Hello, once again! Now, unfortunately, for the last time.
The semester has flown by, especially my time in Spanish in the Community. I'd just like to close the semester with some highlights from my experience with S.O.A.R.
My favorite thing, by far, has been getting to know my student. Over the months, I've learned how he learns best, where his strengths lie, and what he likes to do. I know that mental math is not his strong suit, but he almost always gets the right answer if he just writes out the problem. He reads very well in both Spanish and English, but he understands the story better if he reads it in Spanish.
So, there have been really rewarding experiences for which I'm truly grateful, but that's not to say it's all been fun and easy. I know I've outlined some challenges in previous posts, but this week, during my last day volunteering, I probably faced my biggest one.
I feel like everyone that is volunteering for other organizations, like the Refugee Center, has more difficult situations to deal with. All I have to do is talk to kids who don't care if I make mistakes or don't know all the words. Yesterday, however, I was doing some extra hours and helping some of the S.O.A.R. kids, including my student, take a survey for Abriendo Caminos. I stayed until all of the students were picked up after school except for mine, whose family wasn't showing up. So I was left with my student and the non-Spanish-speaking director of the program.
Long story short, I was expected to call my student's parent and make sure she was going to be able to pick him up. I understood very little of what she was saying, but I did my best to relay the message. I honestly do not feel like I did a good job at all. However, it's a learning experience, and it was definitely good practice, so I don't regret having the opportunity to make a fool of myself on the phone. :)
Become more comfortable with Spanish. Wellthat I've made lots of improvements with my speaking skills. I'm now more willing to talk in Spanish in public, when before, even that was a feat.
Make a difference. So, I know that I can't change someone's life drastically through two hours a week, but I know that my being there every week to work with my student had an impact. I might not see it explicitly, but I still feel like I've done something for the community.

The Smart Approach to Tee Box Renovations
Manage tee box renovation with minimal play disruption and impact to budget.
Think about it — everything begins on the tees. That’s where your guests and members first encounter your course. The extent to which the tee surface is firm and level and well turfed not only determines their first impression, it also sets expectations for their play experience.
But tee boxes, especially given their footprint-to-foot traffic ratio, undergo a lot of wear and tear. So, what is the lifespan of a tee box?recommends tee boxes be replaced every 15 years or so, possibly even sooner for courses whose tee box areas are insufficient for the amount of annual course play.
The question for many — if not all — club managers and superintendents is when and how to m Read on for our experts’ advice.
Schedule Wisely and Use Specialists
There’s a lot that goes into tee box renovation and building it into your annual budget and schedule is a smart approach. Many clubs plan on renovating two to three tee complexes per year so they can better manage course playthese renovation projects.
Given tee box renovation involves everything from sod stripping to tilling to adding mix (if necessary) to laser leveling and sod laying, most clubs opt to bring in specialists for better results and costs. For example, laser leveling requires specialized equipment and, in certain states, clubs can save on taxes by having the company from which the sod was bought lay the sod.
Still, no matter how you choose to do it, tee box renovation takes time and money. Costs can range from $1.50 per square foot for warm season turf to $2.50 per square foot for cool season turf. As for timing, count on about three weeks from start to finish: five days of work for every 10,000 square feet undergoing renovation and two or more weeks after the work has been done for the tee to be playable.
Keep Play Going
Probably one of the biggest challenges clubs face is keeping play going around the work. Again, the planning that goes into this needs to be a part of the schedule. Talk to your superintendent and greens committee well ahead of time and find a suitable area near the tee complex that can serve as the tee area temporarily. Make sure it’s level and begin mowing it down about two weeks prior to use for optimum play.
Finally, keep these three guidelines from our experts in mind when planning tee renovations:
- Work with your superintendent to create a long-term tee renovation program and stick to it. It will pay off.
- Make sure your tee surface is large enough for the amount of play on your course and that the turf you’re using can stand up to the expected use. The United States Golf Association (USGA) recommends 100 square feet of usable tee area for every 1,000 rounds of annual play.
- Go for transparency. Hiring a contractor to undertake your renovations may seem like a time-saver but it could cost you in terms of mark-up fees on subs versus contracting directly with the specialists you need to get the job done. Additionally, a contractor may or may not be invested in ensuring the long-term success of your renovation. Choose your partners wisely.
Whatever you do, keep in mind your tee boxes are your guests’ and members’ introduction to your course. Keep them high quality and make those first impressions count.

Eve publication were carried out only quite recently by Spanish writer and artist Xavier Romero-Frias, at a time when that ancestral worldview was quickly disappearing.sh. Aan anthropomorphic origin according to Maldive lore.[2] The coconut tree occupies a central place in the present-day Maldive national emblem.
These myths tell that the end of the Maldives will be a great catastrophe where the islands will be submerged by the surrounding ocean. Similar myths are found in the Andaman Islands as well as in the Nicobar Islands.
The origin of Malé
The first settlers in the Maldive Islands were Dravidian people from the nearest coasts, which are in the Indian Subcontinent and coastal Ceylonits inhabitants were removed) considered the first settlers, claim ancestry from the ancient Tamil people.
One dayto Malé Atoll sailing from the nbAs time went by the local islanders accep Malé, while the nearest island was named Hulhu-le (Hulhulé).
The Maldivian spirits can take human form, even if it is not known whether they have a human origin or not. While in human shape, the malevolence of those spirits is often masked by beauty and youth. Certain Maldivian evil spirits (handi) have the appearance of charming, beautiful women. These stories about female spirits have their origin in the ancient Dravidian mother-goddess worship and they point to the ethnic origin of the Maldive people.
Other evil spirits which are the subject of many folk stories in the Maldives (furēta) are crude monsters coming from the ocean waters. The tales about sea monsters are part of the local cultural background, which is characterized by the oceanic environment in which, along the millennia, the Maldivian culture developed.
Among the stories in which the spirit and sorcery theme are not essential, the most significant is perhaps Don Hiyalā and Alifulhu. This story about two good-looking lovers is a much distorted Maldivian version of the Rāmāyana. Despite the apparent dissimilarities, the common sequential structure linking the elements of the Maldivian story with the Indian epic (the heroic married couple, the wicked and powerful king, the kidnapping of the beautiful heroine, etc.) is obvious. This parallelism between Don Hiyalā and Alifulhu and the Rāmāyana is hardly unexpected, for all South and Southeast Asian countries have local Rāmayāna variations and the Maldives is definitely part of the South Asian cultural sphere.
Folktales where fishes, crabs and seabirds are the heroes, like the tales about Mākana, Findana, Kalhubondage Diye, Fandiyaaru Kakuni, or Don Mohonaai Miyaru, introduce us to the world of the local fauna of the Maldive Atolls, where land animals are very few. Many of these are tales for children and some are still quite popular. Although most of the stories of this type are original, a few are foreign tales or fables which have been adapted to the island context through local storytellers or by Maldivian learned men, like the late Muhammad Jamil.
In the ancestral oral literature of Maldivians, the sorcerer, or learned man of the island who knew the magic arts. Magic or sorcery is known in Maldives as fanḍita.
The Maldivian sorcerer or fanḍita man is always portrayed in the folklore of Maldivians as a hero. Only he knew how to appease the spirits that terrified the average island folk on a daily (or better nightly) basis. Some recent stories tend to cast the sorcerer in the role of a villain, but these are totally disconnected from the ancestral Maldive lore.
The Maldivian folklore contains legends about sage Vashishta. Vashishta is known locally as Oditan Kalēge, a mighty sorcerer. Oditan Kalēge's wife is a beautiful woman called Dōgi Aihā who possesses a fiery temperament and who is a powerful sorceress as her husband. Her name is derived from the Sanskrit word yogini.
According to the well-known Moroccan traveler Ibn Batuta, the person responsible for converting the Maldivians to Islam was a Sunni Muslim visitor named Abu al Barakat ul Barbari. He subdued Ranna Ma King to become a Muslim.
mention that this saint was actually a Persian from the city of Tabriz, called Yusuf Shamsud-din. He is also locally known as Tabrīzugefānu.[9] The much venerated tomb of this saint now stands on the grounds of Hukuru Miski, in the centre of Malé, the capital.
Since there are a great number of islands in the Maldives, many folkstories have different versions according to the particular island and the storyteller in question. In recent times some stories have been abridged by contemporary Maldivian writers, like Abdulla Sadiq or Ahumadu Sharīfu (Maradū) because of their extreme length.
Other stories (Karukuru, Telabagudi and the Māmeli tales) have been sanitized, because there was much casual reference to defecation and bodily fluids, particularly in ancient folk-stories from the outer atolls, where local values found this acceptable.
The Koimala myth
Koimala Siri Mahaabarana Mahaa Radun (Dhivehi: ކޮއިމަލާ ސިރީ މަހާބަރަނަ މަހާ ރަދުން) or Koimala (Dhivehi: ކޮއިމަލާ literally "flower lad") or Koimala Kalo (Dhivehi: ކޮއިމަލާ ކަލޯ, literally "Lord Koimala") is a myth about the first king of all the Maldive Islands. Some versions of the Koimala myth claim that it refers to the first ruler of the Maldives after the conversion to Islam, also known as Dharumavantha rasgefaanu, who ruled from 1117 to 1141. It is believed that he was also the first king from the House of Theemuge and the Lunar Dynasty. By other accounts he was the fourth king of the Lunar Dynastry originally founded by King Balaadeettiya as the Soma Vansa Kingdom; although until Koimala the house only ruled over part of the Maldives.
However, ascribing the legend to the first Islamic ruler does not explain who built the large Buddhist monuments that are present in many inhabited islands and that were built in the first millennium AD. It also leaves without explaining the existence of an ancient kingly dinasty in the Maldives already before the conversion, as the 12th century correspondence from the king to the Sangumanun, or community of Buddhist monks, in Sathudhuvumati (Haddummati Atoll) via copper plates proves.
According to Maldivian Folklore, Koimala was a prince from the Indian subcontinent who arrived in Malé Atolnorthern p Since then Malé has been the seat of the Maldivian crown and now the head of state.

Abstract: This paper introduces a method developed by Honeywell named Clustered ARAIM, which drastically reduces the number of sub-solutions that needs to be computed, compared to the baseline ARAIM algorithm developed by the EU/US Working Group C, without degrading the algorithm performance (in terms of computed protection levels). It consists in grouping individual satellites into so-called clusters. Removing a cluster (or their combination) then covers multiple fault modes at once. Depending on the number of satellites, constellations, and clusters per each constellation, the reduction in the sub-solution count is at least an order of magnitude. However, the performance in terms of the protection levels remains comparable. The paper provides a summary of the algorithm, including certain technical aspects such as the distribution of individual satellites into clusters and optimization of sub-solution characteristics computation, as well as a comparison in terms of computational demands and performance with the standard ARAIM algorithm. The proposed algorithm was implemented in Honeywell dual frequency GPS/Galileo prototype. This paper will show the results from a large number of tests conducted in a representative environment with the aforementioned prototype. These tests include lab tests using a GNSS simulator and live signals as well as flight tests. Large number of simulated scenarios were created in order to assess the capability of the algorithm to detect different type of faults: single satellite faults, multiple simultaneous satellites faults, and constellations faults. The results show that the Clustered ARAIM algorithm provides equal performance compared to the standard ARAIM while requiring considerably less computational power.

Ratfolk assassins and other ninjas with an affinity for gunpowder demonstrate masterful control of bombs, using the explosives to inflict major damage or impair their foes.
At 2nd level, a gunpowder bombardier can expend 1 ki point to throw a gunpowder bomb at a grid intersection as a ranged attack against AC 5 with a range of 20 feet. The gunpowder bomb deals 1n a 10-foot-radius burst, which can be increased to 20 feet by spending 1 additional ki point. A creature in the bomb's radius can attempt a Reflex save (DC = 10 + half the gunpowder bombardier's ninja level + her Dexterity modifier) for half damage. At 5th level and every 2 levels thereafter, the bomb's damage increases by 1d6, to a maximum of 9d6 points of bludgeoning damage at 19th level.
This alters ki pool and replaces the ninja trick gained at 2nd level.
At 4th level, a gunpowder bombardier can imbue her gunpowder bombs with impairing effects. By spending 1 additional ki point when she throws a gunpowder bomb, the gunpowder bombardier can cause her bomb to inflict one of the following conditions, in addition to dealing its normal damage, for a number of rounds equal to half her ninja level: dazzled, deafened, entangled, or shaken. At 8th level, she adds nauseated and stunned to the list of conditions her bombs can inflict. A creature that succeeds at the Reflex save to halve the damage also negates the condition inflicted by the gunpowder bomb.
At 8th level, a gunpowder bombardier can plant a gunpowder bomb and delay its explosion. As a standard action, the gunpowder bombardier can place a gunpowder bomb—adding effects as she would if she were throwing the gunpowder bomb, and spending the requisite ki points—and specify a number of rounds after which the bomb will detonate, up to a maximum number of rounds equal to the gunpowder bombardier's ninja level. If the bomb is touched or moved by another creature, it detonates immediately.
The gunpowder bombardier can have only one delayed explosive active at a time; planting another gunpowder bomb renders the previous bomb inert.

T are good for Australian cattle dogs.
The best food for an Australian cattle dog puppy is one that contains a high protein and fat content, as well as a low amount of carbohydrates. A puppy needs to be fed more frequently than an adult dog, so the puppy food should have smaller kibble pieces that are easy for him to chew and digest.
Foods that are high in both protein and fat include lamb and rice, chicken and sweet potato, chicken and barley, and duck and oatmeal. These foods have been proven to maintain healthy weight gain in puppies while also helping them grow strong bones and muscles.
For adult cattle dogs, you should look for a food that has fewer carbohydrates than protein or fat. The best way to ensure a healthy diet is by reading the labels on the packaging of your dog’s food. The recommended daily intake of carbs per pound of body weight should be listed on the label somewhere near the top right corner; this number should be less than 30% of your dog’s total caloric intake per day.

Qt Creator can be downloaded from the Qt website. You can use the open source version as the licensing applies to building applications with the Qt framework. Since you are just using Qt Creator as a code editor, you will be just fine with the open source version.
Enable the Bare Metal Plugin
You will need to restart Qt Creator after enabling the bare metal plugin.
Configure the Stratify Labs Kit
Before you add a new kit, you will want to create the components that comprise the kit:
Debugger Devices
Add the C and C++ Compilers
The name field can be anything, but the paths must be:
Windows C: C:\StratifyLabs-SDK\Tools\gcc\bin\arm-none-eabi-gcc.exe
Windows C++: C:\StratifyLabs-SDK\Tools\gcc\bin\arm-none-eabi-g++.exe
Mac C: /Applications/StratifyLabs-SDK/Tools/gcc/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc
Mac C++: /Applications/StratifyLabs-SDK/Tools/gcc/bin/arm-none-eabi-g++
If you installed the SDK somewhere other than the default location the paths above will need to match where you installed the SDK.
Add the Debugger
If you use openOCD, ST Link or other hardware that is compatible with GCC’s gdb debugger, you can debug right in Qt.
You don’t require a debugger to develop Stratify OS applications. You can use Stratify Link to access crash reports, debug tracing, and standard IO (for printf debugging).
If you don’t add the debugger, Qt will give a harmless warning icon on the kit. But if you add the debugger, it will give you a cool little microcontroller icon (totally worth it).
Add devices for the Debugger
Make sure to specify MinGW Makefiles for the CMake generator
Open The HelloWorld Project
Configure the Project to use the Stratify Lab SDK
Build HelloWorld
You are ready to build HelloWorld! You just push the hammer icon in the bottom left corner of the window.
You can now open and build all the Stratify OS based projects such as sample applications, StratifyOS, sgfx, son, and the Stratify API.

Once I wake up, in between work calls, and even staying awake all night with only a few hours sleep; I’ve completed the Hunger Games Trilogy. Two and a half days. This is particularly scary for my Lovely: “You’re reading a book? The end is near!”
Also, If you know of any other good books I would like to try reading more!
2 Responses to “Hunger Indeed”
I love to read and of Negros by Lawrence Hill, When I first saw the book I thought I’d never get through it but I couldn’t seem to put it down. Another one I loved was Jade Peony by Wayson Choy.
Thanks Angie! I will look into those! :D

(Thanks to Beth Simon for pointing this out to me!) A new paper from Carl Wieman reviewing the literature on science education is always worth reading, but the one linked below is particularly useful to us in computer science. One of the issues that Carl addresses in this paper is whether competitions and other informal science learning efforts really do help with student learning. We do have a lot of different kind of competitions in computing education, from the First Robotics league to theUSA Computing Olympiad. His finding (quoted below): "y succeed, and some limited evidence to the contrary."

These highways — designed — are creating a series of borders and barriers, in effect isolating Palestinian areas into islands. In addition, since Israel has defined these highways as “security roads,” they reach a width of 350 yards (50 yards of road plus 150 yards of “sanitized” margins on each side), the equivalent of 3 1/2 football fields. This has resulted in the destruction of some of the area’s richest farmland, including olive groves and vineyards that have been owned and farmed by Palestinian families for generations.
The impact of such a massive road system in an area the size of Delaware is staggering, and has serioSuch direct subsidies for Israeli settlements placed the United States in violation of Article 7 of U.N. Security Council Resolution 465, which prohibits member states from assisting Israel in its colonization drive. So, not only has the United States allowed Israel to violate U.N. Security Council resolutions in continuing to maintain and expand its illegal settlements, Clinton placed the United States itself in violation of a U.N. Security Council mandate as well.
Recent calls by President Barack Obama for the government of Israelmarks a sharp reversal from Democratic Party policy toward the Israeli colonization of Palestinian land.
Whether the Obama administration will choose to use its enormous leverage to actually force the right-wing Israeli government to stop the expansion of such illegal settlements, however, remains to be seen. Much may depend on the reaction of the Democratic-controlled Congress.
As outlined in my recent article, it waswho were largely responsible for blocking efforts to freeze Israeli settlements in the early 1990s, when they were only half as large as they are now

I haven't read all your blog yet, and perhaps I shall. I'm not sure why you dislike Alan Keyes' ideas. Have you really listened to what he says?
You posted as anonymous, but are you sure you're not Alan Keyes?Anyway, I think you would be hard-pressed to get many people signed on to your retro-active agenda. I'm well aware that a state's legislature used to elect a the two U.S. Senators; does it mean I think we should bring this voting method back?Of course not. I also didn't realize that thinking of America as a democracy is "left-wing." If it is, I guess our country is 99% liberal!

“The twin juggernauts of hiphop and feminism are on a collision course. And Testament reckons he’s the guy to sort it out. A rapper and world record-holding beatboxer, he thinks he’s a right-on kind of guy. He’s made theatre shows and had his poetry on Radio 4. Then his daughter is born and suddenly he’s not so sure.

The DPI setting depends on the type of document you will be printing. The most critical element to consider is the amount of color you want to include. Is it for a business presentation? First impressions matter, and color imagery will speak louder than a black and white. Do you have family photos that you want to preserve? DPI can play a critical role depending on your printing needs which is why you should consider it before printing anything.
Example: You take a picture and set your digital camera's PPI (pixels per inch) resolution to capture a vivid scene which it does in tiny sub-pixels. When you print the picture, the printer must duplicate the imagery which is why DPI resolution matters.
The lower the DPI, the fewer ink dots your image will have and the fewer amount of colors your document will show.
Much like digital cameras, printers have different DPI settings. When thinking about DPI in terms of sizing, the resolution you choose is the smallest number a dot can get when printing. The higher the DPI, the clearer your image will be. It depends on the model of the printer as to how high or low a measurement. The standard resolution, though, is 600 DPI.
and professional grade printers. Standard printers typically have four color channels which limit the number of tones available when printing. Professional printers have between five and seven which means you can produce up to 128 color tones per inch. If your image was created on a monitor that had a higher resolution, you would choose a higher DPI than PPI to create a similar print.
Are DPI and PPI The Same?
There is much confusion because some people believe that DPI and PPI are the same things. Even though they both deal with print resolution, there is a bit of a difference.
DPI is a printing term used to describe the dots per inch in print form.
PPI measures pixel resolution of digital material (i.e. pictures, graphics).
Most commercial-grade printers create colors using a halftone technique which differs from the graphics resolution that uses a dithering method.
Dithering is a computer graphics technique that creates an illusion of colors not available in a digital palette.
Will The Wrong DPI Affect Print Quality?
PostcardsRus recommends that your DPI be a minimum of 300 for professional print quality.we have an FAQ which will be of assistance. sign or print requirements.

.! </s> Stunned Twitter users react to Trump claiming he’s done more for women than any President
Donald Trump has a long history of offensively ridiculous claims but today he may have spewed his worst yet. Our sexual predator president, the man who bragged about assaulting women and who has been accused by numerous women of rape and sexual assault, took to Twitter and claimed that he has “history.”
The tweet is especially ludicrous when you review Trump’s far-right legislative record and see that it is largely devoid of any bills that directly help women. Conversely, Plawsuits over unequal pay. Trump has no comparable accomplishments.
It’s unclear who exactly Trump’s message is geared towards beyond the most gullible of MAGAheads. Even if you don’t believe the credible assault and rape allegations for some reason, Trump has a public record of belittling, objectifying, and terrorizing women. This is the same misogynist who has regularly referred to women as “pigs” and “dogs.” No reasonable person could look at him and see a champion of women.
Trump proposing to build a statue in honor of women is a bad joke that does nothing to alleviate all the suffering he has inflicted on women over the years. If he really wanted to honor women he’d shift his draconian positions on reproductive rights and endorse a woman’s right to choose. Of course, the odds of him doing that are less than zero because he has a reactionary voting base to pander to. So instead he’s giving lip service to women’s issues in the hopes that it’ll earn him a few more votes in November. He’s mistaken.
Twitter users quickly swarmed the president’s tweet, with responses ranging from understandable and justified outrage to brutal mockery. One thing was clear: nobody is buying Trump’s claim.
You bragged being a sexual predator.

Taang Shifu @ Paradigm Mall
The interior of Tang Shifu's outlet in Paradigm Mall really gives off an oriental feel as can be seen in the photos above. I actually felt I was walking into one of the Chinese restaurants in ancient times, just like in the movies.
Reaching the restaurant just in time for dinner, we were first served with some rather refreshing tea in these nice transparent tea cups. It did not take long before the dishes were brought out, and it was a feast for both the eyes and stomach that night, a total of more than 10 nourishing dishes to be shared by everyone.
The first dish was the Braised Pork accompanied with four Black Sesame Buns. I've always liked the way Taang Shifu prepares their braised pork, full of flavour and taste. Highly recommended by the chef, the braised pork is supposed to be wrapped in these black sesame buns before popping it into the mouth.
#3 Mee Suah with Dried Scallop & Abalone Slices - RM13.90
Compared to the other subsequent dishes that we savored that night, this Mee Suah with Dried Scallop & Abalone Slices has a really mild taste to it. The mee suah noodles were slippery smooth, going down the throat easily, coupled with dried scallop and abalone slices, you know you're having a healthy dish the moment you put it into your mouth.
#4 Pan fried Eggplant with Scallop in XO Sauce - RM16.90
Up next was the Pan fried Eggplant with Scallop in XO Sauce, a dish which I didn't have much of due to me not really liking eggplants. I did try a couple of bites though, and I must say the scallops really added to the nice flavour of this dish.
#5 Cordycep Flower and Japanese Mushroom with Sliced Pork - RM38.90
This had to be my favourite dish that night, one which I could not have enough of, especially that sinfully delicious sliced pork belly complete with fats and all. The Cordycep Flower and Japanese Mushroom with Sliced Pork came served in a boiling hot pot, with yam slices inside as well. The meat is seriously tender, literally melting in my mouth. It was a tad too oily though, but I guess that is to be expected from that much fatty meat inside, with the cordycep flowers adding some healthy element to the dish.
#6 Angelica Dang gui Stewed Pork topped on Rice - RM7.90
Another meaty dish, the Angelica Dang gui Stewed Pork topped on Rice was a meal on its own. Supposedly good to regulate blood circulation, this dish provides a delicious savoury bite on top of being very appetizing and filling. The dish comes with a choice of having the white rice replaced with brown rice by topping up RM1.
#7 Claypot Beancurd with Sliced Dory Fish and pickled Olive - RM26.90
#8 Steamed Cod Fish with Dried Scallops - RM32.90
The Steamed Cod Fish with Dried Scallops was indeed a luxurious dish. The huge slab of steamed cod fish takes up nearly the whole plate, coupled with nice dried scallops and broccoli on the side doused in delicious soup-like sauce. I've always liked cod fishes due to their smooth texture, and this was no different. Good stuff.
#9 Snow Mountain Lotus Black Chicken Soup - RM38.90
Another one of Taang Shifu's signature dish would be this Snow Mountain Lotus Black Chicken Soup. I was told this dish was simmered for 5 to 6 hours to extract the essence of the snow mountain lotus, giving out an unforgettable herbal taste. The chicken itself melts in your mouth, being really soft and all.
#10 Stir Fried French Bean with Pu Er - RM15.90
Mummy always said to finish your vegetables, and here at Taang Shifu, the Stir Fried French Bean with Pu Er would be a vegetable dish I would love to finish all by myself. Again, it wasn't exactly a very healthy dish due to the oily nature of it, but I do love the savoury sweet taste of this dish.
#11 Emperor Chicken Marinated in Wine - RM16.90
Introduced as being an appetizer dish rather than a main one, the Emperor Chicken Marinated in Wine came in bite sizes. It wasn't a hot dish, with the chicken being glazed in wine and their special sauces. Being bite sized, I had more than a couple of the chicken pieces myself.
#13 Caramel Ginger Beancurd - RM5.90

Spurs transfer bids go to the wire
Published: 12:16 PM August 27, 2010 Updated: 10:30 AM October 14, 2020
HARRY Redknapp has narrowly missed out on a “fantastic” mystery player but remains keen to bolster his Spurs squad in the final five days of the transfer window.
“I like Diarra, but will be a difficult one financially,” said the manager. “He’s on big big wages at Real Madrid and we’d find it difficult to do a deal. We haven’t made an approach. His agent has rung up and spoken to my chief scout but it hasn’t gone any further than that.
“We had a couple of targets but I can’t see us getting them now – one for sure. I had a fantastic player I think, but the club wouldn’t let him go and changed their minds. He wasn’t that expensive. His manager will kill me if I say who it is.”
Tottenham retain a strong interest in Sevilla’s Brazilian international striker Luis Fabiano, and are also continuing to monitor Scott Parker’s situation at West Ham.
“For some reason when people ask about players leaving they always come back to Robbie Keane. He’s a good player and he’s important to us, so I’m not looking to see the back of Robbie. He’s infectious around the place, he’s still a great player. But you don’t know.
“I think we’re in a market at the moment where if people come and make good offers for players you’ve got to consider it, if you want to bring one or two in, so you never know who you may get an offer for.”
Redknapp reports that new recruit William Gallas is training well, and Brazilian midfielder Sandro – whose move to Tottenham was agreed back in March – is finally set to arrive in north London after winning the Copa Libertadores with Internacional last week.
“He’s a young player, I don’t want to start talking him up too much,” said Redknapp. “He’s still a young player who’s got to come and adjust to the Premier League. Hopefully he can come here and can get the pace of it all quickly, but you never know. We’ll have to wait and see.”

A University Says It Shouldn’t Have To Pay Money To Campus Rape Victims
Civil rights groups say some states feel empowered by the Trump administration to restrict students’ rights to sue public universities under Title IX.
Posted on March 21, 2017, 16:03 GMT
Leslie Rutledge, Arkansas Attorney General, at Trump Tower
A university is arguing that the US Constitution protects it from being sued for money under the gender equity law Title IX, and a group of state attorneys general are supporting the school in a federal appeals court.If the court sides with the university, it would strip students of their ability to file federal lawsuits for damages against state colleges for mishandling sexual assault cases. Legal observers say there’s a strong chance the case could end up before the US Supreme Court, given the attention from attorneys general in seven states backing the school and support the plaintiff..“It is a radical approach,” said Adele Kimmel, an attorney at the firm Public Justice, which co-signed an amicus brief in support of Fryberger. Kimmel traced the university’s approach to the election of President Donald Trump. she said.Many victims’ advocacy organizations worry that a decision supporting the university would undercut gains made by sexual assault survivors in recent years and affect how schools deal with other civil rights laws, like those on disabilities and race.“If you’re going to lose your right to sue for damages at the same time we’re afraid the government is going to cut back on enforcement of civil rights laws, then you’re left with nothing,” said Amy Katz, an attorney with the ACLU Women's Rights Project.The seven attorneys general — all Republicans — who filed an amicus brief supporting the university see it differently. s.The outcome of the case “has far reaching implications on Arkansas’s sovereignty and our taxpayer dollars,” Judd Deere, a spokesmatold BuzzFeed News.Rutledge is joined by Mark Brnovich of Arizona, Dglas Ken Paxton of Texas in the amicus brief.
Supreme Court nominee judge Neil Gorsuch
Two Supreme Court cases from the 1990s set the stage for students to sue schools over Title IX violations, including sexual assault. In 2007, the right to sue was further expanded by a federal Neil Gorsuch — meaning if the Arkansas suit goes to the high court, he might end up weighing in on the issue for a second time.Many public universities would welcome more clarity on what immunity they have under the 11th Amendment, said Peter Lake, a higher education law expert at Florida’s Stetson University. Schools also are increasingly defending themselves against costly lawsuits from alleged victims and accused students. With a new president and a different Supreme Court than there was twenty years ago, "I think it's time to test the waters," Lake said.Rick Rossein, a CUNY Law School professor, agreed. “This whole area is very ripe for litigation right now, and with the new administration, who knows what they will do with Title IX regulations,” said Rossein, who teaches courses on discrimination law.T.The university’s argument is similar to one made by the George H. W. Bush administration, which was rejected 9-0 by the Supreme Court in 1992. Because that 1992 case dealt with a K-12 school district, it’s unclear if the same holds true for public higher educationby the University of Arkansas’s lawyers.The university and its lawyers declined to comment for this story.Fryberger says the University of Arkansas violated Title IX after she reported that Raymond Higgs, a fellow student who competed in the long jump in the 2012 Summer Olympics, sexually assaulted her in October 2014.The university found Higgs reed in December 2014. Higgs appealed but did not contest whether he was guilty, just that the sanction was too severe and would impede his track career. While the university upheld the punishment, the school said in a Jan. 29, 2015 letter signed by top school officials that it didn’t believe Higgs’ “immediate expulsion is appropriate in this case.” The university then told Fryberger that his expulsion wouldn’t take effect until the day after graduation.Two weeks later, after being asked for comment about the decision, the school said the letter had been sent in error, and Higgs was expelled immediately. Fryberger withdrew from the university a couple months later and filed a civil lawsuit in August 2016. (The lawsuit says the school originally defended the decision to delay his expulsion, but changed course after this reporter contacted the university.)
RebelAt / English Wikipedia / Via en.wikipedia.org
Victims’ advocates say it’s important to allow people to sue for monetary damages in federal court because such suits act as deterrents against schools violating Title IX in the first place.The University of Arkansas, though, argued in court documents that the consequences of eliminating Title IX damage suits against public colleges “are grossly overstated.” Title IX will continue to offer “crucial protections and play a transformative role in our society,” the school said. It noted that students are free to sue schools in state court, report their rapists to police, or, which could move to cut off a college’s federal funding.But the Education Department will likely never pull funding, said Rebecca Peterson-Fisher, an attorney withho signed the brief supporting Fryberger. The department has never stripped funding for Title IX violations, and it’s too overworked and understaffed to deal with backlogged federal investigations into these cases.The Education Department also cannot award monetary damages, which Peterson-Fisher said survivors sometimes need for medical and mental health bills, as well as other costs.A combination of weaker federal enforcement and losing the ability to file Title IX lawsuits would leave students “really powerless,” Peterson-Fisher said.The advocacy groups supporting Fryberger, which also include feel confident about their chances. They noted in their brief that multiple appeals courts in other circuits have rejected universities’ sovereign immunity defense in discrimination cases.But it’s likely, legal scholars say, that whatever the decision by the Court of Appeals, this could still get pushed to the Supreme Court.“I would assume when you get this kind of energy around the case that this might need to go all the way to the top,” Lake said.

Arsenal striker set for 'top club'
Bendtner scored two goals at Euro 2012 (©GettyImages).
Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner is close to joining a 'top club' this summer, according to his agent.
And the player's agent, Tom Brookes, insists the Gunners forward will end up at a big club this summer.
"Nicklas is a top striker, who just proved himself at the Euros," Brookes told Ekstra Bladet. "I'm 'm not going to be drawn into speculation."
Bendtner has been linked with La Liga side Malaga in the past, as well as Turkish outift Galatasaray, but the 24-year-old currently remains an Arsenal player.
The Danish forward has two years left on his contract, and spent last season on loan at Sunderland.

What weight, then, can there be in the recommendations of a few blind men, extolled and applauded by others equally blind, as compared with the unanimous testimony of the Holy Scriptures, of all the Holy Fathers, and of the canonical decrees of the Church concerning the Jesus Prayer?

All it takes is a spark. A tiny one. Those of us who have the sickness are like a bonfire just waiting for a match to strike. I hope as you read the blog I make you think now and then;
I blogged a few weeks back (and Sunday as well) about how great the OPEN program is from AMEX. If you do not have, say, the DELTA Reserve Business card, part of OPEN from AMEX, you are just missing out on a bunch of points. Please go back and reread THIS post.
So here is what I have done round trip now. I have my Officemax $100 gift cards (two of them)that with OPEN discount cost me just $90 each. I purchased a $200 visa card for only $6.95 in fees. I then paid my electricity bill online with the visa gift card and incurred a $2.95 fee. So you see the math. $9.90 is my all in expense. So net I made $10.10 and earned 200 SKYMILES and helped knock off $200 of my $60,000 spend goal for my Reserve card for the year to get the 30,000 MQM’s from the card (you can get 40,000 total first year btw with new card bonus deal).
@Grant – yes I cover that in the “re-read this post” post where you should test first. Mine is just great about it! Plus, I have two of them nearby! Yeah me!
@James – re-read the post. I am getting PAID over $10 & the 200 Skymiles & I am knocking down spend to get my bonus MQM’s ( and 30k RDM’s as well) – Rene
@Rick – Oh I know I have a ton to learn. I also have other goals. My goals are DELTA DELTA DELTA MQM’s MQM’s.. oh you get the idea. And, playing this “with in reason” I will not get shut down as some do on the NS deals.
Here are some other ways to earn miles on utility bills. Cycle through each one every 6+ months to slowly stack up the miles
Why don’t you just pay the bill with your skymiles credit card and eat the $2.95 fee, which earns skymiles anyway? Saves time, which I value at more than $10 of going to Office Max l, which I would not ordinarily do. And that $10.10 visa is only a net gain to you if you spend the entire remaining amount.
I used my Visas/Mastercards to buy myself gift cards (living in IL, Ameren allows such a thing). I think Visa/Mastercard gift cards would’ve worked too. In that way I only paid for the face value of the gift card; no extra fees were imposed for using Visa/Mastercard (in comparison to using them directly on Ameren to pay for the bill). You could consider that if your utilities company sells gift cards.
I also wonder if one could just use their SunTrust Delta debit card to pay an electric bill while still getting miles, albeit non-MQM.
@Knart – there are limited partners who will qualify for OPEN savings. – Rene
@Devon. As you say you must buy at LEAST $250. So, now that I have tested with a $300 order, for me, I will bump it up to $400 each order and go for 2 – $200 cards each round. Last time I spent a few bucks more of cost to buy 1 – $200 and 1 – $100 just for my test! – Rene
@Devon. I have done just ONE round trip so far. Will do many more this time. Will be sure to report back. FM also said he will add the results to his logs on his blog! – Rene
Rene, OPEN has changed TC that discount now only applies to the purchase on officemax.com, not in the retail store. They have sent out the notice with the monthly statement. See the current TC. officemax.com only sells office max gift card, not visa card..
@Allen – yes, that is correct. as posted, you 1st buy OfficeMax gift cards FREE S&H no extra charge. Then, you go into you local store, buy the VISA gift cards. – Rene
(thus again – if you missed the 1st post, be sure to GO BACK and read it!)

I was chatting with one of my clients last week about what activities I take part in. He pointed out that I played college hoops, was a personal trainer, a yoga instructor, and like to run and bike. "You really are well-balanced, aren't you?"
After ten years of working in the fitness industry and over thirty years of playing competitive and recreational sports, it amazes me that I have walked away with very few injuries. There is no doubt I have sustained my share of sprained ankles, bruises, and bumps (thanks to my teammate Patty A for providing a brick wall for me so I could fall flat on my back). I attribute the few number of injuries to cross-training. We have all heard the phrase, but do you really understand what it means?
Red, green, yellow, large, small, round, cylindrical, fried, grilled, fresh…
It is no surprise, I love food. Most all of it. As a kid I heard these two phrases frequently, "smaller bites" and "chew your food."
Over the years I have come to really enjoy the food I eat, avoiding inhaling it as fast as possible. Using a smaller fork or spoon forces smaller bite sizes. Even with these changes, one never knows what could happen. How would you react if you were with a group of friends or family members and all of a sudden someone begins to choke. Fight or flight kicks in. Would you jump up and begin abdominal thrusts or sit in shock and panic?
We all the the universal sign for choking. But do you know how to help someone else or yourself if the case need be?
At the beginning of a yoga class, I will often ask the students to set an intention. What are they looking to get out of the class. This morning as I was about to begin exercising, I did just that. Once the workout was complete, I said to myself, "that was a great workout."
Setting intentions can help bring peace and understanding to ourselves and others. Have you set your intention for today?

It seems that after three months of traveling with Madonna on her Rebel Heart tour, Rocco decided he’d had enough and flew to the United Kingdom to live with Guy Ritchie.
As previously reported by the Inquisitr, the demise of Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s marriage and the custody battle over Rocco have both played out through the stars respective public relations teams. Ritchie continues to pain Madonna as self-absorbed and unnecessarily strict with her children. Meanwhile, Madonna’s public relations team paints Ritchie as a negligent parent determined to use their son to settle a score with his ex-wife.

I am a son of God, a disciple of Jesus, a home for the Holy Spirit, a husband to a beautiful wife, a father to four precious children, a teacher, a church planter, a servant, a friend, an entrepreneur, a mentor, and an imperfect but moldable piece of clay in the hands of God.

Life insurance may sound like something you shouldn't think about until you're old, but there are several advantages to having life insurance early in your career. Even if you don't have family dependents or your employer's life insurance policy is right for your needs, there are many reasons to get your life insurance.
If your employer provides you with life insurance, you don't have to rely on it. You can also get information about index all life universal via the web.
Although many companies offer life insurance as one of the main benefits of employment, this amount is often not enough to provide adequate benefits for your family – especially in the event of death.
For example, many companies offer life insurance policies that are one or two times your annual salary; However, most financial professionals will recommend replacing it with life insurance that covers 10 times your annual salary.
In addition, it is always important for consumers to know which life insurance they can choose: There are two types of life insurance: term insurance or investment insurance. Whole life insurance provides benefits to your family or loved ones if you die within the period specified in your policy.
Perhaps the most important piece of information to remember when looking for life insurance, however, is the importance of shopping. It is important to ensure that the insurance you invest in is best suited to your specific needs.

CSIL textile ecosystems study presented at the EU Industry days - CSIL - Centre for Industrial Studies
CSIL participated in the EU Industry Days, Europe’s flagship annual event spotlighting industrial actors and ongoing policy discussions.
On 8 February 2022, CSIL researcher Francesca Guadagno contributed to a workshop on the Textiles Ecosystem in a panel made of EURATEX, the company WOJAS SA and CITEVE - Technological Centre for Textile and Clothing Industries in Portugal. Francesca presented the recently published study on "Data on the EU textile ecosystem and its competitiveness", commissioned by DG for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship & SMEs.
The study's final report provides an assessment of opportunities and challenges faced by the EU textile ecosystem and the fashion industry regarding their competitiveness, innovation capacity, and economic relevance.
The workshop highlighted how the textile ecosystem is an asset for the EU – it generates value and innovation and showcases EU creativity and image. New challenges (import dependencies and job losses) need an urgent response. New opportunities – e-commerce and circularity – can turn the ecosystem around and become new sources of long-term competitiveness.

When Should I File My Rear-End Accident Claim?
The general rule in Georgia, based on the State of Georgia’s Driving Manual, is that the driver who hits a car in front of them ismost rear-end accidents are a result of the second car following the first one too closely. Drivers must so they can stop safely if the driver in front suddenly brakes or stops their car.
While the general rule is that the second driver is responsible for rear-end accidents,g scenarios:
If the driver who was rear-ended was driving a vehicle with a defect – for example, their brake lights were out, and cars couldn’t see that they were braking – then the front car may be at least partially liable
If the driver of the car in front makes sudden maneuvers that others on the road wouldn’t expect, such as swerving or reversing, the car behind them may not be held liable for the accident
What If Both Drivers Are At Fault?
Some factors that can lead to these collision driving while text messaging or using other electronics
Road conditions, such as rain and snow
The lawmakers of Georgia passed Georgia’s Hands-Free law, which took effect on July 1st, 2018. The law was passed due to increasing numbers due to phones and other electronics while driving.
Under this law, driv driving:
Holding or propping an electronic device against part of their body
Reading or sending text messages
Watching, recording, or broadcasting videos
Posting on social media and surfing the internet
Drivers can listen to music on a hands-free listening device but cannot pick up the device to change songslaw. Drivers can pick up their phones in the case of an emergency to call emergency personnel. Drivers are also permitted to use their electronic devices to record a crime they are witnessing while driving.
Common Injuries After a Savannah Rear-End Collision
Rear-end collisions are known to cause injuries, even those that occur at low speeds. You should always take an accident seriously. Somethe following:
Whiplash is an injury caused by the sudden jolting of the neck backward and forwards. The main symptoms are pain to the neck and shoulders. It is .
Head injuries can occur in many different ways during a rear-end collision. Most often, head injuries occur when a victim’s head hits part of the car, such as the steering wheel or the window. This can cause mild or severe head and brain injuries.
Spinal fractures are seen more in high-speed rear-end collisions. With the seat belt securing the lower part of the body, the torso is thrown around violently when there is a collision. A fracture of the vertebrae can be the result of this abrupt, violent motion. Other back and neck injuries can easily occur as well.
The same violent movement that causes spinal fractures can also result in herniated discs. The discs that naturally provide a cushion in the vertebrae could slip out of their position, causing serious injury.
Rear-end collisions are often complicated because many victims do not experience symptoms immediately after these accidents. Therefore, they may assume that they aren’t injured and don’t need to visit a medical professional. The adrenaline released by the body often masks the effects of the incidents

Jim Covault to exit Stage West
Jim Covault plans to step down as co-producer and artistic director of Stage West, the Fort Worth organization announced on Tuesday.
Covault will relinquish 2016, shortly after the close of the company’s 37th season. But he will remain as an artistic associate, directing and acting as needed, according to a news release.
“Jim Covault has been a pillar of Stage West almost since the company’s beginnings in a sandwich shop 35 years ago,” said Bronson Davis, Stage West board president.
“He has been an artistic force, working closely with founder Jerry Russell and now Dana Schultes, to bring to Fort Worth a rich variety of wonderful productions,” said Davis.
Covault began his association with Stage West in summer 1980 and has subsequently d credited for much of the organization’s graphic design while managing the theatre’s marketing and s.
In addition to his portraying several roles, he has directed shows such as The Explorers Club, Beyond Therapy, She Loves Me, The Clean House, The Miser, The 39 Steps, The Skin of Our Teeth and The Real Thing.
Since the company’s return to its present location on West Vickery Boulevard and Covault’s role as artistic director, Stage West’s budget has more than doubled, noted Davis, adding that Covault has made the character Jeeves synonymous with Stage West. He also played several singular roles such as Mark Rothko, Lyndon B. Johnson, Alan Turing and Aunt Augusta (Travels with My Aunt).
“We are especially delighted that though retiring from his administrative roles he will still be associated artistically with the company,” Davis said.
Stage West is a professional theater a. For more than 37 years, it has produced 265 shows, including 244 plays and 21 musicals.

The MINI range is in the midst of a full rebirth. New tech, swanky and posh cabin materials, plus fresh looks outside.
Don’t let this reveal miss your radar, though, because the new Clubman might be the ideal and long-sought-after fast wagon variant of your dreams!
First off, the dimensions. The Clubman is 10.6 inches longer than the new 4-Door Hardtop (aka the 5-Door in UK). The Clubman is also 3.5-inches wider than its doppelganger.
Those are big stretches for any body style variant — and proof of what a next-gen platform rides below this low-roof stunner. A longer rear quarter window and doors mark out the look in profile, with the tailgate a big change versus the 4-Door. In the Clubman, split doors live right at the edge of the bumper, while the shorter MINI has much more body-colored shoulderline in its tailgate shape, with glass living inboard the bumper.
The big dimensions outside are matched inside, with truly lounge-like back seat room for the first time in any MINIINI segment. MINI generation. It isr, and its wheelbase is 10 centimetres larger. Its luggage compartment has a volume of 360 litres and can be extended to as much as 1240 : 20 : 40 split. The new MINI Clubman
With the latest expansion of its model range, MINI continues to pursue its course of ongoing growth in the worldwide automobile markets. Both in the small car and the compact segment, the brand is meeting the needs and requirements of demanding target groups attracted by distinctive and highly expressive design, high-end technology and material quality as well as premium-level workmanship. With its latest model generation, MINI perpetuates the success story The choice of either the new MINI 3 door or the new MINI 5 door model increases overall appeal even further.

Nithyananda Peetam, at the Ujjain Kumbh Puri, does not cease to surprise you. Every day, we get to hear about more and more yogic powers being visibly lived by the devotees and disciples of Paramahamsa Nithyananda.
Nirahara Samyama, is an age-old science that was used by yogis of ancient India to go beyond hunger and live long. This mystical science has been made user-friendly for humanity today by Paramahamsa Nithyananda.
Think about it, what we consume as food is a modified version of the Sun’s energy. Our digestive is away to directly consume the usable part of the Sun’s energy directly from the environment. This usable energy is called prana and Nirahara Samyama uses this energy directly to keep the body functioning and give it an opportunity to self-heal.
More than 2000 disciples of Paramahamsa Nithyananda from over 50 countries are here in Ujjain to participate in the Kumbh Mela. Many hundreds of them have completed the Nirahara Samyama which essentially boils down to avoiding all solid food. The process involves being only on liquid food for two, seven and eleven days at a stretch with a one-day break in between. People who have successfully completed these three stages, go on to do 21 days at a stretch in the presence of their Guru. This process is supported by a simple meditation that one needs to do for 21 minutes a day.
After this initiation, they can choose to be only on liquid food for the rest of their lives if they choose to.
People end up over eating when they are stressed or even when they are celebrating. Practicing Nirahara Samyama helps them to overcome such unhealthy eating patterns. Medical studies on people doing this process show that apart from losing excess weight, their blood work including Vitamin D levels improve significantly.
Nirahara Samyama also rejuvenates the body and people who have practiced it have reported significant anti-ageing results. An example of this is Debbie Chance (Ma Nithya Balananda) from the USA. She is well over her 60s but looks a few decades younger. There are those like Ma Nithya Durgananda from Singapore who have been on only liquid food for over 2 years at a stretch.
You can get more information about Niraahara Samyama at BFoodFree.org and BFoodFree group on Facebook.

Back in the early 1990s Steven Seagal was one of the top box office attractions in Hollywood movies. In the ilk of such cinematic butt-kickers as Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme, Seagal was a martial arts action figure who seemed as tough off the scene as on it. But Seagal’s star has faded in recent years. His films no longer make mega bucks, nearly all of them relegated to DTR (direct-to-video). Now he has to make money by fronting shows on cable TV and playing guitar in a rock band.
What happened to Steven Seagal’s acting career? Well, for one thing, Seagal’s name now appears synonymous with the words jerk, bully or a-hole. Do any of these unflattering labels fit Steven Seagal?
Steven Seagal has a black belt in aikido. With his muscular, six-foot-five frame and good looks, he became an action-adventure leading man in the late 1980s, beginning with Above the Law in 1988. Seagal’s most successful film has been Under Siege (1992), which really kicked tail at the box office.
But Seagal’s movie career began sinking in the middle 1990s, as audiences already seemed bored with his limited acting ability and take-no-crap, on-screen persona. It seemed probable that Steven Seagal was just another Hollywood tough guy whose career would quickly fade like that of a professional boxer who meets his match and gets pummeled on national TV.
And Seagal wasn't helping his reputation by being outspoken and intimidating in interviews. He was also quick to criticize others, which doesn’t win friends and influence people. Seagal seemed joined at the hip with other hard guys such as Jose Canseco. It’s difficult to like such edgy fellows.
Then, seemingly, Seagal really amped up his boorish behavior:
Seagal Drives Tank into Arizona Home
In January 2011, near Phoenix, Arizona, Steven Seagal, an animal rights advocate, took part in the police raid of a man suspected of raising roosters used in illegal cock fights. While filming a segment for his reality show, Steven Seagal: Lawman, and clad in battle fatigues and driving in a SWAT tank, Seagal and sheriff deputies raided the home of Jesus Llovera. Setting off explosives to “distract” Llovera, the deputies also smashed a fence and broke out windows in Llovera’s home. During the bust, Llovera’s 11-month-old puppy was killed (perhaps shot) and some 100 roosters were also dispatched without quarter.
Did Seagal have anything to do with the carnage? He claimed he didn’t. At any rate, was Seagal a jerk for being there in the first place? Hey, reality shows need, uh, reality!
Nevertheless, Steven Seagal, an animal rights proponent, seemed at least partially responsible for killing one puppy dog and 100 roosters!
Segal and Putin are pals
Nguyen later sued Seagal and his production company, Steamroller Productions, for one million dollars, charging sexual harassment, human trafficking, wrongful dismissal and other charges. Seagal’s attorney released a statement saying the charges were ridiculous and that Nguyen was fired for using “illegal narcotics.”
In July 2010, Nguyen dropped the lawsuit without explanation.
There have been many bad hosts on Saturday Night Live, but perhaps the worst of all time is Steven Seagal; in fact, Seagal made the list of the Top Ten Dubious SNL Hosts. According to the book, Live From New York by Tom Shales and James Andrew Miller, back in 1991 when Seagal hosted the show, cast member David Spade said it was the first time he heard talk about replacing the host and doing a cast show.
Julia Sweeney said: “When we pitched our ideas for Seagal at our Monday meeting, he gave us some of his own sketch ideas. And some of his sketch ideas were so heinous, but so hilariously awful, it was like we were on Candid Camera.
“He had this idea that he’s a therapist and he wanted Victoria Jackson to be his patient who’s just been raped. And the therapist says, ‘You’re going to have to come to me twice a week for like three years,’ because, he said, ‘that’s how therapists freaking are. They’re just trying to get your money.’ And then he says that the psychiatrist tries to have sex with her.”
Tim Meadows said: “The biggest problem with Steven Seagal was that he would complain about jokes that he didn’t get, so it was like – you can’t explain something to somebody in German if they don’t speak German. He just wasn’t funny and he was very critical of the cast and the writing staff. He didn’t realize that you can’t tell somebody they’re stupid on Wednesday and expect them to continue writing for you on Saturday.”
On various radio and TV shows such as Access Hollywood, John Leguizamo has vented steam about former cast member Steven Seagal. Leguizamo claims that while on the set of the movie, Executive Decision (1996), Seagal bullied him. John Leguizamo said:
He was supposed to be the master sergeant and I was right underneath him, his boy. We came to the first day of rehearsals, and he goes, “I’m in command,” and we laughed. I thought he was kidding. Who talks like that? He comes at me and elbows me . . . against a brick wall and knocks all the air out of me and I’m like ‘why’? I wanted to say how big and fat he is and how he runs like a girl, but I couldn’t because I didn’t have enough air.
Leguizamo continues to fire away at Seagal in his comedy routines, and supposedly, Seagal can’t wait to kick his butt.
Steven Seagal Wanted to “See” Jenny McCarthy
Per a Movieline interview in 1998, actress Jenny McCarthy, often seen on TV shows such as Two and a Half Men, claimed that while auditioning alone with Seagal for a part in the movie, Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995), Seagal told her to take off her dress.
McCarthy said there were no nude scenes for her part in the movie - she had the script right there with her and wouldn’t have tried out for the part even if it required a nude scene - so she refused to take off her dress.
McCarthy, a former Playboy Playmate of the Year, finally told Seagal that if he wanted to see her nude, he should rent her Playboy video, and then she promptly left the audition.
Seagal claimed such an audition never took place.
Steven Seagal Plays Guitar in Ukraine
In August 2014, at a concert promoted by the biker gang Night Wolves, Steven Seagal played guitar at a concert in Sevastopol, Ukraine, a country beset by civil war. During this protracted conflict, Russia has expressed the desire to annex Crimea, a move many Europeans and the United States opposes. During the concert Seagal told the crowd: "No man has the right to condemn another man for believing what he believes in."
Oh yeah, Steven? Nobody has the right to condemn points of view that may include the advocacy of sexual slavery, human trafficking, child molestation or the use of poison gas in warfare? Although Seagal expressed no strong feelings pro or con regarding combatants in the civil war in Ukraine, he seems to think his appearance there will have a positive effect.
At any rate, Steven played blues guitar and sang a little. But is he good or what?
Well, what kind of person is Steven Seagal? If the aforementioned allegations or complaints have any basis in fact, then perhaps Steven Seagal really is a jerk, bully or a-hole. At any rate, the public will have to decide, not the author of this article.
And cast a vote . . .

I'd never heard of him well the name sure but I only researched because my dad seems to distain him and after reading this even if a half of it's true - he's certainly up in the ranks of Hollywood jerk.
One of my good friends and his wife sat at a dinner table with Seagal and his then wife, at some big event in LA, years ago, and his only comment after meeting and talking with him was that he was a JERK !

Catch Snortin Steve on:
He pretends to be a cop. I have a friend that is a fan of his for some reason. He saw lawman and laughed, because he said he does a few direct to DVD movies per year. So the whole lawman show was a publicity ploy. If you watch any of those episodes. The cops sometimes seem starstruck. Like they are just meeting him for the first time. Also, the show had him as a deputy in Louisiana not Arizona.
It kinda reminds me of Elvis. They gave him a badge and he thought he was a cop. He spoke out against drugs. Yet like Michael Jackson had doctors write scripts for Dilaudid and cocaine for sore throats. If you don't believe me. Look it up. He was given speed in the military and moved on from there. Sad that the government thinks weed is more dangerous then coke.
I heard he went on a black ops raid and killed people in Amman.

Thanks for the comment, phildazz. I'm glad you're trying to be fair with your treatment of Seagal. Anyway, this article is not simply based on what people think of Seagal. To a certain extent at least, his actions were described with - I hope - some degree of accuracy. Later!
phildazz 3 years ago from Toronto
I didn't vote cause I usually judge someone's actions and not what's said about the person. However, I did wonder why he fell from grace and your Hub comes with some pretty good insight.
Thanks for the comment, GuitarGear. Every occupation has its share of jerks. As for rock guitarists, Ted Nugent and Gene Simmons are not the most likeable guys around. Later!
GuitarGear 3 years ago from Youngstown, Ohio
I think Seagal is a big "Galoot". I didn't vote because it's hard to crown the "Biggest Jerk" since there are so many of them in Hollywood. He may not be the king of the jerks but is definitely jerk royalty. Ha, ha. I can't believe the way people give movie stars credibility off screen just because they (Not including Seagal) have some acting skills and are good looking. In the world of movie stars the lights are extremely bright but the intellectual residence are curiously absent.

i think steven seagal is really an extraordinary guy. for me one thing is obvious. hollywood is mafia. most actors in hollywood like george clooney, brad pitt,decaprio,johnny depp,meryl streep,and so on became big just due to capitalism. all of them are stupid.if even steven seagal doesn't be a big actor but he is one the most biggest martial arts and i personally think the very early fimls of seagal were very meaningful with political contents like above the law, hard to kill and some other but i accept that steven's films in almost 2000 until now have no any excitement like his early movies.in the end i found steven is a great guy,a big martial art, and a real humanitarian. most actors in hollywood are nothing but unfortunately mediums make them idol that of course they are not indeed.

Thanks for the comment, J Red Horse. Few people seem to like Steven Seagal. And you say he has bad breath - OMG! He really is a creep. Hahahahahahahahahahaha! Later!
J Red Horse 4 years ago from The beautiful wilderness of the White Mountain of N.H.
First off Matthew McConaughey is a gaint ass, can't stand his movies, well except his role in Reign of fire as the Dragon slayer...it was pretty funny.
As for Seagal, I've personally met him and he is an ass, he talks at people not with them, he always seems like he would rather be somewhere else and his breath was the worst I think I've smelled in my whole life.
I'm no fan of his movies they all seem the same just with different titles...BOREING!
Great Hub by the way!!!
Thanks for the comment, natures47friend. I think Seagal needs to take a class or two on sensitivity. Later!

OK. I like watching his movies when I feel angry..it help seeing aggression, but now I see him in a different light...not particularly favourable!
Yeah, leann2800, Steven Seagal is an easy guy to dislike, but please don't hate him. It's not healthy. Later!

I've watched his reality tv show a couple of time, but had to stop. He really is a jerk and they can't hide that, not even on a show dedicated to him, what he loves and supposedly to make him look like a good guy. Instead, they make him look like a pompus ass who doesn't who doesn't get the facts before yelling and/or arresting someone. It's one of the oddest things.

Hello, carol3san! I wouldn't advise anyone to crucify anyone else - literally or figuratively. You may have noticed that my article is not an editorial. I tried to maintain journalistic objectivity. Nevertheless, my personal opinion is that Seagal is an inconsiderate, egotistical person. Be that as it may, as you said, there are many such folks in Hollywood. Later!
Hey, Immartin, I guess you don't see lots of action-adventure movies. Steven Seagal has been in many of those, but these days his movies are much harder to find! Thanks for the comment. Later!
carol3san 5 years ago from Hollywood Florida
I liked his movies and was surprised to see him show up on TV. He may have some problems now, but I'm not ready to crucerfy him for it because there are too many other actors in and out of Hollywood that seems to behave terrible sometimes...I started to name names but I will resist the temptation.

It's really interesting and entertaining finding out about the many jerks in Hollywood. It's about time somebody did a top ten list, don't you think? Well, I guess I'll have to do it. Later!

It is kind of disappointing to find out such a crap about your favorite actor. I better not know about they personal life and just enjoy the film.
But what would happened to us if we had that much money
I hope I stay the same as I am now: The Jeweller.
Stevennix2001 5 years ago
oh never mind, I got it now. sorry, I'm not thinking too clearly today. lol. Yeah, I have to agree with Ralph Deeds as well that Mel Gibson and Charlie Sheen are also jerks. However, I also know for a fact that Matthew McConaughey is a jerk. A friend of a friend of mine used to work for a local restaurant down in Texas. Apparently he worked at one of those fancy restaurants that you had to have a reservation for in order to get into.
Anyway, Matthew McConaughey walks in out of nowhere, and sits at a table without a reservation, and without even so much as bothering to check with the host, while the place was busy. Anyway, this friend of a friend approaches Mr. McConaughey to say that he can't sit down ahead of everyone else without a reservation. And Matthew said, and I quote:
"Do you know who the f*** I am!?!"
And the guy just responded:
"I don't give a f*** who you are! You're not allowed to sit down without a reservation."
Of course, since it was Matthew McConaughey, the poor guy got written up for the incident, even though he was merely doing his job, and Matthew got a free meal out of the whole thing. Can you believe that?
Your impressed that I can spell Schwarzenneger?!? Is that a joke? If so, then I don't get it. Sorry.
Thanks for the comment, RealHousewife. I also will not watch a movie if Seagal is in it. Richard Gere is another one I always avoid. Later!
Thanks for the comment, Ralph Deeds. I greatly prefer Gibson and Sheen to Steven Seagal. Also, you're right about Seagal - he doesn't have the talent to play dead. Later!

My vote for biggest jerk goes to Mel Gibson with Charlie Sheen as a close second. However, I've never been a Seagall fan since I prefer actors who can actually act.
Thanks for stopping by, Kathy. Jerk is a generic term that appears socially acceptable and nearly everybody knows what it means; it also works well in keyword searches. Also, notice that I used the word a-hole instead of ...! Come again. Later!
Thanks for the lengthy comment, Stevennix2001! Steven Seagal may not be the biggest jerk in Hollywood, but he's probably in the top ten. Hey, I'm impressed you can spell Schwarzenneger. Later!

I have never cared for using the term "jerk" but it seems appropriate in your writing. He is also known for being a womanizing batterer. He was probably a creepy little kid too! Looking forward to your next article.

Kosmo - I can't stand Segal. If I even see that he is an actor in a movie - I won't watch it. Period. I did not know all the info you published - so thanks, you have validated my feelings:) lol Have a great day!
To be honest, I don't know if Steven Seagal is the biggest jerk in Hollywood or not. Nor do I honestly give a damn if he is either way, as I've read thousand upon thousand of stories of various celebrities that are allegedly a**holes too, but somehow have better luck than Seagal. Hell, Tommy Lee Jones is known to be a bit of a jerk too in Hollywood, but he still gets parts. Granted, he doesn't have the same allegations that Seagal has, but you get the idea.
However, I think the reality is that Seagal has always been limited in his acting range. sure, he enjoyed a lot of early success back in a time when over the top cliché action films were popular, but as the action genre has changed, he hasn't..which why he can't really go out for any parts. As you pointed out, he's never been known to be a versatile actor to begin with, and action movies typically favor younger actors these days. It's one of the reasons why "The Expendables" had to have an all star cast; otherwise it would've bombed on it's own merit as the story wasn't that great. To make matters worse is that unlike Stallone and Schwarzenneger that were practically household names back in their time, and have franchises that they could rely on (i.e. Rocky and Terminator). Seagal never had a franchise that he could depend on. Sure, you can say "Undersiege" is one, but only reason the first one was good was because of the supporting cast, and like I said, people craved a lot of over the top action movies at the time.
Anyway, thanks for writing this though, as I must say it was interesting to read. :)

It could be a change in a branch address, new IBAN numbers, new BIC Codes, changing of internal rules, changing of external rules, addition of rules, change in regulation, Bank mergers, acquisitions, branch closures, and the list goes on. It’s constantly changing data. Each change has the potential to slow or stall the digital movement of funds, bouncing that transaction into an exceptions queue. These then require manual interventions to correct them. A whole department dedicated to fixing the problems of not validating the correct details before sending.

5.1 Country Report: Belgium - Flanders
Flanders is situated in the northern part of Belgium and its most common spoken language is Dutch, whereas in Wallonia, the southern part of Belgium, mostly French is used. In the past, there was only one Belgian Deaf Federation, NAVEKADOS (the 'National Federation of Catholic Deaf–Mutes'). However, in the 1970s, as a result of the political process of federalization in Belgium, the national federation was divided up into Fevlado (Federatie van Vlaamse Dovenorganisaties) (the 'Association of Flemish Deaf Organisations') and the Fédération Francophone des Sourds de Belgique (FFSB). Since then contacts between Flemish and Walloon deaf people have become less and less frequent and the sign language varieties used in both communities diverged.
In 2000, Fevlado decided on the official name for the sign language used in Flanders, Belgium: Vlaamse Gebarentaal ('Flemish Sign Language' or VGT). The Flemish Deaf Community consists of about 5000-6000 people (Loots et al., 2003).
At the end of the 1970s, Fevlado decided to develop and promote a signed system called 'Nederlands met Gebaren' ('Dutch with Signs') or NmG. It was assumed that NmG could function as a bridge between sign language users and speakers of Dutch. From 1981 a number of initiatives were taken to promote the use of NmG, e.g. the organisation of the so-called
'vrije gebarencursussen' ('free communication courses') for hearing people and the founding of an 'interpreters for the deaf training programme' to train interpreters to work between Dutch and NmG. (Boonen, Van Herreweghe, & Vermeerbergen, 2004). Most of the teachers teaching NmG were deaf, and they had had no training.
In the early 1990s, Fevlado established a (small-scale) teacher training programme and in 1993, as part of a European Horizon project 16 young deaf teachers attended courses, mainly on language teaching methodology and didactics. Within the framework of this programme, the participants travelled to the Centre for Deaf Studies in Bristol where Clark Denmark offered an intensive course in Sign Language Teaching Methods. In part due to his charismatic influence, some of the participants started to doubt the usefulness of NmG and wanted to change their own teaching towards Flemish Sign Language. This, together with some other developments (see Boonen, Van Herreweghe, & Vermeerbergen, 2004), led to Fevlado officially rejecting the use of 'Nederlands met Gebaren' in favour of Flemish Sign Language. Around 1996, both within the 'vrije gebarencursussen' and interpreter training, classes in NmG were replaced by classes in Flemish Sign Language (VGT). This was not easy, as research on Flemish Sign Language grammar was still in its infancy and information on the linguistics of VGT was very scarce.
Flemish Sign Language courses for hearing adults (who want to learn VGT as L2) are offered by Fevlado-Diversus (level 1 and 2; each level consisting of 20 classes of 2 hours each) and several CVOs ('centres for continuing education'). We know of at least seven CVOs where VGT classes are offered. Some deaf schools also offer VGT courses for hearing parents and other family members of their deaf students. However, this is very much 'ad hoc' and limited.
Ghent University offers an elective course 'Introduction to Flemish Sign Language' (4 ECTS) and at the University Language Centre of the same university, there also is a VGT course (30 hours).
At KU Leuven Campus Antwerp, the only Flemish academic training for sign language interpreters is organized. At this university, Flemish Sign Language is integrated in the Bachelor of Applied Language Studies Pogramme (3 year-programme), the Master in Interpreting (1 year) and there also is a specific part-time one year Postgraduate in VGT Interpreting.
Training of SL teachers
Today, more than 20 years after the start of teaching Flemish Sign Language as an L2 to hearing people, there still is no specific formal training for teachers of Flemish Sign Language.
Ever since it was decided to teach Flemish Sign Language instead of 'Nederlands met Gebaren', Fevlado has taken initiatives to support and train its own teachers. In 1996 for example, a course on the grammar of Flemish Sign Language was organized for deaf teachers. Today, Fevlado offers teachers who start teaching Flemish Sign Language level 1 a 12– half-days training and teachers who begin to teach VGT level 2 a six half-days training, mainly concentrating on the grammar of VGT, on didactics and on the content of the course materials.
In the past, two deaf native signers trained to become what used to be called a 'regent' (i.e. a teacher in year 1 to 4 of secondary education) and one of their three subjects was Flemish Sign Language. There are a few other deaf teachers who hold a degree related to education, e.g. they trained to become a nursery school teacher or primary school teacher. Some other deaf teachers (again very few) obtained a so-called getuigschrift pedagogische bekwaamheid ('certificate of pedagogical competence').
Some hearing teachers combine a sign language interpreting training with a (general) teachers training ('specifieke lerarenopleiding') and as such they may be seen as trained/qualified to teach Flemish Sign Language but as said,of Flemish Sign Language.
The first materials to teach Flemish Sign Language were developed by Fevlado at the end of the 1990s. This was done in collaboration with a linguist studying the grammar of Flemish Sign Language. Since then, Fevlado has regularly updated and complemented its materials, collaborating e.g. with the Vlaams GebarentaalCentrum ('Flemish Sign Language Centre') and/or the CVO VSPW in Ghent.
The total number of VGT teachers is estimated at 30 to 35 people.
Research on the grammar of Flemish Sign Language started around 1990. The first books reporting on research results were published in the second half of the 1990s (Vermeerbergen, 1997 and Van Herreweghe 1995). In 1999 the Vlaams GebarentaalCentrum published a "signing book", i.e. two video-cassettes with information on the grammar of VGT explained in VGT. The first (online) dictionary was published in 2004. It is currently being expanded by the Vlaams GebarentaalCentrum.
Flemish Sign Language clearly is one of the un(der)documented signed languages, mainly because there are very few active researchers. Today, research activities are situated at KU Leuven, Campus Antwerp; at Ghent University and the Vlaams GebarentaalCentrum (lexicographical research).
Especially because there is no specific training for teachers of Flemish Sign Language, the question of what is the 'ideal' profile of the VGT teacher is a complex one. One of the questions is whether or not preference should be given to deaf teachers.
Currently, the Adviescommissie Vlaamse Gebarentaal ('advisory committee for VGT', www.adviesvgt.be) is working on its own advice, again out of concern about the quality of Flemish Sign Language courses. This advice is not yet finalized but it seems that the issue of whether or not VGT should be taught by deaf teachers is not seen as all that important. Instead, the advice follows De Weerdt, Salonen and Liikamaa (2016) in stating that a sign language teacher needs:
excellent sign language proficiency,
pedagogical knowledge and
frequent contact with the sign language community.

Importing boat Canada to Michigan (Alpena)...?
I'm getting close to having everything else done, so the boat is bought and insured. My broker in Canada recommends having a captain run the boat from Georgian Bay to Michigan where I'll take delivery. That would avoid the 13.5% Canadian tax and I'm not sure what else. So I'm trying to get ahold of what paperwork I need ready for customs and Coast Guard when I meet the boat in Alpena. I've called and faxed the Coast Guard at Sault Ste Marie, they seem to want to help set things up with their part-time person in Alpena, but it is going slowly. They seem to have lost all the information I gave them, when my captain called later the same day I set things up, they had lost everything.
I spent a decade in the military, I know how things can go, best if I just have everything in a folder for the customs and Coast Guard, even if they have started setting up the process. Where can I get this kind of information?
This is a Cruisers 375, built in the U.S., that seemed important when I called.
Re: Importing boat Canada to Michigan (Alpena)...?
Greetings and welcome aboard the CF, 30West.
Thank you, I'm filling these out and faxing to the Coast Guard, they contact the part-time people at Alpena, hope this works.

The deadline to place a bid in the attempt to secure Amazon’s second headquarters (HQ2) is today, with a large number of North American cities having submitted proposals.
With Amazon having pledged to invest $5bn and hire 50,000 people, over 100 cities and counties have expressed an interest in placing a bid. Further, in the attempt to try and secure the build, many of these are expected to offer the ecommerce giant billions of dollars in incentives.
Here are the front running cities for Amazon’s planned second headquarters
With Amazon’s original headquarters having had a lot to do with the economic boom in Seattle, many vying cities will be hoping the larger second base will have a similar effect.
With Amazon having listed its criteria for the location, considering a large talent pool, a mass transit system and a high quality of life, a number of front runners have emerged in the bidding.
Below is the top 10 frontrunners, as ranked by CNBC:

Law and Order: SVU Season 23 Ep the third season, Danny Q goes undercover as Joe Velasco, a name he used during the time he was a full-time agent. The team quickly catches up with the assailant, Howard, who had impregnated Jenna when she was 15. To know more about what happens, head to our detailed refresher at the bottom. Now, we’re here to share all about episode 3!3 Release Date
‘3 is set to premiere on September 30, 2021, at 8/7c on NBC. After the two-episode premiere, the show is slated to release one episode every Thursday. Every installment has a runtime of around 40 minutes.
Where To StreamOnline?
‘Law and Order: SVU’ season 23 episode 3 can be caught on NBC if you tune into the network at the above-mentioned date and time. It also will be made available on NBC’s official website and app shortly after its original premiere. Additionally, you can catch the action unfolding on subscription-based service Hulu. If you seek live TV alternatives, the show is also available on Peacock TV, Fubo TV, Xfinity, DirecTV, City TV, and YouTube TV. If you don’t want to invest in any of these services, you can catch the older episodes on VOD platforms such as and Vudu while the latest season is additionally available on Google PlaSpoilers
In the third episode titled ‘I Thought You Were on My Side,’ the team might have to compensate for the absence of two pivotal members, Kat and Garland, who are not in the force anymore. So the team might be looking for new people capable of handling their responsibilities. On the other hand, Benson and Rollins will appeal to the FBI and the Organized Crime bureau for the sake of the next case involving a rape victim. The culprit will turn out to be a dangerous mobster2 Recap
In the second episode titled ‘Never Turn Your Back on Them,’ Danny Q is eager to help the ongoing investigation against Howard, so he finds a way to contact Jenna, the only person who could help the SVU team. Danny Q used to be an undercover cop named Joe Velasco, who excels in investigative work, and sure enough, he leads the team to a place where Jenna might be hiding. Just as Detective Kat goes in, she takes two gunshots while Velasco stops Jenna from escaping.
Kat almost flatlines but is brought back through repeated shocks followed by surgery. Velasco and Rollins realize that her father had troubled Jenna when she was younger. Her mother further tells Velasco how Jenna got pregnant with Howard’s baby when she was 15. Benson and Carisi approach Howard with all the evidence they have against him. Howard discloses that Gold is the one behind everything and that all Howard did was follow his orders.
However, as matters turn overly political, Gold remains unprosecuted. Detective Kat has a word with Benson about her future that looks bleak if she stays back in the SVU. She does not plan to follow Benson’s footsteps and spend 20+ years in the division, which she finally understands. The declining ethics of the unit prompts Garland to leave the force, as a result of which McGrath endows Benson with more responsibility.

The "Han wave" had been the KMT mainstream, but that was no longer the case, he said.
The KMT could not even hold on to its base, proof that the "Han wave" could no longer be seen as the KMT's "savior," Lin said.
Naturally, Han's remaining supporters weren't happy about this.
Former KMT Chairman Eric Chu (朱立倫) on Sunday said that the party should not get bogged down in personnel matters at this time and that it should instead focus on "embracing mainstream public opinion and values."
Instead, he said the party should take the time to reexamine itself, calling this a "laborious and brutal process."
The party is in shambles and the political minefield of getting reforms passed in the party congress lay ahead.
Better to let Chiang take the heat and burn his political capital, then take over when the hard part is done.
But the really significant good news for Chiang is that finally New Taipei Mayor Hou Yu-ih has finally weighed in, on his side.
He also called for party unity, and for the party to return to following public opinion.
Again, like Eric Chu he didn't directly mention Chiang's internally controversial plan to finally kill off the 1992 consensus, but like Chu his call to return to what the public will is is clearly a coded way of saying he does.
But former President and KMT chair Ma Ying-jeou, and other former KMT chairs like Lien Chan, Hung Hsiu-chu and others have openly attacked him.
The battle over party reform in the party congress in September is going to be very interesting to watch.

‘The stories of trade unionists demanding that big retailers like Marks & Spencer and Next sign the Accord to protect their brothers and sisters along the garment supply chain, remain moving to this day.
‘The pressure campaign by the affiliates was a success. Within days, 35 retailers signed a legally binding, worker-led agreement that stated in black and white that they now had.
‘It will remain unforgiveable that 1,138 people had to die before big business would take some responsibility for its supply chains. I do believe, however, that in the history not just of the fashion industry, but also of the global labour market and indeed of the world, that the Bangladesh Accord will be judged as a momentous achievement and a testimony to international solidarity amongst organised working people.
‘It was therefore an honour to come and speak with the UNI affiliates in Cape Town – to meet many of the people who stood up to be counted and ensured that we are not gathered here to mourn yet another building collapse, but rather to mark a historic achievement and pledge to keep fighting until the garment industry is made fully fair and safe for its millions of employees.’t R700leaders our ‘going global’.

But if Benetton flouts the scheme, other companies will copy them, and this chance to set a precedent for justice for victims will evaporate.

thx man :-) glad to hear that
I would like to see some other TCG like yu gi oh, duel masters or pokemon crossovers. Dark Magician in a Magic Artwork could be very nice.There's a TCG for it already, but I'd love a Transformers crossover that didn't stop at Optimus Prime, Inspiring Leader. Plus it's a property their parent company already owns so unlike the Walking Dead it won't be a "dead end", har har...
I hate licensing. Originality exists for a reason.
Exiled umfassende Zurückweisung alle Kreaturen und Artefakte oder verstehen ich das falsch?
I looked at your deck, but I find no reason for adding Wastes. If you really have no reason to do it, you should avoid it because that makes your mana so much worse, otherwise i would like to know the reason of that choice.
6 wates are wasted slots.
Couldnt get to 100 cards so i need to find 6 good cards to replace those 6 wastes.Why is self-discard such a big thing in this deck? The only card which will synergize with self-discard is bone miser.
Good point! Any suggestions about how to improve on this?
Question: I am looking at Savai Triome and Path of Ancestry

Padua: City of science and culture.
Padua is the ideal
In its ancient and thanks to the presence of enlightened and ingenious personalities. The University of Padua, which was established in 1222, is one of the oldest in the world (the second in Italy after Bologna University) and keeps several places of great historical value: the anatomical theatre (1594), which is the oldest in the world, the 14th-century Medicine room, Galilei’s chair, the Aula Magna and the 16th-century old cloister, both decorated by students and professors’ coats of arms, the statue of Elena Lucrezia Cornaro Piscopia, the world’s first female graduate (1678).
The botanic garden is another scientific treasure. It was founded in 1545 by Padua University for the study of the ‘simples’, i.e. medical plants. which has never moved from its original settlement. It keeps about 6000 plants: exotic, medicinal, poisonous and insectivorous. The oldest tree here is a Palm planted in 1585 and known as Goethe’s palm, having supposedly played a role in the German writer’s work on the Metamorphosis of the plants. Since 1997 the garden is part of the Unesco World Cultural Heritage.
Many other University museums reveal the continuing influence of this ancient institutionother institutes of research and scientific studies.
