It was at the beginning of the 1900s that the term shiseikan, the ‘view on death and life’, was devised in Japan and many people became interested in the discourses on it. In the three decades from 1900 to the outbreak of the Asia-Pacific War in 1931, discourses on death-and-life showed some level of deepening. The author throws light on why discourses on death-and-life had spread around 1900, and then refined by the educated intellectuals in the following decades. The feature of the novelist Shiga Naoya’s view on death-and-life is investigated. The process of Shiga Naoya himself overcoming serious crises of youth by squarely facing the guiding principle of his life and the problem of spiritual independence from his parents is described. Spiritual independence includes overcoming conflicts in human relations centring on one’s family and accompanying moral questions, and searching to find one’s proper position in relation to a lofty ideal and a transcendental dimension. In the process, the experience to attain a view on death-and-life and the creation of literary expressions to the view played a great role. It will be observed that views on death-and-life and their expressions have found suitable roles to play as elements for selfhood formation based on the inner selves of the modern intellectuals of Japan.

Polished Natural Garnet Crystal Chips - Average Size: 7mm Wine-colored garnet chips are one of the most popular varieties of polished garnets. The most common color of garnet is red, but garnets can also be found in various other colors, including pink, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown, and black. The different sizes and rich color of wine-colored garnets make them especially popular for use in jewelry. Approximate Chip Sizes: We make and carry many unique and one-of-a-kind items from around the world. Some may come with imperfections because they’re natural. Appearances of cracks and chips aren’t due to damage (unless otherwise specified in the description); they’re just another wonderful attribute created through the natural formation process. It’s important to choose the item that calls to you, which is why we take images/videos of the exact item you will receive; however, please note that differences in viewing devices mean that the item you receive may be slightly different in color from the picture. We do our best to make every description 100% accurate, and we’ll never knowingly sell anything mislabeled (heat-treated citrine sold as all-natural). We also combine shipping on multiple orders and refund any shipping fees over $1 not used.

This creature is endangered. Aerlo eggs have unique properties; one of the more dangerous properties is that, if you touch the egg with your bare skin, it'll freeze straight through most of the exposed skin. Depending on how long you held the egg, this freezing burn can rapidly travel to and through other human tissue. This is why these eggs require a unique extraction from the Egg Cave. If this egg gets too warm, it'll melt. So most Ark residents resort to putting Aerlo eggs in their freezers. Aerlo can only survive in exceptionally cold temperatures. Thus it is rare that Aerlo are found on Ark (considering it's a tropical island and all). Aerlo are amphibious creatures; to keep cool, they go straight down to the depths of the ocean. Aerlo will rarely surface in Ark Bay because they cannot physically withstand the warmth of tropical waters. In addition, Aerlo are very smart creatures who are very protective of their young. If you ever do see an Aerlo surface in Ark Bay, take it all in -- it doesn't happen frequently!

Healthcare providers, in particular, must prove that their organization and operational standards establish the proper quality and safety measures to meet strict regulation, reform and privacy requirements. However, even with “proper” protocols in place, most healthcare organizations often are unable to prove whether they have properly managed secure and protected information. Improper user account management can lead to breeches of security, fines, penalties, lack of trust from the community and failed audits. Hospitals and healthcare providers need to take the necessary measures to ensure sensitive information is not available to employees without proper access rights. For instance, former employees and contractors who are still able to access and use a former employer’s e-mail network because their user account has not been deactivated immediately upon their departure present a definite security risk.

Her Billionaire Husband Calm down, calm down… Veronica felt hostility from the Larsons. If she were to barge in right now, she would only shatter the peace between her and the family, and they would be even more tempted to kill her off. Given the power the Larson Family held, they wouldn’t break a sweat to take her out. Besides, with her adoptive parents still living, what were they supposed to do if anything were to happen to her? Wicked, how wicked they are! Veronica clenched her fists as her eyes reddened. Despite that, she took a deep breath and held her exasperation, turning around and descending the stairs. After remaining on the couch for a while, Rachel and Tiffany, too, had come downstairs. “Veronica, it’s impossible for us to give you 10 million, but after speaking with Dad, we decided this is the most we can give you. In exchange, surrender to us your takeout platform and take your foster parents out of Bloomstead along with you.” Tiffany complacently gazed at Veronica as she placed a check before the latter. Veronica took a glimpse at the check and saw an amount of one million. She slowly lifted her eyes and shot Tiffany a resentful glare before turning to Rachel with a cold grin. “Thinking to ‘purchase’ the position of Young Mistress of the Kingses with just one million? Props to you and your calculativeness, business women.” “Oh, won’t you ever be grateful? It’d take more than a lifetime for your foster parents to earn such an amount of money!” Tiffany furiously replied. Veronica replied in a cold tone, “Don’t worry about how much they make. One thing you should worry about instead is that I have the power to prevent you from becoming the Young Mistress of the Kingses!” “You’re so irritating!” Rachel shook her head, revealing condescension in her eyes. “How did I, Rachel Zimmerman, give birth to a disgraceful daughter like you?” “Veronica, Mom’s gonna offer two million shall also leave Bloomstead.” “Well, then, that’s a dealbreaker.” Without saying more, Veronica turned around, preparing to depart. Seeing she was really leaving, Tiffany grew hasty and immediately uttered, “Fine, it’s a deal.” In spite of accomplishing her plan, Veronica revealed not a trace of joy. “I don’t want your check. Transfer the funds to my bank account instead. While you’re at it, prepare a statement describing the transfer as takeout application and amend the owner’s details. With that, Tiffany would report to the police that the transfer she made was an error, and the police would scour for the two million. By then, Veronica would lose both the money and her takeout application. “You’re getting ahead of yourself.” Rachel was visibly disgusted. Veronica responded with a scornful smirk. “Well, it’s not like I’m forcing you or anything.” “Forget it, Mom! We’ll the latter swiftly altered the owner’s personal information. Back then, the takeout order had failed to reach its customer, so the delivery records on the platform couldn’t prove that Veronica had in fact rescued Matthew. At most, the Kingses would have doubts about the records. After all, the name registered in the hospital was Tiffany’s and the surveillance footage Tiffany now, it would act as proof that she was indeed his “rescuer.” “You better leave Bloomstead once your foster dad recovers.” After changing the details saved in the takeout application, Tiffany revealed a smug look, speaking as if the Larsons owned the entire Bloomstead. regarding the accident as well as the license plate of the mentioned driver, recording her conversation with the policemen in secret while she was at it.

A slot is a location where something can be inserted. It may also refer to a slot on the face of a machine, or a position in a file or record. The word slot has also become a verb, meaning to insert something into the correct place or position. In a slot game, players insert cash or, in ticket-in, ticket-out machines, paper tickets with barcodes into a designated slot on the machine. The machine then activates reels and stops to rearrange symbols into a winning combination. When the symbols match the pay table, the player receives credits based on the payout rate. Symbols vary depending on the theme, but classic symbols include fruit, bells, and stylized lucky sevens. There are many factors that influence the outcome of a slot machine spin, and each machine can be different even though they have the same interface. It’s important to understand how each machine works, and to choose one that fits your needs and budget. The more pay lines you have on a slot, the greater your chances of winning, but this can increase the amount you have to spend per spin. Some slots feature a fixed pay-out, which means that the same percentage of your bet is returned to you if you win. This is called a “fixed-odds” game, and while it can be fun to play, it’s not the best way to win. Other slot games use a random number generator to determine which symbols will appear on the reels, and this can make your experience more unpredictable. Another thing to consider when choosing a slot is its volatility, which is the likelihood of a winning spin. High-volatility slots have a higher risk of losing than low-volatility slots, so it’s important to find a machine that suits your personal risk tolerance. However, the most important thing to remember is that luck plays a huge role in slot success. Therefore, it’s important to play for fun and to not take yourself too seriously when playing slots.

Tel Aviv, Israel is the first city to make the large-scale rollout of a truly innovative piece of technology. A stretch of electric roadway will make it possible to charge cars as they drive. The Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality partnered up with ElectReon and Dan Bus Company to create the masterpiece. The road will run between Tel Aviv University Railway Station and Klatzkin Terminal in Ramat Aviv, measuring about 600 meters in length. "We have no doubt that," said Deputy Mayor for Transportation at Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality Meital Lehavi, "if the wide-scale experiment is successful, it will not only benefit the public, but also save resources, improve the operational efficiency of public transportation, and maybe even a new world-class method of electrification will emanate from Tel Aviv-Yafo." As a result of this change, buses will not have to be charged or collect gas and will run on an unlimited schedule. Not only that, but both noise pollution and air pollution are expected to decrease. The pilot project could mean a whole new life for these passengers.

Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa has instructed officials to maintain vigil over the 'Delta Plus' variant of Covid-19, particularly in border districts and subject those arriving in the state from Maharashtra and Kerala to tests. The Chief Minister held a meeting with senior Ministers and officials today to review the COVID-19 situation in the state. "The Delta Plus situation in the state as of now is under control and instructions have been given to maintain strict vigil about the virus," the CMO said in a statement. "We need to subject everyone who arrives from Maharashtra and Kerala to tests as in these states, Covid cases are still on the rise and cases related to Delta Plus mutant were also recorded more in number in these states than in southern states," he said Yediyurappa contended that at least in Karnataka, the Delta Plus strain has not yet appeared on large scale as of now and things are under control in this regard. He also instructed the authorities concerned to identify malnourished children and provide them nutritious food and medical care that is required.

Your cart is currently empty! Thrips lay eggs on various plant tissues. Egg-laying on grapes, or any fruits may develop dark scars surrounded by lighter halos. Nymph and adult thrips have piercing-sucking mouthparts and feed on fruits, leaves, and shoots. Feeding on apples, nectarines, and raspberries can deform orscar the developing fruit. Feeding on rose buds may develop dark spots on petals, or the flower buds may deform and fail to open. Feeding on leaves causes tiny pale spots which noticeably affect plants’ cosmetic appearance. On some plants, thrips can cause severe stunting to the early season flush or cause the leaves to drop prematurely. They also vector different viruses, which can severely damage or kill certain vegetable crops.

- Apple to host Hour of Code workshops in celebration of Computer Science Education Week from December 5 through 11 Swift Playgrounds Adds Hour of Code Challenge and New Lessons Cupertino, California, 2016-Nov-20 — /EPR Retail News/ — Apple today (NOVEMBER 17, 2016) opened registration for Hour of Code workshops at all 487 Apple retail stores worldwide, from December 5 through 11 in celebration of Computer Science Education Week. Among the most popular events at the Apple Store, Hour of Code workshops teach the basics of computer science with Code.org’s programming tutorials. Apple and Code.org share the goal of giving every student the opportunity to learn computer science. “Hour of Code embodies our vision for Apple stores as a place for the community to gather, learn and be entertained,” said Angela Ahrendts, Apple’s senior vice president of Retail. “We’re proud to introduce the Swift Playgrounds app into the workshops and honored to again work side-by-side with Code.org on this incredibly important initiative. Hour of Code is one of the absolute highlights of the year for both our teams and the families that visit our stores.” “Since we started Hour of Code in 2013, Apple has each year upped its participation and found ways to introduce more kids to computer science,” said Hadi Partovi, founder and CEO of Code.org. “The global footprint Apple offers through its stores and talented staff has reached tens of thousands of kids, and with the introduction of Hour of Code in Swift Playgrounds we can introduce coding to even more.” This year, Hour of Code programs at many Apple locations will include an introduction to Swift Playgrounds, the free new app for iPad that brings coding to life. The interactive interface of Swift Playgrounds encourages beginners to explore working with Swift, the easy-to-learn programming language from Apple, used by professional developers to create world-class apps. “Coding is just like any language, the earlier you’re exposed the more successful you’ll be,” said Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering. “Whether at an Apple Store, in a classroom or at home with an iPad, Swift Playgrounds brings real coding concepts to life and empowers the next generation with the skills they need to express their creativity.” A new Hour of Code challenge in Swift Playgrounds makes it easy for anyone to set up their own one-hour coding event, and for those continuing to build their coding skills on iPad, Swift Playgrounds adds a new Learn to Code 3 set of lessons and a companion Teacher Guide. Hour of Code for Educators In addition to in-store workshops, Apple has developed a series of tools to extend Hour of Code into schools and community centers, including a free facilitator guide offering lesson ideas, group activities and more. Apple Teacher, a free, professional self-paced learning program supporting and celebrating teachers in the US, has added resources, badging and recognition for learning and teaching coding with Swift Playgrounds on iPad. Continuing Apple’s $100 million commitment and ongoing partnership to provide 114 underserved schools with technology, services and support, Apple will provide materials and resources to assist ConnectED schools around the country to host their own Hour of Code workshops. Apple revolutionized personal technology with the introduction of the Macintosh in 1984. Today, Apple leads the world in innovation with iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple TV. Apple’s four software platforms — iOS, macOS, watchOS and tvOS — provide seamless experiences across all Apple devices and empower people with breakthrough services including the App Store, Apple Music, Apple Pay and iCloud.

Now more than ever businesses are choosing to modernize their ERP solutions by switching to S/4HANA. However for SAP users of any size, but especially for large enterprises with complex databases, cloud migrations can take up to 24 months to be implemented successfully. With the deadline looming for the end of SAP ECC -scheduled for 2027- enterprises are looking to dodge common hurdles and speed up their cloud migrations. Informatica believes the most efficient way to do this is to put data at the core of SAP modernization projects. SAP ECC is still in widespread use as many companies have been reluctant to move to S/4HANA, largely because migration efforts are a timely and costly undertaking. S/4HANA is not simply an upgrade of ECC, but instead a complete system rewrite meant to take advantage of cloud technology. However, when SAP pulls support for ECC companies will have to implement S/4HANA anyway. With three years left until end-of-life for ECC, and an average two years for the implementation period – time is running out. Informatica suggests that examining all potential roadblocks is a critical first step to cloud migration planning. A common hurdle to achieving a seamless transformation is unclean data. Data is at the core of any SAP system so it’s important that enterprises ensure their data is fit for use during modernization. This means enterprises must have data sets that can be trusted and leveraged to produce valuable insights. To address potential issues and timely set backs, prioritize data before modernization efforts start so that SAP migration to the cloud is a much quicker and more affordable process. The usability of ERP systems like SAP depends heavily on the data they store. Throughout modernization, companies need several data management tools to ensure data is fit for use when it is migrated to S/4HANA. That’s why it’s critical to consider a solution that has all these data management tools in one and Informatica Intelligent Data Management Cloud (IDMC) provides a program with these data capabilities and tools into one place. IDMC brings together data quality, master data management, data integration, data governance and is powered by its AI engine, CLAIRE to offer automation, data intelligence and context to give customers the best chance for success before they even start their cloud migration journeys.

The Senate Public Affairs Committee’s tabling of the right-to-work bill sponsored by Sen. Mark Moores (R-Albuquerque) comes at a particularly disastrous time for New Mexico. Unemployment is rising, layoffs are mounting, and the fiscal picture is darkening. RTW is a key piece of a broader package of pro-growth reforms that must be implemented to finally build a vibrant and sustainable private sector in the state. The Foundation recently completed 12 months of analyzing job-producing investments announced by Area Development magazine. Overall, jobs in RTW states claimed 77.8 percent of all positions to be created: RTW states prevailed in each of the 12 months: We also examined “border crossing,” in which investments were made by companies based in one type of state shifting to another. (For example, in December, CVS announced the hiring of 500 “pharmacists, pharmacy technicians and administrative staff” for a new facility in RTW Florida. The corporation is headquartered in non-RTW Rhode Island.) RTW bested non-RTW, 172 to 43. Foreign direct investment also prevailed in RTW states, by a wide margin. Companies based abroad announced 186 investments in worker-freedom states, as opposed to 65 in compulsory-unionism states. The Foundation now has a full year of data, and will be refining our findings to further probe why RTW is so attractive to companies and industries in manufacturing, logistics, finance, IT, biotech, and business services. For any New Mexico lawmaker who doubts the value of RTW, we’re happy to explain what we’ve found so far.

Unlocking Your Leadership Growth Potential Programme Published: 19th April 2023 Escentia’s new programme: Unlocking Your Leadership Growth Potential The Escentia team have been a little quiet these past 3 months, with intensive travel across the UK, Spain, Portugal, Rome, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium, the development of a new Escentia 6C assessment tool (more on this to come), and also getting ready for the launch of our ground-breaking new leadership programme: Unlocking Your Leadership Growth Potential. This annual programme is designed for a small group of talented senior leaders from different backgrounds, and is the brainchild of Paula Tully (former senior VP at Pfizer), which has been years in the making. It is Paula’s intention and personal passion to bring everything that she’d wished somebody had taught her, when on her own leadership journey. Like many senior leaders, she learnt through trial and error, undertaking a Masters in Change and working with some incredible people throughout the world. On Monday we welcomed our first cohort of 12 trailblazing senior business leaders from 3 large companies onto the programme. Our virtual kick-off call connected the group, in preparation for the 8-month guided journey ahead, which will be delivered across 6 in-person modules from May to December. The essence of this programme is to enable clear business leaders that are focussed, adaptable and sustainable, and uniquely focusses on creating an aligned mind and body to become an intentional, confident and sustainable leader in change. The goal is to provide a leadership journey with a lasting impact, injecting leaders with inner confidence and self-belief, and equipping them with a tangible output to take their learnings forward – through the creation of an individual development plan for the next 18 months. The programme is delivered by a panel of highly experienced Executive coaches and highly regarded guest speakers. It is also designed to take classroom learnings to the outdoors, an important aspect of all programmes with Escentia. We will provide further updates on our programme as we progress on our journey in 2023. If you would like to hear more about the course and reserve a spot for the 2024 programme, do drop us a line: firstname.lastname@example.org

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Improvement of lane marks extraction technique under different road conditions Show full item recordCitation The application of edge detection to obtain salient lane boundaries on road image is popular in the computer vision area. However, edge detectors may be easily distracted by manifold noises that emerged on the road surface such as shadow cast, vehicles or other obstacles. Additionally, sky region can adversely affect the performance of lane detection method due to the presence of horizontal edges in the sky region. In this paper, lane preprocessing approach is proposed to effectively extract lane marks from the traffic scene. Horizon localization is improved to automatically segment the sky and road region through regional minimum search. It is followed by the lane region analysis to adaptively remove the road pixels and obstacles. Evaluations on the proposed lane preprocessing method are performed under different time of the day/night and various road sceneries such as city, highway, rural, suburban etc. Some results and findings are shown in the paper with regards on the observation of the road intensity change respective to the variation of the road conditions. © 2010 IEEE.

BenRiach The Original Ten The classic, sweet, fruit-laden style of Benriach. The BenRiach distillery, one of the few independent Scottish distilleries left, was founded in 1898 by John Duff. The distillery has largely remained inactive during the 20th century since it was mothballed in 1900 due to the collapse of a major Scotch Whisky purchaser. It was reopened again in 1965, but remained struggling until 2004 when it was acquired by an independent consortium. The company is now lead by two South African funding partners, Geoff Bell and Wayne Keiswetter, and Scotch expert Billy Walker. In the Heart of Speyside, between the barley fields and the foothills of the Grampian Mountains, lies this famous Scottish distillery. As for all great distilleries they use mostly, if not exclusively, resources that are locally available. The grains used for production grow all around the distillery and the water is drawn through the rocks from deep below. Want to taste Benriach’s signature smooth and multi-layered character? Benriach The Original Ten was aged for at least 10 years in three casks: Bourbon, Sherry, and virgin oak casks. This complex aging process resulted in endless layers of luscious orchard fruit, honeyed malt, and toasted oak, all tied together with a subtle trace of smoke. Master Blender Rachel Barrie described this offering as the classic, sweet, fruit-laden style of Benriach and we agree. Savor this richly layered Speyside Single Malt neat, with a drop of water, or on the rocks. Appearance / Color Nose / Aroma / Smell Rich orchard fruit, honey, and toasted oak aromas. Flavor / Taste / Palate Ripe pear, nectarine and malt sweetness, supported by vanilla cream and pastry. Almond and spiced vanilla linger.

Slyrs Single Malt Whisky Classic In 1994, Florian Stetter was a trained brewer and distiller. He took a trip to Scotland to get a hands-on sense of the Whisky business. Returning to Bavaria, Germany he and his brother Anton set about preparing for their own venture. In 1999, they worked with the historic Lantenhammer Distillery to produce first bottles of their Whisky, with the first production run selling out in 2002. Things went well and they built their own distillery in 2007 just down the road. Today they have a wide range of Whiskies and specialty drams. The Slyrs Distillery sits at the base of the Alps south of Munich and just north of the Swiss border. The location is important because Slyrs Single Malt Whisky Classic is made from spring-fed mineral water coming from within those mountains and Bavarian summer barley. The barley is gently malted and kiln-dried to bring out the nature of the grain. The Spirit is double-distilled slowly in small batches — each taking fourteen hours to complete. Finally, the new make Single Malt is aged in new American white oak casks and bottled at 43% ABV without chill-filtering. Nose / Aroma / Smell The aroma is strong with a burst of spices and toasted grain over vanilla and mown hay. Flavor / Taste / Palate The palate tastes stronger than 43% ABV with a spice cake essence over apple on the mid-palate and dark toffee in the background. The finish is pleasantly long and warm with a lingering note of toasted oak and granola.

Four days a week, you’ll get commentary, analysis and original reporting on major issues like NIL legislation, how college athletic budgets function, how athletic departments fit (and don’t fit) with the rest of the university, and how the entire enterprise really works. If you care about the college and the sports in college sports, you'll love Extra Points. What do I get with a free subscription? With a free subscription, you'll get two newsletters a week, usually on Mondays and Wednesdays. You'll also get a podcast, Going For Two, that I record with Bryan Fischer of Athlon Sports, which digs into Extra Points-type topics that can't be squeezed into a single newsletter. What do I get with a paid subscription? In addition to those two newsletters, you'll also get two more newsletters, giving you four newsletters a week. You'll also get access to our private Discord server, shared with my friends at Moon Crew (the folks who run the popular Shutdown Fullcast and Split Zone Duo podcasts). You'll also get the satisfaction that comes with supporting independent media. Who are you? I'm Matt Brown I used to oversee SB Nation’s college team sites and regularly contributed to SBNation.com’s college football coverage. That coverage increasingly focused on off-the-field issues, from conference realignment to media rights to athletic department finances. I also wrote a book on great college football What If questions. Prior to getting into sports journalism, I taught elementary school, worked as a political organizer, and in executive search. I'm passionate about open records, college football history, higher education, and building an internet for humans, rather than algorithms. I have a degree from The Ohio State University, by way of brief pit stops at American University and Ohio State's Newark campus. I grew up in Ohio, lived a bunch of other places, and now currently live in Chicago. How can I reach Matt?

America’s economic stimulus packages have historically left poor people behind. Economic stimulus packages typically bring a lack of concern for Americans who struggle the most to the forefront of the conversation. That’s because stimulus packages typically contain more gains for the wealthy and offering nearly nothing for those who grapple with getting by on a daily basis; who are negatively impacted by economic downturns more than anyone else. It’s no secret that poverty disproportionately impacts communities of color in America. I could argue, with great success, that the effects of poverty are not by accident. Taking a look at what conservatives bring to the table easily explains why things are the way they are. What the economy has become since Ronald Reagan was president is one of corporate socialism. For the last four decades, people who earn the least have benefitted the least. There’s a reason for that. Like most Americans, politicians are keenly aware of Census Data from 2018 showing the highest poverty rate by race is as follows: 25.4% of Native Americans; 20.8% of Black folks; 17.6% of Latinos; 10.1% of White folks; 10.1% of Asians, yet conservative policies have consistently hurt the poorest Americans thus disproportionately targeting and adversely affecting communities of color.

When it comes to stuff I obsess about, here’s a short list: Why can’t I get a decent piece of pizza in New York City anymore? (I blame the dollar-slice industry.) Which Andrew Lloyd Webber musical is his crowning achievement? (I’ve become convinced it’s “Evita,” not “Phantom of the Opera” or “Cats.”) And will the Miami Marlins — my favorite baseball team — defy the odds and win a wild-card spot this season? (I’m taking bets it’s going to happen.) But notice I didn’t mention anything about the Roman Empire. If you’re a little confused about this Roman business, you’re likely not aware of this latest viral trend. Namely, a discussion about how men can’t stop thinking about that bygone era when Nero, Augustus and the like ruled the world — or at least a significant portion of it. And naturally, it led to my wife of 32 years asking me: “So, how often do you think about the Roman Empire?” As if she didn’t already know my real obsessions? I just nearly extended our upcoming Washington, D.C., vacation to see a buzzy new production of “Evita.” Of course, there’s probably some truth to the notion that men are into matters of the ancient Roman state. It certainly fits the alpha-male fixation with power and authority. As in, us guys are just a bunch of wannabe gladiators, looking for our opportunity to brandish a weapon and defeat the enemy. At the very least, we do know that men have particular obsessions that are less likely to be shared by women. We spend more on electronics and booze. We’re far bigger fans of professional football, which some might argue is just another version of the gladiator games. But here’s the problem: What’s true in general is not necessarily true in particular. And to think all men fit a certain profile — in particular, the alpha-male profile — is to think that masculinity must adhere to a frankly outdated model. We’re living in an era when we’re constantly redefining gender roles, if not the very idea of gender itself. Stereotypes may be rooted in certain realities, but those realities change over time. Craig Agranoff, a Florida-based marketing guru, told me that companies still play by some of the old rules of what speaks to men, but they also know they’ve got to expand that definition. Or as Agranoff said, “It’s now OK for a man to want to have soft sheets to sleep on.” The problem with playing the gender stereotyping game is that it limits us all. And in limiting ourselves, we close doors to “otherness” at best and create divisions that cause real pain and problems at worst. It’s such stereotyping that arguably leads to the gender pay gap that continues to plague the workforce, for example. So, what about my list of obsessions? One could argue that baseball is a “guy” thing. Maybe pizza, too. And Broadway musicals? Perhaps not so much by traditional standards, but most of my male friends can talk theater all day. The point is, we don’t all fit neatly into the boxes that society suggests. Which is why I threw the question back to my wife: “How often do you think about the Roman Empire?” It turns out she knew her emperors far more than I did.

How To Tell If Your Home Building Business Is Healthy In the current real estate economy, home builders can expect to see anywhere from an 8-10% increase in new construction starts within the coming year. This is fantastic news. The question is: is your home building business healthy enough to keep up with anticipated demand? How do you measure the health of a home building business? At First Union, we've helped numerous builders with everything from procuring new equipment, to buying land on which to build, to being able to hire on more employees. We understand what it takes to get your home building firm healthy and thriving. Understanding the Health of Your Company Below are just a few things to keep in mind as you evaluate the current condition of your building business. Is it time to change up your trades? Yes, loyalty is important, but not at the cost of quality and affordability. If you've been using the same subcontractors for years and they're still working out well—terrific. But what if they're struggling to keep up, or their work is falling off? You are the owner, you have to make the tough calls. Same goes for suppliers. In fact, with suppliers, it can often be more important to "see what's out there." Your supplier might get comfortable and thus his/her pricing may become less competitive. You are in business after all—you want to be on the lookout for optimal products in combination with fair pricing. Are you land poor? Having too much land inventory can drag you down. If it's not moving and no one appears to be showing any interest, then it's probably time to go back to the drawing board and come up with a different land strategy. Are you communicating with clients and staff alike? Communication is at the core of everything you do as a home builder. Making sure that everyone is on the same page at all times isn't just necessary, failing to do so could mean the demise of your company. When reviewing your business plan, really take the time to see how you're operating, where you're headed and what you may need to adjust to keep that healthy bottom line. If you find you need cash for special projects or to get through a slower period—we would love to help. Our extensive experience working with home builders is most definitely to your advantage. Call today to find out how we can help you!

One of the most popular Middle East e-commerce companies, Jomla, today announced the establishment of a new operations center in China, a move that speaks of this company moving forward on an entirely meaningful journey for its supply chain management worldwide. One of the most recent instances of such a great announcing was the launching of its third logistics facility following successful operations through centers already established in the UAE and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The new facility is targeted at increasing product selection and efficiency in operation for its customers. Jomla offers over 70,000 products in 17 categories, ranging from mobile phones and home appliances to toys and sports equipment. We are now launching operations in China-our new center will give the possibility of offering more than 200,000 products to our customers, thus enjoying higher ranges and even faster delivery times. China is finally becoming one of the leaders in cross-border e-commerce, especially with the elaborate logistics systems and the very tech-savvy consumer base it boasts. Jomla will be able to tap into this logistics upon the opening of its operations hub in China, thus minimizing shipping times and at the same time expanding its product range. This decision brings Jomla in line with major global e-commerce players such as Alibaba and JD.com, who are always enhancing their logistics and product selections. Alongside improving logistics, Jomla’s new center will enable the company to connect directly with manufacturers in China for product sourcing. This will allow Jomla to provide the newest products at great prices, helping to solidify its place in the market even more. The company is looking to bring in advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and automation to enhance inventory management and make order fulfillment smoother, leading to quicker and more efficient deliveries. Jomla’s expansion into China is also a strategic response to increasing demand in the region, allowing the company to better serve customers not only in the Middle East but also globally. With the integration of AI, Jomla aims to provide a seamless shopping experience, further enhancing customer satisfaction. The launch of this new supply chain hub underscores Jomla’s commitment to growing its presence in the global e-commerce space. The new operations center will not only enhance Jomla’s supply chain capacity but also help drive product diversification, enabling the company to meet the evolving needs of its expanding customer base.

This past Friday, the women’s swim team was downed by the Army West Point Black Knights at the Col. Francis B. Messmore Aquatic Center with a score of 160-139. The team was once again led by junior Megan Polaha. Polaha ended the day with three individual victories as she finished first in the 200-yd butterfly, the 100-yd butterfly and the 200-yd individual medley. Seniors Shannon and Chandler Lulley also had good days in the pool as they both worked their ways to first place finishes. Shannon finished first in the 50-yd freestyle, while Chandler won the 100-yd freestyle. Both Shannon and Chandler were also a part of the winning 200-yd medley relay team and the 400-yd freestyle relay team. Yet, the highlight of the night came when sophomore diver Wendy Espina-Esquivel, a transfer from Nevada, marked her name into the Fordham diving record-book. In the one-meter dive, Wendy posted a score of 286.65 points breaking her previous record of 280.20 points set just a week ago. Espina-Esquivel also finished first in the three-meter dive. The Rams ended up winning nine of the 16 events. However, despite winning nine events and the efforts of Polaha, the Lulleys and Espina-Esquivel, the Rams were unable to capture the victory against the Black Knights. Following her record-breaking performances, Espina-Esquivel was still not satisfied. “While it feels good [to be breaking records], I want to keep breaking them,” she said. Espina-Esquivel’s ambition and desire for improvement stems further than just the collegiate diving board as she is “expecting to go to the Olympic Games.” Although disappointed about the close loss to the Army West Point Black Knights, Espina-Esquivel was happy with the fight that the Rams put up. “I think that the team did well last week,” Espina-Esquivel said, “West Point is a tough rival, and we knew it would be tough competition.” The women’s team, now 3-1, will take to the pool again on Saturday, Nov. 7, when it makes the trip up to Boston to compete against Boston University.

The United States this week will impose additional punitive measures targeting those involved in Iran's violent crackdown on anti-regime protests that have erupted across the Middle Eastern country following the death of Mahsa Amini, President Joe Biden said Monday. Amini, a 22-year-old Kurdistan Iranian, died Sept. 16 after being detained days earlier by the country's so-called morality police known as Guidance Patrol on allegations of violating the regime's strict hijab laws. Witnesses claim she was beaten by the arresting officers. In response to her death, Iranians throughout the country have taken to the streets in anti-regime protests that have been met with bloody resistance. According to the Oslo-based Iran Human Rights organization, more than 133 protesters have been killed including more than 40 on Friday alone in the southeastern city of Zahedan. In a statement Monday, Biden said he was "gravely concerned" about the reports of the "intensifying violent crackdown down on peaceful protesters."

Receding Gums: Are You Brushing Your Teeth Too Hard? - Jan 31 2022 Have you noticed that your gum line seems to be farther back on your teeth than it used to be? If you know something looks different about your teeth, but you aren’t sure what it is, it could be receding gums. A receding gum line is a telltale sign that something is amiss with your dental hygiene, but could it be connected to brushing your teeth too hard? Learn more about the symptoms of receding gums and the best way to care for your teeth here. How to Spot Receding Gums Why do you need to spot receding gums early on? Your gums will not grow back. When receding gums are left untreated, they can result in exposed tooth roots and even loose teeth. These problems are uncomfortable and detrimental to your dental health. They can also create issues for your smile or bite. How do you know if your gums are receding? Familiarize yourself with the signs that your gums may not be at their healthiest. Here are some of the most common symptoms of receding gums: - Bleeding after brushing or flossing the teeth - Gums that are red, swollen, or painful - Bad breath - Noticeable difference in the gumline Some symptoms, such as pain when you brush, can be linked to sensitive teeth. If you experience pain while brushing, it might be a good time to evaluate your brushing habits or to check in with your dentist to see what you can do about this discomfort. Are You Brushing Too Hard? Many patients feel that the best way to get their teeth clean is to brush as hard as possible with a toothbrush with medium to hard bristles. Unfortunately, this is often an early warning sign that receding gums could be on the horizon. Under normal circumstances, you should only use a toothbrush with soft bristles. These are the only toothbrushes that the American Dental Association has endorsed. If you think you need a brush with harder bristles, make sure to consult with your dentist. Unless they specifically recommend harder bristles, soft bristles are the best way to clean your teeth safely. Another way to determine whether you are brushing too hard is to take a closer look at your toothbrush. Even if you are using soft bristles, it is still possible to brush too hard. Damage to the bristles after using a brush for only a short period is often an indicator that you are being too vigorous in your brushing. Brushing too hard also leads to sensitive teeth because it wears down the enamel on the outside of the tooth. This same loss of enamel can also lead to a smile that appears duller than it usually does. If you notice sensitive teeth or a dull smile, it is a good idea to take stock of the health of your gums. Spotting Issues Early If you think you might have receding gums from brushing your teeth too hard, contact your dentist for a checkup. You should also bring up symptoms like sensitive teeth, swollen gums, and bleeding after flossing your teeth. These could be signs of receding gums or gum disease. Your dentist can advise you on the best ways to care for your teeth and prevent receding gums from becoming a larger issue for your smile. Forest Hill Dentistry is here to help you get your best smile. Dr. Payam Cohen will guide you through dental care, recommend the best toothbrush for your needs, and help you prevent larger issues like receding gums from taking over your smile.

The 40 Under 40 issue of the Fort Worth Business Press is always fun to publish as we celebrate rising stars of our community who have yet to reach the age of 40 but are already establishing lasting legacies of leadership, business accomplishment and community service. Our annual 40 Under 40 Event – held this year on July 28 – recognizes each of the individuals, and as we read off their accomplishments it’s humbling. We talk about their careers and their families and their volunteer work in the community. It’s natural to hear all these good things and ask ourselves why we don’t do more. At least that’s what I ask myself. I wander back in my mind to when I came to Fort Worth in 1986 to take over the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. I was 39 years old. I laugh now to think of how self-confident I was as I took on responsibility for over 1,500 employees at what was then the 25th largest daily and Sunday newspaper in the country – at a time when there were over 1,800 daily and Sunday newspapers. Our circulation was about 150,000 and our revenues were $125 million. I laugh because in reality I had so much to learn. Luckily, I worked for patient people and our employees abided my learning curve. The challenges were many and frequent. In 1986, a deep recession gripped Fort Worth and all of Texas. Our largest advertiser, Monnig’s Department Store, went out of business in my first six months as Star-Telegram publisher. But Texas being Texas, the state and its people persevered and fought back. So did the newspaper. We grew to about $350 million in revenues and had about 350,000 Sunday subscribers. Our employee base grew to just under 2,000. While I could have been more personally involved in community volunteer work than I was, I did move the Star-Telegram into more civic involvement than at any time in its history. We poured a lot of money, time and effort into civic events and causes – more in dollars and cents than had ever been given by the newspaper. Personally, I devoted time to the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo, but it was more hobby than work. My two oldest children were in high school in states other than Texas, so I traveled a lot to be with them. Still, I can look back and say I should have done more. Folks such as the ones in our newest 40 Under 40 class are incredible. They are working, volunteering, and raising young children. Even though we call the event “40 Under 40” we always find ourselves with at least one more nominee who deserves to be honored and this year was no exception. We had 41 honorees. The Business Press was founded in 1988 under the guidance of Carolyn Ashford. I have owned it three times, starting in 1998, and from our records it appears as though the first 40 Under 40 event was in 1994. Since that time there have been 910 honorees and this year’s class brings the total to 951. Next year we just might have to expand the class to 49 so we can reach the magic number of 1,000. The list of 40 Under 40 honorees over the years is more than impressive. The award has consistently and literally been given to people who were destined to lead. There is no better example than Fort Worth’s mayor, Mattie Parker, who was a 40 Under 40 honoree in 2013 and was elected mayor this year at the age of 37. We chose the city’s youngest-ever mayor to be the inaugural recipient of our 40 Under 40 Alumnus of the Year Award. Producing the Business Press in print and online is hard work but it is work we love and, believe it or not, it is fun for those of us who do it. The same is true of our many communitywide events, from Great Women of Texas to Top 100 to, of course, 40 Under 40. After moving 2020’s 40 Under 40 outdoors to the Coyote Drive-In Theater in deference to the coronavirus pandemic we returned to a more traditional setting this year with an indoor event at Ridglea Country Club. And as we celebrated a spectacular 2021 class of young achievers with an in-person event and with special editions of the Business Press in print and online, we were reminded just how satisfying and enjoyable our work can be.

Hi I was diagnosed just over a week ago with a grade 2 ductal cancer and am having it removed on the 28th of this month, they said it looks like the lymph nodes are clear so fingers crossed on that one. Three weeks after op will be starting 3 weeks of radiotherapy then Tamoxifen for 5 years. I have got the mirena coil and the consultant said it was ok to keep it in but the breast care nurse said to do some research then check with my own doc, anyway after looking on google it seems to me that not a lot is really known about the long term effects and breast cancer so have decided to get it whipped out next week,just wondered if anyone else has had this. Anyway can’t wait to get op over and done with now, its so strange how one minute lifes just going along as normal then everything turns crazy !!One thing on the plus side, I’ve found out I have some great friends, including one who was diagnosed with the same cancer 4 years ago x You might want to have a chat to the staff on the helpline with regard to your coil, I’m sure they’ll have some up to date information for you. Calls are free, 0808 800 6000, open again on Monday morning at 9am. Hi Strummergirl, sorry u have to join our club but welcome. Your cancer must be hormone positve if you’re having Tamoxifen, which is the same as me & my surgeon said i could only use non-hormonal contraception. I think the Mirena has some hormone in it so would have thought it wasn’t suitable but as suggested u’d better check though im sure someone will come along in a bit who’s had one. Good luck with your op, i know what u mean about just wanting to get on with it. I think most of us feel the same. I started chemo this week & even felt like it with that,unbelievably! It’s great that you have good friends, i think that’s so important & the funny thing i found is that people i wasn’t that close with have helped loads & are now good friends, mind u i’ve got others who seem to have disappeared off into the sunset,lol. Take care xx Welcome to the club nobody wants to join, but with the lovliest members. Your head will be over the place at the moment, but it does get easier. We will all support you on here the best we can. Thanks for the comments and yes mine is oestrogen fed and i think the mirena releases a synthetic form of progesterone, but will prob have it out for my own peace of mind. Have thought of a couple more questions, I still have quite a dark bruise from the biopsy which was over 2 weeks ago, it don’t hurt but is this normal ? Also have read in information from hospital about having to inject yourself with clexane after having a wide local incision,which is what I am having, does everyone have to do this after this kind of surgery ?x Hello Strummergirl, and welcome I didn’t have a Mirena coil, but I did have the Depo Provera injection which I’ve been told to stop. My biopsy bruises were stunning and lasted for weeks! They were worse than the bruising I had after my WLE/ANC! As for the Clexane, a nurse did that for me shortly after I got onto the ward but mine was an overnight stay. Hope there’s something helpful in there xx I had the district nurse visit every day for two weeks to inject me with Clexane. Apart from the day they forgot and my OH did it for me! Brave guy. And do you know what, it was the least painful of the lot! But he didn’t want to do any more! Glad you’ve got some supportive friends. Amazing what you find out about people sometimes. Good luck with your operation. Thanks everyone for being so helpful. loppy, I don’t fancy the idea of my old man coming anywhere near me with a needle lol I suppose they will tell me more about all this stuff when I go down the day before the op for the medical checks and dye, they did say its a lot to take in and they wern’t kidding !!

I have a question. Walking....If i have to walk any kind of distance especially on campus or have to go to store with the kids walking seriously hurts. I thought i was just because I've been sick lately but now that the pneumonia is gone (i think) the walking isn't getting easier....i feel like a total failure with all of this and it seems the kids are starting to get really pissed about it all. Everything in house seems to center around migraines, unable to walk, not being able to lift....list goes on.... It's driving me insane I am sorry to hear about your struggles.I can't imagine having pneumonia on top of Chiari. I have a very hard time walking. It's very difficult to lift my feet most days and my leg muscles burn and are weak. I have kids and they get very frustrated also even though they know I'm not doing any of this on purpose. When one person in the family has Chiari it feels like the whole family does. It may be that you are just having a hard time recovering from the pneumonia and the fatigue is worse because of the Chiari. Be kind to yourself I am sure that your kids know that you are not doing this on purpose and you would understand and be compassionate to someone else that was struggling you are. I know that's easier said than done. Sometimes the guilt keeps me up at night. We all find ways of rearanging our lives to accommodate our ever changing symptoms. Sometimes pushing yourself past the point of what your comfortable with makes your symptoms worse. The days you feel good you want to do all the things that your not able to do when your feeling bad and then you over due it and suffer worse because of it. I am saying a prayer for you and I hope you feel better soon. Hi Razzle. I sent you a private message. I wish I could make it to Burlington.

Has anyone seen that episode of southpark. At the end you know, they always have their "You know, I learned something today..." monologues. One time one of their lessons was that "all the things they say about weed may not be true, but it makes you ok with being bored. And it's times when you're bored, you could be doing something with your life like learning something new, or going out and doing something. Maybe there is truth to that... I've seen alot of posts about people saying how bored they are for their next bag when they're dry. Maybe weed does make us ok with being bored? I don't know. I love mary jane to death though! So I'm basically calling the kettle black. idk why I'm posting this. Most likely cause I'm bored and last night when I smoked all I got was a buzz so I'm on a T break. I wish I had a garbage bag full of white widdow. Damn I would be so happy for like 3 months! Thought the same thing when I saw the episode. But then I smoked a bowl. IMO, I learn the most when I am high. All the thoughts I wouldn't think of sober urges me to look up information and learn shit I wouldn't care about before.When I'm high I practice graphic design and drawing, which I hope to do for a living. It serves different purposes for different people. Just have to figure out what your purpose is. haha reminds me of last night... I was smoking of course, and then everytime I listen to music I don't see a "screen saver" or a scene play out in my head like most everyone does. I only see pictures. like paintings. So last night I was pretty convinced I could become a famous painter if I wanted to. I even had an idea in mind and it still looks pretty cool to me. and I'm not high at all lol. Still, my handwriting/drawings suck ass so I doubt that'll be my thing lol Maybe you're right though. I should smoke alone and reflect some. To me, this is the best kind of smoking. I mean I have shit tons of fun with my friends passing a couple blunts around, but they are two different experiences. When I'm alone and I smoke, my thought process is tenfold. I also get these great ideas of inventions, and also random epiphanies. Plus you feel safe in your own environment which rids the feeling of paranoia while your out. Guna go get ready to pack a bowl now, and try out this epic sploof I made QFT. Marijuana does make me more content with being bored... but that doesn't mean I'm going to be less ambitious and motivated... it just means that when I take time out to relax... I can do just that The most I can tell you season wise is that it's in the latter half but not TOO recent.... :S If you go to comedycentral.com/southpark You can watch the full episode. Just search it out or thumb through each season if you really wanna see it.

darkpass Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 Hi I am trying to prepare a plan to reach my destination i.e MS by 2012 Fall Can anyone please help me out with the time line like by which month next year I should take the GRE ? by which month should I apply for admission to the universities ? etc... thanks in advance ! cheers Kitkat Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 It all depends on what schools you are looking at. They all have their own application dates, and that is when you should be applying by. With the GRE, you should take it when it depends on when those application are due by, in the sense that you should take it soon enough that the scores would get there by the time that the applications are due. So I suggest you should figure out where you want to apply to (soon?) and take the GRE as soon as possible. I don't know what the normal deadlines for most MS programs is, but I expect that like most programs they are due at latest due by Feb. or Mar. at the latest. darkpass Posted November 18, 2011 Author Posted November 18, 2011 Thanks for the prompt response, that was really helpful. I started preparing for the new GRE from yest, planning to take the test by first week of Feb or by Jan last week. dntw8up Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 GRE exams taken in 2012 are unlikely to be scored before application deadlines.

pinkerton Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Hi everyone, I am in the process of applying to graduate programs. I have narrowed my choices down to the following: Master of Media Studies - Concordia University Master of Immigration and Settlement Studies - Ryerson University Master of Communication and Culture - Ryerson and York Universities (joint program) Master of Industrial Relations - Queen's University Master of Industrial Relations and Human Resources - University of Toronto My question is does it look bad to referees when you are applying to programs that are quite different from each other? I do have a genuine interest in all of these programs but I am not sure whether the variety would be perceived negatively. As long as I could explain my interest in each of the programs, do you think that that would suffice? Thank you in advance for any tips/advice. juilletmercredi Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Is the variety because you can study what you want to study in any of those programs, or is it because you are unsure about what you want to do? For example, I study health inequality from a socio-psychological perspective. I could've done that in a sociology program, a public health program, or a social psychology program, as well as a program in human development and family studies. My research interests and questions would've stayed the same, it would simply be a different degree with a different approach to doing the research. But if you are applying to multiple disparate programs simply because you can't decide what to do, yes, that does look bad to your referees. That might require some explanation. For example, I can link three of those programs together - it looks like you may be interested in cultural influences on media made for or by immigrants, or something that has to do with media surrounding immigration, so I can understand the first three. But then the last two are just totally different. Sigaba 1 pinkerton Posted November 29, 2011 Author Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) Hi there, I really appreciate your response. I am actually genuinely interested in all of those topics - media, immigration and industrial relations/human resources. Industrial relations can be linked to immigration say if I were to study the impact of immigration on labour dynamics/the workforce. However, I wouldn't say that I would necessarily have the same focus/research topic in all of the programs. Thus, it's not really a matter that I'm not sure of what I want to do. It's more a matter of having multiple interests but yes, I'm not sure if that would be interpreted as fickle. Thanks and feel free to provide more input. Edited November 29, 2011 by pinkerton

During normal Pop hours its not noticeable. Say at 6am, it is absurd how over powered ESFS are and the whole planetside 2 gameplay revolves around them. That is if there are some sicko pilots online.(and again this is only in low pop hours) I log on and reavers are assaulting the only sunderer at the only fight, i pull out a max and nearly die from them + infantry, The reaver is ducking and diving behind mountains. Pulling max here isnt very effective, cant deal with reaver or the infantry trying to decimate me. Sundy ends up dying. Next continent unlocks, i come about 10 mins late to the crown. Have some infantry fight there, our sundy ends up dying. So my squad mate pulls another sundy and it ends up dying to a reaver agiain i think. They want to take another sundy and i saw a lightning come down so i pull a magrider with ranger on top to defend sundy. I end up killing lightning but dying to reavers, there is alot of them at this point between 2-3 reavers my ranger is not holding them off. So i pull a skyguard, because thats what you have to do if no one else is going to counter the air(plus i am pissed at these reavers by now). These two reavers where using those guided missiles with like 500 damage i think. and they took out my skyguard. I pull again and play more safe hiding in my base as a retreat, i end up killing one. and then he comes back and i was chasing him all over the place when he kept repairing and then thats when i found his nest. If i want to counter these reavers? i cant pull max, pulling a skyguard is like a wash at best.(2 will kill you while 1 can run away). .There is no true counter to them that an average player like me can use. If i was a pro pilot that would be it. But these guys are from the same outfit and i always seem them in reavers. So i went to kill there base, took maybe 20-30 mins to finally kill there base. All of this just to try defend against an onslaught of spammed reavers, that are farming sunderers. They have the most strongest vehicle in the game with no true counter unless your a pro pilot yourself, and yet they can spam as many as they want for there 2-3 pro pilots. I dont think the devs made construction so people could spam reavers that are overpowered in low population times. I logged onto play infantry, but had to defend against reavers the whole time. I did not log onto play skyguard for an hour. Please fix it. Yeah, fair enough. I even use bases for free stuff, and the main challenge is convincing people to use it. I can see how if that were achieved it would be OP. Assets from PMBs should be heavily discounted to make them worth something, but free is too spammable. I've used many free safe eject ESFs as C4 bombers, and I can see that it's brutal. except ESF from PMBs aren´t free neither any other vehicle or aircraft, they cost cortium for every spawn G2A vs A2G has rather been a general problem with PS2 since its beginning

For this solo, I was not only inspired by Syn’s technique, but his sense of melody and groove. Written (perhaps unsurprisingly) in the Key of D Minor, I first consulted the second Alternate Picking class in order to work on my note articulation and achieve a sense of fluidity when playing my ascending scale runs, adding chromaticism for added “quirkiness” (one of Syn’s great tips). Similarly, the first Sweep Picking lesson helped me enormously in improving my technique. As an intermediate player, sweep picking has always presented itself as a daunting task, but this video in particular helped me to practice my three note arpeggios, laying a good foundation to tackle the more complex arpeggio patterns. The first Minor Blues lesson gave me further inspiration, helping me to realise that speed and technical prowess aren’t always indicative of a great solo, but “feel”, an awareness of the chord progressions you’re playing over/circle of 5ths and a sense of dynamics are much more important.

By Bill Connell, Somerset. Before I get started, lets do an exercise. I assume Franklin Reporter & Advocate readership crosses the broad demographic of Franklin. Think a minute about your race and your culture. Now think about the person with the most racist views you know, in your chosen demographic. See, we all have one, and we can start on a common ground. If the answer you came back with is yourself, stop reading. You won’t get it anyway. To my amazement, Township Councilman Rajiv Prasad once again pushed himself as a culture warrior, never addressing the fact that he does not understand his role as Councilman and apparently never will. The point is a Councilman and an Advocate have two different jobs. A Councilman is responsible to the whole town, and advocate is only responsible to the topic chosen. My feeling about what he said was wrong. Franklin does not have a problem he needs to fix. A town hall meeting will only attract those of opinion who want to express it. People like to complain. They were against a pocket park on Arlington Avenue, am I to assume they hate children? People hate the unknown. The real way to fight racism is getting out side-by-side and working with people. Franklin does that better then any place I know. I lost of life long friend this week. She was not political, she was not a holy roller, but was innately kind and generous. That nature does not come from a microphone. We need to replace her and add at least one more. Let’s start there.

Gov. Peter Mbah says his administration will continue to tap from the experience, wisdom and counsel of traditional rulers to sustain peace and progress in Enugu State. “Experience and wisdom of traditional rulers are imperative to sustain the much-desired economic growth and progress of Enugu State,” Mbah said on Sunday evening in Enugu at the launch of a book – “In The Line Of Duty”. The governor, represented by the Commissioner for Local Government, Rural Development and Chieftaincy Affairs, Chief Okey Ogbodo, said that the government always draws inspiration from intellectual work done by revered traditional rulers who are vast in life. “It is a great book that I strongly recommend for our children to learn the act of leadership and diplomacy that bring people together and galvanize people to progress. “As a government, we will continue to accord the traditional institution respect and a pride of place even as they contribute in no small measure to the attainment of Enugu State of our dreams,” he said. Mbah lauded the Chairman, South-East Council of Traditional Rulers, and author of the book – “In The Line Of Duty” – Igwe Lawrence Agubuzu, for his wisdom and courage to put something down for posterity. Earlier, Gen. Chris Garuba (retired), former General Officer Commanding (GOC) 82 Division of the Nigerian Army, called on Nigerians to sustain the existing peace and relationship that holds the country together. “We should teach and impress on our children and subjects that unity and peace built on good relationships are all we need to build a progressive nation that works for everybody,” Garuba said. The book reviewer, the former Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo, said that the book was a 13-Chapter thought-provoking and knowledge-enriching masterpiece. According to Nebo, the book is a compendium of various thought- provoking and solution-driven speeches and addresses presented by Igwe Agubuzu in various fora of national, regional and state discourse on challenging and emerging nationhood and societal issues. He also recommended the book for all ages and a must read for those in leadership positions and those aspiring to be one as it is rich in practical experiences, wisdom and positive mindset for action to solve challenging leadership issues. Speaking on what motivated him to author the book, Igwe Agubuzu, who is the Chairman of Enugu State Council of Traditional Rulers, said that he desired to keep records for posterity and share inestimable experiences and thoughts. “I have been working as a traditional ruler in various capacities since I retired from the Foreign Service and in the course of these works I have made some speeches and addresses. “And I thought some of them contain some views of mine, recommendations of mine that I think will be useful to the government of the day and the up-coming generation,” Agubuzu, who is the Eze Ogbunechendo and traditional ruler of Ezema Olo Kingdom in Enugu State, said.

The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) is celebrating Ada Lovelace Day on October 8 with a special event for its supporters: the global English premiere of the animated film 'Ada & Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream'. Originally a highly successful illustrated book, now available in 10 languages and counting, the story has been adapted into a film and is licensed as an open educational resource. Free Software in Education When you use Free Software you can use a program without expiration date, read its source code, modify the program to fit your needs, and further share the program and any improvements you make. The FSFE promotes the inclusion of Free Software in all levels of education systems and non-formal education. Students should be taught the use of Free Software Computer science curricula should focus on information technology concepts. Students should learn Free Software options for each task to gain technological competence and autonomy. Training students to use proprietary products makes them dependent on software companies. Educational institutes should refrain from this practice. Free Software is the key to teaching students programming. Students should be taught Free Software because this way they can read the source code of a program and learn how it operates. This is paramount for students who are self-taught programmers. Writing code requires reading a lot of code. Using programs with hidden source code can sabotage learning, while Free Software lets everyone see in the finest detail how a program works. Schools should use Free Software in their technological infrastructure Educational institutes aim to convey a set of higher values to students, including freedom, equality, and solidarity. Free Software is a practice in information technology that embodies those values. People have the freedom to shape their technical infrastructure. People are free to improve the program themselves and share their contributions with others. Everyone is equal in this process. Free Software communities have a spirit of helping others. Formal education should not overlook the pedagogical potential in Free Software. Schools should encourage teachers of all courses to prefer Free Software when they make use of technology. The technological infrastructure of educational institutes should also rely on Free Software. We further explain why we need Free Software in eduction in our argumentation page. You might also be interested in our children's book about Free Software, our coding competition for teenagers, or a campaign (DE) about Free Software in education. You can also help us collect material introducing programming to children by adding information in our wiki. If you agree that students should learn Free Software and schools should use Free Software, please share this page. Support Free Software in Education for a future generation with better programmers and better citizens.

Suffering is quite naturally the least appealing part of human experience. Suffering isn’t just pain, it isn’t just a physical experience, it isn’t just sadness. Suffering applies to every way we are deprived of what is good. Sin is suffering because by choosing what seems to be good over what is really good, we deprive ourselves. Jesus takes all forms of human suffering upon Himself so that we may never find ourselves alone when we suffer. Jesus even takes upon Himself the suffering due to sin – though He Himself never sinned. He allowed Himself to be condemned and punished as a criminal, as a sacrifice – the Innocent One – so that we sinners might find refuge in Him. The One who was without sin became sin so that He might destroy it once and for all in His flesh. His body, broken on the Cross, is the image of our broken soul – broken by sin and suffering. The divinity of Christ – a sure support and powerful force of healing – carries the brokenness and weakness of Christ’s flesh all the way through His death to the Resurrection. The reproach of St. Paul is devastating and it is hard to not hear how it echoes in our own day. Once immorality becomes known the Church has a responsibility to root it out – if we do not and try to justify it out of pride, the whole lump of us will rot. We have nothing to boast about as a Church if we begin to condone what is wrong or simply fail to pronounce judgement in a way that demonstrates clearly that sin separates us from God. The Church can only remain attached to Her Spouse if she detaches Herself from sin. On the one hand, each of us are personally held accountable before God for our own sins and failings – we are called to repentance so that the Lord’s mercy may heal us and we may convert our lives with the help of His grace. On the other hand, we are collectively responsible for the holiness of the Church – this is where the practice of excommunication came from. Certain errors and sinful practices, when they become publicly known and defended must be removed, and if that means individual persons are no longer held to be in communion with the Church, it is for their good and the good of the Church. They cannot be saved if they do not understand their need to convert in order to return to communion. The Church cannot be a sacrament of salvation if it espouses the lies and practices of Satan. “Your sins are forgiven!” These words bring consolation to those of us who understand that we need forgiveness, and who understand that we have sinned. For someone who has not understood either sin or forgiveness, it could seem like mere words or like something unimportant. We don’t know exactly what thoughts passed through the mind of the paralytic because he remained silent, but Jesus’ first words to him were not about curing his paralysis. The man didn’t seem to ask for forgiveness, nor did he seem to come to Jesus looking for anything other than a cure. Certainly Jesus reads hearts and minds, however, and provides the man immediately with the treatment that corresponds to his greatest suffering. The physical suffering may have incited the man to ask to be brought to Jesus, then again, the man may have discerned the greater moral suffering he endured from his sins and relied on his physical disability to be brought by others to Jesus.

Materials certification is a vital aspect of modern manufacturing and construction processes. Whether in constructing skyscrapers, producing medical devices, or manufacturing aerospace components, certification is pivotal in ensuring product and structure safety, reliability, and longevity. This article will delve into the significance of materials certification, its key components, and the industries where it holds the most sway. What Is Materials Certification? The certification assesses and validates the quality and performance of materials used in manufacturing, construction, and other industries. It involves rigorous testing, inspection, and documentation to confirm that materials meet specified standards, regulations, and industry-specific requirements. Materials subject to certification can encompass a wide range of substances, from metals and polymers to composites and chemicals. The Key Components of Materials Certification Here are the critical components of the certification: Materials are subjected to various tests to evaluate their physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Common tests include tensile strength, hardness, flexibility, and chemical composition analysis. These tests help determine if the material meets the necessary criteria for its intended use. Inspection involves visually examining materials to identify defects, irregularities, or inconsistencies affecting their quality or performance. Inspectors may use specialized tools and equipment to assess materials accurately. Proper documentation is a fundamental part of materials certification. It includes recording the results of tests and inspections and information about the material’s source, manufacturing process, and compliance with relevant standards. This documentation serves as proof of conformity. Traceability is the ability to track the origin and history of materials throughout the supply chain. It ensures accountability and allows for the identification of any potential issues or recalls. Compliance with Standards Materials certification must adhere to industry-specific standards and regulations. These standards set the benchmarks for quality, safety, and performance, ensuring that materials meet the required criteria for their intended applications. Industries That Rely on Materials Certification Here are the industries that rely on materials certification: In the construction industry, materials certification ensures the safety and durability of buildings and infrastructure. Certified materials are used for structural components, such as steel beams and concrete, to meet building codes and safety standards. Aerospace manufacturers rely on certified materials for aircraft components. Ensuring the quality and performance of materials is critical to aviation safety. Medical device manufacturers must use certified materials to meet strict regulatory requirements. These materials are essential for patient safety and the efficacy of medical treatments. Materials certification is crucial in the automotive industry to ensure the reliability and safety of vehicles. Components like airbags, brakes, and engine parts require certified materials to meet stringent quality standards. So now you have learned about how materials certification helps in various industries. As mentioned earlier, you can learn from the post about this certification’s key components. This, in turn, helps prevent accidents, ensures product quality, and saves costs in the long run. In a world where safety and quality are paramount, materials certification is indispensable in shaping the products and infrastructure surrounding us.

Hamilton praised for using his star status for the greater good Hamilton has been particularly vocal on his social media accounts in the wake of the death of George Floyd in the United States, while he also condoned the actions of ‘Black Lives Matter’ protestors who tore down a controversial statue of slave trader Edward Colston in Bristol. While there will be those who feel it is not Hamilton’s place to address such matters, the 35-year-old has previously stated that given his millions of followers on Instagram and Twitter he has the opportunity to lend his weight on key issues such as racism. Silverstone managing director Stuart Pringle, who has long recognised Hamilton’s value in promoting the British Grand Prix over the years, feels the Mercedes driver has every right to speak out given his sporting reputation. “Lewis is a proper legend, a living legend. He’s a hero,” said Pringle, speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live. “His relationship with Silverstone is fantastic. Of course, he’s a member of the British Racing Drivers’ Club, so he’s got a bit of emotional skin in the game as well. “The crowd love him, he brings the crowd in, and as a promoter, he’s exactly what you want. “He’s a good man with a good heart and a sense of what is right in the world. Not only is he one of the greatest sportsmen this country has ever produced, but he’s now using that platform for the wider good. I have nothing but admiration for Lewis Hamilton.” Hamilton returns to the Silverstone track on Wednesday as Mercedes completes a two-day protocol test. Using the 2018 W09, the test is designed to not only reintroduce the drivers to driving again – Valtteri Bottas was in action on Tuesday – but also the race team to understanding, and working to, the new procedures in place given the Covid-19 crisis. Pringle has confirmed Hamilton has been staying on-site in his personal motorhome, adding: “I use the term motorhome in the broadest sense. “It’s the most fantastic articulated lorry, double-storied with double slide outs. I’ve never been invited in but it looks simply palatial. It looks bigger than my house.”

Google had organised the second edition of Google for India event today in Delhi. This is an initiative of Google to enhance its services in India. Today, Google announced five new products all focused around Indian market. The products launched are YouTube Go App, Google Assistant in Hindi inside the newly launched Google Allo app, faster browsing in Google Play in 2G connections, Google station Wi-Fi and finally data saving mode in Google Chrome. YouTube Go is a new app that lets users to download the video and share it locally. This app also gives the option to download the videos in various qualities and also displays the amount of data needed. This is synonymous to the YouTube offline feature but sharing it locally is a added feature. This is still in testing and is expected to reach every consumer in early 2017. Google had recently launched the Google Allo messaging application. The highlighted point of it was Google Assistant which replied to your messages and commands instantly and intelligently. But, today Amit Fulay, Group Product Manager, Google announced that this service of Google Assistant would be extended to support Hindi. This means you can communicate with the Google Assistant in Hindi. This would be an advantage for those who are fluent in Hindi and also to those who are quite weak in English. This would also be a strategic move of Google to capture the mass Hindi speaking people to use their service. This is expected to be launched by year end. The main problem in India is the connectivity issues. Most of the Indians still use the 2G connection for internet. In this newly announced feature Google tries to download the most used parts of Google Play when connected to Wi-Fi. So, this enables the user to browse easily even with low bandwidth or 2G connections. This also enhances the browsing experience. Also we get a new option called Wait For Wi-Fi where apps are installed once phone gets connected to Wi-Fi network. Following the success of installing Wi-Fi in more than 50 railway stations, Google has launched Google Station today. Caesar Sengupta, VP, Next Billion Users announced this new Wifi platform called Google Station. In this Google partners with carriers, System Integrator and the Venues, to provide high speed internet for users. This would mean that users could use high speed internet in places like Malls, Hospitals, Schools etc free of cost. This is an initiative of Google to provide connectivity till the end user. One more product announced today was the Data Saving mode in Google Chrome. This feature would be available on Mobile devices, computers and even on Chrome books. Google claims that now Chrome supports MP4 format which means there is data saving upto 67% when trying to watch a video. Also, chrome is expected to optimise the Web page when a low bandwidth or 2G connection is detected and hence saving upto 90 % of data and enhancing the browsing speed. Google has also launched the Download feature which enables the user to download images, web pages, music and videos and can be accessed when offline. They have also stated that Download would be resumed if there are any connectivity issues while downloading. These downloads can be accessed from the Chrome’s new downloaded tab. Rajan Anandan, VP, India and South East Asia emphasised on efforts by Google to give all Indians access to the Internet. He stated that to reduce gender discrimination, Google has trained over a million women across 10 states to use internet in collaboration with Tata Trust. Also, he added that they would train over 2 million college students to become an Android developer. He also said that they would be investing to establish Google Developers Code labs in various Universities across various states.

But Chord is a restless company, and Hugo is no more. Instead, please welcome to the stage Hugo 2.

With their mild flavor, the yellow perch is one of the finest pan fish. Don’t be fooled when you go to a restaurant though, because white perch, rock bass, and other sunfish are mispresented as “perch” on the menus. We accept no substitutes, and recommend that you get some yellow perch on your taste buds—preferably after you’ve reeled him in yourself. I think this goes without saying, but fish caught by your own hand always tastes better. Sink your teeth into this cool T Shirt we’ve made after the yellow perch. It’s just so darn delicious. Don't be afraid to express yourself and set sail on this fun design from Gill McFinns! Anglers and fisherman will love to spend their day fishing equipped with this design. Heavy Cotton Adult T-Shirt
