It hurts me so much to see people really believe in this crap called DIET Coke, DIET Sprite, DIET Gingerale, and the list goes on.
Does it make sense to you that this very sweet tasting drink is 0 Calories, no sugar, and supposed to keep you on a lower scale?
Let me guest, trying to stay healthy while substituting sugary drinks for diet drinks in droves of in-taking less sugar staying healthy. Well evidence has emerged to refute that rationale.
I know you all have a brain, please use it with me for a few minutes and assess how this all makes sense.
It is all ARTIFICIAL! It is all Lies.
You need more proof then what is already out there, Here you go!
A study with National Post has been done that shows that
People who drink diet soda daily are almost three times more likely to develop stroke, dementia.
I have been telling people for years now … Sweetener does not make you lose weight, it makes you GAIN weight through METABOLIC SYNDROME, You cannot burn it, you slow your fat burn process! Watch this video and see WHY?!
Many of us put off sleep when other things seem more important. However, if you knew how essential sleep is for you, you would think twice about this.
Jeff Iliff explains why sleep is so important. Why? When the brain is awake, it puts of cleaning your brain waste.
To fuel your body, it is essential to supply it with nutrients and oxygen, however in order to do so, we must be asleep. Let me explain… When we are asleep, it is the only time that our brain clears its waste through the CSF (Cerebrospinal fluid: a clear bodily fluid found in the brain and spine). CSF rushes only in the sleeping brain; and when we are awake, nothing is being cleared, but put off until the brain actually ‘sleeps’.
Sleep is the answer to waste clearance, and when we do not sleep, waste such as Amyloid beta is built up, which can contribute to development of brain disease conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and more.
Take 12 minutes of your time and watch Jeff as he describes what seems to be a very important part of our lives.

Babes covering their tits!
Posting what i have of this chick.
Longtime lurker first time poster.
Everyone wait til I'm done dumping then add anything i may be missing
Skinny girls who start gaining weight in college or whatever and get chubby/fat
Lets get a good old fashioned classy lingerie thread going. Non-nude, partly nude, nude, professional (preferably with minimal surgeries) and amateur are all welcome, lets just keep it tasteful and dclassy for a this run. I'll dump a little bit of what i have.
friend of mine, hope you like her
Hot asians thread.
Thick girls with bumpers up and down, not in the middle. No fatties or plumpers please. Keep it harmonious, no bellies.
Breast that you know feel like a cloud
Amateur/pro doesn't matter
She was in my class, she's 19
The pics I like the most are those of 3+ girls (but 2 will also do) spreading their legs together, so you get to compare their pussies and faces.

We always say it — music & sports go hand in hand. Ever wonder what your favorite NBA players are listening to in their headphones while getting ready for a game?! This list randomly comes out, but now we have an updated list from LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kevin Garnett & more. Check it out…
“I listen to Lorde, Drake, Kanye West, Portishead, Zero 7, Colbie Caillat—it depends on my mood,” Garnett said. “I always listen to music before a game…it’s like yoga or meditation—it calms me and puts me in a better place.”
…LeBron James said he likes to listen to contemporaries like Drake, Kendrick Lamar and Bruno Mars while relaxing, but turns up the old-school nastiness when game time nears.
“Before a game, I’ll listen to pretty much the same thing, but with more throwback hip-hop: Biggie, Tupac, Rakim, Nas, N.W.A., DMX,” James said. “But if I could name one artist to get me charged up to play, it would be Jay Z.”
“I listen to a lot of pop and R&B. I like Katy Perry, Charles Brown, Drake and Beyonce,” Westbrook said.
“I play different stuff; a lot of R&B, some old-school hip-hop and new-school hip-hop—it depends on the game and the environment. I have a recording studio, and I’m really interested in how music is made. [Eventually], when I’m done playing, I can see getting involved with developing artists and helping them elevate themselves to a higher level.”
The Los Angeles Clippers’ Chris Paul likes Jay Z. The Washington Wizards’ John Wall favors rappers Lil Durk, Future, Meek Mill, and Rich Homie Quan. Los Angeles Laker Kobe Bryant is a fan of Jay Z, the Notorious B.I.G., and Nas.

The internet filters on my Funamo accountability app aren't working. What am I doing wrong?
I installed the app and the browser. I saved my settings on the app and made sure the content filtering box was selected. I went to the browser and tested it, but it wasn't blocking any content. I also tried the proxy, but that didn't work either (I'm not sure if my android supports it). Any help you could give would be appreciated.
Please make sure
1. Funamo protection is turned on. Open Funamo on your device, login and click "Start Funamo" to enable Funamo protection. When Funamo protection is on, you should see a dark-blue F logo on the notification bar at the top of your device. If you pull it down, you should see "Funamo protection is on".
2. Please make sure that you are using Funamo Safe Browser to browse the web rather than the default browser that came with your device. Make sure that you enable "Block other browsers" option under Account settings. Here is the link to the instructions with a video tutorial on how to setup Funamo.

After receiving a cease-and-desist notice, a WXFT Fox 4—a TV station in Fort Myers, FL—“pulled an ad backed by billionaire Tom Steyer that targeted Gov. Rick Scott (R).” The Hill,
“The ad, paid for by Steyer’s NextGen Climate group, claimed Scott had benefited from oil drilling near the Everglades and received $200,000 from the industry, but didn’t specify any company.
“Scott’s campaign shot back at the accusations, stating the ad was referring to the Dan A Hughes Co., from which the state’s environmental protection office has revoked drilling permits and filed a lawsuit against during the governor’s tenure.
“In a cease-and-desist letter sent to the TV station last week, Scott’s counsel said the ad contained “false, misleading, and defamatory information” about Scott.”

Yaphet Kotto believes in aliens. The statement would be easy enough to take in on its own if not for the fact that Mr. Kotto also believes he's seen an alien, held an alien, and generally accepts that he's been abducted by aliens.
Season 1, Episode 3
First Aired 2/7/2003
In this episode of Penn and Teller: Bullshit!, the topic of alien abductions is looked into. We look into the stories of those who claim to have been abducted by aliens and shows the influence these stories can have on people. Penn and Teller will also visit an alien abduction therapy group where they explain their stories while the person who listens is making tons of money! A seminar and alien events will also be visited, where alien books, products and many items are being sold. Famous speakers such as David Icke will be offered a chance to explain their theories, as well as other famous conspiracy and alien speakers.

The airfield and facility around Groom Lake has been finally disclosed as an official Air Force site.
Yeah, sure. In a couple of years they'll admit to little green men but not the tall silver guys who steal organs from cattle.

A Missouri rancher is getting tired of making disturbing discoveries on her Henry County land. Lyn Mitchell said she is out of reasonable explanations for what's to blame for killing her livestock. With all other reasonable causes debunked, Mitchell said she is open to the possibility that extraterrestrial life could be responsible.
A couple reportedly called police four times within a seven-hour period last week insisting that alien-like creatures had invaded their Elliot Drive home, noting the situation was creating havoc in their lives.
That astonishingly awesome claim comes from Dr. Richard B. Hoover, an astrobiologist at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, who says he has found conclusive evidence of alien life - fossils of bacteria found in an extremely rare class of meteorite called CI1 carbonaceous chondrites.

NASA will be holding a press conference this Thursday. What's it about? They're not saying specifically, but they say it will have major bearing on our quest for extraterrestrial life, and advance the field of astrobiology. Hmmm.

So I watched Stephen Hawking's alien show on Discovery last night - fascinating stuff, and he makes a compelling argument for their existence. However, warns Hawking, if we ever come across any we shouldn't let them see us, lest they come ravage us for our resources.

An official announcement by the Obama administration disclosing the reality of extraterrestrial life is imminent. For several months, senior administration officials have been quietly deliberating behind closed doors how much to disclose to the world about extraterrestrial life.
Authorities have called off a search after determining that they don't know what the object is at the bottom of the Ottawa River, which several people reported as 'lights smashing into the water with a thunderous boom'. All they claim to know is that it isn't an airplane.
Dorothy Willows - who lives half a mile from the scene of the hit-and-run - was in her car when "strange lights" loomed in the evening sky.
She was among dozens who spotted the mysterious flashing orangey-yellow spheres over Lincolnshire - where the turbine was left wrecked. Dorothy, of Louth, said: "The lights were moving across the sky towards the wind farm. Then I saw a low flying object. It was skimming across the sky towards the turbines."
Hours later there was an almighty smash.

Iowa's operating while intoxicated law prohibits driving under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, including marijuana. In drunk driving cases, police use breath, blood or urine tests to determine a person's blood alcohol concentration. But is there a test to detect the presence of marijuana in a person's blood?
Tests for alcohol and drug ingestion don't directly measure the amount of alcohol or drugs in a person's bloodstream. Instead, they measure the concentration of byproducts, known as metabolites, that are left behind when alcohol or drugs metabolize in the blood.
Alcohol metabolizes fairly quickly in the bloodstream, and so breath and other tests for alcohol impairment are considered accurate measures of impairment. But marijuana takes far longer to metabolize. Marijuana metabolites may be present in the bloodstream for hours or even days after the user was actually impaired by the drug. This makes no difference under Iowa's OWI law, however.
Iowa has a zero tolerance standard for driving under the influence of illegal drugs. If a person has any detectable amount of marijuana metabolites in their bloodstream, they can theoretically be charged with OWI. Proof of actual impairment is not required.
However, Iowa's OWI statute also requires the state Department of Public Safety to apply nationally recognized standards for determining when a driver has detectable levels of an illegal drug in their bloodstream. Currently, the only such standard is for a particular metabolite of marijuana, found in urine but not in blood. As a practical matter, a driver is unlikely to be prosecuted in Iowa unless they have more than 50 nanograms per milliliter of this particular metabolite in their urine.
When a person is charged with OWI based on marijuana use, there are a number of defenses that can be raised. These include many of the defenses that can be raised in alcohol-related OWI cases, such as the accuracy of the testing equipment, the legality of the initial traffic stop and others.

In the last episode of Agga Bai Sasubai, Abhijeet calls Asawari to ask about Soham and tells her that he has come downstairs. Asawari meets him and apologizes to him for leaving food. Abhijeet then tells her that she doesn’t need to be sorry because she has done a lot for him. He then tells her that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her and proposes her for marriage. Asawari is shocked to hear this as she did not expect that something like this would ever happen.
Watch the latest episode of the show below:
In tonight’s episode, Asawari is shocked to hear that Abhijeet wants to marry her. She remembers the time when Ajoba got annoyed with Madan when he told Ajoba about his marriage. She then leaves without saying anything.
Asawari comes home and tells Shubhra that Abhijeet shouldn’t have proposed to her for marriage because it is not her age to get married. The latter asks her why is it compulsory that one should not consider getting married after a certain age. She also tells her that Abhijeet loves her unconditionally and has taken a lot of efforts to be with her. Asawari agrees to everything but says that she cannot leave Ajoba and Soham because they are her responsibility. She then asks Shubhra to go and tell Abhijeet about her decision and console him.
On the other hand, Pradnya watches Abhijeet proposing Asawari and thinks of telling it to Ajoba and Soham. She then goes to see Soham who is acting as if he is injured. Pradnya tells Soham that from the time Asawari has become friends with Abhijeet, she does not give him attention. Hearing this Soham feels suspicious. Shubhra comes downstairs and tells Abhijeet that they will have to give some time to Asawari. Abhijeet says that he is ready to wait for her for a lifetime.
What do you think will happen next? Keep watching to find out!

Myanmar's Foreign Exchange Market: Controls, Reforms, and Informal Market
This is the first book dedicated to the scrutinization of Myanmar's unofficial foreign exchange market, its roots in restrictive administrative controls on foreign exchange and international trade, and its effects on the country’s economic performance. This book integrates vast pieces of records and data with first-hand information from extensive fieldwork to create an overall picture of the chaotic but seemingly efficient foreign exchange market in Myanmar, a transitional economy in Southeast Asia whose economic systems had been less known due to its isolation until recently. This book illustrates how the unofficial foreign exchange market emerged during the country’s transition to a market-based economy, how informal currency deals proliferated under restrictive controls, and why they persist despite the significant economic reforms since 2011. Refuting the conventional wisdom of foreign exchange policy reforms, this research clarifies path-dependent features of foreign exchange market systems, and it discusses possible solutions for modernizing economic systems. This book is highly recommended to readers who seek an in-depth analytical narrative about informal economic activities and foreign exchange policy reforms in a fragile state.
1 Introductory Chapter: Myanmar’s Foreign Exchange Market-Controls, Reforms, and Informal Market
2 Piecemeal Reforms in the 1990s and Forex Market Segmentation between State and Private Sectors
3 Unofficial Forex Market and Informal Economic Activities under Exchange Restrictions on the Private Sector
4 Import Controls, Natural Resource Booms, and Extraordinary Real Exchange Rate Appreciation in 2007–2011
5 Foreign Exchange Market Reform since 2011: Linkage between the Official and Unofficial Markets
6 Informal Currency Deals and New Official Customer Dealing: Who Chooses Which?
7 Concluding Chapter: Prospects for Modernizing the Foreign Exchange Market

There are lots of toxins that could be lurking in your living room, bathroom or kitchen that could cause serious health problems for Fluffy or Fido and may even prove fatal. Many things that we consider “safe” may actually be toxic to our pets. In support of National Poison Prevention Week, March 20-26, here is a PurinaCare claim that is a perfect example.
All it took was a quick trip to the store by her owner for Carmen, a one-year-old, two and a half pound Chihuahua, to find trouble. In the few minutes Carmen was left alone, she climbed onto her owner’s desk and ate four pieces, two milligrams, of nicotine gum, leaving behind only the paper wrappers.
The pet owner, a veterinarian’s daughter, acted on instinct, dabbing two teaspoons of hydrogen peroxide on Carmen’s tongue to induce vomiting. Although the Chihuahua started to vomit small pieces of the gum, she had also ingested xylitol, an artificial sweetener found in many products that carry the ‘sugar-free’ label, like gum, mints and chewable vitamins. Dogs that ingest xylitol can develop life threatening symptoms like liver failure, bleeding and clotting disorders and sudden hypoglycemia very quickly.
Although she had eaten only four pieces of the gum (two milligrams of active ingredients) this was more than ten times the toxic level of nicotine and xylitol for a dog her size. Carmen spent four days in critical condition while veterinarians monitored her glucose levels and flushed her system with IV fluids. When she was released, the doctors warned that Carmen would still be at risk of sudden liver failure for several weeks. The cost of this emergency visit and follow-up care: $1,440.
Luckily, this pet owner had invested in the PurinaCare accident and illness pet insurance policy when she bought Carmen. This was the first claim ever filed for Carmen, so the owner paid the annual deductible and co-insurance, while PurinaCare reimbursed more than $900.
This is only one of thousands of examples of how pet insurance can help pet owners save money on the rising cost of veterinary care – but more importantly, it is an example of how having pet insurance gives owners peace of mind in making the decision to do what is best for their pet without worrying about cost.

So here are the nominees for the first award:
(1) The Associated Press for butchering a line from Justice Antonin Scalia's dissent in the Texas sodomy decision. The AP quoted Scalia as saying he has "nothing against homosexuals." This misquote was endlessly recycled in news stories and commentaries, usually to mock Scalia for a gay version of "some of my best friends are Jews."
What Scalia actually wrote was this: "I have nothing against homosexuals, or any other group, promoting their agenda through normal democratic means." He wasn't offering his feelings about gays (he is on the non-touchy-feely wing of the court). He was talking about the rights of all groups to organize and lobby.
(2) Maureen Dowd, for her quote from President Bush saying that al-Qaida and the terrorist groups of 9/11 are not a problem any more. ("That group of terrorists who attacked our country is slowly but surely being decimated. ... They're not a problem any more." -- Dowd's version of Bush in her New York Times column of May 14).
Here is the full Bush quote, without the three misleading dots: "Al-Qaida is on the run. That group of terrorists who attacked our country is slowly, but surely, being decimated. Right now, about half of all the top al-Qaida operatives are either jailed or dead. In either case, they're not a problem any more."
(3) The BBC, probably the most relentlessly anti-American organization in Britain, recently altered a transcript of one of its own stories, thus misquoting itself. The story dealt with Park Jong-lin, a 70-year-old veteran of the Korean War who "served in the North Korean army fighting against the imperialist American aggressors and their South Korean accomplices." In the altered version quote marks now surround "imperialist American aggressors" and the BBC's reference to "accomplices" was changed to "allies."
Prediction: Because Internet bloggers now watch the wayward BBC carefully, more touched-up transcripts will come to light. The BBC, by the way, falsely reported the Jessica Lynch rescue as a made-for-TV special faked with U.S. soldiers firing blanks for the cameras. (Change that transcript!)
(4) The Democrats, for a TV ad in Madison, Wis., misquoting President Bush's uranium reference in his State of the Union message. The Republicans have offered so many conflicting versions of Bush's now-famous 16 words that you would think that the Democrats wouldn't have bothered to remove the first six words crediting (or blaming) British intelligence for the uranium-from-Africa report. But they did. The ad has Bush saying flatly, "Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."
(5) The French, for changing an apparently anti-American remark made on July 21 by President Jacques Chirac. In Malaysia to meet with Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamed, Chirac called for multilateralism in world affairs, then added: "We can no longer accept the law of the strongest, the law of the jungle." When a reporter called the Elysee Palace to ask about the reference, he found that the quote showed up on their transcript as, "We can no longer accept the evolution of men, the world, we can no longer accept the simple law of the strongest."
Oh, I get it. Chirac wasn't attacking America or the war in Iraq. He was just sharing his abstract opinion on faulty evolutionary theories and social Darwinism.
So who deserves the award? One vote here for the AP. It can't be that the reporter somehow failed to notice the second half of Scalia's sentence. At Slate, Dahlia Lithwick wrote that this was "a case of the media getting a quote completely wrong and disseminating it so that it becomes universally believed." Give the award to the AP. It's a statuette of Nathan Hale, with his famous quote, "I regret that I have but one life."

Exotic Fruit Market’s Braeburn apples are a cross
between a Granny Smith and Lady Hamilton. The fruit has a red vertical streaky
exterior, with a yellow-green to creamy yellow flesh. They have a very crisp
texture but deliver a juicy sweet and tangy flavor. Apples have many health
benefits, providing a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C with no
saturated fat, cholesterol, or sodium.
Braeburn Apples are a good source of fiber and
vitamin C. Braeburn Apples also contain polyphenols, which have numerous health
benefits. Braeburn Apples aid weight loss in several ways. Braeburn Apples are particularly
filling due to their high fiber content. Braeburn Apples promote heart health
in several ways. Braeburn Apples are high in soluble fiber, which helps lower
cholesterol. Braeburn Apples also have polyphenols, which are linked to lower
blood pressure and stroke risk. Eating Braeburn Apples are linked to a lower
risk of type 2 diabetes. This is possibly due to their polyphenol antioxidant
content. The type of fiber in Braeburn Apples feeds good bacteria and may be
the reason they protect against obesity, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.
Exotic Fruit Market’s Braeburn Apple originated in
New Zealand in the 1950s and was named after Braeburn Orchards where it was
first grown. It has now spread to all the major apple producing areas of the
world. Today, in the largest apple-producing state in the USA, Washington,
where Red Delicious and Golden Delicious have always held sway, the Braeburn is
now in the top 5 varieties produced. It serves as one of the most important
commercial apple varieties not only in the United States but also much of the
world. The Braeburn is one of the modernly large-scale produced apples where
the flavor is genuinely equal to that of the classic apple varieties. The
Braeburn is absolutely wonderful. Its crisp without being hard, has vibrantly
complex apple flavors, and is delightfully juicy. These apples are delicious
for eating out of hand, and also are great for baking with.
Exotic Fruit Market’s Braeburn is a Dessert apple
with a capital D. It’s the perfect balance of sweetness, never overly sugary
and the flavors are complex and exciting, and to top it off, it has a
refreshing crisp flesh. Braeburn is at its best when it’s cooled a little below
The sweet-tart flavor of the Exotic Fruit Market’s Braeburn
apple mellows just slightly when cooked and will compliment both sweet and
savory preparations. Roast along with root vegetables or sauté and serve atop
pork. They can be slow cooked and pureed to make sauces, jams, and preserves.
Braeburn apples hold their shape well when cooked as well. Bake into pies,
crisps, cakes, or hollow and stuff to make baked apples. Chopped Braeburn apple
will add sweetness and texture to bread, pancakes, and muffins. Braeburn apples
are slow to brown when cut making them perfect for use in raw preparations.
When raw their flavor and crisp texture is best when served slightly chilled.
Slice and add to salads and sandwiches or serve on a cheese board.

Consider this cautionary tale: A large company sends out T4s with social insurance numbers on the outside of the envelope. The breach is obviously an accident, but the cost in reputation and relationships is serious business.
Payroll gaffes like this one serve as a wake-up call. Mistakes happen, and they can happen to you just as easily as they happen to a large company. A technical glitch on the wrong day of the month could cause you to miss payroll. Or worse, an arithmetic error could unpleasantly surprise employees with miscalculated take-home pay.
BDO can minimize your risk of careless, unnecessary, and costly errors. However, if you experience a payroll gaffe before signing on to our payroll services, here’s some damage control advice.

Introduction to Genealogy
You are going to find a great amount of study material available for the
genealogist. The sheer volume of material someone wants you to read is
Almost all of them want to sell you something.
The Web is growing so fast it is a total waste of time to write a
hard-copy book. Everything will have changed by the time the book makes it

Library. I certainly wouldn't buy anything at the moment.

Welcome back, Part 1: Bill Walton was in vintage form in his first game back on ESPN last week. He'll make his Pac-12 Network debut calling Stanford-UCLA on Saturday. As Richard Deitsch details at SI.com, Walton's back pain was so bad about five years ago that he considered suicide. After surgery in February 2009, Walton is pain-free.
Welcome back, Part 2: Hannah Storm co-hosted the Rose Parade on ABC three weeks after suffering severe burns in a gas-grill accident at her Connecticut home. Storm had first-degree burns to her face and neck, losing her eyebrows, eyelashes and roughly half her hair, per the Associated Press. Her courage is admirable.
Welcome back, Part 3: The PGA Tour season begins this weekend with the Hyundai Tournament of Champions on NBC and the Golf Channel. Storm's hard-working husband, Dan Hicks, will fly to Hawaii to broadcast the final two rounds (Sunday and Monday) after calling the Bengals-Texans game Saturday.

A week or two ago I noticed a very large number of Black Fly colonising on my Runner Beans, Peas and few plants around the garden. I haven't had the time to do anything about it, but even if I had, I am reluctant to spray chemicals, even 'safe' ones.
Yesterday I went to inspect my 'veg' and the Black Fly didn't seem quite as bad as it had been. Then I saw the reason. As I watched, a 'Ladybird' appeared from beneath a leaf. A moment later, another one. When I inspected the plants more closely I found many Ladybirds munching away on those horrible little black flies. Hurray, the cavalry had arrived.
Now, being a complete ignoramus in such matters, I do need to look up why Ladybirds come in different colours and varieties. Most of mine are orange with black spots, there are a few of the traditional red with black spots, and just the odd one of the black with orange spot variety. I seem to recall reading somewhere that there is a variety of Ladybird that is not so nice and not so beneficial in the garden, but I can't recall the details now. I'll go and do some research as soon as I can but, in the meantime, if you know more about this then please leave a comment.

The HI98108 pHep+ pH tester provides high accuracy measurements in a rugged pocket-sized design. This meter features an exposed temperature sensor that will provide rapid automatic temperature compensated measurements. The simple two-button operation provides one button for ON/OFF, the other for calibration. Being lightweight and only 0.7" thick, the pHep+ is extremely ergonomic and fits comfortably in your hand.
Large, Easy-to-Read Display
Simplified Two Button Operation
Extractable Cloth Junction to Extend pH Electrode Life
The HI98108 tester features a large multi-level LCD which displays both pH and temperature readings simultaneously. The pH readings are displayed with a 0.01 pH resolution and with an accuracy of ±0.10 pH. The pH range of the HI98108 is from 0.00 to 14.00 pH. An exposed temperature sensor allows for rapid automatic temperature compensated pH measurements. Temperature can be set to display in ℃ or ℉. The LCD screen has stability and calibration tag indicators. The battery percent level is displayed at start up alerting the user to the remaining battery power that is available.
The pH electrode uses a unique reference cell design that utilizes an extractable cloth junction. A clogged junction will typically exhibit erratic readings that will not stabilize. Simply extracting a small portion of cloth from the meter will clear any clog by exposing a fresh, clean surface. The ability to clear any clogging will extend the life of the pH electrode.
Calibration is performed by pressing the dedicated calibration button. Once in calibration mode the pH electrode can be calibrated to 1 or 2 points using the pre-programmed standard buffers (pH 4.01, 7.01,10.01). When the standard value is recognized and stability is reached, the meter automatically accepts and stores the calibration value.
Setup options include automatic shut off timing and temperature unit displayed. Automatic shut-off options are to turn the meter off after 8 minutes, 60 minutes, or disabled. To enter the setup mode the user presses a button located in the battery compartment.
The large LCD displays pH, Temperature, Calibration buffer tags, battery level and instability indicator.

Some of us cannot fathom living anywhere other than where we always have. On the other end of the spectrum are those who move once a year or so and are experts at packing, moving and re-settling. For the rest in the middle, it can be a bit daunting facing a new house with empty rooms (well, empty except for boxes…everywhere). Or perhaps some are setting up a new household for the first time and have no idea where to start.
Personally, I hate the chaos of moving, but I LOVE the excitement and fresh start. A blank slate teems with possibilities. That love also carries over into occasionally refreshing my existing rooms, because the physical space has a great impact on home life and health.
For those in the middle or starting out, here are a few tips to help you with the practical side of making a house a home.
Set up one space as a haven. This is for just after a move. Everything is in a state of upheaval. You can only take that so long. The rest your soul, mind and body need to keep going can be helped by taking some time to create one comfortable space. When I was single, this was usually my bedroom; in a family situation, that is often the kitchen out of necessity and for maximum impact. Unpack what is needed there. Set it up approximately how you would like it — at least enough to look nice — and then remove all vestiges of a recent move. When you walk into the room, you should be able to briefly forget the mess everywhere else in the house and just live.
Get things on the walls to make it feel homey. As soon as you can after moving, put pictures or art on the walls. You will feel warm and comfortable when your beautiful items are visible. You will feel like you belong when your favorite family pictures surround you. It doesn’t take long, but you will notice the difference quickly. Don’t worry too much about location; pick a pleasant, reasonable spot and put it up. You can always rearrange when everything is settled and you fine-tune your rooms.
Color coordination pays off. Whether you are moving or just refreshing your home, colors are key. Not all of us have an artist’s eye, but there are other options. Hardware stores, magazines, IKEA stores and Pinterest all have plenty of ideas that you can straight-up copy if you like.
As a bare minimum, you can use neutrals as a base, and then get help with arranging furniture and accents in each room. This is a good option for budget restrictions and for those who like more frequent change. A neutral wall can be touched up for many years, saving on paint expense, and still look like a new room every so often with just a few changes. Asking for help could mean a professional, but this also could be an opportunity to team with a friend or build a relationship with an acquaintance or neighbor.
Comfortable seating and spaces are a must. When you move into a new house, rooms can tend to feel more like a storage unit than a home. Quickly making at least a few seats (that aren’t piles of boxes) available will start nudging the needle closer to “home” on the dial.
Past move-in time, this is still true. Your home is not a museum; you live in it. Remember to allow for comfortable seating in each of your room arrangements. This ranges from a side chair in the guest room, to a dining room table everyone loves to linger around, to a counter stool or kitchen table that makes it easy for the kitchen to be the heart of the home. The living room especially needs to be welcoming in its comfort. This are all good opportunities to encourage conversation and relationship in your home.
Not all of us are gifted interior designers, but little things like these make a big difference. We all can have that impact out of love for our families, friends, church and neighbors.

You can change your city from here. We serve personalized stories based on the selected city. Ravi Kishan Shukla, 43, may have taken up Bhojpuri films as he had no work in Bollywood, but Bhojpuri films got him the superstar status, along with the respect and the money.
He has high self-respect and is deeply emotional. He feels that if you give him love, he will become your servant.
Tennis players hookup other tennis players
If you give him respect, he will return more than what he gets. He believes he is like a typical crab, which, when hurt, gets into its shell that may not be good for the world he belongs to. He would rather sit and pray for work as against sucking up for it. Despite having done over films, he is simple at heart. His wife Preeti, who he met in Class XI, has remained his partner in struggle.
Ahead of his upcoming film Bullett Raja, he talks about his maverick side, the political Bihari and why he would like to be a woman in his next life.
How did you get into films? I was born and brought up in a 10x12 sq ft chawl in Santacruz.
Saran (director) – Saran is...
We are five siblings and I was the youngest of them. My father was a priest and had a small dairy business. When I was 10, due to a dispute between my father and his brother, the dairy had to be shut down, as a result of which we moved back to his hometown, Jaunpur in UP. I stayed in Jaunpur for seven years and was simply not interested in studying. We just had some land on which we would do farming and were very poor.
We lived in a mud house and could not even afford a sari for my mother on Diwali. I hated the thought of not being in Mumbai and felt I would either die or turn mad or become a goonda. But I watched a lot of Amitabh Bachchan movies and that encouraged and
Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction me a lot. Ahead of his upcoming film...
And I realised how for guys like me, who had no backing, no education, no teacher in life, cinema became my teacher. I was also a part of Ramleela, where I played the role of Sita. I believe that God plans your life. I then stayed in our old 10x12 sq ft place and met an old friend Hriday Shetty, who introduced me to a filmmaker. I got my first B-grade film Pitambar and made my first I bought a bike and started struggling.
I was recognised after Tere Naam, where I coincidentally played the role of
Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction priest. You are from UP. How did you get into Bhojpuri cinema? There was a time when I was not making money in Bollywood and I was then offered a Bhojpuri film. I called my mom. We speak Awadhi at home that is close to Bhojpuri. Tamil cinema has seen many...
I had no house till then and no money. But Bhojpuri cinema gave me the respect, recognition and money. I bought back my 10x12 sq ft place that was earlier on the pagdi system, made it into a much bigger place and gifted it to my sister.
My parents now live in a bungalow like a raja and rani and entire Jaunpur comes and clicks pictures with them. People have now started naming their kids
Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction Kishen. Being a big star of Bhojpuri cinema got me Bigg Boss that made me famous. What are Biharis like? They are aggressive, happy and political. Bolte hain ki UP aur Bihar mein maa ke pet me hi politics samajh jate hain.
From morning to evening, they love reading newspapers. They want to earn only enough to manage their food and are not over ambitious. I recently went to a mall in Patna, where this fan wanted to jump from above to just touch me. For them, I am everything and they know everything about me. I dance and cry with them on Chhath puja.
Your father never supported you at one time. What does he feel today? He feels I am God born in the house.
Letika Saran (right), Director General...
I never felt angry towards him. He used to hit me and I used to love it.
Had he not hit me, I could have turned to drugs, or made bad friends or become a womaniser and would have certainly gone wayward in life. He also taught me the habit of getting up early in the morning. Has his being a priest impacted your spirituality? Yes and none of my other siblings are as spiritual as I am. He taught me everything about life, woman, maya, attachment, detachment and sex in a polished indirect manner.
He used to tell me save your mind and your body. He was very strict about being a one- woman man. I am a full Shiva bhakt. Talk about your connection with dance? When I was eight, I
Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction go crazy dancing in marriages. During Ganpati, I would dance on the street all night. I loved music and would be mad about dancing. Ganesh Acharya and I used to dance together in a cottage in Santacruz railway colony when we were young and I would borrow a few steps from him.
Talk about your Shiva connection? I am a Shiva devotee and am crazy. There are a few people I like to meet, but I get powerful when I am alone. I connect with people, but after sometime I need to be on my own. I sometimes stay alone, away from the crew in a secluded hotel and feel happy. I am my own company and connect with God up there. I can connect with my body and nature. I will run in a jungle, will put on music and dance and sit alone and cry for long.
I know that the world is all maya and will go away. I also know that I don't have a godfather and am an ordinary-looking guy, so there has to be a supreme power above that made me. I am most attached only to the black camera and that is what gives me shanti.
Eleven years back, there was a period of four months when I had no work. I would keep smelling my makeup "Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction" and cry just thinking about the time it would be applied on my face again. If I had an option to choose between a lot of money and acting, I would choose acting, as I feel without it, I would die. Cinema means life to me. I feel scared of putting on weight or having a double chin as that might stop getting me work.
Do you have friends in the industry? Saif has been a friend for 16 years. He is crazy and mad and understands me.
Shriya Saran (pronounced [ʂrɪjaː sərən]...
He makes me laugh. Even though we are from different worlds, he too loves my craziness and likes me as an actor and finds me honest. He is a nawab and
Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction be he can see that I can never ask for work from anyone and will not pile onto you.
I like his wacky sense of humour and he loves mine and we are comfortable with each other. Is there somewhere a woman in you? There is a strong woman in me. Maybe the percentage of woman in me is more. Maybe, being a Shiva devotee helps me.
And that is why I can take so many avatars in front of the camera.
Tamil director saran wife sexual dysfunction was shocked and told me how I looked so beautiful performing like a woman.
I would always get close to women, be it my mother, my wife, my daughters or my co-actors. I know what they are going through and can empathise with them. I worship my daughters and touch their feet. I am a crazy man and can do many things many times. Maybe in my next life, I would like to be born a woman.

At the end of the last legislative session, Republican lawmakers congratulated themselves for work on a Health and Human Services budget bill that they said dramatically slowed the rate of spending growth.
But one of the ways they've put the breaks on spending is to require seniors to receive counseling before they enter assisted living facilities and other senior housing. And representatives of the long-term care industry complain that the mandate represents government overreach enacted by legislators with no public debate.
Lawmakers and officials with the Department of Human Services say the counseling is necessary because a family's decision about long-term care for a loved one can affect the state budget.
In some instances, seniors and their families make rushed and uninformed decisions when choosing a facility. In other cases, financially tapped-out seniors end up relying on taxpayer support through the state Medical Assistance program.
"The challenge is to place people in the correct site," said state Rep. Jim Abeler, R-Anoka, chairman of the House Health and Human Services Committee. "If you actually do that, it's actually less expensive and a better quality of life for the people."
"It's a necessary direction that we have to go."
The cost of long-term care will only grow as the state's population gets older, Abeler said in defending the counseling. "It's a necessary direction that we have to go if we're going to manage our system."
Minnesota budget officials say the required counseling will save the state $3.8 million over the next two years, as part of the $11 billion Health and Human Services budget.
But the move has angered those who work in long-term care facilities.
Patti Cullen, president and CEO of CareProviders of Minnesota, said the mandated counseling is government overreach. She's upset that the budget proposal was never debated in the Legislature.
"It didn't come up as a bill. It didn't come up as an amendment. It didn't come up as a topic," Cullen said. "We didn't bring it up. It wasn't in the governor's budget. It wasn't anywhere. It showed up in the cone of silence."
Gov. Mark Dayton and Republican legislative leaders negotiated budget bills behind closed doors in a Capitol complex that was locked to the public. Supporters of the counseling requirement say it was proposed in past legislative sessions but it never made it into law.
"It didn't come up as a bill. It didn't come up as an amendment. It didn't come up as a topic."
Cullen, whose group represents 600 long-term care facilities in Minnesota, said she doesn't think the counseling service should be required. She isn't opposed to seniors receiving more information but said she doesn't understand why everyone -- including those who are going to pay for long-term care with their own money -- must be forced to receive such counseling.
"This is not like, 'I'm going to a spa. I'm going to a resort. I'm going on a cruise,'" Cullen said. "This is, 'I'm too old and frail to take care of myself.' This is a difficult move."
Cullen said the program should include exemptions so emergency placements or weekend transfers from a hospital aren't slowed down because of the new rules.
Department of Human Services Assistant Commissioner Loren Coleman said his department is still working on the rules. But he said state officials do not intend to delay placements.
Coleman also said people can opt out of the counseling, but only after they give government officials personal information like their name, date of birth and address. They will then be given a numerical code that has to be on file in their new residence.
Long-term care consultations are already required for people entering a nursing home, said Coleman. And she thinks some consumers might find the counseling helpful.
Both Coleman and Abeler say they're willing to fine-tune the law after they start receiving feedback on the counseling. The new law takes effect on Oct. 1.

I loved working with #AtHomeStores for this Christmas porch makeover! They provided compensation, but all opinions are absolutely my own. #sponsored
Since we moved into our house four years ago, I have worked each holiday season to make the spaces throughout festive and cozy, while remaining somewhat minimalist. Last year, I finally got to the point that every room felt like “home” – a Christmasy version of home.
The one place I struggled with though, was the front porch. My husband takes care of the outdoor lighting, but any other decorations out there are usually my doing. I looked several places last year for inspiration – namely home and garden stores with vast selections of outdoor decor – but came up empty. There were plenty of great decorations from which to choose, but nothing seemed to come together in a theme I really loved.
I spent some time the last few days perusing the seasonal section of the At Home website, and love that they have things listed not only by type of item (lighted decor, yard stakes and signs, porch trees, etc), but also by collection or theme, and even by size! With a smaller porch than we had for many years, the last option was super helpful.
Armed with a list of my favorite items, I headed to my local At Home store. I picked up a few necessities for inside the house, but the focus of my trip was knocking out the holiday decorations for the front porch once and for all. Or, you know, at least for the year.
Want to see what my kiddos and I came up with?!
OUR HOLIDAY FRONT PORCH MAKEOVER
I found myself drawn time and again to the “Fairytale Forest” line. It has just right balance of outdoorsy decor and glitter, while still looking relatively classic.
At Home had several wreaths from which to choose, even within the Fairytale Forest line. We landed on this one, to replace a wreath of a similar size.
There is a huge selection of garland, too – some with lots of decor (poinsettias, ornaments, pine cones, and other items in a variety of colors), and others that are plain greenery or flocked needles. I chose a relatively simple one with berries and pine cones that tied in well to the wreath.
Finally, I just had to have a set of these lighted gift decorations. The store offers nearly a dozen colors and styles, and the vine version complements the Fairytale Forest line really well.
SHOPPING AT HOME DURING THE HOLIDAYS
I truly loved the things I brought home, and the prices at At Home are hard to beat. My only struggle was with what was in stock; be sure to have backup ideas, or be willing to wait.
I’m still holding out for a couple of beautiful porch trees that would finish my project, but the selection was pretty well depleted when I was there. The staff was optimistic that they’d get more, but you may have to try a few times if you’re looking for something very specific.
Overall, I’m definitely looking forward to checking out what At Home has for upcoming seasons. I think it’s so unique that they offer mix and match, pre- made decorations that you can grab and go and know they work well together, as well as plenty of basics if you’re feeling a little more creative.

In a move the NFL hopes will help end the controversial protests by its players, the league has proposed committing $89M over seven years to social justice causes considered important to African-Americans. It’s the first such action ever taken by a major pro sports league.
Citing sources, ESPN reports that the league and a group of players agreed to the plan in principle after a conference call Wednesday night. The league money will go to support causes including law enforcement/community relations, education and criminal justice reform. It will mark the NFL’s largest contribution to any social issue.
The deal’s language does include a call for players to end their on-field protests that include kneeling or not taking the field during the national anthem — an issue that has polarized fans and drawn strong, repeated and ongoing criticism from President Donald Trump. The league, however, certainly hopes the plan will quell those protests.
The money is slated to support local and national causes, with the latter receiving $5M this year and growing annually to a $12M commitment in 2021, 2022 and 2023. At the local level, owners would put up $250,000 annually and expect players to match that amount, totaling $500,000 for each team, ESPN reports. There also would be other fundraising opportunities, including telethons and auctions of jerseys worn in games.

Flag of Linares - Image by Blas Delgado & Eduardo Panizo, 23 October 2005
The municipality of Linares (60,740 inhabitants in 2013, therefore the 2nd most populous municipality in the province; 19,750 ha; municipal website) is located 50 km north-east of Jaén.
Ivan Sache, 9 August 2009
The flag of Linares is horizontally divided yellow-green-white-red-blue with the town's coat of arms on the white stripe.
There is no specific reference to the flag in the Municipal Archives. However, the local historian Federico Ramírez explains in Apuntes (Chapter XVI) that the flag is "yellow, green, white, red and blue with the coat of arms of Linares in the center", and that such a local flag was used in 1666 during a procession of the Virgin of Linarejos. The colours appear to be taken from the shields used by the defenders of the castle of Linares, shown in the St. Mary church and confirmed by the historian Argote de Molina: red and yellow for Gil Ramírez de Dávalos, white and blue for Olid and Poblaciones. The green colour was probably added to the flag to recall that Linares was once ruled by the Arabs, from which the town was re-conquerred in the 18th century.
The flag of Linares has been kept for a few years by the Brotherhood of the Patron Saint of Linares, which uses it in processions. More recently, the municipal administration started to use it in local events, with horizontal stripes.

“Joy is found when you focus your energy on improving human dignity, human capacity and human values” – Amit Ray
As we continue our focus on Human and Sex Trafficking this month, we shine the spotlight on Free the Girls, an international 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose mission is to provide support to sex trafficking survivors with a path to true freedom. It’s a journey from horrific trauma to reintegrating into the life they were meant to live within their family and community. Their goal for true freedom is measured by economic freedom, restored health, social well-being, education, and opportunity for a different, hopeful future. They wanted to answer the question, “What are these women being rescued to?” Please read more about Free the Girls by clicking on the link below. It is an extraordinary organization that envisions a world in which previously enslaved women are leading vibrant, successful, integrated lives.

Before we left for Columbus, I thought I understood what an honor it would be to speak to the 80 or so Wilcox staff members gathered at their first annual conference. But I didn’t really comprehend what a gift I had been given until later.
It began sinking in after my presentation, when Ember came up to make an announcement and stopped to hug me on her way to the podium. When I saw Carol, Kathy, and Ollie’s faces. When people I know, as well as complete strangers, came up to thank me for my remarks. And especially when Jamie thanked me, and I said no thank you, and he said no thank you, etc.
When I got home, friends and neighbors asked me what I said, if there is video, if I have a script. No, there is no video, no script. I have my PowerPoint slides and almost all of my note cards, but that’s it.
Even if I tried to recreate my speech, I couldn’t, not really. I wouldn’t be able to duplicate the emotions that overtook me when I looked out at the audience. Those feelings, as well as my sleep-deprivation, colored everything that I remember saying.
Little of what I said was new. All but one of the stories I used are in this blog. But if you’re interested, here are a summary and some of the slides.
I thanked all of the employees for what they do to help buyers. They are the ones who make our homeowner experiences possible. Even those who have little or no contact with buyers still play a role in making our homes and communities a reality.
I related my personal story of choosing and buying my Abbey. It’s the same one that begins this blog.
I talked about my positive experiences dealing with the Wilcox staff, including Jon and Gary, who are no longer with the company. I explained my belief that Carol, Kathy, Bob, and Steve are as much a part of our community as the neighbors who live here.
I wish I had remembered to say that I believe the Wilcox staff are people of character who seem to share the same values as the Wilcox family. I had intended to say that they are very good at relating to the older people who make up most of their customers.
I spent more time describing our community than any other topic. I used this slide, which was well received. Not only do we look like the close community that we are, it also showed them what our Flower Power event is like.
In the slide below, I used an Epcon term, builder partner, to make my point. Wilcox is considered a builder partner of Epcon, and we homeowners are the builder partner to Wilcox. They build the homes, clubhouse, and pool. Then it’s up to us to use them to build the community.
I explained that one way we build a community is by working together, on projects such as garage sales and Christmas decorating.
I talked about shared experiences drawing us closer together, using the example of losing Bob and Pat, dedicating the trees in their honor, and then saving the trees from the drought of the next summer.
I told them how much fun our social activities are. These are some of the slides I used:
Then I got more serious with this slide showing our mixed feelings about growth.
I tried to gently explain that we sometimes get growing pains when growth comes very quickly. I had done my homework on this one and could give them statistics: when I moved in 3 1/2 years ago, there were 20 to 25 residents. Now, counting renters, there are close to 100.
Finally, I referred to the Epcon slogan Where life comes together to illustrate how my life actually has come together since I moved here. How I have Glenn and Shirley to connect me to my home town. How I have neighbors who are former students, colleagues, parents of students, and a grandparent of students. How my being on the board of my former community prepared me for my role here. How my retirement writing jobs grew into this blog and our newsletter.
Reviewing all of this has reminded me how much I have to be grateful for. And that includes the opportunity to present at the conference this week.

My end goal would be to loose 60+ pounds. That is going to take forever if it ever happens at all.

I think that the goals that work the best are to attain a specific fitness milestone and not a particular weight range. Pick a fitness goal that appeals to you (eg bench press your weight, do 30 pushups etc) and go for it. The rest (and body transformation) will follow. The goal has to be specific enough to reach (and approachable). Then plan on how to approach it. "Looking like the TV guy" is too vague to crate an appropriate plan...

*if I lose 5 lbs - go buy a car? I have never understood goal setting.
5lbs. = New silk shirt. 15lbs. = New Cross trainers or sport coat? 60lbs. = Tailored Suit?
You have to buy new clothes anyway as you lose... they make good goal items for me.
Whatever works for you. Take the picture you found and put it up where you will walk past it every day. Use it to keep focused. You can probably find whatever you need to know on the internet. Whatever body you want to shape there is probably a workout for. If you hit a plateau, it's because your body is used to what you are doing; so change it up. My goals are long term also, tempered with the daily goal of getting to the gym. The $64 question here is... Is the picture your fiancée picked out for you attainable? If so, you are a lucky man.

This may sound silly, but mentally to myself I see myself as this little guy. When I graduated from High School, I was 128 or so. When I got out of the Air Force I weighed 143 and stayed there through college. Somewhere along the line (marriage, 2 kids, divorce, etc....) I hit 215. I lost that by working out. But I still see myself as this little 128 pounder....which I am not.
That image we have inside can hold us back or move us in ways we really do not want to acknowledge. It takes some work to change it.

I can't even see that really happening so how do you really set that goal or any goal? if I loose 5 lbs - go buy a car? I have never understood goal setting.

5 lbs at a time. Before you know it you'll melt off the 60 lbs.

This is one of if not the biggest issue for me. I am now 240 lbs at 5'8. Most of my weight is in my stomach area. When I try and vision what I can look like in the future I get very upset since I do not see that happening. I have always been overweight going back to when I was a kid. I have lost a little weight here and there but no where close to where I need to be.
I try to image me with a slimmer stomach and feeling good about exercising/running around with my kids but when I try in reality I can not. So there goes that vision out the window.
Goal setting is my second biggest issue. I have NO clue on understanding that. I can see a goal of losing 60 lbs but not getting satisfaction of losing 5 lbs or accomplishing a 5 minute walk.
Maybe I should modify what I was saying. I haven't had "no" results, but I found that I reached a plateau. However, I've already passed from just a little over a week of counting calories and tracking my diet and exercise with SparkPeople, which is great!
In terms of body types... I know there's nothing to do to change the physical proportions of my body. What I was looking for was a goal based on an image of the best my body could look based on the genetics I had. I'm the type of guy who responds to lofty goals (to be achieved over the course of, maybe, years) with a few smaller "stepping stone" goals along the way.
My fiancee was very sweet. We actually both found and selected images of what out ideal bodies would be based on our baseline physical build over the weekend. It's been surprisingly motivating. I've started thinking about things differently by saying to myself "Hey, that's what my body actually looks like. I'm just recovering from years of not taking care of myself."
If I never get there, I won't feel bad, but the process of trying is going to make me a healthier and happier person.
People come in all shapes and sizes. You want to make the most of what you have. I am puzzled that you say, "I've been working out for years with little results." What results are you looking for?
I have naturally broad shoulders and narrow hips. Of course, when I was 275 pounds, my belly and spare tire hid my tapered shape!
I played college football. I also ran the 800M on the track team. I was lightning fast and had bone-crushing strength. I worked hard to be a competitive athlete. However, without favorable genetics all my hard work would have been for naught. My dad and grandfather were great college football players. My mom was an outstanding competitive swimmer. Three of my children played college football. My other 2 children were elite college runners. (BTW - Athletes are not better, or cooler than anybody else! Everybody has special talents.)
Is there a downside? Yup! I have a relatively long torso and short legs. I have all fast twitch muscles. I have been trying to train for amateur 5k and 10k races. My genetic makeup fights me in endurance activities. I run too fast and burn out. I have been struggling to build endurance.
You have an average physique? Lucky you! There are things you can do to make you appear to have broader shoulders. Working your deltoid muscles can help. I agree that a personal trainer could help you achieve your goals. But you need to be realistic. No matter how I try, I will never have longer legs or a shorter torso!

No, I don't have any experience like this. When I was WAY overwieght and decided I was willing to do what it takes to lose, I figured out what needed to be done, picked 200 because it was a nice round number, then got work losing weight. When I got to 200, I decided I needed to add some muscle, figured out how to do it, and that's what I'm working on now. Currently I'm thinking about going to a calorie deficit again and losing some more weight, but I'm not quite ready yet.
My point is, you'll probably have much more success if you set a series of shorter term attainable goals, than if you focus on trying to figure out if you can look like Brad Pitt or a young Arnold Govinator or whoever.
Try goals like: -Lose X pounds -Attain X% body fat -Increase chest size by X inches -Increase curl weight by X pounds
I'm not trying to be a jerk, it just sounds like you're setting yourself up for failure. Especially since you said: "So, although I've been working out for years with little results...."
Do you know why you've had so little results?? Are you trying to lose weight or gain muscle?? Maybe we can help. There are lots of guys here with experience and knowledge.
If you get on the right path the end result will take care of itself.

Have you had an appt. with a professional fitness trainer? They really know how to take all of those measurements and give you recommendations on what you need to do to accomplish your goals. It might be a little pricey for an appt. but I think well worth the effort to improve your body and health.
"Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will." - Zig Ziglar
I've always had an average physique. I never was very athletic, but was never particularly overweight either. As I've found myself approaching my 30's I started realizing that it was never going to get any easier for me to have the body I wanted. So, although I've been working out for years with little results, I've decided to really amp up my game to finally be able to look at myself in a mirror and say, "dude, I look hot".
That said, I want to be realistic, so I've tried to get an image of what my ideal body would look like to set a goal (my fiancee has been my ally in this) by pointing out guys on TV or shirtless guys jogging around my neighborhood and saying "Think I could look like that guy?"
My fiancee, who's a bit of a fitness nut herself, is always one to bring me back to reality by saying "maybe, but he has naturally broader shoulders" or something like that. So, I'm trying to develop a goal in my mind that is realistic to my genetic makeup, but still something I'd be happy with. Anyone else ever experience this?

The Biden administration’s new rule forces airlines to disclose all their hidden fees upfront
It’ll be so much easier to find a fair, honest deal.
Have you ever seen a fantastic deal on an airplane ticket but as you are checking out you realize there are fees for just about everything? Your $99 airfare balloons up to $250 after you add baggage fees, carry-on charges, seat selection and insurance. Some airlines even charge an additional fee for unaccompanied minors.
Pretty soon, what seemed like a good deal on a cheap carrier costs more than if you bought a ticket on a full-service airline.
The Biden administration is announcing new rules that will make airline ticket fees more transparent to consumers. Under the proposed new rule, the first time your fee is displayed, travel websites will have to disclose any fees for baggage, cancellations or to sit with your child.
\u201cWhite House National Economic Council Director Brian Deese: "Healthy competition is a hallmark of healthy capitalism because when there's more competition, consumers end with lower prices and more options and workers get higher wages."\u201d— The Hill (@The Hill) 1643242560
“Airline passengers deserve to know the full, true cost of their flights before they buy a ticket,” U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said in a statement. “This new proposed rule would require airlines to be transparent with customers about the fees they charge, which will help travelers make informed decisions and save money.”
After the changes take effect, it’ll be much easier for travelers to find the best deal without being suckered into paying more in hidden fees.
The new proposal is an initiative from the White House Competition Council, which the Biden administration established to find cost-saving measures to help consumers as well as boost competition across the economy.
The administration says that in over 75% of industries a smaller number of large companies now control more of the business than they did 20 years ago. The administration believes that this lack of competition drives up prices for consumers and drives down wages for workers.
"Healthy competition is a hallmark of healthy capitalism because when there's more competition, consumers end with lower prices and more options and workers get higher wages," White House National Economic Council Director Brian Deese said according to The Hill.
Some economists also argue that when only a small number of companies are in an industry it also works to kill innovation.
\u201cNo one likes surprise fees. That's why today we're proposing a new rule to ensure that airlines and travel companies provide you with more info up front, before you purchase your ticket. https://t.co/JXeDugscpZ\u201d— TransportationGov (@TransportationGov) 1664200249
The new rule should make it easier for people to figure out the best deal for airfare. But it also encourages healthy, transparent business practices in which consumers aren’t getting duped into paying extra for a flight. Airlines whose business models are based around tricky, misleading tactics to get people to overpay for a flight, are essentially profiting off being dishonest.
We’d all rather live in a world where we choose who we fly with based on price, customer service and comfort rather than falling for a bait and switch. In this new business model, airlines that provide excellent service and value will do a lot better than those whose business models are all about deception. This will reward the airlines that treat customers best instead of putting them in a position to lose out to those that don't play fair.

Staff tested: Hair products
We tested the latest styling serums, volumizers and shine pastes. Here’s what we thought of each product
L’Oréal Paris Hair Expertise Volume Collagen Body Boost Root Lifting Spray
This targeted spray uses collagen to strengthen and plump fine roots weightlessly.
My fine, short hair tends to flatten after blow-drying, so it needs all the volume help it can get. After washing, I sprayed this mist at the roots, combed it through, then blow-dried as usual while brushing hair upward for extra lift. My hair not only had more volume, it still had it by the time I got to work. I like that this can also be used to refresh hair once it’s dry.
-Margaret Nearing, Senior Editor
Dove Hair Therapy Nourishing Oil Care Anti-Frizz Serum
This blend of argan and almond oils is made to absorb rapidly into dry, frizzy hair, leaving it smooth and shiny.
My long hair tends to get frizzy, so I’m a big fan of hair serums. I’ve tried many, but they can be expensive and I find they don’t smell that great. I loved the sweet scent of this hair serum. I used two pumps on damp hair and after letting it air-dry, my hair felt soft and was frizz-free. It feels totally weightless and it makes my hair look super-shiny.
-Stephanie Han, Art Director
Joico Structure Define Lightweight Shine Wax
Applied sparingly to short-to-medium-length hair, this delivers flexible hold, separation and shine for a textured look.
I have thick, coarse hair, the ends of which curl in every ?direction except the one I want. This styling paste promises “light hold with maximum shine.” It delivers on the hold part, as it did tame the unruliness. As for the shine? Not so much-maybe because I used the very least amount possible (I’m paranoid about having helmet head, thanks to a certain national political figure).
-Ruth Hanley, Copy Chief
Joico Structure Define Lightweight Shine Wax ($20, 100 mL)
Schwarzkopf Professional BlondMe Volume Miracle Cream
This styling cream promises an “amplifying effect” and added strength for fragile blonde hair.
Good timing: I had just had my long blonde hair highlighted prior to trying this styling cream. I combed it through towel-dried hair and then blow-dried with a round brush. My hair was left soft and easy to style, yet still had lots of body. And since it’s specifically for blonde hair, I felt that my fresh highlights were getting some protection.
-Melissa Greer, Associate Web Editor
Schwarzkopf Professional BlondMe Volume Miracle Cream ($20, 150 mL)
Kevin Murphy Hair Resort Beach Texturiser
This strong-hold, oil-free lotion with honey and citrus extracts enhances curls and volume.
Wow, a “sexy surfer look” (the label’s promise) was extremely appealing in the middle of winter when I tested this. I blow-dried my hair (which is pretty long right now), rubbed a dollop of the shimmering, coconut-scented lotion on my palms and crunched my hair all over. Voila: big, messy hair with a touch of texture-not suitable for when I have to look polished, but for other times, I’m all over this.
-Bonnie Munday, Editor-in-Chief
Kevin Murphy Hair Resort Beach Texturiser ($22, 150 mL)
Marc Anthony True Professional Strictly Curls Curl Envy
Shea butter, avocado oil and provitamin B5 aim to defrizz coarse hair to define curls.
I don’t blow-dry my thick wavy-to-curly hair at home (hello, professional blow-outs). Instead, I air-dry to “embrace” the wave-but need a styling product to keep it smooth. I simply combed this through towel-dried hair and let it do its magic: It put the kibosh on the frizz. (And it’s good value for the money.) I’ll need to play with quantity, though, as it weighed my hair down a bit.
-Rhonda Rovan, Beauty Editor
Marc Anthony True Professional Strictly Curls Curl Envy ($10, 177 mL)
John Frieda Frizz-Ease 3-Day Straight Semi-Permanent Styling Spray
Heat-activated polymers keep flat-ironed strands smooth and straight for three days after styling.
I prefer my wavy hair straight, so I spend a lot of time drying and styling it. I’ve had it straightened at a salon and loved the results-but not the four hours it took! I combed this through wet hair, and blow-dried while brushing. Finally, I flat-ironed (as per instructions). It was straighter than usual afterwards-and, yes, it stayed sleek for three days. Works for me.
-Jennifer Walker, Senior Content Editor
Giovanni Natural Mousse Air-Turbo Charged Styling Foam
This medium-hold foam has certified organic aloe leaf juice and sunflower seed oil.
With its eco-friendly self-foaming pump, this styler has a light and airy foam texture (different from a traditional mousse) that absorbed quickly with little combing through. To boost the body in my long, straight hair, I worked a few palm-fuls into the roots after towel-drying, and blow-dried with a round brush. The volume lasted all day-but so did a tacky feel. ?I’ll use less next time.
-Jennifer Masseau, Associate Editor
Giovanni Natural Mousse Air-Turbo Charged Styling Foam ($11, 207 mL)

It’s not too difficult to determine if a guy likes you when you’re able to spot the signs he wants to kiss you. The difference between men and women isn’t all that great, so you should be able to recognize the moves that mean he wants a little loving. Of course, when you have a crush on someone, everything they do can feel like a mystery that’s impossible to be solved. If he’s confusing you with his actions, here are some signs he wants to kiss you:
1. Pay Attention to Proximity
When you’re alone together, how close to you does he choose to sit? If he’s far away, then it’s pretty impossible to kiss. But if he sits in close proximity, and even has his limbs touching yours, then it could be one of the signs he wants to kiss you. The closer, the better!
2. Everything’s in the Eyes
If he keeps glancing down at your lips, it’s because he wants to touch them. Of course, he could also want to kiss you if he’s staring into your eyes. They might be so gorgeous that he’s unable to look away. The face can give a lot away, so pay attention to his facial expressions.
3. Look at His Lips
If his eyes aren’t giving anything away, his lips might be instead. If he keeps licking his lips or touching them with his hands, it’s a good sign. We subconsciously touch the places where we want to be touched, so he could be ready to plant one on you
4. Figure out if He’s Flirting
If he’s flirting with you, then there’s definitely some chemistry between you. Don’t get so distracted by his beauty that you forget to listen to his words. What he’s saying can mean a lot. Pay attention to how playful he’s being. If he’s way more flirty than usual, it could mean that he’s hoping for a kiss.
5. Take the Touches to Heart
If he touches your arm when he’s talking, or rests his hand on your thigh, he likes having his hands on you. Giving you little touches is a stepping stone toward giving you a kiss. He’s starting small in order to see your reaction. If you’re happy with him, then he’ll take it as a sign that you’re ready for him to make a move.
6. Consider His Compliments
People like to kiss things they find pretty. If he keeps complimenting you, then he obviously likes what he sees. If your personalities work well together, and he thinks you’re gorgeous, he’s going to be tempted to kiss you.
7. Importance of PausesThere’s a difference between awkward pauses and pauses filled with sexual tension. When there’s a pause in conversation, what happens? Do you feel like you want to run away, or do you want to get even closer? Make sure you pay attention to what the two of you do during those pauses. If you’re staring at each other smiling, then there’s a good chance of a kiss coming.
If a guy shows only one of these signs, it might not mean much, but if a few of them are true, then the chances are high that he wants his lips pressed against yours. What’s the best first kiss you’ve ever had?

I am flawed beyond comprehension. A lucky flesh covered skeleton, passing my short time on a beautiful planet I can only barely appreciate. Prone to addiction, petty jealousy, gluttony, insecurity, cruelty, and self-loathing. But still I love. I love the creatures to whom this earth belongs - from the pod of dolphins wheeling magnificently before a Pacific sunset, to the mealybug making its way across my concrete balcony garden. And despite all of the well though-out and seamlessly logical reasons I have for disliking my fellow man, there’s nothing I love more than the human race. The only thing I crave as much as being alone is being with others.
And because I am only human, I hate. And my true and lasting hate is mostly reserved for those who hate. Not the ones who have been dealt a bad hand in life and act out their rage on an indifferent world, but those who are dedicated to the destruction of that which they do not understand - or simply do not like - and use religion or ideology to cover their tracks. The person who picks up a gun and does the deed himself is the easiest to hate, and is indeed loathsome. But make no mistake, that person was not born that way - that person was made. Made by those who have the power and position to spread a poisonous message daily and methodically - all the while picking up a fat check, maintaining a facade of respectability…and using religion or ideology to cover their tracks. And when some unstable little fuck who has guzzled their Kool-Aid to the last drop does the dirty work for them, the idealogues feign shock and blame The Other, and the religious nuts offer aggressively misinterpreted quotes from their chosen book of faith to justify the act. And blame the other.
I am flawed beyond comprehension. And I am not qualified to judge. But it seems to me that the ones who pull the trigger are the symptom. The ones who convince them to do so are the disease.

In search of home comforts
What is the mystery behind Carlisle's disappointing home form of late? Well Paul Thirlwell doesn't know!
The Cumbrians' captain, as he told the official website, feels it could be the fear of failure as the concession of goals is causing confidence issues: 'When we concede at home at the moment we do lose a bit of confidence.
'We're struggling to get wins here and we talked about the next goal being massive when we went in for half-time. We got that, but they killed it off with their late sucker punch.
'I don't know if the home form is preying on people's minds, but what is certain is that something isn't happening here.'
One thing Thirlwell does know is that "as a group of players" the players need to find the answers...
If they can't they have to "accept criticism" it brings as the "preparations" being made ahead of games are right!

In the most precious moments of travel, when I have that simulaneous sense of awe and a somehow comforting feeling that I understand just how amazing the world is, the last thing I usually think to do is pause and attempt to put it into words. I’m always envious of travel writers who capture a moment so well that those of us reading can not just see, smell, and taste it, but we understand the feeling of being there. It’s the feeling that’s the most difficult to capture.
Now that my feet are back on solid ground, and I’m no longer looking out over a frost-bitten Tokyo from the 35th floor with a glass of champagne, I wish the feeling I recall from that moment was a bit more…present. Instead, here I sit at my kitchen counter, staring down a pile of dirty dishes overwhelming the sink.
The glamour is gone.
Fortunately, I feel certain that Tokyo was one of those places that I will remember well in the vivid bits and pieces that have come back to me in quiet moments this week. I’ll remember the sheer number of people in Shibuya at night and the contrast of eating piping hot crisp-creamy octopus balls in the cold, dry air.
I’ll remember the serenity of the tree-lined walk to Meiji Shrine and the prayer cards in hundreds of languages hanging in its courtyard.
For absolute certain, I’ll remember the comic chaos of the train stations and the subway maps that look like oversized crossword puzzles gone awry.
And the frozen mochi donuts (mochi on the outside – fruit , chocolate, and cream on the inside) that we had to let thaw while we drank lattes nearby so that we could eat them on the spot.
I’ll definitely think of the tiny door in the basement of a walk-up in Shinjuku where we ate the most magnificently crisp gyoza in a cozy ten-table nook. Our (very close) neighbors stole polite glances at our delight over the food.
Come to think of it, what I’ll remember most about the trip were the tiny restaurants. The hidden places that we bravely entered to confused looks and linguistic hurdles, but were rewarded with dishes that contained mysterious subtleties and flavors I could never even begin to name. The food was remarkable. Rich soups, crisp vegetables, and rice that on its own was deep and satisfying enough to suffice as a meal. We had panko-breaded fried chicken the likes of which I have never experienced, udon noodles that wrapped themselves in the flavor of steaming broth and bounced on the tongue. The food was fantastic.
On our last day, grabbing breakfast on the top floor of our hotel at 6:30 so that we could make an early train to the airport, we looked out over the city and saw Mt. Fuji crystal clear in blue twilight sky. The camera was packed, we were bundled in our coats and holding hot coffee for the road, but we couldn’t resist a moment to take it all in.
I can’t describe the feeling of that moment. But maybe that one wasn’t meant for words.

There are so many days in my life that go nothing like the way I have planned them. This often causes me to work longer or work harder to try to catch up. Sometimes this means that I don’t get enough rest or I skip the gym or I don’t do something else that is important for my well-being. This approach usually backfires – I end up more stressed and less able to accomplish what I aspire to. It seems much better to keep self-maintenance activities as a priority and be the best I can be for whatever life brings me.
Causes of Depression
It was surprising to see how people responded to our question about the biggest cause of their depression. In my experience it seems popular for individuals to say that their depression is caused by a "chemical imbalance" in their brains. The largest number of our respondents in our poll said that trauma, death of a loved one or stress brought it on.
Trauma is indeed a cause of depression. The most severe version of can be Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Stress or anxiety can lead to depression because of the dysfunctional or distorted thinking that often accompanies both.

This tutorial has been written for CorelDRAW® X7. While similar features might be available in previous releases, this tutorial is fully applicable to CorelDRAW X7 only.
Drawing objects in CorelDRAW is accomplished by using a variety of tools found in the toolbox. In this tutorial, we will look at the Curve Tools flyout. The curve tools include the 2-Point Line tool, the Freehand tool, the Bézier tool, the Pen tool, the B-Spline tool, the Polyline tool, the 3-Point Curve tool, and the Smart Drawing tool. Once properly mastered, these tools will make design creation simple and accurate.
What you will learn
In this tutorial, you will learn about
Types of nodes
Before looking at the various curve tools available in CorelDRAW, we must look at the types of nodes that can be created, and how they are controlled. The figure below shows what a node looks like when selected with the Shape tool. The Shape tool is the standard tool for moving and manipulating nodes. The node pictured here is a cusp node.
Cusp nodes let you create sharp transitions, such as corners or sharp angles, in a curve object. You can move the control handles in a cusp node independently of each other, changing the line only on one side of the node.
With smooth nodes, the lines passing through the node take on the shape of a curve, producing smooth transitions between line segments. The control handles of a smooth node are always directly opposite each other, but they may be at different distances from the node.
Symmetrical nodes are similar to smooth nodes. They create a smooth transition between line segments, but they also let you give the lines on both sides of a node the same curved appearance. The control handles of symmetrical nodes are directly opposite each other and at equal distance from the node.
Line nodes let you shape curve objects by changing the shape of their segments. You can make a curved segment straight or a straight segment curved. Making a straight segment curved does not noticeably change the segment’s appearance, but it displays control handles that you can move to change the segment’s shape.
Now that we understand the various types of nodes in CorelDRAW, we can look at the tools used to draw lines and curves.
The Curve Tools flyout lets you create both curved and straight line segments.
Freehand and Polyline tools
The Freehand tool lets you control the smoothness of the curved line you are drawing as well as add segments to an existing line. However, the Polyline tool is easier to use for quickly drawing a complex line that consists of alternating curved and straight segments and allows you to draw in preview mode.
2-Point Line tool
You can draw straight lines by using the 2-Point Line tool. This tool also allows you to create straight lines that are perpendicular or tangent to objects.
Bézier and Pen tools
The Bézier and Pen tools let you draw lines one segment at a time by placing each node with precision and controlling the shape of each curved segment. The Pen tool gives you the added ability to preview the line segments as you are drawing.
The B-Spline tool lets you draw curved lines by setting control points that shape the curve without breaking it into segments.
3-Point Curve tool
The 3-Point Curve tool lets you draw simple curved lines by specifying their width and height. You can use this tool to create arc shapes quickly without manipulating nodes.
Smart Drawing tool
You can use the Smart Drawing tool to draw freehand strokes that can be recognized and converted to basic shapes. If an object is not converted to a shape, it is smoothed. You can set the level at which CorelDRAW recognizes shapes and converts them to objects.
Recreating a bitmap as curves
We’ll use the Freehand tool to recreate a logo from a low-resolution (72 dpi) bitmap. Recreating the uneven edges of the bitmap as vector curves will make the shapes smooth and easy to control, reshape, or resize.
With the Freehand tool, we click the top of the letter "C" of the logo (as indicated by the letter "A" in the illustration below). Next, we follow the straight edges of the letter, double-clicking at the end of each segment. A single click ends the curve.
When the object has been created, we select the four nodes on the left-hand vertical lines with the Shape tool and click the Convert to curve button on the property bar.
This allows us to use the Shape tool to drag the control handles out to match the curvature of the letter.
Once we are satisfied with the shaping of the path around the letter, we give it a solid contrasting color, which makes it easier to see our progress. We can then move on to the next character.
When creating a character or object that is made up of multiple paths or areas, such as the letters A, a, B, b, D, d, O, o, P, p, Q, q or R, remember that the objects need to be combined once they have been created. This can be done by selecting the objects and clicking Object > Combine.
Using this process makes it easy to recreate almost any image you wish. Some may take a bit more time than others, but in the end you will have a piece of artwork that will remind you just how easy it is to draw curves in CorelDRAW Graphics Suite.

The authors propose the implementation of a mathematical model in the form of an information module. The mathematical model is a problem of nonlinear programming, the solution of which allows to optimally distribute the labor resources on the basis of statistical data and economic indicators. The process of solving the optimization problem is automated with the help of the developed web service of interactive analysis and forecasting of the distribution of labor resources of the enterprise, industry, region and the country as a whole. The information module is a web service that allows you to analyze the distribution of labor resources online and offline. The example of the analysis of labor resources of Stavropol region is given.

Letters to the Editor
Pulmonary Mucormycosis in a Patient with COPD
Am Fam Physician. 1999 May 1;59(9):2428-2430.
to the editor: Patients who have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are commonly treated with corticosteroids. This treatment may predispose such patients to opportunistic infections, including invasive fungal infections, that may initially manifest as hemoptysis. I would like to present the case of a patient with emphysema who had recently begun treatment with corticosteroids and who died as a result of hemoptysis due to invasive mucormycosis.
The patient was a 66-year-old man with alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency and severe emphysema. He smoked two packs of cigarettes per day for 35 years. The only medications he used were inhaled beta-agonists and ipratropium bromide. He had never been treated with corticosteroids. Four months earlier, he was treated with oral antibiotics and several courses of prednisone for increasing dyspnea and a productive cough. He did not use corticosteroids as maintenance between treatment courses.
Secondary to persistent symptoms, the patient was hospitalized. Physical examination revealed that he was in moderate respiratory distress with a temperature of 99°F, a heart rate of 98 beats per minute, a blood pressure 110/95 mm Hg and a respiratory rate of 24 breaths per minute. The cardiac examination was normal, lung sounds were diminished with expiratory wheezing, and there was no accessory muscle use or pulmonary consolidation. Chest radiograph revealed diffuse parenchymal abnormalities, and the patient was started on a course of intravenous antibiotics, methylprednisone and nebulized beta-agonist.
On day 10, massive hemoptysis developed and the patient was transferred to our institution. Repeat chest radiographs revealed a new opacity in the left lung, and bronchoscopy showed blood throughout the tracheobronchial tree. Pulmonary angiography demonstrated vascular ectasia and prominent bronchial vessels that corresponded with the opacity in the upper lobe of the left lung. Sputum and bronchoscopy cultures from the transferring hospital revealed the presence of Mucor species, and the patient was started on treatment with amphotericin B. Because of poor underlying lung function, the patient was not a suitable candidate for surgery.
Despite continued use of antibiotics, the patient died nine days after being transferred. Microscopic examination of the lungs at autopsy revealed tissue invasion with fungal hyphae, broad and ribbon-like with irregular wall thickness and non-septate hyphae, characteristic of Mucor species.
Invasive fungal infections are rare, but often fatal complications in patients with COPD. Such patients are often treated with corticosteroids, which predisposes them to the development of opportunistic infections through the depression of cell-mediated immunity and the impairment of macrophage killing.1 Some authors suggest that the risk of infection is minimal if patients who are treated with prednisone receive less than the equivalent of 10 mg per day, or a cumulative dose not exceeding 700 mg.2,3
Mucormycosis is not commonly reported in patients with COPD who are treated with corticosteroids. Common pulmonary pathogens in patients with COPD include Aspergillus, Pneumocystis carinii and Legionella pneumophila.2 Sixty-six percent of cases of pulmonary mucormycosis occur in patients with hematologic malignancies, and another 25 percent of cases occur in patients with diabetes.4,5 Antifungal treatment with amphotericin B is typically not effective. Occasionally, surgical resection has been successful; however, many patients with COPD are not candidates for lung resection, given their poor underlying lung function.5
This case illustrates that even low doses of corticosteroids, given for limited periods of time, may predispose patients with COPD to invasive fungal infections. This diagnosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with unexplained hemoptysis, in order to identify patients who are potential candidates for surgery.

I recently got a paint horse gelding(Sailor). The owner told us that his sire was registered but not his dam. I couldn't remeber what she said his sire's name was but I do remeber that it had 'Jay Bar'. I also remeber that she told me that Sailor was in the 'Bar' family and had those bloodlines.
Does anyone know what the Bar family is? I don't think I've heard of them.

IT and Divestitures: What CIOs Should Know, Part 2
Addressing the IT separation challenges companies often face during divestitures.
The four common divestiture models—sale, spin-off, joint venture and asset trade—can challenge CIOs in very different ways. While they all involve changing the ownership and operating structures of a business asset, each model has its own performance metrics, timelines, regulatory and legal considerations, and value drivers.
To support the strategic and financial goals of a divestiture deal and to keep separation costs from spiraling out of control, CIOs should understand the complexities, benefits, and challenges of each model, says Asish Ramchandran, a principal at Deloitte Consulting LLP who serves as the information technology lead for the National Mergers, Acquisitions, Divestitures and Restructuring practice. “Understanding how these models might affect IT can help CIOs develop more effective IT separation or integration strategies,” he says.
In the first article in this series, we discuss how CIOs at divesting companies can approach sales and spin-offs. In this article, we examine joint ventures and asset trades, and the IT challenges each presents.
Divestiture Model 3: The Joint Venture
By contributing partial ownership of a business asset into a joint venture (JV) with a partner, divesting companies can share risk and split costs, while remaining actively involved in operating the asset.
For CIOs, this divestiture model can prove particularly challenging because when a JV deal closes, the two parties to the transaction must find a way to collaborate on strategy, operations, IT issues, governance, and decision-making. CIOs may be able to avoid problems down the road by structuring IT asset ownership agreements and operating strategies in a way that protects the seller legally and financially, while providing enough flexibility to minimize this tension and accommodate future changes to the JV. “For the JV to evolve without conflict, there should be governance structures in place that make it easy for two parties to come together and then, if necessary, separate,” says Varun Joshi, a principal at Deloitte Consulting LLP.
Ramchandran adds that there are additional steps CIOs can take to manage such complexities and prevent them from undermining IT processes and strategies. “CIOs should identify and understand the success metrics of the joint venture, and the business and operating processes that the partners will share in the JV,” he says. “If you identify redundant processes and capabilities, or unnecessary complexities that have implications for IT, then you can work with each party to address them, or build your IT strategy to accommodate them.”
Finally, CIOs may choose to work with the deal teams from both companies, before the deal closes, to organize the JV’s IT operating environment, and determine the staff, systems, and processes it will require. Moreover, CIOs should consider creating governance structures and an exit strategy in case the JV ends abruptly. “They need to have a clear delineation in the deal agreement of who will pay for what IT costs should the JV dissolve. Without such a plan in place, CIOs can get stuck with JV-related IT costs for both parties,” says Ramchandran.
Divestiture Model 4: The Asset Trade
Companies with complementary capabilities or resources occasionally trade assets which, as with JVs, can provide a means for managing risks and costs. For CIOs on both sides of the deal, the primary challenge this infrequently used divestiture model presents is ensuring that, from an IT perspective, the complexity inherent in trading two business assets does not result in the deal becoming two labor-intensive transactions: a divesture and an acquisition.
“In an asset trade—more than with the other divestiture options—CIOs need to do extensive due diligence and blueprinting before the deal ever closes,” says Ramchandran. “Taking the time to understand the functional nuances and true costs of this model, and creating plans that leverage existing and complementary IT systems, assets, and processes in each asset can help CIOs keep IT costs down and avoid the two-transaction nightmare.”
Joshi notes that in asset trades, time can be a constraining factor that can drive up expenses, particularly if back office infrastructure is accompanying an asset. Integrating another company’s back office systems and processes into your own often takes much more time than CIOs have during the transition period. “You might be inheriting a real dog of a back office system and IT professionals who are unfamiliar with your culture,” he says. “All of this can slow down an integration effort and, in turn, drive up costs.”
While each of the divestiture models described in this series may be deployed broadly to structure a carve-out, no two divestitures are exactly alike. Each has its own drivers, goals, and costs. Likewise, each presents CIOs with a unique set of challenges and considerations. By understanding the nature of the deal being negotiated, its timelines, and the demands it may place on IT, CIOs can structure their divestiture-related work in ways that minimize transition times and support their company’s strategic objectives.

The BEH group has written several methodological reviews and commentaries and is currently working on a Robert Wood Johnson Active Living Research Program funded meta-analysis of studies of neighborhood walkability and obesity and physical activity. These articles seek to synthesize findings from across the scientific literature and to set priorities and agendas for future research to understand how neighborhood conditions affect health.
Our paper “Built environments and obesity in disadvantaged populations.” reviewed the literature on how obesity-related health disparities by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status might relate to obesogenic built environments.
Our paper “Disparities in neighborhood food environments: implications of measurement strategies.” sought to model how neighborhood differences in vehicle ownership rates, public transit access, and impediments to pedestrian travel, such as crime and poor traffic safety, might exacerbate or reduce neighborhood disparities in access to supermarkets. An earlier version of this paper was presented at a conference sponsored by the National Poverty Center at the University of Michigan.
“Steps Forward: Review and Recommendations for Research on Walkability, Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Health” describes the gaps in the current literature on neighborhood walkability and proposes an agenda for the next steps in research on how walkability affects health.
For common outcomes like obesity, the use of odds ratios should be viewed critically and cautiously. Our paper “At Odds: Concerns Raised by Odds Ratios for Common Outcomes in Research on Physical Activity and Obesity”, describes the problems that occur in physical activity and obesity research when odds ratios are used to express effects or associations; information is lost when out come data are dichotomized and there is often a mismatch between the odds ratio scale and the scientific questions of interest. We describe how to calculate prevalence ratios as an alternative to odds ratios when working with common dichotomous outcomes.
Place-focused activity research can potentially improve health and social justice. However, individuals are perceptive, critical, and deliberative in their behavioral responses, that is they have “agency”. Our paper “Place-focused Physical Activity Research, Human Agency, and Social Justice in Public Health: Taking Agency Seriously in Studies of the Built Environment”, describes how attention to human agency can improve the science and ethics of ongoing research.
Our paper “There goes the neighborhood effect: bias owing to nondifferential measurement error in the construction of neighborhood contextual measures.”, describes how the validity of neighborhood health effects studies is threatened when there is measurement error in the underlying data used to construct a neighborhood contextual variable like neighborhood poverty rate. We show that when individual’s responses to Census questions include measurement error, even non-differential measurement error, analyses of measures constructed from these data, such as neighborhood poverty rate, are biased away from the null.
Our paper “Methods to measure the impact of home, social, and sexual neighborhoods of urban gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men.”, describes the methods we are using to characterize residential, social and sexual neighborhoods of men who have sex with men.
Our paper “Association of proximity and density of parks and objectively measured physical activity in the United States: A systematic review.” provides an overview of the literature investigating the impacts of neighborhood park access on physical activity. We found that the data in this area are quite inconsistent and paper recommends strategies for further research, employing standardized reporting and innovative study designs to better understand the relationship of parks and physical activity.
Protecting Personally Identifiable Information When Using Online Geographic Tools for Public Health Research describes our concerns that the use of online geographic and data tools in neighborhood health research can cause the loss of anonymity for study subjects.

Sacha Baron Cohen is getting dressed up in disguises again… but this time, it’s no joke.
The Borat comedian takes a dramatic turn in the new Netflix drama The Spy, and in the just-released trailer — which you can watch above — we see him as Israeli spy Eli Cohen, who agrees to a dangerous undercover mission where he infiltrates Syrian high society to learn about the government’s anti-Israeli operations. At first, Eli is eager, as a commanding officer sternly asks him, “If your country needed you to lie to your friends, your family, your wife… would you do it?”
We see Eli befriending a powerful sheik and laughing it up at lavish parties — while also snapping covert photos of classified Syrian documents. (“We all have secrets,” he tells a new associate.) But soon, he starts having trouble drawing the line between his undercover identity and his real one. “You are saving lives, Eli,” his handler (played by The Americans‘ Noah Emmerich) assures him… but is he losing his own?
The six-episode limited series, written and directed by Homeland veteran Gideon Raff, debuts Friday, Sept. 6 on Netflix. Are you ready to accept the assignment? Press PLAY above for a sneak peek at The Spy, and then drop your first impressions in a comment below.

[soundslides width=”690″ height =”533″ id=”373366″]
The brand-new, state-of-the-art Provo Recreation Center opened its doors in May of 2013, hoping to unite Provo’s residents and promote recreation for all.
One year later, the center has surpassed expectations and is enjoying enormous success.
“In 2010 and 2011, a feasibility study was conducted, and we hoped to get 4,500 memberships, and 60,000 day passes over the course of the first year,” said Provo Recreation Center Operations Supervisor Bryce Merrill. “We have sold over 28,000 memberships and over a quarter of a million day passes since opening.”
The Provo Recreation Center is truly one of a kind, featuring four regulation-sized basketball courts, an Olympic-size swimming pool, 10 different leisure pools and a 10,000-square-foot fitness mezzanine. It was designed with Provo residents in mind. Parents with children can come, drop their children off at the on-site daycare facility and enjoy one or all of the recreation activities offered in the 162,000-square-foot facility.
Joe Bryson, a former BYU student and Provo Recreation Center patron, said he has tried a lot of the facility’s activities and classes.
“I love going there,” Bryson said. “It’s got a ton of options for staying active.”
Provo resident Kaesi Warr also expressed her approval of the new facility and its features.
“Fitness classes are the best,” Warr said. “And the outdoor waterslides are fast and fun.”
In the past year, more than 1.3 million people have visited the center. That total ranges from members who visit daily to those who only come for certain events or classes.
“That number shows you Provo was excited to have something like this,” Merrill said. “It has been long overdo. It is a new way for us to reach all of Provo, and that’s really fun to us.”
Moving forward, those working behind the scenes are excited to have policies in place following year one, and they believe that will help the center offer even more in the future. One exciting development is the unveiling of the new mobile application. It will give visitors the opportunity to reserve a court or class before they even show up.
This app will be beneficial to the center because, according to Warr, one downside of the facility is the high quantity of patrons.
“Sometimes it can be a bit crowded,” Warr said. “That can make it hard to do what you want.”
Merrill said the center is focused on improving visitor experience.
“It’s exciting that we’ve had a successful year one so that year two is more focused on even better services and really pushing customer service and events,” Merrill said. “It’s good to get to year two.”
One thing is for sure, the center and its employees are not satisfied with the success they have had thus far. Visitors’ feedback has been welcomed and appreciated. Some small things have been altered based on feedback, and many shared opinions and thoughts have helped the center realize and plan for what needs to be done in the next 10–15 years.
“If you have not been here yet, come see it,” Merrill encouraged. “This is not a typical recreation center. Come view it and experience it. We are trying to make it easier for you to live a healthier lifestyle.”
A day-pass at the center is $4 for youth 3–17 years old, $5 for adults ages 18–59 and $4 for seniors age 60+. An adult annual membership for Provo residents is $285 and $355 for non-Provo residents. An annual family membership, that includes six people, is $493 for Provo residents and $618 for non-Provo residents.

What a nightmare this road trip has become. The Yankees are losing games and players. Thursday’s 8-7 tenth inning loss to the Athletics was, rather easily, the worst loss of the season. At least us East Coasters didn’t have to stay up until 2:30am to watch it or anything. Anyway, West Coast night games get bullet point recaps, so let’s get to it:
- Bad Monty: Okay, maybe bad is too harsh, but Jordan Montgomery wasn’t good. Solo homers to Jed Lowrie and Yonder Alonso aren’t the end of the world. The second inning rally though. Yeesh. Two quick outs, then a five-pitch walk to No. 7 hitter Matt Chapman (in his first MLB at-bat), a loud ground-rule double to No. 8 hitter Josh Phegley, and a double down the line to No. 9 hitter Adam Rosales gave the A’s two runs. Yuck. Montgomery finished having allowed four runs on seven hits and one walk in 5.2 innings. Not his best outing.
- Rally to Tie: The Yankees stranded the bases loaded in the first inning against Sonny Gray, who promptly settled down to retire 13 of the next 16 batters he faced. It wasn’t until the sixth that the Yankees got on the board. Five straight batters reached base with one out (four singles, one walk), including a two-run single by Chase Headley and a game-tying one-run single by Chris Carter. Shout out to Khris Davis and his Axisa-caliber arm for making those runs possible.
- Back & Forth: The late innings, man. After the Yankees tied the game 3-3 in the top of the sixth, Montgomery gave up the solo homer to Alonso in the bottom half to give the A’s a 4-3 lead. Then, in the top of the seventh, Gary Sanchez smoked a double off the wall to plate the tying run. Two singles and a stolen base gave the A’s a 5-4 lead in the bottom of the seventh. In the top of the eighth, Carter hit a solo jack to tie things up. Matt Joyce beat out a double play ball to score a run in the bottom half for a 6-5 A’s lead. Sanchez came through again in the top of the ninth with a game-tying single. Exactly one run in six straight half innings. The A’s took the lead. The Yankees tied. The A’s took the lead again. The Yankees tied again. The A’s took the lead one more time. The Yankees tied it yet again.
- A Lead & A Loss: I knew I shouldn’t have gotten my hopes up. Thanks to Brett Gardner‘s studly baserunning — he went first-to-third on an infield single! — the Yankees took a 7-6 lead in the top of the tenth on a Starlin Castro sac fly. Woo! One problem: Gio Gallegos was the last guy in the bullpen, apparently. He got two quick outs in the tenth! Then a single, a double, and an intentional walk loaded the bases with two outs. Suboptimal. Gallegos got ahead of Davis with a 1-2 count, missed high with a breaking ball, then left another breaking ball up, which Davis lifted to shallow center. It was in no man’s land. Too far out for the infielder and too far in for the outfielder. Castro ranged out, the ball clanked off his glove, and two runs scored to end the game. 8-7 A’s. Brutal. Absolutely brutal.
- Leftovers: Tyler Clippard, man. He retired only one of the three batters he faced before Joe Girardi yanked him … Dellin Betances actually pitched! He allowed the run-scoring fielder’s choice to Joyce after replacing Clippard, then added a scoreless ninth … Castro and Sanchez each had three hits. Gardner, Headley, and Carter had two each … Aaron Hicks (Achilles) and Sanchez (abductor) left with injuries, though Girardi said after the game neither seems serious … Adam Warren has a trap issue and wasn’t available … and finally, Didi Gregorius extended his hitting streak to 17 games with his sixth inning single. That’s the longest by a Yankee since Jacoby Ellsbury had a 17-gamer in 2014. The last Yankee with a longer hitting streak was Derek Jeter in 2012. He got to 19 games.
Here are the box score, video highlights, and updated standings. Don’t watch the highlights. Just trust me. This four-game set is just getting started. The Yankees and A’s are back it again Friday night, in the second game of the series. Luis Severino and Sean Manaea are the scheduled starters. I wonder how soul-crushing that game will be.

15-inch MacBook Pro refresh could have Intel's new six-core i9 processor
AppleInsider may earn an affiliate commission on purchases made through links on our site.
Intel on Tuesday unveiled its latest laptop processors based on the Coffee Lake platform, most notably bringing its high-performance Core i9 line to laptops for the first time in the same thermal profile that the existing 15-inch MacBook Pro design can accommodate — but the new chips still don't support LPDDR4 RAM.
The Core i9-8950HK is a six-core chip with a base clock speed of 2.9 gigahertz, and Turbo Boost speeds up to 4.8 gigahertz on a single core, Intel said. It nevertheless has the same 45-watt thermal design power as the quad-core, 2.8-gigahertz Core i7 in the entry-level 15-inch MacBook Pro.
While likely vastly more powerful and expensive than the average person needs, Apple could theoretically adopt the chip as a customization option for Pro buyers who run extremely demanding apps such as Final Cut Pro X. In December Apple updated the video editing suite with 8K video support, and the extension of 360-degree VR video to Motion and Compressor.
Those buyers could also take advantage of macOS 10.13.4's external GPU support to provide performance closer to the level of an iMac Pro with the flexibility afforded by a laptop.
Intel has also refreshed its mobile Core i3, Core i5, and i7 lines, including two six-core i7 chips clocked at 2.2 and 2.6 gigahertz, and a quad-core one rated at 2.7. The new i5 chips are quad-core models coming in at 2.3 and 2.5 gigahertz, though there are actually two processors at the 2.3-gigahertz level: one with a 3.8-gigahertz Turbo Boost, a 6-megabyte Smart Cache, and 28-watt TDP, and a second with a 4-gigahertz boost, an 8-megabyte cache, and 45-watt TDP. The current 13-inch MacBook Pro has a 28-watt TDP.
The processors do not support LPDDR4 memory, sticking with the same LPDDR3 as found in the 2016 and 2017 MacBook Pro limiting RAM to 16GB. As a result, should Apple choose to bring 32GB of RAM to any new MacBook Pro, it would have to use DDR4 RAM, and implement a controller for it with both having large impacts on battery life.
Rumors have yet to gather steam for this year's MacBook Pro updates. Apple is reportedly planning to switch to its own custom Mac processors as soon as 2020, though, which for some people could make 2018 models the last they get before Apple transitions away from Intel.

Paper mosaics are a simple and easy craft for all ages. This ice cream cone mosaic is a great project for the summer.
Summer is just a couple of weeks away. I love the summer for so many reasons, but one of my favorites is the ice cream cones. There is nothing better on a hot summer day. If you are looking for an easy and sweet craft for the season, this one is perfect.
This has been an amazing few days. There is still snow in my front yard despite the fact that we have had two warm days in a row, but I don’t even mind. It is almost gone & the nice weather is here. It felt great to get outside. Sunday we spent the day at the park with My daughter’s best little boy friends & yesterday we hit our local drive in for hamburgers & ice cream. She was so happy to get her ice cream cone. Her face said it all. She savored every last messy bite.

Finally, the hype settles down. But we still don’t know much more than we did a few days ago.
The rite of spring known as the NFL Draft came and went with its usual, accompanying cacophony of opinions and overanalysis.
A simple fact remains, though, after all the “war rooms” have been converted back to their normal states: No one knows which teams did well and which teams did not.
We all can root for our favorite teams to select players we think will be good. We can all debate why we think a particular team’s draft was good or not so good.
But when you get right down to it, we just don’t know which players will be good and which ones won’t.
Those are helpful reminders for me as I think about the Broncos’ 2009 draft.
Many people thought the Broncos would emphasize defense. They didn’t. They selected four defensive players and six offensive players. I expected the Broncos to come out of the weekend with a balance of offensive and defensive players. They were closer to that than they were to emphasizing defense.
Broncos Head Coach Josh McDaniels said they stuck to their board. They didn’t take a defensive player simply because there are certain needs on that side of the ball. How can you argue with that?
It is clear that Coach McDaniels believes the Broncos have many positions that need to be fortified. I believe the Broncos took some good steps in improving their roster.
– They drafted Georgia running back Knowshon Moreno 12th overall. I believe Moreno will be an outstanding NFL running back. He is tough, versatile and still young, having played only two years of college football. There is a big part of me that will be surprised if he isn’t the Broncos’ starting running back come September.
Remember, a good running game is a great friend to a defense. If Moreno helps the Broncos up their first down total per game, that is more time the defense gets to be on the sideline. Given the Broncos’ struggles getting tough yards in the red zone the last few years, a running back like Moreno might mean more points per game, too.
– I like the free agent signings of safeties Brian Dawkins and Renaldo Hill. They bring talent and experience. They also bring some age to the position. The Broncos drafted two safeties, Darcel McBath of Texas Tech and Notre Dame’s David Bruton. The Broncos needed depth and needed youth at this position and they got both.
They also apparently got a great special teams player in Bruton. Coach McDaniels called Bruton the best special teams player in the draft. I don’t think any of us need to go back over the special teams numbers from a year ago. Again, if the special teams coverage units improve, other teams will have worse field position, thus helping the Broncos’ defense.
– The Broncos tried to shore up the interior of their offensive line. Ryan Clady ad Ryan Harris are the bookend tackles but the Broncos needed to add some depth to the interior of the line. There are still some questions as to whether center Casey Wiegmann will be back.
– I like the pick of CB Alphonso Smith out of Wake Forest. I know the Broncos gave up a first round pick next year to get Smith. I generally don’t like to see a team do that. But in this case, now is the time. I like that Coach McDaniels and Brian Xanders were aggressive and went after a player they believe will help them.
I also chuckle at the assumption that the pick the Broncos traded to Seattle will likely be a top ten pick. It might turn out to be just that. But we don’t know that yet.
My good friend Stan Cotten announces the Wake Forest games and has seen Smith play for four years. Stan has great things to say about Smith, most notably that “things seem to happen around him.” Smith was a playmaker who covered some of the best receivers in the country (including first-round picks Maryland’s Darrius Heyward-Bey and Hakeem Nicks of North Carolina). Does any of this make Smith a can’t-miss NFL prospect? Of course not. But I won’t bet against him yet, either.
– Without question, the Broncos drafted high-quality people in this year’s draft. I had the opportunity to talk with all five Saturday draft picks and I was thoroughly impressed. All five young men were articulate, sincere, smart and caring. Yet I could also sense they were intensely competitive. I know a successful NFL team has to have talent. If these guys have the talent to contribute, then the Broncos will undoubtedly be far better than we could even hope for.
For as much as I think the Broncos helped themselves in the draft, there is no doubt that questions remain, the biggest of which relates to the defensive line. How good will this unit be? There were no high-profile additions to this area of the team, either through free agency or the draft, so can the players the Broncos have added show themselves to be talented NFL players?
What will the defensive scheme ultimately look like?
Who will emerge as the starting quarterback and will Kyle Orton or Chris Simms be effective?
What will be the make-up of the Broncos offensive backfield?
Will the NFL suspend wide receiver Brandon Marshall and if so, for how many games?
Those and other questions remain. I don’t have the answers to those questions and ultimately, the Broncos don’t either right now.
That’s OK. Just like we don’t know which teams had good drafts at this point, we also don’t yet know which teams will be good and which ones won’t.
But it sure is fun talking about it.
What are your impressions of the Broncos draft? Thanks for reading and offering your thoughts.
Later this week, I’ll bring you some highlights of my interviews with some of the Broncos draft picks.

Internet Advertising Reaches $8.2B in 2000
"The turbulence that has affected all advertising sectors in the past six months has also quite naturally impacted the Internet," said Robin Webster, president/CEO of the IAB. "While we have continued to grow as an industry, that growth has been tempered by the times and I would expect that we will see this reflected in future reports."
The IAB report, conducted with the help of the New Media Unit of PricewaterhouseCoopers, noted that revenue from banner ads continued to decrease in the fourth quarter of 2000, accounting for 40 percent of the quarter's online ad revenue. That figure is down from 46 percent of all revenue in the third quarter and 47 percent for the year. Sponsorships accounted for 31 percent of all revenue in the quarter and 28 percent for 2000. Classifieds accounted for 10 percent of all advertising in the quarter and 7 percent for the year. Referrals were responsible for 5 percent of all ads in the fourth quarter and 4 percent for the year. Interstitials accounted for 5 percent of all online advertising in the fourth quarter and for 4 percent for the year. E-mail was responsible for 4 percent of the fourth quarter's revenue and 3 percent for the year. Rich media accounted for 2 percent in the fourth quarter and 2 percent for the year, and keyword searches were 2 percent in the fourth quarter and 1 percent for the year.
According to Rich LeFurgy, chairman of the IAB, Internet advertising ad spending over the past five years has reached $15.9 billion. He noted that this represents 75 percent to 80 percent of revenue generated by the cable television industry in the same period.
In contrast, Universal McCann, the media buying unit of Interpublic Group, estimates that the combined revenue of broadcast and cable television in 2001 will be about $58.8 billion.
However, Merrill Lynch recently forecast that online ad spending will decline by 25 percent this year to about $6 billion.
The IAB, which recently changed its name from the Internet Advertising Bureau to more accurately reflect its growing membership in interactive media, did not want to commit itself to long range forecasts. However, LeFurgy did say that there is some anecdotal evidence that things are looking up for the industry.
"Significant revenue is being generated," he said. "In 2001 we have a much better base without some of the dot-com business factored in. People are feeling the demand is beginning to uptick. We think we're looking at a good year coming up."
He also noted that overall cost-per-thousand rates are beginning to stabilize because of the continued consolidation in the industry. Advertisers and publishers are stretching their ad dollars to incorporate more innovative forms of advertising like e-mail and rich media.
"The big companies are getting bigger," LeFurgy said. "They are not just relying on banners or sponsorships."

On 7 January, 2017 at Remontowa Shiprepair Yard in Gdańsk, a special docking operation was conducted. The shipyard with the assistance of six tugs, docked the Petrobaltic jack-up rig, using a semi-submersible heavy lift unit REM LIFT 25000.
This has been the 15th offshore platform serviced at Remontowa and the 5th rig docked on board the heavy lift unit so far.
The LOTOS Petrobaltic SA is a company that implements the strategic objectives of the LOTOS Capital Group in the area of exploration and production of hydrocarbons. The company operates in the Polish economic zone of the Baltic Sea, and through its subsidiaries, conducts exploration and prospecting of hydrocarbons deposits and extraction of crude oil and natural gas in Norway and Lithuania.
The Petrobaltic will be converted from a drilling rig into a production unit. Upon completion, the rig will become the central production facility in the B8 field. The launch of commercial production from the field was held in September 2015.
The Petrobaltic is scheduled to remain docked on board the REM LIFT 25000 for three months.

Ike x Marth - Love 14Warning: This is a yaoi.The sudden annoying sound forced the young prince awake. His mind was in a confused state as he blankly stared at the clock.Then an arm came from behind him and smacked the snooze button then fell around his waist.As Marth's brain woke up he smiled and said."Come on Ike, we have to get up."The sleepy swordsman pulled his boyfriend closer and made a muffled sound into his hair.Marth sighed as he felt the warmth of his lovers chest against his back and wished he could fall back asleep.But breakfast awaits them and he knew Ike would be upset if he missed his meal.Marth sadly got out from under the covers and sat up letting Ike's hand flop down on the bed."Come on, wake up." Marth said while he pulled on his underwear.Ike unwillingly sat up with a groan then flopped his arms over Marths' shoulders resting all his weight on the younger teen.Despite what he looks like with cloths on he was quite strong and did have his share of muscles under his shirt so he
SSBB Marth x IkeSSBB Marth x Ike Ike was sitting in a reclining chair, mindlessly staring at the TV in front of him. In his left hand, he held a can of Pepsi. He sipped it every once-in-a-while. On the right arm of the chair sat Marth. Marth was not really watching the movie that was playing, he was thinking about what he was going to say to Ike in about 5 secounds. "Ike," Marth said, "You know, we've been together for a while and... I was thinking," Ike looked up at Marth. "Maybe we could.... step it up a notch," Marth put his hand on Ike's shoulder and looked into his eyes. Ike looked back at the TV, 'Whoa,' Ike thought, 'He doesn't mean... I mean he doesn't think that I would... NOW?' Ike looked up at Marth. "You see," Marth said, "Maybe, JUST maybe, we could finally.... TELL people about us." "Oh," Ike sipped his Pepsi,
Ike x Marth - CookieWarning: This is a yaoi story.Ike's eyes cracked open slightly as the wonderful aroma woke him from his sleep. For a minute all he could do was stare up at the roof and take in the smell as his brain and body woke."What's that smell?" He thought to himself. It smelt like someone was baking?The sleepy swordsman slowly turned his head towards the alarm clock on his bedside table. Ike blinked a couple of times then squinted trying to quicken the process of his eyes adjusting to the darkness of his room."3:32." The mercenary read out loud."Who would be baking this early?" He asked himself as he lifted himself up with his hands so he was sitting upright on his bed.He shivered as the cold night air hit his bare chest and cursed himself for sleeping only in his underwear.Then, with some effort, the blue haired fighter got himself up and out of bed. As he stumbled over to his dresser and started putting on his cloths the delicious scent got stronger and stronger. By the time he was fini
Sleeping Arrangements -fanfic-The time shared by Soubi and Ritsuka late at night is one of their most intimate. Soubi begins to ponder this when Ritsuka is asleep one night.Ritsuka can't stay up long, as Soubi has known for a long time. He tends to pass out at around eleven, which is quite early for Soubi. He likes to watch Ritsuka sleep. He looks so peaceful when he does, so cute, so soft.As much as Kio calls him a pedophile, Soubi only has eyes for one child. He doesn't like other children. They are annoying, arrogant, and, most of all, the stupidest beings on earth. Ritsuka is the opposite of those other kids. He's interesting, humble, and a genius for his age; an angel. Just the mere thought of him makes Soubi smile, if only a little.There are the rare occasions when Soubi gets tired and falls asleep before Ritsuka. It usually only happens when Soubi has been up for more than twenty-four hours, most of the time because of his school projects. Sometimes he just acts like he's asleep. It's apparently a believa
Ike x Marth - Love 35Warning: This is a yaoi."Aren't the stars beautiful?" He asked his fellow swordsman while still focusing on the stars above."Ya, they are." He replied in a calm voice.Marth turned to find Ike staring straight back at him, his head rested on his hand which was propped up on the balcony railing."What are you looking at?" Marth asked slightly confused on why Ike had his eye's on him instead of the sky.The young mercenary cracked a playful yet somewhat cheeky smile and said."Something so much more beautiful." Actual Quote The sparkle in your eye's puts the stars to shame.
Ike x Marth - Love 33Warning: This is a yaoi.Marth continued to worry as he watched his lover stare blankly off into the night sky.He knew something was bothering him but Ike refused to tell him, protesting that he was fine but Marth knew better.The prince had tried for days now to get him to talk but he persisted on keeping his mouth shut.It hurt Marth to know Ike was troubled by something and he couldn't do anything about it.Then he realized that there was something he could do. It wouldn't help his lovers problem particularly but, even if only for a moment, it would make Ike happy."Ike." He called.Once Ike turned to face him, Marth grabbed his shoulders and pulled him down into a passionate kiss. But it didn't last long.Marth pulled away and said in a gentle voice."I love you, you know that right?"Ike's expression quickly softened and the smile that came with it was full of trust, peace and happiness, a smile that can only come when you truly love someone. &

Online retailer Play.com is to shut down its retail business to become a marketplace-only, from March. The Jersey-based firm blamed the move on the ending of Low Value Consignment Relief, which allowed items less than £15 to be sold to the UK VAT-free. All 147 staff in Jersey are to be made redundant as well as 67 in its Cambridge and Bristol offices. Play.com will now become more like a shopping centre, no longer selling directly to customers.
Just to be clear, this doesn’t mean that Play.com is closing, just that it is ending its direct retail business. The Play Marketplace will continue to operate as usual.
Play.com was bought by Japanese e-commerce giant Rakuten (JSD:4755) in 2011. The company was aggressive on the international stage in 2012. It’s other notable setback came back in April when the company shut down Rakuten.cn, its joint venture with Baidu.

It's the height of summer here in the Northern Hemisphere, so that means there isn't a better time for the Carnival (of Space, that is)!
On CNN World, they have an interesting story where science fiction -- specifically Star Trek -- just may be onto something that could one day become science fact. Remember all of those deflector shields the Enterprise gets to use? What if it's possible to build a similar shield for astronauts traveling to Mars?
Over at WeirdWarp, they tackle the question of just where all of the craters on Mercury came from. New images taken with NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft are giving scientists clues about just how these craters and appeared and, perhaps just as importantly, when.
The Urban Astronomer has an excellent synopsis on the new results from the Interstellar Boundary Explorer, or IBEX. This NASA mission gathered new data on the Solar System's tail (think a comet's tail versus a dog's.)
Here on the Chandra blog (http://chandra.harvard.edu/blog/node/446), we have a new look at an old friend: NGC 2392, a.k.a. the Eskimo Nebula. This object represents what our Sun might look like when it runs out hydrogen in its core – about 5 billion years from now.
The blog for the traveling "Here, There, and Everywhere" project gives an account of the exhibit's latest stop at the Springfield-Greene County Library District in Missouri.
At the Venus Transit, they give a heads up about an upcoming shot of Earth that the Cassini spacecraft will take while Saturn is temporarily blocking the Sun. This will be the second time NASA has tried this (the first being back in 2006) and it will be interesting to see if there are any differences between the two.
The Meridian Journal summarizes NASA's plans for the next Mars rover, which was announced last week during a press conference. Things are still early, but NASA is targeting a Curiosity-style rover with new and improved instruments to launch around 2020.
The Next Big Thing chronicles what has been reported to have caused the crash of a rocket carrying three satellites for Russia's GPS system a couple of weeks ago.
Finally, at Links Through Space, they provide coverage of the updates for the "Science Vision for European Astronomy" plan that was first released in 2007. Now, six years later, find out where things are heading.

After the Avakas gorge, the path approaches the village of Pegeia, ascends towards the Pykni forest, crosses the main Pegeia – Kathikas road, follows the old Pegeia - Kathikas road, ending at the village of Pegeia. From there it follows the Pegeia - Akoursos dirt road and fιnishes at the Mavrokolymbos quarry. It then crosses the main Akoursos Pegeia road and reaches a splendid area of natural beauty with waterfalls, a secluded oasis of peace and tranquility.
It is notable that despite intense grazing in the area, the indigenous cypress trees growing along the Κοίli village have managed to surνive. Continuing uphill, the route reaches Κοίlί (alt. 600 m) where one can rest and spend the night. The path then passes through vineyards east of Κοίlί, crosses the main Pafos - Polis Chrysochous road and ends up in Tsada village (alt. 600m), located οn a hill about 8 km north - east of Pafos town.

Just as the boat Ty procurred from Myracruz arrived in the distance, the refugees from Hasfeld, huddled in Laxus Veyenne’s ward heard a group of Solarian Lancers approaching from the other direction. Scott the Scout went to check it out, and found a half squad approaching the town. Kazeem the Irredemable and Laxus went to warn the boat to avoid the town and the soldiers.
Magus Maria Achus convinced Heliel Durian that they couldn’t allow the lancers to be feed to the terrible thing in the well, so they sent Alec Silk to talk them out of going into town. Silk did not want to fight them later, so even across a language barrier, he convinced them to investigate the well, and explained they misunderstood him when he returned, as he dis not speak Solarian and the Soldiers did not speak Tyroc.
The sailors returned to the boat while Ty joined the others at the camp. When night fell, they heard the thing attack the Lancers. Two escaped, and it stopped outside their ward. It spoke with them for a while, and it agreed to spare them from harm if they could bring him Lemaya within the year. It was a woman that he had loved in life. The group agreed, and the monster went after the lancers.
While it was gone, Maria and her apprentice worked to lock the creature out of it’s well, by warding the enterance, and then creating a lock system where they stood in a completed ward, and finished an outer ward once the monster was inside. While they worked, Ty spoke to the town of ghosts trapped in the well. They explained the monster, Garrald of Blackwell had been the local butcher’s son, but when Lemaya left on a pilgrimage, in a fury he killed her family. The town hung him, but he returned form the dead and brought vengance down on them, over five years, until the town was destroyed. he never found Lemaya.
When Garrald returned, dragging trophies, Silk insulted Lemaya, and then jumped inside the completed ward. Garrald ran at it, but couldn’t break it. Laxus closed the outerward, trapping Garrald a creature of the night, between the mystic walls. The sun rose, and began to melt away at the thing’s flesh. Once it was badly injured, Kazim severed it’s head, and Maria severed it’s connection to the mortal world.
To be sure, the refugees decided to bring Lemaya to Blackwell anyways. Laxus suggested for the time being, they sail to Redgate, who traditionally had helped his distant ancestors.

Ignorant. Pathetic. Self-absorbed.
Those are some of the harsh names an Indiana kindergarten teacher called one of her students, and the boy's parents captured it all on tape.
Five-year-old Gabriel Ross complained over the school year that his teacher, Kristen Woodward, was being mean to him, said his mother Tabitha McMahan and stepfather J.R. Edwards. Gabriel told them other kids didn't like him because he was "bad and stupid."
When he began acting out at home, they decided to take action...Full Story

The Lawyer’s new China Elite report contains the most detailed research available on the PRC legal market and contains unparalleled insight into the country's leading law firms. They vary in size, practice focus and geographic coverage, but they all share one common quality – ambition... Read more
This year, The Lawyer’s annual ranking of the largest UK law firms by turnover is available as an interactive, digital benchmarking tool. For the first time this will allow you to manipulate each data set against the metrics of your choice.
The Bar Council’s 25th Annual Conference last week (Saturday 6) revealed staggering statistics on the odds of would-be barristers securing pupillages.
Nicholas Green QC, chairman of the Bar Council of England and Wales, revealed that over 4,000 applicants are now routinely competing for about 460 places.
Green said: “Morally, I have real qualms about a system of education which encourages universities to educate more and more law students, because a law student can be generated at virtually zero marginal cost.”
“These students leave university with substantial debts, often exceeding £30,000. They then invest further in professional training only to find that the door into the profession is very small and the waiting room massively overcrowded,” he added.
He said discussions with students showed that many are seduced into long, tortuous and expensive qualification processes where there is no realistic prospect of them ever being absorbed into the profession.
“For this reason, I welcome the work which the Bar Standards Board has been conducting to attempt to address these issues through an aptitude test. I doubt this goes far enough, but it is in my view a step in the right direction,” he explained.

As one of the most popular holiday destinations in Greece, The Island of Kos became notorious for its beautiful natural sights and beaches, as well as for its sense of hospitality, and ability to cater to even the most discerning travelers. One of the world’s havens for sailing enthusiasts, Kos will definitely spoil you with its raw natural appeal, beautiful seaside and mountains that dip straight into the Mediterranean Sea.
1. Reserve a room with a private swimming pool at AquaBlu Hotel & Spa
The AquaBlu Boutique Hotel & Spa was created by a Greek businessman living in New York City who was born on the island. He has never forgotten the charm and beauty of his hometown. With a passion for forward-thinking design and beautiful art, he turned his hotel into one of the most stunning accommodations in Kos. This is a great place for couples that are looking for a classy, discreet and private stay. It is also perfect for those on their honeymoon, as they are able to book a room with a private swimming pool, giving them a true feeling of exclusivity. This just adds to the high-class standards that the hotel sets. The Spa is wonderful with its indoor swimming pool and 5 Mondes Spa treatment,
2. Have a wonderful romantic dinner at Agios Theologos Kefalos
Greek food is well-known throughout the world: the Mediterranean and the unique produce it brings, along with Kos’ unique settings of seaside and mountains make for a truly unique culinary tradition that can be sampled at one of the Islands best restaurants. Particularly well-known for its grilled fish delicacies, Agios Theologos Kefalos is a true mecca for seafood lovers and traditional meld such as Revani, a homemade cake made directly by the owner’s wife, adding a family touch to the menu. As you enjoy a world class meal, the amazing view on the sea will provide an unforgettable atmosphere that you’ll treasure throughout your life: the place is incredibly romantic at sunset, and it feels charmingly alone in a marvelous spot by the sea!
3. Sail on the Aegean Sea with Istion Yachting and discover small islands miles from Kos
As the island is a true sailing paradise, it would be a shame not to experience the beauty of sailing when in Kos! It is possible to get out at sea for a day or more, renting sailing boats with a skipper, as well as your own hostess from Istion local office, one of the most reliable boat chartering companies. Istiion offers luxury catamaran rides and Benetteau Oceanis sail boats with experienced skippers who will take you to all the best spots that only people in-the-know have heard about! This is a truly magical experience, particularly when the skipper himself will teach and let you try your hand at it, looking for the best wind for a fast run! My wife and I had the chance to sail with Andy, an English skipper who showed us some of the best spots and shared his passion for sailing on the Dodecanese Sea on his great Oceanis 45. Discovering nearby islands such as Pserimos, a place with only a small population and far from being a mainstream tourist hub, was a really great experience.
4. Visit the impressive castle of Kos
One of the landmarks of the land, this structure dates back to the 14th century and it went on to become one of the most visited local attractions. This is a place where history blends in with the beauty of nature. The castle is definitely one of the most significant spots within the old town of Kos, as well as its most distinctive feature. This particular piece of historical heritage doesnt only make for a stunning marriage between man-made structures and nature, but it also highlights the depth and multi-layered background of Greek history, loved and celebrated all over the globe for its undying influence on human civilizations worldwide, on the traces of the Byzantine and Ottoman empire!
5. Stop for a lazy afternoon and a drink on Eleftherias Square and reminisce about ancient philosophy under the Hippocrates’ tree
Eleftherias Square is at the core of local life: a charming place where you can stop for a drink and enjoy Greek culture. The square is really only a little way away from main tourist attractions such as the likes of Hippocrates’ tree. As the third largest island on the Dodecanese, Kos is definitely one of the busiest tourist hubs in Greece, although it does not feel overcrowded at all. This is a place where you can enjoy some relaxing times, even though you will definitely find liveliness and excitement here, as this is where not only foreigners converge, but also tourists from other parts of Greece, as well as locals. I definitely treasured my stay on the island, which is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated destinations in Greece!

Sliding Glass Arcadia Doors Open Your House to The Outside
A Sliding Glass Door or Arcadia Door is a cost effective way to allow you to keep the heat and cold out while allowing you to bring the outside in by having a glass door to view the outside with. These doors typically go great in a living room or as an exit to a master bedroom into the back yard.
Why Is A Sliding Glass Door Called An Arcadia Door?
The term Arcadia Door comes from the Arcadia Door Company, one of the original leaders in, and perhaps the inventor of, these types of sliding glass doors. Not that the Arcadia Door Company wasn’t making good sliding glass doors, but they have gone on to bigger and better things, such as glass for office buildings, condo towers, and commercial work. They no longer are offering an updated version that sliding glass door which you might be thinking of replacing, but don’t worry – we have everything from basic Low-E, Dual Pane, replacement sliding doors to exceptional wood clad sliding glass doors where the interior of the door can be matched to your cabinets or trim.
As an independent dealer, Elite Architectural Supply has access to multiple product lines including:
MI Sliding Glass Doors
- 5000 Series Aluminum
- Homemaker 3 – Standard Vinyl Sliding Glass Doors
- EnergyCore Series – Insulated Vinyl Sliding Glass Doors
- RegalView Thermally Broken Aluminum Sliding Glass Doors
International Window Corporation
Jeld-Wen Sliding Glass Doors From Standard to Premium
Windsor Sliding Glass Doors Thermally Broken, Wood Clad Patio Doors
We suggest that you look at these options and then ideally discuss your application with one of our sales staff. With so many options and so many manufacturers, it is important for you to understand what you are buying and why you want to consider it. For instance, on the MI line of windows above which are our most popular, you might want to consider a Series 5000 which is a very good quality aluminum patio door. But, then if you have more sun exposure and a bit higher budget, you can upgrade to the Homemaker 3 which is an insulated vinyl patio door. Or, perhaps if you have a house with very large picture windows and you want to match all of those windows with the door, then might not be able to use vinyl due to larger windows not being offered in a vinyl product and have to either step either down to the Series 5000 Aluminum or up to the Regal View Aluminum Thermally Broken.
Which Sliding Glass Door Is Right For My House?
While we make Sliding Glass Doors simple, every house is different and every line is different. For instance, if you need a patio door for a larger 1950 ranch style house in Phoenix you would likely need an aluminum product to allow for larger door and window sizes. But, if you had a 1950 Sun City Ranch style house, this typically will have smaller windows allowing you to choose between vinyl or aluminum windows. Got a 1979 stucco ranch style house in Scottsdale, the HOA may require larger windows of a certain color which typically moves us to an aluminum product if you want to maintain large picture windows free of obstructions. With windows, there is a lot of product knowledge that requires someone to explain how it is going to fit into your houses.
Not Just One Manufacturer of Sliding Glass Doors, But Multiple Manufacturers.
We also have access to many other manufacturers not listed here which might meet your needs if you have a desire for something more modern, classic, or depending on budget you may also wish to consider French Doors or a Bi-Folding Door as different, but typically more expensive alternative to a sliding glass door
Which Glass Should I Choose For My Sliding Glass Door?
We also offer various types of Low-E Glass for these doors. Don’t get boxed in by a local manufacturer or a captive dealer with only one product line or without all of the differing glass selections. Make the right choice when replacing your Sliding Glass Door at an independent dealer with access to multiple product lines.
Why Elite Windows and Doors?
Elite Windows and Doors, located in Scottsdale and locally owned, is a leading supplier of Sliding Glass Doors to Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, and Sun City. With in-house sales, installation,and service you can be assured of a quality job. Call today for suggestions or to set a free home consultation. There is a difference both before and after the sale.

Sep 28 2013
WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Congressman Pete Sessions (R-TX), Chairman of the House Rules Committee, today released the following statement regarding House passage of H.J. Res. 59, the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, and H.R. 3210, the Pay Our Military Act:
“Tonight House Republicans once again moved forward with a responsible plan to keep the government running while providing the American people with relief from ObamaCare. Our plan repeals the job-destroying medical device tax and delays ObamaCare for every American. The President has already admitted that his health care law is unworkable for businesses. Now it is time for his Administration to acknowledge that it won't work for individuals and families either.
“In addition to delaying ObamaCare and repealing one of its most onerous taxes, we approved a bill to ensure that our nation’s brave men and women in the military will get paid in the event of a government shutdown. I stand proudly with my House Republican colleagues and urge Senate Democrats to join us in keeping the government open, stopping ObamaCare, and protecting our troops.”

If you sew for a hobby or professionally, you may have already tried making a circle skirt. Making this type of skirt requires a lot of measurement and circle skirt math which you can do easily with the use of a circle skirt calculator. This is a very useful online tool since it serves as a full circle skirt calculator, a half circle skirt calculator, and a 3/4 circle skirt calculator too.
How to use the circle skirt calculator?
This is a handy calculator which you can use for different purposes. After taking the required measurements, you can enter the values in the required fields and it performs the calculations for you. Here are the steps to follow for this circle skirt calculator:
- First, select the Type of skirt you plan to make from the drop-down menu.
- Then enter the value of the Waist and choose the unit of measurement from the drop-down menu.
- Finally, enter the value of the Skirt Length and choose the unit of measurement from the drop-down menu.
- After entering all of the required values, the calculator performs the circle skirt math for you to provide you with the values for the Waist Radius and the Fabric Length.
How much fabric do I need for a skirt?
A circle skirt is a flowing type of skirt which, when you spread it out flat, creates a circle shape hence the name. Sewing a circle skirt quite easy, especially after you’ve taken the measurements and cut out the fabric. After this, all you need to do is sew both ends together then ass the hem and the waistband.
The trickiest part of sewing a circle skirt is converting the measurements you’ve acquired into your pattern. But when you use a full circle skirt calculator, you don’t have to perform the required calculations manually which makes your job easier. For this type of skirt, you need two take two measurements namely:
- The waist circumference which you measure at the waistband level.
- The skirt’s length which you also measure at the waistband level.
After taking the measurements, you can think about the type of skirt you want to make. Then you can input the values you’ve measured in the circle skirt calculator. For a 3/4 circle skirt, this calculator serves as a 3/4 circle skirt calculator and so on. Keep in mind that the smaller the fraction of your skirt is, the less fabric you’ll need.
Aside from using this circle skirt calculator or a circle skirt chart, you can also perform the calculations manually to find out how much fabric you need. To do this, solve for the radius from the middle of the skirt to its waistband:
When making a full circle skirt, use this formula: R = waist / 2π – 2
When making a 3/4 circle skirt, use this formula: R = 4/3 * waist / 2π – 2
When making a half circle skirt, use this formula: R = 2 * waist / 2π – 2
When making a quarter circle skirt, use this formula: 4 * waist / 2π – 2
Adding – 2 at the end of each of the formulas to accommodate the seam allowance. After this first calculation, it’s time to find the length of fabric you’ll need using this formula:
fabric length = length + R + 2
You may notice – 2 again which you still include or the hem allowance. After finding both values, spread your fabric out. Then draw two circles which share a common center. One circle is of radius R while the other circle is of fabric length F. Cut out the pattern and start sewing!
What is a half-circle skirt?
Before using this half-circle skirt calculator, you must first learn what a half circle skirt is. The design of a half circle skirt should fit your waist well then flare outward elegantly on your hips. This type of skirt flatters any figure which makes it a very popular choice.
When the weather gets warmer, you’ll see a lot of women wearing half-circle skirts. It’s an easy and breezy piece of clothing to wear in the summer and you can also pair it with tights for chilly weather. The great thing about a half circle skirt is that it’s easy to make and you can use the same pattern to make skirts of different sizes.
Choose an appropriate fabric when you plan to make this type of skirt. During the winter months, you may choose a weightier fabric while you can go for a light and flowy kind of fabric for your summer or springtime skirt.
Before hemming a half circle skirt, you may want to place it on a mannequin first then leave it overnight to “drop.” Since some parts of this skirt hang on its bias, hanging the skirt on a mannequin allows these parts to naturally stretch own to make your hem more even.
How do you measure for a pleated skirt?
If you’re planning to create a pleated skirt, you don’t have to use this full circle skirt calculator or a circle skirt chart. Unlike circle skirts, sewing pleated skirts is more costly and complex. This is why people used to consider such skirts as a luxury item.
Don’t let the history of pleated skirts scare you. If you sew professionally or as a hobby, you will have to make this kind of skirt at some point. So let’s learn how to take the measurements:
For the skirt itself which requires a rectangular fabric
- For the length, measure the length of the skirt from the waist down. Also, take the measurement of the bottom hem and the upper seam. To get the value of the length, add all of these measurements together.
- For the width, you need to multiply the measurement of the waist by 3. Then double the value of the seam allowance you’ve taken from both sides.
For the band of the skirt which requires a long fabric rectangle
- For the length, multiply your desired length measurement by 2. Then add this value to the allowance of the seam on both sides.
- For the width, add the waist measurement, the seam allowance on both sides and extra value to accommodate overlapping.

This course meets the General Education requirement in Arts/Humanities.
This course meets the General Education requirement in Critical Thinking.
This course meets the General Education requirement in Diversity.
- VI. Catalog Course Description
- This course examines drama from Greek theater to plays by current playwrights. Readings include work from diverse cultural contexts, including, for example, plays by women, African Americans, other minorities, and non-Western playwrights. The emphasis is on play construction, dialogue, staging, themes and cultural values, symbols and motifs, and character development.
- VII. Required Course Content and Direction
Course Learning Goals
- analyze literature through discussion and writing [Critical Thinking & Arts/Humanities];
- demonstrate an understanding of such literary terms, themes, strategies, and issues as are relevant to the works being studied;
- articulate their understanding of the relationship between literature and the historical/cultural contexts in which it was written [Arts/Humanities];
- read and analyze plays of various periods and representing various points of view, including gender, ethnic identity, and different cultures [Diversity]; and
- identify the elements of drama, such as form and scenic contrast, symbol and myth, music/dance, theme and message, language and dialogue, staging and performance, character and conflict.
Planned Sequence of Topics and/or Learning Activities
This course provides a general introduction to a wide range of dramatic literature. The course covers the history of drama from antiquity to the present; it includes significant periods or movements (e.g., Ancient, Medieval and Renaissance, Modern and Contemporary, Absurd Theater, etc.). The course demands disciplined examination of the anatomy of dramatic literature, broadly defined to include a wide range of theatrical experiences, including non-Western plays and plays by women and minority playwrights.
- Students enter the course both with and without training in verbal or written analysis of literature; therefore, a subsidiary set of objectives dealing with literary analysis may be imported as individual student needs dictate.
- Reading remains the basic learning method available to students although various means of instruction are employed: Lectures, group discussion, mock trials, role playing, individual or group presentations to the class, media presentations, team teaching, library research, etc.
- Through reading, writing, discussion, and various class activities, students identify, explain, and analyze the following: formal elements of the literature, particularly images, image patterns, narrative strategies, diction, and structural divisions of the work; themes and thematic patterns; literary periods, movements, and terms as appropriate to the literature.
- The writing requirement complies with Department standards for literature courses, a minimum of 2500 words. Writing assignments reflect the course goals that students can comprehend, interpret,
- Students use various critical frameworks for the analysis of literature (e.g., New Criticism, feminist, Marxist, queer theory, and (post)structural approaches).
- In this disciplinary context, the Department of Language and Literature views "Diversity" as concerning identity factors such as gender, sexuality, (dis)ability, race, ethnicity, social and economic class, and nationality. This list is neither prescriptive nor exhaustive; individual instructors are encouraged to consider how such identity factors bear upon the content of their courses.
Assessment Methods for Course Learning GoalsTo evaluate all learning goals and objectives, instructors may determine the depth and quality of student comprehension and critical thinking through several analytical essays (2500 words total required), exams, quizzes, journals, oral or multi-media presentations, class discussions, conferences with individual students, service learning projects, and other methods as appropriate to course content.
Reference, Resource, or Learning Materials to be used by Student:Instructors may choose an appropriate anthology or individual texts. While readings are at the instructor's discretion, selections include representative works from both tragedy and comedy and span the history of dramatic literature from the Classical period to the present. See course syllabus.

BRISTOL, Tenn. (AP) Carl Edwards won his second straight NASCAR Sprint Cup pole Friday, helping Joe Gibbs Racing take four of the top five spots in qualifying Friday at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Edwards, the winner at Bristol in March 2014, earned his third pole at the track and second consecutive No. 1 spot after also topping qualifying last week at Texas. He had a fast lap of 127.997 mph in the No. 19 Toyota Camry on the 0.533-mile track. Kurt Busch also won consecutive poles this season.
That could bode well for Edwards, whose previous two Bristol poles yielded a second in March 2011 and one of his three wins in August 2008.
''This one's really special because Bristol is tough,'' Edwards said. ''I feel really good about chances in the race because of the race trim we ran.''
Next was teammate and defending race winner Matt Kenseth at 127.419, with Joey Logano third in a Ford at 127.191. That duo each has two wins over the past five Bristol races.
Denny Hamlin will start fourth and Kyle Busch fifth in JGR Toyotas. Busch has swept the past two NASCAR weekends.
Edwards stood 10th after the first practice and was second to Logano after the first qualifying round. He fell a spot to third after the second round but turned it on in the final session for his 18th career pole.
''That's pretty cool to run a less than 15-second lap,'' Edwards said. ''It's a real testament to my guys and everybody on this team has been working so hard.
''You see it each week the JGR Toyotas are up front and these cars are really nice to drive. Dave Rogers (crew chief) and everybody did a really nice job.''
Martin Truex Jr. qualified eighth to make it five Toyotas in the top 10. Trevor Bayne (10th) was the other Ford driver.
Jimmie Johnson (sixth), Kevin Harvick (seventh) and A.J. Allmendinger (ninth) rounded out the top 10.
WHAT TO EXPECT: Kyle and Kurt Busch have the most Bristol wins among active drivers with five each, while Kenseth has four. Given Kyle Busch's overall record here and recent sweep of Martinsville and Texas, it wouldn't be a stretch if he took charge again on Sunday. He could have plenty of company from guys who have been just as strong here.
WRECKED: Ty Dillon, driving the No. 14 Chevy in place of injured Tony Stewart, spun coming off turn 2 during qualifying and made contact with the back of Landon Cassill's No. 38 Ford. He appeared to clip the apron and spun before the right side of his car got into Cassill's rear.
FAST ROOKIES: Ryan Blaney was 18th in the No. 21 Ford with a speed of 125.330 mph. Chase Elliott was right behind him at 125.134 in the No. 24 Chevy.
MIXED BAG: Six-time champion Jimmie Johnson has one win and one pole in 28 Bristol starts. On other hand, he has 16 top-10s and 10 top-fives and was fairly happy with his qualifying effort. ''Practice sessions can be quite frustrating for us here and qualifying sessions,'' he said. ''To be off to a good, calm, smooth, fast start is really good for us.''

Six years later, Scully works in a Catholic hospital and Mulder is a hermit in their remote home in rural Virginia. They are pulled back in an FBI investigation involving a pedophile priest pretending to have visions that may help solve a case of abducted women. The abductions prove to be the work of a man trying to save his dying lover thanks to full-body transplants operated by a Russian doctor. This experience strains Mulder and Scully's relationship but they stand united against a darkness that keeps finding them.
Following the series finale, Carter & Spotnitz remained the creative team of the X-Files franchise. "IWTB" was written by Carter & Spontitz, who now seem to act as entirely equal accomplices in the franchise, and directed by Carter, his first feature film directorial debut. To ensure continuity, but also because Carter likes to surround himself with collaborators he trusts, Carter got many key persons of the TenThirteen TV crew behind the scenes for IWTB: cinematographer Bill Roe (and his predecessor John Bartley, here in the second unit), production designer Mark Freeborn, producer Paul Rabwin, visual effects gurus Mat Beck and David Gauthier, and of course assistant director Tom Braidwood and composer Mark Snow (with music editor Jeff Charbonneau)... this list is far from complete! Also, in an explicit will to return to the roots of the show and strike that fine mysterious atmospheric mood that made it successful -- and in an implicit confession that the show had strayed from its initial style in its later seasons -- the shooting was done in Vancouver.
Franz Tomczeszyn, of Russian descent, was an altar boy in the Catholic church when he was young; he was one of 36 altar boys to be raped by pedophile priest Joseph Crissman; sadly, XF is once again inspired by true stories. Franz eventually fell in love with Russian emigrant Janke Dacyshyn (they still spoke English between them) and they got married in Massachussets, a State that allows same-sex marriage. Like 'Krycek', the names are not Russian (they originate from Spotnitz and Carter's entourage). But Franz fell ill of lung cancer. To save him, Janke called help from his home country and brought Dr. Uroff-Koltoff and his medical team to the USA. Extreme experiments on dogs in organ transplants and stem cell research had allowed this "Frankenstein"-like doctor to reach an unprecedented rate of success in transplants of entire limbs and even heads, resulting in creatures like a two-headed dog; such transplants were not rejected for weeks. Janke hoped to do the same for Franz, to give him a healthy body. Janke enlisted as an organ transporter in order to gain access to organs and to medical information over organ donors. Organs were stolen and donors were abducted to experiment on human limbs transplants and to perfect the head transplant procedure before attempting it on Franz; the waste organs and bodies were disposed of in the wild, encased in a solidified gelatinous material ("dirty glass"). Whether it was because Janke liked women's bodies as well (the pool scene) or because his own body reminded him of his experience with Father Joe, Franz asked to have his new body to be that of a woman. Organ donor and FBI Agent Monica Bannon was the first victim whose body received Franz's head, a decision perhaps precipitated by Franz's wounding by Bannon. Cheryl Cunningham was then abducted to replace the soon-to-be-rejected body in this yet experimental procedure. In true X-Files fashion, this is arguably directly based on reality: similar experiments were conducted on dogs in the Soviet Union of the 1950s, in the era of extreme medical experiments such as those of Unit 731 (3X10: 731) and the beginnings of eugenics (1X10: Eve) -- unless such footage spread in the internet is another hoax perpetrating a modern legend.
Excommunicated from the Church, Father Joe went on to castrate himself to stop his urges and sought for redemption from the Church but more importantly from God himself. He volunteered to live in a dorm for sex offenders, where the offenders "police themselves"; this claustrophobic and grim setting where those rejected by societal norms are thrown into does have something to say about alienation in modern societies -- not by advocating paedophilia as something that is acceptable but by pointing out the lack of willingness to believe in the abilities of the individual to change and surpass his mistakes, despite western societies defending the very Catholic concept of forgiveness.
(Ex-)Father Joe came by his own volition to the FBI claiming to have visions of these abductions, visions similar to what we saw in 3X08: Oubliette or 5X16: Mind's Eye. The fact that we do not 'see' Father Joe's visions adds to the doubts over the veracity of his claims. In many X-Files episodes, and initially in the premise of the show itself, no definitive answers were given, giving both the rational and the paranormal explanations valid arguments but not giving definitive closure at the end. When he says that Bannon is alive just when her severed head was found, a part of her is in fact alive: the part of her attached to Franz -- so proof that he was a fraud could also be interpreted as proof that his visions are true. Joe and Franz suffer seizures simultaneously, their eyes bleed blood and they suffer and die from lung cancer at the same moment.
The Joe-Franz connection and Joe's visions are ultimately unarguably real, but the unknown factor is the why: why did Joe started having these visions and who sent them to him? Joe's visions come randomly, he does not command them just as he did not command his paedophiliac impulses. Quotes of holy scripture find their way into the dialogue: "through dirty glass" comes from Corinthians 13:12 ("For now we see in a mirror dimly", more known as "through a glass darkly") and Father Joe's "Proverbs 25:2" supernaturally helps Scully to locate the villains in the end. Further shades of grey can be added by noting that the murderous deeds Franz is capable of in the present can be traced back to the scars left by Joe's own deeds on a younger Franz -- evil begetting evil as an aspect of human nature. The moral ambiguity and complex narrative of the involvement of God with a pedophile priest leading or being led to stop a strain of murders, the creation of which he himself contributed, is the heart of IWTB's X-File.
Thus the story of IWTB mixes two very X-Filish subjects in a convulted story -- extreme science with supernatural visions -- and indeed fulfils its promise of returning to the roots of the show, with reminiscence of episodes like 1X15: Young at Heart or 3X04: Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose.
Mulder and Scully steal the show
As Spotnitz stresses, IWTB's real focus is the Mulder and Scully relationship, done to an extent that the formulaic nature of the TV series, balanced between casework and mytharc imperatives, was unable to provide for. This is a very personal story, a human drama that indeed was never attempted in the series -- and despite my little fondness for the 'MSR' it is reassuring to see these two tortured souls grow together. Perhaps the biggest gamble IWTB took was to present two bleak, mature characters as its leads, also reinforced by the winter setting.
After The Truth, Mulder and Scully retreated into semi-anonymity in a house in rural Virginia, where they lived as a couple away from the FBI and its growing infiltration by the alien Supersoldiers. Six years later, they are still themselves. Mulder is still somewhat of a hermit, grew a beard, recreated his office in his home, full of case files and newspaper clippings. Scully is still a scientist; she realized her dream of becoming a doctor by joining in a catholic hospital, keeping with her religious faith.
The ex-agents are drawn back in casework. The previously familiar halls of the FBI headquarters now feel menacing to the two leads, halls now filled with agents looking at them as aliens whodo not belong there, a situation made even more weird by the presence of President Bush's portrait -- apart from the tragic/comedic unexplainable nature of his presence there, the X-Files were also absent for 6 of the 8 years of his term. Mulder accepts to join the investigation only if Scully comes along: "I'm only part of the team", Mulder says. Mulder is the one the FBI asks for, but he is ineffective alone; when Mulder storms the Russians' lair in the end, like a lonesome cowboy waving his gun, he is destined to fail. As we know, they can work and 'fight the future' only together.
Once Mulder gets involved, he is consumed by his work. The reference to his sister Samantha is not fortuitous nor does it invalidate its earlier resolution: Samantha is the ultimate and timeless symbol for Mulder's Quest, the scar that he will always be reminded of and will always set him out to another search. For him, re-establishing the Truth, in this case about the sincerity of the disgraced Father Joe's claims, is important for its own sake, even if the man this is all about is no longer of this world.
IWTB's extra focus on Scully, both in her dedicated storyline in the hospital and in her being the one that comes to the rescue of her partner, somehow counterbalances Fight the Future's focus on Mulder. Scully thought she would be able to syncretize harmoniously her two inclinations, faith and science, in a catholic hospital, however she comes against thorns there as well. She starts acting alone and outside what the mainstream thinking of the clergy and hospital administration allows. By the film's end, where she is observed and looked down at by three nuns as she is about to perform the operation, she has 'successfully' become an outsider to that organization just like Mulder had been named "Spooky Mulder" from within the FBI so many years before. Still, it is not science nor religious faith that Scully rejects: on the contrary, she believes her devotion to medicine and her christian faith to be pure. What IWTB criticizes is organized religion and conventions in the practice of science. A rejection of institutions has been a trademark of the X-Files and indeed all of Carter's works: the military and the government in the X-Files ("a collaboration of men" as Mulder says in The Truth), the alieating and faceless society in "Millennium", the Church in IWTB.
All in all, many aspects of IWTB remind of "Millennium" (or, to be more precise, its first season, which was exclusively Carter's creation) more than "The X-Files": more adult characters, a more realistic approach, an evil originating from Man rather than monsters or aliens, some religious overtones, Bible quotes involved in the storyline. There are even explicit references: the scene of a 'psychic' character leading an investigative task force to bodies hidden underground is found both in IWTB and in the pilot of Millennium (with Frank Black in the role of Father Joe)!
The trouble with the script
So with all these fine and interesting elements, why does the outcome feel like less than the sum of its parts? If a moderate noromo tells you that the best scenes of the film were those involving Mulder and Scully, you know there's something wrong!
IWTB's principal character intrigue is a debate between Mulder and Scully over their trademark character traits: Mulder's readiness to believe and complete devotion to a case, and Scully's desire for a life free of all that ("darkness"). Given their situation as a couple, however, IWTB ends up being nothing more than a couple's mundane argument over non-mundane things. Considering the profound roots of their relation, the intrigue does not come across as very engaging or perilous for their future together. Scully's instantaneous change of opinion over what they should do (first she pulls Mulder into the case, then she wants him out) further harms suspension of disbelief.
The script was (re-)written to focus more on the Mulder/Scully relationship and this in concept could have made a fine movie, but this displaced the "monster of the week" aspect by too much. Ambitions of making "XF2" a character study are noble, but XF has always been about the plot rather than the characters, even in its more character-driven episodes (the mythology), and despite its good starting ideas a strong plot is what IWTB lacks. All the layers and moral depth spawning from the case as described above are not encouraged by the plot but are rather results of a research from viewers to connect the dots; when once this could have been considered as clever and intelligent storytelling, here it feels forced and artificial. The stairway discussion in 4X24: Gethsemane is strikingly more powerful and more to the point than anything IWTB has to say on faith.
The X-Files were famous for developing memorable villains. IWTB's villains are very sketchily fleshed out and they are hardly given any scenes to develop: apart from scenes that exist for thrills and merely establish them as antagonists with dark motivations and the short finale, they are given no scene to shine in, no spooky lines or confessions that would make memorable actor moments. The main villain is just that, a menacing villain; and I don't care if he's a cliché Russian ambisexual pervert, his Russian ambisexual pervert partner must definitely think he needs a toothbrush! The storyline presented Franz and Janke, whose actions are only the reflection of how far they are willing to go to keep their love alive: the murders are only the side-effect of a labour of love (a story very similar to that of horror B-movie "The Brain that wouldn't Die" (1962)). But if the Russian couple is the anti-Mulder and Scully, in that they go to unethical extremes in the name of love, this was lost in the transition from story to script: we are given far too little to connect with them and feel for them.
The X-Files also excelled in its supporting characters. Father Joe's 'bleeding eyes' made for a beautiful shock factor shot and went no further than that, but his argument with Scully was a great moment for Connolly and Anderson. In the end Father Joe's complex and toned down character makes a decent addition to XF's long list of psychics such as Luther Lee Boggs (1X12: Beyond the Sea) or Clyde Bruckman (3X04: Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose). The other supporting characters are strikingly stereotyped and underused. Whitney and Drummy are like younger versions of Mulder and Scully, one a believer in the fringes of the FBI and one agent that gives those theories little credit. Whitney's character was becoming interesting with her potentially coming between Mulder and Scully (if that soap operatic element can be called interesting), but this storyline was cut short when she was killed off too prematurely, to establish the villain as a real threat. Just then, when Drummy could have become more important, he is offed in order to accomodate a cameo by Skinner. Either character, Drummy or Skinner, could have filled both roles and the character would have gained in depth, but as it is Drummy's insignificance is accentuated.
A series of storytelling shortcuts and simplifications further detracts from the film. Scully convinces Christian's parents to continue his treatment with a simple 'what if'. Scully uses Google (not even GoogleScholar!) and websites that look straight out of 1990s Geocities to learn on Stem Cell Research and becomes a specialist in a demanding medical topic overnight. Mulder's humor is like that of old, right until it becomes repetitive (there are nine "ass" jokes in a row). Scully's "scratchy beard" and "just a little something?" lines feel ripped off a bad fanfic and are violently out of character. The opportunity of having an "XF2" is used to pepper the film with a load of private jokes, a technique already used in the opening credits of season 9; as cute and appreciated as they may be, they serve no real purpose and do not make up for storytelling shortcomings. The biggest shortcoming may be that the case is solved by both Mulder and Scully independently and simultaneously, and thanks to coincidences on both their behalf. Mulder's investigative skills lead him to the villain thanks to a simple visit to a local store; stem cell research for organ transplants and for curing Christian allow the two storylines to cross, but Scully having a revelation by finding the villain's research on the internet through a non-related search draws the odds extremely. There is little actual investigation and the case is wrapped up too quickly. All those are little things -- but they pile up to too much.
Finally, it is proof of the script's imperfection that unintended conclusions are drawn from it. And I'm not only talking about accusations of homophobia that barely stand. "Don't give up" may be a nice, if simplistic, motto, however the decision to inflict pain on Christian for the sake of the advancement of science when his own parents and the anti-euthanasia Church is willing to let him go does lead to a heavy moral ambiguity. IWTB's X-File might have been much stronger in the earlier lost draft, but many subtelties and the elements that made a strong stand-alone story must have been lost somewhere between the rewrite, the shift of focus to Mulder and Scully and the way it was executed onscreen.
The story is not everything: success greatly depends on the story's treatment by the other cinematic tools.
For IWTB, Carter chose a winter rural setting where everything -- landscape and sins -- is covered by a pure white snow; the sun never appears (but for the last scene). The Russians' lair is filled with the sound of menacing dogs and an unhealthy dirt, contradicting with the need for a sterile medical environment. Scalpels are mixed with badly ground axes; the third act is highly evocative of the unsettling mood of golden age horror films. The direction of photography is indeed impeccable. The editing, given the raw material, is fine as well. Notably the two scenes cross-cutting between settings, the teaser and the Janke chase scene, are mastered well: continuity elements serve as transitions (in the teaser: dogs and people falling down and to their knees) and both settings build to a climax (in the chase: the discovery of Bannon's head and the death of Whitney).
Mark Snow's music is excellent. There is a very modern electronic sound mixed with sampled orchestral passages that we had not heard in the series, along with some occasional touches taken right off the series' soundscapes. The tune from the Fight the Future score ("Crossroads") is reprised in "Trip to DC", finally doing it justice as it was not actually used in the first film. To the trademark XF ambient tracks are added uncharacteristic melodic tracks for the relationship storyline; these are a definite musical success, even though they do not blend as well with the picture -- a nostalgic piano sounds too conventional and easy for a kiss scene. Another novelty of the soundtrack is the use of themes, something that XF very rarely used: a chase theme, a love theme and maybe the 'unremarkable house' theme.
There are pacing problems with IWTB. Paradoxically, at 105 minutes, the story feels rushed and the movie feels too long. Perhaps by trying too hard to dictate a desolate mood for its matured characters, the flow of the story suffers from sudden shifts between a series of calm scenes and few action pieces. The first third of the film flows well with the joy of reuniting with these charaters. The middle of the film tries to set a tone but dialogue that could use a rewriting in scenes following each other too mechanically give more of an impression that this story was stretched to fill in theatrical shoes. Then the chase scene in the building under construction lasts twice as much as it should and Whitney shouts "Mulder!" about ten times too many. The third act ends with a resolution that is wrapped up too quickly compared to the length of the buildup: Scully knocks down the bad guy and three shots later Scully prepares to undo a complicated medical operation, cut to the next scene.
The directing itself, though it fills its role of telling a story, lacks imagination. Only once, the second abduction scene after the pool, is the majestic mountainous landscape rendered in beautiful panoramic shots. There are some good finds, such as the oppressing shots from the point of view of the girl enclosed in the cage, but the rest of the film is painfully linear and seems made for television instead of using the larger angles cinema would benefit from. Carter had excelled in the episodes he directed for the series (2X05: Duane Barry); in his first theatrical direction he seems overly cautious.
In limbo since the waning ratings of the later seasons, "XF2" was given a shot by Fox in late 2007 only because of the Writers Guild of America strike, which had resulted in Fox not having any major release in the summer of 2008. IWTB was given a go because Carter promised a very fast production and a good return on investment. The script was written and finalized in a matter of weeks -- one could say rushed. 6-7 months to have a film ready is amazingly fast. The defenders of IWTB will endlessly complain about the budget (but look at what a feast Darren Aronofsky did with $35 million: "The Fountain" (2006)), the fact that it's low-key 'intellectual' and not blockbuster-like (so is "There Will Be Blood" (2007), $25 million, and countless other generally agreed upon masterpieces), the lousy promotion (but look at what good word of mouth can do with a movie few believed in in the beginning: "The Matrix" (1999), $65 million), the unforseen success of "The Dark Knight" as competition (hardly an argument) or trends in selfish cinema critics (as if a bad reception is the sole result of a conspiracy).
However what will remain in history is not the whys and hows but the what: the final product itself. And the truth is that if IWTB featured characters other than Mulder and Scully, this would be a not very memorable movie. Those who were drawn to XF after watching IWTB must be a meager audience share. As Carter says, this was made as a gift to the fans; "XF2" was designed as the last outing of the franchise. The last we see of Mulder and Scully, that much talked about boat scene, is clearly done as a farewell to the fans (or should one say to the shippers, given the word play with 'ship'); but as much as this was done in a semi-canon fashion and should be taken lightly, seeing these characters in that setting in the X-Files is a very distrubing concept.
During its promotion, Carter stated that XF was all about faith and the search for God. Even if that description applies to only part of the series and what seem to be Carter's own preoccupations as of 2008, it is irritating to see once again the purpose and message of this body of work re-written and redefined retroactively by its own creator. It had happened again with the purpose of the mytharc (an allegory for post-World War II American fears, now a background to Mulder & Scully's personal stories), it had happened again with Mulder-Scully relationship (a taboo in the early seasons, now the initial goal of the show). Incidentally, such profound changes put in question the integrity of XF's creators compared to much more bold statements by the creators of, for example, "The Wire" (2002-2008). There is no doubt that "XF2" was made for the fans that were most vocal since the show ended, meaning shippers; as explained above I would not mind, if the other elements of the film received a similar quality treatment -- and I would not mind if this was not endlessly repeated by Carter and especially Spotnitz as the only prism through which the X-Files can be seen. This official stamping redeems the audience share that agrees but at the cost of alienating the share that doesn't; more about this being for or against change, it is the reductive vision of making it 'all about' one thing rather than expressing various ideas in a single canvas that strikes me as a strategic mistake.
The door was left open for one last visit to the XF universe, an "XF3" that would wrap up the 2012 colonization mytharc. After a poor Box Office performance, Fox counts on the cult qualities of a franchise like the X-Files, that has a great sleeper hit potential with DVD sales, in order to greelight "XF3". In more ways than we may know, the ground was prepared for "XF3" in IWTB: casting 1013 alumni Sarah-Jane Redmond in the quasi-silent role of 'Agent Fossa', the FBI agent Whitney and Drummy answer to, surely makes her somehow significant to what will follow (is she a Supersoldier?). IWTB's obviously rushed script is quite pradoxical given the 6 years that were at the writers' disposal. It is sad to realize that this writing team could produce higher quality scripts in a shorter time and under much more stress, back when the show was on the air -- and this proof in the past is the only thing that still gives hope to "XF3".
Carter & Spotnitz argue that they not only did this "XF2" out of nostalgia for XF, but because they had something to say though it. If with IWTB the public feels that something significant is being said about the loss of focus and the coldness of modern societies, imagine what the same people would say if they were to discover "Millennium", a work far more complete and deep in that aspect!
The truth is that the defects and approximations IWTB presents would be quickly forgotten if this had been an episode of the series sandwiched between two better quality episodes -- and after all, Fight the Future as well made similar not fully thought out shortcuts in its narrative. But six years' expectations, and rightfully so for a theatrical feature film, would be satisfied by nothing less than one of the best stand-alones. In the end, this is nothing more than a run-of-the-mill stand-alone episode bettered by Mulder and Scully's personal stories. Trapped between a more indie approach in the writing of its lead characters and a much more conventional treatment in its production, IWTB is a chimera that only satisfies the immediate needs of the most nostalgic fans. With a number of successful points but with undeniable shortcomings, this "XF2" still asks from its makers to prove that they can reach the heights achieved by the first five seasons of the show and, like previous attempts to re-launch the franchise, falls short of what preceded.
Father Joe: "It's here!"
Mulder: "I can feel you thinking."
Father Joe: "So you believe in this kind of things?"
Mulder: "Let's just say I want to believe."
Scully: "What are you doing?"
Mulder: "Trying to ignore you."
Agent Drummy: "I don't believe this."
Mulder: "You know, that's been your problem from the very beginning."
Scully: "This isn't my life anymore, Mulder. I'm done chasing monsters in the dark."
Scully: "I don't think you're--"
Father Joe: "What? In any position to judge? And yet you've judged me, haven't you?"
Scully: "You deserve to be judged!"
Mulder: "And then we'll get out of here, just me and you."
Scully: "As far away from the darkness as we can get?"
Mulder: "I'm not sure it works that way. I think maybe the darkness finds you -- and me."

Abhay Deol is currently shooting for Zoya Akhtar’s Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara in Spain. He has often spoken about the great time he had shooting for Aisha also starring Sonam Kapoor. However, the star had already committed his dates to Zoya Akhtar and hence is unable to be part of the initial promotions of the Aisha that marks his return to commercial rom-com cinema.
Says a source, “Abhay is trying to wrap things for Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, so that he can make it here for Aisha’s promotions. He is very disappointed that he could not be part of the film’s promotions. But then again he had already promised Zoya his dates much in advance. He is really looking forward to the film”.
Abhay Deol known for his expertise in unconventional roles now takes on a commercial film that sees him in a novel avatar very unlike the roles he’s accustomed doing. And if sources are to be believed, Abhay who plays a pivotal role in Aisha has done a stellar job in the film and is ready to wow audiences like he has never failed to do time and again.
