Religion in Mozambique
1. Religions and their history in Mozambique
The extensive Portuguese colonial expansion was from the outset the joint work of the crown, nobility, clergy and early bourgeoisie. In the process, the Christian bringers-to-be of the colonial land seizure went to work just as brashly as their secular brothers. Mondlane criticized that in the 17th and 18th centuries Dominican missionaries and Jesuits as Prazeiros became owners of large estates, collected the head tax of the natives and operated slave trade. /1/
The starting point for this development was the rivalry with Spain in the process of great geographical discoveries, the aim of which was to eliminate competing powers. To achieve this, Portugal used the power of the Pope Church. A bull issued by Pope Nicholas V in 1454 guaranteed the Portuguese court the rights to all countries discovered so far and claimed in the future. With further edicts of 1493, 1497 and 1499 by Pope Alexander VI this was secured. Since competitor Spain pursued the same interests in the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean, a “division of the world” was agreed upon. This division of the non-European territories into a Portuguese and a Spanish sphere was confirmed by the mutual treaties of Alcáçovas (1479), Tordesillas (1494) and Zaragoza (1529). The direction of expansion thus given secured for Portugal the way to India around the Cape of Good Hope and its claims to possession of Brazil. This division lasted until the 16th century. /2/
In addition to the African west coast, which was important as a supplier of slaves to Brazil, the east coast of the continent, where Mozambique initially had the function of a supply and trade establishment on the way of the Portuguese to the Indian Goa, which was important for them, belonged to the base system created in the emerging Portuguese colonial empire, since 1559 seat of the Portuguese vice-king.
In the 16th and 17th centuries, the evangelization of Mozambique’s population began. In 1577, the Dominican Order settled on the Ilha de Moçambique under the leadership of Father Jerónimo do Conto and Pedro Ususmariz. In the following years, religious orders founded churches in Sofala, Sena and Tete. The Society of Jesus was the first religious order to make the evangelization of the indigenous people of Mozambique its goal. Its missionaries first entered the country in 1560 with the expedition led by Father Gonçalo da Silveira and began their missionary work in 1607. A group of 7 Jesuits settled on the Ilha de Moçambique in 1610. In the 17th century other religious orders appeared at times. In 1696 the presence of Augustinians can be proven. Francisco da Mota Pessoa was the first prelate for Mozambique to head the church administration in 1614. Under the Portuguese kings Pedro II. and João V. the commercial activity on the coast was expanded and the military penetration into the interior was forced. The Roman Catholic Church and the missions played an important role in consolidating the positions achieved. Setbacks in colonisation led to Mozambique’s separation from the administrative sovereignty of the Viceroy of India in 1752. The colony was headed by Governor Francisco de Melo e Castro. When José I entrusted the Marquês de Pombal (1699-1782) with the affairs of state, he tried with an iron hand to stop the decline of the Portuguese monarchy. He expelled the influential Jesuits from Portugal and Mozambique (1759), imprisoned the missionaries, reorganized the tax and customs system in favour of the state, the administration and the military. Around 1825 the ecclesiastical crisis expressed itself in the mass reduction of its institutions – churches, parishes, chapels – with only 3540 Christians including slaves. Throughout Mozambique, the Catholic clergy included 1 bishop-prelate, 5 secular priests, 5 Dominicans, 1 Carmelite and 1 Capuchin, including 3 Portuguese, 9 Indian and 1 Chinese. /3/ With the establishment of private schools in the metropolis, missionary activity in Mozambique increased again. In 1811, the Jesuits returned to the plan. In 1910 the monarchy fell in Portugal, the republic expelled the religious orders. In Mozambique 71 Catholic Portuguese missionaries worked in 25 missions. /4/ In the middle of the 30’s the number of missions grew rapidly. (s. 2.)
The education of the Africans was almost exclusively in the hands of the church. Therefore, it is necessary to consider their position and activities. While the Colonial Act declared freedom of conscience and religion, the Catholic Church contrasted this with its missionary programme. The government of the Republic of Portugal recognized the special rights and functions of the Church, which consisted in christianizing the natives and civilizing them through education. This was confirmed by the Missionary Treaty (Acordo Missionário) of 1940 and the Missionary Statute (Estatuto Missionário) of 1941, in which the government declared its support for the church’s mission programmes and at the same time restricted the scope for action of foreign, non-Catholic missionaries. Of the 7 million inhabitants, about 800,000 were Catholic, served by about 100 missions and parish churches, including the priests of various orders (Franciscans, Dominicans, Benedictines, Holy Spirit Brotherhood and Lazarists). Mondlane states that in 1959, out of 240 priests, only three were Africans. /One of the main activities of the Catholic Church was the running of schools (primary, secondary, vocational, seminaries), health stations and hospitals. Thus the Catholic Church was given responsibility for the education of Africans, although their masses were not Christians. Thus, the black man who was to be assimilated to the Portuguese had to be a Catholic. The State declared Catholic missionary activity as an integral part of Portuguese patriotism and with the identity of Christian and Portuguese qualities. The aim of the state’s educational policy was to educate a docile population that was loyal to Portugal. In reality, however, Catholics also appeared in the leading bodies of the liberation movements, such as in the Central Committee of FRELIMO (Felipe Magaia, military commander; Samora Machel, leader of the liberation army). Mondlane lamented that the elementary education of Africans by the Catholic Church remained predominantly religious, while the level of knowledge taught in Portuguese, reading, writing and arithmetic remained at a low level and history and geography were limited to Portugal. The rest of the time was spent doing handicrafts. The Vatican did little to change this situation. In 1967 Pope Paul VI visited Portugal and gave the government 4.4 million escudos for “overseas use”. The Roman Catholic Church opposed the Mozambican liberation movement. Alvim Pereira, bishop of Lourenço Marques, formulated that the demand “Africa to Africans” was a “monstrous philosophy and a challenge to Christian civilization”, “because communism and Islam want to impose their civilization on Africans”. /6/
On Islam in Mozambique
His beginnings in Mozambique were in the 9th century, when he made his way south along the East African coast via trade networks and connected himself with the Shirazi (Xirazi), from Persia immigrated rulers embodying religion and political leadership in unity. Especially from Zanzibar, Mogadishu and Pemba the trade was intensified in the following centuries. Arabs from Oman ruled it as far as Sofala and developed the Swahili culture with Islamic centres (sultanates, sheikdoms). In the profitable slave trade of the 19th century, the Islamic ruling clans secured access to the trading centres inland through wars and alliances and spread Islam in the hinterland through “a network of leading chiefs and subservient Muslim slave robbers”. /The constant rivalry with the Portuguese intensified when in 1897 and 1905 two Sufi orders (Sufi or Dervish: followers of Sufism), the Shadhuliyya Yashrutiyya and the Qadirriya, settled in the Portuguese administrative centre on the Ilha de Moçambique. Muslims from India had settled on the mainland and lost their protection to the Portuguese administration when it left the island in 1896 and moved south to Lourenço Marques. Under Ahmad al-Ngaziji, the Qadirriyya moved to the mainland and took over the leadership of the Afro-Indians. /8/ This contributed to the spread of Sufism, commonly known as Islamic mysticism, as a mass movement carried by the will of the followers to come close to God. They see mysticism as a part that cannot be separated from Islam. Competition between both Sufi orders caused their splitting into several turuq, which in Sufism tread different paths of the mystics on their migration to God. Until the end of the colonial period Islam remained mainly in the north of Mozambique, but the leadership was passed on in the sense of the matrilineal tradition. Muslim leadership clans supported the anti-colonial liberation movement. When, after Mozambique’s independence, Frelimo declared itself to be an avant-garde party based on Marxism-Leninism in 1977, hostility to religion as a state doctrine deprived the Islamic leaders of the North of their power base. In 1978, a Wahhabi group led by Abubacar Ismael “Mangira” in Maputo opposed the resulting weakening of Islam and created the conditions for a future national mass organization that denied its rivals in the North its claim to leadership. As Wahhabis they represented a dogmatic variant of Sunni Islam. The Koran is regarded as the word of God. The followers of Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab’s interpretation of the original doctrine of Islam as an important authority, claim to proclaim it authentically and reject Sufism, seek spiritual security. In 1981 the government accepted the Islamic Council of Mozambique (Conselho Islámico de Moçambique) and its secretary Abubacar Ismael “Mangira”. Since the North Mozambican and other non-Wahhabites did not see themselves represented by this national organization, they founded their own representation in 1983, the Islamic Congress of Mozambique (Congresso Islámico de Moçambique), which also includes the Sufi Order.
After the end of the civil war and the signing of the peace treaty in 1992, Frelimo recognized the importance of traditional structures, offices and personalities (leaders, healers, chieftains, …) above all in their role in the election campaign, summarized them under the term “traditional authorities” and put them under the protection of the state with a constitutional amendment in 1996. However, the authority of the leaders in the North today is largely based on their traditional, inherited relationship through kinship as claims acquired by Islam.
For Mozambique as a multi-religious country, traditional values and religious practices are cultivated for the majority of the population and also maintained in connection with the Christian and Islamic faith and cultivated in mixed and parallel forms of spiritual practice. This applies especially to the widespread ancestor worship, which sees the deceased as mediators between the living and the natural powers and has produced corresponding rituals and cults, as well as other aspects of the primary religions (natural religions, animatism, animism). In the church of Mozambique this can be read during the services in the trinity singing – dancing – prayer. Sometimes they are formed by means of magic and belief in spirits and lead individuals to trance states.
Rituals of the traditional religions are not always bound to the church as place of practice, but are carried out on concrete occasions (bad harvest, death, illness) in a given place. Their aim is above all to seek help in this world, while Christian rituals are strongly directed towards the hereafter. /Fetiçeiros (magicians) and Curandeiros (traditional healers) united in 1990 in an umbrella organization and enjoy state support. Since 1990 there has been freedom of religion again. The Protestant church, which was less closely linked to the colonial power in colonial times, has retained a relatively independent position from the state. It plays an important role in the social reconciliation process after the end of the civil war and in AIDS prevention, and with the Christian Council of Mozambique (Conselho Cristão de Moçambique, CCM) it has created a leadership body to which 22 Protestant churches and 2 church organizations belong. The traditional religion with its natural, ancestral and unpredictable spirits is seen today above all as an expression of the longing for security in the community. /10/
2. Organisations
In Mozambique, about 8 million people (out of a population of about 20 million) profess one of the recognized religions as believers. 24% of them belong to the Roman Catholic Church of Mozambique, which is part of the Roman Catholic World Church and is headed by the Pope and the Curia in Rome. It is mainly concentrated in the central provinces. 22% are Protestants (mainly southern provinces). Christians are covered by 12 dioceses, including 3 archdioceses. 20% are Muslims (coastal zone and northern provinces). There is a Hindu minority of about 0.2%.

closing words. No one is immune to intense emotions--and whether we accept them and how we regulate them can mean the difference between mental health or illness. The critical role of these complex emotional skills in human well-being is at the core of Affect Regulation Training (ART), which is gaining ground as both a preventive method and an adjunct to other therapies. Affect Regulation Training combines a step-by-step manual for conducting ART with patients with an extensive review of how and why the method works. Introductory chapters analyze the relationship between deficits in emotion regulation and mental dysfunction, explain the theory behind the ART model, and offer practical ideas for optimizing treatment. The manual identifies component skills of ART such as nonjudgmental awareness and compassionate self-support, pinpoints situations in which the skills are beneficial, and provides exercises employing them individually and in combination. An evaluation section features empirical findings and feedback from therapists and clients. Included in the coverage: Emotion regulation: definition and relevance for mental health. Guidelines for effective delivery of ART. Linking ART skills to build successful interventions. Creating goals that result in effective self-management. Recommended education and training for therapists. PLUS a complete ART manual with target skills, delivery modules, and recommended intervention sequences. The richness and flexibility of the ART program makes Affect Regulation Training an important addition to the toolkits of psychologists, psychiatrists, marriage and family therapists, and clinical counselors and social workers, as well as practitioners and administrators in fields such as substance abuse, public mental health, education, medicine, military health, and the justice system.

Also, there is no standard way of categorizing the files, making it difficult for other personnel to find the data. An E-mail will have narrow criteria to search for the files while the filing and local drive option is cumbersome. It will take a lot of time to find the contracts.
3. Risk of Losing the Data
The manual contract management methods are prone to damage and loss of data. It will be easy to lose the records if the business does not use a secure and platform.

Capital punishment and juveniles essays
It is true that there is disproportionality when it comes to the races and classes that most frequently receive the death penalty. There are many reasons as to why I believe the death penalty should be legalized in all states, including deterrence, retribution, and morality; and because opposing arguments do not hold up, I will refute the ideas that the death penalty is unconstitutional, irrevocable mistakes are made, and that there is a disproportionality of race and income level.
Karp, Boarding Schools is an effective way of reforming juveniles. Another type of tough love punishment is military style boot camps. It has also been proven that minorities are disproportionately poor, and therefore they would also be more likely to receive the death penalty.
There are many different ways of enforcing alternative punishment among juveniles.
Alternative Punishment for Juveniles
Workforce development programs prove to be highly effective in lowering the rate of repeat offenses. Some may argue that there is not enough concrete evidence to use deterrence as an argument for the death penalty.
The largest percentage of readers are between the ages of 35 and 44, and the majority of readers have either a college degree or a graduate degree. And surely the death penalty is the only penalty that could deter prisoners already serving a life sentence and tempted to kill a guard, or offenders about to be arrested and facing a life sentence.
The Case for Justice. It is imperative that we begin to pass legislation making capital punishment legal throughout the United States so that justice can be served properly.

The Supreme Court has not found capital punishment to be unconstitutional, and therefore this argument for abolition is invalid.
Although the issue of morality is very personal for many people, it is important to see the facts and realize that capital punishment does take morality into account and therefore is carried out in the best way possible. Although they have fallen dramatically since that time, public fear of juvenile homicide remains very high.

Due process in these cases takes much longer so that the court can be absolutely sure that the person is guilty before sentencing him to execution. These include, but are not limited to, hunter safety classes, babysitting, and victim impact situation; such as an ambulance ride along, get a life program, and a jail tour.
Those opposed to the death penalty say that it is immoral for the government to take the life of a citizen under any circumstance. Retribution also serves justice for murder victims and their families. In the case of Thompson v. Another case in the juvenile death penalty cases is Atkins v.
Many opponents of capital punishment say that execution is cruel and unusual punishment and therefore violates the Constitution. A lighter form of alternative punishment that is most common is community service Donegan, The death penalty also carries out retribution justly.

One in nine women marry their blood relatives in India, according to recently-published data from the National Family Health Survey-5 (NFHS-5). The trend suggests that underage girls and teenage women are more likely to marry a blood relative than women who are older. The survey also reveals that marriage among first cousins is the most common of nuptial ties among blood-related couples.
This may, however, be an indication that such marriages are being arranged by the parents of the women. As the age-group of women scales up, the instances of marrying blood relatives decreases almost consistently from the 15-19 to the 45-49 years' age group.

Independence Day: Resurgence: The Gizmodo Review
After 20 years in the doldrums, Independence Day is back. The aliens from the first flick are back, too, and they're even angrier than before. But there's something about Independence Day: Resurgence that just feels a little bit off. Gizmodo editor Campbell Simpson and sub-editor Amanda Yeo talk what went right, and what went wrong.
All images: 20th Century Fox
CS: I walked into Independence Day: Resurgence not even having seen the trailer. I have incredibly fond memories of the original Independence Day from 20 years ago, and all I knew about the sequel was what I'd seen from the poster: the aliens are coming back, and they have a bigger ship. That's really all that you need to know, to be fair, because Resurgence doesn't really have the most cerebral plot. It's kinda like Warcraft in space, if you asked me to describe it in a couple of words.
There's absolutely no doubt that the movie rides on the coattails of the original. Hell, one of the highlights of the first half of the film is in the first few seconds, where you see an oil painting of Will Smith's character from the original. (I guess an oil painting is a lot cheaper than the actual actor.) The plot, too, is pretty much the same, and I don't think I'm spoiling it too much to say that when aliens show up and take Earth unawares, the collective will and strength and chutzpah of humanity comes together in a glorious triumph of two and a half hours of CGI explosions.
When the original came out, I was eight years old, and probably the perfect demographic. Now I'm 28, and I felt like I was the only one in the cinema laughing at what I thought was -- for the most part -- a pretty ridiculous movie. It's a blockbuster about humans versus aliens, but unlike the original this one is set in the future, where deciphering the secrets of crashed alien ships has given Earth (a very US-centric, Hollywoodified Earth) gravity-defying helicopters, gravity-defying space fighter jets, a base on the moon, and the collective resolve to work together as a planet and achieve world peace.
What Independence Day: Resurgence's humanity didn't seem to get from its 20-year-old victory over the aliens was any extra common sense. In the movie's opening, the first point that we as an audience find out that something is up is literally one character saying to another "Hey, Saturn is gone, it's not there any more", and then just looking a bit confused and concerned and staring at some screens. That's kind of the movie in a nutshell, for me -- unreasonably unaware humans struggling to find a single common-sense solution to the straightforward problem of alien annihilation.
But that didn't make it any less fun to watch. What did you think?
AY: I had fun, but I have to agree – you weren’t the only one laughing.
I loved Independence Day the First. (Independence Day: Surgence?) I was a little too young for it when it first came out, but I was enraptured by the scale and action when it ran on free-to-air. Having rewatched it in preparation for Resurgence, it holds up quite well. Of course there’s the common complaint about the reality of writing a virus for an alien system, but the rest of the plot still feels grounded.
Unfortunately, Resurgence took that one deviation from reality and magnified it.
In the 20 years since the events of the first film (referred to in-universe as the War of 1996), humanity has stripped the leftover alien technology and used it to boost our own innovations. Unfortunately, humanity also stripped itself of its humanity. There is nothing relatable in the society that has emerged – everything is shiny, mechanised and militarised. The charm of the first film was that it established ordinary, everyday, low-tech 1990’s life – politicians worrying about how they’re polling, people sleeping in on their holiday, harried office workers trying to fix system errors – and dropped aliens on it. Humans prevailed with nothing but real-world tech and a will to survive.
In contrast, the high-tech sci-fi world of Resurgence is one that I could no longer recognise. You’d have a better time if you thought of the film as a completely new universe. It was less about human will, and more about alien tech. And, as you pointed out, the characters often behaved in a manner slightly removed from common sense, so that they no longer seemed like real people but rather flesh puppets there to enact plot points. It was just so hard to care. (I just had a revelation. Maybe the humans were the aliens all along!)
Even things that should have sparked some familiarity and nostalgia left me cold. None of the returning actors were brought back in a way that felt satisfying, and I found myself disliking characters that I’d formerly loved. It really felt like they were included more as a ‘where are they now’ than due to them having any significant impact upon the plot. In addition, several of the new characters had such a small impact on the overall plot that they could have been condensed into two or three roles. There were too many characters, and clichés in substitute for development. (Though the pilots can be straight up matched person to person with the original Power Rangers, which amused me.) Also, considering the supposed unity of the world and all that jazz, I’m a bit put out that Liam Hemsworth couldn’t have at least kept his Australian accent.
The film leaned very heavily on clichés overall, and it just felt lazy. Moments that were clearly meant to be ‘epic’ had me giggling at how forced and ridiculous they were (at one point so ridiculous that it reminded me of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy). Resurgence was constantly aiming for and missing the first film’s sweeping scale – none of the emotional beats landed, and the film’s effort to recreate the “this is our Independence Day” moment was just sad. It felt like a baby waving its fist in the air compared to a solid punch from a 20-year-old man.
That being said, I also had fun. It’s always entertaining to watch things shoot and blow up other things, and there was even one scene near the beginning that topped the first film in terms of destruction and spectacle. But the film never built upon it and I was left dissatisfied.
What did you think of the high-tech, highly-improbable world at peace (because as we all know, the only thing preventing world peace is the stubborn refusal of aliens to show up)? And what about the new characters?
CS: I honestly thought that the high tech world -- because the film had to be set in a world where alien technology had been around for 20 years, and the 2016 we're living in at the moment would be even more fanciful than the one in the movie -- had a lot of potential. Probably my favourite serious point within the movie was seeing the alien ship hovering over the African plain; that felt very District 9 and I enjoyed it more by association.
The characters, honestly, bar Jeff Goldblum and Jeff Goldblum Sr, were forgettable. There wasn't any one Will Smith that stole the show and that made you root for humanity in the movie; I enjoyed seeing his painting more than I did most of the main cast. Which is a pity, because I'd say that that's the area where a bit of tweaking could have made the movie more human and more enjoyable. Hell, they should have thrown in a Power Rangers reference like you said and just rolled with it.
I think we're in agreeance here. Independence Day: Resurgence is a fun film, because stuff blows up, and a funny film, because it's just a bit ridiculous, but it's not a good film. It's the kind of movie that, were we back in 1996, I'd happily rent from the Video Ezy down the road as part of a '7 weekly VHS for $7' pack, but that I wouldn't pay for it on its own. It's visually impressive, but it lacks a bit of heart underneath the surface.

1. Ironically I would grade their draft worse if they had just taken Smith. That Bears pick is going to be in the teens IMO and given what happened with the Eagles, they would have had to trade up to get Smith. I'm never going to be behind trading up to get a WR in the first round and think the deal they got to move back was an absolute steal, especially cause they still got a good WR. Also based on how Goldfish is doing his ratings, Giants were perfect in terms of drafting at need but also high quality players for the round they were taken in
2. Ew. You know those conversations in this thread about 2nd tier prospects...this is exactly that. Hurts hasn't shown anything yet to make me believe he's the answer to a franchise. Watson though, that could be very interesting right now with the Rodgers stuff going on with us. Idk though...part of me just feels Watson is going to be trouble no matter where he goes now. These allegations indicate a habit and habits don't change easily. Certainly doesn't fit with what the Broncos have been building with "high character" guys
3. I mean that's the thing right? Even if we had to give up some sort of ridiculous haul like a bunch of 1st + 2 good young players and Drew or Teddy (4-6 first rounder equivalents), we likely still come out well on that deal. Again, I'm not necessarily saying we should take something like that, but damn...Rodgers simply is a game changer. I know some are down on him for not having even more superbowl wins in the league, but he's been to so many NFC championship games, that's got to count for something. I'd kill to have that for us right now
4. Yup totally agree which is why ownership is so important to me. If we do the same old thing we have been doing and getting these 2nd tier prospects to "peak" interest in fans, it's going to just piss me off. However, if we go for an Elon Musk type rocket into space and end up in a spectacular fireball...I'm ok with that. At least we tried to get the franchise back to a place where we are respected/feared.
5. It would be exciting and disappointing at the same time for me. At this point, how many times have we seen the Broncos try different directions? It's frustrating to just see that start all over again. The intriguing bit for me will be the ownership situation and what that looks like. If we get an enthusiastic guy or girl who is devoted to a particular vision, I can easily get excited for that. If it's someone like the ownership of the Rockies, no thanks. I think Paton has done a masterful job at making himself look like a great piece to do whatever the new owner has in mind.
6. I'm curious your perspective on the prospect Belichick made this Mac selection in part because of his familiarity with a not-super-athletic QB who has shown great ability for accuracy and brainpower. I mean in a lot of ways, I see much more similarities between Mac and Brady than Fields and Brady (DEFINITELY NOT saying Mac will be even a quarter of the player brady is). It really only came to mind when you talked about familiarity for Beli
7. Let's all be honest here...if the LIONS cut you, it's not a good sign. I will say I'm hoping this works out well for the Eagles cause I miss em competing in the playoffs (and having random major injuries occur due to the curse).
8. Omg wtf was Tebow doing? He's JACKED...wasn't he training for baseball? How did this happen? I'd be lying if I didn't want a little Tebowmania to happen again. I wouldn't be surprised if this time it was in the form of a buttfumble though!
9. LOL wtf. Ya no way Rodgers would fetch all that
10. Literally what I said... Not sure where you're coming from on this
11. How exactly could you consider Gretzky the GOAT of all sports? He was basically the Wilt Chamberlain of the NHL. If we are talking about the greatest winner in all of major sports (not Olympics), that's Bill Russell. 11/13 championship seasons (1 being player/coach btw). No one even comes close to that. Once you start including other factors, eh ok. It's not like I'm gonna argue someone if they have Jordan or Brady #1...there's an argument to be had for them. I'm just saying it's not clear cut and depends on criteria. I personally would put Brady ahead of Jordan and Russell above both of them,
12. I'm just so happy to be done with the James situation. I know everyone always, me included, gave Bolles a hard time for his repeated mistakes, but at least he was on the field. I won't pretend to know James' intentions with sitting out for various reasons, but I know it would have been rough on the locker room to come back this season. I don't think it's a coincidence a bunch of the Denver reporters have all said the offensive line would need some winning over by him...and rightfully so. By all reports, he has not been a good teammate.
13. Well why not pick him up then? Clearly if he did the same thing for only one season, he would be worth more than 17 million to the Broncos 😄
14. Imo, yes you would be crazy to think that. Unless Herbert is really messed up coming back from that injury, the Chargers had a great draft with a bunch of protection for him. Also, we have still been unable to beat the chiefs in YEARS and they got mahomes some good pieces this off-season too. Even if Drew makes the jump to Carr levels, I don't think we can win the division if we're not even clearly second best
15. Also worth noting this does seem like a very Fangio move in that it gives Vic the best chance to show what he can do with a defense (assuming we also pick up a LB and maybe a RB). I don't think Vic was very keen on a rookie QB coming in and most likely failing in Shurmer's schemes again. It also falls in line with Elway's former mentality of drafting high character guys who have a history of leading. Again, I do think that's a great thing...it just leads to you being on a hamster wheel of talent until you get a QB
16. Still can't wrap my head around the surtain pick... Lets just say he and all the other picks we've made in the past 3 years grade out to an A... Like literally hit on all of em. We still can't choose to keep em all cause of cap issues so we end up starting the same process again. I just don't understand if you KNOW you have a qb room that can't maximize talent you're just setting the clock later. I see best case scenario this year being that Bears team from a couple years back that had an amazing defense and finished with a great record but was out in the first round and stuck in mediocri
17. This does also make me wonder... Are fields' seizures worse than reported? I don't get how he's dropping this far
18. I mean actually how do you not pick a qb here? Defense literally won't do anything because they will be on the field the whole game
19. Wow.... Shoot me now... Might be switching to the dolphins... Screw this
20. Also guarantee we on the phone w green bay right now since fields dropped.... We have a sweet pot
21. WTF horn?! Hahahahahahababababababav omg don't screw us patton
22. Especially because realistically, what position does this team exactly need a massive upgrade on this year? I get if the Broncos want to amass talent for the future, at a Tackle for instance because James never plays or at S or CB after these 1 year deals are done, but as you're saying, how does getting another dude in those slots translate to 4 or 5 more wins we need to make the playoffs? I just don't see it unless the QB situation is resolved.
23. Welp...everything has completely changed now. Trade back Paton!
24. I wouldn't. All it takes is a potential bust or injury for those late first rounders turn into top10 picks
25. Wow wtf...#12, 2 future 1st rounders and a 3rd. That's insane for a completely unproven talent. People were talking about that as the base rate for Watson pre-scandal. Wtf 49ers

How the C of E faced a world war
07 November 2014
by Alan Wilkinson
British soldiers near the river Somme, winter 1916
British soldiers near the river Somme, winter 1916
THE Church of England inherited traditional attitudes to war which had been revived during the Boer War (1899-1902); so it was widely proclaimed that war arouses patriotism, awakens the nation from selfishness, reminds people of the precarious nature of life, and makes people want to pray. Of the main Christian groups, only the Quakers maintained a corporate pacifism, although in fact 33 per cent of Quakers of military age enlisted.
Many neutralists (who included the Bishops of Lincoln and Hereford) changed their minds when Germany invaded Belgium. Preachers compared that to Ahab's seizing of Naboth's vineyard (1 Kings 21).
The Archbishops of Canterbury and York (Randall Davidson and Cosmo Lang), Bishop Charles Gore of Oxford, the theologian Henry Scott Holland, and George Bell (Davidson's chaplain, and later the prophetic Bishop of Chichester) were among those Anglicans who refused to be swept along by intense nationalism.
The normally cautious Davidson was prepared to be unpopular by publicly rejecting reprisals, the use of poison gas, and hatred of Germans. On the eve of the Armistice, he reminded the nation that, when they prayed the Our Father, barriers crumbled: others prayed "Pater Noster", "Notre Père," "Yes, and 'Unser Vater.'"
Davidson, in the Lords, defended the rights of conscientious objectors, and corresponded tirelessly about individual cases of hardship. Several leading Anglican figures supported this stance.
Others echoed the bellicosity of Arthur Winnington-Ingram, Bishop of London, who said, in Westminster Abbey, that the nation was "banded together in a great crusade . . . to kill Germans".`
Clergy actively helped the war effort by working part-time as special constables, car mechanics, and even in armaments firms. They also ministered to the many bereaved at home. But they were strongly discouraged from becoming combatants.
More than 1000 clerics became chaplains in the armed forces, and 111 of them were killed, or died as a result of the war. Whereas chaplains of other churches ministered to their own adherents, Anglican chaplains were expected to minister to everyone. Some 70 per cent of soldiers registered themselves as "C of E".
In crises, sacramental and ritual religion is more effective than the plain word alone. But most who were "C of E" had been brought up in Sunday school, not church, and so were not communicants. In any case, it was widely believed that "communion is for the gentry," which, in the army, meant officers, not men.
In 1914, prayers for the dead were uncommon, and particularly repugnant to Evangelicals. By the end of the war, they were widely used. On All Souls' Day (which began to be observed more widely) in November 1914, Davidson spoke tenderly of praying for the dead as "natural and helpful".
The war challenged faith, and powerfully accelerated pluralism, secularity, and a belief in modernity. Yet the faith of some survivors was strengthened so much that they offered themselves for ordination.
Many people were fortified through believing that the deaths of soldiers were united with the sacrifice of Christ. The popular picture The Great Sacrifice depicted a dead soldier with his hand on the feet of the crucified Jesus.
The pressure to give women a new part to play in Church and State was increased by their contribution to the war effort. The Church, like the nation, believed that this war was a war to end war, and supported the League of Nations and peace-making between Churches through ecumenism.
Remembrance rituals combined the traditional and modern. The two minutes' silence was communal, but could be used by individuals differently. The addition of the reveille to the "Last Post" could signify resurrection.
Sir Edward de Stein, a soldier-poet, framed the paradoxical question that survivors asked after the Armistice: "How shall I say goodbye to you, wonderful, terrible days . . . ?

Narcissistic Father-Running Off with Daughter's Girlfriend
Posted Oct 02 2012 1:35pm
Narcissists have no limits--moral, ethical, legal---They are indecent human beings on many levels. If you have a narcissistic parent you know how outrageous they will be. They have no shame. I have known of a number of instances in which the narcissist's daughter had a close friend who was like part of the family. The young adult daughter of the narcissist was shocked to find out that her father was making passes at her best friend. She kept telling herself this couldn't be happening. She idealized her father and thought of her mother as weak, an appendage of her father. She was unable to stand up for herself. When college time came father and mother divorced. Dad soon began dating, often seeing a couple of women in one evening. Alice (let's call her) was shocked by her dad's behavior. He was acting like a teenager. In walks Alice's childhood friend, Gina for a college break. Alice feels the sparks fly and the chemistry stir between this man she calls dad and her best friend. Alice notices that Gina is becoming secretive with her. On a particular evening she discovers her father upstairs with her friend Gina in a compromising scene in the master bedroom. Alice is stunned. She can't believe it. Her father announces that he and Gina love one another, have for some time and are planning to get married in the very near future. That is exactly what happens. Alice can barely tolerate getting through the ceremonies. She is humiliated and feels deeply betrayed. She has lost her father and best friend. This man she has known as an absentee workaholic dad is the husband of a young woman who is thirty years younger than his daughter. To make matters more painful, Gina was pregnant before the wedding and will soon deliver a half brother or sister to Alice. She is devastated. Alice gets a lot of benefit from excellent psychotherapy. She recognizes that her father is a narcissist who was never capable of loving anyone, who doesn't have any psychological boundaries, who goes after what he wants, no matter whom it hurts, including his own daughter.
Alice severs her non-relationship with this man she called dad and her previous friend and current wife.
Working very hard with skilled psychotherapy and the support of close friends, Alice heals, moves through her grief of never having a real dad and is able to put her own life together. This takes time, patience and courage. She renews her relationship with her mother and forgives her for not being strong enough to stand up for herself. Alice is renewing her life on her own terms.

1. BONNIE AND CLYDE (Arthur Penn; 1967) 4 stars
One of the key American movies of the '60s: producer-star Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, Gene Hackman, Estelle Parsons and Michael J. Pollard are a glamorized version of the Bonnie Parker-Clyde Barrow Gang, a naive but murderous bunch whose reckless Depression criminal career turns into a romantic, terrifying odyssey of blood, fame and reckoning. It's a movie whose perfectly controlled mix of violence, romance, laughs, period detail and social comment caught the mood and spirit of the Vietnam War era. (on DVD and video)
2. THE FRENCH CONNECTION (William Friedkin; 1971) 4 stars
The most violently kinetic cops-and-robbers thriller of its day, based on the real-life Marseilles heroin connection investigation by New York cops Sonny Grosso and Eddie Egan -- re-created by Roy Scheider as Buddy Russo and Oscar-winner Hackman as Jimmy "Popeye" Doyle. (DVD/video)
3. SCARECROW (Jerry Schatzberg; 1973) 4 stars
A lyrical yet wounding movie about two outsiders (ex-con Max, played by Hackman, and misfit Lion, Al Pacino) who hook up while hitchhiking from California to Pittsburgh and undergo trials and tragedy. Schatzberg's moody portrayal of these two mismatched, luckless drifters is graced with brilliant performances by Hackman and Pacino. (DVD/video)
4. THE CONVERSATION (Francis Coppola; 1974) 4 stars
Coppola's mesmerizing Cannes Grand Prize winner about surveillance expert Harry Caul (Hackman) who's been hired for a mysterious bugging job and comes to suspect he's being pulled into something far more dangerous and sinister. Harry pieces together damning bits of taped conversation, whose meanings change the more he listens. (DVD/video)
5. UNFORGIVEN (Clint Eastwood; 1992) (4 stars
Director-star Eastwood's hard-bitten, melancholy revision of the Western myth got him the best reviews of his career (and Oscars for "Best Picture" and "Best Director"). It's a tough look at an aging gunslinger's last battle -- with Eastwood as the old top gun, Morgan Freeman as his sidekick-buddy, and Hackman as a sadistic sheriff. The cast is brilliant, especially Hackman. (DVD/video)
Michael Wilmington is the Chicago Tribune movie critic.

Real Estate Investing – Earn Money Without Working For It
There seem to be two types of people in the world?office slaves who very nearly treat work as a religion and who are in danger of neglecting the very families for whom they work so hard to provide; and people who have adopted more of a slacker mentality, convincing themselves that money isn’t important because they don’t want to be slaves to the workaday world.
Robert Kiyosaki, author of the Rich Dad book series, has money and he doesn’t agree. ?Anyone who says money isn’t important obviously has not been without it long,? he says in his book ?Cash Flow Quadrant.?
He knows because he has been in both situations. For several weeks in 1985, he and his wife were so destitute, they were actually forced to live in their car, after which they moved into a friend’s basement for nearly a year. They took only odd jobs, because wealth, not job security, was what they were after.
Four years later, they were millionaires.
While money is important, it isn’t important in and of itself, and that is why Kiyosaki and his wife didn’t rush out to look for the ?good? jobs they both could have gotten. It’s important because it provides for your basic needs and, if you have enough of it, it can give you time to be with your loved ones and do the things in life that truly make you happy.
One thing a job will never give you is extra time with loved ones. In fact, it will take away as much of that precious time as you allow it to.
Everyone sees the Catch 22, worrying that if they spend the time working to make enough money to do the things they want to do, they won’t have time to do those things. That is true. Working is not the answer. Making your money work, preferably in a solid investment like real estate, is the answer.
Kiyosaki seen been at that crossroads himself. ?Money is important, but I did not want to spend my life working for it,? he says in his Rich Dad series. Luckily he had the benefit of that rich dad’s knowledge of how the financial world works to see him through.
He knew that there was a way to be a responsible provider for his family without spending most of his waking life working. He knew the secret was become an investor.
When you become an investor, you are simply getting your money from a different place. What you want to do is take the money you get from your job, and put it into the I quadrant. That means that you now have money working for you. Your money is making money and you didn’t have to lift a finger for those extra dollars.
That is how you can have your cake and eat it too?because the money you make no longer represents hours of your life spent away in pursuit of a living, you can take those hours and reinvest them in spending actual time with your family, in pursuing hobbies, hanging out with friends. In short, you can reinvest them in your life.

Jennifer Hudson Family Murder Trial: Guilty on All Counts
WATCH Hudson Family Murder Verdict: Guilty
Balfour appeared to sit expressionless.
More Than 80 Witnesses Over Three Weeks
The trial began on April 23 in Chicago. Prosecutors called more than 80 witnesses over two weeks, and the defense rested its case after 30 minutes, calling only two witnesses to the stand. Balfour did not testify.
Prosecutors alleged that Balfour fatally shot Hudson's mother, Darnell Donerson, 57, in her living room, and then shot Hudson's brother Jason Hudson, 29, as he lay in bed. He then kidnapped Hudson's nephew Julian King, who was 7. Investigators believe the boy was shot in the head as he lay behind the front seat of an SUV.
Prosecuting State Attorney Veryl Gambino said Balfour was in a state of rage over Julia Hudson's dating another man, and said Balfour had issued several threats against her and her family. Balfour allegedly was enraged on Oct. 24, 2008, after he saw balloons another man sent to Julia Hudson and punched them.
Julia Hudson found her mother's body in her home and initially thought she had fallen. It wasn't until she saw blood that she realized something worse had taken place. Julia Hudson ran screaming from the house and called 911.
The killings happened in the family home in Chicago's tough Englewood neighborhood, where Jennifer Hudson grew up.
In Assistant State Attorney Jennifer Bagby's closing arguments, she said that Balfour "was fueled by his obsession, his jealousy, his determination to catch his wife, Julia Hudson, with another man. She didn't want him around, her family didn't want him around. But in his mind, she was his wife, and if he couldn't have her, no one could."
Bagby punctuated her narrative by frequently quoting Balfour's allegedly repeated threat to his estranged wife: "If you leave me, I will kill you. I will kill your family first. You will be the last to die."
While the defense argued no physical evidence linked Balfour to the murders, prosecutors spent significant portions of their closing arguments focusing on what they said was important physical evidence in this case.
The evidence included cellphone records that put Balfour near the scene at the time of murders, gun residue found on Balfour's clothing and on the steering wheel of his car, and the key to Jason Hudson's SUV found on Balfour when he was arrested.
Prosecutors spoke about the "overwhelming circumstantial evidence."
Balfour's attorneys say there is no evidence or DNA linking him to the murders.
Thompson said in her closing arguments that police "weren't trying to figure this out. They had their man. They spread it across the news. They were just trying to prove it by building a case any way they could."
Thompson emphasized that Balfour's fingerprints were not found on the gun or the car where Julian was killed.
"The one constant in this case is that every piece of DNA evidence absolutely excludes William Balfour," Thompson said. "The one person in all of Chicago who didn't do it is him. That's what the evidence showed."
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Today in 1791
…Congress ratified these.
When certain people are speaking and acting these days, it’s hard to remember we still have them.
We do.
2 Responses to “Today in 1791”
1. Syd B. says:
Jefferson’s conception of liberty embraced the freedom of choice and movement he deemed every peaceable individual to possess. An American’s self-ownership, in Jefferson’s view, was absolute; he could therefore do whatever he pleased, subject only to the constraint that he not interfere in others’ equal right to do likewise, and the State could do nothing to hinder him. Nor could the State force him to labor for its sake, which would constitute the most direct imaginable “tax” on his unalienable rights to himself and his freedom of choice.
What the f%@k happened to that idea?
2. JeffS says:
Amen, Sister. Amen.

Sex and the Modern Soldier
Just how bad is the military's woman problem?
As I write this, the Petraeus saga, which morphed first into the Petraeus-Broadwell saga, and then into the Petraeus-Broadwell-Kelley saga, followed closely by the Petraeus-Broadwell-Kelley-Allen saga, is morphing into Phase 5, or maybe it's Phase 6. Who can keep track? By now, I believe, it's the Petraeus-Broadwell-Kelley-Allen-Evil Twin Natalie-Shirtless FBI Agent-Eric Cantor-Classified Documents story.
By the time you read this, the saga will have morphed into Phase 11 or 12, and it will no doubt have been revealed that Anthony Weiner was Jill Kelley's college roommate before a series of harassing phone calls from a Lockheed Martin executive led him to take up residence instead in one of those fancy hotel rooms favored by disgraced Gen. Kip Ward. Prince Harry and the Waffle House guy will probably also turn out to be involved.
But let's put schadenfreude briefly aside -- who can possibly keep up with these high-society types, anyway? -- and focus instead on the important question my mother asked me today, in a breathless early-morning call: What is up with these generals?
More specifically: Does the U.S. military have an adultery problem? A woman problem? A generic, all-purpose craziness, sleaze, and corruption problem? A public-image problem?
Answering these questions in order, I can offer a definitive "sort of," "kind of, "maybe," and "very possibly."
First, adultery and related peccadilloes.
Officially, military culture tends to smile upon marriage and frown upon singleness. The military provides married personnel with benefits not available to single personnel, and even today, officers often feel that remaining unmarried is regarded as professionally suspect (not just because it may raise suspicions of homosexuality -- for senior male officers in particular, a wife has historically been considered a must-have accessory, needed in her hostess role as much as in her role as companion). But ironically, the military's very "pro-marriage" culture may lead to a higher incidence of divorce and marital problems.
A recent Rand Corp. study found that compared with demographically matched civilians, military personnel are more likely to get married -- but after leaving the military, veterans are more likely than non-veterans to get divorced. "[T]hese findings," the study concluded, "suggest that the military provides incentives to marry … but that once the servicemembers return to civilian life and these incentives are absent, they suffer higher rates of marital dissolution than comparable civilians. This suggests that the military may encourage unions that would not normally be formalized into marriage in a civilian context, and are consequently more fragile upon exit from the military."
If some service members marry because it's expected or rewarded rather than because they've found a compatible partner, those marriages are presumably more fragile before exit from the military as well as after. There's no way to know for sure whether infidelity is more common in the military than in the civilian world, of course. Needless to say, adultery is one of those things people generally -- no pun intended -- lie about. But even if we leave aside the question of military marriages that should probably never have been entered into, it seems reasonable to suppose that adultery might be more common in the military than in the civilian world.
Military careers can place great strain on marriages. Military families are frequently uprooted, and deployments can separate spouses by thousands of miles, year after year. Consider David and Holly Petraeus, who reportedly moved 23 times over the course of their marriage and were frequently separated by lengthy training periods and deployments. That would test any marriage.

Help us by suggesting a value. Summary Prices Specs. Easy to overclock. Scroll down for more information. That are the most used reviews? Inexpensive choices 1. General info 1. Overclocking one’s body is usually quite an elaborate process, but some producers offer a button or a course where one simply click will automatically overclock your computer, giving you increased performance.
This particular aspect lets you charge your products such as for example smartphones and tablets faster than a consistent USB interface. Some implementations also enable you to charge via the USB slot even though the pc is within rest mode or off. Using one or more GPU in parallel can give increased performance. This could permit faster information prices over USB, such as when transferring files to an external hard disk. It offers higher transfer rates, enhanced dependability, and improved energy consumption.
It offers advantages of video gaming and HD movie streaming. Bluetooth is a radio technology which allows you to effortlessly move information between various devices, such as for instance smartphones, pills and computer systems.
Central Processing Unit sockets 1. The motherboard has more CPU sockets. Numerous CPUs are usually found in machines. Memory 1. RAM speed MHz. It could support quicker memory, that may give faster system overall performance. Additionally, it is helpful when upgrading, as you possibly can include RAM to an empty slot instead of replacing a current memory module. The motherboard aids overclocking the RAM to an increased speed. By enhancing the speed of which the memory runs, it is possible to increase the performance of your computer system.
Even more memory networks increases the speed of data transfer involving the memory together with Central Processing Unit. Error-correcting code memory can detect and correct information corruption. It really is made use of when can it be necessary to prevent corruption, such as systematic processing or when working a server. Connectors 1. Fan headers are link points from the motherboard that cooling fans can be attached to.
Followers could be linked straight to the energy offer, however when connected to the motherboard you will get much finer control over them through software. SATA 3 connectors 8. SATA is an interface used to get in touch size storage space products such as for example hard disk drives and Blu-ray drives. This is specially helpful by using an SSD as it could perform at higher rates. USB 3. Even More USB 3.
The motherboard features USB 3. RJ45 ports 1. With an increase of ports you can achieve increased data transfer across a LAN, or hook up to multiple companies. It also has got the added benefit of maybe not losing connection to the network if a person fails. USB 2. The motherboard features USB 2. DVI outputs 0. Expansion slots 1. PCIe 3. PCIe slots enable you to link different elements to your motherboard, such as photos cards and noise cards. The amount after the ‘x’ signifies the amount of lanes, with an increase of lanes supporting greater information transfer prices.
PCI Express 3. PCIe 4. PCIe slot machines enable you to link different components to the motherboard, such as for example pictures cards and SSDs. The number of data-transmission lanes specified by the amount after the ‘x’ determines the data transfer price.
PCIe 2. PCI Express 2. PCIe x1 slots 2. the amount after the ‘x’ signifies the amount of data-transmission lanes. Even more lanes lead to faster data transfer prices. A PCIe x1 slot features one lane and will move information at one bit per period. PCI slots 0. PCI slots enable you to link peripherals towards the motherboard, mostly photos cards but in addition other individuals such as sound cards and network cards.
PCIe x4 slots 0. The number of data-transmission lanes specified by the amount following ‘x’ determines the data transfer rate. A PCIe x4 slot has 4 lanes, with a speed of 4 bits per cycle. PCIe x8 slot machines 0. PCIe slots allow you to connect components such as for instance pictures cards and sound cards to your motherboard. A PCIe x8 slot has 8 lanes and certainly will go data at 8 bit per pattern. Sound 1. Whenever a digital sign is changed into an analog one for instance when playing audio through speaker systems or earphones , a certain amount of noise is carried within the signal.
A greater SNR means there is certainly less noise therefore the sound high quality is better. Each station is a different blast of sound information.
More networks can provide a far more realistic experience, such as for instance offering surround sound. Much more connections means that more sound devices such as for example speakers or microphones may be linked.
Space 1. RAID is a storage technology that combines numerous disks into one unit. RAID 1 mirrors the information throughout the drives. This provides you higher information security just as if one drive fails, the data it’s still accessible from another. RAID 5 stripes the data across the drives, giving increased performance in comparison to an individual disk.
Moreover it provides greater information protection as though one drive fails, the information it’s still obtainable from another as a result of the utilization of parity. It gives increased capability and gratification when compared with just one disk. Moreover it offers greater data security as though one drive fails, the data will still be obtainable from another. RAID 0 stripes the information over the drives, giving increased overall performance and capacity in comparison to an individual drive.
The drawback is if one drive fails, you lose the data on all drives. This gives increased ability and performance in comparison to just one disk. Moreover it offers higher information safety in the event one drive fails, while the information will still be available from another. Which are the very best motherboards?

Bees Wax Small Pillar Candle
Availability: In stock
Beeswax candles are the cleanest, brightest, and longest burning. Here are how those properties translate into a great candle.
100% PURE
Beeswax candles do not require chemical processing. Beeswax is one of the densest waxes and has a high melting point. This means that beeswax doesn’t need any hardeners, additives, or chemical treatments to make a quality product.
Beeswax candles emit light that is similar to the light spectrum of sunlight. This is thanks to beeswax’s high melting point of approximately 65C. Because beeswax has a higher melting point than other waxes, it emits the brightest, most warm-toned flame. Beeswax candles also last longer than most other candles. Because it is so dense (0.958), it burns slower and drips less, and many consider beeswax candles to be drip-free.
Unlike many other candles, burning beeswax actually purifies the air. Beeswax candles emit negative ions which bind with particulate matter in the air, causing the floating particles in the air to drop to the ground.
By choosing Edinburgh Honey Company candles, you can support your local beekeepers. Beeswax is a natural by-product of the beekeeping industry.

Tips on Food Products
meat4Bringing a new food product in the food industry is not an easy thing. However, food specialists can try to invent a style of developing a specific food product so that it can meet the requirements of the various consumers in the food industry. Different people have differences in tastes, preferences, and styles of eating. This indifference has posed a significant challenge to the food specialists such as scientists and technologists in designing a food product that can be comfortably accommodated by a broader particular group of people. A lot of transformations are meant to take place for the food product design to be well-accepted by wider consumers. All these actions of changing the design of a food product are effected by food product developers and processors.
The future scientists in food product development studies are tasked with the responsibility of reading widely the books written by authors in the food industry. This would help them figure out the current information about food products. It would also help them to become successful food consultants and participate in several research and development strategies to help them invent new food products design. They can access all these books online, or purchase them from libraries. These books contain views and methods through which food specialists can come up with simple recipes which prove to be delicious and less expensive. The books will sharpen the mind of food specialists in designing new products while not deviating from the desired quality, efficiency and time limit in making those new food products. Learn more on smithfield meats.
The food specialists are tasked with the responsibility of coming up with food products that can stay for long without losing its flavor even if they stay for long under ideal conditions that do not support bacterial growth. They should also gauge the costs of the materials used in preparing a particular recipe. After that, they can now decide on charges of the retail and wholesale prices of the similar recipe. An expert in food product design should be able to come up with appropriate analysis of the recipe. Visit to learn more.
Later on, the food products should be packed and labeled. The packets or sachets to be used for a given food product should be carefully chosen using appropriate technology and machines. Labeling of the packets should be meticulously decided as the information would act as a marketing tool for the brand new product. The specialist should ensure that they satisfy their customers adequately so that they may go for the similar product over and over. At Smithfield Company, for instance, they must ensure that the safety and quality of food is well considered.

Dec 232009
In case anyone was under the impression that cultural vandalism, such as the blowing up of historical monuments that happen to stand in the way of someone’s ideology, is the monopoly of Islamic fanatics, think again. The other day, Georgia’s (the country’s, not the US state’s) democratically elected president ordered the destruction of a Soviet-era monument, ostensibly to make room for a new parliament building. Unfortunately for him (not that I care) and for two innocent spectators (that I do care about) the demolition was botched, and flying concrete killed these two people, a mother and her 8-year old daughter. As to the memorial… I may not have too many fond thoughts about the Soviet Union and the Red Army, but few things are less controversial than a memorial dedicated to a victory over fascism and the glory of what Russians call the Great Patriotic War… in which, incidentally, some 300,000 Georgians also happened to have lost their lives.

Svenska tjejer
Den här tråden, på CouchSurfing.org, som startades av amerikanen som vill gifta sig med en vacker svensk tjej, är underbar. Det är dels gulligt, dels underhållande.
Lite längre ner beskriver en kille från Costa Rica de svenska tjejerna så här:
"I hate to be the one who disagrees but after being in Sweden for 1.5 years I have concluded that when it comes to Swedish girls they are highly overrated. Why?
-Most of them are not natural blondes
-They are only friendly when they are drunk (and they can drink a lot).
-they are narrow minded when it comes to meet ppl from other nationalities even though they are used to travel abroad since short age.
- youngsters seem to be insanely obsessed with fashion even though they dress nearly the same.
Most of them are pretty looking, I cannot deny it but their heads are mostly empty.
My comment is of course too general and do not discriminate age. "

The Caltech astronomy professor Mike Brown is not the first person to write about the rise of the planet Pluto (discovered in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh) or its recent demotion (in 2006) to second-class citizenry in a newly reduced, eight-planet solar system. He may not even be the best, coming on the heels of Neil deGrasse Tyson’s breezy “Pluto Files,” the novel “Percival’s Planet” and at least one other nonfiction book on the cosmic Pluto flap.
But Dr. Brown has a unique distinction: He was, for a few hours in 2005, the only person on Planet Earth to know that the standard nine-planet solar system model was going to require rejiggering. He had just discovered a 10th potential planet, but he had also come to see that neither Pluto nor this new heavenly body (first nicknamed Xena, then officially named Eris) really measured up to the other eight.
“Don’t you think it would overall be better for astronomy to have new planets discovered than old planets killed?” Dr. Brown is asked by his wife in “How I Killed Pluto and Why it Had it Coming.” His answer led to a lot of trouble. He replied that he though it would be best to get the facts right.
There is ample precedent for the kind of upheaval that Dr. Brown helped to create. He cites an 1837 textbook that described an 11-planet solar system and points out that by 1851 another 15 celestial bodies had been added to the list. So shake-ups and re-evaluations are hardly unprecedented in the world of astronomy. Still, Dr. Brown casts himself as something of a gunslinger, unusual billing in a tale of scientific research.
He’s being facetious, as he often is in this short, eager-to-please research memoir. He has the kind of self-effacing, funny tone that must work well in a lecture hall. Thus he compares objects in the sky to fish in the ocean, with the asteroids as minnows, the major planets as whales and, within the Kuiper Belt beyond Neptune where Pluto and other dwarf planets can be found, “a previously overlooked collection of sardines swimming in a faraway sea.”
Continue reading the main story
Dr. Brown’s efforts to study this region could not have been conducted in earlier times. He relied on the huge telescopes and computer software that have so drastically altered the science of astronomy, advances that have caused scientists to face new technology-induced questions. Is it easiest to study a vast and highly magnified image of the sky? Or is there such a thing as photography so precise that it fills the heavens with (to use Dr. Brown’s favorite type of metaphor) red herrings? How unwieldy is the huge amount of data that today’s instruments can produce?
Mike Brown Credit Bob Paz
And now that scientific information is stored in databases that can be accessed from anywhere in the world, what sort of ethics govern the use of that information? The most suspenseful part of “How I Killed Pluto” has to do with an unresolved dust-up between Dr. Brown and a Spanish group that jumped the gun to go public with the same information, a situation made even more ticklish by Dr. Brown’s detection of hacking in his research database. “Someone had come out of nowhere and kicked us in the gut,” he writes.
Conflicts over credit for astronomical discoveries have been around since the early 17th century, when Galileo used code and anagrams to protect his findings. But the speed with which discoveries can be made public has never been greater, and Dr. Brown found himself torn between the desire to be first and, as he saw it, the moral necessity of being right.
Eventually the pace would quicken when the whole Pluto question was taken up by the International Astronomical Association, an organization known for glacial pacing and rigorous rules. Dr. Brown and his team actually prepared four different news releases, anticipating the four possible outcomes of this group’s deliberations.
The four options: Xena would be named a 10th planet; Pluto would get the boot, leaving only eight planets; nothing at all would change; or the word “planet” would suddenly be redefined. “Why bother writing this one up?” one of Dr. Brown’s assistants asked about that fourth option. “It sounds crazy. No one would decide this, would they?”
They would, and they did, creating a class of dwarf planets that included Pluto and also creating one very large Grinch: Dr. Brown himself. He grew up with the planet-memorizing mnemonic “My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas.” Now he’s got a new one: “Mean Very Evil Men Just Shortened Up Nature.”
While the events in “How I Killed Pluto” were unfolding, Mr. Brown was also obsessed with a different kind of natural phenomenon. His slender, cheery book gets some padding in the form of his courtship, marriage, new fatherhood and (of course) blogging about his baby, Lilah. The presence of so many doting-father asides might get grating if Dr. Brown did not communicate his excitement and happiness so well and go about describing it in such wonky, scientific ways.
He used graph paper to chart the accuracy of babies’ due dates. He kept meticulous data on baby feedings. And when he concluded without talking to his sister that she must be pregnant, she asked the kind of question that gives Dr. Brown’s book its oddball edge. “Are you studying astronomy or astrology?” his sister wanted to know.

Stop Those Invasives!
We are on the brink of Callery pear bloom in early April. Our roadsides and abandoned fields will soon explode into a sea of white blossoms. This may look “pretty”, but if you understand ecology and the impact these aggressive trees have on our ecosystem, you are more likely to feel anger than see attractiveness. Pyrus calleryana ‘Bradford’, the first Callery pear cultivar, has a weak branch structure with V-shaped branch angles that split after 15 to 20 years of growth. Narrow branch angles prompted the breeding and release of many more cultivars such as ‘Cleveland Select’, ’Chanticleer’ and ‘Aristocrat’. In the past, Bradford pear was almost sterile and produced only a few fruits, but with so many newer cultivars in the landscape, they can now cross pollinate and produce an abundance of fruit. Fruit are small and inedible but are carried by birds who drop seed in roadside ditches, easements and natural areas. Many of these invasive flowering pears have thorns and aggressively choke out native trees, like serviceberry that once bloomed along wood edges in early spring. Do not plant Callery pears and consider removing and replacing any growing on your property with a native small flowering tree, such as dogwood, fringe tree, serviceberry, or redbud.
Japanese stilt grass (Microstegium vimineum) is another problem plant in our region. It is an annual grass that has become the default groundcover for roadsides, much of our wood edges and even established woodlands. It thrives in shady sites but will also grow in the sun. Japanese stilt grass germinates in the spring, about two weeks before crabgrass, but doesn’t flower and produce seed until early fall. It is a sprawling grass that roots at the nodes and can completely cover other low growing plants. Our first opportunity for control is to treat known areas of stilt grass with a preemergent herbicide, much like we control crabgrass. The difference is that when we control stilt grass, the herbicide should be applied two weeks earlier than for crabgrass control. You can also control Japanese stilt grass by mowing it in September as it starts to flower but before seeds ripen. You can prevent a new crop of seeds from developing and growing the following year. The trouble with this strategy is there is so much stilt grass seed around that seed can easily blow into an area you have mowed. Stilt grass is easy to pull, so it can be removed from landscape beds, but that strategy isn’t practical for the lawn or large areas of roadsides or woodlands. Work has begun on biological control (Japanese stilt grass is kept in check with insect pests in its native regions) but beneficial insect release is many years away.
These are just two examples of invasive plants that are changing the environment in which we live. Think long and hard before planting a known invasive plant in your landscape and consider removing the ones you already have. For a list of plants on the Delaware Invasive Species List, visit

Plan for Planting
Early March is time to start planning for the spring planting season, the perfect time to rethink your landscape. I recently read a blog about a great concept. The blog author, Jim Anderson, credits native plant speaker, Gerould Wilhelm, with a simple synopsis—plants live in communities in the wild and should also in urban and suburban plantings. This is not the first time I’ve heard this recommendation. Years ago, Paula Shrewsbury from the University of Maryland did some research on why azaleas get bad lacebug infestations if they are in sunny locations. Since azaleas prefer a partially shaded site, she supposed azaleas in a sunny location might be stressed and send out an attraction signal to lacebugs making the azaleas more susceptible to attack. Her research did not support that hypothesis, but it showed something else. Azaleas growing in the shade are part of a complex community that supports more insects, some of which are lacebug predators. So, it is the complexity of the landscape in the shade that provides biological control of lacebugs resulting in less damage to the azaleas.
In a complex community, like a forest or a multi-level landscape bed (ground layer, shrub layer, understory tree and canopy tree layers), some roots die every year. Those dead roots provide organic matter to improve soil structure and provide channels in the soil for needed air and water to flow to plant roots. If you were a tree, would you rather live as a part of a community with other plants where you get watered and feed by the plants around you or would you rather live in a ring of wood mulch and a shallow-rooted lawn that often forms a barrier to rain and air exchange. Easy choice, right?
In Gerould’s talk he goes on to describe a project at a school in which a first-grade class plants a native tree in a large circle (3-4-foot diameter). The grass is removed, and native plants associated with that tree are planted. If the kids planted a bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa) they could surround it with associated native plants like wild geranium (Geranium maculatum), Jacob’s ladder (Polemonium reptans) and Pennsylvania sedge (Carex pensylvanica). Each year, the class (now second graders) can expand the circle and plant more native plants. Eventually, by about fourth grade, the circle would be big enough to accommodate shrubs or small trees. Imagine a school yard in which each class of first graders progressing through the school was working on its own “tree circle.” By eighth grade, the students would understand the concept of community.
I saw the concept of community in a vivid example last summer when I was biking with a friend in Newark. There is a street where narrow backyards back up to the road. Each homeowner treats their backyard differently, but because they are all lined up, they are easy to compare. To some people, the perfect aesthetic is a clean, neat mowed lawn from the back of their house to the street. Others though, opt for a complex community growing in their backyard. Everyone has the right to their preference and to treat their backyard as they wish. But, when more people chose the community concept, our suburban landscape does a better job of providing the ecosystem services we need to survive. It also results in “happier”, healthier plants.

Delaware Plants of 2019
Common Ninebark – Physocarpus opulifolius
Common ninebark is an excellent native shrub for year-round interest. White flowers appear in dense, spirea-like clusters in spring, and give way to clusters of reddish-pink capsules. The clusters eventually turn brown and persist into the winter. The leaves are yellow in the fall. Named for its unusual bark which peels in strips to reveal several layers of reddish to light brown inner bark, ninebark is a popular ‘winter interest’ shrub. Arching branches give this shrub as mounded habit and in groups it makes an excellent hedge and provides good erosion control. Bees are frequent pollinators of ninebark. Ninebark grows in full sun to partial shade and has few disease or insect problems. It can be cut back to the ground in late fall for complete rejuvenation.
Golden Ragwort – Packera aurea
Packera aurea has the unfortunate common name of golden ragwort. It is none-the-less a vigorous and useful native perennial that thrives in moist shady (or sunny) locations, naturalizes rapidly and produces a long and profuse spring bloom. Flat-topped clusters (corymbs) of yellow, daisy-like flowers create blankets of yellow in the early spring landscape. Once it flowers, it is best to cut off the spent flower heads, so you can enjoy the dense groundcover of heart-shaped, toothed, dark green leaves that often have a purplish tinge beneath. Synonymous with and still frequently sold as Senecio aureus.
Visit a garden center in Delaware this spring and pick up one or more of these great plants for your garden!

Pruning 101
Now that the leaves have fallen, it is time to pick up your pruning shears, loppers and pruning saws. The best time to prune trees and shrubs is when they are dormant. You can easily see branches to determine which to prune and plants have stored food in their roots, stems and branches so they will not re-sprout from pruning cuts now. Prune trees when they are young for several years to establish an appropriate shape and you won’t need to continue pruning as they age. Pruning is truly and art and a science. Prune to shape trees and shrubs to grow in their natural habit, but also prune properly to avoid spreading decay throughout the plant.
There are two important pieces of information to remember about the way trees grow. First, branch tissue and trunk tissue are separate. Second, trees never heal, but then can compartmentalize and seal wounds. They seal wounds by growing callus tissue around the cut. Decay spreads most easily vertically in a tree, so it is critical to cut only branch tissue and not allow decay to enter the trunk. When cutting a branch, always prune outside the branch collar (swollen area at the base of a branch). Never cut flush with the trunk as you will be cutting into trunk tissue and opening the tree for spreading decay. Forget about using a wound dressing, they only inhibit the tree’s natural callus response to a pruned branch.
Start by pruning any dead, dying or diseased branches. These branches can be pruned at any time of year. Next, look for rubbing or crossing branches. Rubbing branches may create a wound that will be open for insect and fungal entry. Crossing branches can eventually become rubbing branches as they grow. Remove branches that are growing back into the center of the tree and keep branches growing outward. Finally, remove water sprouts and root suckers.
Use the appropriate tool for the job. Pruning shears are handy but shouldn’t be used on branches larger than ½ inch in diameter. Lopping shears give you more leverage and can prune slightly larger branches. For branches greater than ¾ – 1 inch, switch to a pruning saw. Pole pruners can be used to prune branches that are too high to reach but be careful of overhead wires when using pole pruners.
If branches are large, use three pruning cuts to prevent the weight of the branch from peeling back bark and allowing the wound to enter trunk tissue. Start by undercutting the branch about 4-5 inches away from the trunk. Then saw through the entire branch outside that undercut, removing most of the weight of the branch. Make your final cut just outside the branch collar.
Hedge clippers should only be used for pruning shrubs maintained as a formal hedge. Always prune the top narrower than the base to light reaches all the branches of the hedge. There is no shrub that should be pruned into a ball, despite what you see in the landscape around you! Prune individual shrub branches just above a node or bud to reduce the size and maintain natural shape.
Some shrubs respond well to rejuvenation pruning. Redtwig dogwood, for example, can be cut back to 4-6 inches above the ground and allowed to regrow new branches that will be vigorous and more brightly colored. When you want to encourage new growth, prune late in the winter just before growth starts. If your goal is to reduce plant size, prune in the summer when most of the plant’s resources are depleted. For blooming shrubs, prune after the shrub flowers. Some shrubs bloom on new wood and will respond well to a dramatic pruning. Other shrubs bloom on old wood and removing too many branches will dramatically reduce flowering.
Red twig dogwood responds well to rejuvenation pruning and will grow bright red new twigs for the following winter.

Couldn't find what you looking for?
So me and my boyfriend had sex the two days were my period was pretty heavy. And we didnt use a condom, but he used the pulled out method. Lately I have been getting dizzy and really bad cramps and back achesI was wondering if i could be pregnant because of the pre-cum? Or if i can even get pregnant because I was on my period?
WOW! Hun okay there is a very low possibility of you being pregnant from pre-cum but studies have shown that sometimes it contains sperm and other times it doesn't contain any what the pre-cum does is it acts as a lubricant for the sperm! And getting pregnant on your period It is unlikely, but still possible—especially if you're not using a condom or birth control. Some women have long periods that overlap with the beginning of ovulation, which means they can be fertile even though they're menstruating

Nebiha Ernez-Gribaa
Born in Sousse, Tunisia, Nebiha Ernez-Gribaa started life with a degree in English literature and worked as an English teacher. She later left that profession to dedicate her time to her children and her big passion: painting.
She studied the Beaux-Arts with professor Roggero and officially entered the World of Art in 1971, with an exhibition at the cultural center of Algiers.
voir oeuvres
Since then, Nebiha Gribaa never ceased to excel in her work and her paintings enriched art galleries in many places, such as Sousse, Tunis, Monastir and Hammamet in Tunisia, but also abroad in Paris (1985, 1991, 1993, 1995), Luxembourg (1988), Dubai (1996) and Marrakech (1995).
In contact with her palette, prolific, never lacking inspiration, she takes in her figurative style to a rainbow colored worlds, full of life, strength, love and hopefulness, but also sometimes sad; and she narrates in her paints, what could not be expressed in words.
Influenced by the impressionist movement, Nebiha Gribaa has developed her own technique, with a touch of brush coming from her soul.
Of her works emanates a perfume, a foreign and melodious atmosphere, which revives memories to a past of Arab chivalry, otherwise confined to history books. The eyes focused on her galloping horses, the fruit of a vivacious imagination in quest for fiction.
She says she paints Tunisia... But she expresses the entire Maghreb. The same unseizable silhouettes, entrenched in a delicious sadness, nurtured by the hardships of a life unknown to us, filled with an unexplained delight coming from the essence of their souls, from Tunis to Tangiers via Algiers, everyone in the lap of the old districts of their town.
With her magic brush, Nebiha Gribaa manages to paint sadness in the tone of hope and wring of any melancholy a reviving light.

The War Party Wins Even When We Lose
Russia has attacked Ukraine. Moscow launched an aggressive war without justification. The US is edging into the conflict and rushing troops to Europe. The international economy is staggering as America and Europe impose brutal sanctions on Russia. Democrats are ready to join Republicans in inflating an already outsize military budget. Talk has turned to Taiwan, which could drag Washington into an even worse conflict with China.
All this because the bipartisan War Party that dominates US foreign policy insisted it was entitled to not only dominate the Americas, per the Monroe Doctrine, but the rest of the world, up to, and often beyond, the borders of other nations. Despite the risk of war – far too great, as evident from Russia’s assault on Ukraine – US policymakers would not acknowledge past commitments and halt the steady advance of allied military power toward Russia’s border.
Having just demonstrated to the world its consistent lack of accountability, the War Party now stands to gain more power, influence, and resources. After Moscow’s aggression, the military-industrial-think tank-media-lobbyist-complex immediately swung into action with proposals for enlarged armed services, plans for more aggressive military intervention, and, of course, demands for more money. Washington elites will enjoy enhanced status, positions, influence, and profit while the rest of the population pays the price.
In short, the War Party gains when the rest of us lose. Indeed, policymakers who spent the last two decades making America less safe demonstrated that they do best when they fail. Being a member of the infamous Washington "Blob" means never having to say you are sorry, no matter how many deaths and how much destruction you cause.
The Cold War was extraordinarily dangerous, but the threat of nuclear Armageddon helped keep the peace. The Cuban Missile Crisis chastened both Moscow and Washington. Had President John F. Kennedy listened to his military advisers and invaded Cuba, war would almost certainly have resulted. In Vietnam the American public learned that its government could not be trusted – indeed, the Domino Theory became one of the great busts of history: 14 years after South Vietnam collapsed the Berlin Wall fell. Two years later the Soviet Union dissolved.
Even Ronald Reagan, dismissed as an irresponsible cowboy, turned toward negotiation after the nuclear scare caused by the 1983 Able Archer military exercise. He faced down some of his most fervent supporters – who attacked him as naïve and even a commie dupe – and recognized that Mikhail Gorbachev was very different from the usual communist apparatchik. Together they ended the Cold War.
This extraordinary achievement offered enormous promise. For the briefest moment even NATO appeared ready for retirement. Alliance advocates were reduced to suggesting that the military pact shift to promoting student exchanges and targeting drug pushers. But then interest groups took over, as Public Choice Economics would predict. Blob members and military contractors took the lead in pushing NATO expansion. After all, if the transatlantic alliance brought in new countries and expanded US responsibilities, the War Party would have a new mission and the merchants of death would sell more weapons. Never mind beatific assurances given by allied officials to Moscow – well documented by declassified documents and WikiLeaks revelations. The Russians lost. What could they do?
Well, we just found out.
However, that’s not all. Consider the many other issues on which the War Party has been disastrously wrong. And called out by its critics. Yet when the worst happened, those responsible for encouraging terrorist attacks and starting endless wars profited. The worse their performance, the greater their influence.
For instance, the US backed any number of brutal dictatorships. As long as they proclaimed themselves to be anti-communist, Washington cared little about the human cost – the murders, imprisonments, torture, and other terrible crimes. Sometimes foreign policy requires making difficult choices, but ostentatiously endorsing the worst of the worst, such as Saudi Arabia, a fundamentalist Islamic autocracy, could not help but make enemies. So did supporting Israel’s endless occupation of Palestinian territories and treatment of Palestinians as second-class human beings. As well as Washington warring against Muslims – for instance, intervening in Lebanon’s civil war and attacking Shiite forces. Critics warned of the danger but were ignored. Then came the bombings of America’s embassy and Marine Corps barracks.
Nevertheless, 9/11 shocked Blob members who believed America was immune to attack. Osama bin Laden and other al-Qaeda operatives explained why they targeted the US. And it wasn’t because they believed America to be "the land of the free and home of the brave." In their view, the US was targeting Muslims. As it in effect was, though they were not the only victims of American military intervention. Alas, the George W. Bush administration’s Global War on Terrorism, with an endless war in Afghanistan, fraudulent invasion of Iraq, and widespread drone attacks on other nations, reinforced the radicals’ anti-Muslim meme and multiplied the number of terrorists.
Presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump criticized the Iraq war but staged even broader and more virulent drone campaigns. Despite claims that Washington carefully targeted terrorists, the US often killed the enemies of friendly governments. Particularly chilling were "signature" strikes, based on commonplace behaviors. Reported the New York Times: "Gradually, it has become clear that when operators in Nevada fire missiles into remote tribal territories on the other side of the world, they often do not know who they are killing, but are making an imperfect best guess." Bad guys died, but so did innocent civilians, more than US authorities admitted. Which created even more terrorists determined to take revenge against America. Washington’s actions did not justify the resulting murder and mayhem, but they help explain it.
For instance, New York City’s wannabe Times Square bomber justified his actions based on Washington’s willingness to kill indiscriminately. Pakistani-American Faisal Shahzad explained in 2010: "I want to plead guilty 100 times because unless the United States pulls out of Afghanistan and Iraq, until they stop drone strikes in Somalia, Pakistan and Yemen and stop attacking Muslim lands, we will attack the United States and be out to get them." When the judge asked about his willingness to kill children, he responded: "When the drones hit, they don’t see children." He insisted that "I am part of the answer to the U.S. killing the Muslim people."
Of course, the greatest debacle was the Iraq invasion. Having done so much to encourage terrorism, the War Party used 9/11 as an excuse to expand its radical agenda. The Bush administration quickly lost interest in Afghanistan and turned to Baghdad, shamelessly lying to – or, putting the best possible spin on their misbehavior, irresponsibly misleading – the public about Saddam Hussein’s supposed terrorist connections and nuclear program. Skeptics were vilified, their doubts dismissed as unpatriotic, even treasonous.
The most avid Neoconservatives imagined using the inevitable victory in Iraq as the springboard to additional campaigns, in Syria and then Iran. They imagined no limits. Proclaimed an anonymous staffer, thought to be Karl Rove: "We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality – judiciously, as you will – we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do."
Alas, the expected Iraqi cakewalk went south as real reality inevitably hit. The result: thousands of dead and tens of thousands of wounded Americans, hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis, millions of displaced Iraqis, destruction of minority religious communities, creation of al-Qaeda in Iraq, spread of the Islamic State, and expanded influence of neighboring Iran. It was a heckuva’ achievement. But members of the War Party suffered not at all, as its members were rewarded, promoted, and consulted despite their disastrous records. In Washington, to fail is to succeed, irrespective of the carnage left behind.
And so the saga continues. Europe avoided full scale war during four decades of the Cold War. However, determined to maintain US primacy, the War Party set up the circumstances for conflict today. The decision to attack Ukraine was Vladimir Putin’s. But the crisis reflects three decades of reckless, destructive policies. Washington’s Blob failed again. And already is enjoying even more influence over US foreign policy. While the American people are again paying the price.

Botulism Symptoms, Causes, Treatment - What causes botulism? - MedicineNet
Botulism (cont.)

Medical Editor:
What causes botulism?
Comment on this
Neurotoxin, synthesized and secreted by Clostridium botulinum bacteria (and a few other Clostridium species), cause botulism. The toxin causes the disease by blocking the release of acetylcholine from motor nerve endings. This result produces the symptoms associated with botulism.
How many kinds of botulism are there?
• Food-borne botulism is caused by eating foods that contain the botulinum neurotoxin. Recent small outbreaks have occurred in Canada due to fermented fish and in New York due to unrefrigerated bulk tofu contamination.
Three other kinds of botulism have been described but are seen rarely. The first is adult intestinal colonization that is seen in older children and adults with abnormal bowels. Only rarely does intestinal infection with Clostridium botulinum bacteria occur in adults. Typically, the adult form of this intestinal botulism is related to abdominal surgical procedures. The second kind (injection botulism) is seen in patients injected with inappropriately high amounts of therapeutic neurotoxin (for example, BOTOX, Dysport, Myobloc), while the third kind (inhalation botulism) has occurred in laboratory personnel who work with the neurotoxins. All six kinds of botulism are potentially fatal.
How serious is botulism?
Botulinum neurotoxin is considered one of the most potent, lethal substances known. As little as about 1 nanogram/kg can be lethal to an individual, and scientists have estimated that about 1 gram could potentially kill 1 million people. This small amount of toxin capable of killing humans has made the toxin a candidate for use in weapons for biowarfare and bioterrorism. All forms of botulism can be fatal and are considered medical emergencies. Food-borne botulism can be especially dangerous because many people can be poisoned by eating even small amounts of neurotoxin-contaminated food. A botulism outbreak is a public-health emergency that is reportable to the U.S. government.

War and Peace
The novel that made its author "the true lion of the Russian literature" (according to Ivan Goncharov)[17][18] enjoyed great success with the reading public upon its publication and spawned dozens of reviews and analytical essays in the press, some of which (by Pisarev, Annenkov, Dragomirov and Strakhov) formed the basis for the research of later Tolstoy scholars.[18] Yet the Russian press's initial response to the novel was muted, most critics feeling bewildered by this mammoth work they couldn’t decide how to classify. The liberal newspaper Golos (The Voice, April 3, #93, 1865) was one of the first to react. Its anonymous reviewer posed a question later repeated by many others: "What could this possibly be? What kind of genre are we supposed to file it to?.. Where is fiction in it, and where is real history?"[18]
Writer and critic Nikolai Akhsharumov, writing in Vsemirny Trud (#6, 1867) suggested that War and Peace was "neither a chronicle, nor a historical novel", but a genre merger, this ambiguity never undermining its immense value. Pavel Annenkov, who praised the novel too, was equally vague when trying to classify it. "The cultural history of one large section of our society, the political and social panorama of it in the beginning of the current century," was his suggestion. "It is the [social] epic, the history novel and the vast picture of the whole nation's life," wrote Ivan Turgenev in his bid to define War and Peace in the foreword for his French translation of "The Two Hussars" (published in Paris by Le Temps in 1875).
In general, the literary left received the novel coldly. They saw it as totally devoid of social critique, and keen on the idea of national unity. They saw its major fault as the "...author's inability to portray a new kind of revolutionary intelligentsia in his novel," as critic Varfoomey Zaytsev put it.[19] Articles by D.Minayev, V.Bervi-Flerovsky and N.Shelgunov in Delo magazine characterized the novel as "lacking realism", showing its characters as "cruel and rough", "mentally stoned", "morally depraved" and promoting "the philosophy of stagnation". Still, Mikhail Saltykov-Schedrin, who never expressed his opinion of the novel publicly, in the private conversation was reported to have expressed delight with "how strongly this Count has stung our higher society".[20] Dmitry Pisarev in his unfinished article "Russian Gentry of Old" (Staroye barstvo, Otechestvennye Zapiski, #2, 1868) while praising Tolstoy's realism in portraying members of high society, still was unhappy with the way the author, as he saw it, 'idealized' the old nobility, expressing "unconscious and quite natural tenderness towards" the Russian dvoryanstvo. On the opposite front, the conservative press and "patriotic" authors (A.S.Norov and P.A.Vyazemsky among them) were accusing Tolstoy of consciously distorting the 1812 history, desecrating the "patriotic feelings of our fathers" and ridiculing dvoryanstvo.[18]
Slavophiles declared Tolstoy their "bogatyr" and pronounced War and Peace "the Bible of the new national idea". Several articles on War and Peace were published in 1869–1870 in Zarya magazine by Nikolai Strakhov. "War and Peace is the work of genius, equal to everything that the Russian literature has produced before," he pronounced in the first, smaller essay. "It is now quite clear that from 1868 when the War and Peace was published the very essence of what we call Russian literature has become quite different, acquired the new form and meaning," the critic continued later. Strakhov was the first critic in Russia who declared Tolstoy's novel to be a masterpiece of level previously unknown in Russian literature. Still, being a true Slavophile, he could not fail to see the novel as promoting the major Slavophiliac ideas of "meek Russian character'ss supremacy over the rapacious European kind" (using Apollon Grigoriev's formula). Years later, in 1878, discussing Strakhov's own book The World as a Whole, Tolstoy criticized both Grigoriev's concept (of "Russian meekness vs. Western bestiality") and Strakhov's interpretation of it.[21]
Unlike professional literary critics, most prominent Russian writers of the time supported the novel wholeheartedly. Goncharov, Turgenev, Leskov, Dostoyevsky and Fet have all gone on record as declaring War and Peace the masterpiece of the Russian literature. Ivan Goncharov in a July 17, 1878, letter to Pyotr Ganzen advised him to choose for translating into Danish War and Peace, adding: "This is positively what might be called a Russian Ilyad. Embracing the whole epoch, it is the grandiose literary event, showcasing the gallery of great men painted by a lively brush of the great master... This is one of the most, if not the most profound literary work ever.[22] In 1879, unhappy with Ganzen having chosen Anna Karenina to start with, Goncharov insisted: "War and Peace is the extraordinary poem of a novel, both in content and execution. It also serves as a monument to Russian history's glorious epoch when whatever figure you take is a colossus, a statue in bronze. Even [the novel's] minor characters carry all the characteristic features of the Russian people and its life."[23] In 1885, expressing satisfaction with the fact that Tolstoy's works have now been translated into Danish, Goncharov again stressed the immense importance of War and Peace. "Count Tolstoy really mounts over everybody else here [in Russia]," he remarked.[24]
Fyodor Dostoyevsky (in a May 30, 1871, letter to Strakhov) described War and Peace as "the last word of the landlord's literature and the brilliant one at that". In a draft version of the Teenager novel he described Tolstoy as "a historiograph of the dvoryanstvo, or rather, its cultural elite." "The objectivity and realism impart wonderful charm to all scenes, and alongside people of talent, honour and duty he exposes numerous scoundrels, worthless goons and fools," he added.[25] In 1876 Dostoyevsky wrote: "My strong conviction is that a writer of fiction has to have most profound knowledge - not only of the poetic side of his art, but also the reality he deals with, in its historical as well as contemporary context. Here [in Russia], as far as I see it, only one writer excels in this, Count Lev Tolstoy."[26]
Afanasy Fet, in a January 1, 1870, letter to Tolstoy, expressed his great delight with the novel. "You've managed to show us in great detail the other, mundane side of life and explain how organically does it feed the outer, heroic side of it," he added.[27]
Ivan Turgenev gradually re-considered his initial skepticism as to the novel’s historical aspect and also the style of Tolstoy's psychological analysis. In his 1880 article written in the form of a letter addressed to Edmond Abou, the editor of the French newspaper Le XIX-e Siecle, Turgenev described Tolstoy as "the most popular Russian writer" and War and Peace as "one of the most remarkable books of our age".[28] "This vast work has the spirit of an epic, where the life of Russia of the beginning of our century in general and in details has been recreated by the hand of a true master... The manner in which Count Tolstoy conducts his treatise is innovative and original. This is the great work of a great writer, and in it there’s true, real Russia," Turgenev wrote.[29] It was largely due to Turgenev's efforts that the novel started to gain popularity with the European readership. The first French edition of the War and Peace (1879) paved the way for the worldwide success of Leo Tolstoy and his works.[18]
Since then many world famous authors have praised War and Peace as a masterpiece of the world literature. Gustave Flaubert expressed his delight in a January 1880 letter to Turgenev, writing: "This is the first class work! What an artist and what a psychologist! The first two volumes are exquisite. I used to utter shrieks of delight while reading. This is powerful, very powerful indeed."[30] Later John Galsworthy called War and Peace "the best novel that had ever been written". Romain Rolland, remembering his reading the novel as a student, wrote: "this work, like life itself, has no beginning, no end. It is life itself in its eternal movement."[31] Thomas Mann thought War and Peace to be "the greatest ever war novel in the history of literature."[32] Ernest Hemingway confessed that it was from Tolstoy that he'd been taking lessons on how to "write about war in the most straightforward, honest, objective and stark way." "I don't know anybody who could write about war better than Tolstoy did," Hemingway asserted in his 1955 Men at War. The Best War Stories of All Time anthology.[18]
Isaak Babel said, after reading War and Peace, "If the world could write by itself, it would write like Tolstoy."[33] Tolstoy "gives us a unique combination of the 'naive objectivity' of the oral narrator with the interest in detail characteristic of realism. This is the reason for our trust in his presentation."[34]

in reply to Re^4: non-exact regexp matches
in thread non-exact regexp matches
You are talking about regexes, but your example shows the most trivial regex one can image, namely one that doesn't contain any characters that are special. Do you want to match any possible regex, or are you just looking for matching strings? The latter is far, far more easier than the former - and the latter doesn't need the regex engine at all.
Comment on Re: non-exact regexp matches
Re^2: non-exact regexp matches
by vinforget (Beadle) on Jun 23, 2004 at 15:32 UTC
Optimally, I want to match any regexp, but I am not sure if regexps in perl can handle this in a stable fashion. I've been using regexp to report all nested pattern matches with positions of matches using $-[0]:
m/(regexp)(?{ print $-[0] )(?!)/;
but everywhere I look most people say to stay away from this stuff because:
1) it is not stable
2) it may not be supported in newer versions of perl.
So I'm not sure if I should take a more specific yet stable approach, or a generalisable yet potentialy unstable approach.
I don't see the connection between using the (?{ }) and (?!) to report all matches and your original question of finding "partial" matches.
But so, you want any regexp to match fuzzy. However, then your example is unclear - it's picking out positions in the regex (not in the string) to indicate where characters should be changed. Do you also want to be able to change special characters? Is it ok to introduce characters in the regex to make it match? (That would be easy, just add a | as the first character in the regex).
I can do this just fine, but what if I want to match the above regexp with a tolerance of 2 minmatches for single characters. Below I have an example:

Good point on the storage of transforms. Additionally, by not storing it as a 4x4 matrix, you'd be saving quite a few bytes in memory: matrix = 256 bytes, yours = 32 bytes. You also avoid extraction of parameters from the matrix, it's a simple read now. – legends2k Apr 3 at 2:31
Related answer on matrix parameter extraction in SO. For those curious on the math of extraction: a unit length vector along X (1, 0, 0) is transformed by the matrix; the distance between the origin and new point gives scaling along X. – legends2k Apr 3 at 2:41

A Nostalgic Moment: That old thing in the ground or Vampires on trains :D
WARNING: There could be some spoilers here if you've never read the Necroscope series.
This was the very first book I read up on top of my old abandoned train car. I've told this story before but for those of you who may be new I'll go ahead and tell it again. I had a hard time during high school fitting in and when I was around 15 we moved to a new town. It was very small and I didn't have any friends. I was also having a problem with a few of the local kids. What is it about being quite and shy that just seems to attract all of the jerks? Anyway I just got sick of the whole affair and started skipping school so most days I'd walk to town, visit the library, grab a good book and then make my way to some old train tracks that were a little ways away from the shipping yard and back in this overgrown section there was an old train car just sitting there. Each day I'd climb up on it and just lay down and read a book.
This particular day was literally one of the first few times I'd ever skipped school (which I strongly advise young people not to do. I regret not getting a better education) and I had seen that old train but had never gone near it. That morning I went to the library and saw this book that just looked different than anything I'd ever seen before. It was Blood Brothers by Brian Lumley. I read it was about vampires and it sounded awesome so I checked it out and made my way to that train and for the first time I climbed that ladder and sat down on top and opened a book. The rest of that day was just pure magic.
Blood Brothers is unlike anything I've ever read before. It takes place on a world that's called Sunside/Starside by the local gypsy inhabitants. Once humans had settlements and most live on Sunside where there are more hours of daylight than night while the vampires live in Starside which is dark more often than light. So the humans are very much like gypsies. They're become nomadic and never stay in one spot for very long and constantly keep moving to avoid the vampires which hunt them at night. They hunt them for blood, to make new thralls, to build the insides of their aeries. They are totally twisted and evil vampires. Forget Anne Rice, these guys make Lestat look like prince charming.
They turn humans by leaving any part of themselves within the human. It can be saliva from a bite, it can be during battle. Some will break a part of their fingernail off inside a human's eyesocket when they kill them. Some will rape those they attack. They're just completely twisted. They look like humans until they completely change and then their jaws just keep extending and giant rows of dagger like teeth extend as their mouths fill with blood. All of them have some type of psychic abilities and some of them have amazing control over their own bodies and can use metamorphosis to control them. In a latter book there's one that looks like a giant bat and can fly. Some of them can turn their arms into these air foils and use them to glide. Some have other abilities like Necromancy or the evil eye which they can use to harm or kill with a glance. It sounds crazy but trust me it works. They use their own blood and fluids to create thralls, they can create these giant gas beats and horrible beasts of war made up of multiple humans and human parts. They ride on these giant flyers made up of human parts that have been warped and grown in their vats and they wear these giant gauntlets covered in blades, fish hooks, etc that are way larger than any human fist. When they put their hands inside them they extend their own flesh to make it fit.
During the book you read about two gypsy brothers who are the offspring of someone everyone keeps referring to as Harry Hell-lander who came from a different world and saved the gypsies. I was starting to think this one was a sequel early on but when Nathan is transported through one of the two portals in this world and ends up on Earth and finally meets up with British Ebranch which is a government branch dealing with espionage and when I say espionage I mean ESPionage then it was confirmed that this was in fact part of a larger series. Soon after I finished the book I went to a used book store and found five more books about the Necroscope from Brian Lumley and they were:
Necroscope II: Vamphyri
Necroscope III: The Source
Necroscope IV: Deadspeak
Necroscope V: Deadspawn
I devoured those books. It was so cool getting to go back and read about the original Necroscope Harry Keogh who is a man that can speak to the dead. In fact the dead love him so much that they'll rise from their graves just to help him. The first book he has to fight a Necromancer, one who rips secrets from the dead and can make them feel pain even beyond the grave and it's also his first run in with these vampires. This whole series is just on a level all it's own with it's sheer imaginative world and characters.
I'm not doing the best of job describing it but trust me this one rocks! Some people say to stop reading after the first five books, others say the first three. I say read the first 8 books. The Necroscope plus the Vampire World Trilogy. Anything after that is just fluff and not as good but those first 8 are just amazing. There's a lot of crazy espionage, psychic powers, vampires, action, etc. That first day reading this up on that train was probably one of my favorite days ever. Harry Keogh is still my favorite character of all time and these vampires are hands down my favorite. They're mean, nasty, intelligent and they can even harm you beyond the grave. Never let one of these guys into your mind of your own free will.
This is also the first series that truly made me love a good series and I can remember the next few years eagerly waiting for each new book to come out. I was working 9 to 5 at a Sonic and yes I was a damn fine burger flipper. I could totally flip a burger all the way to the ceiling and catch it behind my back. Sponegebob would have been proud. I didn't make crap for a living and could barely afford anything but I remember buying each book for around twenty something bucks just because there was NO way I could wait on the paperback to come out. The only other series I'd read up to this point was the Dragonlance Legends and Chronicles but I just wasn't much of a series reader. This book changed that and I still love a good series. My old train is gone, school has been long over yet still I have these memories. Even while other memories try to bury me in their darkness I will always have these shining so brightly that I will never get lost in the dark again.

Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer snapped at Boris Johnson after his speech on how the Tory Government planned to resolve the issues plaguing social care. Mr Johnson announced that there would be an increase to National Insurance tax, including those above the age of 65. Sir Keir outlined what this plan would mean for millions of workers across the country, including his “poorly paid” care worker sister.
During Sir Keir’s tirade, Boris Johnson continued to shake his head and roll his eyes at the Labour leader’s comments.
Sir Keir said: “Under the Prime Minister’s plans the quality of care received will not improve.
“There is no plan for that, people will still go without the care they need, there is no plan for that.
“Unpaid family carers will still be pushed to breaking point, there is no plan for that.

How national insurance works (Image: BBC/ Express)
The Prime Minister announced a new “health and social care levy” to tackle the social care crisis ignored by successive governments for years.
The tax hike will see Britons and employers paying an additional 1.25 percent in national insurance a year.
It means someone earning £24,100 a year will be forced to cough up an extra £180 to the taxman, while someone earning £67,100 will pay an extra £715.

Choosing the Right Lubricant
While there are several modalities in which any type of lubricant can be used,
there are a few that require a specific type of lubricant to achieve the best results.
Deep Tissue Massage
Deep Tissue massage is used to reach deeper layers of muscles. A lotion is ideal for this type of massage as it provides the ability to work in one concentrated area. TheraPro Deep Tissue Massage Lotion provides a smooth glide and absorbs quicker than typical massage lotion.
Massage FX
Reflexology massage provides stimulation using pressure points on feet, hands and ears to affect all parts of the body through the nerves. It is best to not use any lubricants during this treatment, but a cream or lotion such as Massage FX can be used to finish.
Soma Silk Massage Creme
Ashiatsu massage is also known as barefoot massage. With this modality, the Massage Therapist uses bare feet to perform basic Swedish and deep tissue techniques. Crème such as Soma Multi Purpose Crème is an ideal lubricant to use for this technique.
Sports Massage
Sports massage is a fast, vigorous modality used to either warm up the muscles before an athletic event or relax the muscles after an event. If you are performing the massage before the event, an analgesic like Biofreeze works best. If the massage is after the event, no lubricant is necessary as the athlete’s natural perspiration provides sufficient glide.

Good Karma
It's not that I don't believe in some sort of God/Goddess but that I am totally against organized religion. I believe in the power of prayer. For example (True story) 10 buddist went to N.Y or Boston? and prayed for ten days and the crime rate dropped like 50%. The power of prayer is amazing. I basically believe that if you are a good person and treat others good, you will be in a good place when you die.Christians are too hypocritical for me! And you don't need to go to church to believe in God, he/she/it is everywhere. The air we breathe,rocks,flowers and so forth. Peace-J

I have never been happier than I have been since I have thrown off the chains of "religon" and embraced the fact that I love the creator of this world and myself. I pray prayers of thanfulness and don't dictate my wants.
Religion (or Christianity in this context) is not supposed to be organized...I've always thought that churches who throw out pregnant young ladies or disown people should not be called a church at all. These people are the biggest hypocrites<br><br />
Jesus Himself was a FRIEND OF SINNERS. He went mainly to place with pregnant teens and all..<br><br />
<br><br />
I agree with you that the power of prayer changes things. Mamatsu Emoto did an experiment with water crystals: A group of Jap Christians prayed beside a river where murders took place, before prayer:ugly crystals, after prayers: beautiful crystals.<br><br />
I believe that it has to do with the hearts of people.They need to be influenced by something else.Some sort of a force or something. <br><br />
<br />
Because humanity itself is mostly dead already...
It's sad isn't it? Why can't all of mankind be nice? Anyways...what does RAR mean? Sometimes I'm an ignorant bunny.Oh well.Peace,J
All that you say is true. I feel 100% the same way and am always trying to educate the sheep out there. Such simple creatures and always so willing to throw one in there own flock out just to survive.<br />
<br />
I watched some one who I always thought was a decent fellow throw his daughter out of his house and her church disown her because she got pregnant. I don't hold grudges, but if I saw this guy in a gutter I walk over him and drop a grenade for good measure. But hey they flock survived in the end and they got to feel big about themselves because they are all little perfect ********. Or if you will hypo's like jenjen said. RAR!

The forest, its water, the quarrying and smelting of iron ore in the late meiaeval and early modern periods
Why the Upper Palatinate developed into one of the centres of European iron production in the late Middle Ages (from the 14th century)
In the 12th and 13th centuries, iron smelting was no longer carried out on the plateaus in the Franconian Jura where the ore was quarried. Instead smelters became a feature of the valleys, where the water power provided by rivers and streams allowed smelting to be done much more effectively in hammer mills. The stages in the process remained the same as in a bloomery. The furnace produced metallic iron, which coalesced with slag to form a mass (bloom). This slag was beaten out under the large power-hammer. When the iron was heated up in another furnace at a higher temperature, dissolved carbon penetrated its crystal lattice, thus creating an iron-carbon alloy – forgeable iron (steel).
Illustration: The mines needed considerable quantities of wood, as can be seen at St George‘s Pit in Sulzbach-Rosenberg. Only if the shafts and horizontal tunnels were firmly shored up, was it possible for mining to take place underground in the sometimes unstable host rock
Illustration (model in the East Bavarian Museum of Mining and Industry, Theuern):
Horse-driven whims, or winches, were common in the ore mines in Amberg. (Whims are mechanical devices which lift heavy items by harnessing the power of animals, which walk round in circles.) By this means the iron ore could be conveyed to the surface from the lower levels of the pits. Here, too, of course, the shafts had to be lined with wood.
Illustration: Sites of hammer mills in the Upper Palatinate in 1475 (from: Ress, M. 1950) 247 mills are listed, including some in the Nuremberg region. In the Schnaittenbach area, two sites are marked, one of them in Holzhammer. The other site is probably that of the hammer mill in Kettnitzmühle.
The organisational basis for the iron industry in the Upper Palatinate was the ‚Great Hammer Agreement‘, formulated in 1387. 69 individuals who owned smelting factories in Amberg, Sulzbach and Nuremberg, as well as other master smelters, joined together to form a cartel-like alliance. This contractual arrangement, allowing for certain changes, survived until 1648/49. One of the aims of the organisation was to deal with the crisis that resulted from the demand for huge quantities of wood for mining and for the production of charcoal for the mills. Limits were placed on the production of iron in order to halt the wholesale felling of trees. As there were close links between the mining of iron ore, its smelting in hammer mills and its distribution, the Upper Palatinate became a fl ourishing european centre of the iron industry. Iron production started to decline at the beginning of the Thirty Years‘ War. One reason for this was the fact that the Upper Palatinate still clung to the already old-fashioned technology of iron smelting in hammer mills. Only when the fi rst charcoal furnaces came into use (in Rosenberg, for instance, in 1693, and in Bodenwöhr in 1717) did the iron industry in the Upper Palatinate slowly start to recover. There was another boom in the second half of the 19th century as a result of the demand for railway tracks and of the introduction of more effi cient coke furnaces in Sulzbach-Rosenberg.

Illustration: Hammer mill, grain mill and saw mill (from bottom to top) at Wolfsbach, Lower Vils Valley, (Amberg-Sulzbach District), early 18th century
Forestry and iron production
For several centuries, forestry and mining infl uenced the development of the woodland in this area. In particular, the iron industry was a vitally important factor from the 13th until the late 18th centuries, since it was dependent on charcoal.
Here are some fi gures that explain this: with 7 centner of charcoal 5 centner of iron could be produced from ore. To produce 7 centner of charcoal, however, 10 solid cubic metres of wood were required. Thus, a rough calculation shows that 2 solid cubic metres of wood were needed to produce 1 centner of iron.
The following statistics indicate the quantities of wood that were made into charcoal for iron production in the Amberg district (from: F. Fritsch 1974).
Year Iron Production (cwts) solid cubic metres of wood
1387 132600 265200
1475 231000 462000
1545 352000 704000
1609 415950 831900
There was, furthermore, an enormous demand for fi rewood, as well as for wood for mine shafts, etc., and for general building purposes.
To put it quite bluntly, it can be stated that twice as much wood was being used as could grow in the same period. Things could not go on like that, since the survival of the woodland was at stake; the capital represented by the woods was being exploited, not the interest they generated!
The condition of the forests deteriorated from decade to decade. In addition, there was a clearly noticeable reduction in the variety of tree species: pinetrees were most suitable for the production of top-quality soft charcoal, and this kind of tree was therefore most popular. The harvesting of wood for charcoal- production usually involved the complete felling and clearance of 50-60-year-old stands of young pines, the thickness of their trunks being most suitable for charcoal production.
Initially, reafforestation meant leaving the forest to re-seed itself naturally, but this was a slow process. In 1368, Peter Stromeier, a Nuremberg alderman, discovered how to regenerate overfelled woodland artifi cially by planting fir seed. In places where a couple of centuries earlier there had been speciesrich woodland containing pine, spruce, fir, beech, oak, lime, elm and birch, pine trees were now dominant. Whereas beeches reputedly made up a quarter of the woodland trees until as late as the 16th century, now there were only sparse stocks of pine trees.

Tell me more ×
I am making a multiplayer game. For the server side I am planning to use python. I will be using websocket in my game.
I know python. But dont know how to handle database and websocket. And which libraries will be appropriate for my purpose.
I need some advice where to start with this..
When down-voting please mention why. Is this question not even remotely connected to programming? I think some people just like to down-vote.
share|improve this question
@JonasWielicki - That is a really poor comment. It is not constructive to this question. – jdi Nov 11 '12 at 17:15
@JonasWielicki Still it does not have anything to do with the question. I guess you mean that the graphics rendering is not fast enough in Python, which is already questionable. However, the question is about game backend not frontend. – btel Nov 11 '12 at 17:18
@JonasWielicki: that may be true in your experience. But the OP is not asking if python is fast enough. And also you don't even know what kind of game the OP is writing. The question was about database and websocket solutions for python. – jdi Nov 11 '12 at 17:18
ok, just thought sharing, will remove the bloat right away – Jonas Wielicki Nov 11 '12 at 17:21
Voting to close, due to overly open ended question. Please try to be more specific, which libraries will be appropriate for my purpose - what is your purpose? – Matti Lyra Nov 12 '12 at 18:01

I would suggest looking at Tornado. It has good WebSockets support.

First decide on what database you are going to use to store your data. That will determine what python client driver you will need to find.
For instance, if you decide you are going to use MySQL, you could use MySQL-python or PyMySQL. There are python client drivers for other database such as postgresql, mongodb, redis, etc.
Once you decide on a database, you can also decide on an approach to serving websocket connections to your clients. Tornado is a high performance async webserver, with websocket support.
You can also look at which is an approach to letting clients connect over many different compatibility layers into the same backend and frontend code. Tornado has an add-on called TornadIO2. Another route is And also ws4py.
What you have is a pretty broad question. So the best advice is to just pick your parts and start the process of getting it to all work together.

This Is actually Why This Year Will certainly Be Actually The Year Of Swimming Pool
A lot of private swimming pools include sun heating system bodies. There is no necessity to sustain this system with power, as it gets its own power coming from the sun. This unit is made to operate year round. swimming pool

One more pool myth is actually that it is actually best to prevent salt in your pool. Having said that, salt is actually an important element of a lot of pool units. You must think about putting in a low-salt plastic lining around the swimming pool if you carry out not need sodium in your swimming pool. Along with a plastic lining swimming pool, you are going to take pleasure in clear swimming water, even after you have actually invested a long time in the pool.
Another common pool misconception is that vinyl fabric linings may boost the preliminary cost of your going swimming pool. Vinyl fabric linings are actually extremely immune to rain, wind, as well as sun, and they remain pristine and also well-maintained for years.
Perhaps the very most significant drawback of inground swimming pools as well as fiberglass swimming pools their impacts on plant life. If you reside in a place where winter season snows endanger to dry out up your pool, fibreglass diving pool may be your ideal answer.
Eventually, one of the major setbacks of inground swimming pools and fiberglass swimming pools is their effect on your family pets. Fiberglass pools are actually known to promptly do away with oxygen from the water, making it hazardous for also tiny fish to survive. This can be destructive to both you as well as your animal tortoise.

Day 23
This morning I got up hoping that at least one of the other eggs would have pipped. As far as I can tell, that hasn't happened. We still have just the one noisy serama baby. It had managed to shed it's shoe during the night, so with difficulty the ever tolerant husband and I replaced it's sticking plaster footwear. It shrieked it's tiny head off the entire time, and the worried mother waddled around the nest in cricles looking for it. When I popped it back next to her, it basically threw a tantrum complaining about this horrific treatment before diving back under her wing. Vera chattered soothingly to it the entire time. Just for the 'awwwww' factor, here's a family portrait:
Vera listens to her youngster's complaints.
So, now I'm wondering if I'll be left with a lone chick. I know that a lone chick in a brooder is not a good thing, but can't find much information about lone chicks with broodies. If I could get my hands on a serama baby or two, I would gladly pop them under her. That is unlikely to happen, though. So this little fuzzy might be it.
If anyone has any suggestions for a unisex name for 'It', feel free to comment.
1. I'd name it Tiger, because of the colours. :)
He/she is gorgeous!
2. aawwwww.
I want chickens!
Do you know how dogs are around chickens? We have a 2 year old German Shepard, who is very good around small children, if that helps!?
3. Just catching up on your blog after a slight absence! I love the family portrait <3

Thread: Pros and Cons (and Pros and Cons)
1. #1
Default Pros and Cons (and Pros and Cons)
hey everyone,
I'm sorry to post ANOTHER "coming out" thread but as far as I can tell I can't find exactly what I'm looking for on the site so i'll just start this thread and ask away (hope you don't mind)
So, I'm debating telling someone (perhaps parents, perhaps bff) about my dl-ism and im weighing the pros and cons of each. I wanted you (yes, YOU!) to give me your opinion.
Pros for parents
- I can wear around the house without worrying about someone walking in on me (I especially tend to diaper up at night when I'm in a binge phase)
-I can buy online (I have debit but not credit card), Goodbye depends, hello Molicare/Bambino/Tena/Abena!
-I might just feel a bit better about myself
Cons for parents
-Potentially destroying our relationship (if they hate or don't allow it)
-making our relationship akward for the rest of our lives (I'd rather never have them know, ever, they might feel weird having a diaper-wearing son)
-etc. I think we can speculate on this one
Pros for bff
-Parents don't have to know but I have someone to wear them around (discreetly of course) and talk to occasionally
-maybe she's also abdl lol never know
-She could order online for me and I could pay her back
Cons for bff
-like parents, our relationship might be forever awkward, distanced, or altogether destroyed by this (she already means the world to me)
-It would always be the elephant in the room
-I might come across as forcing it onto her (sometimes maybe?)
Pros/cons for staying quiet
-I know for sure that my abdl-ness stays under the radar for now at the expense of some minor guilt and anxiety issues
-I finish high school in a year and I could always get better diapers then
-This is not the first time I have had these thoughts, and they have faded before... eventually, but always come back... eventually.
-I miss out on potentially opening up a real-life (non-internet) (SMALL) community of people who know and accept me, but its a gamble either way
Long story short I'm wondering if this is worth acting on or if its just part of a binge/purge cycle and it can wait until im out on my own.
So what do you guys think? i figure most of us have been in this position before... i'd really appreciate some help on this.
thanks in advance!

Hello there.
I would not tell family or friends about these desires. If you had a medical need, then yes, your parents should know immediately. But it sounds like you only wear for fun/pleasure..
Most people will just not understand. In my opinion simply not worth the risk.
If you want to share your desires, feelings, and experiences with others, then you will find lots of great people online. People that feel much the same as you do. Many of us have gone on to meet up in the real world and have become good friends.
Make do with the less exciting diapers for now, and when you move out (in coming years) then you will have more freedom. Could you perhaps get a pre-paid credit card already? Use that for online orders? Order when your family are away on vacation or something? Or have your online delivery ship to a FedEx or UPS facility and pickup yourself?
Good luck and all the best

I recently told my best friend of 11 years about my DL-ism. I told him through an e-mail and he was surprised at first but for the most part he was very accepting of it and said I was an amazing friend for even sharing something this personal about myself. I only told him because I knew that he would respond this way and I wanted to tell someone I knew personally and talk to about this. Now I can, and it feels great! So far he is the only person I ever shared this with. I live with my family and they don't know, but if they ever did find out it wouldn't be the end of the world. They already know I am a bit different anyway. But for you I would only tell your bff if you absolutely know for sure they will accept it. You will be much happier when you find out that they do!
4. #4
First off: I wouldn't tell my parents, siblings or friends. If I have a relationship with a girlfriend and it is progressing toward possible commitment or marriage: I would tell them. Personally, I have not told anyone about being AB/DL/Sissy.
Second: You have listed many of the pros and cons. I have read through my of the threads on ADISC and there are a lot of posts that say 'NO', many that say 'YES' and a number that say 'MAYBE'. From reading these posts, my suggestion is to list the pros and cons (like you have already done), take a week or so to think about possible outcomes and then, if you still feel it is warranted, go ahead a tell the person or persons.
In the final analysis, only you can decide whether you should tell someone.
5. #5
You touched on it a bit in some of the pros and cons, but one thing that needs serious consideration is the effect it will have on the other person. I know that if any of my friends were to come to me and say "you know, I have this weird fetish involving x y and z" my response would be something along the lines of "....... and why are you telling me this?". And from then on I'd probably wonder what was up with them, not because of the details of their fetish, but because they felt the need to go TMI on me.
And looking at some of the pros you have listed:
- You can wear around the house with your family there, I do it all the time and have been on a semi-regular basis for at least a year now and no one has noticed. Just make sure you leave multiple layers of insurance against getting caught (I could go into all sorts of details if you want) and don't let yourself get lazy.
- Debit cards should work the same online as credit cards do in terms of buying things.
- Feeling better about yourself isn't going to happen if more people know about it.
- You can wear around your bff without them knowing. I wear around my friends at college (I actually find it easier to wear in public than at home in terms of hiding it) all the time and no one has noticed.
- Wishful thinking.
- No, don't ask them to be your proxy for buying diapers, that's just weird. Either use your debit card or get a credit card (or buy a pre-paid credit card in a store with cash). In fact, why don't you have a credit card? Use it like a debit card (e.g. don't run up more than the balance in your bank account and pay it in full every month) to establish credit. Then you won't be a complete unknown to the loan company when you finish college and it comes time to buy a house or whatever. Make the case to your parents if the bank needs someone to cosign for you or w/e.
In terms of being able to wait until you're out on your own, you can do it.

Yes the pros and cons for this is larger step could affect a relationship with someone friend or family but also you need think this there no way rewind back what did so be paired for outcome. The only thing can say if do tell family and reaction is bad does not mean still not going love you no matter what you are. The one you need be more worry about is tell GF or BF because those another story I lost few friends when found out wear diaper but just show who true friends are.

It's like american express and discover, not everyone takes it.

i told a friend of mine, just because he told me he's a crossdresser and i felt it to be an appropriate exchange of secrets... nothing has changed between us, except he feels a little less burdened i guess :-)

this will probably echo what many have said. If you're living at home, your best bet is to not say anything just yet. Even the best reaction your parents could give you, it probably wouldn't be as much as you're hoping for. It's best to wait until you have a safe space to go to just in case they react badly. If anything, your friend would be more likely to be understanding. Parents, not so much.
Only you know your parents and friends. I have to say, though, the rewards you may get don't seem worth the risk. You can wear discretely, you have social outlets. It's really not worth the potential downside if you have no place to go.

Honestly, I'm gonna have to say that no one but you can determine whether or not you should tell anyone about this side of you... I will give you my experience but it would be just as subjective as listening to someone describe skydiving.
I told all my friends... literally ALL my friends know about my abdl/little side. I'll get to the "why" in a moment.
I live in one of the most judgemental places in the US (miami) and NO ONE, that i have told has given me negative responses... even my closed minded friends reacted admirably... and granted I have lost many friends over the years but i can tell you right now that in now way was it related to my ABDL side.. it was always over some stupid drama between other friends... So it really depends on your confidence and your delivery and how well you know your friends.
Now, WHY did I tell my friends? Because i was tired of having to hide all my things, and i was tired of having to lock my closet or having random "surprise guests" when i was in baby mode, so i just decided to tell my friends a minimal form of what I do, and if they showed further interest, i would give further information. Granted, doing this took a lot of courage and it also took the conscious decision to say "i dont care if my friends dont wanna stay friends with me because I am who I am and wearing diapers and acting like a baby doesn't change that."
Now, this doesnt mean i act or dress up in front of my friends, it only means that I am free of living in constant fear of being found out. The pros for me where numerous - Most of my friends actually ENCOURAGE me to wear and dress up around them because they want me to feel like I can trust them (I still dont out of courtesy), all my friends have become much closer to me because they feel a sense of comfort in the fact that I trusted them enough to tell them. Not one (i shit you not) person has reacted negatively to my coming out, and I even have friends who envy or admire my ability to "not give a shit" for lack of a better statement.
As for telling parents - i really dont recommend it because nothing good comes from it, and nothing beneficial to you comes from it, especially since you will eventually be moving out and moving on. I had the urge to tell my parents so that i can live in my room without fear of getting caught, but I just bit the bullet and didnt because the days that I did get caught and tried to explain, it always resulted in hospitalization threats, and them begging me to seek therapy and how what i was doing was wrong.... So please consider that telling parents has NO purpose... Imagine your mom telling you about the different kinks her and your dad have? Yits not something you want to hear, and its not something they want to hear from you, whether its a sexual fetish or not.
But when it comes to telling friends, only you can make that call because you know them better than we do, and you know yourself better than anyone. If you feel like they will react admirably, then go for it, but you have to prepare yourself for the worst as well. I'm only 24 and im already in a point in my life where if one of my friends wanted to blackmail me, THEY CANT because the people who I care about already know about me, and the people who don't know i have no close connection with. And even if they blackmailed me with my parents, i STILL wouldn't care because im an adult, Im married and I live on my own, I have the right to do what I want and I am SO GLAD i held out until now because i am happier and freer than ever.
Once again i feel the need to state that just because my experience was 100% positive doesn't mean yours will be, but it also doesn't mean that yours WONT be. There is only one way to find out and only one person who can make that decision: you.
Even though feeling better about yourself is something you also have to determine about yourself, saying that having other people around you who are supportive and accepting wont help that is a big lie... i was going through turmoil the first time i told my SO and a couple of friends and had it not been for their support i probably would still be hiding in my room yelling "freak" at the mirror.
Telling your parents will only make you feel worse because unfortunately the majority of the time they just WONT understand.... And as for having your bff purchase for you, believe it or not, i actually did that for about a year until i was able to get my own bank account... but its not hard to get a bank account of your own and use your own acquired money to buy diapers and things... I started purchasing my own things at age 16 with my own bank card and shipping it to my own home, but then again this requires a mutual respect of privacy between you and your parents, which I also had.
I've been saying this for years and people will probably disagree with me when I say this: but coming to your community for coming out advice is going to net you nothing but more confusion because of the numerous different results various people have had in their lives... Some have had 100% negative and some have had 100% positive and others have had 50/50 or 70/30 and the posibilities are endless because there are an endless amount of people with endless amounts of understanding and personalities in this world. But if there is one thing I can agree on 100% is that telling family members is never a good idea.
The only person who can make your relationships awkward is you. If you treat it like something awkward then its forever going to be the elephant in the room, if you plan on coming out that is. You have to be confident in yourself and treat it like its no big deal, which honestly it isnt when you think about it, and if your friends are smart and logical enough they too will see that its not a big deal and there are worse things.
Sorry if this is a really long response, its just that I see a lot of these coming out threads and the responses are always wildly mixed and different, and i just had to mention that this is not something we can decide for you because we dont know your parents or your friends and we only know you through an online medium. Besides, im sure none of us want to be held responsible for putting you in a negative situation you dont want to be in or for keeping you from being in a positive situation you could have been in.

UP: Sulabh to felicitate over 200 Vrindavan widows
The organisation, which had earlier initiated measures for welfare of the widows of Vrindavan after the Supreme Court expressed shock over their plight, would felicitate around 250 widows.
"Now, we have invited them to come to the national capital to attend a function to felicitate them. We are going to release a book 'New Life' compiled especially on them," Sulabh founder Bindeshwar Pathak said.
Sulabh, which has already promised to ensure adequate medical care of the widows, would hand over five equipped ambulances exclusively for them.
The ambulances would be kept on alert round-the-clock in Vrindavan to meet any emergency. Besides, the organisation would also hand over certain medical equipment to them.
Responding to the directives given by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, Sulabh initiated a series of measures for relief and welfare of these widows in Vrindavan to ensure that they lead a dignified life.
"We have started giving Rs 1,000 per month to each widows living in five government run shelters in Vrindavan. Besides that we have already opened a centre to ensure their proper healthcare and last rights," Pathak said.
With his vast experience in the field of low-cost sanitation and social uplift of manual scavengers, the Sulabh founder said his first task would be to motivate the orphans and able bodied widows to undergo vocational training so that they can earn their livelihood.

Cultural Heritage Management, Creative Tourism, Culture Industry: Prospects and Expectations
subtheme 6
Cultural Heritage Management is a multi-disciplinary activity which has raised global concerns during the last few decades. How do we perceive our ‘cultural heritage’? How is it relevant to contemporary society? Communities and scholars are working at balancing ‘conservation’ and ‘development’ in order to maintain our ‘heritage’ in ways which will be meaningful to our future generations. Collaborations among various stakeholders, with strategies for creative tourism, the culture industry and so on, have proved challenging and sometimes contradictory. This young discipline, however, has brought scholars with different expertise to consider the future of the ‘cultural heritage’ of mankind. Sharing experiences and debating ideas continue to foster the development of the subject.
This sub-theme welcomes panels which focus on the management of both tangible or intangible cultural heritage in all encompassing aspects, including tourism, localism, education, cultural rights, museum studies, public archaeology and so on. We welcome contributions that discuss case studies from different geographical regions. Theoretical debates of such issues are also encouraged.

Spooktober Franchise Review – Final Destination 5 (2011)
Happy Halloween, Everyone! 🎃
I actually made it this year and here we are with the last film in this year’s review of a franchise, ‘FD5’. I made a comment in the closing chapter of the last ‘Final Destination’ film that I have only watched ‘FD5’ once and I don’t remember hating it… What I will say is that ‘The Final Destination’ is still the worst.
‘FD5’ or ‘The Bridge One’ as it’s known in our house, centers around Sam (Nicholas D’Agosto) who has a premonition about a bridge collapsing whilst he and some of his colleagues are going on a company retreat. Of course, the bridge collapses and in true ‘Final Destination’ fashion, Sam’s freak out saves a bunch of his co-workers and we can start the clock as to when the less well developed characters will die.
The best scene in the movie is the opening scene at the company where all of these terrible characters show up one after the other and we as the audience can envision all the terrible things that are in their future.
When Nick has his premonition, this is the list; Candice (Ellen Wroe), Isaac (P.J. Byrne), Olivia (Jacqueline Macinnes Wood), Nathan (Arlen Escarpeta), Dennis (David Koechner), Peter (Miles Fisher) and finally, Sam. Sam’s girlfriend, Molly survives. Molly is played by Emma Bell who was the same woman who played Parker in ‘Frozen (2010)’. That’s the film about the three kids on the ski-lift rather than that cartoon film that everyone loves. I wondered why Molly had no personality whatsoever.
Let’s not fanny around, we’ll start with Candice who is the girlfriend of Peter who is Sam’s friend and boss.
Candice is a gymnast and just by seeing and hearing ‘gymnast’, we know that this is going to be both a juicy and a painful way to go. And indeed it is.
It is a very long winded way to get to the actual death so I’m going to try and remember. The A/C isn’t working and guys are trying to fix it. The unit on the ceiling is leaking water next to a power cable that has a tiny section of covering removed, exposing the live wire. BUT this is a red herring because Candice drops the towel onto the water without realizing the danger.
Next, a screw somehow drops on to the… :-/ … I have no idea what it’s called… the thing that Gymnast’s walk and do backflips on… the horse? Is that what it’s called? That thing, there’s a screw on it and the film seems to take immense pleasure in having the actors perform their routines very close to this screw. Every time Candice steps near it, we as the audience are meant to suck in air through our teeth and cringe and wince.
Then Candice steps off and at this point, I’m thinking ‘this film is cock-teasing me, can we get on with this, I’ve got shit to do’. Believe me, this death is worth waiting for. So another girl gets onto the thing that the gymnasts do their routine on and this girl stands on the screw, falls off the thing, knocks over the bowl of chalk, distracts Candice whilst she’s twirling around on a bar and she flings off, landing in a crumpled heap on the floor. Trust me, of all the characters that are absolutely atrocious, it doesn’t get much more satisfying than that.
Don’t judge me, OK. Every one knows that none of these characters are likeable and this franchise is popular for the long and elaborate death scenes and no one wants to see a character that they like die so lets get in some characters who are absolute cockheads and we can enjoy some nice, gory deaths.
The next person to die is a prime example.
Isaac is a strange character because he’s a womanizer but he’s not like Chad from the last film or should I say, he doesn’t look like Chad from the last film. He’s not your conventional ‘stud’. He may still have some success with the ladies and good for him but he’s actually a dick with it.
Isaac steals a gift certificate for a spa from one of his dead colleagues so he’s already got it coming to him. He has a massage and while he’s sleeping with acupuncture needles in him, a fire starts from a drop of incense ash falling onto a towel soaked with alcohol. Isaac falls off the table but just manages to escape the fire that burns that last of the bottle of alcohol that fell. Then a shelf above him breaks and a heavy Buddha statue falls and crushes his head.
Outside, they see my favourite character, William Bludworth. That’s right, Tony Todd is back onscreen and I love it! He was also at the memorial for the people in Sam’s company that died and told the survivors that Death didn’t like to be cheated. Now he’s here to give the film its own rule. Remember ‘only new life can defeat death’ from ‘FD2’? Well it’s a new film so it’s a new rule. Get ready because this one is a doozy.
As far as Death is concerned, the survivors are already dead. It just hasn’t been made ‘official’. So, if the survivors want to live, then they have to kill someone else, and that person will take their place on Death’s list whilst the survivor will take the remaining life of the person they killed. Make sense? It makes about as much sense as anything else in this ridiculous franchise so yeh, let’s roll with it.
Next is Olivia.
Olivia’s is particularly nasty. Anything involving ‘eyes’ probably will be. Olivia wears glasses and I don’t know why she’s so down about it because I think that she looks cute with glasses but anyway. Surviving the Bridge has given her a new lease on life and made her ‘take the leap’ by getting laser eye surgery but what she doesn’t realise is that she’s in a ‘Final Destination’ film and it’s her turn.
So, somehow some water drips onto an electrical socket with causes the laser to malfunction and burn right through eye, face and hands. But here’s the really stupid bit. Sam and Molly realise that Olivia is next and so go to the office to find her, they hear her scream and run into the office. When they get in, Olivia has free herself from the chair but slips on an eye from a teddy bear she was squeezing and falls out of a window. Erm… what? That’s fucking stupid. What was this window made out of? I’m genuinely asking. Do you know how much force it takes do break a window with your own body? A lot. Much more than falling against it.
By now, we’re more than halfway through the film and there are still at least four more deaths to go.
Nathan is next on the list here’s the twist because there’s always an instance where a character is meant to die but someone else intervenes. This time, Nathan has trouble with a guy who works in the factory he manages, Roy. At this point, Roy gets in Nathan’s face and Nathan sees his death approaching in the form of a large hook and so Nathan, whether intentionally or unintentionally, causes Roy to end up hooked on this hook. Dead.
The group soon realise that William was right because Nathan now has Roy’s remaining life and Death skips Nathan and kills Dennis by slamming a spanner in his head. Ouch.
Now we’re edging closer to the end. Sam works in a restaurant ‘Miro81’… get it? And he’s been offered an apprenticeship in Paris… Hm? Sam takes the apprenticeship and makes dinner for Molly after the service. Then Peter shows up and he’s crazy since he really wants to live even though his girlfriend died but he can’t kill anyone but he can really because he showed up to kill Molly. This whole thing leads to a whole thing where the agent that’s been following Sam through the whole film, Agent Block ‘Courtney B. Vance) is killed by Peter so now he’s killed someone and taken their remaining lifespan. But, he’s left witnesses so now he has to kill Molly and Sam which would presumably mean he gets extra life for killing them? It doesn’t really matter because Sam kills him and that means that Death has taken Peter and skipped Sam. Molly, as we know, is safe.
That means it’s over right…. WRONG!
Now we have the end sequence and this was actually quite clever and I remember being surprised when I watched it for the first time.
All through the film, there are traits that are missing from the previous films such as any lack of modern technology when we all assumed that the events of the film were taking place in 2010/2011 and also the obligatory ‘we did research about the other people who had premonitions and now it’s happening to us’ scene.
Well, Sam and Molly are on the plane to Paris when they see a commotion and a few kids are thrown off. When they take off, they overhear a passenger say that the kid had a dream about the plane blowing up and they realise what is happening, and the plane blows up. Elsewhere, Nathan is in a bar and he’s told that Roy had a brain aneurysm that could have burst at any moment and in split second, the landing gear from the explosion falls through the ceiling and kills Nathan.
For all the terrible acting, the ridiculous characters, the awful script and the CGI that was better than ‘The Final Destination’ but I think could have been better, revealing at the end that whole film was a prequel and having the main characters die on Flight 180 was a nice twist and I think that’s why I remember liking this film. I couldn’t remember anything else except the ending and I suppose that is a way to save a bad film, have a memorable ending.
‘Final Destination 5’ had the same budget as the last one with $40 Million and made $157.9 Million at the box office which is really good.
Also, despite what I think, people seemed to like it with a 62% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Apparently, people thought this one was better in 3D.
So that’s all of the films, on time, clock it in.
If I were to rank them from worst to best, it would go; ‘The Final Destination’, ‘Final Destination 5’, Final Destination 3’, ‘Final Destination 2’ and ‘Final Destination’. The first one was definitely the best and it was a steady decline since then.
We probably won’t have to wait very long for more because from what I’ve read, the inevitable is going to occur and there will be a reboot. Hopefully, someone will have a premonition and stop this terrible thing from happening. That’s the best gag I have for that.
Hello Reader. You should know that I don’t get paid for this website or for my YouTube channels because these are just hobbies for me and to dull the monotony of my existence but the one thing that I would like to get paid for is writing books for which I have already written one. I don’t like Patreon and things like that because you (the provider) aren’t getting anything for the money that you spend. But, spending a couple of (enter form of currency here) on my book is ideal because I get a small amount of royalties and some attention as a writer and you beautiful people and my loyal supporters get an exciting and riveting mystery story that’s written by me.

Google Buzz Settlement Requires Bi-Annual Privacy Audits
Google was in the news several times this week. That in itself is not terribly surprising for the Internet search giant. One story that was of particular interest to privacy advocates was when the Federal Trade Commission announced that it had reached a settlement with the Mountain View, California company over violations of its privacy policy. The deal with Google resulted from Google’s bungled foray into social media known as Google Buzz. Debuting to mixed reviews more than a year ago (Feb. 2010), Buzz combines aspects of Google’s Gmail service with a social network-style platform for sharing information with friends. Buzz landed Google in hot water when users complained that Buzz added people to a network of contacts and then shared sensitive information, such as a person’s most-emailed contacts and other kinds of data by default. The volume of information that suddenly became public stunned privacy watchdogs and prompted a complaint to the FTC.
So, why did the Federal Trade Commission get involved? Unlike financial or medical information, there’s no specific law against setting up a social networking service or disclosing names of people you know to the general public. It turns out, however, that Buzz’s disclosure of contact lists was in conflict with Google’s stated privacy policy at the time. Believe it or not, those policies are very important contracts protecting consumers, even if those consumers never bother to read them. I’ve rarely given them a second thought because I’m always getting new ones at random times of the year–either as a pamphlet in the mail with microscopic text or emails with links to follow when all you want to do is clean out your inbox and watch Fringe on Hulu. It always just seemed like a waste of time because there’s very that little you, personally, can do if the company violates that policy. There are hundreds of examples of other companies getting slapped with fines and penalties for violating their privacy policies, but this settlement goes a long way to reassuring customers (and warning other businesses) that they are actually documents that can be relied upon, even against major Internet companies like Google.
It turns out that privacy policies are kind of a big deal. Everything centers around reasonable expectations of privacy. Companies don’t have to issue privacy policies, but it’s so frequently demanded by consumers that they have become a de facto business procedure. The Federal Trade Commission gets involved when companies create an expectation of privacy by issuing a privacy policy, but then do something that violates that policy. While this would ordinarily be an issue to be resolved by individual or possibly class action law suit for breach of contract, privacy polices are special. The FTC is in charge of enforcing the Federal Trade Commission Act, a combination of laws aimed at protecting consumers and creating a level playing field for commerce. Section 5 of the FTC Act is concerned with false and deceptive trade practices and empowers the FTC to create rules and enforce them. The law is mostly concerned with false or misleading advertising. You probably know it best for being law responsible for all the unreadable text and Micro Machines Man-styled legalese at the end of car commercials. With the rise of companies doing business online, the regulators at the FTC have adapted to deal with these ubiquitous online standard form contracts. They are particularly helpful in addressing the above concerns because they have the power and resources of the U.S. government to go after companies that engage in false or misleading advertising or other practices that individual consumers most often lack.
This brings us back to the Google Buzz settlement. Google had a privacy agreement in place with its Gmail customers stating that it would only use information it had collected for those email accounts for certain purposes, none of which included joining a social network. Yet when it launched Buzz, according to the FTC report, Google led Gmail users to believe that they could choose whether or not they wanted to join the social network, even though the options for declining or leaving the social network were ineffective. For users who joined the Buzz network, the controls for limiting the sharing of their personal information were confusing and difficult to find, the agency alleged. The report goes on to detail how privacy controls and details about what would be shared were misleading, deceptive or just plain sloppy.
The settlement requires Google to obtain users’ consent before sharing their information with third parties if the company changes its products or services in a way that results in information sharing that is contrary to any privacy promises made when the user’s information was collected. The settlement further requires Google to establish and maintain a comprehensive privacy program, and it requires that for the next 20 years, the company have audits conducted by independent third parties every two years to assess its privacy and data protection practices. Considering how many different aspects of the Internet Google is involved with, having the government looking over it’s shoulder for the next two decades should have a major impact on future developments in the privacy arena. Not only will Google have to be more careful about the services it launches, but other companies will no doubt be wary that the FTC will come knocking on its doors. This is a big win for privacy, but it’s a fight that has only just begun.

5 Ways to Build Trust with Customers
Consumer insights on building trust with customers
Thanks to Neil Rackham, founder and president of Huthwaite and author of Spin Selling.
Consistent with The Integrity Chain (http://wp.me/pYHt6-2C), Mr. Rackham notes that trust is the key ingredient in value-added selling.
Customers, clients, prospects and voters are bombarded with so much conflicting and contradictory information, the element of trust is critical to value-added selling.
You usually gain trust in small steps over time. These steps are typically the result of doing something of value for the customer beyond the sales transaction.
Here are five ways to build trust:
1. Invest the time necessary to understand your customer completely. Customers who feel understood usually trust more. By involving yourself more deeply in your customer’s business, you’ll also become indispensable.
2. Be consistent. Earning trust is a time-consuming process that progresses as you deliver value consistently over time. Customers accept value promises from salespeople they trust.
3. Listen more, talk less. Talking does not build trust, but listening may. Customers trust salespeople who listen to what they have to say, especially when it comes to needs and expectations. Listening also results in a better understanding of your customer (see #1 above).
4. Establish common ground and become more familiar to customers. Customers trust what is familiar to them. Value-added salespeople try to establish common ground for dialogue when they meet with prospects or customers.
5. Provide greater responsiveness to customer problems. Responsiveness is a critical component of value with today’s customer. Saving the customer time and providing the answers to problems are essential for value-added selling. This is one reason why first call resolution is so important.
My personal philosophy is you earn customers’ trust by “doing what you say you’ll do when you say you’ll do it.”
This will differentiate you from 99% of the other people with whom your customer is working and generate a high level of trust over time.
How do you build trust with your customers?

How Can You Tell If A Project Is On Track
Designed by Freepik
Your primary attention when managing or working on a project is to constantly seek an update on its current condition and how long until it is completed. Tracking the progress of a project is mandatory for its stability, on-time and on budget execution. And there comes the question, how do you do that?
How And Why We Track Our Projects Using Time Tracking?
Aside from the managerial benefits that come with time tracking your projects, there are some valuable financial additions, which can help you for the future and ongoing projects. With the usage of a time tracking software you can effortlessly control just about everything.
You can… Save Data for future projects and hence develop an accurate estimation of cost and time and use the insight to lower those values. Also to evaluate the work still in process, effectively calculate payrolls and cover all billing/invoicing needs. However, these precious bonuses are only available for those, who want to and do keep track on their projects and use the information they can gather from this action.
So, How Can You Tell If A Project Is On Track?
Simply said, by using time tracking to monitor the advancement of your projects. There are few steps you need to follow, in order to keep track of your entire project.
Note if the progress of the project is according to your original plan, and if not how close is it? Knowing where your project is down the line, how far is it from completion and does it move according to plans and estimations, is not so hard. You just need to keep track of the time tasks take to complete successfully, and if everything is produced on time.
If you record time using time tracking software, these are not difficult to answer questions, since you can create projects schedules and tasks, distribute and assign them to your employees and all you have to do is just check their progress.
Another thing you should point your attention to when managing a project is the major milestones. Creating major milestones for your schedule will help you more easily check off assignments and see if you are all moving according to plan. If for instance you divide the work into portions and groups, the time tracking of tasks will be even less troublesome and as simple.
Cross-functional reviews of the tasks is a determiner not only if they are completed on time but according to the expectation of quality. If you do not review the work completed regularly and while it is being done, the solidity of your project is still uncertain. Therefore, when you use time tracking with screenshots, you can check both time and quality, and react to any complications.
Last but not least is check if the means meet the expectations and the goals. Being on track is not only an issue of timing and standards, it is connected with budget specifics and estimations. If you make a sanity check for the ongoing project and adjust it in the process, you would not go over-budget.
And since everything from time to quality and budget is connected, one cannot go without the other. The only way to know if a project is on track is to monitor all those, from the smallest task to the milestone. If you use time and attendance tracking with screenshots and activity levels, you can keep an eye on the project and adjust the work process to meet your expectations.

Scarlet Letter
N. Hawthorne makes the junction of literature (fiction) with the power conducted for the American puritanismo, based in empirismo. This explains because until today the Scarlet Letter it is a world-wide classic, considered the biggest romance of American literature. In this manner, still making aluso to the studies of M.Foucaut on the sovereignty and the power, we see that the American puritana religion, interlaced to the still existing machismo in the colonial period, made with that Hester Prynne suffered and was banished of a soceidade that nailed a new world, more with thoughts arraigados in the exarcebado conservadorismo. However, it is fact that same with passing of the time, we still find today, women victims of preconception for committing adultery, and nor so little we leave to observe scandals involving priests, who wound the celibacy. It is more common still, to perceive that the religion still is determinative in the formation of opinions, not allowing to many times the process of social evolution.
The critical one of Hawthorne, accurately comes to not only question that the almost limitless power, that the religion exerts on the society. It also shows, that the women do not have to be menosprezadas and inferiorizadas, since as well as Hester, all has force to resist the social preconceptions, also obtaining the proper sustenance. She is very common still in the modern society, exactly with the progress that the movement of feminine revolution, still women exist from fear independence, becoming true slaves of a system that still makes critical guarded to the feminine social status. Being thus, the workmanship of Hawthorne does not stop in the time and transposes barriers, exactly that it portraies the society American, can be brought for current times in diverse analogies with the society in that we live, being collated with the most recurrent quandaries of a modern society.

Tell me more ×
If android having this two activities want to path data of current location from first activity to other what if both in same package but run in different mobile? Each mobile is open and intent so I want to pass the data ( location ) of first mobile to the second one, how could the second mobile take this location where it will appear?
First activity
Intent i = new Intent(yarab.this, ghost .class);
i.putExtra("latitude", loc.getLatitude());
i.putExtra("longitude", loc.getLongitude());
Second Activity
Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();
double latitude = extras.getDouble("latitude");
double longitude = extras.getDouble("longitude");

Remember, whenever you use startActivity() or other means to start an activity, it always starts the activity in the same VM. So you can't just send the command to start an activity in other VM directly. To send the data from a device to other you can use Bluetooth API.

If they're close enough to use Bluetooth, they're probably close enough that sharing location is rather pointless, no? ;) – Joe Jun 21 '11 at 0:42
But the point is you can't invoke the activities to other device, just use any other means to pass data. – Neeraj Nama Jun 21 '11 at 0:46
add comment
You'll need to use some sort of API to handle communicating the data from one device to the other. Each device would send a message to the API, which then knows to transmit that data to some other device.
Using Google Apps Engine and/or C2DM would probably be two good places to start.

The Louisiana health department has cleared the way for Planned Parenthood to apply for a license for its New Orleans clinic to provide abortion services.
In a letter dated Friday, the Department of Health and Hospitals rescinded an earlier requirement that an outpatient abortion facility, such as the one being built by Planned Parenthood on South Claiborne Avenue, provide a “facility need review” demonstrating that its services are needed to preserve women’s ability to obtain an abortion before it can apply for a license to perform abortions in the state.
Such a review had been required under department regulations enacted in 2012.
DHH did not explain why the regulation was being rescinded.
With the review no longer necessary, the department said Planned Parenthood can move forward with the licensing application process such as submitting a $600 licensing fee, a detailed floor plan of the facility and occupancy approval from both the Office of Public Health and the state Fire Marshal’s Office.
“Planned Parenthood is now one step closer to providing safe, legal abortion in Louisiana,” Jewel Bush, a spokeswoman for Planned Parenthood Center for Choice, said in a statement.
Raegan Carter, senior director of external services for the group, said the new health center will offer a full range of reproductive health care.
“When this health center opens, Planned Parenthood will more than double the number of women and men we serve in Louisiana,” she said.
Louisiana has five abortion clinics around the state.
Planned Parenthood’s $4 million, 7,000-square-foot health center would be the third clinic offering abortions in the New Orleans area. Lawmakers tried to slow down construction with regulatory hurdles but were unsuccessful.
The health center will double the size of the organization’s current facility in New Orleans, which offers a wide array of primary care services — including screening for cervical cancer, breast cancer and sexually transmitted diseases — but not abortions.
If it receives the necessary approvals from the state, the new clinic would be the first Planned Parenthood facility in Louisiana to offer abortions.
The construction site has been the scene of several protests by abortion opponents, and Archbishop Gregory Aymond has warned that companies involved in building the facility could be barred from getting contracts with the archdiocese to work on churches or schools.
Planned Parenthood said it submitted a comprehensive “facility need review” application in October, including what it said was extensive research from experts in the field attesting to the unmet need for safe and legal abortion in the region. In January, DHH denied Planned Parenthood’s application.
After Planned Parenthood challenged that decision in February, the department agreed to withdraw its initial denial notice and review additional information.

Firmware, compatibility and more info for Gearbox Shifter on PS4, Xbox One, PS3 and PC
Thrustmaster VG TH8A Add-On Gearbox Shifter
The Thrustmaster TH8A Add-On Gearbox Shifter is launching soon in the United States, at least according to Amazon. The product is created to offer a realistic feel since everything is crafted using metals. Find more images and the current price of the add-on right now on Amazon.
The add-on is designed to be compatible with all existing wheels on the market. More specifically, it should work with the Ferrari F1 Wheel Integral T500, T300RS, T300 Ferrari GTE and T500RS wheels on the Playstation 3 and Playstation 4. It should also be compatible with the TX Racing Wheel on the Xbox One.
One other unique feature is upgradeable firmware. The Thrustmaster TH8A Add-On Gearbox Shifter comes equipped with internal memory that is used to adjust a few elements (shift gear resistance, plate position, etc). The ability to upgrade the firmware of the add-on is important because Microsoft and Sony have been releasing new system updates periodically that could inadvertently break some features of the accessory.
Last but not least, Thrustmaster is advertising that the TH8A Add-On Gearbox Shifter is made to last due to its Hall Effect AccuRate Technology (or H.E.A.R.T.). The contactless magnetic sensor should prevent precision decrease while the exclusions of the potentiometer and tact switch should add more longevity. The item has a listed release date on the 1st of September.

There aren’t many people who enjoy getting out of bed in the morning ready to go, especially when it’s cold. Despite this, we expect this from our vehicles each morning. During a cold morning, it’s the thought of a nice hot shower and a couple of cups of coffee which gets the majority of people out of bed. However, neither a shower or coffee is going to do your car any good.
Help Your Car Get a Good Start on Cold Mornings
If your car struggles in the morning or you are somebody who warms up your car before you drive, below is a great article from Synthetics Northwest with information which can help.
What’s Happening Inside Your Engine?
The best and the first place to start is with a general understanding of what happens inside your engine to keep your vehicle moving. To get you from A to B, a wide range of metal parts, all varying in different sizes and shapes, inside your engine, work alongside each other. This could mean one part sliding against another while another part bumps up against a different part. Whether it’s a slide, grind, or bump, if your engine is running, these parts are interacting. Now, if you can remember back to your science classes from high-school then you will know that metal sliding and grinding against metal creates a lot of friction. Over time, friction can start to damage each metal object. Your engine parts are no exception. Your engine’s best defense against damage caused by friction is the engine oil you or your mechanic pour into it. Engine oil travels through your engine and in and around each of your engine parts, making its way to even the smallest spaces. Once in place, it coats each of your engine parts with a thin, yet protective, barrier of protection. It is this barrier which prevents friction by facilitating smooth interactions between each part. Click here to buy Signature Series 0W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil to keep your engine running smooth and with reduced friction damage. To find out more, check out the online store or speak with an expert at Synthetics Northwest by calling (503) 371-7184 to find out how products like this and a quick synthetic oil change can reduce engine damage and improve your vehicle’s performance.
Do You Warm up Your Car in the Morning?
Now onto warming up your engine. On the surface, it makes sense. After all, you feel like you are better equipped to handle the day after a hot shower or a hot cup of coffee, so why wouldn’t your engine benefit from a quick warm up? In reality, warming up your car isn’t what you think it is. If you are using conventional oil or your current oil has come to the end of its lifespan then, as the weather gets cold overnight, your oil will begin to retract from the small places it once provided protection to and move away from your engine parts. When this happens, your oil starts to clump up in large areas around your engine, leaving your engine parts unprotected and susceptible to damage. In order to begin protecting your parts once more, your oil needs to heat up so that it can return to a thin consistency and start doing its job. So in reality, the act of warming up your engine is really just warming up your oil. This act comes with two main problems.
1. Until your engine oil has become thin enough to spread out and protect your engine parts, your engine is effectively running without its protection. This means that the metal parts mentioned above are no longer smoothly sliding against each other, but are likely to be instead grinding. When this happens, small shards and chips are taken away. Over time, this leads to a reduction in the lifespan of each part with the result being your mechanic mentioning the words all vehicle owners know all-too-well, “engine wear”.
2. The second problem comes in the form of performance reduction. If you think about the small shards and chips mentioned in point 1, then think about where they go. They don’t magically dissolve. Instead, they travel through your engine where they can scrape against other engine parts, causing them damage, or, and even worse, get stuck in between a range of parts. When this occurs, these engine parts are unable to complete their movement correctly, resulting in a reduction in engine performance.
Reduce Friction Damage and Improve the Performance of Your Vehicle with a Synthetic Oil Change in Salem, OR
The easiest way to stop this damage from occurring is by giving your engine a synthetic oil change. By design, synthetic oil isn’t affected by low temperatures, which means that it continues to protect your engine no matter the temperature. The result for your engine is, as soon as you turn the ignition and start your car, your engine parts are immediately protected. To find out more about the benefits of giving your vehicle a synthetic oil change, speak with a friendly expert on the subject. Call Synthetics Northwest at (503) 371-7184 and have a chat about your vehicle and the types of AMSOIL products which can help reduce damage and improve performance.

Why 60 seconds of margin for DS STRIKE?
Th3NightmareTh3Nightmare Member Posts: 1,076
edited June 2019 in General Discussions
Devs, If you really made an improvement to the DS so that it became an anti-tunnel benefit ... ... It seems to me that 60 seconds is too long which, although not "focus" on the survivor (in that time many actions are performed, and it could be the case that you "eat" the perk.
I hope they check the perk.

To summarize, it seems to me a lot of 60 seconds, they should lower it to 30 seconds
• GardeniaGardenia Member Posts: 1,143
Sometimes, you'll just have to deal with it. DS is great where it is, I play Killer most of the time. It's boring to know everything a Survivor is gonna do. Tbh, I think most just don't like the perk no matter how many times it's been nerfed, but it's intended design is to let a Survivor escape from a killers grasp and sometimes you'll just have to deal with, unfortunately sorry to say it....

@Paladin_Goo no, this is inline with it's antitunnelling. As I said, if you're in the terror radius of the killer the timer pauses. If you are being tunnelled, then DS will be able to trigger. If you aren't, then you don't need a 60 second timer. It doesn't need a hard timer, it just needs better tunnelling detection, which the TR is perfect for using.
• DreamnomadDreamnomad Member Posts: 2,847
DS has been through enough changes. The only thing I would like to see happen at this point is reduce the duration of the stun to 3.5 or 4 seconds to compensate for the change to Enduring. Once that is done, leave it alone.

Right, I think I still have problems in my opinion. I can give you a case, there are 2 survivors with the DS, you make the first hook the first survivor (LEGAL GAME), the surviving companion lowers his DS companion, you go to the hook, you knock down the survivor WHOLE 100% life and ... now for X reason you are the same as you did a while ago ... it has not happened 60 seconds, in that sense it is outrageous, even if you leave it and do other actions and look for others, it can be the case that harm the DS at the end of 60 seconds.
and of course, another case may be given that the survivors are idiots ... and you have to deal with the DS strike.
• SomeissuesSomeissues Member Posts: 1,466
60 sec is fine as is, too many baby killers
• OMagic_ManOOMagic_ManO Member Posts: 3,278
To be fair, I just take the DS, gives me more BP and stacks for token perks.
• prof_teabaggerprof_teabagger Member Posts: 121
How is 30 seconds anti tunnel? 30 seconds doesn't hurt that much for the killer to slug and wait next to it to hook again.
A killer who tunnels and stays next to slug should take a huge risk of gens popping left and right or mates picking him up. That's how DS is supposed to work and that's actually how DS is currently working. COMPLETELY FINE. The only people who want DS nerfed are those who tunnel 24/7 and can't win without that. I noticed that in some streams of some killer mains who suck at this game. They complain all day about DS cuz they can only tunnel.

Stop tunneling and it won't be a problem. For me this perk is useless because if killer tunnels me I can loop him for these 60 seconds easy so yeah. Cry more about this perk xD

@Peanits what about my idea of a reduced timer with a Terror radius blocker on it, so it doesn't tick down like deep wound or the RBTs. If you escape the killer's TR, it continues counting down. Of course, Myers and Ghostface can hardcounter this, so perhaps make it so it's a set distance from the killer. Low timer = can't be used for detection, while the blocker means that unless the killer decides to follow you from really far away and just stay at the edge the perk does not lose it's usefulness unless it's already outlived it.
*Crosses fingers for acception of idea*
• KebekKebek Member Posts: 3,676
But what about cases when you don't tunnel anyone as killer but once someone gets unhooked they get their DS, they go for the save knowing that if killer downs them and picks them up not thinking about all previous hooks they can escape for free. Sometimes you can't even slug them since many survivors jump into locker so that you are forced to stand there stare at the locker unable to open it for that minute unless you want to get stabbed.
Maybe giving it condition so that DS activates when killer is within 40m range and prolong its timer to 1 minute 30s ? @Peanits
• Karl_ChildersKarl_Childers Member Posts: 669

@Kebek Here is the thing with your scenario. Even if you leave that potential DS person on the ground, you have gained pressure and it cost you zero chase time to do so. That person lying on the ground isn’t on gens, and most likely will need someone on a gen to come pick them up in time. Issue with old DS was the CHASE time spent on that person. They could run around, take two hits, then extend the chase with DS if you were unable to dribble. If someone runs in your face and you down them, this is entirely different. If you want to hook them, you take that chance. Leave them slugged, you still come out ahead.
• GrazoxGrazox Member Posts: 45

I believe that disabling the perk after the Killer hooks another Survivor would be a fair nerf, so long as the perk still reactivates upon subsequent unhooks whilst unused.
Killers would then no longer just be going about their business, hook someone else, happen to down that first person and then get stunned. But if you at any point tunnel, watch out.
• Karl_ChildersKarl_Childers Member Posts: 669

Wraith would avoid DS also if it’s terror radius, just by chasing cloaked until your reduced timer expires. That would suck as Wraiths are notorious for cloaked camping and tunneling off hook, so it’s one of the the killers you definitely need it to work against. They can already get around BT.
• CronaWinsCronaWins Member Posts: 650
People use DS as an anti-tunnel perk?
I see DS as a free protected minute i can sit on the gen without being harmed by the killer. Get unhooked and instantly run to a gen. If the killer comes, i have a guaranteed escape.
Now with the Enduring nerf, it can't even be soft countered and ensures my safety.
• HarryRenquistHarryRenquist Member Posts: 19
@AetherBytes Red rank tunnelers come back from distance. See Nurse, Spirit and Billy. So, 1 blink and you're down again. Right now this is being done a lot in the red ranks to counter borrowed time. Add DS to the same category and you counter 2 anti tunneling perks at once and make both of them completely useless. I don't see how a "distance nerf" can possibly work and I don't understand how you'll be able justify the benefits of a DS nerf to the disadvantages and possibilities of abusing the mechanics. You still can bring a Mori if you want to kill a survivor in less than 60 seconds after he was unhooked. But what can a survivor do, that tries to live longer than 60 seconds when being tunneled after the unhook? Can a survivor abuse DS? Yes. So make it useless for everyone else? A killer has options to avoid DS: Slugging, Mori, going after other survivors. Be creative. But what can a survivor do when he's being tunneled and DS doesn't trigger, let's say because of a distance nerf? And distance is in no means a reliable factor that proves a killer isn't tunneling. It's easier to catch an injured survivor close to a hook as most pallets around it were already used. That's why he got downed there in the first place. But let's be honest here: there are 4 survivors in the game and 7 generators. There is other stuff you can do. Just avoid picking up people 60 seconds after they were unhooked. And if you still don't want people to live 60 seconds after the unhook, bring a Mori. Tunneling is a commonly used strategy. Don't add mechanics to make it even more popular than it already is. DS has to hurt the killer. If it doesn't, it is useless. It is designed to motivate killers to go after other survivors. I understand your idea and motivation behind it, but you still have options as a killer to avoid DS. As survivor DS is the only option to counter tunneling. The only one.

Even the 60s doesnt ensure any anti-tunneling. What about being downed after chased 61 seconds? Would you not consider this being tunneled? Like a said often enough, DS isnt a decent anti-tunnel perk. Its just a delay perk, with only good work for escaping in endgame.
• KebekKebek Member Posts: 3,676
Like I don't really mind since I consider new DS kinda fair. What I don't like about it is those stupid locker plays when you can't even slug, especially when it's done by someone I didn't even tunnel in the first place.
• rch614rch614 Member Posts: 551
DS. Is. Fine.
It's not just an anti-tunnel perk and can be used offensively by baiting a grab or pretending to mess up so they'll pick you up. If there's an obsession in the game, PLAY AROUND IT. Don't tunnel, don't camp, and slug them if they're getting frisky.
Play around and adapt instead of begging for nerfs from a very manageable perk.

This. DS is as broken and unhealthy for the game as ever.
• tehshadowman33tehshadowman33 Member Posts: 939
I think it should deactivated (but not count as its 1-time use) if:
1. DS Survivor unhooks another survivor
2. DS Survivor completes or helps to complete a generator
3. The killer hooks one of the 3 other survivors who don't have DS active
This way, the perk is more risk and reward. I'd be even willing to let the timer go up to 80 seconds.
• KebekKebek Member Posts: 3,676
Yes that would make it more of antitunneling perk but survivors would rather keep current version which is more of a 1 minute immunity perk then anything else. Like what survivor is getting tunneled when he has time to save/repair gens or killer has even enough time to hook someone else. So much for tunneling.
• KaelumKaelum Member Posts: 991
It should simply be 15 seconds, where the counter only counts down when the killer is more than 32m away. Not tied to the TR, a flat 32m for all killers.

Why Dental Implants Are the Best Permanent Tooth Replacement Option
Dental implants are the best permanent tooth replacement option. In the past, people with missing or broken teeth had to rely on dentures to improve the look and function of their teeth. With dental implants, you can replace your missing teeth with attractive, permanent ones that help you feel and look your best. If you are searching for a dentist in Matthews NC to provide you with dental implants, schedule an appointment with Dr. David Feeney. He can help you determine if dental implants are right for you. Until then, read on to learn why dental implants are the best permanent tooth replacement option.
Improve Self Esteem
No one wants to have missing, chipped or broken teeth. You are more reluctant to smile and laugh. This affects various aspects of your life, including your social and work life. Dental implants provide you with a permanent solution. You feel better about yourself and can work and socialize with more confidence.
Function Like Natural Teeth
Dental implants are the best choice if you want something that looks, feels, and works like your natural teeth. In other words, you can brush and floss them without worrying about having to take them out. You can even eat the foods you enjoy without worrying about damaging them. It's one of the many reasons your Dentist Matthews's office recommends implants.
Protect Facial Structure
Missing teeth can gradually cause your facial structure to deteriorate. Your remaining teeth shift toward each other, causing a drastic change in your appearance. Dental implants stimulate bone growth while preventing bone loss. A dentist in Matthews can help you learn more about how dental implants protect your facial structure.
Better than Dentures
Dentures are artificial teeth that shift around in your mouth. As a result, eating is a challenge. Dentures also interfere with your speech. When you have dentures, you frequently have to have them repaired or replaced. In contrast, dental implants are permanent. They won't slide around in your mouth, and you can treat them like natural teeth.
Schedule Your Appointment
You don't have to live your life with missing and broken teeth. Dental implants are an excellent option for people who want to smile with confidence and eat the foods they want to enjoy. Your dentist in Matthews NC can help you decide if dental implants are right for you. Schedule an appointment with Dr. David Feeney and his caring staff by calling us at 704-847-1000.

Imx Fix in my experience
« prev next »
October 24, 2003 12:17 PM
XboxPC gaming certainly was a lot of fun back in the day ("back in the day" = three years ago) because there was plenty of great modem based online gaming available. I was a major Myth addict 'way back in the day' and later moved onto Unreal Tournament and then to Tribes and Tribes 2. During this time, I made the required video card and processor upgrades, but continually fell behind the curve and was/am unwilling to buy a new PC for the sole use of gaming (I do my work on a Mac).
Life without 2+ ghz processors and Radeon 9600's means that you move back to consoles as your video game delivery mechanism. In my case, that was a Gamecube and an Xbox purchase meant to satisfy two needs; Mario and Zelda action, and PC gaming without the Windows.
I've got the broadband running at home now and have been playing MechAssault and Unreal Championship recently. For some reason they don't have the longevity that I was hoping for (but I certainly have gotten my money's worth on each because I got each of them cheaply and have put in 100+ hours on each (but I still suck)). I need a new online game and the choices are these...
Choice #1 -> Midtown Madness 3
I'm very interested in seeing how online racing games work and if they can be any fun. I'm also curious to see if the type of person playing them is any different than the jerky 16 year olds I tend to find in the first person shooters.
I assume racing games are more episodic than deathmatch sessions where you can just drop in and start fraggin' the aforementioned zit factories. Does this appeal to my 32 year old gameplaying sensibilities, or will i always be waiting for a race to start? I have RalliSport Challenge, and I can go from turned off Xbox to rally action in about 20 seconds.
Choice #2 -> Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge
I have seen several good reviews for this game in terms of graphics, style and online play. This game would be less of a departure from FPS play than Midtown Madness but would still be within that genre making my extensive experience at sucking at FPS's slightly useful. And besides, I don't have any flight based games for my Cube or Xbox and this would probably be the best choice to change that.
Choice #3 -> XIII
I'm pretty positive that I'm going to buy this one when it comes out in two weeks. In particular, I'm interested in this part of what the game has to offer...
Sabotage stood out at the one most likely to get the most play when XIII launches in a few weeks. One team plays offense and the other is defending. The team on offense has to detonate bombs in three specific areas that the defense will be trying to protect. Bombs spawn at the offensive team's base and can only be used one at a time and hand delivered by one of the players to one of the target areas. The bomb carrier isn't handicapped while carrying the bomb and so he can still shoot and use all of the weapons at his disposal, but once he gets to the target area --indicated by a big red numeral 1,2 or 3-- that's when trouble begins. The carrier has to trigger the bomb by selecting it from his arsenal and then continuously press the primary attack button to arm it. It takes 12 seconds for the bomb to be armed, during which the carrier is totally vulnerable since he can't fire any of his other weapons. If at any point, he removes his finger from the fire button before the bomb is armed or if he moves too far away from the target area, he'll have to fire again within the target area to restart the countdown. Repeating this process for the other two locations can make for some dramatic encounters with the defense.
That all sounds like the type of network gaming I want to play. Tribes had a seige based online gametype, and it was lots of fun if you had enough people to play it. Unfortunately, it wasn't the most popular gametype next to CTF and the ever present Deathmatch.
This entire discussion goes on in parallel with the gut wrenching decisions to make on Gamecube purchases. Viewtiful Joe is a must have and I was thinking about Rebel Strike too, and I'm not done with F-Zero yet...and...and....
Too much to play, too little time to play it.

Top 8: Detectives in Anime/Manga
I love me some mystery. Got a huge hankering for it. Thus, I’ve compiled a list of my favorite detectives from anime and manga.
#8: Yuusei Kondo (Eden of the East)
Detectives in anime and manga come in all shapes and sizes. The first entrant to this list fits into the “deadbeat” category, the kind who is grizzled and no longer has the idealistic dreams of defeating crime that they probably started out with.
Yuusei is one of the Selecao who was given a boatload of money with which to change the world. He ends up spending it all without finishing his mission. What a sucker.
Oh well, I like characters like that. Therefore, here he is!
#7: Leon Orcot (Petshop of Horrors)
Leon is from one of those severely underrated anime/manga that I often watch, Petshop of Horrors. He tries desperately to uncover the mystery behind the shop owned and operated by the enigmatic Count D.
While his character is not especially interesting, he’s okay, and without him the story wouldn’t be as good. Thus, he is here!
#6: Mitsuhiro Maniwa (Paranoia Agent)
Mitsuhiro Maniwa goes from soft-hearted detective to video game warrior in the Satoshi Kon-underhype vehicle Paranoia Agent (damn, this show was good).
Maniwa is a pretty simple, good hearted detective whose mind turns to mush as the episodes march on and the world in which the characters lives stops being black and white. The ideals that people live by come to the surface and become exaggerated in their behaviours, and Maniwa depicted one of my favorites: the idea that by being a copy you can be a super hero. It was an interesting character device that wasn’t as much a centrepiece of the show besides the episode or so that featured him in a main role. Good nonetheless.
#5: Yuuki Shinjuurou (Un-Go)
Another great character that epitomizes an often unemphasized archetype of detectives, Yuuki represents the “defeated detective”, the character that had to sacrifice his own reputation to get the job done. I love those characters, the ones who will become the villain for the sake of their duty. That’s exactly what Yuuki does and that’s why he is on this list.
Also, he’s a pretty darn good detective.
#4: Gesicht (Pluto)
Gesicht hails from one of the best manga ever (as declared by me), Pluto, which tells a story spinning off of the popular AstroBoy manga. Gesicht himself is one of the most elaborate androids ever created and investigates the assassinations of robots and androids around the world who are like him. Its a great story and one of the central points is the thin line between humanity and A.I. and where we begin to draw the line between living and existing. This is all shown through the lens of Gesicht and his struggles to both ascertain the culprits identity and also understand the meaning behind his own creation.
#3: Heinrich Lunge (Monster)
It only makes sense that a pretty kick-arse mystery show has a kick-arse detective. That being said, Lunge is definitely one of the more pitiful characters as well, as he eventually loses his family in his obsession to solve the mystery of Dr. Tenma and Johan Liebert. Even during all of that, you never see him break character and I sometimes wonder what he must be thinking. Either way, he is here.
#2: Kyouya Iida (Jiraishin)
Personal plug! I love this manga, and I love this character. It’s just… so dark! God, it’s great.
Kyouya Iida is a no-nonsense, gritty police detective who tends to solve problems with his sadistic nature and Glock pistol. He’s always the smartest guy in the room and you can never really tell what he’s thinking beneath his stony expression. He drives this great manga through each successive dark chapter and I… just love it. Yeah, that’s about it.
#1: L Lawliet (Death Note)
I mean, c’mon. Think about it. L is actually a great character. You can never really tell if he’s a genius or he’s just really, really lucky. I mean, I’m pretty sure he’s a genius. And then he goes and does something really stupid or awkward and you just feel sorry for the guy. Also, he represents the part of the show/manga when Light is still unsure of himself and his actions, when he is still impressionable and not entirely without qualms about killing. L makes him question what it means to kill and what it means to have a friend. Actually, L is what really drives Light over the edge of insanity as L represents everything that Light could’ve achieved as a positive force. Personality-wise they were different, but by potential, they were very similar. That’s why they had such a strong connection. You could see Light break character when he was with L. He wasn’t acting all the time.
Either way, L made this show/manga great. And we won’t speak about any more of that.
Alright, that’s all for now. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Python Program to find quotient and remainder of two numbers
In this simple python program, we need to find the quotient and remainder. It's a beginner-level python program.
To understand this example, you should have knowledge of the following Python programming topics:
How to find quotient and remainder in python?
This simple python program is about the division in arithmetic operation in python. Here we need to divide a number with the given number and print the Quotient and Remainder. For example, consider two numbers 125 and 7, so let us divide 125 with 7, and we get the quotient as 17 and reminder as 6.
To apply the division logic in python language, we accept two numbers from the user, and we are calculating the quotient and remainder separately. For finding the quotient, we divide the number with the given number and save the value to a variable quotient. Secondly, we calculate the remainder using the Mod operator and save that value as a remainder. Finally, print the quotient and remainder using python basic methods and syntax.
STEP 1: Accept the two numbers for the division from the user using the input method and convert the string to an integer using int() in the Python programming language.
STEP 2: Save the value of the quotient after the division of the number by the given number.
STEP 3: Save the value for a remainder using the mod operator.
STEP 4: Print the values of quotient and remainder using the print in python.
Python Source Code
b=int(input("Enter the second number: "))
print("Quotient is:",quotient)
print("Remainder is:",remainder)
Enter the First number : 125
Enter the Second number : 7
Quotient is : 17
Reminder is : 6

How To Make Money Buying Real Estate
There are a lot of shady abbotsford real estate “gurus” out there, but they aren’t necessarily geniuses. These are the very same people who were presiding when the housing crash. Read these tips if you are looking to get into real estate and be a savvy buyer.
If you are making a major commercial property purchase, make sure you get a partner you can trust.
Buyers typically figure out their closing costs by totaling the down payment, any points that they pay to the lender, and the real estate taxes that are pro-related. In most cases though, the closing cost will include extra items like improvement bonds, school taxes, improvement bonds and other items specific to the area.
If you want to increase the value of real estate that you own, try to do some remodeling. You’ll experience the benefit of a fast return on investment and increase in property value rises. Sometimes your property value will increase more than the money you have invested.
Always hire an inspection of the home you want to purchase. You do not want to have a house that needs major renovations. This can be a serious problem if there are structural issues after you buy the inspector an extremely cost-effective and-safety conscious choice that you will be responsible for and you may have to leave your home while it is repaired.
If you are looking to purchase some of or all of a building in order to open a business, select real estate that is in an acceptable neighborhood. Starting a business in an area of high crime and dilapidated buildings will likely lead to obtaining less customers. Talk to real estate agents and find out what locations are available.
When you are choosing an agent to assist you in looking for a house, see how long they lived in that area. If an agent has recently moved to the area, he or she may not be as familiar with things like road conditions, community environments and neighborhoods.
Get yourself a warranty for your home guarantee by way of a warranty. When you are buying a new home from the person who built it, get the builder to provide a warranty, or get the seller of a pre-owned home to provide you with at least a one-year warranty. The builder should be prepared to guarantee his or her work for a minimum amount of time.
Hire your own professionals when you decide to purchase a residence. No one wants to spend money on something that can be had for free. Even though this is true, it’s probably better to hire the people you can trust and that you know personally. Getting to the truth will save you a ton of money down the road.
If you have a car and you are looking to buy a home, make sure that there is adequate parking. This is particularly important for homes that do not have a driveway. If you choose a location with little parking, you might find yourself walking a distance that is left to be desired.
As you read in the intro, don’t rely on the advice of these “experts.” If the experts were so well informed, why did the collapse of the market take place? Avoid people who act like they know everything. Stick with time-tested strategies that have proven themselves safe and effective.

Numerology Life path
Life path numerology is something that a lot of people put a lot of faith in. They think that it is an effective way to determine the kind of people they are, what qualities they are naturally born with, and how they should navigate the murky waters of life. But, is there any truth to this, or is it all just a bunch of theoretical nonsense?
To understand this, you must first know how to check your life path number. It’s easier than it sounds. All you do is take your numerical date and reduce it to a single number. For example, if your birthday was July 5th, 1988, your numerical birthday would be 07051988. You would add 7 + 5 + 1988 together to get 2000, and then you would add those numbers together (2+0+0+0) to get a single life path number 2.
Then, all you really have to do is find the meaning of each of these numbers on the Internet or in a life path book, read the descriptions, and absorb what has to be said about you. Believe it or not, most of the information that is divulged will be quite true and you will make a connection with it right away.
Well, many people use this information in many different ways. Some people try to embrace it to a tee and make their life congruent to what they read. This could be a mistake, though - you don’t want to put too much stock in this information. A more healthy approach would be to just read what your life path information has to day, understand it, and keep it in mind when making major life decisions. In this way, you will have some sort of guidance, but you won’t be bound by some form of arbitrary information.
Finding your life path through numerology can be helpful, but you have to remember not to take it too too seriously. If you do, there is no doubt you will become misguided and make some major mistakes when it comes to making life decisions. You need to think for yourself, but you can always keep this info in mind.

I am using a datagridview in my windows application in VS-2005.
How can I convert some cells in a particular textbox column in my datagridview
to checkbox cell types.
Please provide some suggestions with code (if possible)
Thanks in advance
What actual field type is the field in the column you want to change?
What have you tried?
Did you bother clicking the little arrow on the dataview and editing the columns?
I want to change the textbox column's cells to a checkbox cell at runtime.
I have tried with :
dataGridView1.rows[index].cells["Col1"]=new DataGridViewCheckBoxCell()
this type of code works but with System Format Exception
Then you needed to mention you wished to do so at runtime. We cant read your mind.
Usual way would be to change just the cell, however, you could remove the column that is wrong, and readd it as the right type, rather than try and convert it.
I admire your suggestion but
my requirement is quite the other way
Actually I am not supposed to change or replace the entire column's celltype property
but only few cells for that column
which means my column would have hetrogeneous cells (few textbox cells and few checkbox cells)
note:all to be done at runtime
Then as I said you need to change the cell (which has many examples available via google), and you can do it depending on the contents of other cells.. thats up to you
I understood what you mean exactly, but the datagridview doesn't offer this possibility because cells have to be from a unique type for a given column
I must agree with Jugortha. Datagridview is (as I see it) intended for use within a database context : displaying rows from a databasetable. So you can have a column with dates and a column with strings, but not intermixed. I know we had the same problem years ago( I wrote in Modula-2, sort of Pascal) We made our own gizmo....
You can though if you do your own as the ms article shows implementing a non standard dataview control , as you can have it display dependant on settings.
I will read the article thoroughly, because this intriges me very much. Thank you LizR.
Its logic, you can put in the cell anything you like, not all cells are necessarily the same you could make them different on content. Sure its the same class - but no one says that class has to do the same thing for all the values it supports.
Ok, I think that it is a little bit complicated because you will use your datagridview to display data from a data base generally and you know data tabe in data base is compsed by colmuns and columns could hold data only for one type so the problem persists even if someone inherits from a data grid control and create is own model that suports mixed types in one column
But thats the behavior they want..
I think that mecanisms are going to gether, I explain: all data bases formats are composed by data tables and datatables are composed by data column, each column holds the same type of recored and not a heterogenous set of data, therefore datagridview is designed to be suitable to this paradigm
This is an old thread, but I think I can solve it by saying that everyone is correct and giving the solution to the problem. Yes, you cannot change the contents of a single cell. What you end up with is a format error because the checkbox will only accept CheckState.Checked or CheckState.Unchecked. To get around this, you can handle the dataerror. Here is the solution for the datagrid. I'll put 2 columns, with 2 rows and change the second row of the second column to a checkbox. After the second row is added, I'll change the cell and then run a conditional statement to decide the state of the checkbox.
dim isDanGreat as Boolean = True
DataGridView1.Rows.Add("Is Great?", Nothing)
DataGridView1.Rows(1).Cells(1) = new DataGridViewCheckboxCell
If isDanGreat = True Then
DataGridView1.Rows(1).SetValues("Is Great?", CheckState.Checked)
DataGridView1.Rows(1).SetValues("Is Great?", CheckState.Unchecked)
'now, go handle the data error
Private Sub DataGridView1_DataError(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e_
As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewDataErrorEventArgs) Handles_
'Write what you want, or put nothing if you want to ignore the data errors. :-)
End Sub
*PLEASE* allow us to block LizR and all her totally useless and rude comments.

Caution: You are now annotating this song as
[DJ: This is radio K-EAZY-E. Hi, this is Greg Mac. Mac Attack
Goin' on. Hello, who is this ?]
[Guy1: Yo, what's up ? This is Lorenzo Patterson]
[DJ: Yo man, where you callin' from ?]
[DJ: What's it called man ?]
[Guy1: Yo, it's called "Radio"]
[DJ: We got it, you called the right station. And here it is...]
Eazy E rockin' non stop on the radio
With the funky fresh hip hop in stereo
Release some rhymes that you will find demandin'
With Dre's beats that are so outstandin'
I'm gettin' busy if you know what I mean
Always settin' me a mark in the hip hop scene
On the radio the greatest of all times
Like Muhammad Ali cause I punch rhymes
So tune your station, and clear all the static
And tell the truth: you didn't know that I had it
In me, to be easy about the situation
So just kick it and listen to the station
Playin' my music, it's hard to lose it
It's constantly on request cause you choose it
I'm Eazy E, my rap is strong
[And your radio's def when my record's on _ LL Cool J]
I'm on the...
[Radio (echo) _ Chuck D]
Calls. So give'em a call and ask'em how they're doin']
Hello, this is Eazy E. What's your name ?
[Girl1: Hi, this is Joyce
I'd like to know if I can have your phone number?]
Yes, it's 9-7-6...
Now I wanna turn up my box, and make much noise
And rock the party and shock all the B-boys
Take on my radio from phono to tuner
I wouldn't have did it, later but sooner
Now I move my antenna to the center
Then grab a hold of the handle and (??)
Then bust a rhyme, you know I won't quit it
Your request is clear, that you're givin'
Without Eazy E you wouldn't be livin'
With me on a top 10, or a mix show
So hit your power button, and let's go
On vacation, with your station
That's playin' live in every location
Blowin' out ya speaker
It won't get weaker
I'll keep rockin' till I hit the peek
And your station is dope E-A-Z-Y
It's on the air, but you axe why
I took out the cursin', and took rehearsin'
I feel dry, you know that I'm thirstin'
To get busy; I don't quit it
And once you hear my cut, I know you're gonna get it
Then bust a rhyme, while you're clappin' your hands
Join us this friday night live, we'll be jammin' it uptown with my
Homeboys Eazy E, of course, N.W.A. and the whole Compton posse
Now disc jockeys are playin' me in rotation
Hittin' number one spots across the nation
I'm on the charts, you can go list'em
But now listen, I'm on your system
AM or FM, I'm in power
You hear my music once every hour
So listen up to the rhyme and percussion
But do this with no discussion
Eazy's easin' fans I'm pleasin'
Why, I'm on top yo, I got reason
With no profanity, but what can I say
On the radio you get more looser
Take my word you're a dope producer
We combine to put out hits
But jealous people, they just have fits
Cause we get airplay, but we're not thru
People that hear me, they know what I'm sayin'
On the air, I don't be playin'
Just gettin' my point across to the public
Rhymin' on the radio, that's my subject
It's Eazy E on your radio non stop !
Like TNT. Yo, what's the time ?]
[Girl2: Hi, my name is Tushie and I'd like to know when your 12" record is coming out.]
[MC Ren: Yo, it ought to be out real soon, so just keep looking in your local record store!]
[Stan the Guitar Man: Yo, can I speak to Dre?]
[Dr. Dre: Yo what's up? This is Dre.]
[Stan the Guitar Man: Hey Dre, this is Stan. Remember me?]
[Dr. Dre: Yeah man, I remember you! What's up Homeboy?]
[Stan the Guitar Man: Yeah man, I play guitar on this record! I wanna know
When I get Paid, motha...]
[Dr.Dre: You got ganked...
Hello, you're on the air. What's up ?]
[Girls: Hello, we'd like to speak to that cutie pie DJ speed]
[Dr.Dre: Hello, you're on the air]
[Dr.Dre: Hey, what's happenin', homeboy ?]

Q: It was a wacky day, but you had the dominant car all day long. In the end, it looked like justice. Tell us about it.
CHIP GANASSI: I was telling Dario, we were lucky he had a good enough car he could stretch out his lead there by four or five seconds or whatever because we needed those four or five seconds at the end when we were having to save fuel. We were a little confused listening to some of the others about what mileage is. Everybody monitors everybody else's channels. We were a little confused by some of the numbers they were saying the other teams needed.
The other thing you have to keep in mind is, you know, we were in a situation where we got down to the last 10 laps of the race, OK, you had Castroneves, Wilson, those guys pitted, then you had the guys behind us. Now you get in a situation where they could get by you, not have enough fuel to finish the race, squirt by you, it goes yellow, now they suddenly have enough fuel to finish. You have to be prepared for all eventualities there. We had to play that game being the leader to keep those guys behind us but also stay in front of them to make it to the finish.
MIKE HULL: It was a great day. It's what race teams work to achieve, to win this race. This is the biggest race in the world. Today we had great race drivers and great race teams. I don't know what the head count is here because they never tell us, but I think they were treated to a great show. Obviously we think that at Chip Ganassi Racing.
What we had to employ today was everything we do as a race team. We had to employ setup, speed, strategy, and understanding fuel after different times during the race. That's what we do well as a team. We just try to be consistent in being able to do that.
CHIP GANASSI: Dario asserted himself on the start. Yeah, there was that yellow pretty quick. But he got by Will going into Turn 1. He went around the outside. Then he passed Helio coming off of 2 before it went yellow. That kind of set the stage. I think that was a very important kind of pumping his fist in staking his claim. Certainly you can't win the race on the start, but you can lose it.
I think that went a long way toward getting him up in the seat, knowing how his car was. Then, as the race went on, we were able to pull out one second, two seconds. It was dominant up through 150 laps or whatever.
Between Scott and Dario, they led here before a bunch, and came up short. I think we led 175 laps a couple years ago.
MIKE HULL: We just didn't lead the right laps.
CHIP GANASSI: We led more laps than we led today and didn't win.
Then, you know, probably one of the deciding factors in the race was I think Roger short pitted Helio there to try to catch a yellow. What it did was it actually took him out of sequence with us. I think he might have had a better finish had he not done that. But it was a gamble they had to take to try to win. They came up about four or five laps short.
Q. What about Daytona and Indianapolis?
CHIP GANASSI: Obviously, you know, Jamie McMurray won that race in February. Dario and Target won the race here today. I'm a lucky guy to be in this business and to be able to work with people who accomplish that.
I didn't drive either car. I didn't change any tires. I didn't put any fuel in the cars. I don't do any of that stuff. I have hundreds of people who do that kind of thing. I'm very, very lucky is what it comes down to. I'm very lucky.
Q. You put the teams together.
CHIP GANASSI: 25 damn years or more I've been working on it. I'm just the guy who gets my name on the door, the sign in the front. But it's a lot of hard work by a lot of people, a lot of people who never get the attention they should. A lot of decision making that you never know if you made the right decision or not. You never know. You're on the end of the diving board, I used to hear Roger say. You have no idea what a lonely world it is being a car owner these days. You're in the middle of sponsors in this environment. We have great sponsors. But you got sponsors on one side, drivers on the other side, your team on the other side of you. Everybody is always pushing hard to get those cars to the front.
All we work at at our teams is to win the next race. Someday we'll look back at the record books and say, "Gee, that was a great race, a great year, a great win." But when it comes down to it, it's a sports business. It's every kid's dream.
Q. Chip, how much fuel was left?
CHIP GANASSI: 1.6 gallons.
Q. How far will that take you?
CHIP GANASSI: I have no idea.
Q. Was there going to be enough to get him to the end if it had remained under green flag conditions? How fearful were you that Wheldon could have picked you off?
CHIP GANASSI: I don't think he could have picked us off, but I think he could have passed us. A lot of those guys are kicking themselves because they ended up with fuel left over at the end of the race. The worst thing you want to do is have some control over the fuel either with a switch or the push to pass button. The worst thing you can do, and we've done it, is come up second in this race or third and have fuel in your tank that you didn't use, you could have used more of it.
But that's this race. I mean, that's what it's like when you go into the last three laps or two laps and there's a yellow, white flag and then there's a yellow.
Q. Mike, all through practice and qualifying you guys were struggling with Penske. They seemed to have better pure speed. Dario was able to run a strong speed and they couldn't quite come up to him. What can you tell us about how you were able to make that work in the race? Did you have to do a huge amount of work? Dario and Scott practiced a lot together.
MIKE HULL: In fairness to the Chip Ganassi Racing team, I think we worked all week to do what you saw today. We were fast during the week. We weren't always the fastest car. With what we concentrate on, which is today on fuel, working on race things, mechanical grip versus what the aero side of the car is, I think that was demonstrated very well today.
As a team, we worked hard with Dario and Scott to understand what we needed to do for today. Then you wait for the atmospheric condition, the density of the air. You already have a mechanical setup, the suspension side, the dampening, then you work on the aero side to try to match that up. The worst thing you can do is put too much aero in a car on a day like today. You have to have enough aero to be able to run the laps when you're out front like Dario was today.Q. Chip, you made a decision after a very frustrating year when Dario went to NASCAR to bring him back here. That was a tough year. Did you ever feel like there was no doubt in your mind he could come back and be what he was before, as he has now, or did you have concerns what happened that year was such a downer that it would affect him?
CHIP GANASSI: Yeah, you guys know me well enough to know, I'm not the kind of guy, if we make a mistake, OK, we make a mistake, we move on. If I thought Dario didn't know how to drive, he wouldn't be driving the car, no matter what happened in NASCAR. I knew he knew how to drive. I knew he was the best driver available when that seat became available, and I told him that.
His NASCAR experience, that was like a semester at sea or something that we did. We did it and we're glad we did it but we're glad we're back home, too.
Q. Chip and Mike, there's a lot of major changes in the way the 500 worked out today. Would another change of 10 gallons more fuel have been a help to you guys?
CHIP GANASSI: You can sit there and second guess any race you want. I don't care if you're in NASCAR, IndyCars, Grand-Am, I don't care if you have a fuel switch or you don't. If you have X amount of fuel in your tank, and with that X amount of fuel you can go X amount of laps, just pick a number, you have fuel to go 20 laps, and there is a yellow with 22 to go, you can bet everybody is going to come in and fill up and save fuel till the finish.
I don't understand why you guys don't do a better job of explaining that to the fans. Everybody is like, "We don't like fuel races." There's no way to stop fuel races no matter what you do. There's always going to be that case where there's a yellow right before the exact amount of laps that you need to get full to finish. Everybody keeps trying to put a switch in, take the switch out, have push to pass, all this stuff. It doesn't mean anything. There's always going to be a fuel race. I'm not saying every race is going to be a fuel race, but there's always that incident where there can be guys saving fuel to get to the finish. It's just that simple.
The only way you could legislate that is have everybody stop with 10 laps to go in the race and fill up and say fuel has nothing to do with it so the first part of the race means nothing. You're always going to have that no matter what you do. There's always going to be that instance. Does anybody not understand that? You're always going to have that case, 'cause we never know when people are going to crash. That's one of the things about sports, you don't know the outcome of it. You're always going to have that case. 10 gallons more fuel, yeah, would have helped us today, but maybe last week it wouldn't have.
MIKE HULL: At the point everybody pitted, 10 gallons of fuel wouldn't have made any difference. You still would have had to come back in. We have a 22-gallon cell. What you're saying is should we have a 30-gallon fuel tank. If we had that, lap 60, we all would have made it to the end, yes. We came in over whatever it was, 63 or 64. You're not going to make it. It doesn't matter what clever strategy you employ. If you're full rich and running with your foot flat on the floor at lap 163 at the Indy 500, you're not going to make it.

The Beatles’ “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” is “the perfect pop song” according to science
The Beatles’ song “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” is “the perfect pop song,” according to science. In a new study published by researchers at the Max Planck Institute in Germany, the 1968 hit from The White Album out-ranked other famous pop singles as being the song most close to “perfection.”
So how exactly can science determine the perfect pop song? Researchers started by analyzing 80,000 different chord progressions from 700 songs recorded between 1958 and 1991, reports NME. Chords were then assigned a score, via machine learning, for how “surprising” it was compared to the chord preceding it. Chord sequences from 30 of the songs were then played to a group of volunteers, but they were stripped of both lyrics and melody, so as to make the original song they’re taken from unrecognizable. Volunteers were then asked to rate how enjoyable each chord was.
Results indicated that volunteers enjoyed a song more when chord progressions were unexpected as opposed to being predictable. This information was further supported by data that charted activity in a region of the brain connected with musical pleasure whenever the listener was unsure of how the song would progress.
(Read: Top 10 Songs by The Beatles After The Beatles)
It’s funny that out of all The Beatles songs to receive this title, it’s the one John Lennon famously called “granny music shit.” Then again, maybe he was just bitter that Paul McCartney wrote it. Following close behind it in perfection were “Invisible Touch” by Genesis and “Hooked on a Feeling” by BJ Thomas. “I Want You Back” by The Jackson 5, “There She Goes” by The La’s, “When It’s Love” by Van Halen, and “Red Red Wine” by UB40 also scored highly during testing.
“It is fascinating that humans derive pleasure from a piece of music just by how sounds are ordered over time,” PhD student Vincent Cheung told The Times. “Songs that we find pleasant strike a good balance between us knowing what is going to happen next and surprising us with something we did not expect.”
Now that you’ve heard all the facts, go ahead and let your ears do the enjoying. Revisit the classic “perfect pop song” below.

"Hey what's up guys, It's Scarce here."
-Scarce's intro.
John Scarce (Born: July 21, 1997), or simply Scarce runs a YouTube news channel and is Keemstar's number 1 competitor in the genre.
Keemstar has been known to have a lot of drama with Scarce. Including the fact that Scarce allegedly stole Keemstar's idea for a YouTube drama/news channel. In 2016, Scarce succeded Keemstar in subscribers as a result of GradeAUnderA & Leafy's expose videos causing a massive controversy in the community, resulting in Keemstar's channel to lose hundreds of thousands of subscribers and Scarce taking the title of most subscribed YouTube news channel by mid-2016.
At one point Scarce and Keemstar were going to organize a weight loss challenge, publically announced on DramaAlert, but it was never spoken of again.
As a result of the "AdPocalypse" causing YouTubers to lose monitization and receiving lack of YouTube ad revenue, Scarce and Keemstar made a collaboration video on both their channels, thanking Coca Cola for their efforts in keeping their ads up on YouTube with the #ThankYouCoke hashtag. However, it was later revealed that Coke demonitzed their ads from YouTube along with Pepsi and major companies, leading Scarce and Keemstar to both take down their videos.
On September 22nd 2017, Scarce had been surpassed by Keemstar in subscribers.

You Might Need To Increase Your Iron Intake, Nutritionist Explains
Iron. It’s often talked about, but not in depth. It is in fact one of the most important minerals for the body, and its intake should not be overlooked.
Iron’s on the agenda for this instalment of Nutritionist Explains. Nutritionist and Myprotein product developer Katie Brown is here to explain everything you need to know about iron, its importance and the risks of deficiency.
What is iron?
Iron is found in all our cells but mostly in the red blood cells. You may or may not remember from GCSE biology that red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen from our lungs to the other organs. Your iron status affects the activity of the heart, liver, and muscles, as well as the actions of nerve impulses. So iron is responsible for a bit more than you might realise.
It’s also an essential component of haemoglobin, a protein that transfers oxygen from the lungs to your tissue. Iron is also a component of myoglobin, which is another protein that provides oxygen, and supports muscle metabolism and healthy connective tissue.
Don’t go without, top your diet up with some iron-rich foods:

#guttok has got nothing on Katie.
2022-05-27 15:37:17By Emily Wilcock
Something you may not know is dietary iron has two main forms — haem and non-haem. Haem is an iron-containing compound that forms the non-protein part of haemoglobin.
Plants and iron-fortified foods contain non-haem iron only. This particular type of iron must be broken down by acid in the stomach before it can be absorbed.
Iron deficiency
Iron deficiency, or anaemia, affects a significant amount of the global population. Roughly 25% of the entire world’s population is anaemic. For this reason, we should be well versed in all things iron. Too little iron affects the number of red blood cells in our body, and — as red blood cells ferry oxygen round your body — fewer red blood cells mean limited oxygen flowing to your organs and tissue.
But don’t fret — iron deficiency is gradual. It progresses from depletion of your iron stores — having a mild iron deficiency — to iron deficiency anaemia, which is more severe. Your symptoms will also vary depending how severe your deficiency is, but normal symptoms associated with iron deficiency anaemia are pale skin, fatigue, dizziness and weakness.
All humans lose a small amount of iron when going to the toilet and through their skin, but these amounts are tiny, and the body can cope with it. Certain other groups are at a much higher risk of deficiency than others. Women who bleed monthly through menstruation are more at risk. Pregnant women are also more at risk due to the increase in red blood cell production to sustain a growing baby.
And people with gastrointestinal disorders are at higher risk as they may experience poor absorption of iron combined with loss of iron from their gastrointestinal tract. This combination can lead to a negative iron balance.
Iron supplements
Ensuring your iron intake is strong can be difficult, especially through your diet alone. It can also be a particular challenge for people following plant-based, non-animal and flexitarian diets as they are not eating some of the richest sources of iron — like red meat.
This is why it may be worthwhile taking an iron supplement. Most iron supplements contain what’s known as the ferrous variety of iron. This variant is highly soluble and easier for your body to use.
Other supplements to keep an eye out for would be combinations containing vitamin B12 and vitamin A, which can both help support iron metabolism. Copper supports the transportation of iron around your body, helping it to reach your cells and tissues, and vitamin C improves iron absorption. What a combo.
Can you take too much iron?
So how much iron is too much? And is that even a thing? Surprisingly, yes. While our bodies can store surplus iron, it is possible to exceed the recommended dose. Symptoms of too much iron include constipation, nausea and stomach pain.
Take home message
So there we have it. Now we’ve ironed it all out, you should be up to speed. If you’re concerned about your iron intake or levels, you should always check in with your doctor just to be sure. But as you now know, iron is responsible for much more than many of us realise, so it’s important to keep on top of your intake, whether that’s through supplements or through your diet.

The Offensive Opens
First Clash
Napoleon's Polish Campaign: General Peter Bagration during January - February 1807
Part I: A Surprise Winter Campaign
By Alexander Mikaberidze, Chairman of the Napoleonic Society of Georgia
Having described, in my previous article, Bagration's role in the Russian campaign of 1812, I decided to give an account of his participation in another important Napoleonic war, that of the 1807 campaign in Poland.
An Extension of the Austerlitz & Jena Campaigns
Following his brilliant campaigns of 1805-1806, when the best troops of Russia, Austria and Prussia were crushed in the Danube valley and Germany, Napoleon was on his way to become the de facto master of Europe. Britain had limited her war efforts to peripheral operations in the Mediterranean and Latin America while subsidizing the other members of the Coalition. To undermine her ability to remain a paymaster to anti-French coalitions, Napoleon resolved on economic warfare. In November 1806, he decreed the Continental System, declaring a blockade of the British Isles and closing all French controlled ports to British trade. If largely ineffective, attempts to enforce and expand the system drove Napoleon further toward ever more costly wars. On 16 November, Prussia, whose armies had been routed at Jena-Auerstadt, had signed an armistice at the chateau of Charlottenburg. Peace negotiations were to follow, but if they should fail, the two parties pledged themselves not to resume hostilities without giving ten days' notice. It was King of Prussia, Frederick William, who had taken a refuge at Osterode and denounced the armistice, relying on the Russian armies to beat Napoleon.
After the disastrous defeat at Austerlitz, Russia began to reorganize its military forces. Until 1806 the line regiments were grouped in Inspections, an organizational framework which was now gradually replaced by divisions and corps. Furthermore, the number of Jager regiments was significantly increased from 22 in 1805, to 32 in 1806. In 1805, the Inspector General of Artillery, Aleksey Arakcheev, launched a major reform of the artillery, introducing a new range of guns to replace the old Russian system. By 1806, Russia had mobilized another two armies under the respective commands of General Count Levin Bennigsen and General Friedrich Wilhelm Buxhowden. Together these armies, comprising about 90,000 men, compelled Napoleon to engage in several more months of fighting; once again a war was waged.
In November 1806, Bennigsen moved into central Poland but on the approach of Louis-Nicolas Davout, followed by Jean Lannes, Nicolas-Jean de Dieu Soult and Joachim Murat, he retired across the Vistula to concentrate around Pultusk from where he threatened Napoleon's communications. In late December Napoleon tried to destroy Bennigsen through a manoeuvre sur les derrieres, but bad weather and road conditions prevented the execution of this plan. The Russians escaped from a net that was spread wide, and the actions at Pultusk and Golymin showed that the swift and brilliant strategy of previous campaigns was not to be repeated amid the rigors of a Polish winter.
Benningsen retired north. Napoleon realized that he was nearing the end of his operational range and that the troops' morale was low. In Poland, the poorest region in Europe, it was impossible to live off the land. There were substantial magazines in Prussia, but poor roads and cold weather hampered movement of supplies. But with Bennigsen pushed north, Napoleon was able to disperse his army into winter quarters spread across a vast area north of Warsaw.
Holding court in Warsaw, he hinted at future Polish independence and enlisted Polish troops. Two Polish and two Italian divisions, joined by a Baden contingent, were formed as a provisional army corps under Marshal Lefebvre to invest Prussian-held Danzig, though at this time no close siege was yet possible. Napoleon needed the port to ease his supply problem.
The Russian Offensive Opens: Hunting Marshal Ney
Meanwhile, on 2 January 1807, the Russian command held a council of war at Nowogrod where a plan of the future operations against Napoleon was decided upon. It was determined that the 14th Division and the two divisions under General Count Pierre Essen, now approaching from Moldavia, were to be left between the Bug and the Narew rivers to watch and occupy the French right wing. The remaining divisions would assemble by the beginning of January, between Biala and the right bank of the Narew, for an advance behind the Johannisburg forest into East Prussia against the French left wing. By launching an unexpected and unseasonable offensive in north Poland against Napoleon's flank, General Bennigsen had reason to hope that he could surprise the extended French left wing scattered in bivouacs, and then be able to press forward to force the Vistula line, thus placing his army in a good position for the spring campaign.
Bennigsen moved on 6 January up the left bank of the Narew, by Lomsa, to Tykoczin, with the 2nd, 3rd, 4th 6th 8th and 14th divisions, arriving there on 8 January. Crossing the Narew river, he marched for Goniondz, where received the Tsar's orders conferring on him the Order of St. George in recognition of his action at Pultusk and, what he prized still more, the chief command of the army. Meanwhile, on 3 January, General Peter Bagration had arrived from St. Petersburg and joined the army as a commander of the advance guard. On 12 January, some 75,000 Russian troops crossed the river Bobra, now covered with thick ice, using the vast expanse of forests to conceal their march from the Murat's cavalry screen, and by 14 January were at Biala, where Buxhowden left for Russia, surrendering the command of his army to Bennigsen. The march of the Russian army to northwest was aimed at cutting off the advanced French left wing (Ney and Bernadotte), and forcing Napoleon, by a movement on the Lower Vistula, to withdraw from the Vistula's left bank.
French Marshal Michel Ney had, by this time, advanced northward, despite orders from Napoleon prohibiting all forward movements intended to provoke Russian reaction. The Emperor desired to leave them quiet for a period, while he himself was busy making preparations for the spring campaign. Nevertheless, early in January Ney began to move towards Königsberg. His primary motive was the lack of supplies. Although there were plenty of supplies in Prussia, extremely cold weather and bad roads significantly delayed their availability and arrival. Therefore Ney felt compelled to move further northward and search for rations and fodder. His light cavalry marched on Guttstadt by Passenheim and Oertelsburg and in the following days his headquarters were first at Wartenburg; then at Allenstein, with his troops dispersed all over the neighboring countryside. On 9 January, Ney proposed a strong reconnaissance to determine if the Russians were still covering Königsberg, but eventually he abandoned the idea in consequence of fresh news. By this time Ney had, unwittingly, advanced too far from the general line of the French positions. The Marshal had no positive news about either of his fellow marshals, Jean Baptiste Jules Bernadotte and Nicolas Jean Soult, or about the location of the Russian army. But since his troops were occupying a well-supplied countryside, Ney decided to bivouac there.
Napoleon was informed on Ney's advance only on 16 January. Furious that his orders had been disobeyed, the Emperor blamed Ney for stirring up the Russians. Until that time, Napoleon had confidently presumed that Ney had obeyed his orders and stayed within the perimeter of original advance. The Emperor still had no information on the movement of the Russians' main forces under Bennigsen on the right flank. Cold weather, lack of supplies and almost unknown territory made it difficult to get dispatches and reports in time. As a result, the French headquarters possessed out-dated intelligence on Bennigsen's location, the latter, who by this time was moving northwest on the right bank of the Narew, in the general direction of Biala - Arys - Rhein. Nevertheless, hearing about Ney's advance to the north, Napoleon became suspicious and anticipated the approaching Russian counter-strike.
From 25 January, the Emperor sent a series of orders intending to meet any eventualities on the left flank. Marshal Francois Joseph Lefebvre, who had been ordered to proceed with the 10th Corps towards Danzig, was now re-directed to Thorn with instructions to hold it at any cost. Marshal Pierre Augereau was dispatched to pass the Vistula and concentrate at Plonsk, while Nicolas Charles Oudinot was to leave Kalisch, and reach Lowicz by the 31st.
Bennigsen's intended operations would have been successful, but the implementation of his scheme depended on the rapidity of action and skill of the commander. Bennigsen demonstrated either attribute. The movement of the Russian army, although not discovered by the French, was too slow and indecisive and as a result the Russians missed an opportunity to cut off Ney's corps.
Napoleon, receiving intelligence of the movement of the Russian army toward Schippenbeil and Bischofstein, prepared to make his blow a crushing one. He anticipated that by proceeding further to the west, Bennigsen would inevitably expose his left flank and rear to an attack of the French main forces. Napoleon at once determined a new scheme according to which his left flank was at Thorn, while rest of troops move wheeling from Thorn to his right and center, driving Bennigsen into the angle between the Lower Vistula and the Frisches-Haff. To this end, Napoleon ordered a general advance to Allenstein. Murat was to assemble his troops at Raciaz, while the Emperor himself proceeded with his headquarters to Prasznitz and Willemburg; Marshal Soult's forces would concentrate at Willemburg. Ney was ordered to cover Soult's left, and, with Augereau now marching on Mlawa, to unite with Bernadotte.
Meanwhile, Ney, having not received yet the orders from Imperial Headquarters and unaware of the Russians' approach, still had his cavalry at Schippenbeil. On 19 January, these French elements were encountered by Bagration's advance detachment under Golitsyn, who was exploring the roads from Rhein towards Königsberg on the right, and Bischofstein on the left. On the same day, General Lestocq managed to unite with the Russian right flank. Meanwhile, because the main Russian forces marched from Rhein in three columns, Bagration had decided to divide his advance guard into three parts to cover each of main.
On 20 January, Bagration established his headquarters at Roessel, on the midway between Rastenburg and Bischofstein, while Golitsyn was attacking Ney's corps in the north. By the 21st January, Lestocq's Prussians and the Russians took positions on the line from Schippenbeil to Bischofstein.
That day at Bischofstein, Ney's light cavalry under Auguste Colbel, retreating from Schippenbeil through Bartenstein, was attacked by Bagration's advance guard, and driven back to Seeburg. Simultaneously, Bagration sent detachments to penetrate further as far as Heilsberg and to move on towards the river Passarge, while the Russian main forces were halted. By 22 January, Ney succeeded in making good his retreat, though with losses, to Neidenburg, where he extended his corps towards Soult on his right, and Bernadotte on his left.
First Clash: Mohrungen
With these first success, the Russian and Prussian forces continued advance. On the 22nd, Prussian troops marched from Schippenbeil towards Bartenstein and pushed outposts towards Landsberg. On 24 January, the Russian headquarters were already at Heilsberg, with advance guard approaching the Liebstadt where, after a short fight, they defeated the French rearguard and captured about 300 French cavalry and infantry. On the 25th, Bennigsen's headquarters reached Arensdorf, his left column, passing the Alle at Guttstadt, reached the Passarge at Deppen, while Bagration directed the advance guard forward to Alt-Reichau on the road to Mohrungen. The right column of the Russian army marched through Arensdorf to Liebstadt.
Upon receiving the news of the Russian's advance, Bernadotte immediately ordered Dupont's division, Laplanche's dragoons, and the light cavalry to assemble at Preussisch Holland. Pursuing the retreating forces of Bernadotte, Bagration's advance guard under Markow encountered the French on 25 January at Mohrungen. Bernadotte immediately prepared to attack superior Russians. The fight continued for the whole of the 25th, with considerable losses on both sides. During the clash, Bernadotte was informed that the Russian cavalry had suddenly appeared behind him at Mohrungen, thus cutting the French line of retreat. This threat was posed by the squadrons of the left wing of the Russian army that, moving through Alt Reichau and passing between Narien and Mahrung lakes, had advanced to Mohrungen and captured the baggage and supply columns. Besides these, they had captured some 300 French troops and released about 200 Russian and Prussian prisoners. Hearing the firing to his rear, Bernadotte at once counter-marched with his men to attack the Russians there, driving them out of Mohrungen and capturing one detachment. The losses were heavy for both sides, with French casualties totaling in 26 officers and 670 men killed and wounded, and 400 prisoners, while the Russians counted losses of 1,100 killed and wounded, 300 prisoners.
The action in front of Mohrungen might have involved Bernadotte in a serious disaster, since he should have taken measures to protect the area between the lakes on his right rear. Probably he felt that he had not sufficient troops available to be able to spare any for this purpose. After the clash at Mohrungen, Bernadotte retreated on Liebemuhl.
Meanwhile Bennigsen occupied Mohrungen with part of his main army on 26 January, the rest coming up on the next day. Bagration sent on his advance guards to Allenstein upon its evacuatation by Bernadotte's forces, which marched on Lobau. On the 28th, Bennigsen, seeing the exhaustion of the soldiers from continual marching, decided to rest and replenish his supplies.

Paint Tip For You
I’m always looking for ways to save money and paint is one of those things that you just usually have to shell out the money for… except if you can find some “oops paint”. They usually have “oops paint” at any hardware store. It’s simply paint that they messed up on, or someone never picked up, etc. I found these at my local Home Depot today:
50 cents per jar! Pretty sweet deal
$3.00 for all of this! Sure, I probably wouldn’t be able to paint a large piece of furniture with any of these colors but for smaller items, projects, etc. they are perfect.
Check out the “oops paint” section in your local hardware store!

Kigali court ruling - in the name of the Rwandan people?
Rwanda's Supreme Court has approved a change to the constitution which will allow President Paul Kagame to run for a third term. This does not bode well for democracy in Rwanda, says Dirke Köpp.
Right until the last moment, Rwanda observers had been hoping that, despite all the odds, the judges of the country's Supreme Court would rule in favor of the opposition Green Party which had objected to the bid by President Paul Kagame to amend the constution, thereby enabling him to run for a third term in office.
Kagame has been president since 2000. In 1994, he marched into Kigali with his Tutsi rebels to end the genocide which had cost the lives of more than 800,000 Rwandans. In 2003 und 2010 he was elected for full terms in a regular manner. Under the existing constitution, after two periods of seven years in office, he would not be eligible to run again in the next elections in 2017.

DW's Dirke Köpp
But now, following the Supreme Court ruling, the way is open for him. First, Rwandans will vote on the planned change to the constitution. Thanks to a well organized security apparatus and spy system, it can be expected that few Rwandans will dare not to vote in favor. The risk of being stigmatized or isolated is too high. However Kagame is taking care that the constutitonal amendment should look as if it has the full backing of the population.
Kagame rules with an iron hand, yet he is popular with many Rwandans and with international donors. They see him as a guarantor for peace and stability in the region, as he brought peace after the genocide and revived the economy. But the price is high. The media are gagged, political opposition is almost non-existent. Critics are silenced or forced to go into exile. There have been several attacks against former confidants of Kagame, such as the former intelligence chief Patrick Karegeya who was killed in South Africa in early 2014, or former army chief Kayumba Nyamwasa. The cases were never solved. The judicial system is also under pressure and has little freedom, as the Supreme Court ruling shows. This is not a good record for a country that wishes to present itself as a democracy.
Independent of Kagame, a change to the number of times a president may hold office would have far-reaching consequences. It would be valid not only for him but for every president who follows.
The ruling will elicit great interest in neighboring countries, since there are several presidents in central Africa who would like to stay in power for longer. In Congo, President Denis Sassou Nguesso announced at the start of the week that a referendum would be held on amending the constitution and on ending the limitation of presidential mandates. Joseph Kabila, on the other side of the river, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, also wants to remain president for as long as possible. While in Burundi, President Pierre Nkurunziza has simply ignored the fact that a third period in office is unconstitutional - and for months the country has been sinking into chaos and violence.
