional lighting kit to take a nice, clear photo. Make sure your camera and the light source are both facing you so you are well-lit for the photograph. Facing a window is a great way to get beautiful natural light. If that's not an option, you can use a lamp; just make sure the shadows don't change your appearance!
Pose: Posing can be intimidating, but keep in mind that you want to take a handful of different shots. Headshots are the best pose. Photos will often be scaled down to a thumbnail, so make sure your face is clear and easy to see! If you're setting aside time to really nail your perfect photo, cover all of your angles before you put your camera away. Outfit changes are okay too, especially if you feel more confident in one outfit over another.
Putting the Best Picture First
So now, hopefully, you have some photos that you're proud of and want to add to your profile. But, before you do, here's one more thing to consider– which one comes first?
The first photo you upload is your primary profile photo. This is the first (and maybe only) visual that a hiring manager sees. You want this photo to be a clear visual of what you look like while also adding a little personality and flair.
Don't feel pressured to add too many photos. Each photo should have a purpose: think about what you want a hiring manager to think when they look at it.
According to Allie, "the best photos I've seen represent the person on a daily basis. Don't wear contacts in your picture if you prefer to wear your glasses everyday. Have a shade of lipstick you rock on the daily? Wear it in the photo. The biggest advice I can give to anyone is to be authentically you!"
If you follow these tips to take and choose a great personality photo, you'll find yourself jumping out of application pools, landing jobs and building your gig worker reputation in no time!

Paper Napkin Poetry: TAST/open base needlewoven picot stitch ~ the fifteen minute challenge ~ Photo Art Friday
Posted by libbyquilter at 8:23 AM
Maureen November 16, 2012 at 9:27 AM
I love both images but I think I like the original best just because there is some color.
I think we put too much pressure on ourselves. This is the thing I don't like about deadlines - even self made ones. I think you've made the right choice to not rush the completion of the stockings. I'm looking forward to the reveal and want you to, too!
Your holiday plans sound special and so does your daughter.
You are so good at expressing yourself. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Evelyn November 16, 2012 at 10:25 AM
I love your edited version of your still life shot. The black and white really suits the image ~ it looks simple and classic! I love the addition of the text and texture too, they really add to the image!
Ruth November 16, 2012 at 12:27 PM
Such beautiful work, you're very talented :) I love the first edit with the script and I love the festive stitching too, it's gorgeous!
Jeanne November 16, 2012 at 2:06 PM
Like the shadows of this fork, such mystery!
Currie Silver November 16, 2012 at 2:38 PM
I love the photo of shadows. I have several well-loved shadows here in the Wee Cottage. Many I see only in the dark of my mornings. I love how they are my own little secret treasures. Another stellar PAF!!
Bonnie November 16, 2012 at 4:19 PM
You are SO creative! Love your still life edit!!!
Lori November 16, 2012 at 5:58 PM
Lovley post Libby. We do have so much to be thankful for.
As far as your stockings, how about using them for your family unfinished and continue to work on them. Of course, we are looking forward to seeing them...on YOUR schedule!
Cheryl November 17, 2012 at 5:35 AM
I love your daughter's holiday plan! We are trying to get back to the true meaning of the holiday. However, I still love the decorating. And I am sure your family will love their stockings whether or not they are finished or not!
I always look forward to the recent gifts portion of your posts. They remind me that I need to be thankful for all the little things in this life!
Barb November 17, 2012 at 6:02 AM
I like the digital photo best. I love ephemera and the script behind it makes it look mysterious.
I'm glad to hear you say you area giving yourself permission to miss your deadline if need be. It is a gift we give ourselves.
I love the little mitten ornament! so cute
Kate November 17, 2012 at 6:38 PM
I like the digitally alterered image, though both are great images. The all black and white adds a crispness that I really like.
My Mom hangs stockings for us each year and every year adds a little bit more to them (a new pin or applique to go with whatever new stuff that is going on in our lives) Nothing says that your stockings have to be complete for you to use them this year. They'll just have more reason to look at them next year when they are done. Or maybe they are never done and you fiddle with them a little bit each year. It could be the start of a really fun tradition.
Congrats on managing 7 out of 7. I think I need to borrow some motivation from you because mine's on the fritz.
Miriam November 18, 2012 at 1:20 AM
I love the original best because I see rainbows in the reflections. I am so pleased I am not the only one who love to take pictures of shadows!
Ida November 18, 2012 at 3:52 PM
Oh your PAF piece is really nice. I love color but I also think the shadows stand out more in the BW version.
I hear you about the holidays and feeling rushed and pressured. Every year I always hope to get things done ahead of time but find myself rushing as usual (I think that's just my tradition)and it all gets done in spite of my worry and fretting.

Good sleep is essential to maintaining physical, emotional, spiritual and social health. However, many people are seriously sleep deprived. Dr. Meg Meeker discusses the benefits of getting good sleep and some of the potential problems parents and kids may experience if they don’t get enough rest at night.

Would it surprise you to know that stress is a natural process within our bodies? It’s true. Stress originates from our “fight or flight mechanism”, our natural defense against predators and danger.
So what are the signs that our natural defense mechanism is kicking in? In basic terms, we have internal triggers (stress hormones) that heighten our muscle preparedness and alertness. It also induces sweating, increased blood pressure and a faster breathing rate. Does all of this sound familiar?
In small doses this kind of stress is a good thing. It’s something you want in a time of need. However, as our environment has changed overtime, the triggers for our defense mechanism have also changed. Today we face far more stressors than ever before, which affects our bodies on an unhealthy level. Our bodies weren’t designed for this level of stress accumulation.
Most of us can relate to two popular stress triggers in our daily life: Social interactions and the work place. Both of these can lead to anxiety, which isn’t healthy. These stressors just scratch the surface, in fact the World Health Organization has named stress as the epidemic of the 21st century.
Any of these above factors can take form or develop into one of three general classifications of stress.
The way most of us experience stress is considered short term and classed as acute. It usually involves thinking about a future event in our life or work. Think about planning a wedding… See, I have already stressed you out! A lot a time is spent planning the wedding in detail, but once the wedding is over, successfully, the stress is released. Normal symptoms of acute stress include headaches and stomachaches. So watch out for those signs.

Nomination Tips and Guidance
How to Put Together the Best Honors and Awards Nomination Packet
Once you have identified a nominee and they have accepted the nomination, it is time to put together a packet.
Review the National Honors and Awards information, the deadlines and requirements, and watch the webinar.
Start early! The national awards process runs from November 1 to March 1 annually. Begin gathering information from the candidate to support the awards packet. This includes personal information needed for the application and names of other groups or individuals that may be able support the nomination.
Assume the Honors committee has no idea who the nominee is, what their job entails, or what their impact has been. The Honors reviewers come from all backgrounds and disciplines. Spell things out as much as possible so that everyone reviewing is on the same page.
Reach out to other groups to see if they will co-support the nomination. Co-sponsors can be DPGs, MIGs, affiliates or other Academy organizational units.
A good nominee should be active in multiple groups and multiple levels of the Academy. Having support from multiple groups not only shows the breadth of impact the nominee has had in the field, but also helps spread out the workload.
Ask the nominee to update their resumé or CV. When contacting recommendation letter writers, it is best to include this document. The resumé or CV can be no more than 25 pages.
Once the resumé or CV is ready, reach out to groups or individuals the nominee has identified as potential recommenders. Ideal recommenders should be well-known in their fields of work. It is a good idea to ask different recommenders to address different award qualifications rather than every letter trying to cover the entire spectrum. The cover letter is where every qualification will be addressed.
When asking for a recommendation letter, include a description of the award, its importance to the Academy, and a few lines about why the nominee qualifies for the award. Provide the letter writers with the nominee's resumé or CV, as well as the letter writing guidelines below.
Include a deadline for when they must send their final letters to you. Try and get first drafts of letters back by early February so you have time to make edits and have buffer time in case someone is late.
Note that current Academy/Foundation BOD and Honors Committee members, as well as Academy staff, are not eligible to write recommendation letters.
As letters and the nominee's resumé or CV come in, work with the co-sponsors and the nominee to write the cover letter. The cover letter should synthesize information from other letters and resumé/CV while making the case as to why the nominee should win the award. The cover letter can be no more than 10 pages.
The cover letter may include brief, pertinent quotations from individuals that have not written recommendation letters. If included, the quotes should add new information rather than simply an endorsement.
Collect any additional information or work samples that can be added to the nomination packet.
Any questions? Email [email protected].
Proofread, edit, and submit. You are done!
How to Write a Stellar Recommendation Letter
Recommendation letters are key to Honors and Award packets. Letter writers are generally well-known and accomplished in their own fields. It is not uncommon for previous award recipients to write letters of support for nominees. It is important to have a wide range of groups and disciplines represented by the recommenders. Do not pick 5 people from a single DPG. Select writers from different parts of the nominee's life - work, volunteer service, leadership, mentors, or mentees.
Each letter should detail the accomplishments of the nominee as they pertain to the award criteria, but, unlike the cover letter, each letter should be from a personal perspective. The writer should paint a vivid picture of the contributions the nominee has made. They should try to speak to the criteria they are most familiar with regarding the nominee, but do not need to address all the criteria.
Encourage recommenders to focus on a few aspects of the award criteria. For example, a student might talk about a nominee's promotion of dietetics in the classroom setting by encouraging students to pursue professional credentials, while an employer may talk about how a nominee created a career ladder to promote dietitians. It is a good idea to ask those writing the recommendation letters which criteria they will cover in their letter so you can, in turn, ensure that all criteria are covered throughout the recommendation letters.

The cover letter is often the first part of the nomination packet that an Honors Committee reviewer reads. Your cover letter should paint the full picture of your nominee's accomplishments, but does not need to cover every last detail. This should be the nominee's greatest hits, not their entire background.
A good cover letter does not have to be the maximum 10 pages. It should concisely address the award criteria, emphasizing how the nominee excels in each area. Importantly, you should make the letter sound cohesive. This can be difficult because there will likely be multiple people writing or editing the letter. However, please ensure the letter sounds like it is from one voice.

Is your nominee right for the award?
Know the intent of the award and the required nomination components. Read the criteria for each honor and award carefully. Be realistic. These are the nutrition and dietetics profession's top awards. It is a very rigorous and competitive process. If the person or program you have in mind does not meet the stated qualifications, you should not submit a packet. An award will not be bestowed in any given year if nominations do not meet all the criteria.
Complete, well-written, but concise nomination packets are more likely to be successful. Use an active voice when writing.
A peer review process, using very specific, clearly defined scoring criteria, is used to review and rate the honors and awards nominations. Only the information in the nomination packet submitted online is considered. Do not assume the reviewers will know your candidate — you must include all their accomplishments in the nomination packet.
Once again, this process is competitive. Your nomination packet must stand out among all the others that have been submitted if your candidate is to be one of the 30 percent that are selected for the Academy's prestigious national honors and awards. Put yourself in the reviewers' shoes. Your nomination will be judged by dietetics peers. Make sure your nomination clearly describes the uniqueness of your candidate.
Be sure to solicit information from others to strengthen the nomination packet. Also, two heads are better than one — invite some colleagues to give you feedback and other ideas about the accomplishments of your nominee and how you've presented it. Their insights may make your nomination more robust.
Submit objective information to support testimonials or statements made by colleagues whenever possible. Review all nomination materials for consistency before submitting the nomination packet.
Clearly describe how the specific, unique qualifications and contributions of your candidate or program have made a distinct impact on the nutrition and dietetics profession.
Don't wait until the last minute to prepare your nomination packet. Maintain an awards file. Most criteria remain very constant from year to year and changes in procedure are minimal. Gather materials early and allow plenty of time for review. Compile all nomination materials prior to initiating the online nomination process. Though you can "save" what you've done and go back later to complete the packet, it will make your submission process much smoother and hassle-free if you have all the necessary components compiled before you begin.
Keep it brief - check the CV length.
Honors Committee members have many, many nomination packets to review. Don't write a book. Well-written, concise nominations are easier to read than long-winded accounts that are many pages in length. Focus on quality, not quantity. To ensure the committee has the most concise, impactful information about your candidate, any candidate with a CV longer than 25 pages needs to develop a more succinct and readable version for the purpose of this packet submission.
If at first you don't succeed…resubmit!
Many excellent nominations are received annually. Based on the large number of nominations received, only about 30 percent become recipients. Your nominee may not be selected this year. That's okay. As long as you are sure the individual meets all the honor or award qualifications, feel free to submit the packet again next year. The Academy maintains the nomination packets within the online nomination platform. Simply review and update the nomination next year…and resubmit.

Making Sense Of Covid Confusion, Part Three: Solutions And What's Next? | GLA NEWS | Shines A Light On Truth
Making Sense Of Covid Confusion, Part Three: Solutions And What's Next?
If vaccines aren't the answer, what should we do?
There are at least two alternatives to vaccination. The first of these is natural immunity. People who have had a prior Covid infection are over 13 times more resistant to Covid than those who have received vaccinations. This is not to encourage people to go out and deliberately get infected. The intent is to point out that a naturally acquired immunity is far better than anything provided by the current vaccines.
As of right now, it appears that over thirty percent of the US population have had Covid and acquired natural immunity. Many of these people are currently disinclined to get a vaccine they don't need. If vaccination confers immunity as officials claim, then with over 60% of the population vaccinated, we should actually have achieved herd immunity and Covid should not be spreading.
Too many governments have focused on vaccines as a "magic bullet" to stop Covid. Prevention is good, but Covid seems to be good at evading vaccines, and getting better at it. On the other end are therapeutic measures that work to keep people from dying or even having bad symptoms. Drugs such as hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin have demonstrated great effectiveness against Covid in studies across the world. There have been claims that over 80% of Covid deaths could have been prevented by early use of appropriate therapeutic measures. The US, though, has been particularly resistant to approving use of these drugs, despite their long history of safety and widespread use. The fact that if a therapeutic were to be approved then use of the vaccines would have to stop might be a factor. A primary condition of the EUA for vaccines is that there must be no available therapeutic. (21 CFR 360bbb-3(c)(3))
Recently, there have been attempts to ridicule ivermectin as a "horse wormer" and only the ignorant would take such a compound. Actually, it is used for that purpose, and a tube of paste containing 6 grams of ivermectin is readily available over the counter for veterinary use with horses and cows. Ivermectin is also widely available for human use to combat malaria and a variety of other parasites, and is one of the world's most widely used human drugs. Ivermectin doses are based on weight, with adult doses typically in the 20 to 40 milligram range, so someone consuming a tube of the veterinary paste would be getting about a 150 to 200x overdose, but it would be the same substance (with apple flavoring).
Hydroxychloroquine has been disparaged because Donald Trump suggested it might be effective. He was right, but great harm was done by all the media and others who worked to eliminate it from consideration and to eliminate therapeutic measures in general. Doctors have been sanctioned and had their licenses revoked for trying these therapies with consent of their patients. Both the CDC and the FDA have militated against therapies in favor of vaccines, despite the thousands of reports of successful therapies from the rest of the world. For organizations that are supposedly charged with promoting public health, their unwillingness to consider measures that have widely been reported to be effective is difficult to understand.
The Bottom Line – Bringing It All Together
Based on the data, vaccination is not recommended for the following:
pregnant women or women who are working to get pregnant
people who have recovered from a Covid infection
people who have allergies to any of the components of the vaccine
For those who contract Covid
early treatment offers the best chance for full recovery
A Covid diagnosis is far from a death sentence. The vast majority of people will have few or even no symptoms, and early treatment can greatly improve outcomes.
What effect do the vaccines have on fertility? We know that the spike proteins, instead of remaining at the injection site will circulate in the bloodstream, and there is some evidence that they may concentrate in reproductive organs. The vaccines have not been in use long enough to determine what effects there may be on fertility and reproductive competence.
miscarriages – early evidence suggests that miscarriage rates may be higher in vaccinated women. Again, it is too early to tell, and there is little data available.
autoimmune disease – given the way that mRNA vaccines work by "training" the body's own cells to produce spike proteins, there is a chance for development of long term autoimmune effects. Such effects can take years to develop, and the vaccines have not been in use long enough to be able to make a good assessment.
ADE – Antibody Dependent Enhancement is triggered when a vaccinated individual is exposed to a particular antigen, much like in an extreme allergic reaction. Given the early problems with ADE and mRNA vaccines, this must be considered a real possibility for some indefinite time in the future. Developers believe they have correctly tailored the vaccines to avoid an ADE response, but it is possible that the "correct" trigger has not yet been encountered. Some researchers believe they have seen early indications of potential ADE from some of the new Covid variants.
juvenile myocarditis – several cases of myocarditis have been reported in males 16-19 years of age following vaccination. Normally, this is a very rare condition with serious consequences later in life. It is not yet clear why this should be a result of vaccination.
blood clotting – numerous reports of thrombosis (blood clotting) have been reported following vaccination. In some cases, the results can be severe or even lethal. This is a poorly understood effect of the Covid vaccines
transmission through breastfeeding – there are a few anecdotal reports of spike proteins produced by vaccinated mothers being passed to infants in breast milk. At least one infant death has been reported.
high death rates and adverse effects – as of this date there have been 650,075 VAERS reported adverse events and 13,911 deaths resulting from Covid vaccines. These numbers are far greater than for any previous vaccine, and even for all vaccines together over the last thirty years. Due to the voluntary reporting nature of the VAERS system, the actual numbers are likely five times or more greater, and may be as much as a hundred times greater. Any other vaccine generating this many adverse events and deaths would have been halted long before.
long term disabilities – 18,098 people have been reported as permanently disabled as a result of the Covid vaccines.
Even though this article/series has grown lengthy, there is still much more that can be said and much to be clarified. The available information is increasing exponentially, and what was true just a month or two ago is often obsolete today. The rapid spread of variant forms, many with increased resistance to vaccines is of growing concern, and compounded by the growing understanding of the adverse consequences of the vaccines themselves.
A final comment on the recent FDA vaccine approval is warranted.
FDA approval was granted to a vaccine that is not available in the US, but was deceptively represented as fully equivalent to the one subject to EUA conditions. The approval was granted after only eight months of clinical trials when the trials were supposed to last for two years. Approval was granted using data that does not reflect current conditions, especially the reduced effectiveness of the vaccine against the Delta variant.
The approval was given by the FDA administrators without holding a public pre approval review – a review held in almost every other drug and vaccine approval process. At least two top level FDA administrators have resigned in protest of the process. We can only speculate as to why approval was granted. Was there political pressure from above? Did money change hands? Did they sincerely believe they were doing the right thing? We may never know.
In any case, given all the open questions, the vaccine should never have been approved. This misleading approval has lent support to numerous vaccine mandates by officials who think that the approval means that the FDA considers the vaccine safe and effective, just like other approved vaccines. Even our military is now requiring vaccination of all members, despite the evidence that they will lose a number of people to death or disability from the vaccine, not even counting the unknown risk of future ADE.
Clearly, the FDA approval should be withdrawn at least until the original clinical trials are complete and the significant questions have been answered. No approval for "booster" doses should be granted. Unfortunately, the subject has become intensely political with several political figures having staked positions on vaccination. As we well know, almost no politician is willing to admit error, and will continue in a wrong direction until they are removed from power.

The children should be guided by the teacher with identifying, classifying and researching interesting ideas in the different fields of study and are encouraged to question, explore and wonder; which feeds their imaginations.
The image below shows our school in Randburg. To view an authentic Montessori school, click here to book a visit.
There should be an uninterrupted work cycle of no less than 3 hours. It is imperative that the child be given the opportunity to develop his/her concentration through meaningful work, free from adult interruption or intervention. This time should exclude all group activities and extra murals.
In a Montessori classroom, each child is working at his/her own pace within a mixed aged grouping. This allows for natural inclusion of children with special needs as the pace of learning is based on the child’s potential.
Vertical grouping (mixed ages), with at least a three year span between ages. Traditionally Montessori classes are grouped 0-3 years, 3-6 years, 6-9 years, 9-12 years, 12-15 years and 15-18 years. Some schools, due to logistics, may extend the 3-6 age grouping from 2 ½ years or up to 7 year olds.
This implies that there is no separate Grade R or Grade 0 in a Montessori school. The 3-6 class may include children preparing for primary school but they are not separated from the rest of the class.
Developmentally, the children in the older age groups prefer working and interacting with their peers. Here the focus is on smaller groups, co-operative and collaborative learning experiences. Children working at their own pace.
A sense of happiness and peace prevails throughout the school. The children are comfortable in their environment and demonstrate a love of learning.

UK consumer morale hits six-month high in May - Reuters

UK consumer morale hits six-month high in May
LONDON (Reuters) - British consumer sentiment hit a six-month high in May, and a leading business association revised up its growth forecasts for the first time since the financial crisis, adding to hopes that a tentative recovery is underway.
Customers look at a food display in the food hall at a Marks & Spencer shop in central London May 21, 2013. REUTERS/Suzanne Plunkett
Soft data from retailers and manufacturers in the past two weeks had suggested that growth in the second quarter of 2013 might be weaker than initially thought.
But Friday's survey from polling company GfK offered cautious grounds for optimism, with consumer sentiment at its strongest since November, when it spiked to an 18-month high.
GfK's consumer confidence barometer jumped by 5 points to a higher-than-forecast -22, as households became less gloomy about the economy and their own finances.
"There are now some real signs that consumers, while hardly confident, are moving out of the feeling of despondency that the country has been mired in for the last year or so," said Nick Moon, managing director of social research at GfK.
Britain's economy contracted for part of 2012 but grew a stronger than expected 0.3 percent in the first three months of 2013, and purchasing managers' surveys at the start of May pointed to further expansion in the current quarter.
The British Chambers of Commerce - which represents firms employing more than one in five private-sector workers - revised up its quarterly economic forecast on Friday for the first time since Britain entered a recession in 2008.
It now expects growth of 0.9 percent in 2013 and 1.9 percent in 2014, 0.2-0.3 percentage points higher than previously forecast and slightly above the average forecast of economists polled by Reuters earlier this month.
The Bank of England has also revised up its growth forecasts and lowered its inflation outlook for the first time since before the financial crisis.
Both the BCC and GfK warned that the economy remained vulnerable to setbacks.
"Economic growth is still too weak, and the pace of recovery will remain unduly slow for a while yet. We are still a far cry from getting the economy fully back on track," said BCC director-general John Longworth.
Later on Friday, the Bank will release April consumer and business lending data, which is forecast to show a small rise in mortgage approvals, in line with last week's figures from the British Bankers' Association.

Trekking in Bhutan would divert your travel experience to an entirely different aspect. You would get to know how Bhutanese live their life on the most difficult terrains and mountains covered with snows far from the reach of civilized society. For one, it would mean to discover the Hidden Lands of the Himalayan Kingdom and the experiencing those secrets only the daring would get to see firsthand. Trekking in Bhutan is walking miles in the deep forests. It means having to cross the river without bridge and coming across different vegetation covers. As most of the trekking segments are in protected areas, you would also come across a number of wildlife species.

Miyazaki's 'Spirited Away' returns to theaters • The Duquesne Duke
HomeArts & EntertainmentMiyazaki's 'Spirited Away' returns to theaters
Courtesy of Studio Ghibli Originally released in 2001, "Spirited Away" won Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards, the only Japanese film to ever do so.
Originally released in 2001, "Spirited Away" won Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards, the only Japanese film to ever do so.
In celebration of its 15th anniversary, acclaimed Japanese animation studio Studio Ghibli released its seminal classic "Spirited Away"earlier this week to a limited run in select theaters. On Dec. 4, the English-dubbed version was shown while the subbed version ran on Dec. 5.
But what exactly warranted this film's return to theaters? The easiest way to answer that is to simply watch it. "Spirited Away" is beautifully animated, and each frame demonstrates the love and commitment dedicated to producing this wondrous piece of art. Environments are beautifully colored and textured with bits of detail that are easily looked over. One scene that always stands out is when the film's primary setting, the bathhouse, is first shown; the strikingly-red bridge that leads to its ornate doors set against a softly painted sky is always awe-inspiring. One of the last fully hand-drawn, full-length animated movies, "Spirited Away" is in a class of its own when it comes to demonstrating the fullest extent of the medium.
Not only that, but the story is beautiful in its own simplistic way. It follows Chihiro, a whiny and ineffectual girl without the courage of her convictions, as she and her family stumble upon an abandoned fairground. As it turns out, the place is not abandoned, but really a part of the spirit world. Because her parents (ravenously) ate the spirits' food, Chihiro must work in a witch's bathhouse for their freedom.
Chihiro's parents being stuck in the spirit world provides a unique motivation for the hero of any movie, and the plot of a young girl working for her parents' freedom is almost unheard of in children's fantasy. This is not an epic quest or ultimate beast to overcome, but a child's passiveness and a world that is seemingly as apathetic as she is. Her struggle, despite being fantastic, is immediately relatable, and her path to becoming a more confident, free-thinking individual plays out perfectly throughout the film's runtime.
However, all of this great animation and story would be nothing if it were not for the voice actors who really do a spectacular job. Disney has been the champion of Studio Ghibli and Miyazaki here in the West, and their devotion to preserving the writing and delivery of the original film is something to be admired. Having listened to both the Japanese and English dubs of this film, I can say with certainty that "Spirited Away" features some of the best voice acting this industry has to offer.
All of this polish sounds great, but the real reason that this film has endured for so long is its deeper meanings. It is a film-industry trope that violence is universal and that action movies have an audience around the world because everyone understands physical conflict and strife. However, Miyazaki understood that there are other universals that resonate with everyone, regardless of age or nationality. Things like trust and selfishness, charity and repulsion or patience and greed. Virtues and vices are constantly at play in this movie, lending a depth to characters unseen in most media.
There is even a more subtle layer of symbolism underneath the already-superb story, one which accounts for the film's unrivaled success in Japan. Without going too much into detail here, suffice it to say that a film about a younger child working in an ancient bathhouse in order to reverse her parents' gluttony really struck a chord with a country going through a recession.
This emotional impact was clearly well-received at the time. Upon release, "Spirited Away" usurped "Titantic" for highest-grossing film in Japanese history. Stateside, the film was nominated for Best Animated Film in 2003 and won. It has also accrued over $289 million worldwide to date.
All told, it is no wonder then why "Spirited Away" has remained an exemplary film. Time has only been kind to it, and with its anniversary, it is certainly worth recounting how awesome this film was and continues to be.

Red Hat launches OpenShift Service Mesh – Financial News
Red Hat, Inc., the world´s provider of open source solutions, has announced the general availability of Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh to connect, observe and simplify service-to-service communication of Kubernetes applications on Red Hat OpenShift 4, the industry´s most comprehensive enterprise Kubernetes platform, the company said.
While microservices present a transformative option for modern, cloud-native applications, effectively developing and using microservices in production can raise new challenges of implementing and managing inter-service communication. This has led to the development of the service mesh, an underlying infrastructure responsible for traffic management, policy enforcement and service identity and security.
The OpenShift Service Mesh extends these traffic management features by including service observability and visualization of the mesh topology to enhance the service mesh experience. By integrating service mesh natively into the OpenShift Kubernetes platform, developers can improve their implementation of microservice architectures. Platform operations teams can benefit from the ability to enforce IT policies for service security and communication. Users can benefit from normalized environments across datacenters and the cloud through the use of software defined infrastructure built on open source software.

Over the past week I started this blog post over and over in my head but I could not bring myself to start typing. I couldn’t bring myself to write down and publish the idea that I’m more than a little freaked out by all of the changes I’ve gone through recently. Everything came to a head yesterday though and while the exact circumstances are not overly important I will tell you that the event in question made me wonder about my choice to attend grad school. I questioned myself, my ability to succeed, and my personal motivations for picking up my life and moving to Halifax. Thankfully, even though most of my friends and none of my family live on the East Coast I was able to talk through my doubts, fears, and worries with several people.
I want to thank those people for picking up the phone. I want to thank them for distracting me, for loving me, and for believing in me even when I’m scared and lonely.
Yes, I’m scared. Yes, I’m lonely. I suppose I thought I’d avoid homesickness and nostalgia for my undergrad because grad school is cool. Grad school is new and exciting. However, there are things it’s missing, for instance, in my undergrad I had time. I never thought about how in my undergrad I had four years to get to know my classmates. Over those four years I made friends, lost friends, and found new friends. It took me four years to find those people who would stand by me when my mind is a hurricane. It took me four years to realize my mentors were the people I’d been intimidated by at first and then grew to admire. It took me four years to grow into the person I am today. It was not easy. It was not always pretty. My undergrad was full of feelings, fears, family, and friendship.
Somehow, over the summer I forgot about everything that led up to the me of today. Okay, well, maybe I didn’t forget about it but I shelved those experiences. I closed that chapter of my book. To use an analogy I told my mom the other day, everyone around me at Dal, with the exception of one person, is meeting Season 5 Sam. No one else was there for my character development throughout Season 1-4 of my university self. I enjoy the anonymity that meeting new people brings but since I’m only here for a year (at the moment anyway) it makes me a bit nervous. My goals for grad school are to: a) produce a thesis I’m proud of and b) to live my life. The latter means I want to make friends, I want to go running and get to know my new neighbourhood, I want to discover my new campus, I want to attend concerts, conferences, and cons. I want to fit all of that into this one year. It’s a little overwhelming because relationships take time to develop and at times it already feels like time is slipping away from me.
PhD applications are due soon(ish). Grant applications are due sooner. I’ve got presentations, essays, and classes to prep.
It’s scary to be on my own in this way. It’s exhilarating to be on my own in this way. What I’m learning, or reminding myself of, is that it’s going to be okay. It’s all going to be okay. It’s okay to be lonely in grad school. It sucks but it’s okay. It’s okay to be scared. It’s anxiety-inducing at times but it’ll be okay. It’s okay to feel out of your depth. Sometimes I have to stop myself from pinching myself when I’m sitting in a lecture hall because the lectern says ‘Dalhousie University’ and not ‘Carleton University.’ It still confuses me sometimes.
I miss my undergrad cohort (Shoutout to the HUMS CHUMS who’re killing it at school and in the “real world”)! I miss my professors and my mentors.
Throwback to the Discussion Room where I could nap in between writing papers, debating politics, and attending classes.
Despite all of the fear and worry I really like Dal. My program feels like a good fit. My grad cohort is a dynamic group of individuals and I am excited to get to know them better. I am also looking forward to watching Season 5 Sam grow and develop.
Bachelor of Humanities change changes Dal grad school Dalhousie Dalhousie University doubt English at Dal English grad English grad school fear Grad School Halifax MA in English nostalgia Nova Scotia self-doubt worry

British Poetry Revival - Academic Kids
The British Poetry Revival is the general name given to a loose poetic movement in Britain that took place in the 1960s and 1970s. The Revival was a modernist-inspired reaction to the Movement's more conservative approach to British poetry.
6 A treacherous assault on British poetry
7 The 1980s and after
If the Movement poets looked to Thomas Hardy as a poetic model, the poets associated with the British Poetry Revival were more likely to look to modernist models, including the British poets David Jones, Basil Bunting and Hugh MacDiarmid. Although these poets had effectively been written out of official histories of 20th century British poetry, by the beginning of the 1960s a number of younger poets were starting to explore poetic possibilities that the older writers had opened up.
These poets included Roy Fisher, Gael Turnbull, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Bob Cobbing, Jeff Nuttall, Tom Raworth, Michael Horovitz, Eric Mottram, Peter Finch , Edwin Morgan, Jim Burns, Lee Harwood and Christopher Logue. Many of these poets joined Allen Ginsberg and an audience of 7,000 people at the Albert Hall Poetry Incarnation on June 11, 1965 to create what was, effectively, the first British happening.
A number of publishing outlets for this new experimental poetry also began to spring up, including Turnbull's Migrant Press, Raworth's Matrix Press and Goliard Press, Horovitz's New Departures, Stuart Montgomery's Fulcrum Press, Tim Longville's Grosseteste Review, Shearsman, Galloping Dog Press and its Poetry Information magazine, Pig Press, Andrew Crozier and Peter Riley's The English Intelligencer, Crozier's Ferry Press, and Cobbing's Writers Forum. In addition to the poets of the revival, many of these presses and magazines also published avant-garde American and European poetry. The first anthology to present a wide-ranging selection of the new movement was Horovitz's Children of Albion: Poetry of the Underground in Britain (1969).
Thanks in no small part to Writers Forum and its associated writers' workshop, London was a hub for many young poets, including Bill Griffiths, Allen Fisher, Iain Sinclair, Gilbert Adair, Peter Finch,Ulli Freer, Elaine Randell, Maggie O'Sullivan and Denise Riley.
Griffiths writes a poetry of dazzling surface and deep political commitment that incorporates such matter as his professional knowledge of Anglo-Saxon and his years as a Hell's Angel. Both Sinclair and Fisher share a taste for William Blake and an interest in exploring the meaning of place, particularly London, which can be seen in Sinclair's Suicide Bridge and Lud Heat and Fisher's Place sequence of books. O'Sullivan explores a view of the poet as shaman in her work, while Randell and Riley were among the first British women poets to marry feminist concerns with experimental poetic practice.
Griffiths started Pirate Press to publish work by himself and others. Allen Fisher set up Spanner for similar reasons, and Sinclair's early books were published by his own Albion Village Press. Many of these writers participated enthusiastically in performance poetry events, both individually or in groups like Cobbing's Bird Yak and Konkrete Canticle. Eric Mottram was a central figure on the London scene, both for his personal and professional knowledge of the Beat generation writers and his abilities as a promoter and poet.
At Easter, 1967 the MacSweeney organised the Sparty Lea Poetry Festival. This was a ten-day session of reading, writing and discussion (and no little drinking). The participants, including the Pickards, MacSweeney, Andrew Crozier, John James, John Temple, Pete Armstrong, Tim Longville, Peter Riley, John Hall, J. H. Prynne and Nick Waite, stayed in a group of four cottages in the village of Sparty Lea. This was to be a pivotal event in the British Poetry Revival, bringing together poets who were separated geographically and in terms of poetic influences and encouraging them to support and publish each other's work.
MacSweeney felt close to the Cambridge poets. These were a group centred around J. H. Prynne and included Andrew Crozier, John James, Douglas Oliver, Veronica Forrest-Thomson, Peter Riley, Tim Longville and John Riley. Prynne was influenced by Charles Olson and Crozier was partly responsible for Carl Rakosi's return to poetry in the 1960s. The New York school were also an important influence for many of the Cambridge poets. The Grosseteste Review, which published these poets, was originally thought of as a kind of magazine of British Objectivism.
The Cambridge poets in general wrote in a cooler, more measured style than many of their London or Northumbrian peers and many of them taught at Cambridge University.
In the 60s and early 70s Peter Finch ran the No Walls Poetry readings and the ground breaking inclusive magazine, second aeon. Finch was an associate of Bob Cobbing and acted as a Welsh outpost for the poetry revival. He began Oriel Books in Cardiff in 1974 and the shop served as a focal point for young Welsh poets. However, some of the more experimental poets in Wales were not of Welsh origins. Two of the most important expatriate poets operating in Wales were John Freeman and Chris Torrance. Freeman is another British poet influenced by the Objectivists, and he has written on both George Oppen and Niedecker. Torrance has expressed his debt to David Jones. His ongoing Magic Door sequence is widely regarded as one of the major long poems to come out of the Revival.
Although published by Writers Forum and Pirate Press, Geraldine Monk is very much a poet of the North of England. Like Maggie O'Sullivan, she writes for performance as much as for the page and there is an undercurrent of feminist concerns in her work.
A treacherous assault on British poetry
In 1971, a large number of the poets associated with the British Poetry Revival joined the Poetry Society and elected a council to represent them. The society had been traditionally hostile to modernist poetry, but under the new council this position was reversed. Eric Mottram was made editor of the society's magazine Poetry Review. Over the next six years, he edited twenty issues that featured most, if not all, of the key Revival poets and carried reviews of books and magazines from the wide range of small presses that had sprung up to publish them.
In the late 1970s, in response to the number of foreign poets being featured in Poetry Review, the Poetry Society dissolved the editorial board of the magazine, describing their activities as "a treacherous assault on British poetry".
A number of younger poets, many of whom who first found an outlet in Poetry Review under Mottram, began to emerge around the end of the 1970s. In London, Robert Shepherd, Wendy Mulford and Ken Edwards were among those who were to the fore. These, and others, met regularly at Gilbert Adair's Subvoicive reading series. Edwards ran Reality Studios, a magazine that helped introduce the L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poets to a British readership and ran Reality Street editions with Mulford. In the Midlands, Tony Baker's Figs magazine focused more on the Objectivist and Bunting inspired poetry of the Northumbrian school while introducing a number of new poets.
In 1988 an anthology called The New British Poetry was published. It featured a section on the Revival poets edited by Mottram and another on the younger poets edited by Edwards. In 1987, Crozier and Longville published their anthology A Various Art, which focused mainly on the Cambridge poets, and Iain Sinclair edited yet another anthology of Revival-related work Conductors of Chaos (1996).
This last featured another aspect of the Revival; the recovery of neglected British modernists of the generation after Bunting. Poets like David Gascoyne, W. S. Graham and Nicholas Moore have been reappraised and returned to their rightful place in the history of 20th century British poetry. Another interesting development was the establishment of the British and Irish poetry discussion list by Richard Caddel. This continues to provide a forum for discussion and the exchange of news on experimental British poetry. Caddel, together with Peter Quartermain edited the most recent anthology to cover the field, Other: British and Irish Poetry since 1970 (1999).

Interview With Daniel Kajmakoski – ESCape News
Interview With Daniel Kajmakoski
He made a big expectation in Balkans at the beginning of his Eurovision journey, he reached the trophy of X Factor Adria with his mentor and old representative of Serbia, Željko Joksimović. Yes, we are talking about the representative of Macedonia, Daniel Kajmakoski. We got a chance to do a special interview with him.
-How do you feel for representing your country on the biggest stage in Europe?
-I didn't believe what happened to me at first, I'm proud and I hope to the best success. It's a great honour that I'll be the representative of my country on ESC.
-Did you speak with Željko Joksimović after Skopje fest? What he thinks about your song and performance? And did he suggest you something for there?
-I'm so grateful that I had the opportunity to work with him, I really learned a lot from him, especially the most important thing in this work- that it's really hard and that you have to stay focused and to trust yourself. We're both very busy. He lives in Serbia, I travel all the time, so unfortunately we don't have a lot of time to see each other.
-You are big star after X Factor Adria, and people in Macedonia, even the other parts of Balkan, everybody trust you and your song. Are you under stress because of the responsibility?
-Responsibility is definitely huge and I'm learning to fight with stress, and I'm trying to win it. I'm better in it and I'm more and more sure in myself. Stress is a thing common for this job.
-Are you happy because they call you: "New Toše" in your country, or you want to be mentioned by your own style?
-It's a great honour to be called like that, and compare me with such a big star from the same area where I'm coming. Still, I'm Danijel Kajmakoski and I hope that I'll make my style and that I'll leave my mark in the job I do. Toše is one and only.
-X Factor Adria is a competition held on whole Balkan, but competitors were mostly from Serbia.
How you felt when you were on the stage with Macedonian flag?
I can't compare that feeling with anything, maybe with a feeling when I jumped out from a plane, or bungee jump, a feeling of completely freedom but in the same time and fullness, pride and pleasure. Undescribable.
-How Željko affected on you and your career?
-Željko is a great man and he always tries to help me whenever I need help. I'm really grateful to him, first of all for being my mentor and then on the cooperation after X Factor.
-What advantages life in Vienna brings you?
-Vienna is my city, I grew up there, educated myself, I lived everything what every young man lives. I love Vienna and I love to live there, first of all, because all of my family is there and man feels the best when he is with his family.
-In which language will you record your Eurovision song? What's your goal on that stage: "to be in final or among first 10, etc?
-I'll perform song in English, but of course that it will be recorded in a couple more languages. It wouldn't be modest if I would say that I hope that I'll win, but I can say that I hope that it will be how it's supposed to be. The best one should win.
-I followed whole season X Factor Adria even from Turkey. So, what's your favourite performance, except yours? And beside you, who's your winner?
-All of my friends who I performed with are favourite to me, because we really became close friends during these couple months of common work. That's why I wouldn't separate anyone.
-Is this your final version of the song or you'll make new arrangement?
-We're working on new version of the song, I can't say anything else for now… 🙂
-What kind of surprises are waiting for us in Vienna? Did you plan to do something on the stage?
-Because it's a surprise, it should stay like that, but there will definitely be (surprises). When I would describe my performance in forward, no one would be surprised.

That, my dear fellow they are not. They are definitely the right thing - I too jumped a bit when I saw full sheets framed - take a look at what Indahnesia has to offer on ebay.
I'm also pretty sure that they aren't worth a great deal - just the interest of having unfranked, uncut stamps from that time that have been "sleeping" for over 40 years.
Try taking a good hi-res, up-close pic (and lose the glass panel) of at least a couple of the Asian Games stamps. They're not easy to see, and I want to take a good look at them.
JP/With simple reforms, RI can grab 41st spot in Doing Business survey | Forums and Chat for Indonesia's English-speaking community
JAKARTA (JP): Without discouraging reforms on more complex platforms, the World Bank has said that by simply cutting bureaucratic red tape, Indonesia could significantly improve its position in the "DoingBusiness" survey next year.
"Potentially, Indonesia could jump to the 41st rank. It is a theoretical exercise, but it indicates that a lot can be done just by simply cutting red tape and not very complicated regulatory reforms," World Bank Doing Business 2008 researcher and spokesperson Sylvia Solf said in Jakarta on Wednesday.
Earlier in September, the WB released the Doing Business 2008 report, where Indonesia ranked 123rd out of the 178 countries surveyed, up from 135th last year.
The report, the fifth in an annual report series by the World Bank and its private sector development arm, the International Finance Corporation, ranks the best places to do business worldwide. (Andi Haswidi)
For the last few days we have had great thunderstorms. When i drove back from Montana on Sunday we had a great one come through the Sierra’s and i managed to catch a part of it out at Benton Crossing. The grey mass was large enough that i saw it all the way at Tonopah, it was one big cloud. Of course it wouldn’t be complete without some great lightning, combined with some thunder to produce a good spring storm. A couple quick shots and a simple conversion to make a few images.

Hiss mission volunteers find helping others 'is time well spent' [Loch Raven]
On Sunday, June 16, fifteen congregants from Hiss United Methodist Church packed up cars with suitcases and supplies and headed off to Tennessee. But not for a vacation. They were members of Hiss' VIM - Volunteers in Mission and their destination was Murfreesboro, Tenn., where, as part of a Habitat for Humanity team, they would do repair work on the homes of two families.
The volunteers, Joel Artes, Haley Ansell, Ken Cody, Michelle Cody, Wayne Definbaugh, Sandy Dowell, Sue Jacobs, Bob Jagoe, Carol Jagoe, Sue Ann Lund, Marc Miller, Frank Pakacki, and Jean Sortino did the much-needed work .
At the first home, they built a brick step in front of the shed, installed window screens and blinds on nine windows, installed baseboards throughout the entire house, caulked and did touch-up painting as well as cleaning debris from the yard and installing a privacy fence.
At the second home, similar work was needed.
The week was very productive. Group leader Carol Jagoe summarized, "Taking some time away from our busy lives to spend time making someone else's life a little better, is time well spent!"
In addition to working, the group also found time to enjoy the local barbecue restaurants and to visit with the family and see the home that had been their project the prior year.
Other mission trips the church has scheduled this summer include a week in Barahona, Dominican Republic; the Baltimore County Christian Work Camp; and Camp Joy Youth Work Camp.
There's a new Lion's Club in the area. It meets in room 105 at Hiss United Methodist Church, 8700 Harford Road ,on the first and third Monday at 6:30 p.m. Lion's Club is the world's largest service club organization with 1.35 million members and 46,000 clubs, according to their website. They boast of doing whatever volunteer service is needed in the community and welcome new members.
The new club at Hiss is trying to locate members of the former Lions Club that met at Hiss for 50 plus years before closing. If you were involved in the club that met at Hiss or are interested in the current club, please contact the church with your information at 410-668-5665.
YuJung Hwang and DaeSung Park were both commissioned as provisional elders of the United Methodist Church during the annual Baltimore Washington Conference of The United Methodist Church held in May of this year. The organization's website explains, "To be commissioned a Provisional Elder, one must have several years of study and be approved by the local church, district and conference Boards of Ordained Ministry. He or she makes a three-year commitment and covenant to the Church to serve while continuing to learn and develop their faith."
For the last four years, they have spent time at Hiss United Methodist Church where they were mentored as they pursued their vocations. Starting in July, Dae Sung Park will serve at Bethany Korean Mission in Ellicott City and YuJung Hwang at Alpha Community Korean Mission in Washington, DC. Hiss congratulated the new pastors and sent them off with well wishes at the end of last month.
Immaculate Heart of Mary Church will hold a blood drive Thursday, July 11 from 1-7 p.m. in Cartwright Hall. For information, call Gary Brown at 410-663-4357
Community children are invited to Arnolia United Methodist Church Everywhere Fun Fair vacation Bible School program that will be held July 7-12 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Children will learn about various Biblical characters as well as how people in Japan, Zimbabwe, the United Kingdom, Australia and Mexico welcome visitors to their countries. A variety of activities including crafts, music, sand tories will help the kids in their studies. The program will conclude with a fun fair for entire family on Friday evening. Parents can get additional information or register their kids for the free program by calling the church office at 410-665-7005.

THE DARK TOWER (director: John Harlow; screenwriters: based on the play by George S. Kaufman & Alexander Woollcott/Reginald Purdell/Brock Williams; cinematographer: Otto Heller; editor: Terence Fisher; music: Jack Beaver; cast: Ben Lyon (Phil Danton), Anne Crawford (Mary), David Farrar (Tom Danton), Herbert Lom (Steven Torg), Josephine Wilson (Dora Shogun), William Hartnell (Jimmy Towers, PR man), Frederick Burtwell (Willie Wainwright, ringmaster), Elsie Wagstaffe (Eve Wainwright), J.H. Roberts (Dr. Wilson); Runtime: 93; MPAA Rating: NR; producer: Max Milder; WB; 1943-UK)
"The entertaining crime drama is set in a traveling British circus."
Shot by Warner Brothers in their London Teddington Studio, during the war, as part of their Brit quota films. It was produced by Warner Brothers' British company, First National, and was not released in America until 2007 when shown on TV. The entertaining crime drama is set in a traveling British circus that's struggling to survive and as a last resort hires a tramp hypnotist for a novelty act on the high wire. He reverses the box-office slump, but because of his creepy arrogance causes bad vibes among the circus folks and gets involved in a love triangle that results in his criminal behavior.
It's the third English speaking film for the Prague-born noted character actor Herbert Lom, who was 26 at the time. Playing the villain and stealing the acting honors, paved the way for Lom's future movie success. John Harlow ("Green Fingers"/"The Blue Parrot"/"Dangerous Cargo") directs the B-film in a workmanlike way, as writers Reginald Purdell and Brock Williams adapt to the screen the play by George S. Kaufman & Alexander Woollcott.
Phil Danton (Ben Lyon) and his brother Tom (David Farrar) are co-owners of a struggling traveling circus, with Phil running the business side and Tom the artist side as he partners with his girlfriend Mary (Anne Crawford) in a trapeze act. When a lion escapes, a drifter, looking for circus work named Torg (Herbert Lom), hypnotizes the wild beast and lures him back in his cage. It results in his hiring. Torg hypnotizes the agreeable Mary to make her trapeze act more daring and thereby possibly saving the circus. Box-office success follows. But when Torg bullies his way into a partnership with the brothers and then becomes obsessed with Mary as a girlfriend, it becomes too much for the jealous Tom. Torg gains complete control over Mary, and wishing to remove Tom from the picture causes her to let Tom purposefully fall from the high wire during their act. It results in Tom being hospitalized. By this time, Phil realizes he made a mistake in hiring the evil drifter and consults a psychiatrist (J.H. Roberts) to see how he can prevent the hypnotist from controlling Mary's mind. The shrink says only Torg's death will break his spell over Mary.
For comedy relief, there's the boozing ringmaster (Frederick Burtwell) and his nagging wife (Elsie Wagstaffe). Josephine Wilson plays the circus sharp-shooter, who senses from the beginning that Torg is bad news. William Hartnell plays the PR man.
It concludes without an imaginative climax and at times the melodramatics seemed heavy-handed, but there are enough thrills and circus atmosphere to keep things always watchable.

Hi gentleman, I am here to critique your work.
Blue327 : Everything about this, from execution to presentation, is incredibly pleasing to the eye. The point to which I'd like to harp on a bit is the fact that you took a familiar "look" and made it your own, really made it ''own itself''. The chinese influence is very strong, but it's great how you used the aesthetics of the culture in ways that both pay homage and put a spin on it (ie., we've seen stuff like that before, but you exaggerate their usage/use the look in a nontraditional way.)
The quality of rendering is spot on. I especially love your use of realistic texture of silk and fabric- Its subtle enough to enhance instead of overpower the strong flat colors you used, and is of especially beautiful effect on the Maiden. The silhouettes are sharp, easily read, and they fit together perfectly with your use of repeating shapes and lines.
This is one of the most complete and appealing works I've seen posted on Anatomicae since I've started modding here, so mad props. You came up with a beautiful image that clearly shows your design chops.
ScalC : It's great to see you come into this challenge because it's a big change from your other offerings on the board so far- And you jump the gap between environmental work and asset design extremely well. Best part of it is that the quality of your rendering and style is still -very- strong...This is definitely a ScalC piece, and a strong one at that. The cool thing about your work is that you can see some definite rendering chops paired with your expert use of existing texture. The rendering on the horns of the demon, though a relatively small detail, is something that immediately caught my eye. It's interesting to see an artist utilize so many different approaches in bringing together a piece- you've got everything from flat geometric line work, to flat swaths of color, to sharp rendering and texture. The set in and of itself is successful, however, because you maintained a few very important pieces thoroughout- the use of repeating color across the three masks and the repeated use of that oblong oval ties them together very nicely. It's also cool to see you use such a shape: Working with ovals can be especially hard because of the inherent symbology behind it (there's a reason why the maiden mask is so successful in its femininity), but it's fun to watch you play with proportion and with cutting into the existing shape to bring the mask together in ways that fit the theme. The use of white lines guide the eye and show a great subtlety and sense of humor.
I would encourage you to be bold with your color choices. Throughout your work you love to use deep reds, russets, browns and yellows- It's a great palette, but you may have fun pushing yourself to pick some out-of-this-world colors and trying to slot them into your normally very-realistic color notes. Of course here the palette works, however, because it's a pretty firm anchor to keep the series somewhat realistic while it dabbles in the fantastic with its shapes and forms. Either way it's a very good piece. Keep up the great work.
DanOrtega: Sorry for the long wait Dan I enjoy your mask set because it demonstrates a real sense of humor and wit. You seem unafraid of playing with proportion and charicature, which is a great thing. Your maiden mask is particularly successful on many different levels- It is well-rendered, demonstrates good color choices, and looks entirely functional as a mask. The level of detail you put into it with the straps, rivets, and seams is really fantastic, and you managed very well in having something as inorganic as metal express the personality the mask represents. The old man mask is charming, and you have some nice texture work in there (the strongest out of the three.) The demon mask for me presents a bit of confusion in that it almost seems more like a character than an object- which is not to say it doesn't work, but you created it out of some very organic materials and painted them in such a way that makes the mask look more alive than anything.
As a set each stands pretty strongly as its own individual piece. I would encourage you to experiment more with bright colors and keep pursuing that great stylized look (it isn't ''cartoony'', but its bold and simplified in a very strong way.) Take care to incorporate texture into your pieces (as you did with the old man), and don't let them steal the show from your rendering and color. I do hope you participate in more challenges! Hopefully next time we won't have to be such kerfuffles about due dates :c

As you may be able to tell, it was a long time since I visited this post... nevertheless I didnt want to pass as ungrateful.
Thank you so much for your critique, it has helped me to see details in my work, and hopefully guide me in the right direction.
P.S. The "demon" mask is based on actual masks that are produced in Mexico, although sadly its an art in extinction. They are usually made to represent the sins and the devil, as well as ancient deities, and they usually have some deep symbolism. They are commonly made of wood, and often the details are made of stone, hay, animal hair and even bone. Hope you find this interesting!

I have done 5-6 testovis only cycles in the past two years and my buddy did the same.. we both experienced not real lethargy but a little sluggish after the first weeks. The first weeks feeling like lions and then a little sluggish. My buddy also experienced some libido drops... We tried proviron and aromasin.. but we did not notice many changes... I have read lots of threads and found that it could be cortisol?? or shbg too high??? too low water intake??? anybody have any idea thoughts?
08-22-2012, 11:22 AM mich29 normally i would say your suppressed after about 5-6weeks of test running.how much were you guys running how much sleep were you getting,what was your calorie intake,what was your workouts like? could have been quite a few factors
08-26-2012, 07:17 AM francesco 400/500 mg/week, were getting 5-6 hours sleep at night, and calorie intake was different from each others.. mine was quite high around 3000/4000(lots of fats and carbs) and his was around 2000/2500. Different workout regimen as well. I was doin heavy weights and lots of cardio.. my buddy much lighter lifting and very little cardio. same feelin' sluggish!

Well there's 2 possible problems IMO. 5-6 hours of sleep is not enough sleep and could account for sluggishness. Or the gear that you got could be bad
08-26-2012, 03:03 PM francesco gear comes right out of drugstore, so I don't think thats an issue..
08-27-2012, 07:04 PM Sleazy E try to get some more rest and make sure you are eating enough to grow. if you dont see any gains and you still feel lethargic than your gear is most likely bunk. Where do you live? It wouldnt be the first time a pharmacy sells bunk gear in some countries.
09-18-2012, 06:05 AM francesco ok so maybe this could be the answer, or at least part of the equation and would make perfect sense! ANABOLIC STEROID USAGE AND THYROID SUPPRESSION Patrick Arnold [...] Bodybuilders who use large amounts of anabolic steroids often report lethargy as a side effect. Sleepiness, irritability, and foggy-headness are commonly reported by users of some of the more powerful anabolic steroids in large dosages. The cause of this lethargy has been the subject of debate in the performance-enhancement drug community, and the solution may be multifactorial. Published studies have given reason to suspect that thyroid hormone suppression may be one of these factors. THYROID HORMONES There are two major thyroid hormones, T4 and T3. T3 is considered the most active thyroid hormone, and its job is to act as a sort of ter regulator of every major aspect of metabolism- from protein thesis to carbohydrate and fat oxidation. T3 acts in general as a metabolic stimulator, and in addition to its influence on how the uses fuel for energy and tissue building, it also works to generate heat production (thermogenesis) via enhancement of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP-1) expression in the liver. The production of too much thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism) and too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) are both undesirable conditions. Hyperthyroidism leads to overstimulation of the nervous system (resulting in elevated heart rate and nervousness), as well loss of lean body mass due to protein catabolism. Hypothyroidism; the other hand, leads to depression and fatigue, as well as other symptoms such as joint pain, sensitivity to cold, and fat gain. ANABOLIC STEROIDS AND THYROID SUPPRESSION As I stated in my introduction, published studies have confirmed that anabolic steroid use can suppress thyroid hormone levels in the blood. It appears that this is not due so much to a decrease in the production of the main thyroid hormone (T4) in the thyroid gland, however. What really is the culprit of the suppression is debatable, as different studies have found different things. Two things are clear, though. The levels of total and free active thyroid hormone (T3) are decreased with anabolic steroid use, and T4 thyroid hormone-binding globulin levels are markedly elevated. However, free T4 appears to be unchanged, as does TSH, which is the hormone that your brain produces to stimulate thyroid hormone production in the thyroid gland. So what is happening is not entirely clear. It may be a combination of disrupted conversion of T4 to T3 and/or interference of bioavailable T4 levels by excessive T4 thyroid hormone-binding globulin. Whatever the case, levels of the active thyroid hormoneT3 can be suppressed by anabolic steroid use- particularly at higher dosages. Such suppression can interfere with maximum muscle growth from a cycle, as optimal protein synthesis activity is dependent upon ideal T3 levels in the body. It is interesting to note that bodybuilders have discovered by trial and error that thyroid hormone supplementation leads to greater gains during a cycle. I am pretty sure that this anecdotal discovery was made without the knowledge that AAS (anabolic-androgenic steroid) usage is thyroid suppressive. « Cutting and strength cycle for MMA - Low dose test, EQ, anavar.

Maybe, MJ saw something that left him know her being the mother of his kids would have been a big mistake, but then again he needn’t have worried it was never gonna happen. She didn’t want his kids.
3. Tanya: in the tapes that MJ did with Shmuley he said he regretted not having sex with Brooke Shields when she once came on to him sexually… he never said that he regretted not having kids with LMP he said it was LMP who had regretted it wanted him back & regretted not having kids with him… not the other way around! I think you kinda got it mixed up. True MJ did want a big family but not with her after they divorced
Unfortunately the marriage didn’t work but they were so beautiful together! Sad to say Lisa Marie is a Scientologist I think and that’s a dead end street a very sick cult. Michael was not stupid enough to get involved with that destructive cult..she should have given Scientology up long ago and it might have made a positive difference in the outcome of their relationship.. perhaps I’m misinformed and she’s changed by now..
God bless Debbie! I will admit it had to be a terrible blow to her so called ego for MJ to serve her warning.
She still didn’t. She chased him promising kids, no doubt slept with him. What happened? She was showing the nurse.
You have a good point. When Lm chased him around the globe. He didn’t leave his wife and he didn’t have kids with LM. He said in the tapes that he had closed it heart to it. I take it to mean he closed his heart to her also.
