en | N/A | N/A | The first season of The Next Generation is…
Following the pitiful premiere, "The Naked Now" likely shaved off chunks of skeptical viewers, failing in every way to prove that TNG had potential. In short, the episode features Wesley at his worst, weird space viruses, and Data performing…

The Borg's introduction into the Star Trek mythos was nothing short of frightening. Nothing like them had been seen in the franchise before, and nothing since has really measured up to them (aside from the Dominion.) Long before the days of a Borg joining the crew of the Voyager, The Next Generation painted a grim picture of these heartless, unstoppable machines…
Despite dealing with such utterly stirring and emotionally impactful concepts like a lack of sleep, the ability to dream, and hostile hallucinations, most people will remember this episode for one thing, and one thing only: Troi, glowing green, floating around and screaming out "where are you?
One of the reasons why "Best of Both Worlds" made such a powerful impact was due to the surprising sight of Captain Picard succumbing to the malevolent Borg and becoming a merciless villain. Seeing this man, who had been the voice of reason, empathy, and sound judgment throughout the entire series become such a twisted and broken force of evil was soul-shattering…
We'll be upfront with you: some of the episodes on this list, specifically "The Inner Light", might actually be superior to "All Good Things…
It's no small feat to be a piece of fantastic science-fiction television, but to be able to achieve that while also bearing the burden of concluding an increasingly legendary series with a beloved cast that made waves throughout an enormous fandom is even more profound. "All Good Things…

en | N/A | N/A | Morocco is maintaining contacts with the military component of the MINURSO and remains committed to cooperation with this component in the framework of the mandate entrusted to him, said Foreign Minister Salaheddine Mezouar Thursday, explaining that Rabat’s recent decisions to remove the UN staff from the Moroccan Sahara are legitimate and proportionate to the UN Head’s recent blunder which harmed the kingdom.
“Contacts between the Moroccan Royal Armed Forces and the UN military staff of MINURSO are still ongoing in order to maintain the cease-fire in normal conditions,” Mezouar said at a news conference in Rabat.
“Morocco has on many occasions expressed its willingness to provide backing and the necessary logistical support to enable the MINURSO military staff fulfil its mandate in good conditions,” he said, after a meeting with leaders of Political parties and trade unions.
The Foreign Minister also pointed out that contacts between Rabat and Mrs Kim Bolducthe MINURSO, are going on normally and that Morocco remains open to a constructive and responsible dialogue with no pre-conditions in a spirit of mutual respect. “Such a dialogue should not ignore the reasons behind the current situation, on the one hand, and seek to rebuild trust and to save the political process that has been undermined by Ban Ki-Moon’s blunders, on the other,” Mezouar said.
The UN has earlier this week closed its military office in the Moroccan city of Dakhla at Rabat’s request. It also repatriated around 80 members of its civilian staff stationed in the disputed the territory.
Mezouar reiterated Morocco’s standpoint on its territorial integrity, saying the Kingdom “boldly” endorses the recent decisions it made in response to Ban Ki-Moon’s biased remarks. These decisions “are final and irrevocable” and are based on a national consensus and unconditional support of all components of the Moroccan people, he said.
Also on Thursday the Moroccan government underscored, following the weekly cabinet meeting, that the measures taken are proportionate to the grave mistakes made by the UN Head during his last trip in the region which took him to Mauritania and Algeria.
”The Moroccan government re-affirms its utter rejection of anything that can harm the country’s territorial integrity or any move seeking to provoke the Moroccan people,” said Mustafa El Khalfi, the government spokesman after the cabinet meeting.

en | N/A | N/A | When I first walked in to, it felt like I had just stepped onto a movie set.
It was 2006. Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) was just on the cusp ofUltimate Fighter was already a popular television show, attracting millions of viewers each week. The UFC was asserting its dominance as the premiere contact sport promotion. And referee Big John McCarthy was (in many ways) one of the key faces of MMA and the UFC.
“Let’s get it on!” McCarthy’s trademark call for the battle inside the cage to begin was proudly posted everywhere in the gym. The full-sized boxing ring, the regulation-sized Octagon cage, the sprawling BJJ floor mat, the field of hanging heavy-bags, and the extensive workout equipment signaled to me that this place was as much spectacle as training facility. Not pageantry. Spectacle. There was no fluff. There were no cameras. But everything was so exquisite. It was all so available.
“You can use all of the facilities: the ring, the cage, the equipment, the dressing rooms,” said our tour guide.
“Wait, we can use the cage whenever we want?” I replied.
Suddenly it hit me. This was more than a martial arts studio. This was a camp. Big John McCarthy opened this training facility to create an army of mixed martial artists. He spared no expense to bring in the finest equipment; he ensured that each person entering his doors, regardless of their level of martial arts experience, would find whatever they needed to succeed in their goals; and he guaranteed that this camp would produce top-level martial artists who were prepared for competition. There would be no excuses for failure here. As is fitting in the middle-class neighborhood where the gym was established,cel.
Having trained in MMA off-and-on for the previous 5 years, I was pretty confident walking into the gym that I’d be capable of competing with whomever I was placed. I learned to be humble rather quickly. My first class was an intermediate jiu-jitsu class in the gi. The instructors were Lou Salseda and Big John McCarthy himself (a BJJ black belt in his own right). The lesson today covered a variety of collar chokes from the mount position. My partner was a recently promoted purple belt who weighed 50lbs more than me and was 6 inches taller (which is saying quite a bit since I’m 6′ tall and in good athletic shape!). He was agile, aggressive, strong and quick to adapt. He never forced anything by sheer strength. He relied on technique and swift hip movement. He was simply a very good practitioner of the sport.
During our time of implementing the techniques, Lou Salseda and Big John McCarthy paced around, overseeing their students’ progress. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Lou standing over a pair of students. I wondered what he was teaching them; wondered if I might get noticed. As the new guy, I wanted to make a quick impression; to show them that I was no slouch; that I was ready to be included in the camp. And right on cue, from my blindside, was Big John McCarthy.
“Show me what you got,” he bellowed.
Momentarily I froze. With his 6’4″ 270lb frame towering over my partner and me, I realized for the first time the legitimacy of his moniker.
Without a word, I proceeded to demonstrate a methodical cross collar choke. My partner tapped. I looked up accomplished.
He motioned my partner up and took his place.
“Let’s go,” he called with an accompanying wave of his hands.
When the boss calls, you listen, right? Right. So I proceeded to the mount position… sort of. My shins could barely rest on the ground. This man’s torso was enormous! But I eventually settled in, got into position, and locked in the choke… he didn’t tap. I applied more pressure. Nothing. One final burst of pressure and torque. Nope.
And with that, he got up and moved on to the next pair of students. After he left, my partner and I exchanged turns implementing what we had just been shown so that it was ingrained. It was only a minor adjustment; one that we had already ‘known’ prior to being corrected. But sometimes it’s easy to succumb to lazy habits in the application of martial arts. Sure, the technique was effective prior to the adjustment. Most would have tapped under such pressure. But it wasn’t technically sound. As such, it was flawed. Flawed not only in its efficacy, but also flawed in it’s spirit.
The martial arts are a series of disciplines that teach one combat maneuvers, yes. But more than that, the martial arts teach discipline and awareness. After my first class at BJMUTA, I knew that I would not be allowed to cut any corners. The instructors and coaches on board would ensure that if I were to progress at all, it would be at the highest level of discipline and awareness. For although Big John McCarthy’s Ultimate Training Academy was a spectacle to behold, there was a responsibility that came with all the provisions: an unwavering commitment to the mission set forth for this camp. |

en | N/A | N/A | They are the second largest land animal on earth and one of the last remaining mega-herbivores on our planet. Our five remaining species of rhino are environmental engineers whose contribution to the eco-system is unprecedented and irreplaceable. Rhinos don’t just change their environment; they shape and diversify it paving the way for the existence of countless other species of flora and fauna. These majestic creatures have traversed savannahs and bushveld, wallowed in the swamps of tropical forests, survived searing heat and freezing ice ages for more than 40 million years, yet today, they are precariously close to extinction.
Habitat loss has been , especially in Asia, where human populations are rising rapidly and natural habitats are being degraded and destroyed as humans and wildlife compete for resources. Delicate and irreplaceable ecosystems are cleared to make way for palm plantations, logging, human settlement and agricultural expansion leaving less space and food for wildlife. Human encroachment disjoints habitats, leaving them fragmented and often too small to support all the wildlife. Such environmental stress can cause catastrophic and irreversible damage.
Many of Asia’s wild rhinos now live in small, isolated pockets thousands of acres smaller than their once large ranges. Smaller, isolated populations bring additional risks to wildlife such as inbreeding which jeopardises species survival by reducing genetic diversity and increasing risk of disease.
Similarly Africa’s rhinos also face reduced range due to human encroachment. Community and political boundaries disrupt natural migration routes leaving both humans and wildlife competing for the same natural resources (known as human-wildlife conflict).
The instability of natural weather patterns can also have long lasting effects on habitats and wildlife, changing plant growth patterns which cause disruption to food cycles. The forests and peatland in Sumatra are at increasing risk of fire during the dry season, which is getting longer, while disruption to the annual monsoons in Nepal and Assam, home to the Greater One Horned rhino could leave a shortfall in food or even cause wetlands to flood. Similarly, extended droughts in Africa leave the grasslands parched extending periods scarce of food and water. These extended droughts can also slow down the re-population of plant life and fertilisation of soils, which rhinos are particularly vital for through defecation. In fact rhinos are a keystone species, a mega-herbivore with a pivotal role within the ecosystem. The entire removal of important species such as rhinos could spell catastrophe for African savannahs. Rhino grazing maintains grasslands (rather than decimate them as once thought) sustaining countless other species and increasing bio-diversity.
In recent years, wildlife crimes have escalated from a conservation problem to a humanitarian issue and global threat to national security. Opportunistic hunters have been superseded by sophisticated and organised criminal networks and isolated pockets of poaching replaced by wide scale plundering of wildlife causing irreversible degradation of eco-systems. These criminal activities exploit poverty, risk an economic collapse of tourism and pose increasing risk to human life.
The illegal trade of wildlife is now the fourth largest trans-national crime after drugs, arms and human-trafficking. It’s a lucrative industry with an estimated worth between six and twelve billion pounds annually, providing substantial income for the organised crime networks operating on a local, national and global scale. The trafficking of wildlife is intimately linked to terrorist organisations, utilising the profits of their criminal activity to increase manpower and weaponry and execute devastating operations across the globe.
One continent, providing the majority fuel source of this illicit trade is Africa. The raping of African wildlife through commercial exploitation, however, is not a new phenomenon. For centuries, Africa’s wildlife has been targeted by hunters and poachers alike and numerous species are now facing the repercussions of excessive human consumption.
The market, powered by fictitious claims, misplaced beliefs and folklore regarding the use of rhino horns, has driven the murder of thousands of rhino across Africa. At the epicentre of the current poaching crisis, which first began to escalate in 2008 is South Africa. The country is custodian to the world’s largest wild rhino population, but it’s under attack. Spanning the countries flagship game reserve, the Kruger is the ground zero of the poaching crisis. Since 2008, the Kruger has lost between 45 and 65% of South Africa’s annual reported mortalities.
Beyond the horns, however other body parts including tails, ears, feet, genitals, organs and blood are all falsely believed to have medicinal value. Even the urine, particularly from the Greater one-horned rhino is considered an antiseptic.
Are all rhino species under threat from poaching?
How do poachers remove horns?
Are rhinos killed to remove their horns?
What injuries do poaching survivors sustain?
How do the rhinos die?
Are complete horns more desirable to consumers?
In some Asian cultures, a full, complete horn (which includes the root of the horn, located under the skin surface but above the skull) is more desirable. This area under the skin surface also holds a high resale value (weight depending) can sell on the black market for approximately £20-£30,000. This is why de-horning alone is not a sufficient poaching deterrent.
Who uses rhino horn?
The value of rhino horn per kilogram has sharply risen from approximately £1,900 in 1980 to an estimated £35-£50,000 today. One full rhino horn can cost approximately £120,000 upwards. Much of the cost of rhino horn can be attributed to the misplaced belief of purported medicinal properties, perceived material value and increasing investment incentive.
Who profits from wildlife crimes and the slaughter of rhinos?
Where do the profits from rhino horns and other wildlife crimes go?
Wildlife crime is considered worth an estimated £6-£12 billion per year and increasing at an alarming rate. Criminal syndicates and militant gangs use the funds sourced from wildlife crime to fund other illegal activities, increase weapons and manpower, the repercussion of which effects each and every one of us. These actions cause massive loss of life, threaten national security, erode state authority and cause political conflict all of which destabilises economies.
How many rhinos are poached in Africa each year?
Not all countries release poaching statistics and there has been much speculation figures released are grossly inaccurate. We have no definitive continent wide poaching figures however, figures from TRAFFIC and CITES report over 1000 rhinos poached across Africa (excluding South Africa) between 2006 and 2012).
Are all poached rhinos included in the official statistics?
The poaching stats for South Africa only include dead, de-horned rhinos. Rhinos found dead, but with intact horns, unborn calves, poaching survivors, orphans and rhinos who survive attacks but later die are omitted. We also have it on good authority, not all cases are reported to the DEA. With this in mind, it’s estimated the true number of casualties on a yearly basis would be around 20-25% higher.
Does destroying horn stockpiles increase poaching?
Many supporters of trading rhino horns claim the destruction of such specimens leads to an increase in demand, however, there is no evidence these government sanctioned destructions impact supply. Many specimens destroyed are sourced from natural mortalities and in some cases have already been stored for decades. Most of the horns were not removed from the market or taken from circulation so there is no need to increase poaching to make up for any “short fall”. |

Corabi was a member of the band from 1992 to 1996
Former Mötley Crüe singer John Corabi has said he was “surprised” to be given a mention in the band’s biopic, The Dirt.
The film arrived on Netflix in March and was based on the biography of the bandn interview with LA Weekly, Corabi responded to being name-checked in the film. “Perötley is Vince, Nikki [Sixx, bass], Tommy [Lee, drums] and Mick [Mars]”
He continued, joking: “.”
In a one-star review, NME said of The Dirt: “It could all be seen as silly, bawdy fun. And I defy anyone to not find parts of the film entertaining, being as it is a big, stupid romp about the stupidest band of an era. But what’s galling about it is that we’re meant to feel sorry for them, or see them as redemptive characters. Each band member, we are frequently reminded, has their cross to bear.” |

en | N/A | N/A | Fibromyalgia Awareness | Information, Tips, Support, Patient Stories: Understanding people with Fibromyalgia - Part 1: Fibro Fog
Life with Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) can be frustrating given the umpteen symptoms and side effects of strong medicines. But what hurts fibromyalgia patients more than anything else is the indifference they face from family, friends and colleagues. And I am not saying this based solely on my experience, for which I have so many examples that I can compile a book if I can remember them all! This is the voice of over 2000 people on the Facebook page of this blog.
People not understanding FMS is one thing, but many tend to take advantage of the symptoms we face. We are used to the indifference by now, but taking advantage of our situation... this is definitely unacceptable.
Earlier, I used to urge people on my page to let their near and dear ones know that they tend to forget some of the smallest and biggest things. This would help us save a lot of embarrassment as well as we could be reminded of important things if we forgot. Like why did we come to the supermarket. Like who is this person saying that he knows us for over 10 years. Like there is a meeting at 4 pm today. Like it's the last day of paying some bills. Like it's the small tablets we need to take and not the capsules which are kept for someone else in the family. Like there is milk boiling on the stove...
I remember once a member of our page said she went on a very long drive to reach some place and after a few hours she went blank. She could not remember why she was driving all the while. Worst still, she had forgotten the note to self (about why and where she was heading that would have come handy in this situation) back home! And then, she got confused with the route to her home. Thankfully, she had her mobile to her rescue.
The thing with our memory is that we can completely forget something and may or may not remember it later. But the another thing is that what we remember, we remember. So when I say I clearly remember that I told you about me going out of town this weekend, I definitely told you. Don't make fun of my fibro fog by saying that I might have forgotten telling you. Or that I 'think' I told you, when I know I most certainly did.
When I tell you that I didn't know that your spare house keys were in my purse all this while and I remembered you giving them to me only after I found them, it might be the case. Don't accuse us. Don't abuse our illness. It is possible that sometimes you also forget some things... like handing me the spare keys before you had to leave home in a jiffy. You were not born with super memory, were you?
So accept this truth - we have fibro fog, we get confused and there are things we remember clearly.
And now a note to my dear fibromyalgia friends dealing with fibro fog - Know who you should trust and count on. Keep them informed about things you think you might forget. But be careful who you let you know about your fibro fog. Especially when it comes to your workplace and relatives. Your closest friends, I guess, understand you the best and are in your life for a very good reason.
Please share this article, the first in this series, to help the world understand people with fibromyalgia.

I am so pleased to have found this place where I can read about others who suffer from FMS. It helps to know how the condition affects others and highlights the fact that what I sometimes feel in my body is in fact caused by the condition and not just the meds I am on, although at times it's hard to tell the difference. I have osteoarthritis along with FMS and most days I have pain in various parts of me. I am at the moment trying to do more exercise as due to steroid treatment I am carrying far too much weight. My GP is very supportive but often others don't understand the condition so on occasions, I feel I cannot share how I really feel as it begins to come across as one big pity party. So thanx to all who share so openly about coping day to day with FMS, I pray that the condition itself becomes more recognised and understood more clearly.
How do you react when someone compliments you on being strong? Sometimes I just smile. And often, deep inside me something hurts when I he...

Very rarely has anyone in this situation successfully recounted their action items 100% correctly.

en | N/A | N/A | We can all point the finger of blame at our parents. As we get older however it becomes apparent that they, like ourselves, are simply humans trying to do their best in a world where we are all prone to mistakes of judgement and the perils of control. Eventually we forgive our parents their faults and when we go on to have children of our own it often puts their own foibles in perspective.
However, it is glaringly obvious that the way parents treat their children effects them, often long into their adult lives. A new report featured in this news article draws attention to the fact that children who live with caring parents go on to live happier and more stable lives. Although we have moved away from the clichéd picture of the patient reclining on a chaise longue whilst the psychiatrist quizzes them about their mother, there is a degree to which nurture influences nature.
The trick to bringing up children in my opinion is to adopt good enough parenting. This concept was created by DW Winnicott, who wanted to develop a system where children could deal with the realities of life and the harsh lessons where everything unfortunately isn’t fair, without destroying their aptitude and hunger for life. This is often a difficult path to walk as we all desire to prevent our children from suffering pain or hurt.
Of course, when children do not have the correct boundaries set for their behaviour, this gives them false expectations of life. When their anger and petulance is not met with consequence and when their needs are not tempered, this can often result in an overblown sense of self-importance. The danger is that this early burst of confidence can seem attractive to a parent, with their child growing up and taking on challenges, but ultimately this comes with the price of not being able to deal with failure or allowing others to take the centre of the stage.
Conversely if we are always filling out children’s’ heads full of fear and doubt, they may be easier to control and will come back to you when scared or frightened, but you should ask yourself how long you want this behaviour to continue. It may well be the case that this type of control sets up a pattern that may last until your child is a young adult with no confidence in finding their own way in the world.
How can you find a balance between these two extremes?

WHY DOES PATIENT RECLINE ON A COUCH? It was the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud himself, who initiated the use of the couch in the treatment of his patients. Today every psychoanalyst’s consulting room is furnished with a couch. The reclining patient cannot see the analyst, who sits behind him. Also the analyst cannot see the patient’s face during the session. By not allowing eye contact between the two, the patient finds it easier to articulate his thoughts, even those most difficult and secret, while the analyst is free to listen to the patient talking and interpret what he says. The reclined position also helps the patient relax, and by eliminating external stimuli and the temptation to watch the analyst’s face, he is more able to focus on his thoughts and feelings. However, in certain cases the analyst may choose not to place the patient on the couch, for example if this position may strengthen patient’s anxiety. Psychoanalysis is not determined by the use of a couch, but rather by the way of thinking about the development and dynamics of the patient’s inner life, understanding and interpreting unconscious ideas, including transference of the patient’s feelings towards significant people in his life onto the analyst, as well as frequency of sessions. WHY ARE PSYCHOANALYSIS SESSIONS HELD SO FREQUENTLY? Psychoanalyst usually sees his patients four or five times a week. He is available to the patient at fixed appointments. Sessions are usually 50 minutes long, although certain analysts prefer 45 minutes. The high frequency and regularity of the meetings create a framework for the development of the psychoanalytical process. Even when the patient consciously wishes to implement changes in order to improve his quality of life, there is an |

en | N/A | N/A | Cooler Master, an award-winning computer hardware manufacturer, today launches the MasterBox K500L. As the latest case in the MasterBox K-Series lineup, the MasterBox K500L includes illuminated accents, fine mesh, and red lighting to emphasize “gaming” without breaking the wallet.
With a mesh front panel, 400mm of graphics card space, support for six 120mm fans, and front and rear water cooling support, there is plenty of room to house performance gaming components. Two lighted accents on each side of the mesh extend the glow of the pre-installed red LED fans and power button.
Efficient Thermal Performance: A partial meshed front panel and ventilation holes on top of the case give your parts fresh air to breathe.
Lighting Effects: Stand out and be unique through LED strip in front. Your case will never be unremarkable.
Versatile Cooling Options: Support for up to six 120mm fans and front and rear liquid cooling ensure you don’t have to compromise on performance.
Graphics Card Support Up To 400mm: Supports the latest, widest cards you can get.
Stay Black, Stay Neat: Let your system stand out with a full black coating and PSU cover.
Cable Management: The PSU cover and 19mm width space behind the mainboard tray gives you plenty of cable management options to keep your build nice and clean.
The MasterBox K500L is the first release in a lineup that features 3D mesh, shaped to match the design on the front panel, with traits that change lighting depending on the angle. To accomplish this, a finer, single layer mesh was developed. Previously, dust filters came in two layers: one layer for aesthetics and a layer of finer mesh as a dust filter.
The MasterBox K500L integrates both of those layers into one, resulting in a finer mesh construction. Thermal performance is accomplished mainly through the front panel but complemented by filtered ventilation below the I/O, and ventilation on the top panel.
The MasterBox K500L is the latest case in the K-Series lineup, with the MasterBox K500 underway. At a slightly higher price point and later date, the K500 will be released with a few extras on top of the K500L’s features. The MasterBox K500 will include a controller for RGB support, RGB illuminated accents, pre-installed RGB fans and power button, and
will also have a tempered glass side panel.
The MasterBox K500L will be available in the UK in around 3 weeks (Mid-end April)
The MasterBox K500L will be £54.99 MSRP Inc. VAT

en | N/A | N/A | I was running late the other morning and my wife was ahead of schedule. I decided to get dressed for work before leaving and ran out in a black pencil skirt and a purple sweater. We have a straight carport and she was parked behind my car.
Let me point out for those that might not know. My wife and I came to an agreement that I could do my gender expression at work instead of at home. That way I have the freedom to be myself and be more productive. This agreement was also designed that my wife would not have to see me fully en femme. I change into guy clothes before I come home.
Other than some light dressing and some initial playful crossdressing early in my coming out she has had a hard time seeing me fully as a woman. We have been working a little towards that goal and I do back off when she gets uncomfortable.
Unfortunately that morning even without makeup and my breast forms I looked totally female. That was not what my wife was expecting to see first thing in the morning. She backed out of the carport and I drove away quickly. We did share a light wave as I passed.
Well I guess the experience was too intense for her. She spends four hours every morning by herself until she has to pick up our daughter. That’s a long time to sit alone with your thoughts. She had an emotional breakdown. My wife went into our closet and tore all my clothes off the hanger rails. She was not very delicate as she broke a number of the plastic hangers. Everything was thrown in to corner of the closet in a pile.
When I got home she was rather quiet. This was not an unexpected given the events of the morning. I actually did nofor work.
When I went into the closet I broke down in fits of tears. I picked a blouse out of the pile and quickly ironed it. I spent most of the day in a black funk. I decided in a fit of anger to fill my estrogen prescription. I was so mad I thought I could get back at her with the thing she dreads most. She has seen the effects I have gotten on Spiro. We have also talked about what would happen to me when I threw in estrogen. Neither of us are prepared for those changes. I agreed to hold off as long as possible because it would be nearly impossible to hide the effects from the kids.
As the day wore on I began to regret my choice. Then I got the confirmation from my doctor that the prescription was sent to the pharmacy. I told a few friends and they were ecstatic that I finally decided to start full HRT. I hadn’t told them why I made the decision. I read through the confirmation note from my endocrinologist and at the end he asked if I told my family. My anger and need for revenge was replaced with guilt and remorse. It’s been 2 days and I have not picked up my prescription.
I got the boys ready for bed and took care of the the dishes and trash. I also surveyed the damage in the closet. Luckily nothing was damaged. I hung a few pieces up and folded the rest. When my wife got home I think we had worked ourselves up so much that we couldn’t find the words. We both went to bed and you could hear our stomachs churning.
Of!!’s, I fully understand you… have been there my self. This moments are so horrible, yet we all have them one or the other way.
If one year of spiro did not stop all this, then I don’t know what would. The thing I learned to accept, we are hardwired this way and that is not going to change, no matter how hard we try. There is a slim chance that certain meds can suppress certain feelings well enough for us to stay away from transition, but if one year of spiro left you with the same desire to express yourself as a women then I am at the end of wisdom.
I so hope it will work for you and your wife will find a way to accept and support you.
I would strongly advise you to include in your next discussion with your wife a path toward completing your transition at home. Her reaction clearly indicates that she is in some level of denial about all of this.
I can honestly say that doing things halfway “for the sake of the kids” is a trap. The stress and pressure that builds up can explode in ways you don’t intend. (see your events of yesterday) There is more chance that your long-term relationship with your kids will be preserved if you are open, honest and nurturing. There is a wonderful organisation called Colage – for children of transgender people. They have numerous resources that can help you to introduce the kids to your transition. There is also a wonderful film called “No Dumb Questions” that follows the story of 3 girls aged 6, 9, and 11 as they follow their favorite Uncle Bill becomes Aunt Barbara.
As far as staying married goes. I wish you luck, but don’t sacrifice your own sanity for this goal. It will end up being an empty marriage and will eventually break down anyway. You and your wife will probably benefit from couple’s counselling where a knowledgeable third party helps you to honestly process your feelings and expectations toward each other.
I just looked at the title of your posting again and realized something.
You called it setback.
I think you can not call the incidents a setback, or look at them like it. |
en | N/A | N/A | Are singles with no kids isolated and vulnerable in later life?
All of the participants were at least 65 years old. The key question that motivated the authors was whether these older people, who had been single all their lives and had no children, would have the kinds of restrictive social support networks that would leave them vulnerable in their later lives. For each country, the authors compared 12 groups: men without children, women without children, mothers and fathers - and within those groups, people who had always been single or were currently married or were previously married.
2. Private restricted: this very limited support network is typical of married couples who mostly look only to each other for support, only rarely connecting with locals for help.
Second, there was a big exception to the first conclusion. Women who had always been single and who had no children often had the kinds of support networks in which friends were important - either locally integrated networks (in which local kin and neighbors, as well as friends, were part of the everyday support system) or wider community focused networks (among those who had no relatives nearby).
't really know for sure.
That's a kind of vulnerability, too. |
en | N/A | N/A | Second, Sampson criticized how the authors explained results that went contrary to their expectations. The researchers recorded sequences of brain activity. The brain patterns recorded from eight of the 12 volunteers during acupuncture was similar to the patterns observed when the visual cortex was stimulated, but four of the volunteers had patterns that went in the opposite direction. The authors explained these by saying, “The difference between [the two patterns] appears to be caused by the two types of reactions dependent on individual physical characteristics described in oriental medicine. These two types are known in oriental medicine as ‘yin’ and ‘yang’ characters...the acupuncture response of the yin character exhibits the same direction in signal intensity variation as the visual stimulation...Whereas the yang character shows an opposite behavior.”
“I don’t point this out because I’m some kind of xenophobe, because most physicians in China and Korea are also scientific physicians and they don’t believe in these things either,” said Sampson. “But this stuff is random. What you also need to know about functional MRIs is that if you think about light, your occipital cortex lights up. Tell me that those students did not know why they were getting acupuncture!” |
en | N/A | N/A | She is known and loved!
I spent a large portion of my life feeling incredibly insecure.
Many childhood memories are of family battles with my older sibling, who battles drug addiction. We were constantly doing damage control, struggling through another relapse and often, admittedly, enabling the cycle to continue.
I wanted so badly for someone to say they were proud of me.
I was afraid I could never do or be enough, and went to extreme lengths to please others.
One way I sought security is through relationships, especially those with men. I thought that if someone truly saw me and loved me for who I was, I would be content.
When I met my husband, I knew I’dconfident and driven, and within a year of getting married we moved cross-country so he could pursue a once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity.
For a person who’d lived in the same town her entire life, this was a huge step.
Within months of arriving in our new location, I discovered I was pregnant. I was terrified. Here we were, two thousand miles away from any friends or family, and I didn’t have the first clue how to take care of a baby.
The day after giving birth via emergency c-section, my Dad came into the room with news that my grandmother had died. In the midst of grief, shock, and trying to embrace my role as a new wife and mom, I sank into a long battle with depression.
At times, I wasn’t sure if the struggle would ever end.
Guilt followed me everywhere and I wondered why I felt so dark inside when new life was constantly before me.
As I look back on this period of my life, I see God’s fingerprints everywhere.
I see them through a friend who reached out.
I see them through a book recommendation that changed my perspective.
After a year as a stay-at-home mom, I reluctantly joined a MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group. As I was sitting at a meeting one morning, they played a video reading of Psalm 139 with clips of women pushing their babies on swings, feeding, and playing with their children.
Something inside of me broke. For the first time, I had a tiny inkling of just how much God loved me.
He had searched the depths of me. He’d seen the ugly and bruised parts, but He loved me just the same.
I couldn’t fathom it but the knowledge of a love so deep changed me. I finally realized I was known and loved by the Creator of the Universe, and that was more than enough.
As I embraced the community around me and accepted his divine grace, my confidence grew. I saw that I was securely held by the only One who truly sees me.
I recognized it was his approval and love I’d been searching for. . . and I had it all along.

Oh Abby, this is beautiful. You are such a strong and wonderful woman of God. Thank you for opening your heart today.
I’m so grateful we crossed paths on this journey. Thank you, friend.
Abby, yes you ARE known and loved!!!! Made my morning to see your sweet smile here. Have an awesome day you two!
Thank you for sharing your past struggles and the victory you have through Him, Abby. Oh, how our experiences growing up can shape how we view ourselves. So thankful that God pursues us with an everlasting love! Beautiful story, girlfriend!
Amen, Kristine. He does pursue us and I am eternally grateful. Thank you so much for your sweet encouragement, friend!
What a beautiful story, Abby. I’m so glad to see you here at Suzie’s. Your story is powerful because we can all relate. Thanksur words to set others free.
That is my prayer, Betsy. In Him we are free, indeed. Thanks for your continual encouragement, dear friend.
Yours is a strong story, Abby, that certainly brings God glory. I love getting to know you more and more, and I thank God that you found acceptance. It’s a powerful thing.You’re a beautiful, strong woman of God. What a joy to read your post on sweet Suzie Eller’s blog (Hi Suzie!) first thing this morning!
I feel the same way, Kristi. It’s been a joy to getting to know you on this journey. I thank God for this beautiful community.
Abby, what a beautiful surprise to find you at Suzie’s on this Monday morning! Your words inspire me. I can definitely relate to the desire to find someone who will love me for who I am. For years I have wrestled with my singleness and with the ache that comes with being the one who is never pursued. Even though I grew up knowing about God, it wasn’t until recently that I came to truly believe how He feels about me–and to know, deep down in my heart, that I AM wanted and pursued by my Creator! Thanks for sharing today, friend–what a joy it is to celebrate God’s faithfulness together!
Katie, I am so glad to hear you came to that realization and I know he has beautiful plans for your future. Praying his blessings over your life, friend.
Thank you so much for being bold, brave, and vuight have hope. I struggled with some of the same insecurities you dealt with and can relate to so desperately wanting to be seen, known, and loved. What joy when we discover the first true love of our life – Jesus! I love you just for being you…and so glad you know that God does too! Sharing in your victories!
Amen, Bev! There is so much joy when we discover how much he truly loves us. I want to give that hope to women. Thanks for walking alongside me on this journey.
It was so wonderful to see you here this morning! Such a beautiful post that I wish every woman could grasp and truly feel deep into the core of her soul! Thank you for sharing your story!!!
Me too, Lori. I want women to know his love. That is my prayer. Thanks so much for your kind words here.

It’s amazing what his power in us can do, isn’t it? He can even use our weaknesses to bring Him glory. Thank you, Jesus. And thanks for your encouragement, Julie!
I praise God for how he has delivered you Abby. What a beautiful testimony of God’s love. I am offering him praise for the beautiful daughter he has in you. Love seeing you here.
I am praising Him along with you, Kelly. I thank Him also for bringing God loving women like you into my life to walk alongside me. He is so good.
Thank you Abby for sharing your heart. I’m one of those also who know pain and rejection. We’re a cracked vessel aren’t we? But the love of God shines through to others.
Amen, Debbie. We are all cracked vessels but that allows his Light to shine through, doesn’t it? So grateful for that. Thanks for sharing your thoughts here today.
Abby, I’m praising God for you and for how you willingly share your story of His love and redemption in your life! You are encouraging others, including me. So proud to call you friend. You are most certainly loved!!
I feel the same way, Julie. Blessings to you, friend.
I’m so glad I read this today. Your words give me strength in the middle of my process. You are blessed Abby… and you are letting others (like me) know they are loved too by a good God. Thanks for encouraging me. |

Accordingly, we invest resources in ewith customers and, more generally, in e-commerce and technological advancements. In order to integrate electronically with mortgage lenders, we need to continue to connect our system to the industry's leading third-party loan origination systems. We expect this integration process to continue into the foreseeable future and may take a significant amount of time before it is complete. We are also working to integrate directly with those lenders that maintain their own, proprietary loan origination and servicing system technologies, recognizing that the time-lines for these integrations are heavily dependent upon the lenders' internal technology resources.

As a result, we could suffer unexpected losse outsourcing the underwriting of our mortgage insurance on certain loans to third-party underwriting service providers (USPs).

en | N/A | N/A | Leaving an impression is easy to do when you’re behind the wheel of the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee. After all, those smooth lines and strong bold grille make for one of the sleekest SUV designs you’ll find. Then, when you get behind the wheel, the adventure never ends with top road capability.
Ever wonder how the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee stacks up with its competition like the adventurous 2020 Ford Explorer? Let’s take a look today. Or, give the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee a run yourself by test driving this fine SUV at Spitzer Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Homestead.
W, available systems like 4×4 Quadra-Drive® II with Rear Electronic Limited-Slip Differential grant you the traction you’ll need to grip to the road (or boulders, rocks, and rough terrains) year-round. Don’t forget, a towing capacity of 7,200 lbs allows you to haul your boats, trailers, ATVs, and even a few work trailers to fuel your outdoorsy side or get a job done.
When you’re ready to hit the off-road trails, this SUV proudly wears the Trail Rated® badge, letting the world know it’s ready for action with high air intakes for crossing creeks and ponds, along with 10.8 inches of ground clearance.
By comparison, the 2020 Ford Explorer also packs Intelligent 4WD to cross any slick roads any time of year. And with 5,600 lbs towing capacity, it’s still capable enough to carry you to weekend fun.
There’s no denying both SUVs will lead you to epic and unforgettable adventures. But when you’re ready to venture off the paved path, you’ll want to do so in an SUV that’s designed for off-roading and wears a badge to remind you how capable it is. This round goes to the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
When you take a ride in the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, you can enjoy the full world around you with the dual-pane sunroof for a full glance at the sky and stars.
For listening to all your favorite tunes, the available Harman Kardon® Premium audio with 19 speakers gives you theater-quality sounds that are hard to find from any other vehicle. Beyond the sounds, you have your available Uconnect® 4C NAV with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ along with available refined quilted diamond pattern leather seats.
The 2020 Ford Explorer offers many similar amenities with a portrait-mode touchscreen and accent stitching on its available leather seats. For sound, your best option is a B&O sound system with 14 speakers.
This round’s super close. But imagine how much clearer and dynamic those extra five speakers will have your tunes sounding. It’s another win for the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Which Midsize SUV Keeps You Safest?
When you’re cruising in the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee, you’re protected by the standard ProTech I Package.let you know when it’s safe to change lanes.
You’ll also have ParkSense® rear Park Assist to help you squeeze into ultra-tight parallel spots and take front row parkings with ease. Ride d with features like BLIS® Blind Spot Information System. However, the rear park assist is an option.
This round’s almost too close to call. But just think about how nice it is to nail the perfect parallel park every time without needing to upgrade to an extra package. It’s another win under the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee’s belt.
When you’re ready to venture off the paved path, a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee awaits to take you there with its Trail Rated Badge. Try it out for yourself at Spitzer Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM Homestead by taking the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee for a test drive.
Working as your local car dealership in Homestead near Kendall Florida, we’re happy to announce that we have a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee for sale. To find the right options and packages for you, speak to a member of our sales team, and we’ll be happy to help. |
en | N/A | N/A | IF you had to work from home at any point because of coronavirus you could be due hundreds of pounds back according to Martin Lewis.
Even if you only worked from home for a day you could be due a whole years tax relief.
You'll have needed to work from home at any one point in the previous two financial years to still be eligible to claim up to £280.
Martin Lewis of MoneySavingExpert.com is encouraging employees to make sure they put in a claim NOW in his latest blog post.
Martin said: "If you, 2020 to April 5, 2022 and haven't claimed tax relief, then you can still claim."
"The same is true if you only claimed for one year, but were eligible for the other. It's simple to do for more, though there's a separate route if you fill in a self-assessment tax form."
You can get up to £180 per year in tax back if you have been told to work from home by your employer, even for just one40, so ancan get you roughly £280 according to MoneySavingExpert.com.
The nature of the job requires them r them to travel to those premises on a daily basis.
They are required, under government restrictions, to work from home.
If I chose to work from home am I eligible?
No. If you worked from home on the back of your own decisions you won't be eligible for tax relief.
Crucially, your employer must have required or asked you to work from home for you to be able to claim tax reliefee cash to cover expenses.
But If you're back-dating claims for the 2020 and 2021 financial years, you'll get he money as a lump sum through your salary.
If you previously made a claim for tax relief during the pandemic it's worth checking if your tax code is up-to-date today.
For non back-dated claims your tax code for the 2020 and 2021 tax years would have be adjusted automatically.
You would have then seen the tax relief directly through your salaryr pay on your earnings – so it's important you're on the right one.
If you're still on the code set when you applied and got accepted for tax relief the chances are, you'll be under paying your tax and could owe HMRC money in the future.
Check if your tax code is correct by using HMRC’s online tool now. |

Saturday, April 2: We looked forward to a jet boat ride – Roger excitedly, and me nervously. The wet and wild ride included 360 degree turns on a shallow river while dodging rocks and boulders. I’d recommend this fun part of our trip to anyone who is timid like me, but willing to try something new.
After shopping at the DFS Souvenir Shop in the mall, we joined the rest of the tour group for a delicious dinner at the Prime Restaurant.
Sunday, April 3: After an early breakfast, the tour group took a coach to the Queenstown Airport for a three and a half hour flight to the Rotorua Airport. We had lunch at the Lakeside Café before visiting the Jade Centre. Jade is called Pounamu in the Maori language. Afterward, we arrived at the Distinction Rotorua Hotel to rest.
At 4:15 pm we took the Te Puia Cultural Tour and saw kiwi birds in the Kiwi House. The kiwi is New Zealand’s national bird and kiwi is the nickname that New Zealanders are proudly called. We saw many geysers, mud pools that smelled of sulphur, and the Maori Song and Dance Concert. After the dancers’ presentation, female learn some of the Maori dance steps. Roger persuaded me to participate. It was exhilarating and lots of fun.
The best part of the evening was enjoying dinner at the home of Pamela and Willie, a three-generation Maori family. We were joined by two other couples in our group. The rest of the tour group dined with other families. Not only was the dinner delicious, but the conversation with Pamela, Willie, their daughter and daughter-in-law was enlightening. We were told that no topic was off limits. So we talked about the politics, racism, economics, and education in New Zealand and in the United States. We also enjoyed seeing the interaction between Pamela, Willie, and their young grandchildren. Afterward, we returned to the Distinction Rotorua Hotel to rest in preparation for the last leg of our wonderful trip.

en | N/A | N/A | Before Game of Thrones HBO wasn’t that great at doing adaptations. Sure, Trueblood was very successful but it wasn’t particularly faithful. In fact, there’s an entire season that consists entirely of what boils down to a chapter from one of the books. One season, a chapter. Stretching a bit thin you think?
But that’s not to say the show was bad, after all Trueblood did very well with audiences. And it’s certainly a good show if you separate it completely from the source material. Trueblood is one of those adaptations that stands alright on its own if you completely ignore that its an adaptation. But as an adaptation it’s pretty much a mess.
Season one is probably as faithful as the show ever gets, which is to say that most of the plot is there with a whole heaping portion of sex. As my mother put it “do they not realize there’s positions other than from behind?” Not something one often hears from a parent to be sure. Harris’ books have a bit of sex but nothing like the show. Unlike with GOT where a lot of that nudity and sex is on the page, the books in the series are pretty tame. For the most part.
Trueblood is definitely HBO’s practice run for GOT. Almost ever mistake they made with this show, they fixed for GOT. I just wish later seasons of the show focused more on plot and less on who is screwing who. That’s not why people read those books.
The show is decent but I never finished it. I like I made it 3 or 4 seasons in, watching casually. The show does not work for teens but the books aren’t for teens either. Mature teens certainly can handle the books with no problem but I think the show is a bit much.

Students will choose a problem from any area in physics that they can solve using the numerical techniques learned in the course. The problem should be complex enough that solving it requires a significant amount of effort. The code developed should be able to interact with an end user so that they can get a solution to the problem without much effort.
Students will present their software project in a final presentation during the final week of class. The presentation should explain the problem, how it was solved numerically and demonstrate use of the code. Choices about which numerical techniques were used should be clearly explained.
Online class meetings will be held over Zoom.

8:58pm May 3, 2020
An investigation is underway after a jailed child sex abuser – dubbed the "lollipop paedophile" – managed to write letters to a victim's family from behind bars.
Michael Cyril Hyde, aged 60, molested three young girls, including a child aged just 22 months old at the time.
Sex offender Michael Cyril Hyde sent letters from prison to the family of a child he molested. (9News)
He had befriended the girl's family while working as the crosswalk attendant for a western suburbs primary school.
9News and WAToday have obtained one of the letters, in which Hyde asks the young woman to help him secure a court appeal against his convictions.
The teenager is a sister of Hyde's youngest victim and was filmed by the paedophile during some of his depravity.
"All I am asking for is the truth to be told," Hyde wrote.
Labor demands Arndt be stripped of honours
The victim's family is appalled that Hyde's letters were not blocked before leaving Casuarina Prison.
An investigation is underway. (9News)
"I'm extremely surprised," the teenager said.
"I thought I wasn't going to receive any kind of contact from him at all. He's a liar. I thought he was a good man until I found out about the things he did."
"It is outrageous that this convicted paedophile can communicate with anybody at the victim's home," he said.
"The family must be traumatised. We'll make sure we put a stop to it."police may also need to investigate if the letters breach the VRO. |

Janine Robitaille for the Homeless People (IPH) is considering the future of the nonprofit organization, which has resulted in the past five years. IPH has been serving the community since 1984 and homeless individuals and families served by meeting their immediate needs, helping to find safe and affordable housing, and provided ongoing support through case management services to long term. The recent publication of the annual report of 2010 provided Janine and her staff recession of 2008. Janine reflects several challenges to its staff in the next year. Almost all programs running at full capacity IPH. The emergency shelter, featuring a night shelter for single men and 30 women, was full. El Paso Center had reached the limits of the existing facility and can not meet the growing demand for day services. There was a waiting list for permanent housing and increased competition for limited resources of government should be stronger evidence of the effectiveness of their programs. IPH needed to develop and grow the sources of business, organization and individual support for reducing reliance on government funding, increased in-kind donations, and effectively use volunteers to reduce operating costs. Janine considered several possibilities. Should we look for additional capacity in permanent housing as a way to create a more sustainable funding? Was it time to find a bigger Paso Center, providing space for new partnerships with other service providers and increased facility for the needy? Does it make sense to extend the services or activities of another neighborhood or town? The challenge was to determine which alternatives to pursue and how to finance existing operations. Janine felt it was probably time IPH involved in a formal strategic planning.

en | N/A | N/A | Recently a brave news organization made fun of the White Media’s claim that Russian tanks have been pouring into Ukraine for 14 months. The parody pictured Ukraine at a standstill. All traffic on all roads and residential streets is blocked by Russian tanks. All parking places, including sidewalks and people’s front and rear gardens have tanks piled upon tanks. The entire country is immobilized in gridlock.
There is little sign that Washington and its vassals care about life on Earth. Recently, the largest political group in the European Parliament–the European People’s Party–expressed a cavalier opinion about life on Earth. We know this, because, if we can trust Euractive, an online EU news source, the majority EU party believes that declaring the EU’s readiness for nuclear war is one of the best steps to deter Russia from further aggression. http://www.unian.info/politics/1070675-meps-believe-eu-should-be-ready-for-nuclear-war.html The aggression to be stopped by Europe’s declaration of its readiness for armageddon is the alleged Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the “further aggression” is Putin’s alleged intention of reestablishing the Soviet Empire.
When I read that the governing party in the European Parliament thought non-existent aggression had to be stopped by a declaration of readiness for nuclear war, I realized that money could buy any and every thing, even the life of the planet. The European People’s Party was speaking in behalf of Washington’s propaganda, not in behalf of Europe. Europe’s nuclear war with Russia would end instantly with the destruction of every European capital. |
en | N/A | N/A | Why are we so shocked by young, Western, well-educated females being “radicalised” to join IS (“What lies beneath,” Extra, 17/5)? Females have been taking up arms since the Greek Amazonians to fight for what they believed in, however dubious the cause. In AD60 or 61, Queen Boudica, of the British Iceni (Celtic) tribJust 40 years ago, university-educated women were joining groups in Europe such as the IRA, including Dr Rose Dugdale, the daughter of English millionaires, the Red Army faction Baader-Meinhof in Germany with Ulrike Meinhof, also from the upper classes, the Red Brigades in Italy with Mara Cagol at the helm and Leila Khaled, of the PLO.
The impetus was not disadvantage or discrimination but a “penchant” for terror to achieve their aims, mostly against Western imperialism as they perceived it. In trying to understand the forces that shape terrorism today, we must explore myriad intricate complexities; gender nor garb being any more of a central issue than it was historically. Females can be just as violent and/or misguided as their male counterparts. |
en | N/A | N/A | Nyen cursed and she landed softly on the ground, seeing what had unfolded. She knew this training wasn't going to be easy when she had stepped onto the field but she had a very low self esteem and after so many failed attempts at helping her teammate, she was beggining to feel a bit discouraged. No...
Kisuke would grin as he heard R'tari's voice coming from the same spot which he sent his senbon needles, however he was expecting to hear a groan of pain from them being embedded in his knee, but beggar's can't be choosers. "Let's speed things along shall we" He said as he made a set of handseals and his mouth would begin to spew a mass amount of water from deep inside, flooding the entire training grounds in water in hopes to knock down the very team he was trying to train. Sure it would seem to be a bit excessive, but would train them to ruthless. This would hopefully happen around the same time Nyen would poke her upper body out of the ground so that she would be knocked around too, but who knew what these two were truly capable of. "I said come at me to kill!"
R'tari would get hit by the wave of water and would be carried away by the current his internal organs battered by the churning forces of the water and once it subsided he would float to the top his head breaking the surface of the water only for him to cough out woodchips due to his injuries. Wait..what?
Gate of Opening..Release!R'tari said opening the first of the eight gates and making a hand seal resulting in 3 shadow clones forming around him one of them moving into a handstand before spinning rapidly to use Leaf Coiling Wind. This would result the mist being cleared in a 15ft radius around them to give them some visibility. Close!
As Nyen was rising from the ground and tapped on his leg, she felt a strange vibration coming extremely fast from Kisukes direction. She could tell by the rythm of the vibration and the force behind it that it was something big. Her skin darkened noticably before the giant wave hit her. "Fool!using water against earth." Nyen stood her ground, her Earth Spear completely covering her. She knew she would be slower now that she was using this jutsu but she combined this technique with her iron sand, forming a platform under her feet and at crashing ground speeds, rising to the surface. she now stood over the water, scanning the surface for any disturbance. She didn't like water since it made her unable to use her earth vibrations. the mist had been cleared significantly thanks to R'taris clones and she could roughly see kisukes in the mist where she had felt the vibrations before the feild had been flooded. Making me leave my comfort zone huh?
That is if you're not too scared that is?"
What if that was the point sensei?One of the clones said as with a twitch of the fingers four shuriken would come from six different directions (back, left, right, up) being guided by the first clone, leaving the only escape routes as the water surface as well as forward. Considering you are within my field of divination.. the clone closest to the water clone said moving into his stance. Due to the proximity between the two of them the water clone would visualize an eight trigrams circle underneath him with the water clone being locked in place as R'tari's clone used his technique. Dark Fist....Two..Four...Eight Palms of Death!
Awesome, we did it Nyen!R'tari said once he stopped spinning his shadow clones dispersing as he made his way over to his squad member to attempt to tackle her into a hug at crashing ground speeds. Ahem...I mean ...thank you sensei...he said realizing that he once again had acted without really thinking and if Nyen hadn't dodged his glomp he'd let go and look abashed. So...um sensei are we done with training for today?
The moments that had just unfolded were almost in slow motion. The water crackling, seeing Kisuke's spasms and finally the water dissipating. She stood up once Kisuke was alright. She was almost paralyzed, in a daze by what just happened. She quickly snapped out of it when R'tari glomped her. Nyen hadn't even seen him rushing her way. She had been so amazed that it had worked. I guess I'm not completely useless she thought. Nyen had never been one to praise herself. She knew she was ill trained and needed a lot more practise. Thinking back there were a few openings she could have taken, but hadn't. "Uhh...
R'tari would follow his sensei's lead while smirking, he liked this all his other sqauds had been dysfunctional in various ways ever since He died, but for once he had a squad that he could trust he just hoped when they got a third member it didn't mess up the team dynamic. I love bbq, maybe next time we all could go out and I'll introduce you guys to my girlfriend, speaking of sensei do you have a girlfriend?
"Come on Kisuke!I'm gunna cgallenge you to some pick uo stick while we wait for oyr food there, so you better not back out now! |

An airline's operating base is very important. Air Busan is an airline with a strong network based out of Busan, and Jin Air and Air Seoul have good networks out of Seoul Incheon. The integrated LCC will enhance the northeast/southeast Asia network from Incheon and Busan."
He stressed: "By consolidating these three airlines, it can become a top-level low-cost airline not only in Korea but also in Asia. It is still too early to disclose the location of the integrated LCC headquarters at this time."
"Since the aviation industry is a network-based business, the synergy of networks, aircraft, and human resources will be very limited if two airlines operate independently. Full integration is the best way to maximise the synergy of acquisition, and this will be the only way to retain and secure employment in the long term."

en | N/A | N/A | The 9 Types of UberX Drivers You’ll See This Weekend
By Rachel Surman | January 15, 2016
In this article: Life Fun humour Personality Uber uber drivers
If there’s one thing in life that’s for certain, it’s that young professionals living in Toronto absolutely love Uber.
But what makes UberX stand out as a service is all of the amazing characters behind the wheel that we get to share an intimate space with for 15-20 minutes, or however long the duration of the trip.
How many of your unexpectedly unreal nights out start with an amazing Uber driver that sets the tone with the perfect beats? How many almost-late-for-work days were saved by the speed-demon Uber driver who knew every important short cut? And what’s a Sunday morning without the involvement of the non-judgmental driver dropping you off at brunch for mimosas in last night’s outfit?
As an ode to some of city’s most beloved characters, we’ve rounded up the 9 kinds of Uber drivers we all know, love, and should probably track down so we can send them a fruit basket or something.
You know who we’re talking about. This is the Uber driver that is SO obsessed with his or her rating they almost remind you of that one over-eager significant other you finally brought home to meet the family.
This driver will first offer you a Werther’s Original, then a bottle of water, and some free Wi-Fi that they’re streaming from their iPhone. Whether you go all in or politely decline, they will then ask you at least one of the three following questions: “Is the temperature okay in here?” “Is this radio station okay?” “Is your phone charged?”
Consider yourself lucky if you land in The Impresser’s Uber – you’ll arrive at your destination more hydrated, your phone will have a greater battery life, and your breath will be smelling super sweet, too.
2. The Chatty Cathy
The Chatty Cathy Uber can be the greatest Uber driver in the world or the absolute worst depending on what kind of mood you’re in.
The Chatty Cathy literally wants to know everything about your life, and they also want to tell you their complete life story and all of the reasons why they love working for Uber.
If you’re tired after a long day at work, or super hungover, you’re probably not going to appreciate The Cathys of the city in the way you should. However, if you’re in a chatty mood yourself, you will most likely develop a close friendship at a record-breaking speed.
If you’ve never exchanged (real) numbers with an Uber driver, have you even lived?
This Uber driver usually drives a perfectly pristine white car that has a leather interior you can tell is vacuumed daily. He’s got all the cool new tunes from your favourite rappers, claims he has a personal connection to Drake and/or The Weeknd, and of course, he’s got a few of his own mixes he would like you to have a listen to.
The DJ is the perfect driver for a night out on the town and is notorious for working the Friday and Saturday late night shift because he just wants to get the people grooving. But proceed with caution, or else he may try to sell you his mixtape.
4. The Inspirational Life Coach
A personal favourite. The Inspirational Life Coach just gets you.
When you’re speaking with them, you can actually feel every wall you’ve ever built up around your cold heart come crashing down, and yes, your soul just cosmically collided with theirs.
Trust us, they DO exist, and they will offer you so much useful advice you will be seriously considering hiring them as a life coach before the ride is over.
They will also most likely recommend you a few books in order for you to take full control of your life and turn around to make eye contact at the end of the ride so you know it was real.
5. The Overly Cautious Dad in the Mini Van
This Uber driver has no idea where he’s going, what he’s doing, and relies on his GPS far more heavily than any driver should. But he’s just so adorable you can’t bear to give him the 3-star rating he deserves.
The best thing about The Overly Cautious Dad is that he’s driving a massive minivan and is oblivious to his children’s toys scattered on the floor, the McDonalds wrappers stuffed under the seat, or the fact that you can hardly squeeze into his van between the numerous car seats.
He also won’t start the car until your seatbelt is on and is SO concerned about you making it to your destination safely and in good time.
As he pulls over to the side of the road, he tells you for the 10th time to look both ways before you get out of the car. A not-so-casual “thanks Dad!” slips from your lips, so instead of looking both ways you just run. As fast as you can.
6. The Hipper-Than-Thou Driver
Also known as the “Cool Driver,” this driver has lived in Toronto all of his or her life and has a never-ending wealth of information when it comes to the city.
They know exactly where to eat, where to drink, fun things to do, and cool places to go – bonus points if it’s on the cheap.
You know you’ve landed in The Cool Driver’s car when you find yourself subtly questioning every going out decision you’ve ever made in Toronto, and pull up notes on your phone so you don’t miss a thing, including the spelling of that new sushi place.
7. The Non-Judgmental Sunday Morning Driver
You know the story – you wake up with no clue where you are and it takes about 10 seconds to realize you did not make it home to your apartment last night.
Thankfully your phone’s still at 10%, so you grab an Uber and get the hell out of there. You’ve hit the jackpot and your Uber is a super sympathetic driver who gives you that one look, hands you a water bottle, and asks if you need to charge your phone.
They ask you no other questions as you sit quietly in the backseat while you re-evaluate your life for the third time since New Year’s Day. Not that we’ve been in that situation before. Ever. Twice.
8. The Overly Aggressive Driver
The Overly Aggressive Driver sounds awful, but it’s all about timing with this one.
On a regular day you might sit in the back seat, clutching the door handle so hard your knuckles turn white. But when The Overly Aggressive Driver comes to the rescue on that one day you were too late to walk or take the TTC – you will be eternally grateful.
9. The Score Driver
Also known as the “Did I Just Order UberBLACK by Accident?” Driver. They are the unicorns of Uber drivers but they’re out there, you’re just not Ubering enough.
Once you’ve established that no, this is still UberX, you spend most of the trip mentally questioning how this person is driving Uber but also maintaining insane insurance payments and maintenance costs.
The Score is also used to driving around downtown Toronto, plays cool music, and is able to get you where you need to be in record time. Yes, The Score is a godly creature, and they are the reason the 5-star rating system exists in the first place.

8. Hurricane Mitch (1998)
Hurricane Mitch Statistics
Total Damage: $9.79 billion (adjusted for inflation)
Formed in the Caribbean on October 22, 1998, Hurricane Mitch encountered extremely favorable conditions. In only 4 days, Hurricane Mitch attained Category 5 status on October 26, making it one of the most rapidly-intensifying hurricanes on record.
Throughout October 29 - Nov 3, Hurricane Mitch slowly moved throughout Central America, dropping record-breaking amounts of rain (up to 75 inches) in Honduras, Guatemala, and Nicaragua. Deadly floods and rainfall killed up to 11,000, and displaced nearly 2.7 million. The total damage from the flooding was estimated at $9.79 billion, adjusted for inflation.
7. Hurricane Katrina (2005)
Total Damage: $138.07Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, most of eastern North America
Hurricane Katrina began forming on August 23, 2005, over the Bahamas. After passing over Florida, it began to quickly deepen and grow in intensity. By August 26, Katrina had become a Category 5 storm, and began moving toward southeast Louisiana.
Though damage was done in several states, and the effects of the storm reached all throughout the eastern United States, the most catastrophic damage was done in New Orleans. Over 50 levees were breached by the hurricane, which caused nearly 80% of the city to become flooded, killing over a thousand in New Orleans alone.
6. Hurricane Camille (1969)
Hurricane Camille Statistics
States Affected: Virginia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, most of the Eastern Seaboard
The coast of Mississippi was flattened by the storm, and flooding continued inland towards Virginia. Overall, more than a dozen states were affected by the storm, and it's estimated that Hurricane Camille killed over 259 people.
5. Hurricane Allen (1980)
Hurricane Allen Statistics
States Affected: Southern Texas
Hurricane Allen was the first hurricane to form during the 1980 Atlantic hurricane season, and it was also the strongest. This is rare - usually, stronger hurricanes form later in the year. It formed on July 31, 1980, and quickly became a Category 5 hurricane.
Hurricane Allen was exceptional in many ways. It attained sustained winds of 190 mph - the highest recorded in an Atlantic hurricane, and spent more time at a Category 5 designation than any other hurricane on record.
Throughout the course of its life, the hurricane passed over Haiti, the Gulf of Mexico, and southern Texas, causing heavy damage, plentiful rainfall, and causing nearly $4 billion in damages throughout its life, as well as 290 fatalities.

2. Hurricane Gilbert (1988)
Hurricane Gilbert Statistics
Hurricane Gilbert was formed on September 8, 1988, and is one of the most intense hurricanes to have ever struck the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. It is also one of the single largest storm systems to have formed - at one point, its winds measured more than 575 miles in diameter.
After forming on September 8, Hurricane Gilbert quickly picked up steam, intensifying into a Category 3 hurricane on September 11, and striking Jamaica. After passing through Jamaica, the storm intensified further, becoming a Category 5 by September 13. It then made landfall over the Yucatán Peninsula, and continued into the Gulf of Mexico, where it made landfall on Mexico as a Category 3 storm.
Given its positioning of the storm, the United States was not affected by most of Hurricane Gilbert's devastating effects. Damage was limited to Texas, where Gilbert caused a 3-5 foot storm surge, and 29 tornadoes caused by the inclement weather.
1. Hurricane Wilma (2005)
At least 62 deaths were reported as a result of Hurricane Wilma, and nearly $38 billion in damages was done - at least $26 billion in the US alone. This ranks Wilma as the fifth costliest storm in all of United States history, and it remains the most recent major
Preparation - The Only Way To Stay Safe From Hurricanes
If you're worried about hurricanes this Atlantic Hurricane season, we recommend you take appropriate precautions - especially if you're on the east coast of the United States, or in the Gulf of Mexico.
Always listen to NOAA broadcasts if there is a hurricane bound for your area, and make sure to evacuate if you're told to. It's not worth risking your life. Consider also setting up an emergency alert system using advanced software like DialMyCalls.

en | N/A | N/A | David King has brought forward the idea that habits you have now could be causing some damage.
Mr King explains that there have been cases of people blowing their noses so hard that they have caused damage due to the pressure they created.
'In most of these cases people had underlying chronic sinusitis or an existing weakness in the structure they damaged after blowing too hard,' he said.
People have fractured the base of their eye sockets, had severe headaches and have forced air into the tissue between the two lobes of the lung.
Mr King understands why people blow their noses so hard as when mucus is kept in the nose not only does it cause irritation, but it also has a chance of moving to the throat to create a cough.
'get it out, so blow gently or by clearing one nostril at a time. Use of appropriate treatments can lessen the need to blow, and the force required to clear your nose,' he said.
Mr King recommends people buying decongestant sprays, saline nose sprays and performing a technique called nasal aspiration, which is when you squirt liquid saline up your nose to flush out mucus and debris.
This is because we want to remove things from our nasal passages we don't like.
According to Professor Jeremy Ward, a respiratory physiologist at King's College London, due to the irritation air is forced out through the nose and mouth at high speed, dislodging whatever it was that tickled the nerves. |

"Until the 1990s," says Henry-John Belmont, "everything was centralized via Cartier, which, at that time, accounted for 90 percent of the group's results. In 1999, the owner, Johann Rupert, decided to give a larger degree of autonomy – mastering the procedures, fabrication, distribution, and communication – to the nine brands that he owned. But, on the industrial level, the group was not too confident of its abilities, with the exception of making cases, thanks to Cartier. Not possessing the desired manufacturing expertise, the group decided to buy LMH."
"Some of our brands not only already had their own movement, but they also had them. But this was not always the case. Other brands did not have the necessary 'surface' or know-how to create their own integrated manufacture."
"Val Fleurier responds precisely," adds Belmont, "to the need of developing a movement strategy for each of our brands. We have created this structure to help the different brands, which have not yet mastered the production chain, to better understand the mechanical movement. Val Fleurier therefore has been set up to design movements based on the specifications and needs of the brands, and to produce the component parts. Progressively, however, the assembly and various additions to the calibres should revert back to the individual brands."
This arrangement allows the design of five or six new calibres per year and the fabrication and finishing of 20,000 exclusive movements (with 50,000 movements over time). In all, there are already more than 150 employees, including 25 engineers. "We decided to set up our facilities in Neuchâtel and the Val de Travers because this region is not yet saturated, and it is very interesting for its timekeeping history, the quality of its environment, its proximity to major transportation networks, and its pool of highly qualified workers."
To the question of whether having a technical bureau in Neuchâtel, far from the production site is not a handicap, Eric Klein, Assistant CEO of the manufacture – and a one-man band – answers with his customary vivacity. "Actually, the opposite is true; it is an advantage. The technical bureau can spend time on its tasks without being interrupted by minor production problems on a daily basis, thus allowing it to become fully responsible. And also, since we are totally integrated, our computer access allows us to have real time communication with production."
Here, a virtual prototype is constructed, with complete and dynamic computer simulation. On arrival, "everything can be put together directly in the first assembly," says Klein, adding, "This does not mean that it is already reliable at this stage, but it does work from first being assembled, which gives us an exceptional reactive time." In the spirit of rationalizing production operations, "the gears and movement blanks are perfectly adaptable elements, which allows us to create for various small series. But the mechanisms require many operations. For example, the pull-out pieces and levers, etc., are reused."
About 100 people work there, including 30 watchmakers, who are divided into ateliers that are purely manual and artisanal (hand chamfering, for example, for tourbillon cages, circular-graining, satin-finishing, line-drawing, guillochage, barrel assembly, adjustment of screw balances, etc… |

Criminal Circumstance by Kenneth Land, Pamela Wilcox
Thepropose two levels of analysis: individual and environmental. At each level, the theory pivots on three broad organizing constructsoffenders motivated to commit criminal acts, targets such as persons or property suitable as objects of criminal acts, and the presence or absence of individuals or other defensive mechanisms capable of serving as guardians against criminal acts.
Crime is profoundly real, possessing qualities that make its occurrence and prevention pressing and persistent matters for individuals and societies. Theory, in contrast, is seen as highly abstract and removed from the seriousness of "real life." Theory almost seems to be a peculiar sport of an academic class. The practically minded, even some academic criminologists, are often perplexed by the seeming obsession some scholars have with theory, which, after all, is nothing more than an explanation of facts. The practically minded, seeing a compelling need to identify the crucial factors that could be used to predict and prevent crime, wonder why anyone would invest precious time and energy into speculating about the abstract, underlying details of why crime occurs when and where it does.
The authors contend that every intervention, prevention, and policy is based on some theoretical explanation of the causes of human behavior. The improvement of interventions, preventions, and policies is thus directly related to the improvement of theoretical understandings of the abstract, underlying details of the causes of crime. The development of explanations of events, when properly done, is a crucial component to understanding and possibly improving the "real world." This work does just that.

Meniscal irritation may occur as the result of a more minor incident and have milder symptoms. In older adults the tear may be the result of natural age related degeneration of the meniscus or may be the result of an arthritic joint surface rubbing on and damaging the softer meniscus.
Blood supply to the meniscus and therefore its ability to heal varies depending on the region. The red zone on the outside of the meniscus has a blood supply from the joint capsule and may heal without surgery. The white zone does not usually heal due to a lack of blood supply.

The use offor regenerative therapies confers a considerable risk for neoplastic growth and teratoma formation. Preclinical and clinical assessment of such therapies will require suitable monitoring strategies to understand and mitigate these risks. Here selected clones that continued to express reprogramming factors after differentiation into cardiomyocytes, and transplanted these cardiomyocytes into immunocompromised rat hearts post-myocardial infarc, cardiac ultrasound, and serum biomarkers for their ability to delineate teratoma formation and growth. MRI enabled the detection of teratomas with a volume >8 mm(3). A combination of three plasma biomarkers (CEA, AFP, and HCG) was able to detect teratomas with a volume >17 mm(3) and with a sensitivity of more than 87%. Based on our findings, a combination of serum biomarkers with MRI screening may offer the highest sensitivity for teratoma detection and tracking. </s> Hougang returned to league action with a win after a bye last week thanks to a late winner from Faris Ramli, who kept his cool from the spot after Nazrul Nazari earned the penalty.

en | N/A | N/A | Hi, myself Jayashree Sengupta, a civil engineer by profession, now researcher at IIT Kharagpur, with an appetite for traveling places in a more instinctive way- absorbing the culture and the tradition, the dialect and the geography of the place. So in a way I like traveling in between my research.
My blog is more of a showcase of the places I visited, through my lens and words to the other person (bedouin) on the other side of the computer screen and hence the name 'DoiBedouin' representing the presenter and the audience solely.
Well before starting the blog I was already into research, I am still pursuing it. I started blogging as a hobby, honestly because the newsfeed of facebbok got boring.
So I thought of writing about the places I visited along with the photographs I clicked. (My peers said that my clicks are improving after I started blogging, which really feels good.)
Well that would be SEO. I started off as a simple blogger then I got to know about search engine optimizations and stuffs that would really help my blog. With time I realised that blogging is as hard as doing research.
We researchers do a literature survey before getting into our full fledged work, in a similar way I read about the hows and whys of blogging and I interacted with fellow bloggers to know about the same. As a whole, the rank improved and traffic is getting a bit better.
Well my blog is 10 months old and 6 months after I got the domain, and the DA improved to 24 within this 6 months. Still a long way to go really.
No not yet. For brands to notice I think I have to wait a few more months.
To be very honest, my scholarship. From the blogging perspective, I have adsense approval few days back; the income is yet to touch the minimum level.
I use Blog compass to understand the trending searches.
Pinterest app and Mix/Stumbleupon app is very useful as an agrregator app. Any social platform would be great from that perspective.
The most useful is the alexa and moz shortcut on your browser toolber. Infact IndiBlogHub has the widget for it which helps the other bloggers to understand the score of your blog, which in a way help you to get guest blogging opportunities, thus giving the backlink options.
Interact with the world, interacting with others will give you insights into DA, PA google ranking, which are neccessary for your blog to get noticed.
Write your heart out on your blog and reach out to the world with a little bit of SEO.
It is a wonderful platform, I specially like the guest post interaction forum and the "Social Presence and Ranking Widget" helps a lot. |

en | N/A | N/A | All of the great monster movies are tragedies. Though there doesn't seem to be any obvious reason for it, it's something essential to the genre. Perhaps because it forces a moral reckoning: we stand in awe of the mighty beast, yet what terrible power do we wield that destroys it? And, beyond the moral implications, that equivalency plays on anxieties about our own mortality. What should be a celebration of victory inevitably becomes a contemplation of the impermanence of all things. The King is dead. Long live the King.
Still, I'd forgotten how much this is true even of the original King Kong. I'd seen both remakes much more recently than the original, and of course they both heavily play up the idea of Kong as a sympathetic character; in contrast, I assumed, to the original. That's true to an extent - this Kong certainly spends a lot of time growling and eating innocent bystanders, and there isn't much in the script to suggest anything other than a vicious killer. But Willis O'Brien's outstanding animation adds an entirely new dimension. Faced with a character that can't speak (not even in silent film intertitles), O'Brien nevertheless provides Kong with arguably the best performance in the film. One shot in particular caught my attention, shortly after Kong has recaptured Ann from her high-rise bedroom: he glances over his shoulder, and the angle, up-turned brows, and bright eyes shining in the darkness of the concrete jungle betray - only for a moment - immense uncertainty and fear. The rather simple plot of King Kong tells us about the "old world" of myth, gods, and nature falling before the footsteps of modern civilization (both the planes and the Empire State Building represented the pinnacle of American technological dominance at the time). Kong's performance makes it clear this is a bad thing, or at least a sad thing. His sympathetic side is a lot more understated than in later versions, but I actually like that better. It means Kong's true nature is there to be discovered by those willing to look past the monster, forcing the audience to go through the moral math themselves rather than getting it spelled out. And the '33 Kong is really the most tragic of them all you know. At least later Kongs had Ann/Dwan on his side (for all the good it did), but here even she can't get over her terror. He is utterly alone. That's another trait all the great monsters share. Come to think of it, underneath the social messages about technical advancement ('33), masculinity in the modern age ('76), and, uh.. something about Heart of Darkness ('05), the essential story of Kong is pretty much a remake of The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
Technically, the film holds up quite well (we watched the Blu-ray, which looks terrific for its age, though not as crisp as The General). Only five years after The Jazz Singer the art of sound design has matured dramatically. The soundtrack was lush and well-balanced; didn't notice any dead spots. As is frequently mentioned, the airplane sequence was especially impressive. The humming and swooping of the plane engines was tempered so well it was almost musical. As for the visuals, well, the direction was by-the-book, but the effects... wow. Last time I saw the movie I was too young to appreciate what went into them. And it's not just the animation itself. The stop-motion was imaginative and clever, but definitely a bit unrefined compared to what Harryhausen and others did with it in later years. Some shots were better than others. But the amount of integration between the animated models and live environment consistently blew me away. This is a similar case to what I said about the camerawork in Sunrise, in that they just went to way more work than they had to.
This single shot involves multiple layers of matte paintings plus multiple layers of live action, including smoke, bubbling water, and two live actors - all created separately and layered in through both in-camera and post-process techniques. Plus the Kong puppet. The entire movie goes to these lengths.
They could have shot the actors, and then shot reverse angles of miniature sets, but instead dinosaurs and live actors are jammed into the same frame, preferably overlapping, as often as possible. They could have shot everybody standing still as they look at the fallen stegosaurus, or just passing by the frame, but instead they choreographed some crazy tracking shot to follow them as they walk in front of a stop-motion miniature (and the movement lines up perfectly). They could have cut back and forth when animated Kong throws something, and then it lands on a live action set, but they did it in one shot. Repeatedly. They could have changed the script so Kong doesn't have to pick up and put down Ann so often, or they could have done it off-screen, or behind an obscurement, but instead they do constant on-screen transitions between puppet-Ann and real-Ann just to sell the illusion over and over. And it doesn't quite work, to my modern, educated eye. But it's surprisingly close, and I love that they went to the effort. Over and over. And finally the best part is the airplane finale. Everything comes together there - the best sound, music, and visuals of the entire movie. The swooping point-of-view shots from the planes add a lot of energy, while the editing and sound shape the tension perfectly. The pacing of the scene is top notch, and holds its own against any movie made since.
So, that's a lot of praise. What can I say... I'm a sucker for dinosaurs. But there are a couple rough edges. Kong gets in about one fight too many, dragging down the momentum somewhat in the middle. Jack Driscoll is a fairly unlikable drip, and his, "Say; I guess I love you," ranks as one of the all-time silliest romantic lines ever (perhaps up there with the non-sandiness of Padme). And Fay Wray's Ann Darrow is believable enough and not too off-putting, but so useless one almost suspects that the movie's theme - "it was Beauty killed the Beast" - really means women are a nuisance after all and shouldn't be allowed on boats. The remakes clearly recognized these issues, and did their best to attack them head-on, to varying success. But on the whole I think the original version has now become my clear favorite. Peter Jackson's film is pretty, if a bit vapid and meandering, and Dino De Laurentiis'... well... gets points for trying (Jessica Lange's performance is completely underrated, btw - critics of the time just didn't understand what she was doing). This one, however, is the total package.

en | N/A | N/A | (treatment for parasitic intestinal worms), De-worm the World and GiveDirectly (directly transferring money to poor individuals, allowing). These charities are doing some great work- for example a child can be de-wormed for only 53 cents, and a bed net to protect against malaria-carrying mosquitoes can be bought for around $5. Donations are going directly to these tangible solutions thatin need.
This is where I see a problem with the core philosophy of EA. It has a very black and white outlook on altruism; if you give to fewer people with the same amount of money you are valuing some lives more than others. I find that to be a harsh and unrealistic claim. By giving $85 to training a deaf individual in skills to find employment, I am not giving less value to the lives of children with malaria.
Altruism is not about doing a constant cost-benefit analysis in our minds. Sometimes there are experiences that we have that shift our attention towards one cause, without valuing that human life over the millions of others in need. Altruismthink that EA sometimes leaves out this human connection and empathetic aspect of giving.
Johnstuart argues that “giving would be more effective if people were more empathetic. Where is our empathy for children dying far away, if we are giving to causes that do much less, all because the beneficiaries live closer to us or suffer from ailments we are familiar with?” While I agree with this, I think that giving to a cause with which you have a close familiarity/connection is not necessarily akin to a lack of empathy towards other causes.
Apart from the moral and philosophical roots of EA, what impact is it having on sustainable international development? Development is a very complex, multilayered phenomenon, withto name a few. Yes, de-worming a child would substantially increasrn/be a contributing member of their community. But does it really contribute to the long-term development of a society, or is it more of a quick “Band-Aid” solution? Wchild does not get intestinal worms again, or that healthy children in a rural village will?
The logical framework is essentially quite simple: with a donation, you buy inputs (expertise, technical inputs etc), you use the inputs (project activities) to achieve results (two levels of results: a first one, effects; and a longer-term one, impact, causing an actual change in society). It looks almost like a formula: input+activities=outputs leading to effects and impact. All of it measurable (in principle, not so in practice, but there’s no space here to explain why). Donors have always wanted to know what kind of bang they got for their buck. And cost effectiveness is only half the story, in fact, the terminology can be even further refined: what you really have is cost efficiency and output effectiveness, and one can even happen without the other. But when your project output is in fact effective, you are indeed obtaining an impact on development (presumably the ultimate goal of any aid project).

en | N/A | N/A | He’s playing the porcelain music box. Jesus, they left him armed. She and her mother took more than half. Now the corners are empty and the hard wood floors scratched. ‘God dammit,’ I whisper and it echoes for hours.
‘Do you want some coffee? Don’t wind that thing up again.’
The stove is out so we’re using a hot plate for everything, but the switch doesn’t work. I have plugged it in for ON and unplug it for OFF. Hot or cold. No middle ground.
The kitchen has great bald patches of dustless places, places where Christmas or Halloween had been. The microwave is gone. A devastating blow. I’d bought it for them last year. I hated her then and hated her plucked eyebrows even more now. She was always, always either hot or cold, too.
The teeth of the music box being wound chatters off the walls. It reminds me of a gun and the hair shivers on the back of my neck.
The kitchen window is still open and still broken where mother and daughter had entered and ran. I imagine them full of deer hair and bracelets, huffing and sweating over CD cases and silverware, like black bears at the dump, ‘Don’t forget the coffee, that’s good coffee. Take the damn coffee and put it in the box with those towels and shoes. Don’t leave him shit.’
My mom used to unplug the toaster. Even if it had been cold for hours, she’d come by, unplug it, and then walk on, satisfied. One day, my brother asked why. When she was 10 there had been an accident. Burnt the house down to the ground. The rye bread blackened to a flake. She had run out of the inferno, with livestock bumping and mooing against each other towards Highway County C. And under the bare moon, she stopped and twisted. Realizing she had lost hope of getting the house back or surviving her parents near return, she started to dance. The red flames from the porch and the popping blue sounds from the windows played like a tune on those 10 acres, and my mom danced to it like it was the last waltz or jig on earth. Her feet wet on the midnight grass.
‘Want to go out, let’s go out. Get the hell out of here,’ I say.
The dustless circle where the blender had one been looks obscene.
‘Let’s go. Come on. Whiskey sours on me.’
He came into the kitchen and put the music box on the counter.
It looked sad. Haunted.
I grab his arm, never having grabbed another man’s arm before, and pull him outside towards the car.
‘Start it up. I forgot something,’ I say.
‘I want gin, not whiskey,’ he says.
It will be a great story for my kids. |

en | N/A | N/A | Moving home can be expensivelocating. Before you get started, go through your old stuff and decide what you want to keep. Also, consider whether to donate some of it. In some cases, moving companies will help you move. Otherwise, you can rent a truck.
Moving house is an expensive and stressful eventoving, it is best to get a good idea of the cost before you start the moving process. This will allow you to budget for the move and make a more informed decision on whether the new house is affordable or not.
The cost of moving home varies greatly depending on the type of home and its size. The costs of hiring a moving company, estate agent fees, legal fees, cleaning costs, temporary storage, and mail delivery services are just a few of the costs involved in moving a home. Experts recommend that you budget between PS9,000 and PS12,000 for moving a house.
The process of moving home includes unpacking room by room, transferring furniture, and checking utilities. It can also require a new internet connection, which isn’t included in the cost of relocating. Hiring a removal company can make this task easier. Moving company fees can range from PS500 for a two-bed flat to PS750 for a three-bed semi-detached house.
in the cost of stamp duty if you’re buying a home in the UK. Stamp duty may vary depnew home, and the price of the home.
In the run-up to moving,e first thing to do is to clean your home thoroughly. Don’t forget to fill up any holes in the walls. You can use toothpaste or ivory soap to do this. You should also defrost and drain any appliances.
Another important aspect of moving is getting organized. You should also pack your least-needed items first, as this will make the transition less stressful. Remember to pack clothing that you will not need until moving day, as this will save you time and energy during the day of moving.
Notifying your service providers is an important aspect of moving home. If you have children, it’s a good idea to find a new doctor and dentist. If you’re moving far, you’ll want to have some time to locate these professionals. You’ll also need to find a reliable mechanic.
Before you move, make sure to inform your landlord that you are moving. Most landlords will contact you a month or two before your move to confirm your lease. In addition, you should notify your utility companies of your upcoming move. It’s also a good idea to contact the previous owner of the house so that you can set up a cut-off date.
The cost of hiring a moving company to move your homu have. The average cost is about $1,000. However, the cost of packing materials can add up to $2200 to your total costLastly, you must consider the cost of temporary storage, which can cost anywhere from $20 to $450 a month, depending on the space needed. For example, a two-bedroom apartment on the ground floor will cost significantly less than an apartment with an elevator and stairs.
You can also find free moving boxes by asking friends, neighbors, or Craigslist. You can also get moving labor for free from friends and family members. Some employers even cover the cost of moving. Additionally, you can check out seasonal rates to see if you can find cheaper rates. Some moving companies also offer discounts if you move during the off-season.
You can negotiate the cost of hiring a moving company by asking for an estimate for the moving services. Most moving companies are small to medium-sized organizations, so they are often willing to negotiate. Asking about the price at different times of day can help you get the best deal on the cost of movinghousehold items you hav to $2,400 for local moves. Additional costs include transportation fees, materials, and gas.
The cost of renting a moving truck when moving home is an expense that should be carefully calculated before making the rental. Rental prices vary based on your moving distance and the size of the truck you need. Additionally, n gafor extra miles, which can add up to extra charges on top of the truck rental rate.
Before signing any rental contract, inspect the truckfeatures you need. Poorly maintained trucks may break down or require costly repairs. It’s also important to consider how you’ll transport your personal car to the new hous and require extra liability coverage.
Typically, a one-bedroom home can be moved within 50 miles of the rental location, but moving out of town will incur an extra fee of about $1 or $2 per mile. However, moving a one-bedroom home is not significantly more expensive than moving a two-bedroom home. The cost of renting a moving truck includes a flat rate plus mileage charges. Using the truck more than once will increase the fuel expense and mileage charges.
The deposit to rent a moving truck is usually $100. This deposit is refundable if the truck is returned in good condition. Moving truck insurance covers personal, cargo, and truck protection, use personal insurance policies do not always cover the entire cost of renting a truck.
The cost of renting a moving van when moving home can vary widely. The price you pay will depend on how long you need to hire the van. Most moving van rental companies rent out a vehicle for a specific period of time. This means that you may only need a smaller van if you’re moving just a few items, or you may need a larger van if you’re moving a lot.
In addition to the cost of the van itself, it’s also important to factor in fuel costs. Most moving truck rentals get about eight to 12 miles per gallon, depending on their size and weight. If you’re moving long distance, you’ll need to rent a truck that can accommodate your long drive and still get to your new home. That’s , and you’ll also need to cover the cost of additional gas.
When comparing rental rates, make sure to compare prices for one-way and round-trip rentals. One-way rentals tend to be less expensive, but you’ll have to pay for gas, taxes, and other fees. A round-trip rental will be more affordable if you’re moving within the same town.
One option that might save you money while still renting a moving van is to purchase portable storage containers. Some companies will deliver storage containers to your house and transport them to the new one. Some even provide storage space for your storage containers. In addition to saving money on a moving truck, you’ll also be able to enjoy more flexibility.
When moving long distance, a truck rental company’s location is crucial. This will affect your gas costs and your moving time. It’s also important to research the gas mileage of moving trucks to determine which one is more fuel-efficient. |

en | N/A | N/A | When the HK universities expanded their undergraduate curriculum from three to four years in 2012 onward, many new questions arose about what university students should learn and how teaching can be most effective. Dr. Shive of the HKAC brings a wealth of experience in designing and carrying out simulations for use in academic courses and training settings. The HKAC has offered simulations to its member universities at the course, faculty, or whole campus level. These have included the annual G-20 Summit, the COP meetings of the UN on climate change, moot court exercises, the Six-Party Talks in the North Korea nuclear program, and formulating a common code of conduct for the South China Sea. The HKAC also uses Open Space to organize conversations among many parties about complex problems. We simulate the UN COP meetings each year, and we adopt the moot court process to advocacy exercises that help students present their cases for climate policy in local, regional, and global settings.
In fall 2019, you have the chance to be a part of one of our Climate Change Education Simulations! Join the Youth Climate Summit on October 12, to discuss with like-minded students the issues and opportunities for climate action in Hong Kong, or be a part of the UN Climate Change Conference COP 25 Simulation on November 23.
Both events are free of charge for students, registration is needed, first come first serve.

Olympian Jennie Finch on Celebrating Life and the Power of Running
Home › Journal › onal. “Breast cancer is something that has really impacted our lives,” she says. “And I couldn’t be more thrilled to collaborate with Mizuno and Fleet Feet for Project Zero.”
She’s talking about the breast cancer research initiative created by the two brands that kicks off this week (Thursday, September 27). To understand more about what motivates Finch to be a spokesperson for breast cancer, we took a few minutes to ask her some questions. And, as one might expect, running—and how it changes everything—naturally made its way into the conversation.
How do you use your platform as an athlete and role model?Go get a mammogram.
In your opinion, if there is one thing we’re not doing enough of now to support breast cancer research, what is it?
It is as simple as an appointment, as taking your health into your own hands. You just have to go and do it. I know I should do self-exams more than I do. So, yes, while raising funds for research and treatments is incredibly important, we all need to make our health a priority. Early diagnosis works.
Since I’m a mother of three, running is my time to escape. While I love running with others for accountability (starting out, I wouldn’t have put in the work without them), I also find that running is a great time for me to be quiet, to reflect and to pray.
