en | N/A | N/A | Greens use Kununurra theft spike to call for scrapping of cashless welfare card
By Eliza Borrello and Erin Parke

The Greens are using new police data to argue the Federal Government's cashless welfare card should be dumped.
The card can only be used to buy basic goods and is aimed at reducing drug and alcohol abuse.
But the Greens argue police figures, which show theft increased by a third in Kununurra in the year after the card was introduced in April 2016, support their case for abandoning the scheme.
"When it [the card] actually is leading, in our view, to potentially more crime as a result of a lack of access to cash, that is a concern," WA Greens MLC Robin Chapple said.
There, theft has gone down.
Ian Trust says it would be stupid to return to a system where cash was just handed out. (Tom Edwards)
But Mr Chapple concedes when he made his request for the information in State Parliament, he did not ask for data on assault rates, child sexual abuse or domestic violence.
"To go back to a system where you just hand out cash welfare, which has basically guaranteed failure over 50 years, is just stupidity," he said.
"Here we are having a go at doing something that's different."
Recipients argue card should be for problem drinkers
Lola Taylor, a Kununurra woman who has been given one of the cards, said there were positives and negatives associated with it.
"It helps me in certain ways … it takes money out for our bills, it's alright for food, helps for food, we can't control it like that," she said.
"[But] when special things come in town for our grandkids we can't use them … like when shows come to town, the circus, the rodeo is in town," she said.
Another local woman Dora Griffiths said the card had "settled the alcohol problems a bit down and the domestic violence, in my area where I live".
Police data not conclusive: Minister
The Minister also referenced the support the recently retired WA Police Commissioner has given to the card.
Karl O'Callaghan said it should be rolled out in other towns, like Roebourne further south, where he said 184 children had been sexually assaulted.

The surcharge will apply to private auto insurance policies at a rate of $2.50-$2.75 per policy per year or 21-23 cents per month. Currently, Massachusetts has approximately 3.1 million private auto insurance policies. This surcharge will generate enough revenue to fund both programs.
Municipal Police Training
MPTC provides vital support for hundreds of cities and towns across the Commonwealth, many of which are too small to operate their own police training academies. In fiscal year 2011, MPTC is funded at $2.5 million, and MPTC is unable to offer comprehensive programming at this funding level. As a result, training programs have not been updated and there are not enough training instructors. Once the surcharge is fully implemented, it is projected that MPTC will have the available funds to streamline programming and expand the curriculum to improve the ongoing training of municipal police officers.
The surcharge on auto insurance for private policies will provide a needed and dedicated revenue stream to support police training. Given the nexus between the auto insurance industry and policing, the insurance surcharge is an appropriate mechanism to fund police training. The industry not only utilizes data from police citations in conducting risk assessments of current and potential policy holders, but also benefits from specialized areas of police work, including but not limited to, accident reconstruction, insurance fraud investigation, auto theft investigation, and OUI enforcement.
A comprehensive training program for municipal police officers and consistent state police classes will improve community and officer safety. |

en | N/A | N/A | Mastic asphalt is a type of pavement material that has good fluidity and is self-levelling at construction temperature for the bridge deck. There are highly accurate methods and indexes for evaluating fluidity and high-temperature deformation resistance for mastic asphalt-design and construction-control systems. The fatigue cracking is one of the main failure forms of bridge deck pavement. Therefore, the method used to evaluate the fatigue properties of pavement materials is also essential. The anti-deformation capability of the mastic asphalt must be increased, that results in poor fatigue performance and consequent failure of the bridge deck pavement to avoid the rutting of bridge deck pavement. In this study, a simple method is put forward for evaluating mastic asphalt fatigue performance. Impact toughness is defined as the area under the load-displacement curve of a three-point bending beam specimen under impact load to evaluate the fatigue performance of mastic asphalt. The four-point bending beam fatigue test is used to verify the rationality of the impact toughness test method. The resultsimpacts toughness index of mastic asphalt produced under different mixing conditions and the accumulative dissipative energy and fatigue life demonstrated by the four-point bending beam test. Therefore, by impact toughness test. Fatigue performance and rut resistance are two ways to evaluate road performance of asphalt mixtures, but they are mutually restrictive. The results show that impact toughness and dynamic stability are inversely correlated. As the impact toughness increases, dynamic stability decreases. Therefore, balancing the fatigue performance and high-temperature rutting resistance of mastic asphalt in the design and quality control is very important. |

He said the rationalization the state is heading to is more linked with the deficit registered in state deficit for the current and next year, and not because of weakness in Kuwait’s economy. Saleh said the surplus in the budget over the past 15 years accumulated in the reserves one year after the other, so the financial situation of the state is strong and does not call for alarm, but as for the annual general budget, it is facing pressure and the deficit needs to be covered.
Saleh explained that despite what the state has in reserves, from the accounting aspect, the surplus is sent to the general reserve, and 10 percent of revenues are taken for the future generations fund, contrary to the registered deficit which needs yearly coverage and cannot be moved to the general reserve without coverage, be it by withdrawing from the reserve or by financing through known borrowing tools. </s> E.L.

en | N/A | N/A | Msrvin Lewis. - Andy Lyons
Cincinnati coach Marvin Lewis said Wednesday that Sunday's game against the Giants is important to his team.
After the Cincinnati Bengals surprised many around the NFL and made the playoffs, many felt this was a team on the rise. Unfortunately for Bengals fans, the team led by second year quarterback Andy Dalton and second-year wide receiver A.J. Green year, as they head into this week's home contest against the Giants with a 3-5 record.
The Bengals got off to a successful start, opening the year 3-1 looking like a team that could repeat their successes from last year. Since that game though, the team has lost four straight contests. Part of the issue has been Dalton, who after only throwing 13 interceptions last year already has tossed 11 this season. Yet, Lewis still believes in his quarterback.
The defense Dalton will go against this week for the Giants has dealt with inconsistencies this season, but have had success creating many turnovers, including a key strip-sack last week against the Steelers that got returned for a touchdown.
"Well, they've done a great job with pressure and creating pressure and takeaways," Lewis said. "'orth."
While Dalton has had some struggles as of late, he is not the only quarterback who has seemed to struggle as of late. Giants quarterback Eli Manning, to many's surprise, has struggled with inconsistent play the past few weeks, especially last week against the Steelers. Still, coach Lewis, knowing the success Manning has had throughout his career, is not buying into the struggles.
"I know he didn't have the best game that he wanted to have a week ago against Pittsburgh, but I don't think he necessarily threw the ball into coverage," Lewis said. "They have an effective offense with effective players and we have to do a good job of limiting their explosive and vertical plays.The quarterback is a fine, fine player."

SSRI activation in children and the misdiagnosis of Bipolar Disorder
A misdiagnosis of bipolar, however, can be devastating. Medication can backfire. Diagnosis can be made too soon. While the adult and senior mentally ill population are at risk, children carrying a misdiagnosis are vulnerable brains in vulnerable bodies, and the medication they’re prescribed can do more harm than good. SSRI’s in particular can cause symptoms of hypomanic or manic states, leading to a bipolar diagnosis. This is called “SSRI-activation” and is not healthy for a child’s brain.
Physical symptoms such as pain, hypersomnia or extreme fatigue
These symptoms must occur every day for at least a week
Potential psychotic symptoms-hallucinations and disconnect from reality
Speaking so rapidly that others cannot understand them and speech may not even follow a coherent train of thought
Inability to focus or sit still
The right medication for the wrong diagnosis
ChilSomeone who is a “slow metabolizer” of SSRI’s will see problems even on the lowest dosage. Parents often panic when their child reacts to medications, or seems treatment resistant. Being the legal guardian, they can easily misdirect therapy and medication, sometimes demanding a higher dose for a child that seems unresponsive.
Medication should be carefully monitored, as should the child’s symptoms. Parents who believe their children are treatment resistant may simply not be treating the proper condition, such as ADHD or anxiety, which responds better to an atypical antipsychotic drug. Making “one change at a time” in a child’s medication is heavily stressed, according to Dr. Birmahbrain is a delicate instrument, and providers who switch multiple drugs at once are putting children at risk.

I do this work because it is the ultimate opportunity to lift people up, and in that way it lifts you up.”
Brian Jantz had been a musician his whole life, but at some point wondered if there was more he could be doing with his talent. “Once I found out about music therapy, it clicked right away, and I haven’t looked back since then. There are days that are emotionally difficult, but ultimately we’re all very excited to be here and very passionate about this. It’s incredibly rewarding.” Brian and Joanna have been at Boston Children’s for 15 and 13 years respectively, providing mentorship to James and Dana. “They have built up the program by showing people the benefits of music therapy and showing families of kids what music has the potential to do,” says James.

3 Which lamps should you buy?

Looking at a typical salt lamp, there is nothing special about them. However, they incorporate all the essential features to transform your home into a therapy room; making you sleep better, improved health, and a host of other benefits. So what more do you want?
It is available in various colors like the reddish-pink and white colors, and with a height of about 10-12 inches.
The world of modern designs is, without doubt, a rotating wheel that incorporates different elements of design. And homeowners are constantly looking to add some color or remodel their homes. And what better way to do that than with a decorative salt lamp?
These lamps are the ultimate piece of the puzzle in creating elegant décor solutions that are aesthetically pleasing and beneficial to your health. From your home to your office, these lamps are being used to redefine interior décor. And you can have your distinct salt lamp in the most pleasing colors and shape to suit your décor.

Salt Lamp Night Lights
Original HIMALAYAN SALT LAMPS are available in only four colors (red, orange, pink, and off-white). And picking the right color to suit your décor style and design is key to having the desired effect anywhere you place them in your home or office.
Red is an exotic color. And for salt lamps, the red is likely to give a superb and stylish finish to your space. Especially for darker rooms, red is the one. When used with hues like black and deep purple, it is capable of so much more. Ultimately, it comes down to your unique taste and style as red has a lot of shades. While red is stylishly bold, it may not be for everyone.
The lamps that give off pinkish glow are famed to provide the most health benefits while also emitting the most amazing glow. Suitable for feminine settings and décor, this lamp is ideal for people who prefer plain and vibrant colors.
Some lamps give off orange glow if you don’t like the idea of a reddish one and pink is not your thing. The glow they emit is warm, rich, and vibrant. Orange salt lamps tend to shine brighter than others which makes it appropriate for white décor backgrounds.
Don’t blame me for saving the best for later. Lamps that emit the whitish glow are said to be the only shade mined from the Khewra Salt Mine, the origin of HIMALAYAN SALT LAMPS. It is no surprise they are a scarce commodity and more expensive than the ones above. These types shine the brightest and do not always create the characteristic cool ambience of the other three colors. However, if you’re working with a generous budget, you would do yourself a lot of good by getting one of these.
Which lamps should you buy?
Fab Glass and Mirror have plenty of options for you to choose from. At the most affordable rates, these lamps are direct extracts from the Khewra salt mine in Pakistan. So, when you buy from us, you are buying the original salt lamp and not some replica.

Anatolio fu magister militum per Orientem dal 433 al 446, raggiungendo il consolato nel 440, che tenne con l'imperatore d'Occidente Valentiniano III come collega.
Costruì la fortezza di Teodosiopoli, lungo la frontiera con la Persia e l'Armenia, a metà degli anni 430; nel 440 diresse alcuni lavori ad Eliopoli in Fenicia e fece ricostruire le mura di Gerasa in Arabia. Sempre nel 440, il re sasanide Yazdgard II attaccò i Romani. Teodosio inviò Anatolio a parlamentare con il grande re. Anatolio raggiunse l'esercito sasanide, scese da cavallo e avanzò a piedi; Yazdgard, informato del fatto che si trattava del generale romano, fu spiazzato da una tale dimostrazione di rispetto e si ritirò nel proprio campo con tutto l'esercito. Qui accolse l'inviato di Teodosio, trattandolo con tutti gli onori e accettando la pace. Nel 442 donò alla chiesa di Edessa un reliquiario d'argento per le ossa di Tommaso apostolo. Fece costruire una basilica ad Antiochia che prese il nome di "Basilica di Anatolio". Nel 443 Anatolio riuscì a stipulare una tregua di un anno con Attila, re degli Unni. Nel 446 terminò il proprio servizio come magister militum per Orientem; l'anno successivo è attestato già come patricius.
Nel 448 riuscì a ottenere la pace con gli Unni in cambio di un tributo annuale di 2100 libbre d'oro. Nel 450 Attila era ancora in guerra contro l'Impero romano. Ad un tentativo di abboccamento, il re unno rispose che avrebbe trattato solo con ambasciatori di rango consolare, e fece il nome di Nomo e Anatolio. Anatolio, che nel frattempo era divenuto magister militum praesentalis (carica che tenne almeno fino all'anno successivo), e il suo compagno andarono ad incontrare Attila, il quale all'inizio li trattò male, ma poi cedette alle loro arti oratorie e ai doni che portavano: Attila avrebbe accettato i termini della pace del 448, avrebbe smesso di attaccare l'imperatore Teodosio II sulla scorta dell'accusa di accogliere i fuggitivi dal regno degli Unni, e avrebbe rinunciato alla striscia di territorio a sud del Danubio ottenuta con la pace del 448; pare che la concessione della liberazione di molti prigionieri romani fosse addirittura una concessione fatta personalmente ai due prestigiosi ospiti. Nel 451 partecipò a diverse sessioni del concilio di Calcedonia, come decano dei rappresentanti imperiali. All'inizio del regno di Marciano, Florenzio e Anatolio sconsigliarono all'imperatore di sostenere la rivolta degli Armeni contro i Sasanidi. Ricevette diverse lettere da Teodoreto di Cirro, con richieste di aiuto.

Patricii </s> La statolatria, espressione che combina la pratica dell'idolatria con lo Stato: definisce "gli atteggiamenti pratico-politici, improntati a una fiducia assoluta nello Stato, nelle sue funzioni istituzionali e nelle sue vocazioni etiche e storico-culturali nell’organizzare, amministrare e dirigere l’intera vita della società e dei singoli individui" e confligge, in modo evidente, con il concetto di Stato di diritto, la più significativa filiazione dell’idea liberale. |

en | N/A | N/A | This list includes some of our favorite offbeat Raleigh engagement photo locations, but we've also got a list of more "traditional" engagement photo location ideas, and a list of engagement photo locations we like in the greater Triangle area.
One extra note, certain locations require permits and/or reservations, so make sure to check with us about that as we finalize your engagement photo session!
I LOVE THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE FAIR. Sorry, but that just has to be in all caps. There's so much color, tons of people-watching, crazy rides, games, and all the fried food you can imagine. If you're game for the chaos, this is one of the most fun engagement locations there is. The caveat of course is that the fair only runs for a limited amount of time. If there's a good local fair though, that can be a similar vibe.
For inspiration, check out Sarah & Josh at the NC State Fair.
A barcade, for those of you who aren't familiar, is a bar plus an arcade. They started to become popular as the kids who spent their childhoods in mall arcades reached adulthood. What more can you want than skeeball and a local draught beer? Or Mortal Kombat plus a whiskey sour? For the couple who loves to have fun together (and is maybe just a tad competitive) this is a fantastic option. Boxcar Bar + Arcade has locations in Raleigh and Durham, and Carrboro has the Baxter.
For inspiration, check out Lindsay & Matt and Allison & Chris.
I've always loved movies, and in high school I worked at a movie theater. A lot of people get disillusioned by their first jobs, seeing behind the scenes, etc., but not me. Movie theaters are still one of my favorite places to spend time. The Alamo Drafthouse in Raleigh is one of the best movie theaters around too. It makes for a great location for engagement photos for movie-lovers.
For inspiration, check out Renee & Kyle's Alamo Drafthouse engagement session.
More of a homebody? True believer that home is where the heart is? Think about it, it's a spot where you're comfortable, you've chosen the decor, your closet's right there for outfit changes, AND you don't have to drive. So if your favorite activity as a couple is snuggling on the couch for your favorite shows, or playing a boardgame at your kitchen table, then let's capture that!
For inspiration, check out Stephanie & Roscoe and Allison & Chris.
I like to tell our couples to think of the engagement session as a date night that a photographer just happened to crash. So think about the things you like to do for dates. We've already covered some options like movies and barcades, but outdoor activities are good too. Most anything you can think of could make for awesome photos.
For inspiration, check out CJ & Alex's paddle board engagement photos.
Where did you meet? Wh I bet you know the answer to all of those because those are big, significant moments! And those places are special. Locations that have a special meaning to you as a couple are a fantastic option, and even if it's something like a bar or restaurant, don't rule it out! You'd be surprised how welcoming most businesses are as long as we're not getting in the way of them doing their jobs.
For inspiration, check out Claire & Greg's engagement session where we stopped by Gravy, the site of their first date.
Okay, this last one isn't a location, it's more of a fun idea that I'd love to do again. Get colorful! Get dirty! Make a mess! The session I'm linking to below included colored powder and I am all about color. I'd love to photograph a couple painting together or cooking together too though. What about squirt guns or paint ball? I am so here for whatever crazy ideas you come up with.
For inspiration, check out CJ & Alex and their color powder. |

Celebratory fundraiser planned for Sherwood Park
May 17, 2017 by Stephen
An event has been planned for Sherwood Park that will celebrate the life of Jenna Mahar while raising money to support a local not-for-profit group.
Love and Sunflowers has been planned as a public event, and everyone is welcome. There will be music and dancing, and those who come out will have an opportunity to remember Ms. Mahar, as well as the people who have touched their own lives and made them special. A cash bar will be set up for anyone who wish to purchase refreshments, and according to the organizers, they have planned or it to be a fun evening for everyone who participates.
The event will be held in the Sherwood Park Log Cabin, and since the venue can only accommodate up to 200 people, once that number has been reached, the doors will close for the night. Half of the proceeds from the function will be donated to the eating disorder unit at the U of A. Those who plan an event such as this can use the services of a local stationery printing company to supply them with printed invitations, tickets and more.
This celebration has been planned for Friday, July 21. The ticket price has been set at $15 each, and they, along with additional details, can be found on the event’s listing. |

en | N/A | N/A | » How can businesses slowly re-open if schools don't go back?
I've been thinking about this all day. A few of my friends are taking great delight I think in forecasting that schools won't go back until August (Scotland). And even at that it will be part time classes to allow social distancing. So an I wrong in thinking if this is correct them business will not be able to return as families/parents will have children at home?
It's been going through my mind all day and I don't know how we can have one without the other. Any ideas?
Believe it or not there is a huge part of the work force that don't need childcare.
I don't know either op, as a single parent I tried WFH with my 5 year old for a month, then asked my employer to furlough me as the stress of trying to juggle both whilst keeping him safe and occupied was too much.
I hope that if businesses do go back that would include childcare options such as childminders, kids clubs etc, and/or that social distancing rules might be relaxed enough to allow family or friends to help.
Basically I'm imagining it'll be like a very long summer holiday, in terms of kids being off and cared for one way or another while parents work.
I guess but also a huge part that does. In our situation I work in a covid ICU ward and my husband works in a small office. When his office reopens it will only be those without children who can return. Will those with children and no childcare lose their jobs as they cannot work?
I don’t know but I’m wondering if the ‘bubble’ of family groups will come in to play here. The only way I can go back to work is with parental help.
@DarkDarkNight me too but both sets of grandparents are over 70 so I don't think that will be an option for us now.
I think that’s the point to some degree, they don’t want everyone rushing back to work all at once and keeping children at home is a way to limit the amount of people working. In a home with 2 working parents, it means that only 50% can go back to work, I appreciate that this will be a lot harder for single parents who I think have had a particularly rough ride having to home school and social distance from their support networks!
@lamplamplamo there is also a significant part of the workforce that do so it’s insignificant! People who have children are used to their children being at school and therefore work the hours they can around school/breakfast/after school club, it will have a big impact on the workforce if businesses are trying to re open and many of their staff can’t be there as schools aren’t re open.
which businesses have reopened?
trumpisaflump only my parents do childcare, and one is over 70 and the other prone to pneumonia and has been hospitalised twice over winter already. I’m not happy with the idea, especially if it’s all day childcare not just the school run.
I’m a single parent and my child’s dad is a key worker so that’s not an option. It’s an impossible puzzle.
@DarkDarkNight this is going to be so difficult for single parents. I know teachers correctly state that schools aren't childcare but the reality is most parents couldn't work without schools.
It’s a worry for me. I am supposed to be starting a nursing degree in September and I have three young children so I was relying on school obviously (plus the before and after school clubs being available). It’s looking unlikely I wi now if part time schooling is the way forward.
Guess I’ll stay at home whilst my husband goes out to work.
Pissed off!!... self indulgent I know - just having a moment.
I'm trying to live just one day at a time and not think too far ahead. Hopefully things will work out for you in September somehow.
Feels wrong to deprive kids of good education.
Tele-learning isn't best for most kids, most of the time.
People who can't work due to childcare will be made redundant and replaced with those who don't need childcare.
So many employers will be closing down, there'll be loads of unemployed ready to step into the shoes of parents who aren't in a position to work.
Yes, it's tough, but everyone will be suffering in one way or another. The govt can't keep paying furlough indefinitely - sooner or later, they'll start to bring in restrictions as to who qualifies and why.
Fingers crossed. I have wanted to be a nurse forever. I’ve just completed a HND in health and social care via the OU which took me four years to complete part time. I have waited for my youngest child to go into year one before I start on my nursing journey. Husband works long hours and no other support available. I passed my interview so I’m just praying things are back to normal by September. In the grand scheme of things there are people much worse off and I am lucky that I am not a single parent. I worry about all the poverty in society that is going to be inevitable due to this.
@Kazzyhoward that works in low qualified jobs (maybe... ), but in my case that would be 80% of the R&D organisation of a multinational, and in my husband’s case more than half of his university department. Not so easy to replace about 300 PhD level scientist for my employer only.
@yurona what is a 'low qualified job'?
Well only half parents would have primary age.
Then theres often 2 parents so 1 can work then other wfh.
Tbh its only another 6-7w anyway that last half term.
So 13w or so left this year. |
en | N/A | N/A | Oppositional defiant disorder is a mental illness where children or teenagers are extremely defiant and disobedient to their caregivers or to authority figures in generalough treatment can help. Parents getting into quarrels with their children is a very common occurrence and is actually quite normal. However, when these quarrels become so disruptive and frequent that they greatly hinder their relationships and cause a lot of mental anguish for both parties, then they may be suffering from oppositional defiant disorder.

may be highly advantageous as it allows the child to confront their parent or caregiver face to face in the presence of an experienced therapist.

en | N/A | N/A | What I like most about Swagger? I like that the book takes on a tough topic (sexual abuse) but doesn't pander in any way. Readers of different ages will bring to the story their own awareness, so a 12 year-old will "get it" in a different way than and 18 year-old, and they will both understand the book in their own way. I'm getting a little tired of "edgy" being the preeminent quality in YA fiction. Sometimes edgy is another word for sensationalism. Swagger takes on a hot topic, but there's no sensationalism in the storyp?
CHAMPION was painfully difficult to write! I thought PRODIGY would be the hardest, but I really struggled with drafting CHAMPION because I underestimate how much work it would take to properly end a trilogy. Still, I've come to like it--after many, many revisions. I suppose my favorite thing about it is that it should give closure to fans who have followed the series so far. I'm very nervous about the ending, though. Closure doesn't necessarily mean a Happily Ever After, and I'm unsure how my readers will take it. Fingers crossed!--they did--but it's far too cold outside, and they know they won't 't make them feel any better about what they't she'd never hear again.

en | N/A | N/A | Well, in a few days’ time all of America will sitting on the edge of their couch, gripped with curiosity. This Sunday the two-year wait for The Sopranos’ 6th season will be over. A collective sigh of relief can be heard from the Space station as I write this. Hospitals will put surgeries on hold. Police are letting the crooks get way. Metermaids are tearing up their ticket books. Whatever it takes, we must all tune in to see what Tony Soprano will do next.
Sure, Tony whacks people at the drop of a dime but see, he doesn’t take chances; that’s why he’s the Boss. Johnny Sack (his NY rival) lost the plot. That’s why Johnny’s sitting in jail and Tony’s running the show. And when “T” isn’t wacking his sister’s boyfriends (or hacking them and burrying them dismembered), he’s taking out a cousin or two or one of his ‘Captians’ who may be talking to the Feds (Like Big Pussy Spampinato did.) I’m looking forward to it all. Anyway, you can find them all down at the BADA BING! having drinks and nachos. Only on HBO.
Also, in a fairly obvious attempt to expand the Baby Lemonade family, both Dave Green (and wife Traci), as well as Mike “Ringo” Harrison (and wife Toni) have both had beautiful babies in the last 2 weeks. Dave and Traci had little “Nevin” nearly 2 weeks ago and Toni and Mike had little “Evie” today! So, we wish them all a very loud and merry Mozoltov!
The Lakers are ready for the playoff push and I have some advice for them; have the offense MOVE around when Kobe’s got the ball. See, Kobe gets the rock and then all those millionaires space out and wait for the ball to go through the hoop. The other team can’t believe their luck and easily triple team Mr. MVP, forcing him to miss a 20-footer. And the other four laker mannequins don’t even bother to rebound sometimes. These guys have NO PROBLEM cashing very large checks.
As if to put a fine point on it, NBA hotshot, Stevie “Franchise” Francis just got traded to his 4th or 5th team in his 6-year career. Getting it Bass Ackwards, he summed it up to teams “obviously wanting him.” The idea that they DIDN’T want him – which is why they keep trading him – is lost on Franchise. But my favorite bit is the other night, in NY’s Madison Square Garden, some wise-ass shouted, “Yo’ Francis, where you headed next!” and chuckled to all his buddies. Without missing a beat, Francis shouted back, “To the Bank.” Spoken like a true NBA baller.
It’s raining here in Los Angeles, which automatically raises the terror level threat. And I was way confused when I read that our folks thwarted an A.Q. plan to fly a plane into the Library Tower in Downtown L.A. One can only assume that the terrorist were privy to our intelligence and was actually trying to fly into the “Liberty Tower.” I know what you are thinking; Hey Mikey, there AIN’T NO LIBERTY TOWER IN L.A.. I know, I know. But see, that’s what the Prez was calling it, over and over. So these rascally Malaysian Terrorist (and how demeaning it must be to be a South Pacific A.Q. Member!) got the wrong info and i figure, by th time they realized they were duped by our brilliant Commander In Cheif, Homeland Secuirty were on to them. Bush: 2/ Terror 1.
Now, I understand why these guys have a thing about tall buildings. Tall buildings represent the male obsession with phallic images, according to Freud. However, the Washington Monument is long and hard so either A.Q. ARE fixed on our pre-occupation with phallic images or the terrorist themselves get a rise out of crashing planes into tall buildings. i can’t put my finger on it. To me, the ugliest tall building in LA is the US BANK building. US BANK used to be my bank until they overchaged me repeatedly and I had to run for the hills – or in this case, bank of america. or BANKRUPTING AMERICA, as the Venice Beach Graffiti Artist have taken to spray painting on the B of A billboard ads. if any of our boys charged with securing us banked at US BANK and knew of a plot, well let’s just say I wouldn’t want to work in that building.
I know you are wondering why i use “A.Q.” Well – and i wish i was a paranoid person…it would make life that much more exciting – I wouldn’t be surprised if the goverment is spying on emails that contain key words. This may very well be for my safety, which i appreciate. But I wouldn’t want to get on someone’s list and have my Fianc’ee delayed (or denied) upon entry just because i was making fun of the Goverment. I’ll put it this way; In the late 1960’s, while playing for UCLA, future NBA hall of famer, Bill Walton, once told the most revered of Basketball coaches, John Wooden, that he had the right to speak his mind about the Vietnam War. Wooden looked him in the eye and said, “yes you do. And I have the right to sit you on that bench for the entire season.” So, ladies and gentlemen, pick your spots WISELY. The life you save might be your own.
Also, for the record, I don’t get involved with fan disputes. I’d prefer that everyone play nice though. i don’t go to the messageboard but every now and again I hear about it. i must say, as much as i’ve written i’ve always tried to be straight with people. Except one area where I unfortunately mislead people. Now, It wasn’t my intention to mislead because I held out hope that it would bear fruit. it just didn’t happen that way. I feel a bit bad though because people were expecting a new Love record but there was never, ever one coming. Some of us were doing our best but it takes a full effort. The more people asked, the worse I felt. As far as the Love Band, we decided not to do that because even though most people wanted it (and we got some gigs offered, including a show case from Warner Brothers), the negative reaction from the small yet vocal fans was enough to show everyone that it just was not a good idea. Bryan were still around? So, I won’t mislead anymore but it was really to cover up the truth of what shape the group was really in at the time. And lastly, I called the birthday boy Wed. to wish him a happy one but his voicemail was full. Oh well, There’s always next year. |

Mustang Island is the northern island of the Padre Island complex ranging from Corpus Christi to Brownsville. The beach is a long white sandy one—and the day we picked to visit had perfect temperatures.
We were mostly by ourselves on the lower portion of the beach and there was some wind–enough to keep us moving but not so much as to make it unpleasant. We strolled the beach, picking up a few shell fragments here and there–that urge is irresistible for Midwest natives—although we have quickly grown accustomed to thinking 50 degrees is COLD and required heavy coats–and definitely no water play.
Near the levees we found fisher people and lots of these little birds pecking away at something that must have been quite tasty amid the moss covered rocks. There were quite a few kites out–they are so fun to watch and so hard to get decent photos.
There were some Hispanic men with their children–tossing footballs, digging in the sand, playing with Tonka dump trucks, and eatimg barbeque sandwiches set up on a table underneath and small tent shelter—no girls except those under six were visible–a guys weekend out—and all were having a blast—their music was a nice selection and quite lively.

The Nats left him in much longer than they should, and the Braves ended up scoring 6 times in the first few innings. Every Brave regular got a hit but Hudson, and Hudson had two RBIs, on a bases-loaded walk and a sacrifice bunt on which Diaz managed to score from third by running when the throw was made to first. Diaz also had three hits and a stolen base, and appears to be coming out of his early-season funk. His seeming platoon partner, Gregor Blanco, was in for Kotsay and added another two hits; this gives Blanco three two-hit games in his first four major league starts, and I'm all for playing him some more. They can platoon him with both Diaz and Kotsay, as far as I'm concerned. The early-inning runs were enough for Hudson, who was strong through 6. By the 7th, though, Hudson was gassed, and we've discovered that once he's done, the bottom falls out very quickly indeed. Bobby probably wanted him to go 7 tonight, but after a walk, a pinch double, an error (a bad throw by Prado, who's terrible defensively, that Tex dropped), a sac fly, and a single, Royce Ring came in for his first appearance in a week and got the Braves out of the inning. Buddy Carlyle pitched a shaky eighth, giving up two hits and a walk, but the Braves got out of the inning on yet more sloppy Nats baserunning. With two outs, Aaron Boone got a swinging bunt to score the Nats' third run of the night, and Chipper threw the ball away trying to end the inning. But Boone decided to try for second, Tex retrieved the ball near the dugout, and Boone was easily out. Acosta's 9th wasn't pretty, but he had some devastating curveballs, and he managed to escape with the lead intact. |

(504) 587-3822;
In the early 1980s, Duran Duran's one-two punch of strapping dance-rock and male-model looks made the British quintet the biggest band of the New Romantic age.
Inspired by David Bowie, Roxy Music, The Clash, The Sex Pistols and the American disco band Chic, Duran Duran surged into MTV music-video stardom. Cinematic visualizations for the hits "Rio" and "Hungry Like the Wolf" matched the band's wild pretty boys against elusive beauties in paradise.
Duran Duran's early critics didn't know that Taylor,sincere about making music. That earnestness animates Paper Gods, which features collaborations with Rodgers, Janelle Monae,music is both classic and new, thanks in part to producers Mark Ronson (Bruno Mars, Amy Winehouse) and Benjamin "Mr. Hudson" McIldowie (Kanye West, Jay Z).
"What defines the Paper Gods album within our catalog is that it has a lot of voices on it," Taylor says. "That's made for a much more beautiful and colorful story."
Rodgers probably is the most important musician to enter the Duran Duran circle. The partnership began in 1983 with the hit "The Reflex," and Rodgers produced 1986's Notorious and The Power Station, a side project band with Robert Palmer and Chic's Tony Thompson.
Duran Duran and Rodgers connected instantly when they met in 1981.
During the Paper Gods tour, Taylor loves arriving at venues early.

en | N/A | N/A | Erin fell in love with the property before she ever stepped inside. After eyeing it for years, Ben found a listing of it in spring of 2021. “I was in love immediately—and that scared me to death,” she told the outlet. “I thought, ‘We don’t need another house…but maybe we do.’”
Coincidentally, Erin was 9 months pregnant at the time and their downtown home was just starting to feel small. The couple wanted a place where their kids, now 1-year-old Mae and 5-year-old Helen, could roam free – just like she did when she was younger. “for arrowheads in the woods,” Erin recalled. “That’s not something our girls can do in townday.”
As the couple gave Southern Living a tour of the home, they shared some of their design inspirations. Their kitchen, for example, was inspired by the British series Downton Abbey. “The kitchen is all new, but I wanted it to feel like it was 1930,” Erin told the magazine. “I wanted it to be like the downstairs from Downton Abbey—a ckind of elegant.”
In August, Ben put his typewriter skills to work when surprising his wife for her 37th birthday. “Happy birthday to the love of my life,” he wrote in a note that Erin shared on Instagram. “This year, I am giving you the most luxurious gift there is. Time.”
It’s safe to say Erin loved the gift. “I should tell you that Ben isn’t perfect. No one is,” she captioned the post. “But he is completely perfect for me. I had a good cry this morning. Husbands: give your wife time for her birthday. 🥹💕” |

The Katfish hosts call that and other compliments a clear "red flag."
But against all odds, when they show up to meet Gyllenhaal, it's actually the actor who greets them. Surprisingly, that's not what Schumer wants, as she complains that because she wasn't catfished, he just ruined her chances of earning MTV fame on the show.

en | N/A | N/A | If you’re wondering whether you should by the newest version of the Kaplan GMAT prep book, then you’ve come to the right place. Kaplan GMAT prep has come out with the GMAT Premier 2017 with 6 Practice Tests book, the newest in their arsenal of GMAT review books. I’ll offer my honest review so that you can decide whether to spend your money (about $30 on Amazon) here or look for another GMAT prep resource.
Kaplan GMAT Premier 2017: Overview
Each year, the major test prep companies trot out the same test prep guides. Exact same content, typos and all — but with one major change: the glossy cover will now have the most recent year on it and a new stock photo model with a forced smile. Unless the test undergoes a major overhaul, which hasn’t happened since the IR section (more of an add-on, by the way), then we can go 15 years with the exact same content, albeit with strikingly different hairstyles on the person smiling away deliriously on the cover.
Yet Kaplan has really worked in the last few years at improving their GMAT guide. They’ve added a diagnostic test at the beginning and this year they even added 40 advanced GMAT Quant questions. For that, I commend them for bucking the trend of simply slapping a new cover on an old book.
And this new guide might have been the perfect “one stop shop” for your GMAT needs were it not for the questions. Indeed, at a superficial level, that is exactly what I imagine a perfect GMAT prep guide to look like: you start off with a diagnostic test (much as the Official Guide does), you offer easy-to-follow explanations (as Kaplan does here) and you break up each section with clearly laid out strategies and practice questions in which you can apply these very strategies.
But success on the GMAT is very much about doing well on GMAT questions–and the questions in this book aren’t that GMAT-like.
Kaplan GMAT: Verbal
This lack of GMAT question verisimilitude especially goes for the Verbal questions, which, to be frank, are not worth your time. Sure, you might get some mileage out of the practice strategies mentioned in this book, but the questions are too easy.
Let’s take Sentence Correction questions. First off, the sentence structure is too basic. You aren’t going to get those multiple clauses chained together and sophisticated punctuation such as em-dash, semicolons, and colons are all but absent. And that semi-sophisticated register of a GMAT question (meaning it sounds like it was written by a college professor) has been replaced by a voice that it sounds more like a well-read high school senior.
On the more difficult Sentence Correction questions, you’ll get two long, long answer choices that are exactly the same, save for one word. Essentially, you’ll have to hunt for that one word. The GMAT will never do this. And so this question, much like most of the difficult Kaplan questions, are difficult in an un-GMAT like way.
So what? Well, the skills you use on the hard official questions aren’t getting sharpened. Instead of looking for such nuances as awkward phrasing or faulty idiom, you brain begins to approach the GMAT in “scanning mode” — A big no-no.
This is but one example. I could go on and on, Kaplan GMAT verbal question after verbal question, pointing out how none of the answer choices are staggered in the way in the GMAT would and that many lack the sophistication of the trap answers. And how about most of these questions end up being flat out easy — something you just won’t see on the GMAT. Or, I can tell you the save your time and money, and stick to the verbal questions in the Official Guide.
There is the Critical Reasoning section, in which I could spend another 1000 words describing why it is subpar and why going through it would likely hurt — or at least not help — your score. (You can ask me in the comments if you want to know more). But basically the content is far too easy. Again, use the Official Guide. Much the same can be said for the reading passages.
Does that mean all of the Kaplan verbal is bunk? No. For the absolute beginner, the lessons are instructive and do provide a reasonable foundation — albeit a basic one. But even that student would be better off totally ignoring the practice questions in Kaplan and picking up a copy of the Official Guide.
Kaplan GMAT Prep: Math
The good news is that, in terms of practice content, the Kaplan Math is slightly better. But that’s mostly because the Verbal is so subpar. I’d say most of the questions in both the diagnostic test and the mini-lessons are good practice for somebody starting out. You’ll get to practice concepts that might be rusty for you and try practice questions that to help you reinforce those concepts. What newbies won’t get from the Kaplan GMAT Premier 2017 with 6 Practice Tests book is how to crack GMAT math questions — that is, the specific methods that can save you lots of time
Then, there are those folks who are not beginners, who have have already spent time with other GMAT sources, mainly official material. If you are in that group, I have one thing to say to you: stay away from this book.
See, you’re probably in the market for the hard stuff done in the GMAT style. But it’s when Kaplan tries to do difficult questions that we end up more with questions that are in the tedious brain teaser category and are totally inelegant. They are not at all the kind of questions GMAT would actually ask. So, essentially, you aren’t getting any questions that are actual hard GMAT questions. It’s only on these questions that you can really practice. By doing the GMAT Kaplan questions, you’ll develop an approach that works for these questions. You’ll look for “Kaplan-like tricks” on the official questions. What you won’t be looking for are the real GMAT tricks. This will hurt both the GMAT beginner and one who has worked for months with official GMAT questions.
Kaplan GMAT Book Review Takeaway
I’m not saying that you should only use official material, that only the GMAC can get it right. For example, if you compare this to the Quant in the Manhattan GMAT Quant prep, you’ll see that, while even harder than the actual GMAT, the writers of the Manhattan questions are seasoned adepts at the GMAT and know the test very well.
The person writing this Kaplan book doesn’t really get all the nuances of the test. So the tough questions, especially those in the advanced GMAT Quant section, are likely to be more frustrating than enlightening. Again, for tough questions, done in the GMAT vein, head over to Manhattan GMAT (this company also provides an Advanced Quant guide section that while super hard is still in line with the GMAT style).
And for any who claims that I’m some grumpy test prep dude out to get Kaplan, keep in mind that Kaplan owns Manhattan GMAT, so a sale for the latter is a sale for the former. I just want to make sure students out there are using the best material, and staying away from the subpar stuff.
Final Word on the Kaplan GMAT Book

I already bought Kaplan 2017 Premiere,
Should I utilise the 7 tests and the questions it has?
Magoosh Test Prep Expert September 30, 2016 at 8:50 pm #
Yes, if you have purchased this book, then you can definitely still utilize its content. The 7 practice exams and questions will be useful when practicing, and you can use the content to help you identify your areas of weaknesses as well. Try to keep an error log, tracking your incorrect problems as you work through problems.

what is the difference between Kaplan New GMAT Premier 2013 and Kaplan GMAT Premier 2014
Chris Lele January 16, 2014 at 4:52 pm #
GMAT guides–whether it is MGMAT, Kaplan, or Princeton Review–tend to change little, if at all, from year to year. So it makes no difference which one you pick up.
domenico June 7, 2012 at 5:49 am #
I totally agree. After months of study (i’m a worker) MGAMT Gmatclub and blog like this or veritas prep are the right tools to ulnocked the gmat at high level.
Thanks Domenico :).

en | N/A | N/A | The earthquake that was the 2007 real estate collapse and subsequent debt crisis in the United States caused an economic tsunami that crashed on Southern European shores. Italy’s economy is in tough shape these days. As of this printing, the formerly free-spending country was teetering on the precipice of credit default and was fighting to remain in the euro zone. Deep austerity measures that have public employees, especially, facing a frightening new reality, have been implemented to save the nation from financial ruin.
It was well known for decades that the Italian government was spending itself into a big problem. It struggled for years, but managed to keep its debt within European Union limits. But even at the height of the crisis, when Greece looked poised to return to its former currency and some bets were on Spain to do the same, even the hardiest cynics deep down could not fathom the euro zone without its third-largest economy. For one thing, the country is now also the world’s fourth-largest issuer of bonds, but also because, unlike some of its Mediterranean brethren, Italy does actually manufacture goods that the rest of the world wants.
Any discussion about Italian production starts in Turin, the industrial city that gave birth to Fiat. The Turin carmaker, founded in 1899, was for many years the motor of the national economy. It sold cars to the average Italian in staggering numbers in the postwar years, becoming Italy’s largest private employer”a title it has not yet surrendered.
This was the final straw in Fiat’s gradual acceptance of the fact that it would have to start thinking small. The adjustment period was painful. But by 2007, it saw some limited success with its more diminutive models (the classic Cinquecento, for example, got a closer look and a new design). And throughout, the brighter stars in the carmaker’s galaxy, Ferrari and Alfa Romeo, continued to shine. This, after all, is what Italy does best: high-end, chic, boutique.
The company swiftly turned around its fortunes in this rapidly consolidating market, and in 2011 it completed its takeover of U.S. carmaker Chrysler when it purchased 6 percent of those shares from the U.S. government.
As in almost all Western economies, mass manufacturing has largely moved abroad from Italy and has been supplanted by the service industry (notably tourism, in this case), but the country can still boast a wide array of high-quality manufactured products, thanks to their cutting-edge design. These small and medium-sized companies have long been the country’s bread and butter and probably represent its immediate future: high-end shoes and clothing, specialized machinery.
The rise to fame and fortune of these once-little ateliers, and how they plan to grow while not relinquishing control, is the second economic story of the budding century. Prada, Gucci, Versace, and Armani have similar beginnings, nurtured by a family or individual, but their plans as grown-up companies are varied.

en | N/A | N/A | The Tracy Wright Global Archive was a project from 2014 – 2019 that inspired artists to explore a burning question and contemplate a new direction in their work by engaging deeply with communities and locations across the globe, seeking answers to their questions and inspiring new directions in their practice.
The program was named after the beloved Canadian artist Tracy Wright, who believed that exposure to travel and communities around the world is crucial for the development of artistic practice.
Tracy was an amazing actor and creator, who worked in theatre and film, and was a founding member of the Augusta Company. Sadly, Tracy passed away in 2010. She had a long history with The Theatre Centre–early work by the Augusta Company, formed by Tracy, Don McKellar and Daniel Brooks, was presented here. We named the program after her because of her belief that international travel and experiences are central to building a great career as a theatre creator. Tracy fully embraced the notions of artistic risk and her fearlessness and belief in rigorous process were incredibly inspiring.
After her passing, Jon Kaplan and Glenn Sumi wrote a tribute to Tracy that gives us an idea of who Tracy was and the impact her work had on the community. “You’d first be caught by the soulfulness of her eyes, the clear, insightful gaze that reached right inside you and commanded–though gently–your attention…” Tracy continues to inspire us today and to inspire artists to ask questions and take risks, wherever that may lead.
Since its launch in 2014, 8 artists, who represent a diversity of practice, have travelled to different locations around the world.

en | N/A | N/A | Recently, with the support of dual stack IPv4 and IPv6, it is pretty exciting for a small country like Malaysia be in the fore runner for new technology like supporting IPv6. As myself been in I.T. technology for years, enabling this and learn more about IPv6 is definitely a must. With the abundance of IPv6 address, perhaps the ISP will be generous and knowledgable on topic of IPv6 since they announced supported on year 2013, and statically allocate a static IPv6 subnet for its user. Here goes the inquiry.
Honestly, after read the response, mixture feeling of awkward and/or feeling retard of this isp staffs just arouse! I can't stop the urge to write an article to bashing.
Apart from that, I can't think of any reasons other than just bashing. I summarize my thoughts in points.
1. WHY would configuration of IPv6 managed by a third party, second party or EMAIL ADMINISTRATOR ?! oh my fucking jesus christ, email administrator for the configuration?! LOL..
2. "Upon checking with our respective department", so what department actually get check?! toy story department?!
This ISP support has always been "amazing". I don't supposed even if I reply the response with explanation, that it will get solve technically or god grace static IPv6 subnet will be granted, justified based on past experience and knowledge know how.
Writing it down here and hopefully and believing that someone knowledgeable in the ISP will get the chance to read user response and for instance, in this case, knowledge enough to assign a static IPv6 subnet for its user. |

'Piggedly wiggledy'
"A kind lady gifted him to me," says John. "He doesn't hear at all and she wanted someone who would always be with him."
"It's piggedly wiggledy," she says. "Everywhere you turn there is something different."
She says: "I grew up in Culloden so we used to come into town in Inverness and come to the market. Now I bring my own children in."
Pointing to shops, she says: "I got my husband's kilt jacket in there and we got our wedding rings in that jewellers down there."
"My cousin was on the other side of the market with fruit and veg. In winter he always took a knife through your turnip to make sure it wasn't frosted. There was also a wee DIY shop and we had a model shop, which was marvellous. They were here for 38 years." |

en | N/A | N/A | Liam Fox is the latest Brexiteer to say that Britain could leave the EU with no trade deal. Labour, meanwhile, are embroiled in another row about antisemitism, as Max Liu reports...
"Labour are marginal [2.06] favourites to win the next general election, but they spent this week mired in another debate about antisemitism in the party."
One of the remarkable things about Brexit is that, when it comes to, those in power know no more than the rest of us.
There was confirmation of this frightening state of affairs this weekend when Liam Fox, the international trade secretary, announced that a no deal Brexit is odds-on. This might be news to some people, but it's not to political gamblers, as no deal is 1/2 on Sportsbook and has been for weeks.
In July 2017, Fox said making a new deal with the EU would be for Britain "one of the easiest in history." A year later, he's resorted to simply quoting odds when asked what's going to happen.
What Fox should have said was: "A no deal Brexit is now odds-on... For this reason, let's call the whole thing off, explain to the public that it would be disastrous for Britain, admit that we've been irresponsible and sacrifice our political careers in the national interest."
Of course, Fox doesn't say anything of the kind because, for one thing, it takes a big person to say they were wrong, and for another, Fox is a Brexit fundamentalist who, like certain others of his ilk, cares more about self-preservation than the national interest.
Predictably, Fox blames the "intransigence" of Michel Barnier and the other EU negotiators. Fox has a point - EU leaders have entrenched ideas about what they need to do to protect their union (just ask the Greeks) which can make them irrationally stubborn negotiators. But the present impasse is the UK government's fault, as they knew all along who they were dealing with.
Fox's statement comes in the same week ash." A few months ago, the government would have strenuously denied Carney's claim and accused him of being alarmist. Now the government knows that, unless Brussels makes concessions and accepts Theresa May's Chequers plan, there is chaos on the horizon.
That horizon is getting close, with the UK today trading at [1.77] on the Exchange to leave the EU in just over seven months. After that, Britain's best hope, it appears, is a prolonged transitional period during which a change of government could bring about a rethink.
In spite of Alastair Campbell's efforts (the former-spin doctor is reportedly trying to recruit like-minded Remainers to form a new centrist party), for a u-turn on Brexit we probably need a Labour government to come to power. With more weeks like this one, though, the odds on that happening could lengthen.
Jeremy Corbyn has acknowledged that Labour has "a real problem" and vowed to root out antisemitism. Not to be outdone, deputy leader Tom Watson this weekend said Labour faces "eternal shame" over the antisemitism in its ranks.
Corbyn's supporters have launched a #WeAreCorbyn campaign on Twitter, designed to flag up his achievements in fighting discrimination as an MP for 35 years. It shouldn't be impossible to see that two things can be true at the same time: Labour has a problem with antisemitism and Corbyn's opponents are using it as an excuse to undermine him in increasingly cynical ways.
The whole thing is depressing. Time will tell if it costs Labour at the ballot box. My own view is that they can still win the next general election and I wouldn't rule out backing a Labour majority at [3.2].
UK Politics: Is there a battle on for No.10? |

There are 10 months left until the primaries start and most Democratic voters either aren't paying attention or haven't made their decision yet. But early money is important and, combined with the poll numbers, it paints a picture of white men leading the pack — although Harris has had an impressive climb, especially when it comes to donations. Opinion polls show that Democrats prioritize an "electable" candidate who can beat Trump, and many voters see a successful challenger who can hold their own in the boxing ring with Trump — who is sure to fight dirty — as a white man. Based on our interviews with voters, this is especially true for older women. While women who support Biden, Beto, or Bernie generally say that they think it's important for the country to elect a female president one day, they don't think November 3, 2020 will be the day.

Since the BJP was voted back to power in May 2019, many Indians have been persuaded to believe that the integrity of India is in danger and there are groups that are working actively to break up the country.
Protesters at Shaheen Bagh, New Delhi (Express photo)
The following question and answer from the record of the proceedings of the Lok Sabha on February 11, 2020, would be a source of merriment if it were not a sad commentary on the utterances of BJP leaders, including the Prime Minister, the Home Minister and other ministers:
(a)State Law Enforcement Agency/Police Force or any Central or State Intelligence Structures;
(b)provided by the ministry or other law enforcement/intelligence agencies;
(c) whether the Ministry of Home Affairs/NCRB or any other law enforcement or intelligence organisation ’;
(d) whether anyor other Acts) by the Ministry of Home Affairs or any other law enforcement agency/intelligence structure is contemplated against the members of the ‘Tukde Tukde Gang’; and
(a) to (d): . These groups were given various names at different times — Naxalites, Maoists, Islamist terrorists, Urban Naxals, etc. After a student-organised demonstration at Jawaharlal Nehru University (that led to slapping of false sedition charges against Mr Kanhaiya Kumar and three other student leaders), the protesting students were labelled as the tukde tukde gang. That label has been stuck on every group protesting against the BJP’s policies and actions. That label has also entered political discourse — even of the urbane Foreign Minister, Mr S Jaishankar, sadly.
Given the speed with which the label was stuck on various groups, people were led to believe that tukde tukde gangs actually existed and were a grave and growing threat to the country. Academics, economists, writers, artists, students, trade unionists, farmers, unemployed youth, women and children and, of course, political leaders belonging to opposition political parties earned the distinction of being members of the tukde tukde gang. Women and children camping in were the most recent entrants to the tukde tukde gang. The list grew every day.
Glitch in the Plan
In the just-concluded elections to the Delhi legislature, the PM spoke at two rallies and railed against the tukde tukde gangs. Newspapers, television channels and social media sites flashed the pictures of the ‘gangs’. There was, however, one glitch. The members of the tukde tukde gangs were carrying the National Flag in one hand and a copy of the Constitution of India in the other! Besides, from time to time, they sang the National Anthem with great gusto! The rhetoric that was thrown at the people and the pictures and images they saw on the media contradicted each other. Each section of the people seemed to believe what it wanted to believe.
There is nothing unusual or inherently wrong about a right-wing ideology. It is also not uncommon that right-wing leaders are staunch believers. It is only when right-wing leaders politicise their religion and attempt to divide people on the ground of religion (‘my religion vs your religion’) that the Constitution is violated and social harmony is disrupted. The BJP has done just that, and in the last six years has placed in the government and in other state institutions persons who are not just religious but persons who will weaponise their religious beliefs to spread fear and uncertainty among large sections of the people.
As Dr“… ”
The fight is between politicisation of religion and upholding the secular Constitution. The fight is continuing on the streets of Delhi, Lucknow, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Pune, Kochi and many small towns and in universities and elsewhere. The people spearheading the fight are not the usual persons belonging to political parties: they are women and children who normally stay at home, youth who are disappointed with successive governments and students who have become cynical about politics itself. They have braved cold weather, water cannons, lathis and even bullets (23 people died in police firing in Uttar Pradesh alone). P Chidambaram

en | N/A | N/A | We will get exactly what we give, but we have to give first!
I began doing so immediately and could not help but notice the increase in my salary and, subsequently, the amount of my Kingdom gifts. Imagine the thrill of meeting my wife, years later, and discovering that she utilized the same envelope system!It was meant to be!
There are many ways in which we can give …
From what we have learned on our MKMMA journey, we have to decide for ourselves just what we are prepared to give, examine our reasons for wanting to give and further more when are we going to start giving it…
The dictionary says this...p going forward….I know this sounds simple enough but we can probably all relate to the things which we allow to yoyo in our lives, maybe it's the diet we start, the fitness regime we embark on, the 90day plan to build our business, or the books we purchase to help us change our lives. We begin with the best of intentions, fully focused and ready to go, only days or weeks later having moved forwards to find we have taken one or even two steps back!We have allowed LIFE to get in our way!The truth is, LIFE will always get in the way and stop us moving forward if we allow it to. So how do we prevent this?
It takes time to create and adjust our focus until we have such a clear picture in our mind that it feels as though it has already happened.It is essential to see everything in minute detail.So if we are to create our dream house for example it is not enough to have a picture in your head, it is important to spend time meditating on this to see where the house is, what it is constructed of, what the grounds are like, how you will furnish and decorate it, what are the floor coverings like, the style of the kitchen, how many bathrooms does it have…
I am determined to keep moving forwards…..it is impossible to move in 2 directions at the same time, so I choose forwards!
Whatsoever you ask for : http://www.youtube.com/watch?
Desire: To long or wish for; to request or to ask for. You only have to watch the actions of a small child visiting Santa,believing that the thing he wants most for Christmas will be delivered…. does he just send in his request and believe that it will happen?
Have: To have in ones possession; to hold in the mind; to experience are just a few of the definitions. How great does it feel when you actually have something you have desired?One of my goals for this year was to have all my children together for a family meal, we have not all been together for many years and this was a real desire. well after months of waiting I finally got my wish …..My 5 children and their partners celebrating Christmas!
So if we are to believe that that this is true, then how do we go about getting what we want?
It is clearly not the case that if you desire even £500 and pray for it to arrive in the mail…..I would guess that most of us don't get this!So how can we be sure that what we ask for we do get?
The actions we have been asked to take whilst on the scholarship are giving us the tools required to achieve the consistent, persistent action required in order for us to knowI am loving the new scroll marked 111, I will persist until I Succeed !This truly has been something I have needed to remind myself of…
At one time in my life persistence came easy to me, in my work I was persistenwas all to familiar with the terrible 2s and the challenges they presented, and the need to stay focused and fair. You only have to walk around a supermarket and everyday we come across toddlers or teenagers persistently making demands on their parents, it can be a battle of wills and it is debatable who will prove to be the most persistent and be able to claim…..I will persist until I succeed!
Over the past 10 years as a single parent I have found myself been less persistent in the things I do. I have flitted from one job to another trying to make the best of situations in my own strength. My sanity has been stretched to the limits as I have been impatient and not had a clear vision of what I wanted in life. Like many people, I have been persistently trading one merry go round for another!
A few weeks ago someone posted on my face book a Katy Perry song "ROAR" I hadn't come across it before but I was asked to listen to the lyrics and must admit I found it inspiring. The following week I took my daughter to Zumba class and low and behold one of the songs was "ROAR" so now I am able to get into the groove with "ROAR" as I remembered then about learning whilst exercising (athletically) and started to run through my DMP in my head. Then just today, I had my daughter in the car and had the radio on which is very rare for me as I usually have a motivational CD playing….. and yet again "Roar" came flooding through the speakers only this time the thing that came to mind and has stuck with me is I will persist until I succeed as I listened to the lyrics…
Reading this affirmation to myself continuously throughout the day has helped me this week to keep my mind focused. I not only added it to my index cards but have it written on a card in my dashboard so its a constant reminder to me as I travel. It makes me feel invigorated and motivated I also downloaded some music http://www.youtube.com/watch?
So how hashelped me?
Well continuing on the 7 day mind diet I learned that I am the sum total of my thoughts; and so have to find a way to entertain only good thoughts. It is not easy in the beginning to stop negative thoughts or beliefs entering our mind but I can learn not to entertain the thoughts and instead repeatand also to substitute any negative thoughts with positive ones as Frederick Elias Andrews suggests Affirm the good and the bad will vanish. BUT what is the significance of ?
For me, I joined the MKMMA scholarship after reaching a crossroads in my life. I have been a single mum for 11 years and my youngest is now 18. I recently walked out of my job and decided it was time for me ly. The hardest thing for me was in actually deciding what I want for my future and I had to do this before I could make the changes in my life. I have set goals in the past and have achieved things on it.So you might well ask why am I doing the scholarship?
We learned this week that there are 3 main things that people want in their lives Health, Wealth and Love, and if we were granted three wishes these are what people wish for…
In all things, acquiring true health, wealth and happiness we must first know the TRUTH. The truthTer, therefore we are able to connect ourselves to a power which is irresistible and which sweeps away any discord,doubt or error because the "Truth is mighty and will prevail" If I attach the truth in all that I do, say and think I can affirm that…
To improve my mental health I am embracing the 7 Day Mental Diet produced by Emmet Fox who states that this is the food which furnishes my mind and determines the sel which makes me and my surroundings what they are. Everything I am today, my thoughts and feelings are as a direct result the next week and next year will be conditions by the thoughts and feelings I choose to entertain from today. How amazing is that!
Once you begin to realize that when you change your mind your conditions must also change. This is possibly the most important thing in my whole life!
" for every book on my Hippocampus there will be a corresponding book on my amygdala"
However the bookcase on the right is named the Amygdala and is constructed of solid oak and built by a carpenter. this book case contains all the book of their life that makes them who they are all the emotions and feelings about relationships, events, inspirations. This bookcase is not so easy to shake and the person with dementia can hold onto these feelings and emotions for much longer. So Isn't this what Mark has been telling us week by week ?Whatever we must do and think we must do with GUSTO and emotion…why?
Emmet Fox does not suggest this will be easy if fact he says that physical fasting would be mild in comparison. But will it be worth it?
We are all guilty of it as some time…….and from my own experience it's not usually a conscious decision. When I worked for a BOSS, I knew what my job description was, what was expected and I knew I was more than capable of doing the job, in fact I would say I even went the extra mile, not to please the BOSS but to provide the clients I worked with the best possible care i was able to give. So why in my network marketing business am I more inclined to PROCRASTINATE?
I am not lazy, I treat my business as a job but there are things I put off and consistently put off and yet I know without a doubt the importance of the compound effect. I have read Darren Hardy's book The Compound Effect in which he says "It harder to get started than it is to keep going, so you must be consistent to keep your momentum going. "When you start thinking about slacking off on your routines and rhythms, consider the massive cost of inconsistency. It is not the loss of the single action and tiny results it creates; it is the utter collapse and loss of momentum your entire progress will suffer."
Albert Einstein says
To demonstrate this he uses the story of THE PENNY……
Not everyone will want to save for 30 days to get the best results,NOW but what is it that makes us think that this is the best way.?
We have been influenced our whole lives by the people who have taken care of us, taught us at school, our friends, what we read in the newspapers and what we see on TV. We are constantly bombarded by get rich quick schemes and I want it now mentality!Most of us have been tempted by this at some points in our lives, and it can be very hard to make a decision to change what we have always known or stop going along with our old habits. However what we have learned through MKMMAhard work, consistently over time, doing what most of society refuse to do. The value of the things we are learning is already beginning to show results, I still have a long way to go and me most. I know that What I feed my mind, the people I spend time with, and my environment will all conspire to bring me closer or further from my goals. I have noticed over just a few weeks the new people coming into my life are more positive and have focus for their own lives. I am so excited to see what happens next …
But what springs to mind when we think about LOVE?
Usually we conjure up a picture of hearts and flowers and romance. We only have to visit a card shop,watch a film on TV or read a novel to see these images reflected. The dictionary says …
So What does Og Mandino refer to when he ?
We are also commanded to Love our neighbours as ourselves, and how should we Love ourselves?
But I promise myself to greet this day with love in my heart!
We all have them, we are overwhelmed by other people wanting to give us their opinion. So what is an opinion?
So why, do we feel free to give or accept someone elses opinion unless they are an expert in a particular field?
This exercise I found to be very interesting and indeed entertaining. Spending time with friends or chatting with people on Facebook was most interesting. I had lunch with a friend from my school days, and was surprised during the course of our time together, how manytimes my friend gave me her opinion about different topics of conversation, on various topics, kids, finances, relationships and even shopping!
well, I have always valued my friends opinions and maybe always taken them as gospel, after all doesn't she have it all?
A lasting marriage, over 30 years, 2 kids now grown up and both working for a living, the house, her and her partner both working, take 2 or 3 weeks holiday a year?I have been unaware over the years of what a strong character my friend has, and I wouldn't have her any other way. But is she an authority on any of the subjects we talked about?
Then quite honestly No!
But I have always listened and taken on board the things she has said because she is my friend. How often do we do this?
When you look on Facebook and look at what people have put as a status, maybe its a crisis they are experiencing, just an opinion, a frustration, even something inspirational….what's the next thing you see?
OPINION!OPINION!
After all, if we have financial challenges who is likely to give us the best advise….A friend, who may also be in a similar situation or a financial adviser ?
If we are sick and tired of our lives, who would be the best person to give us advise?
Beware of people offering you their opinion especially if you haven't asked for it after all they are basing what they say on all the things they have encountered in their lives. After all, if we wanted to build a physical house for ourselves wouldn't we choose only the best materials?
OH what a week!I don't know how many people are on the MKMMA scholarship…
For me this week, It has been really tough!Mark began last weeks webinar by saying that many people would quit this week!
The thing that has stuck with me all week was the challenge to give 100% or we may as well quit!
when I examined my PPNs, True health and Helping people I had to acknowledge that I was far from giving 100%. Helping other people for me is somewhat easier than gaining and remaining in True Health. Why is this?
However simple this may be…..isn't it human nature that in a relationship, you give your all…. don't we want something back ?Is it therefore wrong to expect our partners to also give 100% ?
Achieving True health…..this is the main area I have to work on. I have a target wight and size I want to achieve before Jan 2014, this should easily be achievable but there are obstacles I allow to get in my way. When I am stressed, I reach for the chocolate bar, when I am sad, it's the ice-cream. To overcome this and eliminate these bad habits, I have now made a promise to myself, something I am not used to doing… |
en | N/A | N/A | Let the Doctors Do the Diagnosis
Posted: Jul 25, 2008 3:00 PM
What is happening in Washington with the mortgage market is unimaginable. We are having the politicos, the nations bankers and some of the heads of the lending institutions figuring out the problem with the mortgage market and writing the prescription for recovery. Let me show you how this could work in the real world. I graduated from two top schools with a B.A. in Economics and an M.B.A. in Finance. I was active in all types of sports, so would you like me to diagnose and prescribe a cure for your tennis elbow, sore back or the knee that doesn't cooperate any more? I don't think so even though I have good credentials. When we have had the pilots strike on an airline should we just send in management to take over flying? Seems a bit ridiculous! How about we as a nation give incentives to people to buy a Hummer automobile as their sales are way down? Naw, that doesn't seem too wise either.
Then why are we having people who do not know how our industry works trouble shoot and decide what should be done to put it back on the right track? The main thing wrong with the industry was the excesses that led to all kinds of problems. Before we diagnose what caused those excesses we have a chicken and egg problem to solve. Was the housing boom caused by the mortgage industry, Wall Street, the Federal Reserve, the building industry, the press or Santa Claus? (I put Santa on the list to try to throw you off).
If you ask John Q. Citizen they won't even hesitate before telling you that my industry, the mortgage industry, gave loans to anyone who wanted one and never even checked anything but the "fog on the mirror" test. As bad as the housing problem is, and it is bad, we still have over 90% of the homeowners in America making their payments and remaining in their homes. In my opinion it was each one of the above that caused the problems all of which could have been partially avoided if they had fulfilled the main part of their job which would be regulating their turf. But they didn't because everyone had something to gain by the housing boom.
Now back to the problem: How to fix the mess and put safeguards in to ensure that it won't happen again. You start by first thing that must return is stated income loans, or bank deposit verification, for self employed borrowers. I didn't say employed, I said "self " employed borrowers. Why? Because if you don't you are setting up for a new wave of problems from people who never did anything wrong. We have been told forever that the backbone of this nation is the thousands of small business owners who employed the vast majority of the workers in our country. We have given them all types of ways to make money including the ability to pay less taxes as a trade off for the risk they are taking and the employment opportunities they create. Because of this they do not show sufficient earnings, in a classical way through their tax returns. Does that mean they are bad borrowers? Hardly. So why are we trying to punish them now?
Time prohibits me from going on but I will discuss this subject in greater depth in subsequent columns. This is not the time for borrowers to sit back and take whatever is being dished out. This is the time everyone who will participate in the mortgage market needs to know what is happening and either applaud it or voice your opposition. Otherwise you will be forced to live with the results and when I say live, I mean live. |

“We are closing for good,” says Helen Ng, owner of Amazing 66, as she looked at the brand new sign board on her restaurant, unwilling to take it down. The restaurant has been operating in Chinatown for 14 years, and after a renovation last August, Ng hired back its reputable original chef.
“The business was picking up. And, then, the pandemic came,” she says.
Ng says the restaurant closed temporarily on March 15 to cope with the pandemic.
“Maybe we’ll have to close too,” Zhu says.
He also calls for the city to reduce property taxes for landlords.
Chen says he doesn’t believe parking would be made worse by pedestrian-only streets, but says the city can help alleviate any issues by regulating how its public employees drive and park. He says previous studies by the Chinatown Partnership, the organization that runs the BID, found more than 700 parking spots around Chinatown are typically taken by city employees with parking placards in mid-August, when schools are not in session.

It's not easy, it doesn't feel natural, to work so hard, and so incessantly, and under such unrelenting pressure, at this age. One doesn't feel cut out for it somehow; there isn't the energy. I don't know how much of this is really based on nature and how much on culture, the expectation programmed into us by the 1950s. My brother David and I were in Florida — he's "only" 51 going on 52 — both scrambling to keep up with our work, and I said to him, "You know, people used to retire at this age." Maybe the simple lack of precedent for this lifelong productivity is part of the problem. Clearly, if it's bad for us, it's also good for us. So go figure.

en | N/A | N/A | Three O. T. Bonner Middle School math teachers are currently participating in a research project called Gateways to Algebraic Motivation, Engagement and Success (GAMES) through Virginia Tech. Mrs. McDowell, an eighth grade math teacher, and Mrs. Hatch and Mrs. Motley, two seventh grade math teachers, are taking part in this study. According to the parent/guardian permission forms that were sent home with students, the purpose of the project is “to investigate whether educational mathematics (e.g. fractions) and cognitive challenge (e.g. memory, attention) games can be used to promote middle school students’ mathematics proficiency and engagement.”
Students participating in this research study will be divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. Students in the experimental group will work with iPod Touch or iPad games, which are designed to help students learn fractions and other aspects of algebra. Students in the experimental group will also be provided with paper and pencil surveys as well as quizzes designed for the same purposes. Students in the control group will receive instruction as usual.
Students will be actively involved in different sessions of this research study throughout the duration of the 2012-2013 school year. VA Tech investigators Michael A. Evans, Osman Balci, Mido Chang, Kirby Deater-Deckard, and Anderson Norton hope to learn from this project. They wish to gain a better understanding of how educational and cognitive challenge games affect students’ engagement in math and academic performance.
Mrs. McDowell, one of Bonner’s eighth grade math and Algebra I teachers, said, “I am excited about our new technology. We’ve never had iPads in the math classroom!” Mrs. McDowell’s positive attitude about math and technology integration is sure to spread to her students to ensure they are equally excited about learning math this year. |

Once upon a time at the produce section of a supermarket, a little girl confided to me that she had no idea that little plants could grow on carrots. This sympathetic scene portrays the split between the food we consume and the environments that produce it.
Biodiversity fuels this relationship between insects and food. A study led by Alexandra Klein on highland coffee (Coffea arabica) from Sulawesi (Indonesia) demonstrates this concept well1. The German team showed that the amount of coffee beans produced in 24 agro-forestry sites increased with the number of bee species visiting the flowers (Fig. 1). Read the rest of this entry »
Here's another one from the bee man, Tobias Smith (PhD candidate at the University of Queensland). Tobias recently blogged about bee basics here on ConservationBytes.com (something I highly recommend for anyone interested on brushing up on bee facts and dispelling a few myths), so I asked him to follow up with this very important piece on the future of pollination in Australia. It concerns a nasty little invader recently dubbed the "flying cane toad" (not my analogy).

en | N/A | N/A | Abstract The signals that square measure wont to carry digital knowledge via underwater channel square measure the acoustic waves as a result of they will cover long distances and therefore the radio signals as magnetic force waves don't seem to be used as a result of they cover short distances. From the past several decades, cabled submersibles were wont to discover the large and hydrothermal vents, cabled submersibles compete a serious role within the underwater communication and to beat the issues in those, the underwater wireless communication came into existence.
Index Terms- Underwater wireless communication networks (UWCNs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), international Positioning System (GPS), Frequency hopping unfold spectrum (FHSS), direct sequence unfold spectrum (DSSS), underwater device positioning
Securing Underwater Wireless communication Networks (UWCNs) area unit deep-seated by sensors and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) that move to perform specific
applications like underwater observance Coordination and sharing of data between sensors and AUVs create the supply of security difficult. The aquatic surroundings is especially liable to malicious attacks thanks to the high bit error rates, giant and variable propagation delays, and low information measure of acoustic channels. Achieving reliable repose vehicle and sensor-AUV communication is very troublesome thanks to the quality of AUVs and therefore the movement of sensors with water currents. The distinctive characteristics of the underwater acoustic channel, and therefore the variations between underwater detector networks and their ground primarily based counterparts need the event of economical and reliable security mechanisms.
II . NECESSITY
Significant cost of deployment
At, present we are using the wireless technology and the underwater wireless technology is a farthing to imagine; but the researchers are working on it and within the underwater wireless technology the acoustics waves square measure used rather than magnetic attraction waves. The acoustic channels have the subsequent characteristics:
Severe multipath and
Low speed of sound propagation
When a proof is propagated through acoustic channel then it's received by the receiver through an instantaneous path or surface reflection or bottom reflection and this happens because of ray bending of the acoustic waves. The acoustic modem applied science offers two types of modulation and they are as follows: offers 2 styles of modulation and that they are as follows:
phase shift keying (PSK) with non-coherent detection
Frequency shift keying (FSK) with coherent detection
With the event within the modem subject area, detector subject area and transport subject area the ocean engineering is moving towards integration of those tools into autonomous
networks. As per the applications, the Underwater
network topologies area unit 2 sorts and that they area unit as follows:
Decentralized network topology
Frequency Shift Keying as applied to UAC
FSK is the earliest form of modulation used for more advanced forms of UAC by acoustic modems. The earliest forms of UAC prior to FSK have been by percussion of different objects underwater and this method has been used to measure the speed of sound in water.
FSK sometimes employs 2 distinct frequencies to modulate knowledge. as an example, Frequency F1 to point bit zero and frequency F2 to point bit one. thence a binary string will be transmitted by alternating these 2 frequencies counting on whether or not it's a zero or one. The receiver will be as straightforward as having analogue matched filters to the 2 frequencies and grade detector to choose if a one or zero was received. This is often a comparatively simple sort of modulation and thus utilized in the earliest acoustic modems. but additional refined rectifier
victimization Digital Signal Processors (DSP) will be utilized in the current day.
The biggest challenge FSK faces within the UAC is multi-path reflections. With multi-path(particularly in UAC) many sturdy reflections will be gift at the receiving hydrophone and therefore the threshold
detectors become confused, therefore severely limiting the employment of this sort of UAC to vertical channels. Adaptive equalization tries to model the highly reflective UAC channel and subtract the effects from the received signal. The success has been limited due to the rapidly varying conditions and the difficulty to adapt in time.
The signals that square measure accustomed carry digital info through AN underwater channel don't
seem to be radio signals, as electro-magnetic
waves propagate solely over extraordinarily short distances. Instead, acoustic waves square measure used, which might propagate over long
distances. However, AN underwater acoustic channel presents a communication system designer with several difficulties. The 3 identifying characteristics of this channel square measure frequency- dependent propagation loss, severe multipath and low speed of sound propagation. None of those characteristics square measure nearly as pronounced in land- based radio channels, the very fact that creates underwater wireless communication extraordinarily tough, and necessitates dedicated system style
Fig 1.Performance analysis of underwater-wireless communication
The applications of the underwater wireless communication are as follows:
it's additionally utilized
in pollution management and climate recording.
It also has the application in the detection of the objects on the ocean floor.
Underwater wireless communication is also used in environmental monitoring and collecting of oceanographic information.
it's the applying in underwater
archaeology, search and rescue machines and defense..
It is also used in seismic monitoring, pollution monitoring and ocean currents monitoring.
The underwater wireless communication is used
in the equipment monitoring and control and also in the autonomous underwater vehicles(AUV).
It is also used in remotely operated vehicles (ROV).
It also has the application in the acoustic navigation technology for multiple autonomous underwater vehicles.
It is used in solar-powered autonomous underwater vehicles.
It is also used in Environmental monitoring like climate recording, pollution control, prediction of natural disaster harbor protection.
VI .ADVANTAGES &DISADVANTAGES
To detect pollution monitoring
The increasing pollution in water makes it more difficult to guarantee the fundamental right to water. With the draining of oil, minerals, chemical products, phosphate and nitrate into water. Most causes of water pollution. That is we developed a completely decentralized ad-hoc sensor network for the ocean pollution detection.
It avoid data spoofing
Spoofing means malware or attack. It avoid unauthorized access, third party cannot steal the data or hack the network. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves that used for longdistance communication. It is a high transmission power.
Point to point communication is a connection between two nodes or two end-points.it is not a point to multipoint communication because if the use of led or laser.
It cant be easily recharged by non-conventional energy resources like solar energy. So under water sensor nodes are battery driven.
Propagation delay suggests that quantity of your time that the signal travels from sender to receiver. It can be Computed because the magnitude relation between link length and propagation speed.
Multipath and fading problem
Fading channel may be a channel. Multipath weakening affects most kinds of radio communication links in one type or another. Multipath weakening will be detected on several signals across the frequency spectrum .it is additionally cause distortion to the radio signals these square measure vary long.
The bit error rate is that the range of bit errors per unit time. The bit error magnitude relation is that the range of bit errors divided by the full range of transferred
bits throughout a studied time in travel.
These networks square measure utilized by hydrocarbon grid that's inbuilt the
ocean. they're additionally utilized by fish catcher;
they connect their ship with this network for normal update associated with weather. Submarine works strictly on the affiliation of those networks. Defense like navy additionally used this network for safeguarding country border. Theses
network square measure used for weather fore casting, pollution management,
guarding ocean animals, analysis associated with the ocean animals, finding new species etc.

en | N/A | N/A | Connexion offered a satellite-based internet connection which enabled internet connectivity even on transcontinental flights. Started with plenty of fanfare 6 years ago, Boeing's Connexion service won the "der" award from the World Travel Awards organization in London for 3 years running. ccording to data released by Boeing, "more than 20,000 passengers have used the Connexion by Boeing service during its first year of availability." 20,000 certainly sounds like a big number, but as an absolute number, it is free of context and that context is important. Anyone who knows how to make statistics lie would agree that the best way to distort the meaning of figures is to offer them without context, or juxtaposed in the wrong context.
Now let's look at revenue, and assume that everyone who used the service paid the top daily rate during that first year of $30. 20,000 paying customers at $30 each is a grand total of $600,000 revenue. We know, however, that prices were reduced during this period, and many of these passengers likely opted for the lesser priced packages, so lets give a nice round number and say they had $500,000 in air-time revenue from end consumers. This for a technology that cost over $500,000 per plane to install. I'm starting to smell some really rotten fish. (140 aircraft had been outfitted at the time this backgrounder was written.). Or, instead of 1 person every 3 flights,ht. At this moment, we have the Even if there are some Fortune 500 companies that would be willing to allow that as an expense, I certainly wouldn't want to be justifying more than 1 per month of those to my boss or the corporate controller. I might be able to get away with it, but it's a nuisance factor I don't need.
Counting the Marketing Mistakes
At the cost to provide and sustain Connexion service, the necessary revenue to break even and be profitable required an assumption of very high usage on every flight. M "Extensive" market research by Boeing came up with a definitive statement that "38% of frequent travelers are willing to pay at least $25 per flight for full, high-speed". Clearly, Boeing believed that it they built it, the users would come, and had boxed themselves into a cost structure that embedded this assumption.
If I had an urgent deadline that absolutely couldn't wait until I landed, I might be willing to pay $25, so I'd probably answer yes just to influence the outcome (so that the service became available), however, the real question should have been "at this price level, how often would you use the service". And, whatever answer you got, you'd test it a dozen different ways for validity. At this ridiculous price level and with this billing model, I might use Connexion once or twice a year, but more likely never. Certainly on flights from the US to Europe, most of the time in the sky is overnight, so who is waiting for my urgent communications anyway?
Wm. M
So, they got the pricing wrong, but that's not the only factor that was apparently going to limit uptake. Why else might I not use the service?
- Other activities competing for my time. Movies, food, bathroom breaks, getting up to stretch, drinking, reading, listening to music, watching a DVD, talking to my travel partner, doing PC work that doesn't require a connection - there are numerous things to do that I don't have to pay anything extra for. As Urlocker says,"Don't trust what people say; trust what they do".
-
- Pot? ? Unlike all the press release hoopla, there was little product differentiation going on in the market, and even less promotion to make people aware when they were going to be on an internet-enabled flight. Even at the gate, there was often no posted notice that you were boarding a Connexion flight. Boeing depended on the marketing efforts of the airlines, and the airlines attitude seemed to be "if we have it, they'll figure it of direct communication with end-users. Connexion considered their customers to be the airlines, although they were clearly dependent on very large scale adoption by the real customers - the end-users. In an utterly amazing statement of 'not getting it' Boeing said "Each of the airlines brings an unprecedented level of knowledge about the in-flight connectivity needs of passengers." as it announced the pending partnerships with US carriers. Right. Just like they understand my need for sufficient room to sit, and my need to pay a fair price for services, and my need to be treated like a customer rather than a filled seat. Boeing, as a near monopoly provider to US carriers also didn't get that if you want a mass market to develop, you can't dictate the terms.
- Ask smarter research survey questions to uncover real needs and market drivers, not self-serving ones to fill press release content. The conclusions ind.
- Understand that the airlines weren't really their customers, just gatekeepers. Unfortunately, for aircraft sales, the airlines are their customers, which complicates this enormously. Boeing probably shouldn't have been in this business, or should have found a way to work around this fundamental conflict.
- Realize that there was a potential network effect to be gained by being first out of the blocks. Had Boeing promoted this directly to consumers with a message that they could now get affordable (assuming the price was affordable, which in their model, it wasn't) internet access in the sky, using a single account with a single sign on and promoting the carriers that offered it, and gained a large subscriber base quickly, the other airlines would have to get on board or be left out of the game.
- Accessibility. Every plane needed to be outfitted ASAP for this to take off. Amazingly, it was not until this year that the first new plane was built and delivered with Connexion installed. Boeing should have made the decision to include it as a standard piece of equipment, and charge more if the airline said no. This way, there is no retrofit cost barrier to laggard carriers deciding to offer the service -- they could even conduct trials without having to plan years ahead and make big commitments. Furthermore, the cost to retrofit existing planes should have been made much more attractive, even going so far as to bundle it with major maintenance service intervals at cost of materials, or cost of labor, whichever was lower.
- If you need to work through the carrier to reach the customer, do their marketing and business planning for them. A Connexion-in-a-box kit, because if they have to think, you've lost the game.
Indeed there is plenty to pin on the carriers too. They don't get marketing either, at least not in a user-oriented authentic context. For any of the US majors, this would have been a cinch to create brand loyalty, much like frequent flyer miles did when American was the only one doing it. Think of this: a premium flyer package, as an add-on to my Crown Room or Admiral's Club membership. How about a $15-20/month upgrade to my membership that not only gets me Club access, but gives me unlimited internet access on the plane, higher priority waitlisting for upgrades, a free drink on domestic flights and two freebies on international (if I'm stuck in cattle class), plus phone calls, movies, the whole shebang. It's hard to imagine anyone not buying this, with an associated increase in demand for Club memberships and an extremely sticky preference for a ticket on that carrier. Ironically, I would probably pay $30-40 more for a ticket on a carrier where I had those privileges, and that level of increased ticket price is well within most business traveler's discretion at time of purchase. |

. The researchers analyzed the diets of thoser and found no link between grapefruit intake and incidence of breast cancer. This was true regardless of their Body Mass Index, whether they smoked, or other variables.
What's especially interesting is that when they split those women with breast cancer between those women who were on hormone replacement therapy and those who were not, they found that eating more grapefruit (at least 1/4 grapefruit or more per day, on average) was related to a reduced risk of breast cancer in those women who had never been on hormone replacement therapy.

en | N/A | N/A | While there isn’t much that Shackleford said he would change from a sporting aspect, he said he is looking forward to the job come July.
“I am excited about what we got going on and that I can impact kids at this level,” he said.
There are some issues that Shackleford will have to see completed, including the opening of new tennis courts at the school, which should be open in time for girls tennis in the fall, as they are being relocated from their current location behind the football field, to behind the baseball field.
“We still have other facility challenges we need to address like more locker rooms, more storage,” he said. “We have a very good coaching staff already built. They are doing great things already. We need to just keep building that forward and build upon what they have done.”
One thing that Shackleford will face is the opening of a third high school in Fort Mill, with Catawba Ridge coming online for the 2019-’20 school year. How that will affect the Falcons’ sports programs is an unknown at this point. Typically, realignment of school attendance zones depletes the teams at legacy schools as students are routed to the new one.
“It will be a challenge for us because it is going to take some of our kids from us,” he said. “We don’t know where the lines are yet, but we will lose some of our population. That will be a challengthings rolling forward and not have any let off.”
Another aspect that helped land Shackleford the job was that the learning curve will be lessened due to the fact he is already a part of the school.

en | N/A | N/A | The Space Controller from Sound Particles. Image: Sound Particles.
Sound Particles has announced a new control system that interfaces with your DAW to allow surround sound panning simply by pointing your phone.
Sound Particles is marketing the new control system, called Space Controller, as one of the easiest ways to pan sounds in surround sound. In a press release, Nuno Fonseca, the founder and CEO of the company, said, "We felt that using knobs, joysticks or even the mouse were not the best way to position sounds in 3D, so we searched for alternatives. Using a mobile phone makes the process straightforward - you simply point the device to the place where you want the sound to be positioned - easy, fast, precise and intuitive."
Sound Particles isn't a new start-up or inexperienced in the field of professional sound editing. Its software is used by studios such as Warner Bros, and on films such as Guardians of the Galaxy, Wonder Woman, Star Trek Discovery, and a whole host more. In other words, the company's new control system is not just a gimmick.
Communication - Use Bluetooth to easily connect your app to your system, with minimum effort. In case you’re in professional studios with computers located in different rooms, use the WiFi connection.
There will be two different versions of the system available, Space Controller Standard, which will be for home studios, priced at $79.20, and the Studio version at $319.29. Both are available now from authorised resellers, working on both iOS and Android. Find out more on the Sound Particles website. |

en | N/A | N/A | Rice is the most consumed staple food in Nigeria. Nearly every family includes rice in their daily food quota. However, even with the high consumption rate of rice in Nigeria, which is estimated to be about 5.5 million tons, there is a high demand for rice that has not still been met within the country.
Rice is not a perishable food. As long as you do not let water get to it, it can take more than three years to get spoilt.
Rice has a ready market in any locality in Nigeria.
This article teaches you how to get started on a rice business and benefit from the huge potentials for wealth embedded in this venture.
It is best you have a reliable supplier such as a rice farm. Buying from a rice farm is best for you as a wholesale distributor. You will be able to get the rice in very large quantity and at the cheapest possible price. This will help you make more profits after the cost involved in getting the rice from the supplier to the retailers.
In many cases, you do not get to sell all of the rice you are supplied with at once to the retailers. Circumstances that might cause this include: low demand at some time of the year etc. Therefore, you will need a warehouse to store the rice until it is time to take it to the retailers.
Buying in bulk from rice farmers is what earns profit in the wholesale distributing business. To buy in very large quantity from the rice farmers, you will need to have much capital. However, based on agreement, some are able to buy on credits and pay rice farmers at a later time.
For transportation, you will need to purchase trucks so as to move the rice from the rice farm to the warehouse and from there to your retailer, when the orders are placed. If you do not want to get trucks of your own, you can also make an agreement with a logistics company to take care of the transportation process.
Once the above steps are in place, you are on your way to starting a rice distribution business.
In order to have a successful rice production business in Nigeria, the selection of the land you will use in planting the rice is of paramount importance. If you are looking at staying in the rice farming business for a long time, it is best you select a site in places where rice is grown traditionally. These includes: Kebbi, Borno, Kano and Kaduna states in the North; Enugu, Ebonyi state and Cross River states in the South; Taraba and Benue states for the middle belt zone.
Ensure you make a soil survey your land to avoid any risk. Choose lands that contain organic matter like loamy soil and that have high in water retention capacity.
You should prepare your land for rice farming between the months of November to February. There is less rain at this time and your land will be ready for farming at February when the raining season starts to approach. Preparing the land for rice production involves clearing and packing bushes, hoeing and weeding. Level the land to avoid erosion and apply fertilizer.
There are different varieties of rice in Nigeria. Choosing the right variety of rice results in more productive rice harvest.
You can plant directly on the farm or plant first in the nursery then transplant it to the farm. If you choose to plant directly, ensure you watch out for weeds and spray herbicides to control it.
Apply fertilizers appropriately, if you need help with this, visit an agro store for advice.
Weeding is important in rice farming. The sooner it is done the better. The first weeding should be done within 2 to 3 weeks after appearance. When weeding, use a hoe instead of a cutlass. You can also control weed using chemicals. The second weeding should be done about 6 to 7 weeks after appearance.
Pests include Birds, rodents, termites, and worms.
To control birds, employ people to watch over the farm in the first two weeks after planting, and from heading to harvesting You can kill rodents with snap traps. Control termites by destroying all dead woods and plant deposits by burning.
Harvesting of rice could start after 4 months when the rice has turned from green to brown (straw colour). The process of doing this called threshing and you can do this using mechanical devices or wacking frames.
Do not thresh on a bare floor. Thresh on a mat or tarpaulin over the concrete floor by beating rice against the floor, or against a stick or drum.
After harvesting rice, you should put in residues of rice back into the soil and also grow leguminous plants like beans, peas, lentils, soya, etc so as to help maintain soil nutrients for another planting season. |

Before you get all "no way" because you're not an artist and you can't'
No matter if it's your living room or office, wall hangings are such an amazing decor. They can add difference to the room's look and make the wall appear less pale or empty. For this project, you need feathers, gold spray paint, suede lace, scissors and wood dowel. The result is more of a monochromatic decor rather than a colorful one, so you can completely take it to the office without worrying that it might be too much.
Garlands look so nice and fun and they'! 'll see how awesome it looks!
Once the dreamcatchers were used for the obvious reason, but today many people use them as a room decor and we can completely see why – they are unique and look really nice. There are plenty of ways you can make your own dreamcatcher and it's really easy. First get the materials you need – a lace doily (the focal point for your dream catcher), a wooden embroidery hoop, yarn, a hot glue gun, wooden or plastic beads, ribbon (you can use satin and lace ribbon to hang from the hoop) and feathers.
Hair accessories can get expensive, so it's't find at the stores or if it'sBaby on the way? Here's an idea that you can use for decorating the nursery room. This would especially fit if you're planning on some woodland theme. One of the most popular nursery items is the mobile and there's plenty of ways you can do that. One of those is using feathers as the main decor. For this mobile, you'll need 2 different sized embroidery hoops, feathers, gold paint, twine, 3 different colored felt squares, scissors, hot glue, gold paint, paint brush and marker.'t cost a lot – to make your own, you'll'u't's. |

Sierra Leone must learn by experience and provide state or governmental assistance when critically needed. Siaka Stevens, the venerable former president of Sierra Leone once said, and I quote, "vigilance is the price we must pay for national survival."
Well, well, well, here's someone talking about respecting other people's opinions, while at the same time frowning and kicking up dust over genuine criticisms (lmao.) Let me reiterate – They said the article makes no sense and was a waste of time – live with that!
Messrs. M. Bah and Zito Kamara's negative comments about such an important subject matter in today's environment were totally devoid of any substantive analysis. No tangible explanations were given for the condemnation of the article in question: "The Floods are coming". This is what Mr. Zito Kamara wrote: "This article makes no sense". What?
And to paraphrase Mr Bah's response: "Sierra Leone does not have a space program, even though Fourah Bay College has been offering sience, (correct spelling: "science") and a prelude to areospace, (correct spelling: "aerospace") for over 50yrs". In similar vein, no substance followed the comments. Rather the article was simply dismissed as having no relevance in the face of climate change that is inundating all corners of the world, Sierra Leone included. Have you "two i" forgotten already?
What a waste of time. The entire "article" could have been summed up by 3 paragraphs – the 1st and the last two. What's all the other useless off-tangent fluffs in between? |

en | N/A | N/A | Do You Hear Me Now? An Active Listening Exercise for Teachers
When you want your students to explore a specific topic or question, here’s a small group strategy to use that encourages active listening (along with offering all the advantages of collaborative learning).
Second, listen with curiosity: engage your desire to learn and understand, rather than to try to fix anything or simply offer your own point of view.
Fifth, listen intentionally: you’ll learn.
If someone asks a question, someone else must answer it before another comment can be made.
Step Three: Each group should identify or appoint a group leader who will make sure the rules are followed and time is observed.
Step Six: Repeat Steps Four and Five until everyone has spoken at least twice, or for a specific amount of time. |
