Have you ever considered retiring to Mexico? If you have ever contemplated the fun idea you know there are plenty of advantages to retiring to Mexico. Mexico is close to home, has cheaper prices and beautiful year round warm weather. Mexico also has extremely friendly immigration laws for those looking to retire. People with pensions as low as $1,000 USD a month can apply for a permanent resident visa or $500 USD if the foreigner owns property in Mexico.
Our company has helped many foreigners find their dream home in Mexico. Here is a list of the top 5 reasons why our clients decided to retire to this beautiful country.
The close proximity of Mexico to the United States and Canada. This allows retirees to live a flexible lifestyle. Many of our clients like the idea of keeping their home and purchasing a second property in Mexico. They can go back and forth whenever they need or want to visit friends and family, get medical care, go shopping or visit the beach. The clients use their new dream home in Mexico as their snowbirds paradise, summer home or vacation home. Living the best of both worlds.
Low Investment to Move
If you want to experience life overseas, all you need is a plane ticket and a Live It, Compare It & Buy It Tour. The Live It Tour allows you to live and experience various property in and around Merida, Yucatan. Compare all the properties in the area that fit your wants and needs. And when you find the perfect property in Mexico, buy it. You can purchase a nice condo, house, even beachfront and on the beach in a popular area Progreso or Chelem for around $50,000 – 70,000 USD.
Low Cost of Living
Low cost of living in Mexico is one of the main motivations for people looking to retire in Mexico. Your pension or savings will stretch much further in Mexico. A pension of as little as $1,000 USD a month would allow you to live in a beautiful tropical paradise and enjoy the little luxuries Mexico has to offer. You could have staff to do your cleaning and gardening, visit the spa or occasional take a short trip to visit the other areas of Mexico. The lower cost of living in Mexico allows you to enjoy a better life on a lot less money.
A Growing Community of Expats and Retirees
Over a million retirees already living permanently in Mexico, and an unknown number living here part-time. Some of popular retirement areas are home to many communities of foreign retirees. These areas also have local expat hangouts, volunteer and social groups. You are sure to meet other expats that share similar interests and forge long, lasting relationships.
Cheap Medical Care
Medical procedures can cost half as much or less as they would in the United States. Insurance premiums are also lower than that in the United States. Additional, Mexico allows foreigners to join government run medical services such as IMSS and Seguro Popular.
Merida, Yucatan Mexico has first class hospitals, often staffed with English-speaking and U.S. medical school-trained doctors. Living as a retiree in Mexico, you could afford even elective procedures such as cosmetic dentistry or other cosmetic care. As an example, the cost of a crown in Mexico can cost around $300 to $400. The same procedure would cost three to five times as much with a U.S. dentist.

Have you ever wondered who attends an event like Wealth Retreat?
I know I always did.
I have been attending Wealth Retreat for the best part of 5 years now, but I remember asking that question before my very first Wealth Retreat.
I questioned my own worth and being an introvert, I also questioned whether or not this was just like one of those “Ra-Ra” seminars.
The truth is, it far exceeded my expectations and lit the spark that saw me transition from a humble Buyers Agent and property investor, to company Director and Property Professional. I know
Michael Yardney gets a real kick out of helping our clients and hearing their feedback and especially listening to what people get out of our Wealth Retreat.
To be honest it is difficult to come away from 5 days of learning, listening, dining and chatting to some of the best mentors in the country without some kind of mind shift.
I thought I would talk to a few participants from this year’s Wealth Retreat, to find out what they got out of it.
Carla initially “ummed and ahhed” and had very high expectations about coming to Wealth Retreat.
She had been to many other different types of Seminars.
Listen as she explains what she got out of the Retreat and her advice for other potential first time attendees.
It may surprise you but we also get many Business Owners attending the Retreat.
You see, it is so much more than just a property event as we also have Mark Creedon there to assist, with his decades of experience as a Business Coach.
Graham is someone I consider to be a successful business owner, but he continues to self-educate and improve his business.
Graham was also initially sceptical; however, he believes it would make a million dollars difference to his business!
Here are some of Grahams breakthroughs;
You are telling me people come back again?
That’s right, around 30% of our audience each year is made up of repeat guests.
Many, like myself have come back multiple times and will return again next year.
It is a great opportunity to refresh and re set for the year ahead.
Glen explains why he came back;
Wealth Retreat is definitely not for everybody.
But if you are looking for a breakthrough in your personal life, if you have hit a hurdle with your investing or want to find another level for your business, then don’t rule it out.
The truth is comparing myself to others and having initial doubts is natural, but it is left at Reception once you step through the doors.
It is about you and your journey, taking time out to better yourself and build yourself up and set course for those goals and dreams that you may put to one side.
The team is there to support you and incredibly, so is everyone else!
It is amazing the feedback we get every year, highlighting the fact some of the biggest breakthroughs come from speaking with other attendees.
And how often do you get to spend 5 days learning and talking with people on the same page – with similar hopes, fears and challenges.
Wealth Retreat is on again next year from June 13 – June 18 2020 on the Gold Coast.
Being some months away now, you have time to prepare, maybe save, but most importantly prioritise.
Click this link now and get an understanding of what lies ahead for you.
I can assure you it will be life changing! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Part 1: Image-Mapped Tutorial

Return to main tutorial page
The Reticular Formation contains a number of neuron groups and fiber tracts that run the full length of the lower brain stem (medulla, pons, and midbrain). The ascending fibers carry information to the cerebellum, hypothalamus, thalamus, limbic system, and cerebral cortex. These connections allow the reticular formation to modulate the activity of neurons diffusely throughout the central nervous system, and thereby regulate both the sleep-wake cycle and levels of arousal and activity while awake. The more active the reticular formation, the more able we are to focus attention on events outside of us. Destruction of these fibers results in coma. Descending fibers from the reticular formation to the spinal cord regulate the perception of pain, breathing, and muscular reflexes.
The term reticular is derived from the Latin word rete, which means net. This term describes the widespread projections of the ascending portion of the reticular formation (ascending reticular activating system, ARAS) and the high degree of interconnection between neurons within the formation. When examined under magnification, the reticular formation is distinctly more irregular in appearance than the rest of the brain. When the ARAS is stimulated, a sleeping individual is awakened or an individual who is awake becomes more aroused to external events. Damage of the reticular formation results in prolonged sleep or inactivity. The neurotransmitter, norepinephrine, is utilized by this activating region. The ARAS receives input from the cranial nerves and all sensory systems. Strong stimulation from any of these inputs will activate the ARAS, which in turn activates large portions of the cerebral cortex. In addition, the ARAS is capable of generating its own spontaneous activity. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
RPK - Hall of Fame
If you have passed four RPK modules (A, B, C and D) you will be officially registered as Registered Polymer Expert (RPK: RegisterPolymeerKundige). Since the introduction of the modular RPK-course in 1993, over 148 participants have obtained the RPK-title.
Review - Mark Wesseling - Fokker
Thank you for the kind words. It was an incredible journey that I started in September 2019. Being out of academia since my graduation in 1999, I was not really sure what to expect and whether I would be able to keep up with the the lecturers and my fellow participants in the field of polymer science. After slightly more than 3 years, I am proud that I have finished all 4 modules and to be part of the RPK Hall of Fame.I want to thank PTN - Polymer Technology Netherlands for their fantastic work by organizing and enabling this series of post-graduate courses in polymer science. My special thanks go out to the coordinators of the 4 modules for organizing and setting up very interesting programs that include very diverse topics in the field of polymer science. I also want to thank all the lecturers that have devoted their time by travelling to Utrecht from all over Europe (and the USA) to educate me and my fellow participants in their field of expertise. Lastly, I want to thank my fellow participants for the time well spent during the lectures, lunch / coffee breaks and commutes to and from Utrecht!! Until we meet again!! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

This article presents both a modern engineering research centre and its application in students'
interdisciplinary research projects. The Laboratory of Motion Analysis and Interface Ergonomics was
funded in part by the European Union programs. It is equipped with: a motion capture system, an
electromyography system, two biomechanical platforms, a pulsometer, wearable and screen-based
eye-tracker systems and an electroencephalography system. All presented systems can be used
simultaneously during a single experiment. They all are computerized. The following body parameters
may be measured: motion geometry, muscle activity, ground reaction forces, heart rate, eye
movement, brain waves related to motion of human body parts. The research conducted at the
laboratory relates to various fields which include: medicine, sport, human-machine interactions
(construction of brain-computer interfaces). The described research centre is used for MSc and PhD
students’ projects. Projects are mainly interdisciplinary and involve students and experts from other
universities and/or industry. The students that work at the laboratory represent mainly bioengineering
and computer science disciplines.
The main objective of this paper is to present how students used different systems to measure of
human motion parameters in their research project. The organisation of students’ research work in the
laboratory and some examples of research projects are presented in this paper, as well as the synergy
and interdisciplinary effect of integrated measurements. These research are a part of the usual
educational process or additional scientific students’ activities implemented within the framework of
students’ research groups | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
During computer science (IT) studies at technical universities there are project classes where the
students are asked to implement a piece of software, an application or a system. These types of
classes are included into the curricula of IT programmes. These subjects are very demanded because
the students need to turn the theoretical knowledge acquired during their education into a way of
creating their own product. They may use the equipment installed at the universities as well as their
own, for example mobile devices, which have recently been very popular. During the second degree of
their education, the students have to be taught how to perform research supervised by an academic
The aim of this paper is to present an innovative mobile application as an example of the tasks given
to students during their IT project class. The software is created to assist researchers investigating the
effectiveness of motion detection or dealing with static structures with low dynamics of the surrounding
environment. The application uses an embedded camera in order to detect motion. The application
provides motion detection using implemented algorithms, changing their parameters, and saving
images and logs from its course into the device’s memory. Additionally, analysis was performed with
the created software on two various mobile devices. Three algorithms (RGB, Luma and Aggregate
Luma) were analysed using two mobile devices for various environment conditions. The tests were
performed twice. Firstly, for a room with very good lighting and then for one with poor one. Each test
consisted of two steps that differed by the participant's clothes.
The project class in question develops the students’ project, software, testing and research skills.
Thus, such classes may be a link between education and research.
The students are more involved in their study when they are interested in the subject, especially
working with modern equipment like mobile devices | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Crisis Pregnancy Center Fraud Prevention Act: The City of Oakland, California recently enacted a truth-in-advertising law that addresses fraud by crisis pregnancy centers, which are anti-abortion offices masquerading as medical clinics. The Oakland statute is similar to a 2011 San Francisco law which was upheld in federal court. Our model bill, the Crisis Pregnancy Center Fraud Prevention Act can be adopted at either the state or local level.
Notwithstanding Hillary, why aren’t more women in public office? Only 20 percent of the Members of Congress, 25 percent of statewide elected officials, 25 percent of state legislators, and less than 19 percent of mayors are female. Why? Read about it on IdeaLog, our blog intended to raise eyebrows and engage minds.
The Science of Political Persuasion: We won’t present a live webinar next week because we’ll be at the National Conference of State Legislatures. But let us invite you to watch a pre-recorded 20-minute podcast on the Science of Political Persuasion. It explains how emotion, preexisting beliefs and confirmation bias tend to block your ability to convince others, and how to get around those obstacles.
Early Childhood Education Workforce: The Center for the Study of Child Care Employment issued a study tracking the employment conditions of child care workers in every state.

By Ralph Ellison, not H. G. Wells. One of those books you are Supposed To Read. No question, it's powerful and (arguably) timely, despite being published nearly 70 years ago. I got a cheap Kindle version, link on the right as usual. But (consumer note) it had a bunch of minor typographic glitches, so you may want to spring for something more reliable, perhaps this spiffy Modern Library edititon.
Did I mention timely? I had never used Kindle's highlighting feature before, but here's a couple sentences I found speaking to America's relationship with President Bone Spurs:
Whether we liked him or not, he was never out of our minds. That was a secret of leadership.
Sounds sarcastic, but is it, really?
The unnamed African-American narrator takes us on his life's journey from high school, into an college, into the world of work in New York City, then becoming a "community organizer" in Harlem, finally moving into self-exile from American society. (Oops, spoilers, sorry.) His path is marked with all sorts of incidents: bizarre, absurd, many nightmarish. And (very few) hilarious. He continually makes "seemed like a good idea at the time" choices that come back to bite him in the ass. It doesn't help that he's continually exploited and betrayed by his co-workers, superiors, and friends. He abandons the few actually-decent people he meets along the way.
Note for my fellow right-wingers: Among the exploiters is a thinly-disguised Communist Party, looking to use him as a puppet to engage Harlem into its revolutionary cause.
Ellison's prose is dense and flowery. I think I've seen it described as "Faulkneresque" but it's been a long time since I read Faulkner, so I couldn't tell you. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Auburn Farms, at the forefront of agricultural innovation, is utilizing state-of-the-art technologies to improve output and efficiency. The use of drones for crop spraying is one such technical innovation that is revolutionizing contemporary agriculture. These unmanned aerial vehicles are transforming agricultural management by providing a host of benefits that result in higher yields, lower expenses, and a more environmentally friendly method of farming. Let’s take a look at the benefits of Crop Spraying Drones in Auburn!
From antiquated farming techniques to contemporary, technologically advanced ways, agriculture has advanced significantly. A growing world population and a rising need for food production mean that farmers are always looking for ways to increase yields while reducing their negative environmental effects. Auburn Farms, which is located in an area with a long history of agriculture, has realized that innovation is necessary to remain sustainable and competitive over the long term.
Applying insecticides, herbicides, and fertilizers to crops to protect and nourish them is known as crop spraying, and it is an essential part of contemporary farming. This procedure has historically required a lot of effort, taken a long time, and was frequently ineffective. The era of drones for crop spraying is here; for Auburn Farms and many others, it will be a game-changer.
The benefits of crop spraying drones are manifold. Some of them are as under:
Drones that spray crops have several benefits, but one of the biggest is that they can apply precision agricultural methods. Farmers can accurately target regions that require treatment because of the powerful sensors and imaging technologies these drones are equipped with. This accuracy guarantees that just the regions that require treatment are treated, minimize waste, and use fewer chemicals overall. The ultimate result is a crop management strategy that is more economical and ecologically benign.
Conventional agricultural spraying techniques can demand large labor and time commitments. Large fields must be traversed by farmers either by hand or with the aid of machines, which may be laborious and physically taxing. Drones used for crop spraying, however, may cover larger regions in a fraction of the time required by conventional methods. This optimizes the efficacy of treatments by freeing up labor resources and enabling more frequent and timely applications.
Like many others, Auburn Farms struggles to manage broad and varied fields. Drones that spray crops offer a solution to this problem by making locations accessible that could be hard to reach with conventional equipment. Drones’ dexterity and adaptability enable farmers to effortlessly traverse difficult terrain and access every area of the land. This guarantees thorough covering and treatment, which eventually helps produce crops that are healthier and more fruitful.
Drone technology for agricultural spraying may seem like a big initial expenditure, but the long-term cost reductions add up. Auburn Farms growers can see a large decrease in operating expenses by eliminating the need for human work, decreasing chemical waste, and maximizing resource utilization. Higher crop yields ultimately offset the original expenditure and enhance overall profitability due to the greater efficiency and precision of drone applications.
Drones used for crop spraying encourage agricultural methods that are ecologically friendly. Farmers may reduce the negative effects of chemical applications on the environment by using precision targeting. This tailored strategy limits exposure to non-targeted creatures and lowers the possibility of chemical discharge into water sources. Drones used for crop spraying are in line with the worldwide trend towards more environmentally friendly farming techniques as the agriculture sector adopts sustainable practices at an increasing rate.
Input application is only one aspect of modern agriculture; another is using data to make well-informed decisions. Drones used for crop spraying produce useful data by using sensors and imaging technologies. To evaluate crop health, spot pest or disease outbreaks, and decide on treatment plans based on data, this data may be examined. Auburn Farms may improve its agricultural methods and proactively handle problems for increased productivity and resilience by utilizing this knowledge.
Read our recent articles to know more about agriculture drones.
The technological revolution that is reshaping the landscape of modern agriculture is being led by Auburn Farms, which is at the forefront of this change. The use of drones to spray crops is not just a concept that will be implemented in the future, but it is also a practical approach for farmers to solve concerns regarding sustainability, saving money, and increasing efficiency. By continuing to use these cutting-edge technologies, Auburn Farms will undoubtedly be able to reap advantages that will extend beyond their respective sectors and contribute to the creation of a more sustainable and secure food future for all of us. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
One might say that part of, perhaps even the biggest part of, the craft of storytelling lies in the ability of the one bringing forth the tale to respond to tales, to stories, which are already in the world; lies in her capacity to see the potential tale in what is happening in the world; to see in the world, the potential for tales; perhaps even see the world as potential tales.
And nowhere is this more apparent than in Wesley Leon Aroozoo catching a glimpse of what I Want To Go Home could be, before it was even so.
And the fact that all of us are saying what a captivating back-story his book and film draws from is nothing but testament to, us bearing witness to, his sensibilities, to his sensitivities.
One of the marks of a good artist is the ability to translate: to transform the world through their craft into the medium by which they allow us to catch a glimpse of a world. And, the form through which Mr Aroozoo enacts a movement of the world — regardless of whether it is a play, a script, a talk, perhaps even when he teaches — is film: for, and here we should make no mistake, Wesley Leon Aroozoo is a maker of movements of blocks of time.
For, as one can read from both the textual and filmic versions of I Want To Go Home (but also the textual and stage versions of Bedok Reservoir), Mr Aroozoo’s concern is how time unfolds to us: which is why we always wait when we bear witness to his work.
And, as both Maurice Blanchot and Samuel Beckett have taught us, waiting is the very condition of thinking, of questioning — and as one is attending to Mr Aroozoo’s work (which is always a film, regardless of what it first appears to be), if one is paying attention, the question of what exactly are attending to is never far from one. Of whether the film is a documentary of Mr Aroozoo’s trip to Japan; a testimony to Yasuo Takamatsu and his undying fidelity to his wife; an indictment of neo-liberal Japan’s indifference to the loss of life; of the tsunami as a figure that opens socio-economic questions in the polis that we call Japan; and so on and so forth. And whilst the fact that multiple forms, a variety of questions, within a film is certainly not new, what stands out is Mr Aroozoo’s sensitivity to the singularity of each of these forms. Such that he is willing to respond — responsibility and ethics being never far from his work, his approach — to each of these possibilities without attempting to reconcile them, pull them under a totalitarian gesture of the author.
Which means that Wesley Leon Aroozoo is not attempting auteur cinema — but something even more interesting. Where, what he is doing is calling into question the very possibility of the author herself.
Where his work, his film, is nothing more — and infinitely nothing less — than cinema as such.
Where, what he is responding to is precisely the possibility of a film — a film that is always already in the world, but one in which he is framing as film, naming as film — unveiling itself in and through time.
For, the fact is that his films — documentary, narrative, filmic, experimental, or otherwise — unfold as narrations; where his works shimmer with discomfort of being trapped in the inevitable linearity of time in cinema.
And, perhaps more importantly, instead of taking route of ‘non-linear’ presentation — which would be far too easy, and completely uninteresting — by deliberately allowing his films to uncomfortably unfold in their linearity, Wesley Leon Aroozoo shows us both the conditions and the limit of film itself.

Vampiric schoolgirls, crocodilian men, and spectral lovers populate this eerie programme, in which myths, the supernatural, and alternative universes spark the queer imagination. Blurring boundaries between reality and fantasy, the filmmakers delve into weird and wonderful experiences that ignite the possibility of change: personal, political, and philosophical. To be queer is, literally, to be strange or odd, which here serves as a means of challenging cultural understandings of gender and sexuality. Through blood, fish scales, and sexy copies of Hegel’s oeuvre, the films in this collection make otherworldliness a point of pride.

Like most first time mums, I spent the first three months on my couch nursing a baby & watching endless episodes of Dexter and Greys Anatomy. So, as we approached month four, I started looking for things to ‘do’ with Penny, that didn’t include finding another theme tune that would lull her to sleep.
I had heard about sign language to help babies communicate from my brother in law, and a few friends who had taught their children some signs at an early age. I loved the idea of being able to understand what Penny needed and wanted, especially as I had realised that babies don’t come with that instruction booklet I had hoped for.
A lovely woman called Danielle ran a Superhands class in Bellermine Community Rooms. We were in a group with three other mums and babies, who were all a few months older than Penny. The room was lovely and bright and clean, and Danielle explained we could let the babies do as they pleased throughout the class. On that note, realising Dexter would not be shown, Miss Penny buried her head back to her milk, and off she went to sleep. The older babies got involved though.
There were some clear posters on the wall, with the alphabet and the words to some simple rhymes. Starting with the alphabet, we slowly began to sing and sign our way from A to Z. Very slowly. Our homework was to learn our name, and our child’s. Practice made perfect, and by the start of the second class, we could introduce ourselves, our child, and do a fantastic rendition of Incy Wincy Spider!
On the last day of the course, we were given a list of over a hundred words, some which we had specifically asked for, and the amazing Superhands book. The book is lovely, with clear illustrations and instructions and soon became a firm favourite with Penny. We were advised to use one sign to start, so almost without fail, I signed ‘milk’ everytime Penny fed. Which, was (and still is!) a lot. At 8 months old, she started signing milk back to me, and a few weeks later requesting it with her sign.
From there, she learned the sign for Daddy, and biscuit, which we use for any sort of snack. I’m not great at sharing my chocolate digestives with her, but she was happy with a rice cake. We would read the book every few days, and introduce words as and when she needed them.
Penny is 14 months old now, and will sit with her Superhands book, and ‘read’ it to herself. She never gets frustrated as she can ask for everything she wants, and usually gets it, unless of course it’s those valuable digestives! Introducing the words please and thank you recently, mean it’s near impossible to say no to her.
As of the last couple of weeks, she now requests a nappy change as soon as she is wet, signing ‘change’ and ‘nappy’. This will be a great help when we start potty training. Her words are coming along too, and as she gets them, she just adds it in while signing. A favourite is saying and signing ‘fast’ as she watches cars drive by.
Baby signing is a huge help in the first couple of years of a child’s life. Attending a SuperHands class would be something I’d recommend to all new parents, but unlike us, I would consider waiting until the baby is 5 and a half to six months old.
***To see the marvelous Penny in action, watch the truly amazing video below!

Firstly, let me say this: I am 100% a fan of breastfeeding our babies. And I am 100% a fan of bottle feeding our babies. Therefore, you might conclude that A) I have done both and B) I am taking my usual judgement-free stance on what other people do to feed their babies…and you’d be right.
But all the statistic waving on the subject of breastfeeding in Ireland of late is giving me, quite frankly, a large pain in my tits. Surely I am not the only person who realises that the real reason we have such low numbers of breastfeeding women in our country is because NO BODY TELLS US THE TRUTH ABOUT IT.
Newsflash: Breastfeeding Is Hard For Some People. Why won’t anyone just admit that to expectant mothers, instead of saying ‘Breast Is Best’ ad nauseum, without outlining the realities of how breastfeeding works? Wouldn’t our young mothers do better with realistic expectations, instead of believing it’s going to be all ‘babe-suckling-at-the-boob-by-the-candlelight’; only to become disheartened when the breastfeeding begins and it doesn’t follow what they’ve been told?
Nope, our health service continues to omit the relevant info, and leave our poor new mothers to fend for themselves when the new baby comes along. If you attend any of our maternity hospitals’ ante-natal classes when you are expecting a baby, you will most likely come away with the following (false) info:
1. If it’s your first baby, you’ll be overdue. You will know you are in labour when your waters break and you feel something like a period pain. Definitely stay at home for another two hours until the pain in unbearable before you come in to the hospital because we’re mad busy.
2. Don’t ask for the epidural until you have been in labour for hours and hours and hours. At the point that you do ask, it may or may not then be too late to actually get the epidural. And sure why would you want it anyway when you’ll have a quicker birth without it? (See Point 1: ‘We’re mad busy’).
3. Breastfeed your baby. It is the most natural thing in the world. Sure they do it in India.
Whisky. Tango. Foxtrot!
First thing off the cliff should be that statement ‘It’s the most natural thing in the world’, because it isn’t for lots of people. What breastfeeding needs is time and patience and support and a demo video of how to get your baby to the boob successfully in public. These are the logistical challenges that modern mothers should have the answers to.
If the Irish health service really wanted to increase the numbers of women breastfeeding in Ireland, I would suggest that they perhaps send all expectant mothers a pack called ‘The Truth About Breastfeeding’. The cover letter would read as follows:
We hope you and baby are healthy and well. In the event that you choose to breastfeed your new baby boy or girl, we wanted to send you the following items out of the goodness of our hearts:
A nipple guard, some super-robust breast pads, nipple cream, a realistic schedule of when you should expect your baby to feed week by week, and when you should be resting your boobs and body, a demo of how to do it in public, a decent breast pump, a bottle and carton of instant formula for when you need it (and THAT’S OK), a list of non-arsehole-riddled coffee shops and restaurants where your baby can feed in peace, and a voucher for M&S so you can get fitted and buy yourself a nice new bra when the time comes that you stop breastfeeding.
Also, everything you decide is up to you.
Love, the Irish Health Service’

What is CBD all about and why are cannabis and hemp oil all over the internet? To help you understand this rapidly growing industry, we’re going to present you with some interesting CBD statistics and facts.
CBD or cannabidiol is one of the most important active substances in the cannabis (marijuana) plant. It can be obtained from different cannabis species, but it can also be synthetically produced. There are divided opinions on whether it works better on its own or joined with other cannabis compounds, yet one thing is for sure — its positive effects on human (and pet) health are undeniable. At the moment, only CBD derived from hemp is legal under federal law while we wait for more research on the substance to begin.
We can observe CBD as an amazing cure, but we can also watch the changes in the industry. That is one serious venture and a lot of people would like to get a piece of that $20 billion pie (this is the prognosis for US sales of CBD by 2024).
With that in mind, here is our pick of:
Top 10 CBD Facts and Statistics
- The sales of CBD are predicted to reach about $1.8 billion by 2022.
- At the moment, there are over 850 brands of CBD products in the US market.
- With over $1 billion, Colorado is the state with the highest cannabis revenues.
- Data on CBD user demographics show 40% of Americans are interested in trying CBD.
- A cannabis worker earns more than an average American.
- The demand for employees in the CBD oil industry rose by 76% in one year.
- Statistics on CBD direct sales show that the majority of direct sellers are women.
- Women are founders or general managers of over 75% of CBD brands.
- Pure CBD is perfectly safe for usage and you cannot get addicted to it.

Academic achievement; Musical ability
This study was designed to look at the cognitive development of students who have formal musical training and compare them to students who lack any musical ability. The purpose of the study was to lend support to the positive effect that musical training has on space relations and mathematical abilities.
The sample consisted of twenty students enrolled in an undergraduate psychology course at a major university and twenty students enrolled in a high level music class at the same institution. Most of the subjects came from middle class backgrounds and live in New Jersey. The Differential Aptitude Test, form C, was administered under standard conditions to measure the spatial relations and mathematical abilities of the forty subjects.
Independent t-tests were calculated to discover if there was a significance between the mean scores for both groups on both sections of the test. In addition, a paired samples t-test was calculated to see if there was a significance between the spatial relations and mathematical ability means for the same group.
The mean scores on both sections of the test were higher for the musically trained than those for the non-musical group. However, significance of the differences was only found for the spatial relations scores and not the math scores. Also, a significance was found for the hypothesis that suggests a relationship between space relations and mathematical ability.

A honest conversation about a song from the heart...
Nov 23rd Stampede City Sessions/Unknown Legend/You And I Will Never End
A friend once told me of a quote that went something like this ‘success is uphill, both ways’. Mull that over and I’m left with, nothing good ever comes easy.
So on this episode - the eighth one so far - I decided to get really honest.
As I attempt to find a way to connect with The Record Club on a more personal and valuable way, I’m learning that it’s all about me opening up to you, first.
So go easy on me, eh! I’m still working on it…
The very last track on ‘A Way Through Time’ is called ‘You and I Will Never End’. I struggled for a long while working through what I wanted to say- and needed to say with the tune. Every time I picked up my guitar the idea was staring me in the face. I could see, I understood what I was trying to do but the lyrics were stubborn, they just didn’t wanna get done. Jay Stewart and I ended up recording the vocals multiple times because of this. I enlisted Jay, Jeremy Friesen, Ryan McAllister and along with my sister Janelle to try and help me. Finally, on the very last session of the album, I was able to sing it with the conviction I so longed for.
The day we tracked the lyrics were the last moments I would ever have with Jer. As long as my brain will let me, I’ll remember the hug he gave me as he left.
So listen to Episode 8 and hear why I wrote the song, who it was for and why getting these lyrics right was so important.
NOV 23rd - Stampede City Sessions
We’ve got a really exciting show happening here in Calgary on Nov 23rd. It’s at Webber Academy and will be filmed for the 10th Season of ‘Stampede City Sessions’.
I’m soooooo exited to capture the show that Jimmy, Brock, Maddison and I built this year. We played so many fun shows and feel like we have something special to offer.
If you can’t make the show, it will air on KSPS/PBS Spokane right before AUSTIN CITY LIMITS on Saturday nights sometime in near the future. I’ll keep ya posted on the air date.
I’ve even seen a cool couple photos of this long haired, red head up around town…

On 7 September, Typhoon Yagi, Viet Nam’s strongest in 30 years, struck the northern part of the country with powerful winds and days of heavy rains, resulting in devastating floods and landslides. The destructive force of this typhoon has brought immense challenges to thousands of families and communities, severely impacting livelihoods, homes, critical infrastructure and the provision of basic services. As Viet Nam faces increasing risks of extreme weather events due to the growing effects of climate change, Typhoon Yagi is yet another reminder of the urgent need to bolster our collective efforts in responding to immediate needs, early recovery, building resilience and preparing for the future.
The impact of Typhoon Yagi has not only heightened humanitarian needs but also disrupted livelihoods, particularly among vulnerable communities dependent on agriculture and small-scale trade. The international community has responded in solidarity with Viet Nam, swiftly offering in-kind and financial support.
Under the overall leadership of the Resident Coordinator’s Office (RCO) the Joint Response Plan was developed by the Intersector Coordination Group (ISCG), sector coordinators and their respective members, in consultation with the Government of Viet Nam. It aims to identify those critical response priorities to be covered by UN agencies, NGOs and the Viet Nam Red Cross in order to augment the wider Government response. The joint response plan will cover a period of nine months (September 2024-June 2025) and will consider both the immediate humanitarian needs and early recovery activities, which are mainstreamed and integrated through all sector plans. Sectors involved in the plan worked in close coordination with each other to ensure that planned priority activities have the most significant impact on the lives of the most vulnerable people.
The Joint Response Plan summarizes coordinated response priorities of UN and NGOs and articulates the financial resources required to implement priority programs. The plan provides accountability to Government by outlining the coordinated support that will be prioritized by international organizations, including priority sectors and interventions. The plan also focuses on supporting acute needs of the most vulnerable – poor, near poor, pregnant and lactating women, ethnic minorities, children, elderly, people with disabilities, and the displaced, with strategic consideration given to cross cutting issues (cash, gender, protection, environment).

Solar cells combined with power management algorithms enable the dynamic scheduling of Wireless Sensor Networks applications in a reference period, where the objective of the scheduling is to maximize the application quality level while conserving an energy level sufficient to constantly maintain the sensor operation. With the purpose of fulfillment of its activities the sensor may have alternative different applications with different costs and quality levels, which are intended to express how much the application meets the user requirements. In this paper we propose an algorithm that aims to find a (sub)optimal scheduling that maximizes the overall quality of service for two networked, solar cells powered sensors, and keeps the system energy neutral, thus ensuring that the system works uninterruptedly.

In the Information Society, end-users keep increasing very fast in number, as well as in their demand with respect to the activities they would like to perform with computer environments, without being obliged to become computer specialists. There is a strong request of providing end-users with powerful and flexible environments, tailorable to the culture, skills and needs of very diverse end-user population. In this paper, we discuss a framework for End-User Development (EUD) and present our current work to design environments that support the activities of domain expert users, with the objective of easing the way these users work with computers. Such environments are called workshops in analogy to artisan workshops since they provide users with the tools, organized on a bench, that are necessary to accomplish their specific activities by properly “shaping” software artifacts.

You might even be pushing upwards against your manager, trying to make things better but being thwarted at every turn.
But remember that you do have agency – agency of how you choose to show up every day.
You can coast, not make waves, and never seek to make things better.
You can also raise Hell, fight for better, and question the status quo.
Either way, it’s a choice you’re making. The worst thing you can do is to choose one of these paths and not understand you made a choice to take it. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Pleasure is good, yes? We can, I think, admit that experiencing pleasure in life is one of it’s great, um, pleasures. For some, pleasure a great meal with fine wine and friends. For others, yoga, a hot bath or a polar bear dip on New Year’s Day. Pleasures are limitless.
Sexual pleasure is good too. For women especially, sexual shame can get in our way of accepting sexual pleasure as something that we’re all ‘allowed’ to have. In my perfect world, sexual pleasure is something that we all know we deserve.
As mothers, as parents, how do we help our daughters grow into women who are comfortable with their bodies and their sexuality? If sexual desire and pleasure are important components of a healthy and happy life, what is our role in shaping our daughters understanding of these concepts? Can we really be satisfied by the education they will receive on the topic if we don’t play a role?
Teaching our daughters how their bodies work is important. But parents often leave out how female bodies have a fabulous capacity for sexual pleasure. Female orgasm is not necessary for baby-making — maybe that’s why the topic of pleasure is sorely neglected.
With a better sense of and respect for sexual pleasure, women might ask for what they like and may feel worthy of sexual gratification. If they understand that pleasure is an integral part of sexual activity for everyone involved, they might discard relationships that fail to honor it. Equipped with information about their bodies, young women might, without shame, figure out how to bring themselves to orgasm. They might not have to wait until many years into their sexual lives to discover that sex, and their sexuality, is pleasurable.
So what can we do and say so that they grow up understanding the pleasure that their bodies can feel and the right they have to feel it?
• When our toddlers are in the bath and they are having a look about, introduce the word clitoris (and distinguish it from vagina)
• When you explain how babies are made, or what sex is, communicate that sex is not just for baby-making but is for fun, intimacy and pleasure.
• When talking about sex, speak broadly about what constitutes sexual activity and what can feel good.
• If your child masturbates, let her know that she is allowed to make her body feel good in that way. Even if you don’t think masturbation is happening, explain that touching your own genitals is natural and normal and a great way to get to know your own body and what feels good.
• Read age-appropriate books with your kid about sex, sexuality and masturbation.
• When you introduce puberty, let girls know that their genitals will also grow up and may begin to feel tingly when they have a crush.
Share messages of self-love and body-love. If you’re partnered, consider ways that you (can) model healthy intimacy, love and pleasure.
• Reinforce that all sexual activity must be consensual. Describe what enthusiastic consent is and how sexual activity is best when pleasure is experienced by everyone involved.
These messages of self-respect and self-love, coupled with sound information about sex and sexuality can begin early and can set our daughters up for a lifetime a pleasure.
That’s good, yes?
~ Marnie “The Sexplainer” Goldenberg, who’s got a lot of excellent material on sexplainer.com
What do you love about this? What would you add or change?
What messages about pleasure did you receive growing up? What impact did that have on you?
Thanks so much for your participation here which is co-creating a safe space for us to explore, learn and connect.

Northwell Northern Westchester Hospital (NWH) and Northwell Phelps Hospital have received an ‘A’ – the highest rating – for hospital safety from The Leapfrog Group, a national nonprofit organization committed to quality and safety in American health care. This recognition demonstrates the hospitals’ commitment to keeping patients safe from preventable harm and medical errors.
“An ‘A’ grade from Leapfrog not only demonstrates our commitment to patient safety but also recognizes the top-tier talent and culture of continuous innovation at both Northern Westchester and Phelps,” said Kevin Beiner, president of Northwell Health’s Western Market. “This recognition reflects the dedication of our teams at Northern Westchester and Phelps hospitals in delivering exceptional care, optimizing health outcomes and ensuring a safe environment for our patients.”
The Leapfrog Group assigns grades to U.S. hospitals twice yearly based on up to 30 safety measures, including preventable errors, injuries, and infections. Grades A, B, C, D, or F are determined by a scoring algorithm using survey data and publicly available information. Nearly 3,000 general acute-care hospitals receive these grades, helping patients assess each facility’s safety.
Leapfrog’s Hospital Safety Guide is the only rating program focused solely on preventable medical errors, infections and injuries that kill more than 500 patients a day in the United States. Leapfrog’s goal is to publicly report the patient safety and quality information it gathers to benefit consumers, purchasers and referring physicians to assist them in deciding where to seek care and direct patients.
Nine other Northwell hospitals also received an ‘A’ in the fall 2024 Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade report.

Cancun, Q.R. — The Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) and the National Tourism Promotion Fund (Fonatur) have signed an agreement to draw up a collaboration route in order to modernize and adapt the electrical networks that will supply the electrical energy necessary for the railway infrastructure of the Maya Train in the southeast.
Rogelio Jiménez Pons, Director of Fonatur and Manuel Bartlett Díaz, General Director of the CFE, finalized the collaboration agreement with which they will implement the project’s electrification strategy. In adherence to the commitment of the Government of Mexico regarding protection of the environment, Fonatur modified the Maya Train project so that 40 percent of the route will operate on electrical energy.
“I am pleased that this agreement with the CFE has been finalized. I am sure that working hand-in-hand, the Maya Train could be an avant-garde technology project. In addition, it will be able to demonstrate that with the electrification of 40 percent of its route, large-scale work can be carried out in the country that fulfill the responsibility of governments to be more environmentally friendly,” said Jiménez Pons.
The CFE will provide its experience and technical and human capacity to carry out the engineering, supervision and construction work of the electrical infrastructure in the states of Yucatán, Campeche, Quintana Roo, Tabasco and Chiapas, while Fonatur will provide the resources, as well as the facilities and information for the development of the project.
CFE Distribución, CFE Transmission and CFE Basic Supply, Subsidiary Productive Companies of the CFE, will participate in the planning, development, implementation, installation and operation of the electrical infrastructure for the Tren Maya.
In their statement, the agencies explained that the sections corresponding to the Mérida-Cancún-Chetumal route will be electrified. This represents 680 kilometers of route, including double lanes for multiple services.
The design for these sections with the expected higher demand, was modified to incorporate electric traction in the rolling stock and in the railway infrastructure. For the rest of the route, there is the possibility of electrifying in the future, however, according to the original project, the remaining 60 percent of the section will be powered by diesel. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

About 16 percent of cash advance customers report with the loans for crisis or unforeseen costs, while 69 % report borrowing to cover for recurring expenses.
Medical debts could end up in either category, such as for instance whenever individuals are up against unforeseen economic shocks (as an example, an emergency division see) or when they’re balancing recurring medical costs (for instance, for prescriptions) with contending needs like housing and meals.
There was evidence that is early expansions of eligibility for Medicaid could be an important policy lever for enhancing the monetary security of low-income People in the us. 1 , 3 The https://badcreditloanshelp.net/payday-loans-ia/chariton/ Oregon wellness Insurance Experiment discovered that Medicaid paid off economic stress and enhanced the credit results of low-income adults, whom experienced less delinquencies in medical bills and smaller amounts of medical financial obligation. Catastrophic medical obligation, understood to be surpassing 30 % of yearly earnings, had been very nearly totally eradicated. 15 Other research reports have verified that Medicaid expansion improves fico scores and may also reduce prices of bankruptcy. 6 In specific, the Massachusetts medical care reform, which expanded protection in means much like the ACA, resulted in a decline in bankruptcies and a noticable difference in fico scores. 4 heading back further, the Medicaid expansions associated with 1990s were proven to reduce the threat of bankruptcy. 3
The fate of existing and future Medicaid expansions happens to be ambiguous, as Congress and President Donald Trump continue steadily to think about repealing and changing the ACA. As national and state health policy enter a fresh period of flux, it is advisable to have a diverse empirical knowledge of the expense and great things about supplying Medicaid to low-income adults—especially populations that historically haven’t been qualified to receive Medicaid.
This tested the validity of our presumption that payday borrowing could have had trends that are similar expansion and nonexpansion counties if none regarding the counties had expanded Medicaid.
We examined the connection between Medicaid protection and borrowing that is risky their state of Ca, that has been an earlier adopter of Medicaid expansion through the ACA. Particularly, we compared payday financing in Ca counties that expanded Medicaid prior to the ACA’s 2014 expansion to financing in counties through the united states of america (including four in Ca) which had maybe perhaps not yet expanded Medicaid.
For both our main and secondary results, we utilized a typical difference-in-differences analysis of county-month results that covered approximately twenty-four months before and twenty-four months following the 2011–2012 Ca Medicaid expansions. As noted above, we compared 43 Ca expansion that is early to 924 nonexpansion counties (like the 4 mentioned before nonexpansion Ca counties) into the nationwide information set, with standard mistakes clustered during the county degree. We stratified our findings because of the chronilogical age of the borrower—focusing on individuals more youthful than age sixty-five, who does have been almost certainly become suffering from Medicaid expansion. As a sensitiveness test (see Appendix display A7), 16 we examined borrowers avove the age of age sixty-five and utilized a triple-differences approach during the level that is county-month-age.
To exclude preexisting that is systemic trends that may have undermined our difference-in-differences approach, we estimated an “event study” regression associated with aftereffect of Medicaid expansion regarding the amount of loans. The regression included a hard and fast impact for almost any county, a hard and fast impact for on a monthly basis, and indicators for four six-month periods before Medicaid expansion and three six-month durations after expansion (see Appendix Exhibit A8). 16 | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
It's Not About Me, It's About You...
Hey, thanks for stopping by. I'm Robby Miles, and I want to help you streamline your business.
You probably know the feeling of being overwhelmed with too much on your plate. Or maybe you think you're too busy or tired to be present because there's just one more thing you need to check off before the work is done.
If you’re like many of the people I've worked with, you’ve experienced too many nights laying in bed wondering if there is an easier way to manage your business so you can focus on doing the work you love.
Constant deadlines, busyness, and distractions keep us from focusing on what will move the business forward if, heaven forbid, something happened to us and we weren't able to work. That's why I share simple, practical strategies and systems you can use right away to meet your deadlines early, claim victory over distraction, create focus, and automate your business for the long game.
If you're ready to work ON your business not IN your business, you’re in the right place.
My goal is to help busy online entrepreneurs free up time to work ON their business not IN their business as they scale beyond one million dollars.
A Little About Me:
I’m married with five kids (plus one more on the way), and they keep me pretty busy (in a good way). But my family is the reason I do what I do, and why I focus on productivity and systems that work in the real world.
I've been too busy before...
When I was in graduate school, I worked full time and our second son was a newborn.
When I was teaching Advanced Placement courses at one of the top-ranked high schools in the US, I joined the Army National Guard and went through Officer Candidate School eventually becoming an Executive Officer for a logistics company. This is when my daughters were born.
And while I was doing all those things I was running an online business helping busy entrepreneurs manage operations, automate sales, and provide better customer experience. When I started doing this full time my third son was born.
Tight schedules and deadlines have always been a part of life and are a part of any business. But, that’s where planning and systems come into play.
Many business owners have a vision, but lack the desire to get into the nitty-gritty details and manage unwieldy projects. That’s where I thrive. I’ve helped several business owners go from frantic and barely meeting deadlines, to finally being ahead of schedule with a clear game plan.
I want that same freedom for you.
So, subscribe for updates, and I'll help you live up to the expectations you set for yourself as a business owner and create systems to keep you going until you can hire an operations manager.
P.S. This site wouldn't be complete without me sharing photos of my incredible family. What can I say...I'm a proud dad. My wife Tara and I live in beautiful North Idaho with our three sons and two daughters. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

In late January, I was given the opportunity to work as a "Design Team Intern" for the Learning Games Network, a group of developers creating games at the University of Wisconsin. Since then, I've been responsible for a large amount of programming as well as designing sound effects and music on the team's pilot project, Virulent.
So, what is Virulent?
In my humble words, Virulent is an action-strategy game intended to teach Systems Biology to middle school and high school students, specifically in the cycle of viral infection and reproduction.

The Safety Harbor City Commission meets for its bi-monthly meeting tonight at 7:30 at City Hall, with just a small number of items on the agenda.
But prior to that, the commission will convene for a special tree ordinance workshop at 6:30 p.m.
The purpose of the workshop is to protect the city’s tree canopy from unwanted removal by developing a local tree ordinance to include Grand trees and lot canopies, according to an earlier workshop held to establish goals for and directions for the community in 2014 and beyond.
Safety Harbor’s current tree ordinance provides protection for grand trees, i.e. trees of a certain size, species and condition that cannot be removed or trimmed without applying for a permit from the City.
But many residents and officials have expressed a desire to expand the tree ordinance to prevent the removal/trimming of trees that do not fall under the “Grand tree” status and to increase the amount of fines imposed on those who do violate the code.
“What we’re hoping for is rewriting Safety Harbor’s tree ordinance so it’s more conducive to the trees and not just business and property owners,” Laura Dent, who hosts walking tours in town and has been holding “Save The Trees” demonstrations the past few weeks, recently told Safety Harbor Connect.
“Just because a tree doesn’t meet the Grand tree ordinance people can cut it down, which to me is not fair,” she added. “If this continues, Safety Harbor is going to become another paved over, cookie-cutter community.”
Another big proponent of the expanded tree ordinance is Mayor Andy Steingold.
During his campaign and ever since he was reelected in March, Steingold has been touting his desire to expand the ordinance, mentioning the issue several times in various meetings and workshops.
“I’d like to see more greenspace and have developers replant trees, not bushes,” he told Safety Harbor Connect back in January.
“I think the city loses its identity as these trees are pulled, whether they’re preserved trees or not.”
The Safety Harbor City Commission meets at City Hall, located at 750 Main Street in downtown Safety Harbor. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
On May 8, the library welcomed our third author of the year. Brandy Colbert who wrote The Only Black Girls in Town and many other books, visited the fifth grade via Zoom. The Only Black Girls in Town was a Saint Ann’s Mock Newbery finalist this year, and was read aloud to every fifth grade library class, so students arrived with excitement and with questions. Colbert showed images from books she wrote in elementary school and shared which of her favorite reads from childhood hold up today (Judy Blume and Beverly Cleary: still great!). Colbert talked about the importance of seeing yourself reflected in literature and answered questions about topics ranging from ice cream flavors to Black Lives Matter. A wonderful visit!
On April 7, a Zoom room full of cheering fourth and fifth graders welcomed Jerry Craft, author of the graphic novels New Kid and Class Act, for a virtual visit to the Annie Bosworth Library. As a full-division activity, the entire group had read New Kid, which last year became the first graphic novel ever to win the prestigious Newbery Medal. Students kept the author overtime with accolades, questions, and comments about the book, which tells the story of a Black seventh grade boy navigating his first year at a new, mostly-white private school in New York. Craft told the group that the book was inspired by his own and his children’s experiences, saying, “I make books I wish I’d had as a kid.”
Craft’s appearance was the library’s second author visit of the year. In January, author-illustrator Robin Ha Zoomed in for a period to talk to the Upper Middle School about her graphic memoir, Almost American Girl. The book, at once humorous and intense, begins when Ha is 14 and her mother announces that they’ll be leaving their home in Seoul, South Korea, for a vacation in Huntsville, Alabama. Soon her mother is remarried, the visit turns permanent, and Ha must adjust to a new language, a new school, and new relatives. Enthusiastic students peppered Ha with fantastic questions about her drawing style, her career, and her life story. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Divine Mercy study will examine aspects of historical and political events, biblical prophecies, lives of Saints, and the timing of Pope John Paul II’s declaration that “now is the time of God’s Mercy”. We will draw from Scripture, Church teachings, and the Diary of St. Faustina to reveal what is at the heart of Divine Mercy. God offers us the overflowing love from the Holy Trinity. We will come to a better understanding of why God has to be Trinitarian and that mercy is the highest form of love. We will analyze the deeper meaning of the Divine Mercy image and learn how sin interrupts our own “image and likeness” to God. Divine Mercy’s relevance to our daily life will become clear as we find new ways to more fully respond to the Merciful love of God. All of our relationships will benefit from this discovery as we learn to accept it and imitate it.

The ironies and contradictions in Passing, a 2021 Netflix film based on the 1929 novel by Nella Larsen, are apparent from the outset.
The story leans into its internal conflict, the movie’s trailer stating that “nothing is black and white.” This, of course, used to advertise a black-and-white film about the Black and white worlds — racial, that is — of 1920s New York.
The story begins at an upscale hotel restaurant, where Irene Redfield (Tessa Thompson) takes refuge from the hot city streets. There, she runs into childhood friend Clare (Kendry) Bellew, played by Ruth Negga. Both are Black women “passing” as white in the hotel, and when Clare invites Irene back to her room to catch up, it becomes clear that Clare’s passing extends beyond the convenience of accessing a fancy tea room. She is married to a wealthy, racist white man who does not know of her true identity. In contrast, Irene lives a comfortably middle-class life in Harlem with her Black husband (a doctor) and their two sons.
As the childhood friends reconnect, a mutual obsession with one another’s lifestyles begins to grow. Clare attends Harlem social events and forms bonds with Irene’s friends and family. Irene must confront her own feelings about race, wondering aloud what a white person — or someone passing as white — could want with her inner circle, all the while fighting with her husband as he attempts to educate their young children about the lynchings happening across the country.
Tensions culminate when Irene asks Clare what she would do if her husband learned of her true racial background. Clare replies, sure and chipper, that she would simply move to Harlem and be the person she wants to be. When Clare’s husband does discover the truth, Irene’s true feelings are (possibly) shown as well, depending on one’s interpretation of the story’s final scene.
Passing was filmed entirely in monochrome on a 4:3 aspect ratio, creating a vintage, elegant and timeless look. The music of 1920s Harlem provides an understated and era-appropriate soundtrack, adding audible color to scene changes and conversations in the street alike.
Foreshadowing is rich throughout Passing, particularly in giving viewers a sense that things can only end badly as the tension builds in volume and velocity throughout the film. Thompson does a particularly good job in her role as the mother and wife who, thanks to the reintroduction of her friend, begins to teeter on the edge of her steadfast, signature grace. The agent for that change is Clare, played beautifully and chaotically by Negga. Passing is the directorial debut of Rebecca Hall, who excels in bringing Larsen’s story to the screen.
By the end, the figurative black-and-white of Passing is muddled in the mind of the viewer, burned into memory in literal black-and-white contrast. We can make assumptions about the story’s abrupt end, try to find the culprit and reason away the ache in the pit of our stomachs, but, ultimately, Passing has achieved its ultimate message: Good and evil, truth and deceit, love and hate — it’s all gray.

Luxurious bath experiences are not complete without the perfect bathtub faucet to complement the ambiance of your bathroom. A bathtub faucet is not just a practical necessity but also a stylish statement piece that can elevate the overall look and feel of your bathing space. Whether you are remodeling your bathroom or simply upgrading your existing bathtub faucet, understanding the different types, features, and benefits of these fixtures is crucial in making an informed decision that aligns with your needs and preferences. When it comes to choosing a bathtub faucet, there are various factors to consider such as design, functionality, material, and installation requirements. With a wide range of options available in the market, selecting the right bathtub faucet can be a daunting task. This comprehensive guide aims to familiarize you with the world of bathtub faucets, providing insights and information to help you make the best choice for your home.
When choosing a bathtub faucet, consider the overall style and aesthetic of your bathroom. Whether your bathroom features a modern, traditional, or eclectic design, selecting a faucet that complements the existing decor will create a cohesive and harmonious look. Pay attention to details such as finishes, shapes, and textures to ensure your new faucet seamlessly integrates with the rest of the space.
Water conservation is an important consideration when selecting a bathtub faucet. Look for faucets that are designed with water-saving features such as aerators or flow restrictors to reduce water consumption without compromising on performance. Opting for an eco-friendly faucet not only helps the environment but also allows you to save on water bills in the long run.
Before purchasing a bathtub faucet, inquire about the manufacturer’s warranty and customer service policies. A reputable brand will offer a warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship, providing you with peace of mind and assurance of product quality. Additionally, reliable customer service ensures that any inquiries or issues you may encounter post-purchase are addressed promptly and professionally.
When shopping for a bathtub faucet, physically interact with the display models to test the functionality and operation. Evaluate the smoothness of the handles, the ease of adjusting water temperature, and the overall user experience. Pay attention to details such as water flow, spout reach, and diverter options to ensure that the faucet meets your practical needs and preferences.
Establish a budget range for your bathtub faucet purchase, taking into account factors such as quality, features, and design. While luxury faucets may come with a higher price tag, there are also affordable options that offer durability and style. Consider your priorities and make an investment that aligns with your budget without compromising on quality or aesthetics.
In conclusion, selecting the perfect bathtub faucet is a decision that goes beyond functionality—it is an opportunity to enhance your bathing environment and elevate the overall look of your bathroom. By exploring the various types, features, and benefits of bathtub faucets, you can make an informed choice that suits your lifestyle and preferences. Whether you opt for a sleek wall-mounted faucet, a classic deck-mounted faucet, or a statement-making freestanding faucet, the right fixture will transform your bathing space into a sanctuary of comfort and style. Take your time to research, compare options, and envision how your chosen faucet will complement your bathroom decor, ensuring a seamless and delightful bathing experience every time you turn on the water. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
WATCH: Shea Patterson, Nico Collins flashing mid-season form with deep connection in camp
It sure looks like this duo is ready for a big year in Ann Arbor.
Michigan’s offense is returning a lot of talent and depth throughout. Among those returners is starting quarterback Shea Patterson and wide receiver Nico Collins.
Patterson shined in 2018 with 2,600 yards passing and 22 TDs to just 7 interceptions. His efficiency was a big reason for the Wolverines’ success, and he will get to work with one of his top returning targets this year in Collins.
Collins led the team with 632 receiving yards last year while finishing second in catches and receiving touchdowns. After making a huge jump from his freshman to sophomore seasons, expectations are rising that Collins could make an even bigger leap as a junior.
The duo could be downright lethal in 2019, and they showed a bit of their easy rhythm on this play:

Hopefully, the Wolverines see a lot more of this throughout the year. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Al-Hazimi Historical Mosque is a historical mosque situated northeast of the town of Layla, al-Aflaj Governorate, Riyadh Province. It is located three hundred km south of Riyadh City, the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
History of al-Hazimi Historical Mosque
Al-Hazimi Historical Mosque is one of the oldest heritage mosques in the ancient city of Layla. It was built more than one hundred years ago with the cooperation of the town residents during that period.
Back then, the mosque was a cultural and scientific beacon for the residents of the town and neighboring areas. It was also a place of prayer and worship. Sessions and conferences were offered at the mosque, where town residents were taught the Noble Quran and writing.
Area of al-Hazimi Historical Mosque
Al-Hazimi Historical Mosque is undergoing development as part of the second phase of the Prince Mohammed Bin Salman Project for the Development of Historical Mosques. Before development, it covered an area of 355.25 m. The area will increase to 361.2 m. Its capacity of 110 worshipers will remain the same. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
In a world dominated by ever-changing fashion trends, it's easy to get caught up in the rush to keep up. Yet, true style isn't about following every trend—it's about embracing what makes you unique. As Yves Saint Laurent once wisely said, "Fashions fade, style is eternal."
1. Reflect on Your Preferences: Consider the colors, patterns, and silhouettes that resonate with you. What makes you feel most like yourself?
2. Experiment with Different Looks: Don't be afraid to mix and match styles to create something uniquely yours. Experimentation is key to finding what works best for you.
3. Quality Over Quantity: Invest in timeless pieces that can be styled in various ways and will stand the test of time. Quality clothing lasts longer and often feels better on your skin.
4. Be Inspired, Not Dictated: While it's great to draw inspiration from fashion icons and current trends, let them guide rather than dictate your choices. Adapt trends to fit your personal aesthetic.
5. Confidence Is Key: The most stylish individuals exude confidence in what they wear. Embrace your choices wholeheartedly—they reflect your individuality.

An effective method of controlling the density of ZnO nanopillars (ZnO-NPs) by using the self-assembled silver nanoislands as the growth catalyst is demonstrated. We were able to vary the density of the ZnO-NPs to within the range of ∼10-30 μm -2 by properly manipulating the size distribution of the silver nanoislands partially covering the Si substrates. Continuous silver film can also be used as the catalyst to facilitate the growth of ZnO islands and pillars on Si substrates, albeit with much less control of the resultant density and morphological appearances. The field-emission measurements indicate that the performance of field emission for ZnO-NPs can be improved markedly by reducing the density of the ZnO-NPs. The turn-on field of the low-density ZnO-NPs was as low as 2.39 V/μm with a corresponding current density of 10 μA/cm 2 and a field enhancement factor (β value) of ∼3500. The enhancement of field-emission characteristics is attributed to the much reduced field screen effect by properly controlled density of the ZnO-NPs. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The Atlantic Ocean is the 2nd largest among the five major oceans of the Earth. It is surrounded by Europe, Africa, South America, and North America. The ocean takes up approximately 20% of Earth’s surface area. There are many features, such as Gulf Stream, in this ocean that impact the weather of the US and Europe.
The ocean was first named by Greeks as “Atlantikos”, which means “Sea of Atlas”. The word “Atlantic” is derived from that Greek name. Atlas is one of the Greek gods, which they believe to be the god of astronomy and navigation. Furthermore, the Atlantic Ocean was considered to be the end of our Earth, which means a ship will fall into dark space if it crossed the edge of the ocean.
Characteristics of Atlantic Ocean
Temperature and Water Circulations
The surface temperature of the Atlantic Ocean changes between -2 °C to 30 °C along the latitude. The ocean is cold in Polar Regions and hot in equatorial region. The Atlantic Ocean is divided into two parts; North Atlantic and South Atlantic Ocean. Water currents in North Atlantic Ocean move in the clockwise direction, whereas, South Atlantic Ocean currents move in the anti-clockwise direction.
The Atlantic Ocean is the saltiest of all the five Oceans. The quantity of salt in the ocean is around 3.7% by mass, which varies along latitude and also depends on season. The parts of the Atlantic Ocean which receive heavy rainfall have lower salinity as compared to low rainfall and high evaporations parts. Furthermore, when the ice melts in the Atlantic Ocean during summer, its salinity decrease.
Sinking of Titanic in the Atlantic Ocean
Titanic is one of the most famous ships in the history of mankind. It was the state-of-the-art passenger voyage ship of its time. Titanic is mostly known for its deadly disaster that happened on 15 April 1912. On that day, the ship got an accident with an iceberg which resulted in the death of 1,500 human lives. The accident occurred in the Atlantic Ocean during the Titanic’s voyage from Southampton to New York City. The wreckage of the Titanic was first discovered in 1985 at the depth of 4 kilometers.
Bermuda Triangle in the Atlantic Ocean
Bermuda Triangle, also known as Devil’s Triangle, is famous for engulfing ships and aircraft. There have been several events in which ships and aircraft that crossed Bermuda Triangle disappeared. The Bermuda Triangle is the region located in the Atlantic Ocean within three points, which are Bermuda Island, Miami City, and Puerto Rico Island.
Bermuda Triangle is not a scary place in reality. Many boats and planes cross Bermuda Triangle on daily basis. However, the weather sometimes changes suddenly in Bermuda Triangle which may have caused airplane and ships accidents. Furthermore, the deepest place in the Atlantic Ocean, the Milwaukee Depth, is also located within Bermuda Triangle. The Milwaukee Depth is located near Puerto Rico Island and is nearly 27,493 feet (8,380 meters) deep.
- The Sargasso Sea is located within the Atlantic Ocean and is the only sea that is not enclosed by any land. It is enclosed by four water currents in the Atlantic Ocean.
- The Sargasso Sea looks different from its surroundings due to the presence of floating brown-colored Sargassum seaweed.
- The Atlantic Ocean is connected with the Pacific Ocean with a manmade passage called Panama Canal. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The probability of someone cheating during the course of a relationship varies between 40 and 76 percent. “It’s very high,” says Geneviève Beaulieu-Pelletier, PhD student at the Université de Montréal’s Department of Psychology.
“These numbers indicate that even if we get married with the best of intentions things don’t always turn out the way we plan. What interests me about infidelity is why people are willing to conduct themselves in ways that could be very damaging to them and to their relationship.”
The student wanted to know if the type of commitment a person has with his or her loved ones is correlated to the desire of having extra-marital affairs. “The emotional attachment we have with others is modeled on the type of parenting received during childhood,” she says.
According to psychologists, people with avoidant attachment styles are individuals uncomfortable with intimacy and are therefore more likely to multiply sexual encounters and cheat. But this has never been proved scientifically, which is what Beaulieu-Pelletier attempted to do in a series of four studies.
The first study was conducted on 145 students with an average age of 23. Some 68 percent had thought about cheating and 41 percent had actually cheated. Sexual satisfaction aside, the results indicated a strong correlation between infidelity and people with an avoidant attachment style.
The second study was conducted on 270 adults with an average age of 27. About 54 percent had thought about cheating and 39 percent had actually cheated. But the correlation is the same: people with an avoidant attachment style are more likely to cheat.
“Infidelity could be a regulatory emotional strategy used by people with an avoidant attachment style. The act of cheating helps them avoid commitment phobia, distances them from their partner, and helps them keep their space and freedom.”
Both these studies were followed up by two other studies that asked about the motives for infidelity. The will to distance themselves from commitment and their partner was the number one reason cited.
Her studies revealed no differences between men and women. Just as many men and women had an avoidant attachment style and the correlation with infidelity is just as strong on both sides. “Contrary to popular belief, infidelity isn’t more prevalent in men,” she says. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The oscillatory diameter of the charged jet during the bubble electrospinning results in beads on the obtained nanofibers. We demonstrate that the applied voltage and the initial flow rate of the jet are the crucial parameters that are necessary to control morphology of the nanofibers. We also find that there is a criterion for production of smooth nanofibers without beads. The theory developed in this paper can be extended to the classical electrospinning and the blown bubble-spinning. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The TILL offers students enrolled in Canadian, South African, and German universities the opportunity to deepen their intercultural skills and provides an introduction to effectively apply transdisciplinary collaboration to tackle interconnected, wicked sustainability challenges. Under the mentorship of applied researchers and community partners, the international student teams will develop a systematic understanding of how ‘invasive species’ or ‘displaced relatives’ affect the advancement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through a creative strategy design, student teams will address local issues that are aligned with the SDGs and the MABR’s research and development needs. This experiential learning opportunity introduces students to collaboration, participatory research, and sustainability in the MABR while allowing participants to network with students and mentors from other countries and cultural contexts. The TILL is designed to create a community of practice in which participants share a common passion and desire to learn from one another. We seek a practice built on respect and reciprocity that is based on curiosity, collaboration, connection, and accountability.

When it comes to a shop with an affordable price and variety of things, “Albeli” is the shop that strikes my mind. Currently, Albeli is owned by Sanjay, the shop owner. It was started 35 years ago by his father, Mr. Gauhar Lal. It is located on City palace road, Udaipur, Rajasthan.
Mr. Gauhar Lal learned handicrafts from Gujarat and came to Udaipur. He opened Albeli in old Udaipur near City Palace to attract the tourist that visited there. This shop mainly contains textile materials which are very popular these days. People from different countries stay there and adore the beauty of handicrafts. There is an old saying, ” Sometimes hard work does not work, but smart work does’ ‘ and Gauhar Lal is the best example of this. He achieved success from his intelligence and hard work. Now his son is taking the family business to new horizons. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
As Australia burns, I’m staying clear of sunsets and sunrises and anything red, and choosing a cool water photo for this post, although it has nothing to do with what I have to say.
This website has been going since 2007 and is, like me, getting on. Worse than me, it is starting to malfunction. It needs to be totally renewed, so in the interim there will be interruptions and the end result will look different. A clever and very kind friend, Al, is doing this work for me.

The world of fashion is constantly evolving, driven by technological advancements that challenge traditional practices. With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) in various industries, including creative fields, a pertinent question emerges: Will fashion designers be replaced by AI? In this blog, we delve into the dynamic relationship between fashion and AI, examining both the potential benefits and limitations of AI in the realm of design.
The Intersection of Fashion and AI
Artificial intelligence has made significant strides in fields like data analysis, automation, and even creative tasks. In fashion, AI is being harnessed for various purposes, such as trend prediction, fabric innovation, and personalized shopping experiences. Machine learning algorithms can analyze massive amounts of data to identify emerging trends, consumer preferences, and even predict the success of certain designs in the market.
AI as a Collaborative Tool
Rather than an outright replacement, AI is more likely to serve as a powerful tool that complements the creative process of fashion designers. AI algorithms can assist designers by generating design ideas, suggesting color palettes, and even simulating fabric textures. This collaboration allows designers to explore new avenues and streamline certain aspects of their work, ultimately enhancing their creative output.
Efficiency and Innovation
AI-driven tools can significantly improve the efficiency of design processes. For instance, 3D modeling and virtual prototyping enabled by AI can expedite the design-to-production timeline, minimizing material waste and costs. Moreover, AI can facilitate experimentation with unconventional materials and designs that may have been overlooked otherwise, leading to innovative and sustainable fashion solutions.
Preservation of Human Creativity
While AI can generate ideas based on data analysis, it lacks the innate human creativity, emotional depth, and cultural understanding that designers bring to their work. Fashion is not just about aesthetics; it’s about storytelling, cultural expression, and pushing the boundaries of imagination. Human designers infuse their work with personal narratives, emotions, and cultural nuances that resonate with consumers on a deeper level.
The Human Touch and Imperfection
Fashion is an art form that embraces imperfections, quirks, and unique perspectives. These qualities are integral to the human experience and can’t be fully replicated by AI. The touch of a skilled designer can bring out the essence of a design, transforming it from a concept into a piece of wearable art that resonates with individuals.
Collaboration Over Replacement
In the grand tapestry of fashion’s future, AI is not set to replace fashion designers but rather to collaborate with them. The fashion industry thrives on the synergy between technology and creativity. AI can streamline processes, enhance efficiency, and offer insights, allowing designers to focus more on the artistic and emotional aspects of their work. By embracing AI as a tool rather than a replacement, fashion designers can harness its potential to create innovative, sustainable, and deeply resonant designs that captivate audiences worldwide. The future of fashion lies in the harmonious coexistence of human ingenuity and technological progress. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Chris Hemsworth is interested in continuing to receive millions of dollars to portray sexy thunder god Thor in the Marvel Cinematic universe, a shocking new interview reveals. Hemsworth was speaking to IGN after wrapping filming on Avengers 4when he dropped the bombshell revelation.
“I’ve just, literally two days ago, finished Avengers 4 and that’s my contract – my preexisting contract is done now, so it’s kind of like, ‘Wow, that’s it.’ Two or three films ago I was like, ‘Okay, a couple more.’ I was enjoying it but I was like… I felt a little restricted,” Hemsworth said, revealing that he felt about Thor: The Dark Worldthe same way the rest of us did.
However, after Thor: Ragnarok and the two upcoming Avengers films, Hemsworth found himself reinvigorated, the same way we do every time we watch his shirtless scene from the first movie.
“If I had the opportunity to [play Thor] again, I think I’d love to,” Hemsworth said. “I also think there’s an appetite for it now, or there’s a far greater range of possibilities of where he can go now, what he can do, just because we’ve kind of broken the mold a bit.”
It’s no secret around here that I adored Thor: Ragnarok and thought it really captured an essential, delightful Thor-ness while still strongly reflecting director Taika Waititi’s voice. However, Hemsworth’s comments about the last two Avengers films do have me quite intrigued. The Russo Brothers similarly hinted at some big changes for Thor in a recent interview, and it was along the same lines of “evolv[ing]” and changing. Asked which character they were “most excited about revealing” in Infinity War, Anthony Russo said, “I think Thor … he’s gone through a radical transformation, and he’s moving forward in a way where he can never go back. And that’s always a fun place to be with a character as a storyteller.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
In honor of Jerry Garcia’s birthday, The Daily Beast grades perhaps the most underrated aspect of the Grateful Dead’s legacy: their studio albums.
When a casual music listener thinks of the Grateful Dead, they likely think of three things: the marathon live shows; the long and winding improvisations (sigh—yes, “jamming”) that defined those performances; and the cult-like fanbase of stoners, spinners, and tapers who traveled all over the country to take part in those communal concerts.
What they do not think of, however, are the Grateful Dead’s studio albums.
After all, at one time or another, the band has gone on-record saying nearly each studio effort was a disappointment or failed to capture the intensity of their live performances.
Yet while the Dead have become associated with the amorphous, occasional eyeroll-inducing genre of “jam bands”—often synonymous with hacky-sack-toeing frat-house hippies and self-indulgent improvisational Americana-adjacent acts—they were actually just the quintessential American rock ‘n’ roll band.
There are many obstacles (mostly imaginary) to the average person listening to the Dead, but once you get it, you truly get it: The Dead were among the greatest rock, folk, and country-rock songwriters of the 20th century. Their studio albums, stripped of the improvisations and sonic explorations featured in their live performances, showcase the incredible songwriting of the Jerry Garcia/Robert Hunter and Bob Weir/John Perry Barlow partnerships.
Part of what makes a classically great songwriter immediately identifiable is the ease with which their songs can be covered or reworked into a different tempo, swing, or genre altogether. Bob Dylan first comes to mind here, but the 2016 tribute album Day of the Dead—featuring indie luminaries like The National, The War on Drugs, and The Flaming Lips—demonstrated just how remarkable the Dead’s songs were.
— Advertisement —
We are not here to debate the Dead’s greatest album, live or otherwise (that would be Live/Dead); or the best live version of any song like, say, “Dark Star” (that would be 2/18/1971 at the Capitol Theater); or their greatest set ever (undecided, but I might venture to say 8/27/1972 at the County Fairgrounds in Veneta, Oregon).
As such, this list solely focuses on the albums featuring original studio recordings—i.e., albums like Europe ’72 are not included, despite the heavy use of studio overdubs and mixing. (Yes, it’s true that there are probably no studio-album songs that weren’t done better live, but just play along with the concept here.)
Caveat emptor: Taste is subjective, and so this ranking might look differently if done expressly based on my personal tastes; instead, as with my other music lists, I’ve tried to rank based on a combination of my own views plus each album’s historical significance, critical consensus, etc. Nevertheless, please feel free to yell at me on social media and/or compare this list to the rather engrossing one recently done by BrooklynVegan.
13. Shakedown Street (1978)
Widely regarded as the Dead’s most reviled studio album, Shakedown Street has the infamous label of being “Disco Dead.” The late ’70s saw a mad rush for great American rock artists to stay relevant amid the commercial dominance of disco and airy soft rock. As the title track’s porn-groove cheesiness made quite apparent, instead of embracing their perpetual outsider status, the Dead opted for light and bouncy. The result: Fans and critics alike dismissed the album as supremely out of touch.
Drummer Mickey Hart later admitted in reissue liner notes that the album was an open effort by both band and label for the Dead to sell out. “We failed miserably,” he joked.
But as with all the Dead’s more mediocre studio efforts, the great songs on this record became live staples, all without the slithery and misguided self-indulgence of their studio versions.
Essential tracks: “Fire on the Mountain,” “I Need a Miracle,” and, sure, the title track.

Latin music star Nicky Jam has just made a big splash when he announced that he would be withdrawing his support for former US President Donald Trump. Beloved by millions for his hits like “El Perdón” and “X,” Nicky Jam is not only a talented artist but also a powerful voice in the Latin community. With over 43 million followers on Instagram, his post took social media by storm, sparking heated discussions about his frustrations among the Puerto Rican community and his fans around the world.
Nicky Jam’s decision was motivated by his frustration with the way the Trump campaign treated Puerto Rico. As a son of Puerto Rico, Nicky Jam could not stand by while the place he calls “home” was not respected. In his lengthy and heartfelt post, he wrote: “As someone who is proud of his Puerto Rican roots, I cannot turn a blind eye to the way Puerto Rico is treated and the lack of real concern from a leader I once trusted.”
He also candidly said that, for him, Puerto Rico is not just a place on the map but also the soul and inspiration for many musical compositions. “I grew up surrounded by the culture, the rhythm, and the soul of Puerto Rico. When Puerto Rico is overlooked, it is like a part of me is hurt.” His frustration is not limited to politics but also about national pride and the desire for Puerto Ricans to be respected.
Nicky Jam once believed that, despite the controversies, Trump could bring about positive change. However, with what has happened, he realized that his hopes were misplaced. He added: “A leader must have a vision and a heart big enough to encompass the entire community. I used to believe that Trump could make a difference, but now I realize that my choice was a mistake.”
Reactions From Fans and Celebrities
Soon after Nicky Jam posted his post, his fan community exploded with thousands of comments expressing support, sympathy, and praise for his decision. Many other famous Latin artists also publicly expressed their agreement and thanked him for speaking out. Singer and actress Jennifer Lopez shared Nicky Jam’s post on her Instagram, writing: “This is a time for us to speak up and stand together for Puerto Rico. Thank you Nicky for being a voice for all of us.”
Many other Latin artists, from Bad Bunny to Daddy Yankee, did not hesitate to send their thanks to Nicky Jam. They said that his voice was not just his personal opinion but also the voice of millions of other Latinos who share the same sentiment. “Nicky Jam is one of the most influential artists among young Latinos, and his voice is iconic to millions,” one fan commented.
Comments from fans around the world also gave Nicky Jam strength. A fan from Mexico wrote: “Thank you for standing up for Puerto Rico and showing us that artists are human beings with heart and dignity.”
Nicky Jam did not stop at withdrawing his support for Trump, but pledged to continue to contribute and use his voice to create positive change for Puerto Rico. He shared that from now on, he will focus more on charity and social activities to help Puerto Rico recover, especially after the damage caused by Hurricane Maria.
He also emphasized: “I am not just a Puerto Rican, I am a part of this community. I have been loved and supported not only for my music but also for standing up for my fans. Puerto Rico is my home, and I will not let anyone disrespect or belittle it.”
The Trump campaign has yet to officially respond to Nicky Jam’s decision. However, the fact that a major star in the Latin community like Nicky Jam publicly withdrew his support could have a significant impact on Trump’s image among Latinos, especially those of Puerto Rican descent. This is not just a personal statement, but also reflects the growing frustration in the Latino community about the attention of political leaders to Puerto Rico.
As the election campaign becomes increasingly tense, Nicky Jam’s decision could prompt many others, especially Latino artists and activists, to stand up and express their views. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Be it learning a new language or developing web apps, it’s crucial to have a good development environment for every programmer. The web-based IDEs (Integrated Development Environments) are gaining enormous popularity among developers due to convenience, ease of use, and, of course, the advanced collaboration capabilities in real-time.
What is IDE? Integrated Development Environments (IDE) is a software application that provides basic tools required to write and test software into a single GUI (graphical user interface). This platform eliminates various hassles and allows the developers to start working on a project quickly. Right now there is numerous IDE software available online and many are suitable for coding in the cloud.
Raised €2.5M to expand open source community
The open-source solution recently raised $3M (approx €2.5M) seed funding, marking its first fundraise after bootstrapping. The €2.5M seed round was led by Speedinvest with participation from Crane Venture Partners and Vertex Ventures US. Alongside this, the company also announced the arrival of native GitLab integration with Gitpod.
Gitpod intends to use the funding to refine the platform for development environment automation, as well as to expand it’s open source community and relevant ecosystem partnerships.
Launch fresh dev environment with single click
Gitpod is an open source GitOps solution that leverages the version control system as the canonical source of truth to automate everything a developer needs to start coding. Instead of wasting time waiting for tools and bunch libraries to get installed, developers can now launch fresh cloud-based dev environments with one click directly from gitlab.com.
Also, it is going to be a part of GitLab 13.5, which will be released on October 22nd. Post the release, developers can connect their GitLab self-managed installation to gitpod.io through a new feature that allows developers to register additional Git providers.
With Gitpod’s integration into GitLab, code reviews, bug fixes, building new features, and exploring new projects becomes frictionless, while increasing development productivity, efficiency, and velocity.
250,000 registered developers, 100,000 organisations and more
Gitpod CEO Sven Effting, says, “We are currently helping the GitLab team to build a fully-automated Gitpod configuration for the GitLab source code. This makes contributing to the GitLab source code itself as easy as clicking a button. Once this configuration is merged, you will be able to just click on the Gitpod button of the GitLab repository, and everything will be set up for your first GitLab contribution.”
The German startup was founded by experienced developer tools experts that worked together for 10+ years creating programming languages and growing open source communities (Xtext, Theia). To date, the DevOps platform has 250,000 registered developers and is used by millions of developers across 100,000 organisations.

🇺🇸 Honoring the Sacrifice of Our Soldiers, Guided by God’s Blessings! 🙏🦅
On this sacred day, we come together as grateful Americans to pay tribute to the brave men and women who have selflessly served our nation. As we celebrate our independence, we solemnly acknowledge the tremendous sacrifices made by our soldiers in defense of our freedoms.
From the earliest battles fought for our independence to the ongoing commitment to safeguarding our liberties, our soldiers have answered the call of duty with unwavering dedication. They have borne the weight of service, leaving behind families and facing unimaginable challenges to protect our way of life.
In their valor and selflessness, we witness the embodiment of true heroism. Their sacrifice serves as a reminder that freedom comes at a great price. We owe a debt of gratitude to those who have laid down their lives, as well as to the courageous men and women who continue to serve, safeguarding our liberties with unwavering devotion.
In our reflections, we also acknowledge that the strength and resilience of our soldiers are often guided by a higher power. It is through the grace of God that they find solace, courage, and determination in the face of adversity. Their faith and reliance on divine guidance inspire us all.

I am a girl, and I have been out to clubs many times in my life.
I’ve seen firsthand the way that guys spend large amounts of money on drinks in order to impress girls. But even after spending all that money, nine times out of ten, they end up going home alone.
It’s a sad truth that so many guys think that buying drinks for a girl will make her like them. But the truth is that it doesn’t work that way.
A girl will not be impressed by a guy simply because he bought her a drink. In fact, it can often have the opposite effect. Buying a girl a drink can make her feel like she is being objectified and that the guy is just trying to buy her attention.
This is why it’s important for guys to understand that the key to impressing a girl isn’t about buying drinks or expensive gifts. It’s about making genuine connections and showing her that you are genuinely interested in getting to know her. A simple conversation can go a lot further than a drink ever could.
I also think it’s important for guys to understand that not all girls are out to be impressed by their money or lavish gifts. Many girls don’t want to be seen as objects and don’t want to be judged by how much money they have. Instead, they want to be judged by their personality and character.
So if you’re a guy who’s out at the club with the intention of impressing a girl, then you should focus on having meaningful conversations and getting to know her. Don’t make it all about buying drinks or giving her expensive gifts. Make it about getting to know her and making a genuine connection.
And if you’re a girl who’s out at the club, then don’t let yourself be taken advantage of by any guy who’s trying to buy your attention. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself and say no if a guy is trying to buy you drinks or give you expensive gifts. Don’t let yourself be taken advantage of by someone who is only interested in your money.
So next time you’re out at the club, remember that buying drinks isn’t the key to impressing a girl. It’s about making genuine connections and showing her that you are interested in getting to know her. And if a guy is trying to buy your attention, don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself and say no. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Mid-Autumn Festival, a cherished time for family reunions and moonlit celebrations, is steeped in myth and legend. These stories, passed down through generations, give the festival its deep sense of wonder and magic. Here are three of the most famous Mid-Autumn Festival myths that tell of love, sacrifice, and eternal tasks under the full moon.
1. Chang’e Flying to the Moon
Long ago, there were ten suns in the sky, scorching the earth and drying up the oceans. A hero named Hou Yi, known for his strength and skill with a divine bow, shot down nine of the suns, leaving just one to light the world. The last sun, terrified, promised to behave, and Hou Yi saved the world from disaster. Hou Yi’s wife, Chang’e, was deeply loved by him, and they lived happily together.
In admiration of Hou Yi’s heroism, the Queen Mother of the West gifted him an elixir of immortality, which would allow him to ascend to heaven and live forever. However, Hou Yi was reluctant to leave his beloved wife and entrusted the elixir to Chang’e for safekeeping. One fateful day, when Hou Yi was away hunting, his greedy apprentice, Feng Meng, broke into their home and demanded the elixir. To protect it, Chang’e swallowed the elixir herself, instantly rising up into the sky, light as a feather.
Heartbroken, Chang’e flew to the moon, the closest place to Earth, where she could still watch over her husband. Hou Yi, devastated by her sudden departure, chased after her but could never reach the moon. Every year on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, Hou Yi and the villagers would gaze at the moon, which shone especially bright and full, as if Chang’e were watching from above. This night became the Mid-Autumn Festival, a time to remember Chang’e and celebrate reunion.
2. The Jade Rabbit and the Moon
Another beloved Mid-Autumn myth tells of the Jade Rabbit, who became Chang’e’s companion in the moon palace. Legend says that a long time ago, a pair of rabbits had four daughters, all as white and clever as snow. One day, the Jade Emperor summoned the father rabbit to the heavens, where he saw the goddess Chang’e being led to her exile on the moon.
Moved by her loneliness and the injustice she had suffered, the rabbit wished to send one of his daughters to keep her company. Though saddened, the youngest daughter volunteered, understanding the importance of bringing comfort to Chang’e in her eternal solitude. Since then, the Jade Rabbit has lived on the moon with Chang’e, tirelessly preparing medicinal herbs, a symbol of loyalty, friendship, and selflessness.
3. Wu Gang Chopping the Laurel Tree
The final myth is that of Wu Gang, a man who endures eternal punishment in the moon palace. Wu Gang once aspired to become immortal and sought the teachings of a wise Taoist master. However, his arrogance and laziness led him to abandon his studies and disrespect his master, who eventually decided to teach him a hard lesson.
The master sent Wu Gang to the moon, where he was tasked with chopping down a massive laurel tree. But there was a catch—the tree magically healed itself with every strike. No matter how hard Wu Gang chopped, the tree would regenerate, leaving him with an endless, futile task. His story is a reminder of the consequences of impatience and arrogance, as he is bound to the moon, laboring forever under its silvery light.
The Myths and the Festival
These myths add layers of meaning to the Mid-Autumn Festival, intertwining love, sacrifice, and perseverance with the beauty of the full moon. As families gather to share mooncakes, gaze at the moon, and light lanterns, they also honor these timeless stories that connect past and present.
