The car returned from the paint shop with the damaged panels repaired and resprayed. We also opted to paint the bonnet, roof and boot white. Inverse blue stripes were added too, giving the car a overall more professional look for this year.
The final pre-race checks have been done, refitting the fire extinguisher, checking the operation of cut-of switches, lights and adjusting safety belts.
The ride height was re-checked and adjusted (using the adjustable spring perches on the dampers) giving us a couple of mm over the regulation minimum at the front, with around 10mm higher at the rear. Some height had been lost due to wear on the tyres and one spring perch coming loose and dropping slightly. We also rechecked the wheel alignment and are going stick with dead straight at the rear and 1mm of tow-out at the front.
The 2013 BRSCC Porsche Championship starts at Rockingham near Corby in the midlands. | 2019-04-24T08:16:04Z | http://www.ggoodwin.net/2013/04/a-new-look-for-2013-season.html |
On 30,June. 2015, Dr. Dong, together with Kaige Gao and Tuotuo Xu, from SCC Center, went to Well Completion Center of COSL to discuss about the topic of "Comprehensive Evaluation of Mechanical Sand Control Screens" for technical interchange and cooperation. More than 20 technical personnels from departments of COSL attended the meeting.
Dr. Dong introduced the latest research progress in the Comprehensive Evaluation of Mechanical Sand Control Screens from background, suggested research content, implementation plan, technical routeline, expected outcome, basis and foundations, case study. After the report, Dr. Dong answered the questions from the attendences, and continued to talk about the future cooperation with them.
Recent years, SCC Center undertook a series of research project concerning sand control in heavy oil reservior with thermal production and mechanical screen evaluation. The research work were spoken highly by the employer. | 2019-04-22T07:14:30Z | http://www.sandcontrol.com.cn/english/Html/?435.html |
Martial arts aren’t all about breaking boards and breaking arms; martial artists have also been known to break their own fair share of hearts. But don’t let that stop you, because men and women who practice martial arts offer a ton of great benefits to potential partners. Want to find out more about why your next lover should be a black belt, or at least halfway there?
1. They have high confidence levels.
People who engage in regular martial arts often carry themselves a little differently. Look at guys like Steven Seagal, Bruce Lee, or pretty much any current UFC champ and you will realize something right away: these guys are oozing with confidence. Whether you are a female or a male, there are few things more attractive than being with a person who is supremely confident that they can take care of themselves and protect those that they care about.
2. They have small or nonexistent egos.
Arrogance is actually the result of low self-confidence and insecurity. Sure, the wanna-be tough guy walking around flexing at the gym looks “tough,” but he is probably just a scared little boy inside of a balloon suit. When a person is unsure of who they are and lacks self-confidence, they often walk around puffing out their chest, criticizing others, and acting tough in order to project an image of confidence. Someone with confidence is attractive, but someone with an ego twice the size of Texas is just about as annoying as a rock in your shoe. Ego is the false projection of confidence, and it almost always leads to bad things.
People involved in the martial arts are almost always physically fit. I know from being a competitor at some of the largest Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitions in the world that most of the people walking around are sporting six-packs and bulging biceps. Personally, I trained up to 6 hours a day at times, and with that much working out, you are bound to get fit in the process. Martial artists often treat their bodies like a temple and avoid things that will detract from their health. They are always active in some way or another.
4. They are better lovers.
Not only do martial artists have better stamina from being in great shape, but people in the martial arts are often much more in touch with their bodies, more balanced, more flexible, and more in tune with the bodies and reactions of others. I am going to keep this article PG, so I will let your imagination run wild with that one for moment.
5. They have more discipline.
Martial artists not only discipline their bodies through drilling, hard exercise, and physical conditioning, but they also learn to control their minds as well. Martial artists must develop the power to force themselves to do things that are uncomfortable. They must continue to train even when they are tired, sore, or getting beaten. A true warrior of the martial way has to learn to be in control of themselves at all times, and it helps them to develop tremendous personal discipline. Are you bad with diet, budget, or setting goals? Find a martial artist. They can probably teach you a thing or two.
6. They are better listeners.
Martial arts require a high degree of concentration and focus in order to excel at practice or competition. The same powers of concentration that allow a warrior to seize an arrow out of the air or dodge a punch will allow your new partner to listen to your problems, offer solutions, and be a shoulder to lean on in tough times.
7. They are happier people.
Have you ever wanted someone who just rolls with the punches, passes through life, and encourages you to smile all the time? A martial artist is a person who often takes things lightly, learns to exist within the flow of life, and finds joy in the small and passing moments that many of us take for granted. Who doesn’t want to date someone who is happy? More confidence, less ego, less anger, and a quiet dedication to the body and the mind: all these things make a martial artist a happier person.
8. They are gentle and slow to anger.
The martial way is not one of violence and bloodshed, but rather one of patience, virtue, and peace. A true warrior doesn’t go around provoking fights or arguments, but avoids confrontation and fighting when possible. I don’t know about all martial artists, but I know my instructor won’t even kill a spider that walks out onto the mat, and I am the same way. I am not saying that a martial artist is someone to walk on, just that they probably are the last person that will start screaming in your face.
The martial way is one of humility, respect, and honesty. Martial artists often dedicate their lives to cultivation of their spirits, bodies, and minds, and along with these pursuits, they must learn to develop strong core values and beliefs. A person with integrity—a clear focus on what they believe and value—is much more likely to be honest than a person who has no purpose in life.
10. They are dedicated, faithful, and loyal.
Martial artists often devote their lives to those closest to them. Along with their strong values comes a strong sense of belonging and responsibility for and towards those they love and care about. A martial artist sees him or herself as a tool to protect honesty, integrity, wisdom, truth, and all things good in the world. If a lifelong practitioner of the martial arts tells you they want to be with you forever, you better believe they mean it. They will probably stick with you through fights, adversity, challenges, temptations, and anything else life can throw your way. | 2019-04-19T18:49:11Z | https://www.lifehack.org/285891/10-reasons-why-you-should-date-martial-artist |
Owning a vacation home abroad in an exotic location is a commonly shared dream – and for those serious about making their dream come true here are the five main things to remember when homes buying abroad.
The dream of owning a vacation home in some sun-drenched overseas location is one the majority of us share, and because real estate proves itself time and again as a solid long term investment commodity, many more people are committing to purchasing real estate abroad as an investment that they and their family can also enjoy and benefit from.
When buying a vacation home abroad there are a number of key considerations to bear in mind to avoid some of the traps and pitfalls sometimes associated with buying long distance and in an unfamiliar country. With these 5 tips for overseas vacation home buying success you can quickly cut a swathe through the research process and move towards securing the dream swiftly and securely.
Different countries have different rules relating to the right or otherwise of foreign citizens to own the freehold title to immovable property. Some widely publicised destinations don’t allow foreigners to directly own the land on which their property sits (Bulgaria) or more than one property (Cyprus) for example, and some countries are less economically or politically stable than your own which can mean that real estate related rules and regulations may change in the future. Make sure you’re comfortable with the workings of the country you’re considering buying a vacation home in, and if in doubt seek professional advice about that country and the ambitions you hold for owning a holiday home in it.
If you’re buying a vacation home with a hope that it will go up in value and be not only a family retreat but a great asset, know that real estate, just like any investment commodity, can go down in value as well as up. Furthermore not all countries have a real estate economy the same as the one in your own country – a little research would be wise into the historic nature of the property market in your country of choice as well as predictions for its future. While such data is not a direct indication of how well your investment will perform it will arm you with more data to hopefully make your decisions easier.
Legal systems and the title deed registration process differ from country to country therefore know your legal rights and try and find out about the essential searches, surveys and title deed checks that need to be conducted before you should commit to buying your overseas vacation home. Never enter into any form of contractual agreement without the direct assistance of an independent lawyer and never accept someone’s word that a vacation home has its permissions and title deeds valid and up to date. Insist on seeing and checking all important facts and data before signing on the dotted line.
If you’re thinking about making an income from your vacation home or even hoping to holiday in it yourself regularly, one of the most important factors to bear in mind is the accessibility or otherwise of your vacation home. If your real estate is difficult to reach, with many miles to traverse and complicated and expensive plane journeys to plan, then it will just become a less desirable commodity over time. While a vacation involves getting away from it all and escaping every day life, a vacation destination and home should be easy and affordable to reach.
Consider enlisting the help of a reputable real estate agent, an independent lawyer and if you want to make money from your vacation home, a property management service. Such professionals can save you time, effort and money and they can make the whole process of buying and owning a vacation home that much simpler. Make sure you take references, examine credentials and see qualifications before employing anyone to assist you however, and if at all possible seek recommendations because anyone who does a good job will always get good press!
Let us guide you through the process with our international network of real estate professionals. As Global Property Specialists we are uniquely qualified to assist you in purchasing real estate internationally.
Northern Virginia is caught in the midst of a revolution – not one of shifting governments, but of shifting demographics. Once upon a time, the area was primarily home to Caucasians and African Americans. That’s shifting today. Residents of Asian descent now make up a significant portion of the population, and they’re finding a welcoming community to call home. As of 2010, Asians made up 13.6% of the area’s population, compared to just 3.2% in the 1980s.
In a story from the Washington Post in 2011, you can glean hints of just how long the shift has been on going. In mid-May of 2011, reporters Carol Morello and Dan Keating highlighted the fact that the Washington D.C. area’s Asian population had grown by 60% since 2000. They also highlighted an interesting breakdown in Asian populations throughout the greater area. While Indians might be the most populous segment in Fairfax and Loudon counties, and Koreans called Centreville home more often than other areas, Chinese residents most frequently move to D.C. and Montgomery County. Specifically, the cities of Rockville and Potomac now boast a high concentration of Chinese residents.
Only Boston has more Chinese residents than northern Virginia on the East Coast.
Only New York has more Japanese residents.
Only New Orleans has more residents of Vietnamese descent.
What’s behind the influx? Actually, there are numerous reasons, but one of the prime causes is the shift in employment options. As northern Virginia becomes home to more and more information-technology jobs, highly educated Chinese residents find it more appealing. This is particularly true near the high-tech corridor close to Dulles International Airport.
Another reason for the surge in Chinese (and others of Asian descent) moving to northern Virginia is the relative affordability of housing. While not “cheap”, you’ll find properties of all types available for prices not found in areas with comparable proximity to government seats, employment, shopping and dining options.
A decade ago, you would have been hard pressed to find an Asian grocery store in most towns in northern Virginia. Today, that’s not the case. You’ll find mom and pop stores, but also chains like Great Wall. There are numerous others either already entrenched in the area, or making plans to start their presence. This includes everything from grocers to clothing to nightlife and restaurant options. You’ll even find that theaters throughout the area have begun showing Asia-specific films. Bollywood is one example, but Chinese exports are close behind.
It’s more than just a trend – northern Virginia is in the midst of a cultural shift, and Chinese residents are making up more and more of the population. | 2019-04-19T20:51:47Z | http://propertiesworldwide.com/author/monicamock/page/4/ |
SVG is an XML markup language for describing two‐dimensional vector graphics, both static and animated.
That’s a pretty big deal; static or animated images which are marked up with XML, meaning you can use the DOM to manipulate them. Interactive images; imagine the possibilities!
Gecko is the rendering engine used in browsers such as Firefox, SeaMonkey, Camino, Epiphany, Netscape, and more.
Mozilla have announced the release of Gran Paradiso Alpha 3, the latest step on the road to Firefox 3.
Notable in this release is support for the APNG format, which aims to provide the simple animation style of GIFs, but with the advantage of PNG’s transparency support. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get any of the examples to work.

I’ve started using the sIFR method on a few sites, and it’s pretty useful; it does introduce a whole new set of challenges to your development, however — notably with the use of z‐index and transparency, especially in IE (of course) — so use with caution. | 2019-04-26T12:41:55Z | https://www.broken-links.com/2007/03/ |

One aspect of intentcasting that fascinates me is how recursive it is. VRM is the manifestation of a desire for intentcasting in an environment which lacks a framework for intentcasting. It needs to bootstrap itself in order to fully express itself. The whole project is so meta. This is why it is subtly amusing to talk seriously about the existence (or not) of demand that cannot possibly be measured in a vacuum. There’s a long list of things I anticipate will emerge after the VRM boot-up, all of which are predicated on the presence of something on which to build. These will in turn will give us the vantage point from which to imagine applications we can’t possibly predict or forecast demand for today.
I remember having an eerily parallel discussion with my manager at Equifax back in the early ’90s. You can’t do business on the Internet. Computers are just for playing games. No serious business would have a web presence. Consumers won’t want it.
Of course at the time you could have that discussion seriously due to the uncertainty of the platform. All those statements were true then and it wasn’t entirely clear that the Internet would be the globally disruptive force that it is today. At the time, I was the crazy one in that discussion and all I really wanted was online banking and electronic access to my own credit report. I didn’t know until much later that I wanted things like Wikipedia, Netflix streaming, and a WordPress blog that makes this post possible. In hindsight I don’t feel like the outlier. At the time I as the eccentric employee my manager was afraid to invite to meetings.
Now it’s 20 years later and I’m having the same discussions. You can’t do volume business if all your customers are peers. Privacy is dead and the Average Joe is OK with that. Average Joe has no interest in his transactional data and doesn’t know what he’d do with it if he got it.
There’s something I learned doing security that is broadly applicable and is generally overlooked in this argument. All systems are built on foundational assumptions. When you apply those architectures to new models, the foundational assumptions may break in non-obvious and potentially catastrophic ways.
Consider privacy in the digital world. Current attitudes about privacy inherit their legacy from a world of atoms when there was a significant cost associated with surveillance. This meant that the foundational surveillance technologies were all based on an assumption of targeted investigations. Moving from a world of atoms to a world of bits enabled surveillance at a resolution only dreamed of previously and at a per-person cost approaching zero. The baseline for surveillance technologies is no longer targeted investigation. Today’s strategy is simply to capture everything about everybody and mine the data as needed.
Our system of legal privacy protection is based on a world of atoms and embeds the implicit assumption that cost imposes a natural limit to the extent of surveillance. The move to bits breaks that foundational assumption in ways that are not obvious and potentially catastrophic. For example, in the 1983 United States v. Knotts case, the court found that “Nothing in the Fourth Amendment prohibited the police from augmenting their sensory faculties with such enhancement as science and technology afforded them in this case.” This ruling was later cited in October 2012 in the US v. Mendoza case as justification to allow warrantless installation of wireless video surveillance devices in exterior locations on private property.
But eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable whereas audio/video recordings are refutable as to integrity but not as to content. Unless you can prove the recording was altered, there is no defense. Whatever it shows is assumed to be reliable. In every detail. Forever. The move to bits enables reliability, granularity and durability of testimony that is orders of magnitude greater than eyewitness testimony, at an incremental cost approaching zero, and with no indicator that is detectable to the suspect. In dealing with this, new case law has a greater affinity for previous case law than it does for changes in the foundational assumptions on which the old case law was predicated. The result is the minting of unprecedented and broad new government power.
I used court cases as my example because the forces at work are transparent. The discussions I’m having lately are more about corporate behavior tracking which is anything but transparent. Unlike the government, corporations are under no obligation to afford you due process before surveilling you. Almost any web page you visit is packed with stealth trackers that follow you as you navigate the web site and even across multiple web sites. The technology enables extremely fine-grained tracking of your behavior, correlated across many aspects of your interests and over long periods of time. These trackers are designed to be undetectable to ordinary users. Tools like Ghostery reveal their presence but also trigger an arms race. Each new privacy enhancing tool spawns new versions of trackers designed to defeat it.
Consider privacy in relation to IoT – the Internet of Things. Cisco says that 50 billion devices will be online by 2020. Others predict trillions of devices in the not-too-distant future. Where will all this instrumentation reside? Anywhere there’s electricity. Large appliances like washer/dryers and refrigerators are a given. Individual light bulbs, switches and outlets are on the market now. Forks are a current example of instrumentation soon to be embedded into much more mundane objects.
I like to use the example of electric motors. Steam engines were big and noisy and you needed large stockpiles of fuel to run them. The design architecture for the steam age was a single large motor and a system of belts and pulleys to distribute the motive power throughout the factory. The first electric motors were envisioned to replace steam motors within the same architecture: one big motor, lots of belts and pulleys. But what actually happened was that electric motors disappeared into the fabric of life. There’s one on my wrist as I write this. There are roughly 30 within arm’s reach of my chair. Electric motors are invisible. We don’t think of them as motors, we think of them as a watch, hard drive, CD/DVD player, printer, sprinkler valve, drill, toy, fan, vacuum cleaner, etc. At least with the electric screwdriver we make a passing allusion to the motor within but pretty much everything else it’s just assumed. A hand drill used to be just a drill. Now “drill” without the qualification is assumed to be powered.
Imagine the same thing with instrumentation. In the near future a “smart switch” will just be a switch. A “smart” anything will just become that thing and the old version will become a “dumb thing.” The instrumentation will no longer be a novelty but will recede invisibly into the fabric of life. When steam engines were replaced by electric motors, it was hard to imagine a time when motors would fit on your wrist. It’s just as difficult today to imagine why we’d want sensors and actuators in all our devices and objects but let’s table that and stipulate that it happens.
What is the impact of all that data?
The move from atoms to bits reduced cost and improved granularity of surveillance by orders of magnitude. The move from coarse-grained “smart objects” to pervasive embedded instrumentation will advance us several additional orders of magnitude. We dream of living like the Jetson’s or the crew of the Enterprise, but struggle with a legal system on a trajectory that more resembles Gattaca or Minority Report. When it becomes possible for sensors in your car to analyze alcohol on your breath will it be acceptable that the car will refuse to start? Will we allow consumers to opt out of such controls and if so how much of a surcharge will insurers be allowed to tack on? After all, if you have nothing to hide, why hide your data?
By the way, to those who claim we can refuse to participate, have you tried lately to buy any kind of content player that does not include an iDock? Tried opting out of a smart power meter in jurisdictions where they are protected by law? These are trivial examples compared to the question of whether you’ll be able to opt out of using sinks and toilets with built-in chemical analysis capabilities. Currently employers who conduct drug tests do so occasionally at random or specifically in connection with an investigation because cost limits the practice. But when incremental cost drops to near zero the baseline will shift to ubiquitous surveillance. Anything with a liquid drain will analyze contents. The presence detection and recognitions we have today are sufficient to correlate your identity to the chemical analysis.
In the very near future your casual behavior and activities will be trackable with the precision and detail only possible today in the confines of a lab. Every device, object or surface will potentially be a sensor. The physical constraints assumed by the current legal framework and that balanced the power of individuals against corporate and government interest are disappearing. The digital representation of you that was once a rough tile mosaic is coming into focus for vendors and government as a hi-def, crystal image.
VRM, or Vendor Relationship Management, is a new approach to conducting business in which the missing physical constraints have been replaced by technological and policy constraints that restore the balance of power between individuals and their vendors, and perhaps to some extent also their governments.
One of the issues is asymmetry in the cost of data collection. Vendors spread the capital cost of data collection over a large population of customers. Given enough time, the cost of data collection drops to near-zero or in some cases actually generates returns. Consumers on the other hand have no such infrastructure. You are co-owner of your transactional data but your grocer records each line item of your purchase in real time and you get a cryptic paper receipt which you have the option to transcribe into a database. If you had a database. And knew how to program.
VRM proposes to provide that platform so that individuals will have the means to capture more of their own data at a cost that is competitive with their vendors. Indeed, the vision is that the vendors who already have that data will some day participate in the VRM ecosystem by sharing it with their customers, in real time and full resolution. Instead of just a crappy paper receipt with unreadable abbreviated names, you’ll get the actual line items with UPC codes, prices and for some products possibly even the cradle-to-grave history and status. You’d get your smart meter readings in real time so that you could program home automation behaviors based on load, utility rate, occupancy and so forth. When you purchase online, the terms of the contract, price and all other metadata about the purchase would either be captured by you or delivered to you in real time by the vendor.
But VRM is about a lot more than just replacing today’s functionality. Just as electric motors transcended the function occupied by stem engines, VRM enables entirely new capabilities. Many are yet to be discovered but a key new capability is intentcasting. This is a direct signal from the individual to the market about preferences, requirements and purchase intent. For example, you would have the option to set a preference that your vendor must deliver your transaction data electronically. You may even be able to set a bounty on such a service: “I’ll pay a 5% premium on digital content if you deliver full purchase metata electronically at close of the transaction.” At the moment such a setting would be nothing more than a preference that few, if any, vendors would honor. However, if people set that preference in sufficient numbers (or with sufficient bounty attached) to motivate vendors, that capability would naturally emerge.
So VRM is about restoring the balance of power between vendors and their customers, and it is about crating new forms of interaction that only become possible when the consumer has technology comparable to the vendor.
In the ’90s this conversation was about embracing the Internet. I took the position that everyone would be on the Internet and that business would be conducted there. Lots of business. My manager thought I was a crackpot. Two years after I left that job, Bill Gates published The Road Ahead, a book largely dismissive of the Internet, then almost immediately revised it when he realized the Internet really was the next big thing.
Today my position is that IoT is coming so embrace it. It is inevitable and it is closer than you think. If you start with 50 billion instrumented things (or trillions if you are ambitious) and work backward, what do we need to build to pave the road between here and there? I propose that privacy and parity of power in the commercial relationship must be protected primarily by code rather than law and that these must be restored before IoT can emerge and blossom. There may be laws behind the code, but you can’t police 50 billion things other than through code. Systems based on the VRM philosophy are where such code would live. In that respect, I don’t arrive at VRM by starting in the current day and working forward, but rather I see it as a hard prerequisite for any possibility of managing a world where everything is instrumented.
This is all speculation and there’s enough uncertainty that reasonable, serious people take the opposing view and I am once again the crackpot. I’m OK with that. I’ve been here before. Reasonable, serious people will continue to debate the viability of VRM even as it rises around them, built by an army of people willing to back their vision up with code, caffeine and pizza. I tried to contact Bill Gates to discuss all this but he was unavailable for comment. Presumably, he’s busy reading my blog and revising the draft of his next book.

It’s only a matter of time before I get penalized for not putting a Progressive Snapshot like device in my car, sad but true.
Which gets back to framing. Right now you’d be offered a discount for using such a device. When the device is baked into the car, the baseline will be contingent on the device data and disabling it will become a penalty. This already happened with seat belts, catalytic converters, etc. The difference is that with surveillance devices the value is in the data rather than vehicle functionality and the current regime was built on the assumption that such data is costly and self-limiting. Because it’s digital it is neither of these things and yet when they introduce the penalty it will be compared to seat belts and catalytic converters.
Change is inevitable growth is optional ~unknown~ Growth is not accomplished by fighting the current model or system. Growth is accomplished by simple making a current model or system obsolete, thereby replacing it with an improvement. That’s a change worth working towards to grow.
T.Rob, your extraordinary means of articulating the future is no just refreshing it is often mind-boggling and blogging to. Thank you for being you. | 2019-04-19T07:28:47Z | https://tdotrob.wordpress.com/2013/03/27/futurists-groundhog-day/ |

This review first appeared in the December 2013 issue of San Diego Troubadour.
San Diego’s legacy of great female torch singers tilts toward the blues side of the aisle: Jeannie Cheatham, Ella Ruth Piggee, Missy Andersen. As far as straight-ahead jazz singers, Peggy Claire and Cynthia Hammond have been among the best known, but neither carved out as large a niche as Cheatham, Piggee or Andersen.
Sacha Boutros has both the pipes and the touch to bring jazz singing to the same levels of attention as the blues as long enjoyed in the local scene.
Sacha’s latest CD, “NY After Dark,” finds her surrounded by a stellar band worthy of any national release: Terell Stafford on trumpet and flugelhorn, a rhythm section of Peter Washington (bass) and Lewis Nash (drums), guitarist Peter Sprague and pianist John Di Marino, along with percussionist Tommy Aros.
And Sacha (she is apparently going by her first name for her stage name) more than holds her own in this top-flight company, turning in classic reading after classic reading of standards ranging from “The Best Is Yet to Come,” “I Believe In You,” “Devil May Care” and a languid version of “A Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square” that utterly sparkles.
Another standout is a bossa nova turn of the Rodgers & Hart gem “I Didn’t Know What Time It Was,” anchored by Sprague’s rhythmic comping on guitar. On the very next track, Lewis adds a rich duet vocal on “Gee Baby Ain’t I Good to You” that reminds more than a little of the late Lou Rawls.
Gifted with a deep voice with dark timbre and decent range, Sacha has worked hard over the years to couple her natural talent to a well-honed skill and turn that voice into a true instrument. She knows how to use space, how to hold a pause, how to ride just behind the beat to best effect. Most of all, she has presence.
In other words, she has learned how to sing.
The result is a remarkable album of vocal jazz, likely to be one of the very best collections of straight-ahead jazz singing released anywhere in the world during 2013. | 2019-04-23T11:56:10Z | http://trageser.com/music/album-sacha.php |

Grabbing an actual paper copy of a newspaper is a pretty rare thing for me in this technological age. One of the last ones I grabbed was for the sole purpose of cutting out an advertisement I had designed for my portfolio. Before I could even open it to begin searching for my ad, a front page headline grabbed my eye.
This article jumped out at me primarily because of the fact that I personally don’t like pills, but I also found myself thinking; “of course a safe drug is elusive, it doesn’t exist.” The article touched on so many things I am passionate about in my own life, and I felt compelled to write about them.
Now, I originally wrote this as a letter to the editor, only to be hampered by a 250 word limit. I am slightly irritated with whomever set this limit – because they apparently do not know me at all. So I decided to postpone all other musings and share my thoughts about the crap that is making the front page.
This waste of time and resources not only disturbs me, it completely blows my mind. Humans. Are. Animals. If someone want’s to lose weight, they simply need to look at the laws that govern all mammalian species; diet, environment and lifestyle.
Did these researchers recommend a pill to help the gorillas? Of course not, that would be ridiculous. They put the gorillas on a diet of foods that they would normally eat in the wild; their natural diet, consisting of things like romaine lettuce, green beans and flax seeds. This change yielded many positive results for all of the gorillas, one of which involved weight loss of 65 pounds each. I wonder how different our lives would be if we had spent a centuries worth of time and money teaching people how to eat and exercise in way that is appropriate for our specific species?
The article quotes a Dr. Mitchell Roslin, who said that “Having a drug for obesity would be like telling me you had a drug for the fever.” I had a moment of false hope, thinking this was beginning to be spoken in a language I understand.
Then Roslin stated that there can be millions of reasons, with “various underlying mechanisms” that result in obesity. This statement gave me pause. Roslin, as a chief of bariatric surgery, has chosen a career focused on weight loss surgery, and is likely very invested in the possible underlying causes of obesity. I am not doubting the Dr.’s intentions at all, but what if we can start with something much more simple? Science and hormones aside, I truly believe it can be as simple as this; Eat real food, take a walk, and don’t let anyone tell you that you are broken beyond repair.
I am not a scientist, or a doctor, but at one point in my life I was about 40 pounds overweight. I hated the way I looked, I started having anxiety attacks, and eventually became depressed. Doctors with good intentions looked at my family history of anxiety and depression, then put me on a variety of medications that came with side effects that left me wanting the anxiety attacks back. I finally decided I did not want to live my life like that. I took it upon myself to learn as much as I could about natural relief and what I put into my body.
What I have since learned is that the underlying causes of these ailments were not in my genetics. Our genes are designed to seek homeostasis, they adapt and improve over time, provided they are getting what they need. The causes were simply ignorance and poor lifestyle choices; Both of which I have complete control over and neither of which were fixed by the plethora of little white pills prescribed to me.
Dr. David Katz, of Yale University’s Prevention Research Center is quoted talking about how throughout history, calories were often hard to come by, and that “We have no defenses against overeating because we never needed them before.” I would love to know what contextual information is surrounding this statement and what type of research he is basing it off of.
What I do know is that there is quite a bit or research that shows the human body has several defenses against overeating, as long as you are eating real, whole food. In his opening to The Protein Debate, “The Evolutionary Basis for the Therapeutic Effects of High Protein Diets” Colorado State University professor, Loren Cordain, tells us that consuming dietary protein is one of these defenses. There are three primary macronutrients, fat, protein, and carbohydrate. Of these three, protein causes the greatest release of an appetite reducing hormone found in the gut, called Peptide YY. It also simultaneously improves sensitivity to leptin (yet another appetite controlling-body weight regulating hormone) in the central nervous system. Now, I can’t speak for everyone, but if I had to choose between a big juicy steak and and a pill that may come with nausea, headaches and vomiting…I am picking the steak every time.
Not necessarily wanting to counter my own argument, but the human body is complicated. While it does adapt, there are things that can happen, such as leptin resistance, that really can make it harder for someone to lose weight. I believe it is important to address these issues, while still applying our personal choices. Does this mean you just give up and keep living the same lifestyle that got you here? I sincerely hope not. Start with something simple. Recognize that sugar is an addiction, and that eating just one cookie really might be a bad idea, especially in the beginning. Moderation is not always key, and in our society it may actually be helping your metabolic disorder.
The article ends with mention of the 1930’s failed drug, dinitrophenol, that increased metabolism, but also caused things like “fever, swelling and deadly toxicity…” The Food and Drug Administration was then established as a line of defense against untested drugs in 1938.
What I really wish was mentioned in this article are the extreme changes in WHAT we are eating that have taken place, just in the last century alone. In the beginning of our existence, humans used to have to expend energy to hunt, gather and prepare real food. There were no supermarkets with carts to carry our food for us, not to mention a selection of food mixed in with an even larger selection of chemicals masquerading as food. Think back to even just 50 years ago when there was no such thing as organic, grass-fed or free-range. Why, you might ask? Because EVERYTHING was organic, and animals were fed their natural diets. In the end, it is simply our choices that matter the most.
Picture a big bowl of broccoli sitting next to a big bowl of chicken nuggets. We all know the broccoli is the healthy selection, but who will actually make the choice to eat the broccoli? If you do, and proceed to eat the whole bowl…well I would be shocked to find one person that has ever gotten fat because they ate too much broccoli.
Personally, I am confused as to why the chicken had to be processed down, chemically altered, breaded and fried into a nugget, when the thigh or breast was fine just how it started.
To those of you who have put up with me long enough to get to this point, I invite you to take control of your own life. Educate your to make better choices, and don’t just go on a diet, change your lifestyle. Give yourself a chance to not just survive this life, but to thrive and enjoy everything it has to offer. Maybe the next time a headline about a diet pill grabs your attention on the front page, you will be asking different questions. | 2019-04-26T06:30:12Z | https://feedingyourgenes.com/2014/06/12/question-everything/ |

I used to be able to hook up my 2011 MBP to my flat screen with the Rocketfish Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. Now when I close the laptop to use in clamshell the Samsung TV says This Mode is Not Supported. Weird, because it worked fine a few weeks ago, now it doesn't. I even tried a few different settings in the Display Preferences...nothing. I tried plugging in the thunderbolt adapter before booting, and after booting and restarted the computer while it is already plugged in. Nothing. Yes I have the MagSafe attached.
If I have the MBP open, it works fine. Soon as I close the lid it displays the error on the TV. I am using the BT Keyboard and Magic Mouse. I also have BT Devices can wake machine enabled.
Any got a guess? Or do I need to call Apple?
does it work with the screen open?
I stated in the original post, I am use a Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Magic Mouse. I also mentioned I have the mag safe plugged in when I have the MBP hooked up to the TV.
Guess I will have the recheck the cable, or mess around with settings again.
Since it isn't likely that is your problem, the easiest step to take in your trouble-shooting is to get another cable.
I am still not having any luck with this dilemma. I bought this mac in late Aug or early Sept. Can I still call Mac Support for free? Or at least email them for free?
Assuming that is Aug or early Sept of last year, yes you can call. You have free support for a year.
EDIT: Correction, it is actually 90 days of phone support.
the easiest step to take in your trouble-shooting is to get another cable.
You get 90 days free phone support; to extend the time period you will need to buy extended AppleCare. The L.A. Computer Co. and B&H Photo tend to have the best prices.
I suggest posting your problem on the official Apple forum. There is also a Samsung TV forum here: http://forums.cnet.com/samsung-forum/.
I believe that included telephone support is 90 days. You are still under warranty so I would bring it in to a store if you can't figure out the cause of your issue.
I live about 2 or so hours away from an Apple Store.
Weird, it's like clamshell mode is switching the external output mode (from something supported like 1920x1080 to something not).
Is it a 15 or 17 with the discreet GPU?
I only ask because that combined with something like gfxCardStatus can create some funky operation if you've tweaked the prefs in gfxCS (I sometimes forgot to re-enable the discreet mode for using my external after running on integrated).
I have the 13" with HD 3000 Graphics. | 2019-04-24T06:35:43Z | https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/clamshell-mode-not-working-anymore.1314299/ |
This time of year I am usually producing machine knit felt hats for sale, on my 260 Brother bulky KM. They are knit sideways, and require seaming on their completion. Photos of some steps in process, taken a previous year: There is a lot published on methods to graft open stitches using kitchener. Hand knit magazines both in Britain and here have begun to present joining a variety of pattern stitches with with charts that visually clarify the process. A small portion of such a chart: With bulky knits such as my hats, I like to take open stitches onto circulars and sew them together by hand as shown below, beginning on right, and with the knit side facing me.
joining knit ending on waste yarn, purl side facing joining knit ending on waste yarn, knit side facing joining garter stitch ending in waste yarn Diana Sullivan offers youtube videos showing how to join pieces with waste yarn endings with their purl side or knit side facing respectively.
Seam as you knit is an option for joining vertically. It is a technique that may be used to attach bands, parts of a sweater, or strips of knitting, whether for the sake of additional width, changes in color, or attached with purl side facing the knit side if that is the goal. The piece on the machine is always purl side facing. With each row knit, a “loop” is created on the carriage side, while a “knot” is formed on the opposite side as the row is completed. The process then reverses as the carriage returns to its original position. The technique may be done on either, or even both sides at once. The first piece(s) is (are) completed and taken off the machine. Begin the join to piece with a cast on row or waste yarn. For a test, with COR: pick up the first knot or loop on the completed piece. Hang it on the left end needle/ stitch on the cast on work (opposite the carriage). Knit 2 rows. Go to the next knot or loop on the completed piece, place it on the same left side needle/ stitch. You are hanging on the far needle opposite the carriage every 2 rows.
The knit fabric, purl side facing A one eyed tool is inserted from front to back through either a loop or a knot, and hung on the first needle hook / stitch on the right, left, or even both sides of the piece every 2 rows. Joining “loops” generally works well in standard gauge knitting. On the bulky, or where a “tighter” seam line is needed, join “knots”.
The same method may be used to join the side edge of any piece of knit to any portion or location on the one in progress. | 2019-04-21T20:13:15Z | http://alessandrina.com/2016/12/08/ |

In a continual effort to provide the safest roadways, the Nevada Department of Transportation is installing centerline rumble strips in the median of selected state roadways, particularly two-lane rural roads with high fatality and injury rates or concerns.
For many years, NDOT has utilized rumble strips on the shoulder, or edgeline, of state roadways. NDOT’s installation of edgeline rumble strips has thus far helped reduce interstate run-off-the-road crashes by 42 percent.
Now, the Department is augmenting the safety benefits seen from edgeline rumble strips by also placing centerline rumble strips in the center median. These centerline rumble strips are being used in other states to reduce head-on and sideswipe crashes.
The use of centerline rumble strips was developed as one cost-effective way to reduce fatalities and increase safety in the state’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan. The plan brings law enforcement, transportation agencies and safety advocates together to define ways to reduce Nevada traffic fatalities.
Commonly consisting of 12-inch wide, ½-inch deep parallel grooves cut into the centerline of a roadway, tires running over rumble strips produce sound and vibration when drivers veer out of their lane. By alerting and allowing motorists to correct their vehicles, head-on and sideswipe crashes can be reduced.
Centerline rumble strips can be a particularly effective safety device on two-lane rural roads where there is no divided median or room for barriers to separate opposing lanes of traffic.
In Nevada, over 40% of all traffic fatalities are caused by run-off-the-road and head-on crashes. Sixty percent of these crashes are on rural roadways. NDOT conducts extensive surveys to determine the safest, most effective safety measures for state roadways, and expects centerline rumble strips to reduce crashes on rural roadways where run-off-the-road and head-on incidents are most prevalent. | 2019-04-26T04:51:16Z | https://www.nevadadot.com/safety/roadway-safety-improvements/rumble-strips |
Cheryl & Shea Bailey, of Yellow Umbrella Travel, a destination wedding travel agency, have been amazing with helping us with all the booking details.

To be considered a part of Shannon & Clint’s Wedding Group and receive the pricing, you must book through this group room block and not through any other method (even directly with the hotel).

Justin Bieber was the night's biggest winner, taking home 3 trophies including favorite artist of the year, beating out Rihanna, Katy Perry, Maroon 5 and Drake for the top prize at the American Music Awards Sunday.
Rapper Nicki Minaj repeated her wins from last year, taking home awards for favorite rap/hip hop album (for "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded") and favorite rap/hip hop artist. She and Rihanna went into the ceremony with the most nominations - four each. Rihanna, who was on tour and did not attend, won an award for favorite soul/R&B album (for "Talk That Talk").
Taylor Swift won her fifth consecutive award for favorite country female artist. "This is unreal. I want to thank the fans. You guys are the ones who voted on this," she said.
Canadian pop singer Carly Rae Jepsen, 26, picked up the coveted new artist-of-the-year award over One Direction, Australian artist Gotye, indie-pop band fun. and rapper J. Cole.
Other awards went to Linkin Park for best alt rock artist, Luke Bryan for best male country artist and Usher for best male soul/R&B artist.
Sunday's show from the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles marks the AMA's 40th anniversary. American Music Awards nominees were selected based on sales and airplay, and fans chose the winners by voting online.
On Thursday evening, November 1, 2012 the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville was once again home to the Country Music Association Awards. Hosted by Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley for the 5th consecutive year, the show began with an introduction chock full of pop culture references including a parody of “Moves Like Jaggar” by Maroon 5, Underwood and Paisley dancing to “Gangnam Style” and, of course, a reference to Taylor Swift’s latest breakup with Conor Kennedy.
The first performance of the night was from Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, and Eric Church who sang “The Only Way We Know” together after dedicating the show to all those affected by Hurricane Sandy on the East Coast.
Other winners included Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton for Female and Male Vocalist of the Year, Little Big Town took home Vocal Group of the Year, and Hunter Hayes snagged New Artist of the Year. | 2019-04-20T09:13:21Z | http://blog.onlinesheetmusic.com/2012/11/ |
Branching plumes of tiny creamy-white flowers appear in June and July above the deeply cut green foliage. Emerging in spring with a bronze flush the foliage will turn buttery yellow in autumn before it dies back. This is a slowly spreading perennial which will gradually form dense clumps so it makes a very effective groundcover for moist shady beds. For the best results choose a spot that remains reliably moist over summer.
Garden care: Cut back the flowered stems back hard to just above ground-level in autumn and apply a generous mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant. | 2019-04-22T18:03:33Z | http://www.plantadvice.co.uk/plants/groundcover-plants/aruncus-aethusifolius/2468 |

The hacker had sent the player a keylogger disguised as a screenshot.
On the Two Plus Two Poker Forums, user MicahJ recently announced that more than $100,000 was stolen from his account at Lock Poker.
"The hacker, 'highgrind22,' had contacted MicahJ with a proposition to buy some of his funds on Lock Poker," Online Poker News reports. "He also sent a screenshot of his bank statement to verify that he in fact had the cash to buy the funds."
"Unfortunately, it looks as if that the screenshot he actually downloaded was an .exe file and most likely a keylogger program, which can be the kiss of death for any poker player with any type of sizable bankroll online," writes 4Flush's TJ Gill. "In fact, keyloggers have been responsible for the theft of hundreds of thousands of dollars in the online poker over the past few years, especially in the high stakes community."
"After gaining access to the valuable information, the crook started transferring money from MicahJ’s account," writes Softpedia's Eduard Kovacs. "Besides transferring around $54,000 (€43,000) to his own account, the hacker also played and lost around $90,000 (€72,000). The victim’s account was overtaken for three consecutive days, allowing the attacker to freely perform the malicious activities."
"Since the incident, MicahJ has been advised to use another computer to change all his passwords and to sweep his original PC clean," writes OnlinePoker.net's A. Mitchell. "Meanwhile, Lock Poker has said it was currently investigating the incident." | 2019-04-21T14:04:22Z | https://www.esecurityplanet.com/hackers/hacker-steals-more-than-100000-from-online-poker-player.html |

The Vikings couldn't finish against Miami and a poor defensive performance didn't leave much optimism for this squad. Daniel House analyzes the sloppy 37-35 loss from every angle.
The Vikings couldn't get the job done after starting strong and opening up with a 14-0 lead. This seems to be a reoccurring theme for this group and their inability to finish games is starting to become frustrating for the players and coaches. The Vikings defense couldn't cover, tackle, or pressure anyone today and they seemed to take significant step back. Miami's offense has struggled lately and they managed to allow 37 points, which is totally unacceptable. The Vikings have been battling injuries and we witnessed how poor our depth is in the second and third tier levels of the defense. The offense placed the Vikings in a position to win the game and you can't pin this loss on a group that scored 35 points.
Minnesota's secondary was allowing cushion and the wide receivers from Miami were just being more physical. The linebackers couldn't stop any of the dink and dunk style offense that the Dolphins were executing. Running backs and tight ends were shredding our linebackers and this was a tune that is familiar to many. Finally, the defensive line couldn't apply much pressure and Ryan Tannehill was able to step into the pocket. Penalties hurt as well and the undisciplined nature that was displayed on defense was totally unacceptable. The Vikings had control of this game, but their defense and a late special teams blunder were the death of them during the crushing 37-35 loss to the Dolphins.
There wasn't much more rookie quarterback Teddy Bridgewater could have done to help the Vikings win this game. He finished the day 19-for-26 with 259 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. His lone turnover came when a pass tipped off of the hands of Matt Asiata and into the arms of linebacker Derrick Shelby. Three of his touch passes were impressive, including a strike to Greg Jennings for a 21-yard touchdown in the second quarter. His completion percentage continues to spike and his ability to read the defense is very impressive. The Vikings offense scored 35 points and that is definitely a reasonable amount to win the game. Bridgewater is showing growth every week and you have to be encouraged that he wasn't the reason the Vikings lost today.
Matt Asiata carried the ball 16 times for 58 yards and two touchdowns. He continues to be the goal-line warrior and his ability to score inside the 5-yard line has been an impressive feat. Just DeMarco Murray and Marshawn Lynch have scored more touchdowns this season than Asiata. He was averaging 3.6 yards per carry and he continues to run with a ferocious head of steam. Nobody can just arm tackle him, or he will make you pay.
Greg Jennings ran impressive corner route to haul in a 21-yard touchdown pass from Teddy Bridgewater in the first half. He led all receivers with 56 yards and a touchdown, on just three receptions. His route running ability and knack for being able to rub off of picks are setting him up with success on crossing routes across the field. Jarius Wright added an 8-yard touchdown late in the game, where he gained brilliant separation off the line of scrimmage on a slant. He continues to be an athletic playmaker in the Vikings offense and is worthy of seeing more action. The Vikings wide receivers were able to make plays and Bridgewater was able to find them. Scoring 35 points should win most ballgames in this league, but the defense didn't get the job done today.
The Vikings offensive line used more action to pull guards in the running game and Joe Berger added some beautiful blocks in the second level. That was about all the Vikings offensive line could be proud of from today's game. Mike Harris was destroyed on two occasions by Cameron Wake and Bridgewater was taking a beating the entire game. The pressure also came from the interior and Vlad Ducasse was burned on a frequent basis. The sacks came at poor moments of the game and one in the fourth quarter set the Vikings in a poor situation. It ultimately forced a punt that later turned into a safety, which ultimately won the game for the Miami Dolphins. The Vikings offensive line needs to get the key pieces back next year in order to remedy this issue. On the bright side, Matt Kalil played relatively well and wasn't at the hands of any big mistakes.
Rhett Ellison hauled in a critical 40-yard pass from Teddy Bridgewater late in the game that set the Vikings up to to score a touchdown. He showed some smooth acceleration and movement after the catch to get the Vikings deep in Miami territory. In addition, Chase Ford was robbed from scoring a touchdown late in the first half. Bridgewater found Ford on a fade up the sideline for a 22-yard reception and it appeared his toe touched the pylon, but the replay officials upheld the call. The Vikings have been receiving solid production from Ford and Ellison when Kyle Rudolph has been sidelined for seven games this season.
The Vikings pass rush was only able to reach Ryan Tannehill twice, but one of them came at one of the most critical moments of the game. Tom Johnson reached Tannehill late in the game, pushing the Dolphins back. It didn't matter, because the Vikings defense later allowed a 3-yard touchdown score that tied the game at 35. The Vikings inability to pressure the quarterback allowed Ryan Tannehill to connect on the short and intermediate passes that plagued the Vikings linebackers and secondary. The Dolphins offensive line had been a sieve entering this game, but the Vikings were unable to cause any sort of havoc to keep the Dolphins offense honest.
The Vikings linebackers played their worst game of the season and injuries have struck this group late in the season. Gerald Hodges picked up an undisciplined penalty and was unable to handle Charles Clay during several moments of this game. Jasper Brinkley was struggling in pass coverage and he was trailing behind running backs on a frequent basis. Chad Greenway left the game with an injury and you could see the defense was really missing his leadership on the field. Anthony Barr was out and he was only other player who was making defensive calls this season. The linebackers and secondary was confused and out of alignment on a frequent basis. This was too reminiscent of how the Vikings linebackers performed last season and we can now witness that this group doesn't have the necessary depth to succeed at linebacker.
The Vikings secondary was shredded for 396 yards passing and they couldn't handle the physicality and athleticism of the Dolphins wide receivers. Mike Wallace added a pair of touchdowns and was able to outwork the Vikings secondary. It appeared this group was out of alignment and they couldn't get set from a pre-snap standpoint. The Dolphins were gaining separation and the short style passing approach Miami was displaying was difficult to handle. The secondary didn't allow the big play, but they simply allowed the Dolphins to slowly work their way up the field. It was done through short passes and check downs that also killed the Vikings when they lost to Chicago back in November.
Cullen Loeffler hasn't had his best season as the long snapper and you have to wonder if he will return when he hits free agency after the season concludes. His low snap resulted in Jeff Locke's punt being blocked, leading to a safety the clinched the win for Miami. You have to wonder if he hasn't been some of the issue to the Vikings struggles in the kicking game. I have noticed his performance declining lately and these types of lapses on special teams are unacceptable when you are trying to win contests. | 2019-04-21T17:05:48Z | http://www.mnvikingscorner.com/2014/12/notebook-vikings-revert-to-old-habits.html |

Rising junior Samantha Pérez is eager to get to the bottom of prevalent campus issues as the new Associated Student Government (ASG) vice president.
Serving as the senator for mental health and violence prevention this year, Pérez has experience dealing with sensitive issues.
Pérez is a Bay Area native, hailing from San Mateo, CA. She is double majoring in political science—with a pre-law emphasis—and English, in addition to a minor in philosophy.
Pérez also never wears matching socks because, according to her, it’s bad luck.
Pérez is keen on following through on promises she and newly-elected ASG president, Jack Herstam, made during their campaign.
These five platform ideas are categorized as campus climate, athletics, transparency, diversity and inclusion and mental health.
One issue Pérez and Herstam disagree on is Turning Point USA. Pérez continues to stand firm in her stance against it.
In light of the TPUSA decision, Pérez mentioned the lack of communication between members of ASG and the administration. ASG was given no prior information of the administration’s decision to allow TPUSA as an RSO.
Once ASG’s decision was overturned in regards to TPUSA, a resolution was written to ensure that if a situation similar to the TPUSA decision occurs in the future, the administration will be obligated to notify ASG prior to the general student body.
During campaign week, Pérez visited the Muslim Student Association and asked what ASG can do for that group of students on campus.
In response, a representative within ASG dedicated to interfaith was requested. The first tangible change that has been made is the creation of an interfaith senator position.
Pérez is also dedicated to improving on a working relationship with the Multicultural Center (MCC).
“I want to have a better relationship with the MCC where we’re elevating them and supporting them without trying to take over or take their ideas,” Pérez said.
When it comes down to it, Pérez continues to be committed to improving upon mental health issues on campus.
As the senator for mental health and violence prevention, Pérez’s most recent ASG initiative has been to improve the university’s consent training program.
Currently, the film” Can’t Thread a Moving Needle” is the university’s main program.
She highlighted that the use of satire in the film appeared to make fun of the subject, and the lack of LGBTQIA students featured was troubling.
Although Pérez faced a great deal of pushback on making this change, this upcoming school year will be the last time Santa Clara shows “Can’t Thread a Moving Needle.” This next year will be spent finding a new program that has more longevity and relevance.
As a senator this past year, she gained insight on the gaps Santa Clara still has in regards to mental health. Pérez thinks there is more Santa Clara can be doing for its students and ASG wants to help with that.

It was our second day in Vijayawada..
We started our day very late, as we had to meet a friend over there. Moreover the day was really hot and humid. As the sun started settling down by evening we started off to our destination for the day - Kanaka Durga Temple.
6. Kanaka Durga Temple This temple is located on Indrakeelaadri Hill along the banks of Krishna river which is at a distance of 2.5 Km from the Vijayawada bus station.
Direct bus (Durgamma Divyaratham) to the hillock where the temple is located is available from the Pandit Nehru Bus station. Alternatively one can reach the temple by walking up the hill which will take hardly 15-20 minutes.
It is said that this is the place where Goddess Durga(Hindu goddess) rested for a while after killing Mahishasura (Demon). Ofcourse, there are many legends associated with this temple..
Photography is not allowed inside the temple. One has to keep Camera or phone-with camera in the counters provided at the entrance of the temple.
View from the Indrakeelaadri hill where the Kanaka Durga temple is located..
Next place we wanted to visit was Prakasam Barrage.
Barrage is basically a dam. Prakasam barrage connects Krishna district to Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh. Its located very near to the Kanaka Durga temple. We went on foot to the barrage. It looked more like a bridge.
We didn't walk over the entire stretch of 1.2 KM, as our time got wasted because the road was blocked for some VVIP to pass through.
We got the privilege to walk through the empty roads of barrage as soon as the VIP had gone, which is otherwise filled with vehicles.
However, lack of proper fencing is making prakasam barrage a most sought after suicide point in Vijayawada.
Try out south Indian delicacies like Dosa, Idli and Andhra special Thali.
The street where we stayed in became lively with many varieties of street foods by evening.
As we were travelling mostly by shared autos and in bus, we couldn't visit some places due to the lack of time and tiredness. I will list down more places to see which we missed..
Rajiv Gandhi Park which is 1km distance from bus station.
And it was time for us to say goodbye to Vijayawada.
It's good to take a break from the usual routine of things what we do. Be it work or traveling or whatever. This time for me it was the place and the company I got to roam with.
It was worth an experience, setting out to a complete strange place with the company of a girl without knowing the regional language and much about the place. And Vijayawada didn't disappoint us. The place was beautiful and the people were compassionate. Moreover, all the visiting places are somewhat near and easily approachable by public transport. Hence the money spent for the whole trip was much lesser.
This trip for us was about knowing new things and feel it instead of hurrying to see every nook and corner..
Do you take break from what you do routinely ???
If so, whats your way and how you do it??
I'd love to hear from you in the comments..
Yeah.. Heard that the beach is beautiful.. But I think if we are relying on public transport, we need more time to club Suryalanka beach and amaravathy stupa along with Vijayawada.. Anyway, planning to visit Suryalanka beach soon.. :) Thankyou for the suggestion.. | 2019-04-24T14:15:17Z | http://www.lovetravelthings.com/2018/07/a-girls-backpacking-diary-to-vijayawada_27.html |
This tomb require a simple task to be done in order to receive a prize. You need to swing the wooden basket with wind that is blowing from the window in order to jump on a wooden ledge, that is on a wall, the basket get swung to.
The First step you need to do, is to close the window so that the wind can stop blowing inside, then wait for the lowest shutter to open up, and then quickly raise the wooden basket and jump on it. When it is on a full swing, jump on a wooden piece at a wall, and jump again to reach the wooden ledge. From here simply continue to a platform above the room, and proceed to tomb chest.
When the lowest shutter opens, quickly raise the wooden basket.
Jump on it fast, and wait to get swung to the piece of wood on the wall.
Double jump in order to reach this wooden ledge.
From there continue to left up to the balcony. | 2019-04-25T10:36:20Z | https://www.gosunoob.com/tomb-raider/tomb-raider-maps/hall-of-ascension/ |

PowerPoint can be an effective tool in making a presentation, but only if used properly.
Presenters, though, often forget that audiences are “there to see you, not your slides,” says Richard Harrington, a digital video expert. I recently took his online course, PowerPoint: From Outline to Presentation through Lynda.com.
“Effective speaker support is the goal,” he says.
The key to a successful presentation is to organize it through an outline. Then gather the images, videos and links, finally creating the presentation.
You can build your outline in a Word document or using the outline feature in PowerPoint. Either way, you are determining the critical elements of your presentation.
Once you have your outline, determine what visual elements you can use to illustrate your points. These elements also will serve as triggers when you are speaking. PowePoint’s job is to not be your presentation but rather to support you as you speak.
Once you have everything prepared, be sure to practice. You want to check the timing to stay within your allotted time. Click through the slides and each item on the slides to ensure that everything is working. Also check for spelling errors.
Now you are ready to give a successful presentation. Good luck! | 2019-04-20T10:38:16Z | https://cynthiapricecommunique.com/2014/01/09/using-powerpoint-to-support-your-presentation/ |

-- Julia Morgan (the first female architect licensed in California, 1892).
I agree with Julia Morgan because many of the buildings look like art work.
I like that saying,Samuel butler.
I agree with Julia Morgan because someone will say they made it but the Building made it's self.
I agree with Samuel Butler because a building shows the architects work is them putting themself into their work.
I agree with Julia Morgan the buildings look like art work.
i think that Samuel Butler is right because it is always a portrait of yourself because you made it so it is a part of your past and is part of your own life and mater and dark mater and stuff!!!!
I agree with Julia Morgan because buildings don't always go the way you want them to be built.
I agree with Samuel Butler because his sentence makes sense to me.
Cole, be more specific, give detail!
I think samuel butler is right because a picture of you should have you in it not a building and people are more inportant.
I agree with Julia Morgan because of my experience as an artist. I like to work with clay and when I finish something I just want people to notice it rather than telling them about it.
I agree with Julia Morgan because you can't talk until you see. Details might be in the architecture that need best describing. For architecture uses own words as you go across the building you have so many feelings than saying.
I don't agree with Samuel because you don't always make a portrait of yourself but the building speak through your body like your home does to you.
I agree more with Samuel Butler what I think his quote means is when you make things it should reflect you and/or your personality that is what I think he means by "Every mans work weather it be literature or music or pictures or architecture or anything else, is always a portrait of himself."
I agree whith Julia Morgan because, A building is not created It's FOUND a building is art that found it's way into people's hands. People say "Hey I created that house" but, no the house created THEM!!!!
I think Julia Morgan is right because architecture was NOOOOOOT made by architects. Architecture made civilization AND THEM!!!!!
I am more like Julia Morgan because all buildings shall speak for them selves.
i am more like Julia Morgan because when i see a building i think building speak to you .
I agree with Julia the buildings do speak for there self but I also agree with Samuel because you can make a building you so I agree with both people.
They have nice hats. But they are both nuts because buildings can't speak for themselves.
I am with both of them because, sometimes i will want to act totally different than i am, and so if i built it on how i was when i was different then the building would have to speak for itself. When acting like myself and/if i built a house , it would be just like me / a portrait of myself.
I believe that Ms. Morgan is correct because architecture is like art. It is truly made by something within us. Structure-building is its own kind of art, though it is also useful for purposes other than visual beauty, it is truly a work made of something quite divine, an art of its kind. Now THAT'S an answer!
You're nickname is not true!
I agree with Julia Morgan because it looks like it is art.
They are both right they are just different and unusual.
I agree with julia morgan because the bildings do the most work to help make the picture stand out.
I agree with Samuel Butler because the building you make was created by you. It was your idea so you should speak for yourself and you get to explain how you share it.
I'm more like both because buildings are supposed to give shelter (which is what Philip said) and you cant make a building without the work (which is what Emile said). | 2019-04-25T03:44:26Z | http://rsd2-alert-durden.weebly.com/alert-web-log-2017-2018/proverbs-speaking-of-architecture |

The day started with a healthy breakfast and then OCB class. We were lucky to have class at the local hotel in Nelson’s Dockyard, which is one of the historical buildings. We sat around, drank coffee, while learning about intertidal ecology. After class we dinghied over to a nearby beach where we took a short and, when compared to some of the other hikes we have done, fairly easy walk. We hiked to the other side of the Bay to enjoy the view. We could see the Pillars of Hercules from the top of the cliffs, and also take a look at some of the intertidal communities we had talked about in class. After the hike we had lunch and gathered at the dock, right outside of the boat. We were surprised by our instructors when they told us we were about to partake in SeaMester’s biannual Amazing Race. The race paired us up in even teams of two. We were to run and find places around the Dockyard with the help of hints that we found along the path. It even involved diving at some point, to find one of the clues, which included using our knowledge from our Navigation Dive. After thatmore members of our creware officiallycertified as PADI Advanced Divers! Jenny and I won the race (no surprise (-; ) and we won ourselves a big bag of candy. After the race we got ready for a special dinner at a local beach. We had a great time barbecuing tasty burgers and hotdogs. Overall, one of the best days of the trip. | 2019-04-21T22:45:04Z | https://www.seamester.com/trip-logs/seamesters-amazing-race/ |
Spartan Total Warrior best settings?
Just want to know the best recommended settings for the game. Thanks for any help!
System Type- 64-bit operating system, x64 based process.
Non-default settings are, all speed hacks are on and have been using shade booster to try to get rid of the intense brightness with little success, tried using F9 but that slows the game down considerably.
Have played The Thing, Final Fantasy VII, X and XII with little problem. Just wanted to know what settings other people use to play this game without intense brightness or lag.
are you aware it'll be impossible to play it without lag on this machine ?
The game sound works great, as does the video for the most part, only problem is the brightness to fix it I push F9 after realizing that lags me I disable it and I then mess with the shade booster which doesn't effect the speed but I just can't set it correctly. I realize i'm not really explaining this correctly and I apologize. | 2019-04-22T00:31:01Z | https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Spartan-Total-Warrior-best-settings |

Truly a legacy...This family holds many years of experience throughout the generations!
Great people, great product, and great craftsmanship. I highly recommend them!
It’s like Christmas morning! I love my building!
Legacy built a structure for my church in Owasso. The craftsmanship is excellent and they worked with us and the weather to get the build done correctly. We shopped around comparing specs and chose Legacy as the most knowledgeable and personable company around.
Just had a 30x30x18 insulated and concrete floor! These guys did unbelievable! Shop was complete in 4 days, WOW! Quality, Fast, and GREAT customer service!!! They took time to explain everything and answer lots of questions. I'm sure we will be using Lagacy again!
Thank you Legacy Barn Company for a great job. I'm very satisfied with your work. I love my new barn, can't get in it fast enough.
Great company!! Builds one of the very best built barns I've ever seen. Quick, professional and very classy people! Thanks for my barn! It's exactly what we wanted! Would recommend to anyone! And will!
This barn is a dream come true for our family and we couldn't be happier with our whole experience! From the very beginning Shawna was a great help and very informative and always kept lines of communication open. Robert and his crew were great guys, very friendly and thoroughly professional. This is easily the best barn I've seen, I would highly recommend Legacy Barn to anyone looking to build their dream! You have no idea the blessing this barn is going to be for my family. We do not live in a very good part of town and this barn is our first step in getting our family to a safer place. Thank you for all your help. Thanks for everything!!
They are very nice people and do a great job staying in contact with you and I'd recommend them to anybody. Did a very good job on 40x60 in Kansas for me and looks great couldn't be happier and if I ever had another put up I'd go with them.
My father and I were extremely impressed with the professional staff and amazed at the speed of building our barn. My father is an engineer and was impressed with the knowledge and construction quality the members of this company had. This barn has been professionally designed and meets well above any building standard. It is built to last and It is the most well built barn we have seen and is by far the best. From the very first step of the blue print they give you it is simple to design a pad and plan. I had multiple bids and they were very competitive in prices and by far the most professional. I would recommend this company over any in the nation we are lucky to have such an amazing barn company in Eastern Oklahoma. We will use them again in the future.
Our new barn/shop is stunning and receives compliments every day. Shawna, Matthew, and their company is top notch. Thank you from Garrett Farms, Oronogo MO.
We would recommend Legacy to anybody that wants to build a barn! These are amazing people, very professional & helpful, an amazing construction crew, who worked very hard while they were constructing our barn. We absolutely LOVE our beautiful barn! Thank you Legacy!!!
I can not express how pleased I am with my new barn from Legacy. Matthew was very easy to work with and made the whole process very smooth. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a barn. Thank You guys!!!!!

Classical acupuncture is a vast body of ancient knowledge collected and complied over many centuries by the Chinese. It is a system of diagnosing and treating disease using fine needles inserted into specific points on the body. The practice dates back thousands of years.
The basis for a classical understanding of acupuncture’s effects is Taoism, an ancient philosophy which has as its first principle the concept of Yin and Yang through the body. Classical acupuncturists insert needles into acupuncture points to either increase or decrease the amount of energy in a given organ system, in order to balance Yin and Yang. Resorting Yin and Yang restores health and vitality of the body.
Acutherapy (needle, electro, or pressure therapy applied to traditional acupuncture points or nerve points) is based on “chi,” an unseen energy force that flows throughout the body in a series of channels. “Chi” is considered the vital life force. “Chi” keeps the blood circulating, fighting disease, warms the body and regulate the functioning of organs. All channels are paired, with each Yin channel coupled with a Yang channel.
Although not well understood in the West, Eastern acutherapy does have a place in conventional medicine due to its success with many chronic lifestyle disorders which often respond poorly to drugs and surgery. There is almost complete lack of adverse side effects and complications.
This unique system incorporates the wisdom of ancient philosophies with a modern electro-therapy technology. This non-invasive treatment is safe, simple, effective and gentle. Micro-current stimulation, a mild millionth of an ampere current is applied to acupuncture points. This provides immediate pain relief, decrease muscle tonicity, and accelerate tissue repair for any form of musculoskeletal disorder. Treatment sessions are approximately ½ hour. This treatment is highly recommended for children who require acupuncture or those who belief in acupuncture principal but afraid of needles. Research proves that micro-current increase ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) resulting in improved cell metabolism, injury repair and soft tissue cell regeneration (Chege et al.1982). | 2019-04-19T20:47:49Z | http://www.uniquerehab.com/services/acupuncture |
This is interesting! Has music helped you get closer to your kids?
If you’re looking for another reason to blast your favorite tunes, a new study has shown that parents who listen to music with their kids have better relationships with them as they enter young adulthood.
Conducted by researchers at the University of Arizona and published in the Journal of Family Communication, the study distinguishes between two forms of shared musical activity: structured and casual. Structured musical activity included playing instruments together, while casual musical activity included listening to music or going to a concert together.
Both types of interaction were associated with better parent-child relationships when those children reached young adulthood. The effects appeared to be more pronounced when experiences happened during children’s adolescence.
Two factors that appear to make music a bonding force are coordination and empathy. For example, by singing and dancing together, kids and parents learn to synchronize with each other. Parents and kids may have more empathy for each other when they compromise on a radio station during car trips, and a shared experience of emotions expressed in a song can also deepen a parent-child bond.
While this study showed that it’s important to give your teens’ music a try for the sake of getting closer to them, other research has shown that even babies and their parents can benefit from shared musical experiences. A 2014 study showed that babies who were bounced in sync to a musical beat were more likely to cooperate with adults than those who weren’t bounced at all or were bounced out of sync.
As someone who grew up listening to all my parents’ favorite music and now considers my mom and dad my best concert buddies, I can certainly say that music has been a bonding force in my relationship with them.
What do you think? Has music helped you get closer to your kids?

I grew up in a household where both my parents worked out of the home. This is all I knew, but as a child, I didn’t like it. My mom would come home and had to hurry to get dinner on the table and there was no time for her to check my homework or even play with me.
It’s sad when I think about it. I love my mom and I know both my parents had to work to support me and my sister. So, when I was pregnant, I figured I had to go back to work when my maternity ended. It’s just what you do.
But, my husband said, you only live once!
He knew how much I hated my parents working long hours and coming home barely talking to me. He didn’t want that for his family. He knew years before we became a family that he wanted a different life for us.
He said let’s find a way for you to stay home if you want. Now, don’t get me wrong. I know for a lot of people, this isn’t something that everyone can do.
I honestly thought there was no way we could live on one household income.
But, with our savings and cutting back on a lot of extra things like – Starbucks coffee every morning, going to the movies once a week, eating out, shopping for new clothes – was the only way to be on one income.
We saved more, found ways to stretch our dollar and now I’m able to stay home. And I started a blog too!
I’m hoping Smart Mom Ideas is a place for new moms that need help with parenting, blogging, organizing and more. I have some great tips to share with all of you moms!
I’m so grateful that my husband encouraged me to stay home. I know this is the best life for my family. Every day I can set my day to cook, keep the house clean and focus on my family.
And with this blog, I’m hoping to earn a bit of money. I’m learning about a lot of different ways to make money and I’m pretty sure I’ll focus on affiliate marketing at first. It seems to be the easiest way to earn an income fast! I also want to learn more about blogging and maybe take some courses.
If you’re reading this and you want to stay home with your little one, the biggest thing that we were spending was on FOOD.
We could easily spend $300 or more a WEEK! on food.
But, once we sat down and planned our meals, our grocery bill drastically cut in half.
That was the one thing that totally helped us. We spent some time planning what we would eat in the week and not change it. We also set some days like Wednesday was Spaghetti night and Sunday was chicken night. We would just change up the side dishes.
Those little trips add up. Then you might eat out for lunch two times that week. There goes another $50.
Just making a budget for your food will help you realize that you can cut your expenses easily! And that’s how I can stay home!
Let me know if you stay home and tell me your #1 money-saving tip that allows you to stay home!
Hi! I’m not a stay-at-home mom. But, I want to be soon. Everything you mentioned is true. Eating out takes your expenses to an all time high. This is another reminder for what I already knew what to do. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks so much for commenting on my new blog! I’m so excited and elated! Thanks so much. Good luck on your journey to becoming a SAHM! | 2019-04-23T23:56:36Z | https://www.smartmomideas.com/why-stay-at-home-mom/ |
Recession forced across-the-board spending in many states, hitting education and hiring.
The effects of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression are forcing changes on state governments and the U.S. economy that could linger for decades.
By one Federal Reserve estimate, the country lost almost an entire year's worth of economic activity – nearly $14 trillion – during the recession from 2007 to 2009.
The deep and persistent losses of the recession forced states to make broad cuts in spending and public workforces. For businesses, the recession led to changes in expansion plans and worker compensation. And for individual Americans, it has meant a future postponed, as fewer buy houses and start families.
"In the aftermath of [previous] recessions there were strong recoveries. That is not true this time around," said Gary Burtless, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. "This is more like the pace getting out of the Great Depression."
For years, housing served as the backbone of economic growth and as an investment opportunity that propelled generations of Americans into the middle class. But the financial crisis burst the housing bubble and devastated the real estate market, leaving millions facing foreclosure, millions more underwater, and generally stripping Americans of years' worth of accumulated wealth.
Anthony B. Sanders, a professor of real estate finance at George Mason University, said even the nascent housing recovery can't escape the effects of the recession.
Those effects are clear in homeownership rates, which continue to decline. In the second quarter of this year, the U.S. homeownership rate was 65.1%, according to Census Bureau data, the lowest since 1995. In the mid-2000s, it topped 69%, capping a steady pace of growth that began after the early 1990s recession.
Reversing that will be a challenge, in part because credit has tightened and lending rules have been toughened in an effort to avoid the mistakes that inflated the housing bubble in the first place.
"Credit expanded, and now contracted, and it's going to be tight like this as far as the eye can see," Sanders said. "We so destroyed so many households when the bubble burst, there's just not the groundswell to fill the demand again."
Some are skeptical that the tight credit market and new efforts to regulate the financial markets, like the Dodd-Frank law, will prove lasting. Americans have often responded with calls for regulation after financial sector-driven crises and accusations of mismanagement, according to Brookings' Burtless.
"But eventually, those fires cool down," he said. "It's not as though this memory of what can go wrong sticks with us very long."
That can be seen in the intense efforts to water down Dodd-Frank's regulations, Burtless said. Federal regulators have already made moves to relax requirements for some potential homeowners who were victims of the recent housing crisis.
Even those steps and an unlikely return to easy credit might not fuel a full housing recovery without economic growth to back it up. As Sanders, referring to the growth in low-wage and part-time employment, put it: "At those wages, it's tough to scramble together down payments and mortgages."
Turmoil in the housing market has already reshaped the makeup of households nationwide. Homeownership rates among people with children under 18 fell sharply during the recession, declining 15% between 2005 and 2011, according to Census Bureau data.
In some states it was far worse. For Michigan, the decline in homeownership was 23%, and in Arizona and California it was 22%.
Lackluster job growth has outlived the downturn. A study by the Economic Policy Institute showed wages for all workers, when adjusted for inflation, grew just 1.5% between 2000 and 2007. But the last five years wiped out even those modest gains—the study found wages declined for the bottom 70% of all workers since the recession began.
However, some areas have seen manufacturing jobs climb back from recessionary lows, and the energy sector has been a boon for some Midwestern states.
One hopeful sign for workers is the shift away from manufacturing growth in the typically low-wage South back toward the Rust Belt states, reversing a movement that was taking hold before the downturn. That trend is documented in a 2012 report from the Brookings Institution, "Locating American Manufacturing: Trends in the Geography of Production."
From 2000 to 2010, both the Midwest and South lost manufacturing jobs at about the national rate of 34%. But the Midwest has seen nearly half of all manufacturing jobs gained since 2010, almost double the increase in the South. For Michigan, the growth was 19%; in Indiana, 12%.
Even with that growth, there are caveats. Autoworker unions have ceded ground with companies on wages and benefits, for example, allowing new hires to work for lower pay and fewer benefits than those who've held their jobs longer.
Unemployment remains stubbornly high in some states, and the jobs created have leaned heavily toward part-time and low-pay work. A study from the San Francisco Federal Reserve found the proportion of U.S. jobs that are part-time is high, as many of the jobs lost during the recession have not returned.
The recession forced states to cut spending across the board, a reversal from a general trend of 1.6% growth each year, according to the National Association of State Budget Officers. States cut spending by 3.8% in fiscal year 2009 and by another 5.7% in fiscal 2010, the first such consecutive declines since the organization began tracking spending in 1979.
As NASBO found, the situation forced states to cut areas "often considered politically sacrosanct," such as education, public assistance programs and transportation. It remains to be seen whether the losses will ever be recouped.
Education comprises a significant portion of state budgets. In the 2012-2013 school year, for example, 35 states had K-12 funding that was below pre-recession levels when adjusted for inflation, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP), a left-leaning think tank. Some states reeled from spending cuts% of almost 22% compared to 2008.
Higher education funds fell too. Nationally, states cut spending by more than 28% per college student from 2008 to 2013 when adjusted for inflation, according to the center. Arizona's reductions topped 50%; 36 states cut by more than 20%. Only two states, Wyoming and North Dakota, didn't reduce higher education funding.
Those cuts had different consequences for students. In colleges, it meant skyrocketing tuition, while in K-12, it often meant cuts to programs such as summer and after-school programs, along with bigger classes sizes. Some states cut enrollment for pre-K as well.
Michael Leachman, director of state fiscal research at CBPP, said both had the effect of stripping state education systems that are vital in preparing students and building feeders to the economy.
"These are very deep and concerning cuts at a time when it's recognized having a more educated workforce is crucial to the country's future," he said.
The reductions also significantly shrunk public workforces. State and local cuts to public employees outlived the worst of the layoffs in the private sector.
State and local governments have shed 681,000 jobs since their peak in August 2008, by far the largest drop of any recession in the past half century, according to the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government.
State and local government wages grew by 1.1% in 2012, compared to 1.7% growth in the private sector, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Many states embraced significant labor changes, such as scaled back health and retirement plans along with pay freezes, salary cuts and furlough days.
The unemployment stampede crushed unemployment insurance funds. Jobless claims grew from an average of 321,000 per week in 2007 to almost 670,000 at the peak in March 2009.
States' unemployment insurance trust funds were forced to borrow nearly $50 billion from the federal government to cover costs.
Many states have repaid those debts, but 17 still owe the federal government almost $20 billion and others have debt on the private market. Even those with less or no debt are still reeling: Some have razor-thin balances even today (Rhode Island's is just over $500,000 with more than $162 million in debt).
Designed to ebb and flow with unemployment, the trust funds are meant to be flush during good times and drawn upon during downturns. Because of poor accounting and tax cuts, many states were unprepared for the recession and were unable to cover costs.
The debt has forced some states to cut jobless benefits to levels not seen since 1935 Social Security Act created the program. It could mean unemployment insurance, the safety net's first line of defense against joblessness, may be missing in action when the next crisis hits.

Perhaps Rhodes, and those that ran in his circles, would actually be proud of the contemporary South African ruling class. The ruling class in Rhodes’ day set up the system whereby capitalism in South Africa became defined and based on extremely cheap black labour. To create a source of cheap black labour, Rhodes and the rest of the ruling class sent working class soldiers – in the name of nationalism - to wage wars against the remaining independent black societies across southern Africa. Indeed, Rhodes personally financed the invasion of what now is known as Zimbabwe in order to secure a pool of cheap labour, but also the resources of the area. To keep all of this in place, the black population was racially oppressed in southern Africa. At the same time, to prevent the working class from uniting, racial, ethnic and nationalist tensions were stoked up by the ruling class. Black workers on the mines, drawn from right across southern Africa after conquest, were separated from one another on ethnic lines and encouraged to attack one another on the mines after hours. Likewise, if black workers went on strike, white workers were encouraged to scab and attack them and vice versa. | 2019-04-20T22:40:22Z | http://anarkismo.net/article/28137&user_frontpage=53&save_prefs=true |
I had the honor of being able to create natural rainbows for the campers and staff at Camp Quality Camps in Arkansas and Kansas City. The campers were amazing and the devotion of the volunteers was beyond anything I could say in words. My life has been changed forever. I look forward to working with other people like the ones I met at these camps.
The local Fire Departments provided Fire and water trucks and unbridled enthusiasm.
The campers and the staff were able to walk through and play in a rainbow. Yes they all visited the end of the rainbow and they can tell you there is no pot of gold there. The real pot of gold: The campers were at Camp Quality for a week with some wonderful caring and enthusiastic people. | 2019-04-26T02:36:11Z | http://www.rainbowmaker.us/events/Health/qualmis.php |

The human drama of survival in closed spaces, the utter boredom and brief moments of joy, the gathered crowd -- why, there's nothing like the minute-to-minute Twitter updates of my wife's jury duty.
Any moment now the doors of the metal lift will open and she'll be sprung into the open air of Queens County and Camp Jamaica. I hope there's no mistress waiting for her at the Sutphin Ave. subway stop.

Chase and cult favorite Chuck were originally picked up for a full season in October, the day after NBC renewed its other first-year series Law & Order: Los Angeles, Outsourced and The Event. Chase‘s premier brought 7.3 million viewers and a 2.5 rating in the adults 18-49 demo, but viewership and ratings have since fallen. The most recent episode only drew 6 million viewers and a 1.6 18-49 rating.
Let’s hope Chase draws in more viewers soon, or a cancellation will most like soon happen. Do you watch Chase? If not, why? Too many show commitments already? Not your cup of tea? Weigh in! | 2019-04-19T23:27:13Z | https://www.fanbolt.com/2616/nbc-cuts-episodes-from-chase-order/ |
LIFTEUROP: A new purchasing policy that includes CSR!
Economic and social changes are causing many companies to integrate CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) into their practices. LIFTEUROP, the Luxembourg-based manufacturer of lifting equipment and accessories, has embraced this approach since 2011. But the company expects the same from its suppliers! At the start of 2019, LIFTEUROP is unveiling its new purchasing policy—a responsible purchasing policy.
LIFTEUROP designs and develops slings, lifting beams, clamps and other high-quality lifting accessories that ensure the protection of property and people. That is why it is important to choose the right suppliers. “First and foremost, we work with permanent suppliers! These are long-term collaborations. But our suppliers must have social practices that are consistent with our own. The ALIPA Group buys responsibly and expects that its suppliers share the same values of respect for the environment and sustainability,” states Julien Dethier, buyer.
As a consequence, LIFTEUROP can claim to be a socially responsible company. The CSR approach is going to be increasingly important in business relationships. Today, a company using a CSR approach has a better chance of securing a contract than an ordinary company. | 2019-04-24T10:50:43Z | https://www.lifteurop.com/actuality/lifteurop-a-new-purchasing-policy-that-includes-csr |

Community cats that who are not socialized and will not likely be adoptable through conventional shelter or rescue systems are trapped, spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and eartipped (the universal method of identifying a neutered and vaccinated community cat in TNR programs), and then returned to their outdoor home.
Trap-Neuter-Return, also known as TNR, is viewed by many as a humane and effective alternative to euthanasia for cats that who would not be considered adoptable by standard criteria due to their lack of socialization. TNR is said to contribute to a stable social community or colony of cats who are typically cared for (fed, provided rudimentary outdoor shelter) by volunteers in the community. Some experts argue that TNR projects reduce the number of Community Cats over time, while others argue that, at best, the population stabilizes over time.
Citizens who object to Community Cats because of property damage, nuisance behaviors, and impact on the environment/wildlife argue that these problems will not improve as cats are still living in the community. Others argue that if colonies of spayed/neutered cats are carefully managed by volunteer colony caretakers that these impacts in the community can be minimized. | 2019-04-21T15:03:50Z | http://www.guelphcats.org/strategies/trap-neuter-return-tnr |

Equilibrium is about wrestling with an unanswerable question. This interrogation becomes the impetus for the bi-racial speaker in the poems, confronting the opposing forces inside and outside of her body through history, place, faith, family, and systematic racism. This question, “What is left whispering in us once we have stopped trying to become the other,” is at the seam of every poem.
The poem that galvanized the collection for me was “Prometheia Remixed” as it was the newest edition to the chapbook. I wrote it around the same time I drafted my manuscript, and I felt like it captured the essence of the entire collection. I guess in some sense, it may be odd to end a chapbook with an origin story, but the preceding poems become a cipher, a series of steps that lead up to the final decryption à la “91 Revere Street” in Robert Lowell’s Life Studies, or at least that was my hope, ha! That poem took the longest to revise. I think I was sending Ross White edits every week up until press day, at some point I had to abandon the poem, untie the hog, and let it run free from my overthinking and constant tinkering. Sometimes you can scrub the soul out of a poem with too much revision.
I respectfully defer to Kwame Dawes here. He said, “I do the things that need to be done when they need to be done. Writing is a constant.” I don’t have a set writing practice. I wasn’t raised with routine—my single mother was always working, and being an only child I was left at home without supervision. However, that lack of structure morphed into a sense of freedom, so when a poem comes—I chase it. I chase it no matter where I am, often times repeating the same line or lines over and over again until I can jot it down. I tried to be a more disciplined writer, but I’ve (realized/come to accept that) my “set” writing times just look a little different. I make sporadic work for me. The poems come when they come, so if it’s the middle of night then I wake up and chase it. If it’s on the road, I pull over.
I was up late one night mindlessly scrolling through Facebook and a fellow poet, Phillip B. Williams, posted this link, 10 Female Artists of Color on the Rise. Amy Sherald’s stunning painting popped up and I froze. I said out loud, “This is the cover of my chapbook!” I knew it was fate, because when I noticed that the title of her painting was Equilibrium—I lost it. I took this as a sign and began pursuing her. The more I found out about her and her work, the more excited I became at the possibility of collaboration. So much of what she is trying to accomplish in her visual art is what I am trying to do on the page by subverting and challenging the construction of race via racialized bodies. The painting captured my book completely—the black woman fixed between two poles, two opposing forces of strength and burden, her gaze, the intensity of color and negative space. It was like BOOM—yes, yes, yes! I sent it to my publisher, Ross White, and he loved it as well. I feel extremely blessed and happy that I was able to contribute to the cover. Also, Victoria Lynne McCoy did such a stunning job with the graphic design!
What do you wish you had known before submitting a chapbook?
I am the new Poetry Editor for Nashville Review—so I’m working my way through slush at the moment. I’m also revising and drafting new poems for my first full-length collection. Plus, I’m teaching my first undergraduate Beginning Poetry Workshop at Vanderbilt University this fall as well as finishing up my the second year of my MFA.
Read everything, and not just the people you love.
Listen to poetry podcasts (Two of my favorites: Poetry Magazine & All Up In Your Ears).
Find and plug into your local literary community or create your own!
You don’t have to attend an MFA to be a writer. I created my own D.I.Y. MFA program years before I attended Vanderbilt. I went to open-mic nights, created a workshop with my poetry friends, went to the library and checked out poetry books, created my own reading lists for myself.
Learn to process rejection and failure—it’s a part of the process. Let it make you better, not bitter.
If you can, attend writing conferences and workshops.
Hustle and grind on repeat. (Redefine what success looks like for you/Have a clear vision for what success looks like for you, but be flexible and prepared to redefine it as you go).
Find a mantra for the days of doubt.
If you’re scared, just do it scared.
Find people you trust that will tell you the truth. Find people that love your work, but not all of it.
Don’t be afraid of big tasks.
Wait a couple of weeks before you read your workshop comments—a little time and distance does wonders.
I don’t listen to music often when I write. I prefer silence or light café chatter, though sometimes I will write with jazz or classical in the background—nothing with lyrics, unless it’s a song I’m so familiar with I’m able to tune out.
Blood Dazzler by Patricia Smith and Please by Jericho Brown.
Why the chapbook? What made it the right format for your work?
I had twenty poems that were in conversation that were ready to go.
Improv/ SNL/ comedy. I use to be in a troupe for a couple of years in my early twenties. Improvisation incorporates so much of what I love about creative work by getting out of your head and allowing yourself to play and free-associate. It’s incredibly freeing.
I started “lying.” I use to be beholden to this idea to always tell the strict, factual truth no matter what, but I would get stuck trying to remember how it happened and that’s not the point. I have to remind myself that emotional truth can be truer than the factual-truth.
Bi-racial people with daddy issues, ha! Just kidding. I hope the chapbook creates a space for all people to find a world within my world.
“The Frequency of Goodnight,” because every word of it is true and about my mother. I read an interview from Eduardo C. Corral about writing “To Robert Hayden,” as a way to give him a gift in poem that he couldn’t posses in his real life. Similarly, my poem is way for me to (enact a type of grace for my mother, something I wasn’t able to do as a child. Every time I read that poem I get to take care of my mom, tuck her in, like she did for me.
Documentaries, Roget’s Thesaurus, NPR, and “bougie” cocktail menus.

A Whangārei woman is urging motorists to travel with their doors locked after a man tried to climb into her car as she drove home from a late night shift.
Krystal Marsh, 25, has spoken out after the scary incident early yesterday.
"I just finished work and was at the lights on Hatea Dr heading towards Nixon St and someone tried to jump in my car. Not only did they try the front door they also tried the back door too," Marsh recalled.
At the time Marsh was on her own and had no cellphone with her. She drove to her Whau Valley home and told her partner about the incident. He advised her to call the police who immediately dispatched officers to search the area.
Marsh said the man, who was on his own, was dressed in a hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans and was about 176cm in height.
"I ran a red light," she said.
Fortunately, her doors were locked.
The last thing she saw of the man was him running off down Mill Rd towards the central city. Police were unable to track him down.
She posted on a popular Facebook page telling people of her experience in the hope she could spread the safety message to lock your doors while driving.
It had generated a number of comments, with some people saying they had also had similar experiences.
Kahui Neho commented: "I wonder if that was the same person that did the same to me at the Kensington lights a couple weeks back, wanting to go to Kamo."
Trinny Tokerau had some good safety advice of her own: "Make lots of noise. Hit the horn hard. You will attract people's attention with noise."
Acting area prevention manager for Whangarei and Kaipara, Sergeant James Calvert, said while some cars automatically locked when being driven, manually locking car doors was a sensible and easy precaution to take.
He also said anyone driving at night should have a phone so help could be called quickly.
"The sooner you call the police the better," he said.
"If you are in a position to make some noise and attract the attention of someone they could call for help. In my experience people who are committing crimes don't like attention being drawn to them." | 2019-04-26T02:07:59Z | https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12157523&ref=rss |
The climate of insecurity in Guatemala is forcing women to arm themselves to protect themselves and their families, the Central American nation’s state newspaper, Diario de Centroamerica, reported Monday.
The official newspaper said an increasing number of women of different professions are acquiring weapons and registering them with Guatemala’s Arms and Munitions Control Office.
Some 9,200 weapons have been registered at that agency in the name of women, representing 4 percent of the total weapons registered.
DIGECAM Assistant Director Guillermo Mejía said it is uncommon for women to visit the weapons regulatory agency. However, they are increasingly showing more interest in carrying a firearm for self-defense.
What is motivating women to arm themselves, the official told the Diario, is the need to feel more secure and protected, because many of the women own businesses and have been the victims of crime.
Many of the female gun owners have received training on how to fire their weapons and others have been shown how to do so by their husbands or sons, Mejía said.
Activist Rosario Escobedo, of the women’s organization Sector de Mujeres, said she feels that violence will not be done away with by arming oneself and it is the duty of the authorities to provide security for the public. | 2019-04-24T13:05:13Z | https://ticotimes.net/2010/02/05/guatemalan-women-take-up-arms-amid-climate-of-insecurity |
1. Is his uncle Vic an arsonist, a drug dealer or both?
2. Why does Willow Flores want to hang out with him?
3. Will he make his junior high school basketball team?
4. Why won’t his childhood asthma go away?
5. Who is his father?
Little does thirteen-year-old Hudson know that the answers will shake him right down to his core.
Cut from AAA hockey last season, seventh-grader Hudson Pickle needs to make the basketball team this year. But, after having an asthma attack at the first tryout, his chances aren’t looking good. His former best friend, Trevor, is also trying out. But he won’t even speak to Hudson since Hudson had all but ignored him while concentrating on hockey. And as if that wasn’t bad enough, now his uncle Vic — who’s been staying with him and his mom since a suspicious fire at his house —has been diagnosed with a genetic respiratory illness. Could this mean Hudson has something worse than asthma? And while this DNA mystery is being unraveled, will the truth about what happened to his father finally be revealed as well?
Yolanda Ridge’s compelling coming-of-age novel for middle-graders combines humor, action and mystery — with a dose of genetic science to keep things interesting. It offers a rich reading experience with complex characters and a multilayered story. Thoughtful, authentic and likeable Hudson will inspire readers with the grit and perseverance he relies on to get through his difficulties, and the self-deprecating wit he uses to manage middle-school social dynamics, evolving friendships and a changing family structure. There are also multiple mysteries running throughout the story — involving Hudson’s father, his uncle and his own health — that are sure to keep the pages turning.

Perkins has been producing diesel engines since 1932. Diesel engines before Perkins were slow and heavy "workhorse" engines. In terms of performance, diesel engine were no match for petrol engines and were not seen as viable primary motive power. When Perkins released their first high speed diesel engine, there was finally a challenge to the petrol power plant. Perkins was sold to Massey-Ferguson in 1959 and continued to refine and expand their diesel range. With the acquisition of Rolls-Royce Diesels in the 1980's, the Perkins brand gained further technologies and expertise to pass onto its customers. Perkins is now owned by Caterpillar and continues to expand into new markets across the world.
The marine division of Perkins in partnership with Sabre combine over 75 years worth of diesel knowledge. This depth of knowledge and expertise has lead to the production of the most reliable and customer centred engine designs in the marine market. Perkins has become a first choice option for powerboats, yachts, fishermen and pilot boats.
The build quality and reliability of Perkins engines means that many vessels are still using engines that are 20+ years old. With regular checks and maintenance, a Perkins engine can be relied on for loyal service. ASAP Supplies holds stock of popular spares for the 3152, 4107 / 4108, M35 and Prima engines among others. | 2019-04-24T23:53:47Z | https://www.asap-supplies.com/us/brands/perkins |

We had another episode of America’s Got Talent last night that brought all kinds of people onto the stage. Singers, gymnasts, acrobatic cats and plenty of dancing.
The UDI Dance group once again took the stage. The group out of Siberian is known for their glow-in-the-dark dance moves. I love this stuff – I spend much of the time trying to figure out just how they manage to do all of it.
Last night the performance started with one of the members jumping into a story featuring moving cars and Matrix-like slow motion. I wonder what a group like this could do with a big budget and a longer show.
They made the cut and will advance to the live shows. Check out the video below! | 2019-04-25T00:58:42Z | https://marcusleshock.com/udi-dance-group-glows-in-the-dark-on-americas-got-talent/ |
"If you stutter, read it."
"Jezer's autobiography of his stutter is a hilarious, honest, expedition to the hard of a paradoxical disability."
"This is a wonderful autobiography, written with courage, warmth, and wit, about a personal problem with stuttering. It gives the reader the latest news about stuttering treatment and research, from the perspective of someone who has been a client in many therapies and a subject in several studies. At its heart is a powerful story of growing up, shedding illusions, and coping with life. I think that everyone who stutters and every speech-language pathologist who works with stutterers should read it. In fact, so should anyone interested in the human condition."
"Totally absorbing. Jezer has accomplished an admirable interweaving of his experiences and introspections as a stutterer with a great deal of accurate information about stuttering and its treatment. The book should be of very considerable value to stutterers and their parents. For clinicians and students of speech pathology, the book offers a compelling glimpse of the inner life of a stutterer."
"Marty Jezer had me totally captivated from page one. He's an absolutely engaging story teller, and he looks at chronic stuttering from so many different perspectives that you cannot help but come away with an intuitive understanding of the multitude of ways the individual is affected. I consider STUTTERING: A LIFE BOUND UP IN WORDS a valuable resource for anyone who needs to know more about this troubling disorder."
"This book should be of interest to anyone who wants to know more about stuttering. I found it quite good reading."
"Marty Jezer has written a book about stuttering which should be required reading for anyone who offers or plans to offer professional help for people who stutter. With the current behavioral focus on how to achieve and maintain fluency, the individual doing the stuttering can all but disappear. This book is a powerful antidote to that view. It is a vivid picture of the world of stuttering as seen from the inside looking out."
"Fascinating. . . . Jezer combines his considerable literary skills as a writer with his history as someone who has lived with an intensely personal, severe, and chronic stuttering problem. He is forthright in explaining those things which have been helpful to him--as well as those things which have not. This is more than a book about stuttering. It is also a book about empathy, understanding, advocacy, and change."
"Jezer...is a gifted writer and moves with beguiling skill between general theory and the lessons of personal experience.... Anyone who stutters, or who is interested in stuttering, will benefit from reading this book. They will come away from it with admiration for the courage and determination of the author, and (if they happen to be fluent) with a wiser and more sympathetic appreciation of those less fortunate than themselves."
--BENSON BOBRICK, author of Knotted Tongues: Stuttering in History and the Quest for a Cure. | 2019-04-26T04:40:04Z | http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/kuster/pioneers/mjezer2005/reviews.html |
Today’s meeting is a bit late, but it’s still Monday so I did make it! I hope everyone’s weekend was great and the week brings sunshine and smiles to you.
Guess what I woke up to this morning? Snow!! About two inches of the white fluffy stuff was here and more was coming down. First major snow of the coming winter season. Of course, the husband and I had to go out in it this morning. We had to go to the hospital for his CT scan. We were there for three hours. They scanned his stomach and lungs for more tumors. We should know Thursday afternoon the results of the scan. The reason it took so long as he had to drink a liter of water with something mixed in it for his stomach scan. A big glass every half an hour for 2 hours. That’s a lot of water and a lot of sitting on their uncomfortable chairs.
All in all he’s doing pretty good, considering. I know he’s worried and scared, so am I, but he is handling it a lot better than most thought he would.
Sam got groomed last Monday too. The groomer I have is a wonderful woman named Tammy who runs a Mobile Dog Grooming trailer. I love that she comes to the house. Sure makes things easier on Sam. She took a picture of Sam for Christmas in an elf hat, fancy tutu collar next to a big box of toys. As soon as I can get a copy of it I will post it. She’s doing it for all her dogs and her customers as we don’t see her in December. She takes the month off to be with family during the holiday season. I can’t wait to see Sam in his Christmasy outfit.
Pretty boring week I had last week. Same for the weekend. Nothing much going on. Well, I mean there is always something going on, but some things I can’t mention as it’s not my story to tell. Let’s just say I’m so glad I don’t have kids and what kids we do have is the husband’s. 😉 Not that he needs the drama right now. Unfortunately, I can’t control everything he hears.
So that’s pretty much it for me for now. Next Monday will be a new update on things in the crazy world I live in. | 2019-04-21T05:09:57Z | https://tobreatheistowrite.com/2015/11/09/ |

What we have here is a problem with our terms.
Deputies say the eighteen year old Carson City man, along with a twenty-three year old Carson City man, were disassembling their weapons in a Crystal Township home Saturday evening. That's when the twenty-three year old thought he unloaded his handgun and while attempting to disassemble the weapon it discharged shooting the victim in the leg.
Thinking you have unloaded your handgun is not good enough. Unloading your handgun means knowing that there are no bullets in it.

Super Bowl LIII (53) happened Feb. 3, and the New England Patriots played against the Los Angeles Rams. It occurred at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The final score of the game was 13-3, with the Patriots winning their 6th Super Bowl. Many students at RCHS watched the super bowl, however this year’s Super Bowl was met with mixed responses.
“The Super Bowl was disappointing because both of the teams played poorly the whole game, and they didn’t play Sweet Victory at the halftime show,” Brett Birtzer ‘21 said.
“The teams both played defensively, which wasn’t as exciting to watch, and if the halftime show could’ve taken more risks, it would’ve been more interesting,” Esvaran Arun ‘22 said.
“The super bowl was worse because the teams were not playing at their best, and they did not play sweet victory at the halftime show, making it worse,” Andrew Dupper ‘22 said.
The Patriot’s first Super Bowl win 2002 was also against the Rams, so this will be the second time the two teams played in the same Super Bowl.
Previous to Super Bowl LIII, the Patriots have won 5 Super Bowls (2002, 2004, 2005, 2015, 2017) and the Rams have won 1 Super Bowl (2000).
This Super Bowl is Tom Brady’s 9th super bowl appearance, and his 6th Super Bowl win, since he started on the Patriots in 2000. He is currently 41 years old, and expected to continue playing for the Patriots.
This Super Bowl was the lowest scoring Super Bowl game in Super Bowl history, with a score of 13-3, Patriots win. With the previous lowest scoring game being Super Bowl VII, when the Miami Dolphins played the Washington Redskins. The final score was 14-7, Dolphins win.
The Ram’s kicker, Johnny Hekker, managed to kick the longest punt in Super Bowl history, with a punt that went 65 yards. The previous record was made by the Patriots kicker, Ryan Allen, who made a punt of 64 yards against the Seahawks in Super Bowl XLIX (49), in 2015. | 2019-04-23T18:11:48Z | https://rockmediaonline.org/2304/sports/not-so-super-super-bowl/ |

Shoplifters commit some 11 million retail thefts each year in the UK, causing annual losses of over £1,886 million. Employee theft is even more serious, costing UK businesses over £1.6bn per year and accounting for over a third of all retail shrinkage.
Because of the relatively low risk of being caught, shoplifters and light-fingered staff alike increasingly see theft as an easy way to supplement their income. If not stopped, these so-called petty criminals can seriously jeopardise your business.
The visible presence of CCTV cameras is proven to deter would-be thieves.
Instances of theft are much reduced when a CCTV system is in operation.
CCTV is more efficient and cost effective than a paid security guard.
The installation of CCTV can significantly reduce your business insurance premium.
In the event a burglary does occur, CCTV can record the crime, greatly aiding police in the apprehension of thieves and the retrieval of stolen goods.
CCTV is not only for businesses. With theft from garages, driveways and outbuildings all on the increase, homeowners, too, are now seeing CCTV as a powerful way of deterring thieves.
CCTV is proven to be a powerful visible deterrent to thieves.
"Soft targets", such as driveways and outbuildings can all be protected with CCTV.
When a visitor calls, CCTV enables you to see who that visitor is before you open the door. This is particularly reassuring for the elderly and lone females.
The presence of CCTV can reduce your home insurance premium.
In the event a burglary does occur, CCTV can record the crime in progress, greatly aiding police in the apprehension of offenders and the retrieval of stolen goods. | 2019-04-23T22:55:01Z | https://www.teesvalleysecurity.co.uk/digitalCCTV.php |

Q: What is a gatepass, why do we need it?
A gatepass is a simple document containing the detail of items while making any product movement outside the warehouse.
It is defined to secure the outbound transactions and ensure a smarter way of managing and keeping a track of the inventory for those products which were not dispatched for fulfilling an order. The scenario may be, a product is sent out for only exhibition purpose, return it to vendor in case of QC rejection or discarding the bad inventory etc. | 2019-04-23T16:09:55Z | http://support.unicommerce.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2130452-q-what-is-a-gatepass-why-do-we-need-it- |
