The term serf, in the sense of an unfree peasant of tsarist Russia, is the usual English-language translation of krepostnoy krest'yanin (крепостной крестьянин) which meant an unfree person who, unlike a slave, historically could be sold only together with the land to which they were "attached". However, this stopped being a requirement by the 19th century, and serfs were practically indistinguishable from slaves. Contemporary legal documents, such as Russkaya Pravda (12th century onwards), distinguished several degrees of feudal dependency of peasants. While another form of slavery in Russia, kholopstvo, was ended by Peter I in 1723, the serfdom (krepostnoe pravo) was abolished only by Alexander II's emancipation reform of 1861.
Serfdom became the dominant form of relation between Russian peasants and nobility in the 17th century. Serfdom most commonly existed in the central and southern areas of the Tsardom of Russia and, from 1721, of the subsequent Russian Empire. Serfdom in Little Russia (parts of today's central Ukraine), and other Cossack lands, in the Urals and in Siberia generally occurred rarely until, during the reign of Catherine the Great (r. 1762–1796), it spread to Ukraine; noblemen began to send their serfs into Cossack lands in an attempt to harvest their extensive untapped natural resources.
Only the Russian state and Russian noblemen had the legal right to own serfs, but in practice commercial firms sold Russian serfs as slaves – not only within Russia but even abroad (especially into Persia and the Ottoman Empire) as "students or servants". Those "students and servants" were in fact owned by rich people, sometimes even by rich serfs, who were not noblemen. Emperor Nicholas I banned the trade of African slaves in 1842, though there were almost no Russians who participated in it, but Russian serfs were still sold and bought.
Emperor Alexander I (r. 1801–1825) wanted to reform the system but moved cautiously, liberating serfs in Estonia (1816), Livonia (1816), and Courland (1817) only. New laws allowed all classes (except the serfs) to own land, a privilege previously confined to the nobility. Emperor Alexander II abolished serfdom in the emancipation reform of 1861, a few years later than Austria and other German states. Scholars have proposed multiple overlapping reasons to account for the abolition, including fear of a large-scale revolt by the serfs, the government's financial needs, changing cultural sensibilities, and the military's need for soldiers.
The term muzhik, or moujik (Russian: мужи́к, IPA: [mʊˈʐɨk]) means "Russian peasant" when it is used in English.[clarification needed] This word was borrowed from Russian into Western languages through translations of 19th-century Russian literature, describing Russian rural life of those times, and where the word muzhik was used to mean the most common rural dweller – a peasant – but this was only a narrow contextual meaning.
The origins of serfdom in Russia (крепостничество, krepostnichestvo) may be traced to the 12th century, when the exploitation of the so-called zakups on arable lands (ролейные (пашенные) закупы, roleyniye (pashenniye) zakupy) and corvée smerds (Russian term for corvée is барщина, barschina) was the closest to what is now known as serfdom. According to the Russkaya Pravda, a princely smerd had limited property and personal rights and his escheat was given to the prince.
From the 13th century to the 15th century Edit
From the 13th century to the 15th century, feudal dependency applied to a significant number of peasants, but serfdom as we know it was still not a widespread phenomenon. In the mid-15th century the right of certain categories of peasants in some votchinas to leave their master was limited to a period of one week before and after Yuri's Day (November 26). The Sudebnik of 1497 officially confirmed this time limit as universal for everybody and also established the amount of the "break-away" fee called pozhiloye (пожилое). The legal code of Ivan III of Russia, Sudebnik (1497), strengthened the dependency of peasants, statewide, and restricted their mobility. The Russians persistently battled against the successor states of the Golden Horde, chiefly the Khanate of Crimea. Annually the Russian population of the borderland suffered from Tatar invasions and slave raids and tens of thousands of noblemen protected the southern borderland (a heavy burden for the state), which slowed its social and economic development and expanded the taxation of peasantry.
Transition to full serfdom Edit
The Sudebnik of 1550 increased the amount of pozhiloye and introduced an additional tax called za povoz (за повоз, or transportation fee), in case a peasant refused to bring the harvest from the fields to his master. A temporary (Заповедные лета, or forbidden years) and later an open-ended prohibition for peasants to leave their masters was introduced by the ukase of 1597 under the reign of Boris Godunov, which took away the peasants' right to free movement around Yuri's Day, binding the vast majority of the Russian peasantry in full serfdom. These also defined the so-called fixed years (Урочные лета, urochniye leta), or the 5-year time frame for search of the runaway peasants. In 1607, a new ukase defined sanctions for hiding and keeping the runaways: the fine had to be paid to the state and pozhiloye – to the previous owner of the peasant.
The Sobornoye Ulozhenie (Соборное уложение, "Code of Law") of 1649 gave serfs to estates, and in 1658, flight was made a criminal offense. Russian landowners eventually gained almost unlimited ownership over Russian serfs. The landowner could transfer the serf without land to another landowner while keeping the serf's personal property and family; however, the landowner had no right to kill the serf. About four-fifths of Russian peasants were serfs according to the censuses of 1678 and 1719; free peasants remained only in the north and north-east of the country.
Most of the dvoryane (nobles) were content with the long time frame for search of the runaway peasants. The major landowners of the country, however, together with the dvoryane of the south, were interested in a short-term persecution due to the fact that many runaways would usually flee to the southern parts of Russia. During the first half of the 17th century the dvoryane sent their collective petitions (челобитные, chelobitniye) to the authorities, asking for the extension of the "fixed years". In 1642, the Russian government established a 10-year limit for search of the runaways and 15-year limit for search for peasants taken away by their new owners.
The Sobornoye Ulozhenie introduced an open-ended search for those on the run, meaning that all of the peasants who had fled from their masters after the census of 1626 or 1646–1647 had to be returned. The government would still introduce new time frames and grounds for search of the runaways after 1649, which applied to the peasants who had fled to the outlying districts of the country, such as regions along the border abatises called zasechniye linii (засечные линии) (ukases of 1653 and 1656), Siberia (ukases of 1671, 1683 and 1700), Don (1698) etc. The dvoryane constantly demanded that the search for the runaways be sponsored by the government. The legislation of the second half of the 17th century paid much attention to the means of punishment of the runaways.
Serfdom was hardly efficient; serfs and nobles had little incentive to improve the land. However, it was politically effective. Nobles rarely challenged the tsar for fear of provoking a peasant uprising. Serfs were often given lifelong tenancy on their plots, so they tended to be conservative as well. The serfs took little part in uprisings against the empire as a whole; it was the Cossacks and nomads who rebelled initially and recruited serfs into rebel armies. But many landowners died during serf uprisings against them. The revolutions of 1905 and 1917 happened after serfdom's abolition.
There were numerous rebellions against this bondage, most often in conjunction with Cossack uprisings, such as the uprisings of Ivan Bolotnikov (1606–1607), Stenka Razin (1667–1671), Kondraty Bulavin (1707–1709) and Yemelyan Pugachev (1773–1775). While the Cossack uprisings benefited from disturbances among the peasants, and they in turn received an impetus from Cossack rebellion, none of the Cossack movements were directed against the institution of serfdom itself. Instead, peasants in Cossack-dominated areas became Cossacks during uprisings, thus escaping from the peasantry rather than directly organizing peasants against the institution. Rich Cossacks owned serfs themselves. Between the end of Pugachev's Rebellion and the beginning of the 19th century, there were hundreds of outbreaks across Russia, and there was never a time when the peasantry was completely quiescent.
Slaves and serfs Edit
As a whole, serfdom both came and remained in Russia much later than in other European countries. Slavery remained a legally recognized institution in Russia until 1723, when Peter the Great abolished slavery and converted the slaves into serfs. This was relevant more to household slaves because Russian agricultural slaves were formally converted into serfs earlier in 1679.
Formal conversion to serf status and the later ban on the sale of serfs without land did not stop the trade in household slaves; this trade merely changed its name. The private owners of the serfs regarded the law as a mere formality. Instead of "sale of a peasant" the papers would advertise "servant for hire" or similar.
By the eighteenth century, the practice of selling serfs without land had become commonplace. Owners had absolute control over their serfs' lives, and could buy, sell and trade them at will, giving them as much power over serfs as Americans had over chattel slaves, though owners did not always choose to exercise their powers over serfs to the fullest extent.
The official estimate is that 23 million Russians were privately owned, 18.3 million were in state ownership and another 900,000 serfs were under the Tsar's patronage (udelnye krestiane) before the Great Emancipation of 1861.
One particular source of indignation in Europe was Kolokol published in London, England (1857–65) and Geneva (1865–67). It collected many cases of horrendous physical, emotional and sexual abuse of the serfs by the landowners.
Eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Edit
Peter III created two measures in 1762 that influenced the abolition of serfdom. He ended mandatory military service for nobles with the abolition of compulsory noble state service. This provided a rationale to end serfdom. Second, was the secularization of the church estates, which transferred its peasants and land to state jurisdiction. In 1775 measures were taken by Catherine II to prosecute estate owners for the cruel treatment of serfs. These measures were strengthened in 1817 and the late 1820s. There were even laws that required estate owners to help serfs in time of famine, which included grain to be kept in reserve. These policies failed to aid famines in the early nineteenth century due to estate owner negligence.
Tsar Alexander I and his advisors quietly discussed the options at length. Obstacles included the failure of abolition in Austria and the political reaction against the French Revolution. Cautiously, he freed peasants from Estonia and Latvia and extended the right to own land to most classes of subjects, including state-owned peasants, in 1801 and created a new social category of "free agriculturalist", for peasants voluntarily emancipated by their masters, in 1803. The great majority of serfs were not affected.
The Russian state also continued to support serfdom due to military conscription. The conscripted serfs dramatically increased the size of the Russian military during the war with Napoleon. With a larger military Russia achieved victory in the Napoleonic Wars and Russo-Persian Wars; this did not change the disparity between Russia and Western Europe, who were experiencing agricultural and industrial revolutions. Compared to Western Europe it was clear that Russia was at an economic disadvantage. European philosophers during the Age of Enlightenment criticized serfdom and compared it to medieval labor practices which were almost non-existent in the rest of the continent. Most Russian nobles were not interested in change toward western labor practices that Catherine the Great proposed. Instead they preferred to mortgage serfs for profit. Napoleon did not touch serfdom in Russia. In 1820, 20% of all serfs were mortgaged to state credit institutions by their owners. This was increased to 66% in 1859.
Bourgeois were allowed to own serfs 1721–62 and 1798–1816; this was to encourage industrialisation. In 1804, 48% of Russian factory workers were serfs, 52% in 1825. Landless serfs rose from 4.14% in 1835 to 6.79% in 1858. They received no land in the emancipation. Landlords deliberately increased the number of domestic serfs when they anticipated serfdom's demise. In 1798, Ukrainian landlords were banned from selling serfs apart from land. In 1841, landless nobles were banned also.
Increasingly in the 18th century Russian peasants were escaping from Russia to the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth (where once harsh serfdom conditions were improving) in significant enough numbers to become a major concern for the Russian Government and sufficient to play a role in its decision to partition the Commonwealth (one of the reasons Catherine II gave for the partition of Poland was the fact that thousands of peasants escaped from Russia to Poland to seek a better fate".) Until the partitions solved this problem, Russian armies raided territories of the Commonwealth, officially to recover the escapees, but in fact kidnapping many locals.
In 1816, 1817, and 1819, serfdom was abolished in Estland, Courland, and Livonia respectively. However all the land stayed in noble hands and labor rent lasted till 1868. It was replaced with landless laborers and sharecropping (halbkörner). Landless workers had to ask permission to leave an estate.
The nobility was too weak to oppose the emancipation of the serfs. In 1820, a fifth of the serfs were mortgaged, half by 1842. By 1859, a third of noble's estates and two thirds of their serfs were mortgaged to noble banks or the state. The nobility was also weakened by the scattering of their estates, lack of primogeniture, and the high turnover and mobility from estate to estate.
The Tsar's aunt Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna played a powerful role backstage in the years 1855 to 1861. Using her close relationship with her nephew Alexander II, she supported and guided his desire for emancipation, and helped mobilize the support of key advisors.
In 1861, Alexander II freed all serfs[clarification needed] in a major agrarian reform, stimulated in part by his view that "it is better to liberate the peasants from above" than to wait until they won their freedom by risings "from below".
Serfdom was abolished in 1861, but its abolition was achieved on terms not always favorable to the peasants and served to increase revolutionary pressures. Between 1864 and 1871 serfdom was abolished in Georgia. In Kalmykia serfdom was abolished only in 1892.
The serfs had to work for the landlord as usual for two years. The nobles kept nearly all the meadows and forests, had their debts paid by the state while the ex serfs paid 34% over the market price for the shrunken plots they kept. This figure was 90% in the northern regions, 20% in the black earth region but zero in the Polish provinces. In 1857, 6.79% of serfs were domestic, landless servants who stayed landless after 1861. Only Polish and Romanian domestic serfs got land. 90% of the serfs who got larger plots were in Congress Poland where the Tsar wanted to weaken the szlachta. The rest were in the barren north and in Astrakhan. In the whole Empire, peasant land declined 4.1%, 13.3% outside the ex Polish zone and 23.3% in the 16 black earth provinces. These redemption payments were not abolished till January 1, 1907.
A 2018 study in the American Economic Review found "substantial increases in agricultural productivity, industrial output, and peasants' nutrition in Imperial Russia as a result of the abolition of serfdom in 1861".
Serf society Edit
Labour and obligations Edit
In Russia, the terms barshchina (барщина) or boyarshchina (боярщина), refer to the obligatory work that the serfs performed for the landowner on his portion of the land (the other part of the land, usually of a poorer quality, the peasants could use for themselves). Sometimes the terms are loosely translated by the term corvée. While no official government regulation to the extent of barshchina existed, a 1797 ukase by Paul I of Russia described a barshchina of three days a week as normal and sufficient for the landowner's needs.
In the black earth region, 70% to 77% of the serfs performed barshchina; the rest paid levies (obrok).
Marriage and family life Edit
The Russian Orthodox Church had many rules regarding marriage that were strictly observed by the population. For example, marriage was not allowed to take place during times of fasting, the eve or day of a holiday, during the entire week of Easter, or for two weeks after Christmas. Before the abolition of serfdom in 1861, marriage was strictly prohibited on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Because of these firm rules most marriages occurred in the months of January, February, October, and November. After the emancipation the most popular marrying months were July, October, and November.
Imperial laws were very particular with the age in which serfs could marry. The minimum age to marry was 13 years old for women, and 15 for men. After 1830 the female and male ages were raised to 16 and 18 respectively. To marry over the age of 60, the serf had to receive permission, but marriage over the age of 80 was forbidden. The Church also did not approve marriages with large age differences.
Landowners were interested in keeping all of their serfs and not losing workers to marriages on other estates. Prior to 1812 serfs were not allowed to marry serfs from other estates. After 1812 the rules relaxed slightly, but in order for a family to give their daughter to a husband in another estate they had to apply and present information to their landowner ahead of time. If a serf wanted to marry a widow, then emancipation and death certificates were to be handed over and investigated for authenticity by their owner before a marriage could take place.
Before and after the abolition of serfdom, Russian peasant families were patriarchal. Marriage was important for families economically and socially. Parents were in charge of finding suitable spouses for their children in order to help the family. The bride's parents were concerned with the social and material benefits they would gain in the alliance between the two families. Some also took into consideration their daughter's future quality of life and how much work would be required of her. The groom's parents would be concerned about economical factors such as the size of the dowry as well as the bride's decency, modesty, obedience, ability to do work, and family background. Upon marriage, the bride came to live with her new husband and his family, so she needed to be ready to assimilate and work hard.
Serfs looked highly upon early marriage because of increased parental control. At a younger age there is less chance of the individual falling in love with someone other than whom his or her parents chose. There is also increased assurance of chastity, which was more important for women than men. The average age of marriage for women was around 19 years old.
During serfdom, when the head of the house was being disobeyed by their children they could have the master or landowner step in. After the emancipation of serfs in 1861, the household patriarch lost some of his power, and could no longer receive the landowner's help. The younger generations now had the freedom to work off their estates; some even went to work in factories. These younger peasants had access to newspapers and books, which introduced them to more radical ways of thinking. The ability to work outside of the household gave the younger peasants independence as well as a wage to do with what they wanted. Agricultural and domestic jobs were a group effort, so the wage went to the family. The children who worked industrial jobs gave their earnings to their family as well, but some used it as a way to gain a say in their own marriages. In this case some families allowed their sons to marry whom they chose as long as the family was in similar economic standing as their own. No matter what, parental approval was required in order to make a marriage legal.
Distribution of property and duties between the spouses Edit
According to a study completed in the late 1890s by the ethnographer Olga Petrovna Semyonova-Tian-Shanskaia, husband and wife had different duties in the household. In regards to ownership, the husband assumed the property plus any funds required to make additions to the property. Additions included fence, barns, and wagons. While primary purchasing power belonged to the husband, the wife was expected to buy certain items. She was also expected to buy household items such as bowls, plates, pots, barrels and various utensils. Wives were also required to purchase cloth and make clothes for the family by spinning and using a dontse. Footwear was the husband's responsibility - he made bast shoes and felt boots for the family. As for crops, it was expected for men to sow and women to harvest. A common crop harvested by serfs in the Black Earth Region was flax. Husbands owned most of the livestock, such as pigs and horses. Cows were the property of the husband, but were usually in the wife's possession. Chickens were considered to be the wife's property, while sheep was common property for the family. The exception was when the wife owned sheep through a dowry (sobinki).
Material culture Edit
A 19th-century report noted: "Every Russian peasant, male and female, wears cotton clothes. The men wear printed shirts and trousers, and the women are dressed from head to foot in printed cotton also."
The extent of serfdom in Russia Edit
By the mid-19th century, peasants composed a majority of the population, and according to the census of 1857, the number of private serfs was 23.1 million out of 62.5 million citizens of the Russian empire, 37.7% of the population.
The exact numbers, according to official data, were: entire population 60909309; peasantry of all classes 49486665; state peasants 23138191; peasants on the lands of proprietors 23022390; peasants of the appanages and other departments 3326084. State peasants were considered personally free, but their freedom of movement was restricted.
Russian serfdom depended entirely on the traditional and extensive technology of the peasantry. Yields remained low and stationary throughout most of the 19th century. Any increase in income drawn from agriculture was largely through increasing land area and extensive grain raising by means of exploitation of the peasant labor, that is, by burdening the peasant household still further.
|No. of serfs||in 1777 (%)||in 1859 (%)|
% peasants enserfed in each province, 1860
In the Central Black Earth Region 70–77% of the serfs performed labour services (barshchina), the rest paid rent (obrok). Owing to the high fertility, 70% of Russian cereal production in the 1850s was here. In the seven central provinces, 1860, 67.7% of the serfs were on obrok.
In literature, Russian serfdom provided both a backdrop and a source of dramatic tension for the works of prominent authors like Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky. Characters drawn from the serf population were portrayed with profound emotional depth, their stories shedding light on the harsh realities of serfdom. These narratives served to amplify calls for social reform and underscored the deep inequalities of the Russian societal structure.
The influence of serfdom was also notable in Russian music and art. Folk songs and dances, often performed by serfs, contributed significantly to Russia's unique cultural tradition. At the same time, works of art often depicted serfs and their lives, either romanticizing their existence or highlighting the cruelty of the serfdom system.

For the calcium chloride desiccant just purchased, we need to check whether the desiccant is sealed and packaged, because the calcium chloride desiccant mainly absorbs moisture in the air for drying, and its absorption capacity will be more obvious. Therefore, after receiving the desiccant, it is necessary to immediately check whether it is sealed or whether the sealed package is damaged during transportation. Now most of them are delivered through logistics. It is difficult to avoid collision during transportation, resulting in the rupture of the packaging bag. If this kind of situation occurs, the desiccant should be checked immediately for moisture. If it is serious, it should be communicated with the factory.
After checking whether the desiccant is damaged or damped, we can start packaging the product. First open the desiccant packaging film, take out the calcium chloride desiccant, quickly put it into the product to be packaged and immediately seal the product, so as to prevent the desiccant from being exposed to the air for a long time, which will affect the absorption of the desiccant.
After the product is put into the desiccant for sealed packaging, we also need to check the packaging of the product to see if there is any scratch on the outside and whether the sealing is tight, because if the packaging is damaged or not sealed well, it cannot be effectively isolated from the outside air, and the moisture in the air will continue to enter, leading to the saturation failure of the desiccant, and finally the product will be affected by moisture.
After the goods are packed, the remaining desiccant shall be sealed and packed. It cannot be stored at will. If it is collected at will without sealing treatment, it will be found that the desiccant has been in the form of gel when it is used next time, which will cause unnecessary losses. | <urn:uuid:036135b8-c37f-4446-afcd-49defa27481e> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://en.taiwdry.com/news/90.html | 2023-09-29T23:55:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.944672 | 396 |

Bowdoinham is a town in Sagadahoc County, Maine, United States. The population was 3,047 at the 2020 census. It is part of the Portland–South Portland–Biddeford, Maine metropolitan statistical area. The town is located on the west side of Merrymeeting Bay.
Fort Richmond was built upriver in 1719, protecting the area and encouraging British settlement. About 1720, the mouth of the Cathance River was first settled by Captain Gyles Watkins. But during Dummer's War, in the summer of 1723 all buildings in the region were burned and cattle killed by the Norridgewocks and their 250 Indian allies from New France. The Kennebec River region was abandoned. When Gov. William Dummer's Treaty of 1725 brought peace, it was resettled about 1730 by Abraham and Jonas Preble from York.
Litigation from two conflicting claims, however, slowed the town's development. On July 3, 1637, Sir Ferdinando Gorges, the lord proprietor of Maine, had granted this part of New Somersetshire to Sir Richard Edgcumbe of Mount Edgcumbe House, situated at Cremyll in Cornwall, England. But the Kennebec Company conveyed it in 1752 to William Bowdoin of Boston, older brother of James Bowdoin. The contested ownership went to court, whereupon Bowdoin won because Edgcumbe's grant was found obsolete and indefinite. On September 18, 1762, the Massachusetts General Court incorporated it as Bowdoinham, named for William Bowdoin. It originally included Richmond, set off in 1823, and portions of Topsham and the Plantation of West Bowdoinham, set off in 1788 as Bowdoin.
Farmers grew apples, wheat, hay and potatoes. They also raised sheep. Shipbuilding was an important early industry which faded over time, with the first vessel launched in 1768, and the last of any size in 1912. By 1886, the town had three sawmills, a gristmill, plaster mill, two clothing factories, a cheese factory and about a dozen ice companies. It also produced boots and shoes, tinware, carriages and harness. Once a site of wharves to ship lumber and other goods, Cathance Landing became the town's business center called Bowdoinham Village.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 39.20 square miles (101.53 km2), of which 34.40 square miles (89.10 km2) is land and 4.80 square miles (12.43 km2) is water. Situated beside Merrymeeting Bay, Bowdoinham is drained by the Cathance River, Abagadasset River, Muddy River and Kennebec River.

There are indications Nigerians will be able to leverage eNaira for investment purposes in the near future even though the central bank digital currency (CBDC) was created solely for financial transactions.
At the sensitisation and activation session with Oshodi market leaders, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) team leader, Yusuf Jelil, said the regulator has given financial technology (fintech) firms to explore the possibility of creating investment products around the digital currency, which Nigerians could key into for wealth creation.
Jelil, however, said such products would be approved by the apex bank before they are rolled out. He did not give details about the likely investment opportunities but said the CBN would wait on the techies to come up with their initiatives.
He spoke on some of the ongoing plans to make eNaira accessible to average Nigerians, saying the app is awaiting an update that will enable users to transfer money from their bank accounts to wallets with the use of unstructured supplementary service data (USSD).
The regulator had earlier disclosed that USSD was part of the grand plan to drive the adoption in rural communities and areas where poor Internet connectivity.
Also speaking at yesterday’s event, the Lagos Branch Controller, Barry Toyor, promised that the bank would protect users of the digital currency and ensure that nobody loses a kobo from their wallets. He said the value involved in a transaction is received instantly, giving it an edge over other platforms.
He urged traders to see eNaira as their “reliable and secured” media for sending and receiving money, including cross-border financial transactions.
According to him, Oshodi was chosen for the partnership owing to its centrality and diversity “meaning that we can reach other markets and individuals of different backgrounds across the country through this effort”.
Obinna Umeh, one of the market leaders, is hopeful eNaira will reduce disputes over failed transactions, which he said the “trader associations spend much of their time settling. And if we get it right in Oshodi, other markets will follow this is central to other markets in Lagos.”
The CBN team, market leaders and Bizi Mobile, a vendor to CBN on eNaira, discussed the modality of signing and enlisting traders as agents under the vendor scheme of the CBDC rollout programme. This, Dr. Aminu Bizi, the chief executive of Bizi Mobile, said would speak up about the adoption rate. | <urn:uuid:037f91bc-64ce-4468-aa40-d97fe2034373> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://enairaonlinenews.com/fintechs-to-explore-enaira-for-investment-options-business-the-guardian-nigeria-news-nigeria-and-world-news/ | 2023-09-29T22:42:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.964127 | 526 |
Kumogakure’s very own rapping shinobi, also known as the crucial character who helped Naruto use the Nine-tails’ chakra: Killer Bee, the Eight-tailed Jinchuuriki. Here are the 8 stages of Killer Bee’s power levels.
EEvery raikage has a bodyguard, who also serves as his tag team partner. A test was conducted to determine the candidates capable of performing a double Lariat and chopping a dummy head. Among all the candidates, Bee was found to be successfully compatible with Ay.
2. GENIN TO CHUNIN
Bee proved to be a talented shinobi for his age. Eventually, he was decided to become the next Jinchuuriki for the Eight-tailed beast. Ay would soon take Bee to the falls of truth. There, Bee was trained to take control and befriend the Eight-tailed beast named Gyuki. Just like Naruto and Gaara, he was ridiculed for being a Jinchuuriki. In the end, Bee strived to be the best he can be.
3. THIRD GREAT NINJA WAR
During this time, Bee and Ay encountered Konohagakure’s Yellow flash, Minato Namikaze. Minato was able to outperform them in terms of speed. However, Bee managed to react in time in response to his attacks. During their confrontation, Minato complemented Bee, deeming him to be a true shinobi killer.
4. KILLER BEE BASE LEVEL
Years later, Bee is seen with seven swords. During the attempt to capture him, he used the seven swords stance against Sasuke. Impressively enough, even Sasuke’s Sharingan at that time could not keep up with Bee’s movement. At the base level, he can beat the Raikage’s Lariat.
5. JINCHUURIKI V1
At this state, Gyuki’s chakra surrounded Bee, giving him enhanced speed and power. He also used Lariat against Sasuke and destroyed his chest. If it weren’t for Jugo, Sasuke would have surely died.
6. Jinchuuriki V2
Version 2 allowed Bee to use a tailed beast bomb. It empowered him and his Lariat more by adding a skeleton on his arm.
7. Hybrid Form
Bee was able to bring out the eight tentacles of Gyuki and transform his arm into that of the beast’s.
8. EIGHT-TAILED BEAST FORM
Bee had fully transformed into the Eight-tailed beast, making him more capable of creating bigger-tailed beast bombs. During the battle against the 6 Jinchuurikis with Naruto, he used his tentacles to form a tornado, which significantly caused damage to the forest.

Kelowna, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – September 13, 2023) – Enertopia Corporation (OTCQB: ENRT) (CSE: ENRT) (“Enertopia” or the “Company”) a company focused on building shareholder value through a combination of our Nevada lithium claims, intellectual property, & pending patents in the green technology space, is very pleased to provide the following CEO Letter.
As we move into our Fiscal Year 2024, now seems to be a good time to review the past year and look forward with excitement to what’s ahead.
During our FY 2023 we continued to make big strides in moving our WT Lithium Project forward with the completion of our second drill program in two years. We commissioned our inaugural 43-101 Technical Resource Report, which we are eagerly awaiting to see and share with all stake holders.
Our neighbors in the area, American Lithium, who are just over one mile to the north – just announced they are working on updating their cost analysis of their TLC project in which they will be providing an update to their PEA (Preliminary Economic Assessment). Additionally, our neighbors American Battery Technology Company, who are directly west of us, just announced on September 6th, 2023 the contract for a $57M Grant from US DOE (Department of Energy) which will allow for the Construction of a Commercial-Scale Lithium Hydroxide Refinery in Tonopah, NV.
These developments, by admittingly much larger players in the lithium industry, further prove that Enertopia’s WT lithium project is in an excellent location and is very prospective for potential future development.
On the Technology side, we have now entered or are entering the rebuttal phase with the USPTO (United States Patent Trademark Office) and expect that by the end of FY 2024 the Company could know the final patent status of all four current non provisional patents. For a refresh the four non provisional patents are listed below by filing date:
Solar Energy Collector System USPTO # 17/751,300 filed on May 23, 2022.
Applications where process heat needs to be generated, can be installed behind PV panels or in glazed stand-alone PVT panels for process heat
Heat Recovery System USPTO # 17/751/305 filed on May 23, 2022.
Locations around the World where heat stress needs to be reduced on PV systems to increase system performance and longevity, increasing value of Carbon Credits
Water Producing System For A Liquid Transfer Mat USPTO # 17/888,320 filed on August 15, 2022.
Our analysis shows that depending on time and place during the year key locations in the world are potentially capable of producing 2.45 gallons to over 4 gallons of water per hour per 80″ x 40″ PV panel during peak atmospheric conditions.
Energy Management System USPTO # 17,979,696 filed on November 2, 2022.

Stanislaw Lem’s works can be roughly divided into fiction, essays, apocrypha (texts about non-existent texts) and complains about the literary critique. It may seem strange that a popular writer, whose books have been published all over the world, grieved that reviews did not do him justice. Over time, on both sides of the Iron Curtain enthusiastic, in-depth, competent articles started to appear, such as the extensive texts of „The New York Times Book Review”. However there were few general overviews combining elements shared by a number of works and presenting universal attributes of Lem’s literary output. Most lemologists — usually humanists — were somewhat crestfallen by the spectrum of knowledge and erudition of an author who „like an intellectual bulldozer with astonishing ease dug through all possible fields of human cognition”1. Lem’s reception was also disturbed by the stigmatizing „science fiction” label.
Chlorian Theoreticus the Proph, a character from Lem’s „Tale of the Three Storytelling Machines of King Genius,” is an ironically bitter self-portrait2 of the author himself — a writer and thinker ignored and underestimated by his contemporaries. The unfortunate Chlorian created works of art „saturated with the absolute,” brilliant masterpieces reaching the very core of the essence of things. After the (self) publication of his first book the philosopher expected to be welcomed by enthusiastic crowds:
As soon as this treatise appeared in print (at my own expense), I rushed out into the street, certain that the people would lift me up on their shoulders, crown me with garlands, shower me with gold, but no one, not even so much as a lame cybernerian, approached with words of praise.
As befitted a true sage, Chlorian initially accepted failure philosophically:
‚My time will come!’ I told myself. ‚It cannot be, for someone to cast forth pearls of eternal wisdom left and right, day and night, till the mind is blinded by the surging Light of Final Understanding—and nothing! No, fame will be mine, acclaim will be mine, thrones of ivory, the title of Prime Mentorian, the love of the people, sweet solace in a shaded grove, my very own school, pupils that hang on every word, and a cheering crowd!’
Undeterred Chlorian produced more staggeringly philosophical works — also ignored. Over the years bitterness and discouragement settled in, while all honors went to royal favorites, whose shallow and worthless output the readers seemed to prefer:
You see, I would occasionally purchase the works of other sages, who enjoyed great riches and the sweets of success, to learn what sort of things they wrote about. Well, they wrote about the difference between the front and the rear, about the wondrous structure of the Tyrant’s throne, its sweeping arms and all-enduring legs, and tracts about good manners, and detailed descriptions of this and that, during which no one ever praised himself in any way, and yet it worked out somehow that Phrensius stood in awe of Schneckon, and Schneckon of Phrensius, while both were lauded by the Logarites.
What was the later fate of Chlorian (aka Lem)? Lem wrote „Tale of the Three Storytelling Machines of King Genius” (from “The Cyberiad”) at the beginning of the 1960s, on the threshold of his international fame. His books were published in over forty languages, their joint print-run exceeded thirty million copies. Half a century later, when even Google paid a tribute to Lem with an interactive Doodle (that was one fine Doodle, which captivated Lem’s fans all over the world) it seems that it didn’t turn out that bad after all…

2. Chlorian Theoreticus the Proph is me in about 60%, dear Sir, i.e. it describes my condition of „general obscurity” (“Fame and Fortune. Stanisław Lem’s letters to Michael Kandel”, Wydawnictwo Literackie, Kraków 2013, p. 49) | <urn:uuid:d1ac6b31-7f6e-4452-b5e6-548e1f964b95> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://english.lem.pl/blog/chlorian-theoreticus-the-proph/ | 2023-09-29T22:34:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.950008 | 931 |
It seems like we eat the same old potatoes and drink milk year after year. But in reality the scope of our source of nutrition expands all the time. In ancient times people in Russia knew nothing about potatoes and corn. Today large stores offer a wide selection of exotic fruit and vegetables – guava, mangosteen, avocado, etc. Russian restaurants serve frogs, turtles and kangaroos along with traditional beef, pork and lamb. There are also new technologies such as microwaves, genetically modified products and biotechnologies.
All products consumed by people in various countries are edible. There are no foods that could be good for a European but poisonous for an African. However, there are products that must be cooked properly. For example, fugu fish caught in Japan have extremely poisonous internal organs and if not cut and cooked properly, can kill anyone, be they Russian or Japanese.
People in different countries do have different food habits. In China people eat everything, including locust and cockroaches. Majority of Russians would not be ready for such culinary experiments. However, it doesn’t mean they can’t eat such things.
Genetically modified products are also not as dangerous as we believe them to be. Americans ate nearly 500 tons of modified soy, and feel just fine. Genetically modified products have been used in 26 countries since 1996. Russian people are so terrified by genetically modified soy and corn that they are now afraid of regular soy. As a result, sausage in Russia is stuffed with hydrolyzed pig skin instead of wholesome soy protein, and its nutritional value dropped.
Consumers used to be afraid of selection, and now they are afraid of genetic engineering, even though there is no proof that g enetically modified products are dangerous. Consumers do have a right to know what they eat, and all manufactures have to do is to indicate how the product was made.
Another novelty is vitamin-enriched products. They do help to add vitamins to out diet. Before World War II Russians enriched flour that was sent to the Northern regions with vitamin C and iron. Today it’s nearly impossible to obtain all necessary vitamins through simple foods, so the products have to be enriched.
Some enriched foods are better left uncooked. For example, when enriched milk is heated, some vitamins evaporate. As for iodized salt, it depends on the type of iodine. Potassium iodide is a volatile compound, and should be only used in already cooked food, whereas potassium periodate can be used for cooking soups.
Another novelty is instant oatmeal and soups. On the one hand, most nutrition specialists believe that they are not a healthful option. On the other hand, they are a good option when you have little time but need a hot meal. Russian public catering system was destroyed and not replaced with anything. Organizations with less than 80 employees had to have a cafeteria, and those with over 80 employees had to have canteens. Now people don’t have this option and face the choice of either eating a business lunch for 250-300 rubles ($8-$10) or an instant meal for 20 rubles (less than a dollar). Instant meals are not a healthy option, and when they are used for lunch, breakfast and dinner should be homemade meals.
If people do not implement new technologies, the nature will not be able to provide enough food for humanity, because today 800 million people are underfed.
This does not mean that people would start eating pills and powders. Cows can be fed with powders, not people. People will always demand regular, natural food. Homemade foods are healthy not only because they are of better quality, but because it preserves family traditions.

Episode 1: The Birth of a Visionary
Hello our dear listeners! Welcome to the first episode of our captivating audio mini-series, ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi’. Today, we travel back in time to 1869, to a small seaside town of Porbandar, located on the western coast of India. This is where our story begins. This is where Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born.
Young Mohandas, or “Monia” as he was affectionately called, grew up in a devout Hindu family. His father, Karamchand Gandhi, was the chief minister of Porbandar, while his mother, Putlibai, was a deeply pious woman known for her commitment to fasting and prayer. They were a family of modest means, yet rich in tradition and moral values.
Growing up, Gandhi was an average student, shy and introverted, but the values he imbibed during these early years were to be his guiding force in the years to come. His mother’s unwavering dedication to truth and non-violence left a deep impression on young Mohandas, planting the seeds of his later ideologies.
The roots of his spiritual journey began in these early days. His mother introduced him to the concepts of Ahimsa — nonviolence, Bhakti — devotion, and Dharma — duty, which became the cornerstones of his philosophies. Gandhi was also influenced by Jainism, a religion deeply embedded with the idea of non-violence and which was widely practiced in his native state of Gujarat.
Gandhi’s adolescence was not without its fair share of struggles and adventures. As a teenager, he grappled with issues of self-identity, succumbing to peer pressure and indulging in activities such as smoking and stealing, but he was soon consumed by guilt. This guilt led to a heartfelt confession to his father, a moment which marked a turning point in his life. The act of confessing, seeking forgiveness, and the pledge of not repeating the mistake taught him the profound strength of truth.
Gandhi’s early life and the struggles he faced are significant not because they are unique, but because they are common. They are the struggles that each one of us goes through in our lives. And it is from these struggles, these small yet defining moments that Mohandas started his journey towards becoming the Mahatma. It’s through these that we begin to see the first glimmers of the man who would later lead India to her freedom.
At the end of this episode, we are left with a young Gandhi, unformed and yet brimming with potential. As we close this chapter, we begin to see how his childhood laid the groundwork for his future philosophies of truth, non-violence, and moral duty.
Join us in the next episode as we follow Gandhi to the bustling city of London, where he would face new challenges, and embark on a journey of self-discovery. Thank you for joining me in this journey our dear listeners, and I will meet you in our next episode as we continue unraveling ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi’.

Episode 2: In Foreign Lands
Welcome back our dear listeners! I’m Mirai, your host on this enriching journey through the life of Mahatma Gandhi. As we continue to unravel his intriguing tale, we now accompany young Mohandas to the shores of Britain, the land of Shakespeare, Dickens, and the English law he so aspired to study.
It’s 1888, Gandhi, then a naive, 19-year-old lad, bid farewell to his family and homeland to pursue his studies in law at University College London. This was a step out of his comfort zone, a step into the unknown. He was on a voyage to discover not just the nuances of law, but himself.
The city of London was a world apart from the quaint streets of Porbandar and the cultural hub of Bombay. It was a place of possibilities and complexities, of stark contrasts and diverse experiences. The teeming streets, the Victorian architecture, the way of life – everything was an entirely new experience for Gandhi.
The cultural shock he experienced was palpable. He grappled with Western etiquette, the English cuisine, and even the changing weather. Initially, he tried to become an “English gentleman,” buying new suits, taking violin and dance lessons. Yet, he soon realized that these external trappings were not the essence of the Western world or its education.
Over time, he began to embrace the intellectual fervor that London offered. He started attending the sessions at the London Vegetarian Society, where he met people who were interested in issues of health, animal rights, and social reform. It was here that he was first introduced to several religious and philosophical texts, including the Bhagavad Gita, which deeply impacted him and shaped his future ideologies.
Gandhi spent three years in London, years that were transformative, to say the least. The exposure to Western education, the philosophical discourses, the diversity of thoughts and culture, all contributed to his intellectual growth. The quiet, shy young man from Porbandar was evolving, broadening his horizons, yet remaining firmly rooted to his core values of truth and non-violence.
In 1891, Gandhi completed his studies and was called to the bar. He was ready to return home, armed with a law degree and a richer perspective of the world. However, as destiny would have it, his homecoming was bittersweet. He lost his mother while he was away, a piece of news that was intentionally kept from him to avoid disturbing his studies. The grief of his mother’s demise coupled with the inability to find meaningful work as a lawyer in India made him question his purpose and direction.
This episode of our journey ends here, with Gandhi standing at the crossroads of his life. Yet, these experiences, the hardships, and the learnings were all but stepping stones for what was to come next. The stage was set for Gandhi’s next adventure, this time, on the African continent.
Join me in our next episode as we set sail with Gandhi to South Africa, a land where his real political awakening begins. Until then, this is Mirai, from English Plus Series, signing off. Stay tuned, stay inspired!
Episode 3: The Fight Begins in South Africa
Hello our dear listeners! Welcome back to the English Plus Series. I’m Mirai, your host on this mesmerizing journey through the life of Mahatma Gandhi. We’ve traveled with Gandhi from the bylanes of Porbandar to the sprawling city of London. Today, we’re charting a course to a new destination, South Africa, where Gandhi’s journey towards activism truly begins.
In 1893, Gandhi arrived in South Africa on a year-long contract to work as a legal representative for an Indian merchant. Little did he know that this new land, marked by racial discrimination and social injustice, would shape him into the person we remember today.
Gandhi’s first brush with racial discrimination was a deeply shocking event for him. It was during a train journey that he was thrown out of a first-class compartment, despite having a valid ticket. His crime? He was a man of color, an Indian in a society dominated by whites. This incident left an indelible mark on Gandhi and triggered a profound transformation.
South Africa was a wake-up call for Gandhi. He saw the plight of the Indian community, experienced the injustice firsthand. It was here that the lawyer turned into an activist, the activist morphed into a leader, and a new philosophy of resistance was born — Satyagraha.
Satyagraha, derived from Sanskrit, means “holding onto truth” or “truth force.” It was Gandhi’s non-violent method of resistance against injustice. It was a form of civil disobedience based on the law of love, and it embodied his belief that truth would ultimately prevail. Satyagraha was not merely a strategy for political struggle but a method of self-transformation.
The first manifestation of Satyagraha was in 1906, against the oppressive Asiatic Law Amendment Ordinance, which proposed stringent registration rules for Indians in the Transvaal region. Gandhi organized a mass protest meeting, urging Indians not to cooperate with the unjust law. This was a defining moment in Gandhi’s life, marking the beginning of his lifelong commitment to civil disobedience as a means to seek justice.
Gandhi’s time in South Africa spanned two decades, during which he evolved from a briefcase-carrying lawyer to a fearless leader. He fought against racial oppression, leading Indians in a non-violent struggle for their rights. Yet, it wasn’t just about political activism. Gandhi also founded a cooperative community called the Phoenix Settlement, promoting his ideals of self-sufficiency and communal living.
As we conclude this episode, we see Gandhi maturing in his philosophy, and in his understanding of the world. The seeds sown in South Africa will come to fruition in India, guiding its struggle for freedom.
So our dear listeners, join me next time as we continue our journey with Gandhi. We’ll march with him on the Salt path and bear witness to one of the most defining moments of India’s fight for independence. Until then, this is Mirai, your guide on the English Plus Series, signing off. Stay curious, stay enlightened!
Episode 4: The Salt March
Hello our dear listeners! Welcome back to ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi’ on the English Plus Series. I’m your host, Mirai, and today, we journey to one of the pivotal points in India’s struggle for freedom: the iconic Salt March.
The year was 1930. India had been under British rule for more than a century, and the cry for freedom was gaining momentum. Gandhi, having returned to India from South Africa, had taken the reins of the Indian National Congress, advocating for complete independence or “Purna Swaraj.”
Amid this backdrop, Gandhi planned a non-violent act of civil disobedience against the British salt tax, a law that forbade Indians from making their own salt. The simple act of making salt, when pursued en masse, would strike at the economic heart of the British Empire. But, more than that, it symbolized the unjust nature of colonial rule.
On the morning of March 12th, 1930, Gandhi, with a determined group of 78 followers, set off on foot from the Sabarmati Ashram towards the coastal village of Dandi. This was a journey of 240 miles that would take them 24 days to complete.
Along the way, they traversed through villages and towns, addressing large crowds, spreading their message of nonviolent resistance. The march grew in number, with thousands joining in solidarity. It was not merely a march for salt, but a march for freedom, for dignity, for the right to self-rule.
On April 6th, upon reaching the seashore at Dandi, Gandhi Mirait down and picked up a lump of natural salt. This was a direct, yet peaceful, violation of the oppressive British law. This act of defiance sent waves across the world, bringing international attention to India’s struggle for independence.
The Salt March was not just a political act; it was a profound statement on the power of nonviolent resistance. It demonstrated how the simplest of actions, when underpinned by conviction and unity, could challenge an oppressive regime.
In the aftermath of the march, tens of thousands of Indians followed Gandhi’s lead, producing salt themselves and resisting the British rule. The British authorities responded with mass arrests, including that of Gandhi. Yet, the struggle for freedom had reached a point of no return.
As we end this episode, we reflect on the significance of the Salt March. It was a testament to Gandhi’s visionary leadership, his ability to turn a humble act of making salt into a powerful symbol of resistance. This was a pivotal moment in India’s journey towards independence and a testament to the power of the people united in a cause.
Join me in the next episode as we explore the next stage in Gandhi’s journey and his tireless pursuit of freedom and justice. Until then, this is Mirai from English Plus Sonicscape Series, signing off. Keep the spirit of learning alive!
Episode 5: The round Table Conferences
Hello our dear listeners, and welcome back to our compelling series on ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi.’ I’m Mirai, your host on this incredible journey. We’ve witnessed Gandhi’s transformation from a young law student to a beacon of peaceful resistance. Today, we dive into the political arena as we join Gandhi at the Round Table Conferences in London.
Following the Salt March and the subsequent civil disobedience movement, the political climate in India was charged. It was against this backdrop that the Round Table Conferences were organized, with the objective to discuss constitutional reforms in India and pave the way towards a potential self-rule.
The Round Table Conferences took place from 1930 to 1932, in three separate sessions. Gandhi was in prison during the first conference, but the Indian National Congress decided to send him as its sole representative to the second conference in 1931.
So, Gandhi set sail for London once again, this time not as a student, but as the voice of India’s fight for freedom. His mission was clear – to advocate for India’s complete independence and to ensure the representation of the Indian masses in any future governance structure.
In London, Gandhi was a figure of fascination and respect. He stayed in East London, at Kingsley Hall, amidst the city’s poor, reflecting his commitment to live as the common people of India did. His simple lifestyle, traditional Indian attire, and humble demeanor caught the attention of the British public and media.
The Round Table Conference, however, was a different matter. Despite his persuasive arguments for complete independence and equal representation, there was a wide gap in perspectives. The British government was reluctant to loosen its grip, and the discussions reached an impasse.
Gandhi returned to India in December 1931, disillusioned but not defeated. The third and final Round Table Conference took place in 1932 without his participation or that of the Indian National Congress. The talks largely failed to achieve their intended purpose and marked a frustrating chapter in India’s struggle for self-rule.
Yet, despite the lack of political success, Gandhi’s visit to London had a different kind of victory. He brought India’s struggle for independence onto the global stage, making it impossible to ignore. His interactions with the international community highlighted the legitimacy of the Indian freedom movement and gained it global sympathy.
In today’s episode, we witnessed Gandhi’s relentless pursuit of justice and his unshakeable belief in his cause. His journey may have met with obstacles, but his spirit remained unbroken. The struggle for independence continued, with Gandhi at its helm.
Join me in our next episode as we continue our exploration of Gandhi’s life and legacy. We’ll dive into the latter years of his activism and his philosophy of ‘Swaraj’ or self-rule. Until then, this is Mirai from the English Plus Series, signing off. Stay tuned, stay inspired!
Episode 6: The Quit India Movement
Welcome back our dear listeners, to the English Plus Series. I’m Mirai, your guide on this exploration of ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi.’ Today, we take a deep dive into a pivotal moment in India’s struggle for independence – The Quit India Movement.
It’s August 1942. The world is in the throes of the Second World War. India, still under British rule, is indirectly embroiled in the global conflict. The Indian National Congress believes it’s time for the British to “Quit India,” and the stage is set for one of the most significant movements in India’s independence struggle.
The Quit India Movement, also known as the August Movement, was a clarion call for the British to leave India, to end their colonial rule. It was a demand for immediate independence, no more negotiations, no more compromises. The mantra was “Do or Die,” a phrase coined by Gandhi himself, signifying the determination of the Indian people to gain their freedom or perish in the attempt.
Gandhi played a central role in this movement. His speech on the eve of the Quit India Movement stirred the nation. He called upon the people to follow a nonviolent civil disobedience campaign, to shut down businesses, to leave their jobs in civil service, to show the British that India was determined to be free.
The British government, already strained due to the war, was taken by surprise by the movement’s intensity and scale. The response was swift and brutal. Leaders, including Gandhi, were arrested and jailed. The press was censored, protests were met with violence, but the spirit of resistance only grew stronger.
The Quit India Movement didn’t immediately result in independence, but it was a turning point. It demonstrated the unity of the Indian people, their readiness to withstand oppression, and their absolute determination to gain freedom. It signaled to the British, and to the world, that the end of colonial rule in India was near.
As we conclude this episode, we reflect on the resolute spirit of a nation and the leader who championed their cause. Gandhi’s philosophy of nonviolence and truth stayed strong amidst the trials and tribulations of the freedom struggle, a testament to the power of peaceful resistance.
Join me next time as we delve into the final years of British rule in India and witness the dawn of independence. Until then, this is Mirai from English Plus Series, signing off. Keep the spirit of curiosity alive!
Episode 7: The Road to Independence
Welcome back our dear listeners, to the English Plus Series. I’m your host, Mirai, guiding you through ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi.’ Today, we tread on a path filled with anticipation and turmoil, as we explore the final years leading up to India’s independence.
The year is 1946. The end of the Second World War has left the British Empire weakened and economically drained. The winds of change are blowing across the Indian subcontinent. The cries for independence have grown louder, and it’s clear that the days of British rule are numbered.
However, the road to independence is not a smooth one. The Indian subcontinent is divided along religious lines, primarily Hindus and Muslims. There are demands for a separate Muslim nation, leading to the painful decision of partitioning India into two independent nations – India and Pakistan.
Gandhi, a firm believer in unity and harmony, is deeply distressed by the division. He envisages an India where people of all faiths coexist peacefully. The partition and the ensuing communal violence that sweeps across the newly drawn borders are heartbreaking for him.
Yet, even amidst this chaos and violence, Gandhi becomes a beacon of peace. He travels from village to village, city to city, appealing to people to put down their weapons, to reject hatred, to embrace their neighbors irrespective of their faith. His message is simple – peace and harmony are the foundations of a free nation.
Gandhi’s influence is profound. In places like Noakhali in East Miraigal, where communal tensions run high, his presence and his words help calm the situation. His commitment to peace, even in the face of personal danger, is testament to his strength of character and his unwavering belief in non-violence.
On August 15, 1947, at the stroke of midnight, India finally gains her independence. It’s a moment of triumph, of liberation, but it’s also marked by the sorrow of partition and communal strife. Gandhi, the architect of India’s freedom struggle, spends the day fasting and praying for peace.
As we end this episode, we pause to reflect on the dual nature of this period in India’s history – the joy of independence and the pain of partition. Gandhi’s pleas for peace, his tireless efforts to quell the violence, highlight his deep commitment to unity and harmony.
Join me in the next episode as we navigate the post-independence era and the final years of Gandhi’s life. Until then, this is Mirai from English Plus Series, signing off. Stay enlightened, stay inspired!
Episode 8: The Father of the Nation
Welcome back our dear listeners, to the English Plus Series. I’m Mirai, your guide on this journey through ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi.’ As we delve into the eighth episode of our series, we find ourselves in the aftermath of India’s independence, a time of joy, trials, and transformation.
It’s 1947. India has finally thrown off the yoke of British rule and stands as a free nation. Gandhi, who led the nation through decades of peaceful resistance, is now fondly called the “Father of the Nation.” But the task of nation-building in a post-colonial era is fraught with challenges.
The partition of India and Pakistan has left deep scars. Millions of people have been displaced, communities torn apart, and the violence has claimed countless lives. The task of healing these wounds, of fostering unity and rebuilding the nation, is immense.
Gandhi, ever the harbinger of peace and unity, takes up this challenge with the same determination he had shown during the struggle for independence. He continues his travels across the country, appealing for peace and mutual respect amongst the diverse communities of India.
Gandhi also emphasizes the importance of self-sufficiency, particularly in the villages. He believes that a truly independent India will be one where the rural economy is strong, where the villagers are empowered. His vision of “Gram Swaraj,” or village self-rule, becomes a cornerstone of his efforts in nation-building.
Gandhi’s ideals also resonate in the concept of “Sarvodaya,” which means the upliftment of all. He advocates for social equality, for the eradication of untouchability, and for equal rights for all citizens, regardless of caste, religion, or gender.
Gandhi’s vision for India goes beyond political independence. He envisages a nation that is not just free, but also fair, just, and egalitarian. He wants India to set an example for the world, an example of a diverse yet harmonious, self-sufficient yet inclusive, and culturally rich yet forward-looking nation.
As we end this episode, we reflect on Gandhi’s role in nation-building. His contributions transcend the realm of political freedom and delve into the essence of what a free society should embody – unity, equality, self-reliance, and above all, peace.
Join me in the next episode as we delve into the final days of Gandhi’s life, and reflect on his enduring legacy. Until then, this is Mirai from the English Plus Series, signing off. Keep exploring, keep learning!
Episode 9: The Final Days
Welcome back our dear listeners, to the English Plus Series. I’m your host, Mirai, and we continue our exploration of ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi.’ In this penultimate episode, we delve into the final chapter of Gandhi’s life, a period marked by immense sorrow and loss.
It’s early 1948. India, though still grappling with the aftermath of partition, is finding its footing as an independent nation. Gandhi, the “Father of the Nation,” continues his work of promoting peace, unity, and communal harmony.
In these times, Gandhi’s daily routine includes a prayer meeting in the evening at Birla House, his temporary residence in New Delhi. People from all walks of life attend these meetings to listen to his words of wisdom and guidance.
On the fateful evening of January 30, 1948, Gandhi is on his way to his prayer meeting. As he makes his way through the garden of Birla House, a man steps forward and bows. This man is Nathuram Godse, a Hindu nationalist, who harbors a misguided resentment against Gandhi’s efforts to foster Hindu-Muslim unity.
Godse fires three shots at point-blank range. The bullets hit Gandhi, and he collapses, his last words reportedly being “Hey Ram,” an invocation of God. Just like that, the light of peace and non-violence, the “Father of the Nation,” is extinguished.
News of Gandhi’s assassination sends shockwaves through India and the world. The man who had led India to independence through non-violence, who had been a beacon of hope and unity, was no more. Grief engulfs the nation, and tributes pour in from leaders worldwide.
Gandhi’s funeral procession winds its way through the streets of Delhi, a journey of eight kilometers, with close to two million people joining in to pay their respects. His body is cremated at Raj Ghat, now a memorial where people continue to pay homage to this great soul.
As we close this episode, we are reminded of Gandhi’s commitment to peace, to truth, and to non-violence, values he upheld until his final breath. His life was a testament to the power of these ideals, and his legacy continues to inspire generations.
In our final episode, we’ll reflect on this legacy and the global impact of Gandhi’s philosophy. Until then, this is Mirai from the English Plus Series, signing off. Stay inspired, stay curious!
Episode 10: Gandhi's Legacy
Welcome back our dear listeners, to the final episode of our journey through ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi’ in the English Plus Series. I’m Mirai, and today, we reflect on Gandhi’s enduring legacy and the timeless relevance of his teachings.
Mahatma Gandhi may have left us physically, but his spirit, his principles, and his teachings continue to influence and inspire. His philosophy of Satyagraha, or “truth-force,” and Ahimsa, or “non-violence,” have guided numerous movements for civil rights and freedom across the world.
Martin Luther King Jr., a key figure in the American Civil Rights Movement, was profoundly influenced by Gandhi’s philosophy of nonviolent resistance. He applied these principles to the struggle for racial equality in the United States, leading to landmark changes in American society.
Nelson Mandela, who fought against apartheid in South Africa, also drew inspiration from Gandhi’s teachings. Mandela acknowledged that the tactic of non-violent protest remained a key weapon in the fight against racial segregation.
Today, Gandhi’s legacy lives on in the numerous memorials, museums, and institutions dedicated to preserving his memory and teachings. The Gandhi Smriti in New Delhi, Sabarmati Ashram in Ahmedabad, and the National Gandhi Museum, to name a few, are pilgrimage sites for those wishing to learn more about this iconic figure.
In an era marked by conflict and divisions, Gandhi’s teachings retain their relevance. His emphasis on tolerance, mutual respect, and peaceful dialogue are values that the world continues to need. His belief in the power of truth and non-violence serves as a beacon of hope for peaceful resolution of conflicts.
As we conclude our series on ‘The Life of Mahatma Gandhi,’ we are left with a profound appreciation for a man whose life was a message, a message of peace, unity, and truth. Gandhi once said, “My life is my message.” And indeed, his life continues to inspire and guide us towards a world of peace and harmony.
Thank you for joining me on this journey. I’m Mirai, your host from the English Plus Series, signing off until our next exploration. Stay curious, stay inspired, and remember – each one of us can make a difference.

Neurodiversity is something that more employers are becoming aware of. Here at Enna, we work with so many great employers looking to train their workforce or improve their recruitment processes so they don’t miss out on neurodivergent talent. But what does it actually mean?
Neurodiversity is defined as the ‘the range of individual brain function and behavioural traits, regarded as part of normal variation in the human population’. Simply put, it means that neurodivergent brains differ from those that are deemed ‘neurotypical’ but this is completely normal, and should be respected.
Despite an increased awareness of neurodiversity within organisations, recent statistics from the Office for National Statistics show that only 16% of all autistic adults are in employment. These statistics haven’t improved in decades, which shows there is lots to be done to improve the employment prospects of those who identify as neurodivergent.
But what can organisations do? Well, many barriers to hiring and retaining neurodivergent talent occur during the recruitment process. Traditional interview processes and assessments are often built by and built for neurotypical candidates (those that do not have a type of neurodiversity) which means candidates are often assessed on their ability to communicate, their working memory (from researching a company before) and how confident they are. For many neurodivergent candidates, this means they may struggle to compete and miss out on jobs they could be fantastic for.
But what can employers do to make their recruitment processes more friendly to neurodivergent candidates, and break down the barriers once and for all?
1. Review Your Job Descriptions
Job descriptions are often the initial barrier for neurodivergent candidates. But what may employers be doing wrong and how can you improve them?
Use clear and concise language
For some neurodivergent candidates, especially autistic and dyslexic ones, it can be hard to deduce the key bits of information and understand what is being asked of them. By using clear and concise language, it makes sure that neurodivergent candidates can understand the role and the organisation, and decide if they are a good fit.
List key details
Are the key details about the role easy to find? These include the location, the working hours, salary and whether its remote or hybrid working? This can help a candidate decide whether they are a match for the role.
Are the skills listed really essential?
Enna’s experience with employers often shows that many job adverts contain skills that may not be completely essential for the role. These include things like ‘excellent communication skills’ or ‘excellent presentation skills’. In reality, the day to day role may not require these skills, so you may be losing out on neurodivergent candidates.
2. Make sure your careers site is accessible
Many neurodivergent people can experience sensory sensitivities, which means they may be sensitive to different colours, images, movements and sounds. As we all know, websites can be a hive of activity, and many neurodivergent applicants could struggle to access your site and apply for roles.
Using accessibility tools
Its really important to have web accessibility tools available for disabled and neurodivergent candidates. This includes tools such as being able to change the size of the font, the contrast and the colours.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, known as WCAG, are an internationally recognised set of recommendations published by the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). They explain how to make your digital services, websites and apps accessible to everyone. Using these guidelines for your career site can help you understand how applicants engage with your content, ensuring they can easily understand information and apply for your roles.
3. Analyse Your Assessment Procedures
Given the ‘new normal’ that we find ourselves in, employers are increasingly using technology to assess candidates. However, some of these assessment procedures can have a negative impact on neurodivergent candidates. For example, using psychological or psychometric tests can often test candidates on their reading speed and how quickly they can respond to questions.
If using these, its recommended that you analyse your assessments and contact suppliers to understand how they work, and whether they could be creating unnecessary barriers for neurodivergent applicants.
4. Make Your Interviews Inclusive
Traditional interview techniques rely heavily on things like communication, eye contact, confidence and body language, something autistic candidates could experience challenges with. Its important to understand what traits and skills you’re accessing candidates on, and whether they are an essential component to that role.
Keep it skills based
Make sure your interviewers are assessing candidates on how well they can demonstrate the skills needed to do the role, not their body language or eye contact. It may be likely that autistic candidates can experience high levels of anxiety during the interview process, and may find it difficult.
Avoid ‘left field’ questions
Left field questions are questions to catch a candidate off guard, and can be especially difficult for autistic candidates. They can be tricky to answer, and may cause a lot of anxiety for someone neurodivergent. Instead, focus your questions so you are accessing particular skills and that require a clear, concrete answer.
Is a candidate going in the right or wrong direction? Prompt them to explain certain parts of their answers more or stop them if you’ve got what you wanted. This can help focus interviews and keep neurodivergent candidates on track.
Every neurodivergent individual is different, and its important to recognise that there is no ‘one size fits all approach’ when it comes to recruiting neurodivergent employees. Its really important to consider everyones unique strengths and challenges, and tailor your recruitment processes as necessary.
6. Are you looking to recruit neurodiverse talent?

- E-commerce huge Amazon has started screening the use of AI to summarize solution opinions.
- Amazon appears to be to be carrying out a constrained rollout of the characteristic that is showing only in some listings.
- These kinds of merchandise overview summaries could be beneficial in guiding prospects towards newer critiques, for each an Amazon internet marketing agency CTO.
AI has certainly taken in excess of — e-commerce large Amazon has even started off working with the technology to summarize item opinions on its web-site.
The AI-created overview scrapes information about what buyers preferred, or disliked about the merchandise, and carries a notice which reads the text is “AI-produced from the text of purchaser evaluations.”
For occasion, a cell listing for a “Magic Mixies” toy said that even though shoppers have given favourable feedback praising the item’s “enjoyment component” and “appearance,” there are also unfavorable testimonials about the high quality of the merchandise.
This new attribute was very first flagged by Mark Wieczorek, the main know-how officer of Amazon marketing and advertising agency Fortress Brand, in a LinkedIn post over the weekened.
Amazon did not promptly answer to Insider’s ask for for remark despatched exterior common enterprise hours, but a spokesperson confirmed to CNBC on Monday the company was testing the aspect.
“We are significantly investing in generative AI across all of our businesses,” an Amazon spokesperson explained to CNBC.
Wieczorek wrote in his LinkedIn write-up that AI-created product evaluate summaries could be helpful in guiding clients towards more recent opinions. “It truly is extended been known that aged solutions — that have experienced the time to construct up substantial quantities of assessments — have experienced an unfair benefit versus newer (likely excellent) entrants,” he claimed.
“This could be a stage toward cutting down critique moats and guiding prospects in direction of newer (possibly remarkable) merchandise that really don’t have “assessment moats,” he added.
Amazon’s rollout of the AI aspect arrives amid buzz in the technological know-how pursuing the viral success of the ChatGPT bot which spawned a race in the engineering.
Significant Tech firms from Google to Meta have all jumped into the AI trend, spurring fears that tech could eliminate jobs including those people in the media, marketplace exploration, and even the legal field. | <urn:uuid:45687401-4001-4a60-83bb-7fc92edbd1a4> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://enterprisejm.com/amazon-is-testing-an-ai-created-item-evaluation-feature.html | 2023-09-29T22:49:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.949214 | 511 |
We are here ready to offer insights and empowerment to all those connecting to this transmission. You are standing in your physical position observing your reality. What you are observing, witnessing and experiencing can be and often is challenging. This reality seems to be increasingly more difficult to witness and experience. Many would like to step out of this state of being; others are asking the bigger question, what does this mean, what is unfolding, how am I a part of what is occurring?
There is an aspect of the awakened self that knows there are far better ways to deal with these personal and global challenges. Events seem to be spiraling out of control, old patterns and beliefs holding on to the collective. Outer appearances are fearful, and polarized as systems seem likely to fail. This is not what you hoped for or expected.
Consider for a moment that this is all part of a major shift, a cosmic shift. The matrix of this 3D reality is being transformed. This matrix holding your perceived limited reality in form operates on a very limited narrow bandwidth of low frequencies. This is an energy field of unconscious limitation.
The frequency spectrum of the galactic or cosmic energies is unlimited. These frequencies are vast and multidimensional. There is a gentle yet continuous wave that is activating and encouraging all earthwalkers to awaken and anchor this incoming flow of energy, of upliftment and to remember how these awesome frequencies and vibrations feel.
Quantum physics reminds you that there is only one immense ocean of energy that materializes and dematerializes over and over in a millisecond. Nothing is solid. Remember it is all energy. It can never be used up; it will never run out. It is only re-cycled, re-directed and re-imprinted.
Unfortunately, many continue to use their creative ability upside down and backwards. The results are to repeat and imprint the same old patterns, the same limited outcomes, influenced by fears, doubts, and feelings of being powerless or helpless. Consequently, the inadequate dysfunctions have continued to manifest.
The cosmic frequencies that are interfacing with your 3D reality are stirring you awake. This shift, this transition that is happening, is overdue. More and more light workers and conscious starseeds are holding a firm frequency of gratitude, appreciation, compassion and respect for others.
This awareness and the conscious work that is being done to imprint this energy field with a frequency of honoring and respecting are causing a shift. As more earthwalkers awaken to their true essence, they are realizing that they are unlimited divine beings having this physical experience.
The energy illusion that you are experiencing as life is actually beginning to disintegrate, to break down, to wobble, as you and other awakened light beings accept the invitation and opportunity to imprint and anchor a new experience.
You are beginning to understand the hidden connections which unite the outer and inner worlds of your experiences. You truly connect to every aspect of your experiences, from your own body and thoughts to every event and object in the environment. All life is interwoven. You are like the pebble tossed into the pool of vibrations rippling out to touch all shores.
Now is the time to step up, to take ownership of who you are as a member the galactic family. Be present, alive, fully engaged with this dimension and your wondrous world at this significant time in its evolution and ascension.
Everyone has free will. The realities being created now offer many different paths. Realize that there is neither right nor wrong, they are just different paths. From a bigger perspective each divine being has selected a physical experience as a method to evolve, to expand and to remember. How will these paths play out in the matrix? Observe how you respond to these different paths.
This planet, this dimension, is a teaching environment. Each divine being infuses a physical body and interfaces with the energy field of your earth, which happens to be a field of unconscious limitation. Whether that individual awakens to this truth in this life experience or the next is their growth opportunity.
You however are aware of who you are as a divine essence, as a member of the galactic family having human sensations and encounters.
Recognize which path calls to you and follow it with all your intentions and will. Follow your heart insight and guidance with dedication and action. And as a star being you have the opportunity to hold a vision of a path of peace, harmony, love and forgiveness. You have the opportunity to evolve and reclaim your divine partnerships.
We remind you to exercise self care, listen to your own guidance and intuition, practice consciously raising your vibration and frequency, engage in a partnership between your mind and your heart. Be in nature, practice quiet alone time, nurture yourself as well as others.
When you consciously apply awareness to clean your own misqualified energies, when you watch your thoughts, your actions, your words, you are cleaning up aspects of the collective consciousness with which you have identified. You are on a path of light. You are an anchor for a new reality to come forth. Be aware when you hold and anchor a frequency of the higher vibrations, you are powerful beyond measure.
When you hold the possibility of a reality in which pollution can be transformed into clean air and water, misqualified emotions of hatred and prejudice can be shifted to acceptance and understanding, you are offering a frequency pebble that touches all aspects of this reality. You are anchoring the energy of an evolutional shift. You are anchoring the energy wave being offered by the divine luminous beings of your galactic family.
We acknowledge you and the work and service you continue to offer. We celebrate you and we assure you that when we are invited, we will walk the path with you. You are meant to be in partnership and connection with the divine luminous beings of love. We do delight in your invitation. the ‘team’.

In a similar mood Pascal had chosen to submit his logic-ridden intellect to the Catholic Church as an organization that through long experience had found a combination of doctrine and ritual helpful to morality and comforting to wonder and grief. Voltaire did not go so far, but in his seventies he moved confusedly in that direction.
He began by reconciling himself to the general desirability of some religion. When Boswell asked him (December 29, 1764), “Would you have no public worship?” Voltaire answered, “Yes, with all my heart. Let us meet four times a year in a great temple, with music, and thank God for all his gifts. There is one sun, there is one God; let us have one religion; then all mankind will be brethren.”119 The sun offered him, so to speak, a halfway house to God. In May, 1774, aged eighty, he rose before dawn, and climbed with a friend to see the sunrise from a nearby hill; perhaps he had been reading Rousseau. Reaching the top exhausted, and overwhelmed by the glory of the triumphant sun, he knelt and cried, “O mighty God, I believe!” But, the Voltaire in him rebounding, he said as he rose to his feet, “As to Monsieur the Son and Madame his mother, that is another matter!”120
Gradually he went further, and consented to allow a clergy, which would teach morality to the people and offer prayers to God.121 He acknowledged that the bishops in France and England had done some good in organizing social order; but cardinals were too expensive, and should be dispensed with. He had a tender regard for the simple parish priest who kept the village register, helped the poor, and made peace in troubled families; these curés should be more respected, better paid, less exploited by their ecclesiastical superiors.122 In generous moments the old penitent was willing to increase the religious assemblies from four times a year to once a month, even once a week.123 There should be prayers and thanksgiving, acts of adoration, and lessons in morality; but no “sacrifice,” no prayers of petition, and let the sermons be short! If you must have religious pictures or statues, let them commemorate not dubious saints but the heroes of humanity, like Henry IV (saving his mistresses). And no supernatural dogmas except the existence of a just God. The ecclesiastical organization should be subject to the state; the clergy should be trained and paid by the government. Monasteries and convents might remain, but only as refuges for the old or sick. Like so many skeptics, Voltaire had a tender regard for the nuns who came out of their convents to help the sick and the poor. Seeing the Sisters of Charity in the hospitals of Paris, he had written, in the Essai sur les moeurs: “There is not, on all the earth, anything to equal the sacrifice of beauty, youth, and often high birth, which the gentle sex offers gladly in order to solace, in the hospitals, the welter of human suffering.… The nations separated from the Roman faith have but imperfectly copied so noble a charity.”124
As “all the world knows,” Voltaire built near his mansion at Ferney a little church over whose portal he proudly inscribed the words “Deo erexit Voltaire” “This,” he claimed, “is the only church in the world dedicated to God alone; all the others are dedicated to saints.”125 He asked Rome to send him some sacred relics for his chapel; the Pope sent him a haircloth of St. Francis of Assisi. On the altar Voltaire placed a life-size gilded-metal statue of Christ, not as the crucified, but as a sage. There, from 1760 onward, he attended Mass every Sunday; he had himself censered as seigneur of the village; and at Easter, in 1768, he went to Communion.126 He sent his servants to church regularly, and paid to have their children taught the catechism.127
Much of this piety may have been designed to give his villagers a good example, to encourage them in beliefs that might lessen their crimes and safeguard his property. He made sure that the, court at Versailles should hear of his exemplary behavior, and perhaps he hoped that this would facilitate his campaigns for the Calas, the Sirvens, and La Barre, and his own return to Paris; and indeed the King and the Queen were pleased to hear of his reform. The Abbé de La Bletterie approved of Voltaire’s taking the Sacrament, but remarked, on seeing the communicant’s emaciation, that Voltaire had forgotten to have himself buried; to which Voltaire, bowing courteously, replied, “After you, monsieur.”128 On March 31, 1769, he summoned a notary and signed, before several witnesses, an affirmation that he wished to die in the Catholic religion.129 The fréres in Paris laughed at him; he bore their gibes good-humoredly.
After 1768 he adopted the monastic custom of having devotional works read to him at mealtime; for this purpose he preferred the sermons of Massillon; he could appreciate literature even when it came in a cassock. He had shared in the campaign against the Jesuits, but in 1770 he joined a lay association of the Capuchin friars, and received from the head of that order the title père temporal des capucins de Gex—the little county in which he was a feudal lord. He was quite proud of this honor, wrote a dozen letters about it, signed some letters “Frére Voltaire, capucin indigne” Frederick hailed him as a new saint of the Church, but informed him that the ecclesiastical authorities in Rome had in that same year burned some of the “unworthy Capuchin’s” works.130 It is difficult now to discern whether this rapprochement with the Church was sincere, or whether it was a peace offering to Versailles, or whether it was motived by fear lest his corpse be forbidden burial in consecrated ground—which included all the cemeteries in France. Perhaps all three motives played a part in the divine comedy.
In these final years, 1770–78, he devoted his pen rather to repudiating atheism then to attacking Christianity. Into the article “God” in the Dictionnaire philosophique he inserted two sections in refutation of d’Holbach’s Système de la nature. In 1772 he composed a vigorous essay, Il’ faut prendre un Parti (We Must Take Sides), in which he argued for “God and toleration.” He confessed to Mme. Necker, to the Duchesse de Choiseul, to Prince Frederick William of Prussia, his fear that the movement for religious toleration would be defeated by the advocacy of atheism. He regretted that his criticism of d’Holbach was endangering the solidarity of the fréres, but he persisted: “I have no doubt that the author, and three supporters of this book, will become my implacable enemies for having spoken my thoughts; and I have declared to them that I will speak out as long as I breathe, without fearing either the fanatics of atheism or the fanatics of superstition.”131 The holbachiens retorted that the rich seigneur was playing politics with Versailles, and was using God to police his servants and peasants at Ferney.
In the last decade of his life the men whom he had once hailed and spurred on as brothers in the campaign against l’infâme looked upon him as a lost leader. Diderot had never loved him, had never taken to corresponding with him, had resented Voltaire’s evident assumption that d’Alembert was the chief and soul of the Encyclopédie. Diderot applauded the defense of Calas, but he let slip a jealous line: “This man is never more than the second in all genres.”132 Voltaire did not share Diderot’s revolutionary politics, nor his liking for the bourgeois drama of sentiment; the bourgeois become aristocrat could not relish the bourgeois contentedly bourgeois. Neither Diderot nor d’Holbach made the pilgrimage of devotion to Ferney. Grimm commented with undue severity on Voltaire’s criticism of Hobbes and Spinoza: “The ’Ignorant Philosopher’ has with difficulty skimmed the surface of these matters.”133 And now the atheists of Paris, growing in number and pride, turned their backs upon Voltaire. So early as 1765, even amid the battle againstl’infâme, one of them dismissed him with scorn: “Il est un bigot, c’est un déiste.”134
Buffeted from both sides, the frail patriarch began, toward 1770, to lose faith in the prospects of victory. He called himself a “great destroyer” who had built nothing.135 His new religion of “God and tolerance,” he feared, would come only when rulers would accept the Abbé de Saint-Pierre’s “project for perpetual peace”—i.e., probably never at all. He had long suspected the frailty of philosophy and the unattractiveness of reason. “No philosopher has influenced the manners of even the street he lived in.”136 He surrendered the masses to “superstition” or mythology. He hoped to win some “forty thousand sages” in France, and the educated strata of the middle class; but even this hope began to fade in the twilight of his years. “To enlighten the young, bit by bit”—this was all the dream that was left to him as he prepared, aged eighty-four, to see Paris and die. Perhaps, in the marvelous welcome that he was destined to receive there, his faith and hope in man would return.
Was he a philosopher? Yes, though he made no system, vacillated on everything, and too often remained on the surface of things. He was not a philosopher if the word means the maker of a system of unified and consistent thought about the world and man. He turned away from systems as the impudent sallies of the minuscle into the infinite. But he was a philosopher if that means a mind seriously occupied with the basic problems of nature, morals, government, life, and destiny. He was not considered profound, but perhaps that was because he was uncertain and clear. His ideas were seldom original, but in philosophy nearly all original ideas are foolish, and lack of originality is a sign of wisdom. Certainly the form that he gave to his ideas was original; Voltaire is without question the most brilliant writer that ever lived. Was he second in every field, as Diderot charged? Second in philosophy to Diderot, yes, and in drama to Corneille and Racine; but he was first and best in his time in his conception and writing of history, in the grace of his poetry, in the charm and wit of his prose, in the range of his thought and his influence. His spirit moved like a flame over the continent and the century, and stirs a million souls in every generation.
Perhaps he hated too much, but we must remember the provocation; we must imagine ourselves back in an age when men were burned at the stake, or broken on the wheel, for deviating from orthodoxy. We can appreciate Christianity better today than he could then, because he fought with some success to moderate its dogmas and violence. We can feel the power and splendor of the Old Testament, the beauty and elevation of the New, because we are free to think of them as the labor and inspiration of fallible men. We can be grateful for the ethics of Christ, because he no longer threatens us with hell, nor curses the men and cities that will not hear him.137 We can feel the nobility of St. Francis of Assisi, because we are no longer asked to believe that St. Francis Xavier was heard in several languages while he spoke in one. We can feel the poetry and drama of religious ritual now that the transient triumph of toleration leaves us free to worship or abstain. We can accept a hundred legends as profound symbols or illuminating allegories, because we are no longer required to accept their literal truth. We have learned to sympathize with that which we once loved and had to leave, as we retain a tender memory for the loves of our youth. And to whom, more than to any other one man, do we owe this precious and epochal liberation? To Voltaire.
I. Oh, miserable mortals, grieving earth!
Oh, frightful gathering of all mankind!
Eternal host of useless sufferings!
Ye silly sages who cry, “All is well,”
Come, contemplate these ruins horrible,
This wreck, these shreds and ashes of your race;
Women and children heaped in common death,
These scattered members under broken shafts;
A hundred thousand luckless by the earth
Devoured, who, bleeding, torn, and still alive,
Buried beneath their roofs, end without help
Their lamentable days in torment vile!
To their expiring and half-formed cries,
The smoking cinders of this ghoulish scene,
Say you, “This follows from eternal laws
Binding the choice of God both free and good”?
Will you, before this mass of victims, say,
“God is revenged, their death repays their crimes”?
II. This was in an Apologie de Louis XIV(1762), by the Abbé de Caveyrac. Many Catholic clergymen condemned this book.54
III. “The Lutheran and Calvinist preachers would probably be as little inclined to pity, as obdurate and intolerant, as they upbraid their antagonists with being. The barbarous law whereby any Roman Catholic is forbidden to reside more than three days in certain countries is not yet revoked.”—Essay on Free Toleration, in Works, XXIa, 257. Cf. Voltaire’s denunciation of the intolerant Huguenot Jurieu in the article “David” in the Dictionnaire philosophique. | <urn:uuid:f977a2ae-b7b4-4ba5-a0c8-d4252e8ad035> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://erenow.org/modern/the-age-of-voltaire-a-history-of-civlization-in-western-europe-from-1715-to-1756/128.php | 2023-09-29T22:50:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.975893 | 3,077 |
The 2015 #Notarule Tour is a curious cavalcade of unusual events united in the purpose of helping you break rules that don’t exist. Fueled by the message Penguins Can’t Fly, this is one unconventional book tour. There will be stops at zoos, ice cream parlors, national landmarks, a few bookstores, and even an art fair!
Rather than repeating the tried-and-true (but insanely boring) model most “book tours” subscribe to, our goal was to tell a better story by creating fun, memorable, and engaging events and experiences. Most stops will feature opportunities for you and your companions to break one or many rules. Some stops won’t even provide any opportunities to buy books (although if you bring one for me to sign, I’ll give you a free signed print!) A few will offer the opportunity to decorate ugly cookies!
Find Marty Art Drop
Every stop will feature a “Find Marty Art Drop,” in which a small cache of goodies (including an adorable tiny toy penguin, a signed and numbered limited edition print, and instructions for claiming a free copy of Penguins Can’t Fly), will be hidden. Clues will be revealed on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and the winner is the first to find it!
#Notarule Tour Notables:
- Number of states: 13
- Number of cities: 25
- Number of zoos: 5 (we tried for more, but many of them have Adultitis.)
- I will be bringing along my family (a wife and three kids under seven) for the majority of the stops. This may or may not be certifiably insane. But it’s guaranteed to be memorable.
- I have a limited amount of time reserved for media interviews. If you would like to schedule a time for a lively chat, please contact his publicist Michelle Cashman at email@example.com

Steel springs for OMS fins
Steel springs for EXTRA LARGE fins (27 cm)
One size cannot fit all. Did you know that one size of spring can cause excessive spring stretch when you wear larger shoes?

Every student comes to writing essays in high school or college. Most of these essays that students write require a thesis statement in the introductory paragraph. The main purpose of writing a thesis statement is to inform the readers about the purpose of the essay. Basically, a thesis statement tells the readers why they should read the essay. A thesis statement is written in the form of a question in the introductory paragraph of any type of essay. Later in the main body, the writer of the essay attempts to justify his/her thesis statement by providing logical arguments along with supportive facts and figures as evidence to prove or disprove a particular argument. This article is a basic guide on how to write an effective thesis statement to make an essay more appealing and interesting for the readers to read. Read below to learn to write a thesis statement.
Create a Question
Study your essay topic from various sources such as the internet, magazines, books and scholarly journals. Once you have some background information about the topic create a question related to the essay topic. For instance, your essay assignment is to explain ‘Why do you believe that drugs can have adverse effects on one’s health?’ Turn this topic into a question for instance, ‘Why do I believe that drugs can have adverse effects on health?’ Make sure to create a thesis that is not too vague. It must be strong and very specific.
Engage your Readers
A good thesis statement always engages the readers thoroughly into reading the entire essay. If the readers come up with questions such as ‘so what’ than your thesis statement needs to be changed to make it more effective.
Consult your Professor
However, if you face difficulties writing a good thesis statement you can always seek guidance from your instructors and professors. Try yourself initially but if you feel that your thesis statement is not doing justice than your professors or instructors can be the best guide.
A thesis statement is one of the most important aspects of writing an essay. Without an effective and strong thesis statement, you can risk the danger of losing points in your essay.

Assume that you are a consultant engaged in a project to implement a major high-speed overpass extension to the most congested highway, linking rural provinces to a major Asian city of 12 million people. A major feature of this project is to implement an electronic toll collection system for this high-speed segment. The objective of the entire project was not just to relieve congestion, lower the cost of operating vehicles, and improve the quality of transport services. It was also initiated to help address the loss of revenue resulting from an antiquated and corruption-ridden system of manual toll collection.You helped implement the toll collection system and returned three years later to evaluate the effectiveness of the program. Data on toll collections and traffic volumes are available on a day-to-day basis. For this Discussion, review this week’s Learning Resources and examine the effectiveness of the project. Provide an explanation of how you would analyze data for this type of project. Include in your explanation the type of design and analysis you might use to address the problem. | <urn:uuid:0fa12ad4-ce78-4e33-bdeb-5f9cf56de191> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://essaysassignment.com/qualitative-approaches-statistics-2/ | 2023-09-29T23:31:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.945651 | 214 |
There are any number of reasons to visit the Turks and Caicos—the dining is a sublime mix of cuisines, the snorkeling and diving is unsurpassed and the deep-sea fishing is world-renowned. There are two casinos in case you feel lucky and various golf courses. Here are our reviews of a few of the best golf courses in the Turks and Caicos.
Let’s start with some history. While there is an argument to make that Ponce de León was the first European explorer to discover the islands, a better bet would be Christopher Columbus.
As was the case in so many islands in this region, by 1766 the Turks and Caicos had been ruled at various times by the English, French and Spanish. Eventually, the British merged the islands with one of their prized colonies, the Bahamas. The islands were of particular commercial value to the British because of the unusually fine and abundant salt that could be exported, as well as a profitable cotton trade. The Turks and Caicos islands were also havens for pirates, who wreaked havoc on the trade routes as well as the homes of wealthy merchants.
The British and French fought over the islands for most of the 1700s, with both countries trading control. In 1874, Jamaica annexed the islands until Jamaica gained independence from Great Britain in 1962, when the Turks and Caicos became a British Crown Colony. Today, it remains a British overseas territory with residents having British citizenship.
Provo Golf & Country Club
The 18-hole Provo Golf & Country Club is located in the Grace Bay area of Providenciales, or “Provo.” Rated as one of the best golf courses in the Caribbean, ranked with the top 10 courses by Barron’s and Travel and Leisure magazine, the course, which opened in 1992, is a study in “Target golf” popularised by golf course architect Pete Dye at the Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass.
It features smallish greens and landing areas protected by bunkers and waste areas. Marshes and lakes come into play on 10 holes and limestone outcroppings add to the beauty of the course, which plays to 6,705 yards from the back markers with a Slope rating of 136. There is abundant wildlife on the course including pink flamingos, the island’s official bird. This is all adding to the deserved title of being one of the best golf courses in the Caribbean.
The club offers a fully stocked pro shop and club rentals are available. Lessons are offered and after your round, stop by Fairways Bar and Grill. The clubhouse is considered to be one of the finest in the Caribbean and Atlantic. There are also lighted tennis courts with tennis equipment available to rent.
Waterloo Golf Club
Next up is the Waterloo Golf Club, which opened in 1998 on the island of Grand Turk in the Caribbean. The 2,758-yard, par-3 championship golf course hosts a variety of competitions. The golf club is considered a non-profit company and maintains the grounds with money donated by local residents, greens or membership fees that are very reasonable.
Finally, there is the Turks and Caicos Miniature Golf Club, which is also located on Provo and is very popular. The 18-hole features water hazards, bunkers, a waterfall and a pond. The course has a number of special offers and events like children’s parties, special prices for women on Fridays and annual tournaments. Fees are $15 for adults and $10 for children.

As I had mentioned in one of my previous blogs, I am a huge Disney Fan! Some of my earliest memories are of me in front of the TV dancing along with the penguins in Mary Poppins and riding on my dad’s back pretending to be Aladdin.

Opening an estate in Wheaton probate is the first step toward administering an estate. While every person leaves an estate when they pass away, not every estate must go through the probate process. Therefore, before opening an estate, the executor or personal administrator should determine whether the estate must undergo formal probate proceedings.
When probate is required, many people find it helpful to work with an experienced probate lawyer. A Wheaton trusts and estates lawyer could assist with opening an estate and complying with legal requirements throughout the administration process.
State law provides for administration of a “small” estate through an affidavit process rather than formal probate. An estate may be considered small even if the deceased individual owned a great deal of property because many assets may not be treated as part of the estate.
Property that is usually not part of an estate in Wheaton includes:
If the deceased person transferred most assets to a trust or had the majority of their assets in accounts with a designated beneficiary, then the remaining property that forms their estate could be under the limit for probate. 755 Ill. Comp. Stat. §5/25-1 describes the affidavit that may be used to transfer property when the value of an estate does not exceed $100,000.
If a Wheaton estate requires formal probate, the Circuit Court of DuPage County oversees the process. Overall, probate involves collecting assets, ensuring that creditors are notified of the death, paying bills including final expenses, and then distributing the remaining assets to the legal heirs or legatees named in the will. The presence or absence of a will has no bearing on the issue of whether an estate needs to go through probate, but it does affect the probate process.
If there is a will, part of opening an estate in Wheaton probate includes filing the will with the clerk of the DuPage County Circuit Court. When there is no will, property passes according to the laws of intestate succession. Although the will may designate an individual to serve as personal representative or executor, that person needs to formally request appointment from the court before continuing with other tasks.
Opening an estate in Wheaton probate involves filing several documents with the court. The personal representative needs to file a Petition for Letters of Office to be granted authority to administer the estate. There are different types of petitions to be filed depending on the circumstances. Notice of the petition may need to be served on certain people to allow them opportunity to object to the proposed appointment.
In addition to the Petition for Letters of Office, the representative must file an oath of office and sometimes must also submit a surety bond to provide protection in case of misconduct. Additionally, the representative would file an Affidavit of Heirship identifying the family members of the deceased person who would traditionally be entitled to inherit. In many cases, at the same time, the representative files a draft Order Declaring Heirship which the judge may sign if the court finds the Affidavit in order.
When the court approves a representative’s request for letters of office, the judge designates the administration as either independent or supervised. When opening an estate in Wheaton leads to a supervised administration, care must be taken to ensure that the court approves the requisite steps in the probate process.
An experienced probate attorney could provide guidance or manage most of the process of opening an estate in Wheaton probate. In addition to court filings, it is usually necessary to request a tax ID number and open a bank account in the name of the estate. | <urn:uuid:b2ccff69-a94f-4ddf-8dfb-c877b6fe2fe2> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://estateandprobatelegalgroup.com/wheaton-trust-and-estates/estate-planning-lawyer/opening-in-probate/ | 2023-09-29T23:57:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.945722 | 725 |

Every summer, our public library encourages kids to continue reading and to do so, provides a variety of incentives. From what I understand, most libraries in the United States participate in the program and while the theme will be consistent whether you are in Oregon or Minnesota, the way in which each library implements the program will vary.
I have always been impressed with our library … particularly the children’s librarians who go out of their way to develop fun, engaging and educational programing for all ages. The 2011 theme is One World, Many Stories and children ages 6-11 take part in Adventure Corps – stories and crafts specific to this age group. We have attended when we can – though sadly, not as often as we would like. This week, we journeyed to Africa.
Jambo, rafi ki! Hello, friend! “Safari” is Swahili for journey, and that’s what we’ll do. Travel from east to west Africa with a story from Kenya, and a story and game from Ghana. Learn to speak Swahili and make a mask.
Upon our arrival, the kids were given an opportunity to play with a number of the musical instruments that Heather McNeil had brought in to share. Heather is one of the most dynamic storytellers at the library and we discovered that she has traveled to Kenya multiple times herself to collect stories and perfect her craft. We were delighted to spend the afternoon listening to her as learned more about Africa.
The instruments the boys are shown with here are called, shekere. The shekere is a handmade rattle consisting of a hollow gourd or calabash, covered on the outside with a net of seeds, beads, shells, or any available material. Although its origins are West African, today it is found in the Americas and Caribbean as well. Check out this website to learn more and to find instructions to build one for yourself, The Beaded Gourd.
The girls are modeling a kalimba or thumb piano. A kalimba is an African musical instrument, a type of plucked idiophone common throughout Sub-Saharan Africa, consisting of a wooden board to which staggered metal keys have been attached. You can play one here at PBS: AFRICA.
The program began with Heather sharing with us a wonderful oral telling of Who’s in Rabbit’s House (Masai Tale) by Verna Aardema. Her animation and voices had everyone – adults and children alike – enthralled. We then learned to count in Swahili and jumped to count out each number. She then read aloud Zomo the Rabbit: A Trickster Tale from West Africa by Gerald McDermott.
Last summer, we spent several weeks inundating ourselves in the culture of Africa as a part of a Geography Co-op. You can read all about our activities on my Squidoo lens, Africa: A Homeschool Unit Study. | <urn:uuid:735fcdb0-ed5d-4d9f-9931-8e62799a51ba> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://evavarga.net/tag/cultural-studies/ | 2023-09-30T00:34:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.954716 | 613 |
When stars broke through the sky’s tapestry, Clara unfurled her wings and with a few powerful flaps was airborne. There was something about breaking free from the grasp of the earth that never failed to elicit a rush. It’s better than hugging the road while taking a sharp turn.
She hugged the treeline as much as possible to avoid detection. All the while she kept her eyes on the glow of the city out ahead, which appeared to be an hour away by car. I’m lucky that I ended up in such a remote location.

He clearly realized that he was 6 inches taller and some 40 pounds heavier than Gordon and saw it as an opportunity to go after the smaller dude, like a bully. No one stood up for Gordon - very disappointing! Godfrey and Holgate, to name just two, should have gone over there and get in Dondecker's face.
Have I mentioned how much I hate backpasses btw?
Scariest thing about the backpass wasn't what Godfrey did, although that was really bad. It was the total lack of urgency and awareness from Holgate, who didn't seem to realise that it was going to be short, and that Jiminez was 3 yards away from him and on the move.
Than in itself is the reason Holgate should never wear Everton shirt again,
later in the game he just charged at the Wolves player with the only thoughts in his head
he will be on the bench next week. he's certainly one needs to move on along with Awobie.

Most people have heard that cats have the ability to always land on their feet. Despite the popularity of this notion, is it true? Even though many things are still unknown about cats, their ability to land on their feet is not one of them.
Cats do land on their feet most of the time. Of course, there will be instances of cats not landing on their feet, but cats have a specific body type and ability that allows them to land on their feet in most scenarios. Let’s take a closer look at why cats can land on their feet from a scientific perspective. Believe it or not, but science tells us a whole lot about this phenomenon.
Let’s jump right in.
Do Cats Always Land on Their Feet?
First, we should mention that although cats normally land on their feet, it is possible that they land on their backs from a fall. The height of the fall and their weight are two factors that may inhibit a cat’s ability to land on its feet.
Nevertheless, most cats can land on their feet when they fall. That’s because cats have this balancing system built into their ears called the righting reflex. This righting reflex was discovered in 1894 by Etienne-Jules Marey, who used a chronophotographic camera to capture a cat falling at 60 frames a second.
The Righting Reflex
The righting reflex is the cats’ specific ability to turn itself the right way as it is falling. What allows cats to have this righting reflex is the vestibular apparatus inside their ear. This apparatus, which enhances balance and orientation, will enable cats to figure out which way is up quickly. As a result, they can turn their head, allowing their body to follow when they fall.
With a response as impressive as the righting reflex, you might think that only adult cats have this power. On the contrary, kittens start demonstrating the righting reflex as early as three weeks. Almost all kittens will have this reflex fully developed by the time they are seven weeks old.
Body Weight and Surface Area
In addition to the righting reflex, cats’ bodies have evolved to climb up trees and fall from them safely. As a result, their overall body enhances the righting reflex and safety whenever they fall from great heights.
For one thing, cats have a unique skeletal system. They don’t have a collar bone, and their backbone is incredibly flexible, complete with 30 vertebrae. This skeletal system is very important for the righting reflex. Being so flexible, the cat can quickly correct themselves without injuring their bones.
More so, cats are incredibly light in comparison to their surface area. By having a greater surface area than bodyweight, cats can slow their velocity whenever they are falling. When this happens, they have more time to react to the fall and adjust their bodies to act more like a parachute.
A cat’s maximum velocity is nearly half that of a human. Cats reach a maximum velocity of 60 mph. Humans, in comparison, reach a maximum velocity at 120 mph. In other words, cats have a slower velocity because of their weight to body ratio.
Zoom in On The Legs
In addition to the righting reflex, cats’ legs largely impact their survival and ability to fall safely. The righting reflex would be nothing if their legs couldn’t support their weight and absorb shock whenever they fall from tall heights.
Given that cats spend a lot of time in trees, their legs have evolved to be incredibly muscular and reduce shock impact. Even more so, cats have angled legs that make them great for jumping, climbing to great heights, and absorbing impact if they fall.
To put all of this together, a cat’s righting reflex works together with its powerful legs to correctly orient the cat and absorb impact with falls. Without both of these aspects, the cat would be injured in some way from a great height.
Does Fall Height Matter?
Even with the righting reflex, the height of the fall impacts the cat’s ability to land on its feet dramatically. When it comes to humans, higher falls tend to lead to the most injuries. With cats, however, falls from higher heights often result in fewer injuries.
According to a 1987 study, many records were analyzed to see how height affects a cat’s ability to land. In all of these records, the cats fell from multistory buildings. A whopping 90% of cats survive the fall. Meanwhile, only 37% of them needed emergency care afterward.
Interestingly, cats that fell between 7 and 32 stories suffered fewer injuries than cats that fell between 2 and 6 stories. One cat even fell at 32 stories, landed on concrete, and only received a few injuries, including a chipped tooth and a minor puncture to the lung.
Most scientists believe that falling from greater heights gives cats more time to respond. When falling from greater heights, they can correct themselves earlier on and then respond to the fall much as a flying squirrel does.
Because of its greater air resistance and slower velocity, a cat can stretch its legs out, relax, and increase drag resistance. This increased drag resistance makes the fall less hard, resulting in fewer injuries.
Don’t Let Your Cat Fall
Even though cats have an instinct to land on their feet when they fall, you certainly shouldn’t push your cat off a ledge or put them in some type of scenario where they could fall. As we mentioned initially, the righting reflex doesn’t guarantee that the cat will land on its feet. Instead, the reflex only makes it more likely.
The last thing you want is to put your cat in unnecessary danger. Make sure to keep your pet cat safe, healthy, and away from open ledges. This is especially true of old and overweight cats. Their bodies are not of optimal ability to land safely, even with the righting reflex.

Shockingly, the old saying that cats will always land on their feet is true. Because of cats’ righting reflex, low weight to body ratio, and shock-absorbing legs, they can securely land on their feet after falling from great heights unscathed.
Once again, you certainly shouldn’t test out your cat’s righting reflex, but you should rest assured that they likely won’t hurt themselves when climbing up a tree.

When we decided to get married in Cyprus it was all done within two and a half months!
Even though we eloped there was still a lot to organise; so many documents and legalities! Sorting a venue and a photographer, finding the best date, flowers! And so little time.
Stella Virdi from Exclusive Weddings Cyprus, took it all in her stride. From the initial contact she was in constant touch with us, advising and planning and arranging absolutely everything. Picking us up from the hotel to submit the documents two days before the service, picking us up again on the big day. Even hiring a photographer who could speak to both of us fluently (I’m English, Olinka Russian).
Never once did she falter; never once did we feel anxious or worried in the slightest. We were in very capable hands and the day went perfectly. Happy memories indeed.
We can’t just believe what a magical day we had and that is once again thanks to you.
We absolutely love the photos and please can you thank Andy Sosinski for us, you said he was the best and his pictures prove that.
Dian and I have had such a great reception returning home and still at times have to pinch ourselves as it still feels like a dream.
Thank you again for all you’ve done for us, and made what was pipe dream into reality, it couldn’t have been more perfect.
We wish you and family all the best in the world and look forward to returning to Cyprus for a catch up.
This wedding was organized in 2 days whilst we were in Cyprus we just decided to get married, found Stella Virdi and everything was done swiftly, with no stress, the day ended with us on a private Yacht.
Thank you Stella Virdi – you are amazing.. you made our day!
Then you changed our lives. Lots of love to you and so many thanks x x
Lyn and Ted who married here in Cyprus 3 years ago this weekend..
For me a life-changing experience. We are now living here and I am enjoying helping other couples who want to make their day special. Whether it is a wedding celebration, LGBT marriage celebration, or a vow renewal.. I would love to help make your day a day to remember using words which you are comfortable with, and words which mean something to you.. You can include music, readings, symbolic ceremonies such as hand fasting or sand blessing..
The ceremony can be held wherever you like. The only limit is your imagination! Happy Anniversary Ted.. and thank you for a life of music, love and laughter x x
Coming up to New Year, not wedding season just now, but for Bernadette and Graham Fee it was the perfect time to get married. Staying at the Elysium hotel and marrying at Paphos town hall, they had a romantic wedding just to two of them on the 30th December 2013.
I was my pleasure to arrange and very much be a part of their big day.
I wish them a wonderful marriage together, health, wealth and much happiness. | <urn:uuid:6d69ee79-4e44-4fb7-b198-ddd597ae48f1> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://exclusiveweddingscyprus.com/tag/wedding-planner-cyprus/ | 2023-09-29T23:24:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.977575 | 643 |

Employers Prohibited From Relying On Salary History In Making Hiring Decisions
- On 27 October 2017
- Posted by Chantal Mariotti
It’s the law! As of January 1st, 2018, California employers will be prohibited from relying on salary history when determining whether or not to make a job offer, or in determining any salary offer to a new hire. This new law, labeled AB 168, was signed into law by California Governor Jerry Brown on October 12, 2017.
The new law prohibits employers from seeking salary history information about an applicant. The employer must also, upon receiving a “reasonable request” from an applicant, provide the applicant with a pay scale for the position for which they’re applying.
AB 168 does allow applicants to voluntarily disclose their salary history. And should an applicant submit their information voluntarily, the employer may then use the provided salary history information in making job hiring and salary determinations. The bill only prevents employers from requesting, or requiring, such information from applicants.
Review your hiring process for 2018! Double check that your company’s recruiting process, including your job applications, candidate screening & interview procedures do not include any request for salary history information. ECG can review your hiring procedures for you, making sure you are up to date and in compliance with all new and current regulations being handed down from Sacramento. | <urn:uuid:38a544a3-2faa-48fb-9028-0a1aa133123f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://executivehrconsulting.com/our-blog/employers-prohibited-from-relying-on-salary-history-in-making-hiring-decisions | 2023-09-29T22:57:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.928054 | 282 |
One technique would be to create a Task level "Planned Percent Complete" calculated parameter that computes the percent complete based upon the current date using the Planned Start Date and Planned Completion Date (e.g. 0% if before, 100% if after, somewhere in between if in between, linearly). You could then reported the Task Percent Complete next to that Planned Percent Complete, noting that you'll need to recalc the latter every day to keep it current, either manually, or using (for example) our Recalc Parameters solution (e.g. every night). You could then update the former with the latter to "force" the Task to stay on track, either manually, or using (for example) our Excel Updater solution to do so on mass. To then ensure Timelines are then adjusted accordingly (e.g. driving the Project Percent Complete), you could then recalculate timelines manually, or using our Force Timeline Recalculation solution (e.g. every night).
Once you've proven the theory (and value), you could then automate the whole shebang (e.g. using Fusion, API, our UberCalc solution, etc.) | <urn:uuid:048a0a91-3586-4401-bea2-54acd8d65e78> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/workfront-questions/is-it-possible-to-automate-the-percent-complete-of-tasks/td-p/511638 | 2023-09-30T01:04:07Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.885535 | 242 |
The thing that struck me about Salzburg upon arriving in Salzburg, is that it doesn’t revolve around The Sound of Music. No VonTrapp children greeted us with a song, no restaurants were playing the soundtrack for background music, no one offered to show me the way to a grassy green hilltop where I could twirl with arms spread wide while singing to my heart’s content. Our friendly Airbnb hostess gave us a dozen city recommendations, none of which were Sound of Music related. They honestly appeared to be more excited about Mozart. No offense, Mozart, but to me, Salzburg is the Sound of Music.
Despite my utter dismay, Salzburg is a lovely little city. Perfect for a one-day trip if all you have is a day, and easily explored on foot.
Begin your day by spending the morning learning about the history of Salzburg at Fortress Hohensalzburg. The fortress towers over the city. You can take a funicular up from near the cathedral in old town. Or if you’re coming from the opposite direction, there is a nice walking path that will make your legs burn on the climb, but takes you through the old-fortified walls. There is much to offer once you’re inside. Cannons perched in windows where you can play real-life knight in shining armor. Actual knight’s shining armor in the museums. A knight’s restaurant in the castle tavern that comes with a medieval dinner and show. A marionette museum. Plus, a 360 view of the city below, and Alps beyond from the top of one tower. To name a few.
Take the funicular down and spend the early afternoon exploring the alleys and shops in Old Town. Grab lunch there. And then, depending on your travel companions’ preferences, head over to the Toy Museum Salzburg, or Mozart’s Birth House and museum. Both of which come highly recommended. The Toy Museum has hands-on play exhibits. I can’t say the same for Mozart’s.
After this, cross over the Salzach river on the Marko Feingold Steg pedestrian bridge to Mozart’s Residence, also a museum. You must at least stop by. Nearby is Mirabelle Palace. The grounds are lovely, and at one end are the steps on which Maria and the children hopped up and down as real-live music notes singing Do-Re-Me.
It is probably approaching a kid-friendly dinnertime/happy hour by now. Walk back across the river and head up the hill to Augustiner Brau. When you walk in the door, grab a stein in the size of your choosing off the wall, bring it over to one of the fountains for a rinse, and then to the beer line to have it filled. Head in to one of the enormous beer halls and find a place to sit. There are food stalls, set up market style in the hallways. Everyone can find something to their liking to eat. You earned it today!
If you, like me, cannot fathom going to Salzburg and missing out on all things Sound of Music, check out the Sound of Music bicycle tour. I haven’t done it, so you’ll have to let me know what you think! It is high on my to-do list. But we visited on a freezing weekend in February with very small children and a very, very small infant. I shall return.
I hope you’ve enjoyed your walking tour on one day in Salzburg. This is a completely doable day trip. The total distance is approximately 3.4km (that’s 2.1 miles). Plus, any walking you do to-from your accommodations, where you parked, or the train station. With the exception of the walk up to the fortress, it is flat and stroller friendly. You’ll be amazed by how much you will see!
Salzburg is a great launch pad to use to explore more of beautiful Austria, and the Bavarian Alps. Hallstatt and the Salzkammergut region would make an excellent next stop on your adventure.

Malachi “Chef Spank” Jenkins and Roberto “News” Smith are the founders of Trap Kitchen, a catering business based in Compton, California. Prior to founding Trap Kitchen, the two were rival street gang members.
It all began when Jenkins decided to change the course of his life by being more productive and useful to his community. After weighing his career path options, he decided to pursue a career in culinary due to his interest in cooking and enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu in Las Vegas at age 22.
In the course of his studies, he experienced a tragic loss and had to return to Compton, whereupon he linked up with rival gang member Smith. After mulling over their future, they decided to combine their resources and venture into the culinary industry, leading to the founding of Trap Kitchen in 2013.
From the backyard of Smith’s grandmother’s house, they cooked and shared the result on social media. Their first meal was an enchilada pie, which they shared on Instagram and instantly sold out. They delivered the pie directly to people’s doorsteps. They made $300 through their new venture, according to Forbes.
Trap Kitchen was soon being managed by Jenkins, Smith, friend and delivery coordinator Kevin “DJ Kevvy Kev” Burton, and Manager Nisa Ahmad.
They continued Trap Kitchen out of their homes and delivered orders directly to customers. The influence of their kitchen grew beyond Compton, and they soon had celebrities like Tyga, The Game, Kendrick Lamar, and more, as customers.
Today, Trap Kitchen boasts multiple locations in Oakland and Portland, a pop-up in Las Vegas, and three trucks in Los Angeles. They have also expanded their “trap” operation into two cookbooks, with their most recent being Trap Kitchen: Mac N’ All Over The World, which offers more than 50 global mac and cheese recipes and features a foreword by Snoop Dogg.
For those who want to be like the Trap Kitchen founders, their advice is simple. “Believe in yourself. Start where you are and use what you have. Make small steps because you don’t know what could be out there waiting for you,” said Ahmad. | <urn:uuid:56789c57-b091-4476-8052-6c4ca9529e70> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://face2faceafrica.com/article/how-these-rival-gang-members-started-a-thriving-restaurant-from-a-backyard | 2023-09-29T23:51:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.978514 | 463 |
There is uneasy tension at American University following the emergence of disturbing footage of police officers dragging a black student from her room.
Students of the University Monday demonstrated near the campus student union to demand justice for the student identified as Gianna Wheeler as she appeared before the university disciplinary committee for a conduct review.
The incident occurred September 27 at the Frequency Apartments in Washington, D.C., an off-campus housing unit owned by the University, The Eagle reported.
First posted on Twitter by former AU student and freelance activist Aminta Zea, the Video showed the police officers removing Wheeler into the hallway by her arms and legs.
URGENT: @AmericanU has allowed for their clientele and DC PD to violently attack and remove a young Black student from her home without proper evidence. When is it EVER ok for a young woman to be attacked by MULTIPLE cops. AU doesn’t care about its Black students. #HandsOffGianna pic.twitter.com/7NZP0gyCHC— Aminta (@tangibleunknown) September 27, 2019
“You’re dragging me,” Wheeler shouted in the video. “Get off of me.”
“This is my dorm room,” she also shouted.
Wheeler’s dastardly treatment and her subsequent appearance before the University’s disciplinary committee enraged some students, protesting on Monday in her support.
The protest was organized by Black Lives Matter D.C.
Black Morning! Yesterday was Powerful, as we took to our streets for a #DayOfOutOutrage We would like to thank everyone who came out to #ProtectOurSisters @AmericanU students Rise Up!#HandsOffGianna She was found Not Guilty of all charges @untilfreedom #WeKeepUsSafe #sayhername pic.twitter.com/v9tSKMt0cT— BlackLivesMatter DC (@DMVBlackLives) October 29, 2019
“What should have been the university’s earnest concern about the mental and emotional well-being of the student, was weaponized and used to permanently traumatize Gianna,” Black Lives Matter organizers said online.
According to them, seven police officers went into Wheeler’s room and removed her “against her will.”
“One police officer also took the time to mock and threaten, that Gianna was going to be on suspension from the school,” they said. “Recently we have seen how the egregious misapplication of force and the police state mentality can lead to state-sanctioned murder, as in the case of Atatiana Jefferson.”
Remarking on the protest the University said in a statement that: “American University is committed to the right to free expression, including the freedom to express dissent.
“We welcome student organizations to exercise these freedoms on campus guided by factors that include safety, the rights of others and the normal functioning of the university. It’s part of our mission of building inclusive communities, learning and sharing knowledge.” | <urn:uuid:6ee598af-cd90-425d-a282-e4de0636577f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://face2faceafrica.com/article/uproar-as-seven-police-officers-drag-a-black-female-student-of-american-university-from-her-hostel | 2023-09-30T00:24:37Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.961537 | 650 |

F otherwise most people, merely an excellent “yes” or “I could”, suffices. Megan Fox ran a tiny further in the event the singer Machine-gun Kelly asked the girl to help you wed your. “Like with the lifetime before this that,” she , “so that as in just about any life that will follow it, I told you sure … And we ate for each other people’s blood.”
Kelly suggested underneath the exact same banyan tree, on Ritz-Carlton Dorado Beach lodge in Puerto Rico, where the couples satisfied a-year before. At that time they were shooting Midnight from the Switchgrass, an excellent Bruce Willis offense-thriller having an enthusiastic 8% get toward Spoiled tomatoes.
Kelly possess while the said the guy just took the part about movie therefore he may carry out a scene which have Fox, which would rise above the crowd since the incredibly scary if they had not addicted right up, the good news is they truly are engaged and getting married we are able to reclassify as adorable. Once he was hanging out the woman trailer for a time, Fox obtained towards the their exposure and desired your to have dinner together with her. She asked him exactly how he was feeling and he responded, “I am destroyed”. Fox reportedly replied, “Really, let us discover you”, as well as the artist understood he previously fallen in love.

Fox and Kelly made like cool once again, preserving us from being required to discover hence mundane guy with brownish locks Taylor Quick are relationship now, or pretending you to definitely Ye and Ny socialite Julia Fox’s thriving “romance” try not a W magazine psyop built to promote Gap jumpers
They truly are wanting both, a little in public areas, from the time: within the vampire-determined GQ photoshoot where Kelly pretends in order to bite Fox’s neck if you’re she gazes on heavens during the euphoria; from the VMAs whenever Fox wore a scarcely-around Mugler dress right after which advised Amusement Each week the woman cabinet selection had been inspired from the Kelly advising the lady “You will be going to be nude tonight” along with her reacting “Anything you say, Daddy”; into an August webisode out of Thirst Tweets to own Buzzfeed Celeb when Kelly responded to an enthusiast giving their ft getting his delectation into the development that he was “just drawing you to set of foot”.
Because of their first date, Kelly picked Fox right up inside a beneficial Cadillac and you will grabbed this lady having a flower-petal-thrown picnic on the LA’s Topanga Canyon in which they ate sushi and you may “breathed both”. It next had for each other’s labels inked into on their own. Zero PDA happens unavoided, whenever Fox released an Instagram of their vacation help, she did very on the caption “new desk at that sky bnb watched several things ??”. The pair turned up for the release of Kelly’s nail polish range chained together with her thru the nails.
Fox and Kelly do not consider themselves just another partners. Predicated on Fox they may not be just soulmates, however, “twin flames”, that’s “in which a spirit enjoys ascended into a high sufficient level one to it can be put into several different authorities in one time”.
Immediately following another pandemic year gave united states the rise of the “typical star” in the form of bland influencers such as Addison Rae doing lackluster TikTok dances, this new get back of a few actual rockstar decisions is actually refreshing, actually aspirational.
It signup fellow beautiful-girlfriend-and-pop-punk-boyfriend partners Kourtney Kardashian and you may Travis Barker, plus the fresh new (rationally, temporary) connection out of Kim Kardashian and you can Pete Davidson, who had been very first saw holding practical an effective rollercoaster, into the signaling the conclusion dour please-respect-our very own privacy partnerships plus the get back from youthful, adolescent power concerning individual you may be that have.
But Fox’s reference to Kelly seems to not just features delivered this lady contentment, but unwittingly as well as helped so you can relaunch this lady because a major superstar, again returned to mag top covers
Kelly reciprocates Fox’s reverence: he advised Howard Tight that he “failed to know what [love] was up to myself along with her made visual communication”. Possibly he can not faith their fortune – he is, at all, planning to wed a woman whose prints the guy wear his adolescent room wall.
Fox has already established an extended enchantment away from the spotlight. She claims she experienced ridiculed of the motion picture business for speaking away resistant to the way she is actually handled to the set in this new early days away from the girl acting occupation. “I believe such I found myself brand of aside plus in front of the #MeToo movement till the #MeToo path took place, I happened to be speaking out and stating, ‘Hi, these products is happening in my opinion and perhaps they are perhaps not Ok,’” Fox told you in the a good 2019 interview having Diablo Coady exactly who she caused to the flick Jennifer’s Human anatomy. “And everyone are instance, ‘Oh really, shag you. We don’t proper care, you deserve they.’”
Some one rating difficulty to have “being well-known for being well-known” but if stars commonly planning to do anything indeed of use such as for example redistributing their money permit them to about continue all of us entertained because of the wear vials each and every other’s blood. “Some people provide, such, good handkerchief on the mate otherwise any sort of,” Kelly said of the current made available to your by Fox very early on in their dating to make sure that he might keep their close whenever you are she flew abroad to possess work. “She application des rencontres asexuelles gave me the lady DNA.” Maybe not since the times of Pamela Anderson and you may Tommy Lee provides we viewed for example unbridled, unhinged horniness. | <urn:uuid:e2e50f40-dd35-448e-8b75-49794b824e74> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://facultades.uh.cu/blog/2022/09/06/then-i-used-boths-bloodstream-megan-foxs/ | 2023-09-30T00:10:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.963968 | 1,392 |
Random Room Roulette # 5 =
Kimberley will attempt to combine her knowledge into contrasting aspects of artistic studies: History of Art and Contemporary Art and Theory. Her challenge = to pick a room of the National Gallery, London at random and find a painting there, whether it be Gothic, Renaissance, Impressionist or Medieval in style, to analyse using contemporary theory.
Can she achieve a deeper level of interpretation? Or will such a random task disintegrate into nonsensical ramblings??
Random Room Roulette # 5 = Room 35 : Hogarth and British Painting
Thomas Gainsborough, “The Painter’s daughters with a cat”, 1760-1761
Room 35 boasts the 18th century achievements of the wishful, hardworking Brits as they attempted to match the painterly standards of their European contemporaries. Here, the Brits fight back for the limelight.
“The Painter’s daughters with a cat” in particular demonstrates Thomas Gainsborough’s break for creative freedom, conveying directness and sympathy with his subjects, in contrast to his conventionally economic and assured paintings.
Gainsborough’s unfinished painting can be seen as examining the fluidity between contrasting spatial planes. His delicate brushstrokes and divine lighting techniques create a smooth dialogue between figure and ground; his daughters look at peace in relation to the sublime background – Gainsborough’s love for his daughters is transposed in the heavenly tonal qualities and gentle linear distributions in the painting.
The girls are represented together, but also autonomously; their individuality is clear and the personal affection Gainsborough felt for them both is translated onto the canvas’ surface. This notion of personality and essence adds a further dimension to the image of memory, perception and the timelessness of art. The figures are unfinished, reduced, in order to discuss authenticity and the changing aesthetics and essence of humanity. Free brushstrokes and loose, linear representation permits enthused spectatorship and comments on changing aesthetics and the truth of representation. The exposed brush techniques, under-drawings and individual strokes that are on show in the painting can be seen as demonstrative of Gainsborough’s reliance on materials, the fabrication of images and the perception of others. Therefore the viewer is asked to question their own materialism, their relationships with loved ones and re-evaluate their ideas of personality, truth and authorship.
Whilst all these statements are not strictly true, and were unquestionably not the artist’s intention, they do demonstrate the manner in which loose, vague contemporary theory can be applied to any image, and it kind of makes sense. This analysis does not aim to bring a new level of interpretation but instead aims to critique contemporary art press releases and commentaries. Here, the phrases, terminologies and assumptions used are those that crop up in contemporary art brochures all the time, and when applied to say, a photography exhibition or a piece of modernism or abstraction, they offer insight and relevance, they are also jargon that with only a little imagination, can be applied to almost any image. Any insinuation or critique surrounding authorship or identity is easily adhered to modern art, but often ends up limiting the spectator’s own interpretations, so beware!

One of the problems with running a Onewheel in a hot climate or up a steep hill is the risk of overheating either the battery or the motor. Overheating has not been a frequent problem with the XR but has become an increasing issue with the Onewheel GT. In the manual it’s stated that riding up a steep hill might overheat the Onewheel and void the warranty, this is a real issue.
The Onewheel GT is the most powerful board from Future Motions with its 3-horsepower. The downside with the upgraded battery, powertrain, and the increase in power of the motor is an increase in heat generation. Riders have had overheated boards indicating that the heat dissipation of the GT is not built to handle extreme environments. The XR, with less power, uses the same stator as the GT but hasn’t shown the same issues of overheating.
The Onerwheel GT has a built-in high-temperature shutoff to ensure that you are not damaging the board. This will limit you on a hot day or if you are pushing the board to the extreme. Here are some ways to reduce the risk of overheating the board.
All will void the warranty of your board as you will need to disable or modify the board in some way. Do everything at your own risk.
Badgerwheel Thermal kit
The thermal kit from Badgerwheel focuses on increasing the existing thermal dissipations that are already built into the board. Their test has shown that sanding down the coating increases the contact area and heat dissipation between the axle, axle block, and rail. This modification can drop the GT motor temps by 15 degrees F in hard riding conditions.
Doing this will require paint stripping, sanding, and leveling of mating surfaces of the axle, axle block, and rail.
A detailed guide can be found at Badgerwheel:
Badgerwheel GT Thermal Kit
Ferrofluid Inside The Motor
Ferrofluids are used to help transfer heat from the coils inside the motor to the magnets and hub. Cooling down the motor and also increasing the efficiency. This is done by bridging the air gap between the magnets and the stator (Read more about Ferrofluids here). This has been used in the bicycle community for a long time and now has come to the Onewheel community.
Armor-Dilloz is the first company to sell and market ferrofluid specifically for the Onewheel, as they have done with their Red Armor-Dilloz Onewheel Tire Sealant. Their new product is the ArmorChilloz FluxFluid a hydrocarbon-based ferrofluid that retails for $30.00, read more about ArmorChilloz FluxFluid. The Product has been shown to drastically reduce the heat of the motor and drop the temperature by several degree Fahrenheit.
While the manufacturer behind the product has given all assurances that this product is safe and suitable for Onewheels there simply isn’t sufficient specific data for us to be 100% confident in the long-term performance of this product inside the hub motor.
Replacement Motor Cover With Cooling Fins
Replacement motor cover with cooling fins on the outside to help with the heat. This is a collaboration with Tech Rails, Bob Nicholson (Bob’s Stoke Shop, SLS).
The motor covers are machined from solid 6061-T6 aluminum and are a direct replacement for the stock cast aluminum cover. Other benefits are that they are anodized rather than powder-coated to promote motor cooling.
Custom Motor Axle Blocks With Heatsinks
Tech Rails have been working on a more robust axle block that would address the heating issue at its root with a couple of benefits compared to the stock block. Not only do they increase the cooling with integrated fins they are also adding strength to the axle.
The axle carriers come with shims to use the stock GT wheel or the XR wheel on the GT and still be centered within the frame.
Add Heatsinks To The Axle
Adding heat sinks to the axle has shown some great results to dissipate the heat from the motor. The sinks help with increasing the surface area and also are better located for airflow compare to the rails. Manu users have rail guards that decrease the heat dissipation from the board.
The setup uses aluminum heatsinks designed for small electric motors that get glued to the axle with thermal conductive glue.
Land-Surf has developed their Onewheel GT axle heat sinks with the Stone Cold Chillers. The Stone Cold Chillers heat sinks will lower the motor temps by 20-30 degrees Fahrenheit (11,1-16,7°C).
Add Heat Sinks To The Wheel Disc
There is a user who has added heat sinks to the wheel disc with Steel Reinforced Epoxy, another option would be to pair it with thermal conductive glue. It’s reported to lower the Onewheel GT motor temperature by around 15-20 degrees cooler.
How To Check The Temperature
The Onewheel motor temperature, controller and battery temperature can be found in the diagnostics section of the Onewheel application.
- Battery Temperature
- Controller Temperature
- Motor Temperature
There are reports of overheating XR, even if it’s not as common as on the Onewheel GT. Riders have reported that an overheated motor can make the motor squeak as the heat makes the metal expand a little, the result is a tighter fit on the bearings that caused the sound. Letting the board cool down will make the metal contrast and come back to normal.
The frame is designed to be used as a heat sink for the hub motor, where the heat is transported away with the help of the axle.

The National Championship Game will be littered with future NFL players and these are the top draft-eligible prospects on Alabama and Clemson.
When Alabama and Clemson take the field on Monday for the National Championship Game, many NFL scouts and general managers will be watching. Many of the headliners in the game like quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Trevor Lawrence as well as skill position players Jerry Jeudy, Travis Etienne and Justyn Ross, there will be plenty of players who will be playing on Sundays in the near future.
As for the players who will be hoping to hear their name called in April’s draft, the best prospect playing in the National Championship Game is Alabama defensive lineman and Outland winner, Quinner Williams.
He kicks off the list of the top NFL Draft prospects to keep an eye on Monday night that could be playing for your favorite NFL team next season.
1. Quinnen Williams, Defensive Lineman, Alabama
Williams is considered by many to be the most NFL-ready player to come out with this year’s NFL Draft class, and his reputation is topped only by that of Ohio State’s Nick Bosa. However, the Crimson Tide is playing in the National Championship, and the Buckeyes aren’t, so Williams makes the list as who I think will be the highest drafted player on this list.
Williams has big star potential and excels as a rush-man on the interior in almost any defensive setting. Williams has had an incredible season so far from the Tide and has been essential unblockable for opposing guards thanks to great hands, a strong physicality, and size-defying speed off the line of scrimmage. Look for Williams to go very early in the first round.
2. Clelin Ferrell, Edge-Rusher, Clemson
The NCAA class of 2019 is stacked with talent at the defensive line. In other years, guys like Ferrell and Williams may go as the top prospects overall. Their potential shouldn’t be short-changed, however, as they each have the ability to transform a franchise, and their draft positions will show that.
Ferrell has been one of the most impressive linemen Clemson has seen in recent years, and his consistency is almost unmatched. He matches excellent power with shifty moves on the line. Ferrell is just about as complete a player as you can hope for after his four years at Clemson (though he will graduate as a junior) where he has played all 14 games in each of his last three seasons, accumulating 27 sacks to go with 49 tackles for loss. He could be a nice pick in the Top 10 of the draft. | <urn:uuid:2b5011e8-fd17-45fa-86bf-d92288355c0f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://fansided.com/2019/01/07/nfl-draft-prospects-alabama-clemson-national-championship/ | 2023-09-29T23:49:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.976373 | 540 |

Federico Higuain scored in the 84th minute and Frederic Brillant in the first minute of stoppage time to lift 10-man D.C. United to a 2-2 draw with Toronto FC in the twice-postponed Group C match of the MLS is Back Tournament near Orlando.
After Ayo Akinola gave Toronto (1-0-2 season, 0-0-1 tournament) the lead with goals in the 12th and 44th minutes, D.C. (1-1-1, 0-0-1) rallied when Higuain highlighted his D.C. debut by halving the deficit with a sublime 20-yard chip after a through ball by Felipe.
Higuain scored 55 goals for the Columbus Crew in 193 games before his off-season signing.
Brillant’s goal came after he powered a header following a header by Steve Birnbaum from Felipe’s free kick.
In the last minute of the match, D.C. goalkeeper Bill Hamid pushed away a shot by Akinola.
The first half ended ominously for D.C. After Akinola made it 2-0, Ola Kamara’s header was denied by Toronto goalkeeper Quentin Westberg with a reactionary right-hand save in the first minute of stoppage time. In the sixth minute, D.C. midfielder Junior Moreno received a red card.
The match was originally scheduled for Friday night but was moved to Sunday after Toronto’s arrival to Florida was delayed because of added coronavirus testing.
Then, it was postponed again just before kickoff Sunday after COVID-19 testing on Saturday showed a D.C. player was positive and the result for a Toronto player was inconclusive.
Results for second round of tests could not be completed in time for the game on Sunday. It was later revealed that both players tested negative, however, they were not permitted to play Monday.
Under the revised schedule, Toronto will next play the Montreal Impact on Thursday while D.C. faces the New England Revolution on Friday. | <urn:uuid:5d634d31-42da-4b79-b9c6-57d90c0cb287> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://fastdcsports.com/2020/07/13/it-took-3-days-but-dc-united-rallies-for-draw-with-toronto/ | 2023-09-29T23:18:23Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.969246 | 437 |
“There’s almost nothing I love more than being in the hunt during a pursuit,” American Chloe Levins wrote in an email to FasterSkier on Saturday. “I’m prepared. I’m hungry.”
Two days after placing sixth in the junior women’s 12.5-kilometer individual on Thursday, Levins, 19, raced to seventh place in Saturday’s 7.5 k sprint, which will put her in seventh (and within 10 seconds of fourth place) for the start of Sunday’s 10 k pursuit at the International Biathlon Union (IBU) Junior World Championships in Otepää, Estonia.
Last year, Levins raced to fourth in the 7.5 k pursuit at 2017 IBU Youth World Championships. So it’s safe to say she has fond memories of that race format.
On Saturday, Levins, a Middlebury College sophomore, started the 7.5 k sprint in 20th out of 70 women. She missed one of her prone targets, having to ski a penalty lap, and cleaned standing to cross the finish line in second place, just 1.5 seconds behind Russia’s Emma Timerbulatova in first. While both were ultimately bumped to sixth and seventh, respectively, by the time all 70 racers had finished, Levins’s course time still held up as the eighth fastest. Her shooting was among the best, too, with only five women cleaning the two-stage race.
“There’s been a consistent stream of wind on this range all week long,” Levins explained in the email. “It didn’t fail to show up today either. Ski conditions were perfect. The snow was cold but fast, and it got faster throughout the day.”
When asked about the course, she recalled a term her coach Algis Shalna used to describe it: “workhorse”.
“That’s exactly what it is,” she wrote. “It’s a traditional course with long hills and few transitions. I don’t really have a course profile preference, but working over the top of these hills pushes me past my limits every time.”
Levins described being able to handle the “steady and relatively calm” wind conditions without many technical adjustments. After hitting all five targets in her standing stage, all she could do was smile as she returned to the course, she wrote.
“It was a very rhythmic shooting that gave me some momentum leading into the last loop,” Levins recalled. “Our staff and even some of the youth athletes were everywhere on course today, which really helped me gain time on a Russian athlete who left the range 15sec ahead of me at the split.
“I had the biggest support system in the entire field today,” she added. “I hope they had as much fun during the competition as I did.”
At the finish, Levins tried to process any time she lost on the course and the time gap between her and first place at the time.
“My brain immediately went to analyzing the race in search of 1.5 lost seconds,” Levins wrote. “Since the temperatures have been so cold this week, they made all the races 20 second intervals. It was unfortunate that I had to maneuver my way around two groups of at least four competitors along the track on my last loop.”
In the end, she ended up seventh, 1:31.7 minutes behind Poland’s Kamila Żuk, who won in 22:32.5 with one standing penalty (0+1). Żuk also won Thursday’s 12.5 k individual.
On Sunday, Levins will start the pursuit 1:32 behind Żuk and just 10 seconds behind Russia’s Valeriia Vasnetcova in fourth place. Markéta Davidová of the Czech Republic will head out of the gate second, 26 seconds behind Żuk, and France’s Myrtille Begue will start third, 52 seconds back. While Davidová made up for two penalties in Saturday’s sprint with the second-fastest course time (behind Żuk in first), Begue shot clean and skied the fifth-fastest course time.
Canada’s Megan Bankes placed ninth for her third-straight race of the championships, after finishing ninth in the junior women’s 3 x 6 k relay and ninth in the 12.5 k individual. On Saturday, she had two penalties, one in each stage (1+1), and finished 1:49.5 minutes out of first with the (you guessed it) ninth-fastest course time.
Bankes will start the pursuit 1:50 back and just 4 seconds behind Norway’s Marit Ishol Skogan in eighth.
Her teammate Nadia Moser finished 21st (+2:46.2), also with two penalties (0+2), Emily Dickson finished 36th (+3:50.5) with two penalties (1+1), and Canada’s fourth woman Zoë Pekos narrowly missed the pursuit cutoff in 66th (+6:22.4) with four misses (3+1).
In the junior men’s 10 k sprint that followed, Canada’s Trevor Kiers achieved his best result at his second Junior Worlds in 16th (+1:34.9) with two penalties (2+0). Kiers, 20, previously broke through in 10th and 11th this season in IBU Junior Cup sprints. Last year at Junior World Championships, his best non-relay result was 39th in the pursuit.
So far in Otepää, Kiers had finished 77th in the 15 k individual and 17th with his team in the 4 x 7.5 k relay.
“I found it really hard mentally after the relay and individual,” Kiers wrote in an email. “But after a ton of self-reflection, I realised that I put too much pressure on myself to shoot well and perform. I simply didn’t trust myself. After the individual, I had one training session to regain my confidence, and I was able to do just that. I took 60 very focused shots, and only missed 1 prone and 3 standing over the whole session, and the last 30 were clean! I came into today’s race feeling very confident in my shooting, and knew that I could perform, and not allow that pressure to reach me. To go out and have a fun time, and my instincts would kick in, and the shooting would fall into place.”
On the range, Kiers’s shooting and range times ranked 13th and 14th overall, respectively. As he entered his first prone shooting stage, he recalled that he consciously freed his mind of any expectations.
“After I shot off my first, the casing got stuck in my chamber and I feel it through off my relaxed sort of focus, but I know that my last two shots were just me being silly,” Kiers wrote. “I knew that the next bout would be good, I had convinced myself that standing would be a breeze, just let my body do what it knows how to do.”
His next time in the range, he cleaned his standing bout.
“Not only did I clean it, but quickly too!” Kiers wrote. “I was one of the fastest shooters of the day, and can reflect back knowing that I didn’t rush, just that it felt good. Heading out on skis, I knew that I still had a shot at a good result, when I went up one of the first long climbs, out wax tech was yelling at me that I was definitely still in it, that I was still skiing on par, and that I could pull this back together! Having that near the beginning of the loop definitely set me up well mentally for the second loop, to keep the grind on, and that I wouldn’t give up any seconds.”
Based on his shooting, he was confident he could be in the top 20. As the 16th starter, Kiers crossed the finish line in sixth, but some 72 men were still on course. Ultimately, he finished 16th, 1:34.9 behind Russia’s Vasilii Tomshin, who shot clean to win in 25:01.8.
“When I heard that I got 16th I was super happy!” Kiers wrote. “From the previous races I’ve done this year, I knew that cleaning a race could land me in the top 10, and once I finished with 2 misses, I reckoned that it would probably be a top 25, maybe a top 20, but I apparently skied faster than I thought possible! … Today, I held my own on skis, and proved that I deserve to be up here with the big guns!”
Looking back on his progression in the sport, he described it as “insane”.
“… Before two years ago (May of 2016) I had never had a biathlon coach, and did all my training on my own in my backyard range that I built,” he explained. “But I was able to prove myself at the 2016 nationals that February and landed a spot on [Biathlon Alberta Training Center]. BATC has changed a lot about how I had gone about things before, and I think that last year was the time to get used to a full time training lifestyle, and this was the year to start performing, and showing what it has done for me.”
Kiers will start Sunday’s 12.5 k pursuit in 16th, 1:35 behind Tomshin and seven seconds behind Germany’s Tim Grotian in 15th. France’s Martin Perrillat Bottonet (who had one penalty in the sprint) will start second, 21 seconds back, and Norway’s Sverre Dahlen Aspenes (who missed two) will head out third, eight seconds later.
“I am super excited to see what I can do tomorrow, but to be truthful, I don’t have any expectations as far as results go,” Kiers wrote. “My expectations are to simply go out there, have some fun, dance to a few songs during warm-up, and see where that takes me. I am really looking forward to leaving everything I’ve got out on the track, being the last race of the championships, no holding back, have no regrets after I finish.”
Canada had two in the top 30 with Adam Runnalls in 26th (+2:08.3) with three penalties (1+2). Teo Sanchez also qualified for the pursuit by tying for 53rd (+3:19.2) with one penalty (1+0), while Angus Tweedie placed 69th (+4:41.3) with three misses (+4:41.3).
Cody Johnson shot clean to lead the Americans in 37th (+2:31.1). Tim Cunningham finished 71st (+5:13.5) with seven misses, Jacob Pearson was 79th (+6:24.2) with two penalties (1+1) and Cam Christiansen in 86th (+7:52.5) with three penalties (1+2).

Many Ukrainian entrepreneurs who were/are in group 3 of the single tax with a rate of 2% are concerned about the question of whether the amount of income received during the period of stay at 2% will be taken into account in the annual limit, and how the limit itself will be calculated.
It is worth noting that the income received during the period of application of group 3 with a rate of 2% is not included in the amount of income determined by the PKU for the corresponding group of single tax payers. However, Bill No. 8401 reduces the limits in proportion to the period of stay/refusal from 2%.
If the FOP in 2023 was a single tax payer of group 3 with a rate of 2%, then after returning from August 1, 2023 to the group/rate of the single tax in which it was before the transition to 2%, the income limit for the period August – December 2023 is for single tax payers:
- for 1 group – UAH 466,208.33;
- for the 2nd group – UAH 2,328,250;
- for the 3rd group – UAH 3,257,875.
The amount of income received before August 1, 2023 for the period January-July 2023 is not included in the limits.
If the FOP refused the 3rd group with the 2% rate before August 1, 2023, the income limit is calculated in proportion to the number of calendar months of the current calendar year, during which the single tax payer did not apply the special regime (the 3rd group with the 2% rate).
That is, if you refused the 3rd group with a rate of 2% from 07/01/2023, then the amount of your limit is divided by 12 and multiplied by 6 months, the limit for July-December 2023 in this case will be for single tax payers:
- for 1 group – UAH 559,450;
- for the 2nd group – UAH 2,793,900;
- for the 3rd group – UAH 3,909,450.
If the FOP in 2023 did not transfer and was not in the 3rd group with a 2% rate, but remained an ordinary single tax payer, then the income limits for 2023 remain unchanged:
- for 1 group – UAH 1,118,900;
- for the 2nd group – UAH 5,587,800;
- for the 3rd group – UAH 7,818,900. | <urn:uuid:b83605bb-03c7-45a2-b71d-7cf53a246cf6> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://fbs-tax.com/en/mediacenter/news-en/income-limits-for-single-tax-payers-in-2023-have-been-established/ | 2023-09-30T00:47:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.972672 | 532 |

λ CHAIR (ALL IN ONE LANDA CHAIR)
it is user-friendly and highly efficient and performs a number of functions in the form of a device, yet in addition to the beauty required, it is easy to use and easily portable inside a car or on a motorcycle. It can be kept in the least possible space when not needed. The aim is to design a folding chair with multiple functions that is more complete, lighter, cheaper and more technologically advanced than previous models. The user can use this chair with minimal force and knowledge. Easily converted to any functionality, it has a display for playback of songs and videos, and can act as a navigator with GPS connectivity (route display) if needed, and has the ability to send emergency location and message requests to emergency assistance. (especially for the elderly and children). In the front wheels of the chair, the power generating system is installed and in the seating chamber, a light battery is projected to be stored for LCD and LED lights on the device and mobile charging. To make the carrier’s performance different from the child carriage or wheelchair performance, requiring two different rear wheels, the two one- directed -wheel-drive models are designed for the carrier and swivel for the rest and are easily interchangeable, marked inside the pictures. Inside the support of the panel, a shopping bag and a stroller canopy are intended to be easily opened and mounted when needed. For safety and convenience at night, on both sides of the rear base, two rear lamps of LED and on the SUPPORT is a bright LED to illuminate the path are deployed.
The idea can be implemented using metal, wood, or synthetic materials, but the main materials of bases are metal, which can be steel, aluminum, or iron. Two small generators projected in front wheels will be used to produce electricity and their power will be stored and used in lightweight batteries embedded in the seating chamber. The idea can also be built in a small workshop it does not need sophisticated technology. Of course, there is an option of installing a solar cell on the seating chamber and support and can be used on other conditions to produce electricity for the panel.
This device is designed in the size of an ordinary chair and has different weights with different materials but in the lightest case, it is built with aluminum in bases and natural, or artificial light wood and dense plastic.

Books, Books, and More Books
I’m still roughly on my “book a day diet” through the end of the year. The last few were really good, with one exception. Here are my quick reviews in case you are looking for something to read soon.
Things I’ve Learned from Women Who’ve Dumped Me: This was hilarious. I’ve only been dumped a few times (since I’ve only had a few girlfriends) so I mostly got to live vicariously through the people telling these stories. There are some good life lessons, some excellent rants, some brilliant writing, and some really nasty breakups. I’m glad I hadn’t read this book when I was in junior high school or else I probably would have become a monk.
Strategic Intuition: The Creative Spark in Human Achievement: Bill Duggan was the keynote speaker at Defrag this year and was dynamite. Everyone got a copy of his book Strategic Intuition; I finally got around to reading it. The book was a good as his presentation as is one of the best “medium format” business books that I’ve read in the last few years. Duggan’s notion of Strategic Intuition is a fresh view on how strategy works for anyone that’s been living in the Porter five forces and value chain world for the past 20 years.
Imagining MIT: Designing a Campus for the Twenty-First Century: Whenever I think of the architecture of MIT, the things that come to mind are the Infinite Corridor, The Great Dome, The Green Building, Kresge, and Building 20. William Mitchell, who was the Dean of Architecture and the special adviser to MIT’s President Chuck Vest during the great MIT building boom of the 1990’s and early 2000’s, has written (and illustrated) a beautiful book describing the history of MIT’s architecture going back to the inception of the Institute. He then goes deep in his descriptions of the creation and the architecture of five new buildings: Zesiger Sport and Fitness Center (by Kevin Roche), Simmons Hall (by Steve Holl), Stata Center (by Frank Gehry), Brain and Cognitive Sciences Complex (by Charles Correa), and the new Media Laboratory (Fumihiko Maki).
Shopping for Porcupine: A Life in Arctic Alaska: My wife Amy is from Alaska and we spend a lot of time there. I’ve only been north of the Arctic Circle once for a disastrous canoe trip on the John River in the Brooks Range, but I’m been north of Fairbanks a couple of times and get a sense of both the massive scale and the emptiness of Northern Alaska. Seth Kanter has written and illustrated one of my favorite books of 2008 about his life growing up and living as an adult in the far northern reaches of Alaska. All I can say is “wow.” If you think you know wilderness living, buy this book.
The World Without Us: I had forgotten how this book ended up in my infinite pile of books to read until Amy reminded me that she had bought it, along with several others, for one of our Life Dinner dates earlier this year. It has an interesting premise; what would happen to “the world” if all humans vanished overnight. I got about half way through it and got bored with the longwinded explanations. Another book that if was was half as long would be twice as good.
I’m definitely starting to feel the need for some mental floss between now and the end of the year. | <urn:uuid:0fd558c8-f239-4a5c-9b15-2ec6a9a8568b> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://feld.com/archives/2008/12/books-books-and-more-books/ | 2023-09-30T00:39:40Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.973685 | 754 |

Today, one in every 5 couples suffers from infertility (struggle to conceive), and therefore fertility is a growing concern. But the fertilityworld in Imphal (Manipur) treats those folks turning to the medical community for help and the number of babies conceived with fertility treatment is on the rise: IVF success rate in India.

What is IVF treatment?
What is IVF technology? In-Vitro fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technique (ART) whereby the female eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and fertilized with the male sperm in a specialized laboratory under the culture medium. The resultant fertilized egg (embryo) is allowed to grow in a protected environment for some days (3rd or 5th) before being re-implants into the woman’s uterus for conceiving the pregnancy- IVF Implantation Process in India.
Who should go for IVF treatments?
It is a strong decision to try IVF treatments for couples with infertility. Firstly, they need to be sure of having a child. IVF is the best option for those infertile couples hoping to experience parenthood. Couples having the following infertility factors should go for IVF treatments:
- What are the signs of Infertility in Males?
- Male with low sperm count
- Female with ovulation problems due to conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS diet and pregnancy).
- Women with fallopian tube problems- blocked fallopian tubes.
- If either of you has been sterilized due to health issues or genetic disorders.
- Female with endometriosis
- Couples wish to avoid passing on inherited genetic disorders to the child.
- Couples with foamy urine in the morning.
What is the process of IVF treatments?
IVF treatment processing is simple and easy but it requires a fragile and very skilled embryologist to make it happen successfully. The IVF Process step by step procedure includes the following:
Step1- Ovulation Stimulation: In this step, patients are given self-administer hormones for boosting their production of eggs. After administration with hormones, she is monitored with blood tests, and an ultrasound of the ovaries tracks this response.
Step2- Egg retrieval: The stimulated eggs are retrieved by the embryologist (What is Embryologist?) under mild sedation with a hollow needle attached to the ultrasound probe. After egg retrieval, the medication is given to prepare the lining of the womb, to align with the embryo implant. Eggs can sometimes be stored if you want to delay the process of becoming pregnant via Egg freezing.
Step3- Sperm collection: The male partner is asked to produce a semen sample at the time of egg retrieval. The specimen is washed thoroughly, and the sperms that show maximum motility are selected. Such sperms can be used fresh for fertilizing the egg or frozen and used later for IVF.
Step4- Fertilization process: Retrieved eggs and the collected sperms are combined in Petri dishes or in a test tube in a laboratory under the culture medium to get fertilized by conventional insemination. However, if the sperm is weak due to male infertility issues then the sperm is injected directly into the middle of the egg by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) techniques. Then, the eggs are regularly monitored to confirm their fertilization by the embryologists and check for their growth and viability for implantation.
Step5- Embryo Implantation: The embryo transfer is done after 3 days of fertilization (four-to-eight cells) or embryos are often transferred on the 5th day of fertilization (blastocyst transfer). For this, a small catheter is inserted through the cervix and places the embryo in the uterus. If the procedure is successful, it takes about 6-10 days for the implantation to occur.
What is embryo cryopreservation?
The embryologist checks for any remaining extra embryos viable for cryopreservation (freezing) by having consent from the prospective couples. The Embryo cryopreservation gives patients who wish to have another child the option to have an embryo transferred at a later date without having to complete another IVF cycle, or it can be donated or compensated to other infertile couples who need an embryo donation. Also, if more than 2 embryos develop, the surplus can be frozen for use in subsequent cycles.
Step6- Confirming Pregnancy: After 2 weeks of embryo implantation, a blood test is performed for pregnancy testing. If this test is positive, the patient is considered a positive pregnancy.
How long does it take for IVF treatment?
The complete procedure of IVF per cycle can take 4 to 6 weeks.
Any reasons for IVF treatment failure?
Some couples may be wondering ‘What is the reason for IVF Failure?’. We have experienced many couples who have received IVF success rates but all are not the same fate. IVF, is a very emotional subject for those who are aspiring to be parents but the IVF success rates can be affected by various factors some of which are:
- Advanced female Age: As women grow older, their eggs decrease in quality and quantity. Women up to the age of 35 have the highest chance of IVF success rates with live birth.”
- Embryo Quality: Sometimes, the embryos can appear healthy in the lab, but when implanted into the uterus there is a possibility that they fail to implant due to an invisible defect.
- Ovarian Response: Some women’s ovaries do not respond correctly to this follicle-stimulating hormone medication and thus fail to produce multiple eggs for collection. However, if a poor ovarian response happens, it doesn’t mean it’s the end of the IVF treatment. The ovarian reserve is assessed with a blood test for the Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) and an ultrasound scan looking at the antral follicle count. The ovarian reserve would determine the best protocol and dose of the hormone to stimulate your ovaries and produce a reasonable number of eggs.”
- Implantation problems: This could be because of the presence of uterine polyps, a premature increase in progesterone levels, an endometrial lining that is too thin, or an infection of the uterus.
- Lifestyle: If you smoke, it is wise to quit a few months before you begin IVF, as smoking is shown to negatively impact fertility. Achieving a healthy weight will also benefit you, as well as maintaining a nutritious diet and exercising regularly.
- Chromosomal Abnormalities: IVF treatment can fail if the embryos have chromosomal abnormalities (missing, extra, or irregular portion of chromosomal DNA). The body then rejects the embryo and this results in IVF failure. Chromosomal abnormalities are most likely to be present in the embryos of women over the age of 35.
Different methods of IVF treatments in Imphal, Manipur
IVF with Donor Eggs: Donor Egg IVF treatment is an appropriate option for those women unable to get pregnant with their eggs, provided there is no contraindication to carrying a pregnancy. Egg donation is a growing option, with thousands of moms turning to it every year. Donor egg IVF treatments are used in the following factors:
- Advanced age,
- Diminished ovarian reserve,
- Premature ovarian failure either unexplained or,
- Autoimmune disorders, chemotherapy, or surgical menopause.
- Women who possess a genetic mutation.
Egg donation is a method of assisted reproduction in which a woman donates her eggs (oocytes) to another woman to have a baby. IVF with Donor eggs procedure is the same as the basic IVF process except the eggs are retrieved from the donor rather than the prospective mother and combined with the male partner’s sperm or with donor sperm.
IVF with Donor Sperms in Imphal, Manipur?
IVF with Donated sperm is offered to couples where there is no possibility of retrieving sperm naturally or by a surgical procedure because of male infertility factors. The donor sperm is used to either inseminate the woman (IUI) or to fertilize her eggs in an IVF process. As is obvious, the couple is counseled together about the implications and process involved in such treatment. The sperm samples are collected from fertile donors that have been screened for viral infections and common genetic disorders. No fresh donors or known donors are ever used. The samples are identified by a number code provided by the sperm bank or via semen Cryopreservation Bank.
Who uses Donor Assistance for IVF, Generally?
Some people, couples, and single parents may choose to use donor sperm or donor eggs in IVF treatments. For example:
- If a couple is at risk of passing on a serious genetic disorder to their children, they may be advised to use donor sperm or donor eggs.
- People with cancer sometimes arrange to have their healthy eggs or sperm frozen, as chemotherapy and radiotherapy can harm your fertility.
IVF with self gametes (self eggs and self sperm)
This type of IVF involves the use of only the self gametes i.e. using own eggs and own partner sperms, combined and fertilized (Embryo). The embryo is then re-implanted into the woman’s uterus (Womb) and carries the pregnancy. To undergo self-cycle IVF treatment:
- The best age for women is between 21 and 35 years old. Male fertility is possible beyond 45 Years old.
- Women between 1 to 1.6ng/mL AMH level and Male with sperm 15*10(6)/mm of semen.
IVF with laser-assisted hatching
Laser-assisted hatching is a technique that is used along with IVF treatment. This procedure involves creating a tiny hole in the embryo’s outer shell before the embryo transfers into the uterus. This hole helps the embryo to “hatch” from its outer shell more easily.
Know this; to get pregnant, the embryo must hatch and attach to the lining of the uterus. Laser-assisted hatching is an advanced treatment in making the embryo a head start and increasing its chances of hatching and implantation in the uterus. Laser-Assisted hatching is used primarily for those who’ve had several failed IVF cycles.
IVF with ICSI treatments in Imphal, Manipur
ICSI- Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection is a specialized form of IVF that is used primarily for the treatment of male sub-infertility. The process involves injecting a single sperm directly into the middle of the mature egg to assist in fertilization.
How do intracytoplasmic sperm injections (ICSI) work?
There are 2 ways where an egg can be fertilized by the IVF process that is:
- Traditional and ICSI- In traditional IVF, 50k or more swimming sperm are placed next to the egg in a laboratory. Fertilization occurs when one of the sperm enters the cytoplasm of the egg.
- In the ICSI process, a tiny needle, called a micropipette, is used to inject a single sperm into the center of the egg. With either traditional IVF Vs. ICSI, once fertilization occurs, the fertilized egg (an embryo) grows in a laboratory for 1 to 5 days before it is transferred to the woman’s uterus (womb).
IUI is artificial insemination, it is also sometimes called donor insemination, or alternative insemination. It is a simple procedure that injects sperm directly inside the uterus of the female partner, it helps healthy sperm get closer to the egg and get fertilized.
How does Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) work?
IUI is a simple and low-tech procedure and is less expensive than other types of fertility treatments. It increases your chances of pregnancy, but everyone’s body is different, so there’s no guarantee that IUI will work. IUI works by placing the sperm cells directly into the uterus around the time of ovulating, helping the sperm get closer to the egg. This cuts down on the time and distance sperm has to travel, making it easier to fertilize the egg.
Before having the insemination procedure, fertility medicines are used that stimulate ovulation. Semen is collected from the partner or a donor. It goes through a process called “sperm washing” that collects a concentrated amount of healthy sperm from the semen. Then our doctor puts the sperm right into the uterus. Pregnancy happens when sperm fertilizes the egg and the fertilized egg implants in the lining of your uterus.

Pizzagate: From Rumor to Delusion
“Pizzagate: From Rumor to Delusion” is an experimental documentary that uses what Neidich refers to as the QAnon documentary style found on Youtube in order to discuss our post-truth society. To do this he focuses on the Pizzagate fake news scandal which took place during the 2016 American presidential campaign. . The Pizzagate rumor was a conspiracy theory that went viral and falsely accused Hillary Clinton and her 2016’s campaign associates of of running a child sex ring based in the basement of the Comet Ping Pong pizza parlor in Washington D.C. As a consequence some have suggested that she lost the presidential election. The owner, James Alefantis and the staff of the pizzeria have been harassed and even been victims of a gun shooting. Warren Neidich’s work associates the Pizzagate incident to the Society of the Spectacle and cognitive capitalism in which the mind and brain have become the new factories of the 21st society. The mental laborer or cognitariat is subject to new dispositifs of power some of which act directly on the material brain.
Neidich currently works between New York City and Berlin. Over the past five years, American artist Warren Neidich has used written texts, neon light sculptures, paintings and photographs to create cross-pollinating conceptual works that reflect upon situations at the border zones of art, science, and social justice. He is founder and director of the Saas-Fee Summer Institute of Art, which will focus this summer on “Deep Ecology in the Cognitive Capitalocene,” in collaboration with The Brooklyn Rail. Selected solo and group exhibitions include the Venice Biennale, Whitney Museum of American Art, P.S.1 MOMA, museums and galleries all over the world. His work has been the subject of over 150 magazine and newspaper articles. Recent awards include Stiftung Kunstfonds NEUSTART KULTUR (2020 and 2021), Hauptstadtkulturfonds (2021), and Katalogförderung des Berliner Senats (2017). | <urn:uuid:fa254666-cd14-4d0f-af65-20e6fabd6a29> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://festival.dac.taipei/en/artwork/pizzagate-from-rumor-to-delusion/ | 2023-09-29T22:55:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.930004 | 446 |

This will be a creative day exploring different colour and how it makes us feel. Chance to try out different art materials like watercolour, acrylics or chalk. All that is required is an open mind willing to explore.
3. Tuesday En Plein Air Painting Landscape (Full Day)
En plein air painting is the French expression for “in the open air” and we will be outdoors using the stunning location of Figs on the Funcho as inspiration for creating some plein air landscape painting. Firstly, the morning will be used to work together and discuss how to select your landscape, then compose a painting or drawing while on location.

Recognition and Measurement of Bonds
The initial accounting and measurement of bonds is undertaken in the following way.
When the bond is issued, it could be issued at par, discount or premium depending on the difference between the market interest rate and the bond’s coupon rate.
The initial issuance of the bond impacts the balance sheet and the cash flow statement as follows:
|Balance Sheet||Both assets and liabilities are increased by the amount of sales proceeds.On the asset side, the cash is increasedOn the liability side, a liability called Bonds Payable.For a par bond, this is equal to the face value of the bond.For a discount/premium bond, this is equal to the amount based on the current market price. The amount is shown as Face Value +/- Premium or Discount.|

A soup kitchen feeding the homeless and hungry in central London has issued an urgent appeal for financial help after experiencing its busiest day ever where they struggled to serve a long queue of people while maintaining social distancing to stop the spread of the coronavirus.
Alex Brown the director of the long running Soup Kitchen at the back of the American International Church on Tottenham Court Road told Fitzrovia News they had fed 149 people in a single lunchtime on Wednesday 1 April.
“It’s tough at the moment, it really is. People are more desperate now than I’ve ever seen them,” he said.
“With all of the closures, our numbers have increased even more and so many of them are new faces. We’ve seen the extremely young — those aged 18 to 21 — and many pensioners. We’ve seen people come in who obviously haven’t been sleeping rough very long and some who look like they’re right on the cusp of homelessness.
“We had 149 people in for a hot meal today, which was a new record for us, unfortunately, but we fed them all, one by one,” he said.
During the period October to December 2019 outreach teams recorded 3,637 individuals sleeping rough across London — an 11 percent increase on the previous year.
The coronavirus has had a huge impact on the services available for rough sleepers, with many places forced to close or operate in a restricted way.
Now the staff at the Soup Kitchen have to manage the huge queue of people and have put up signs to keep people two metres apart as they wait along Whitfield Street.
“Our only aim right now is to make sure we can feed people in a safe and sustainable manner. We are, quite literally, one of the last places in Central London that are still feeding the homeless and vulnerable every day and we need to make sure we can continue that,” says Brown.
Usually the Kitchen opens and people can come in and sit down, have a meal, socialise, and get some clean clothes. But now they have to control how many people they let in and keep people apart.
“We’ve gone to a takeaway system for our friends, so they come in initially and get a brown bag containing hot soup, a sandwich, porridge, a piece of fruit and a snack bar. After that, they’re able to grab a hot lunch and often times, we’ll be able to give them a meal that they can eat later, for dinner.”
Many of the volunteers who help come from the companies working in the area. But now that people are working from home or laid off the Kitchen has to operate with a small group of staff.
“Typically, those companies donate to us based on the number of hours that their employees are here. No volunteers mean no donations, so we’ll suffer a huge shortfall this year,” he says.
He issued an urgent appeal for money to make sure that they can continue to meet the ever increasing demand on their service.
“The one thing we need at the moment, is financial help to make sure we can continue to feed and help so many,” he said.
You can donate to the Soup Kitchen by PayPal, Just Giving, or Virgin Money Giving by visiting the Soup Kitchen website. | <urn:uuid:584bab52-3c8c-4e8a-af56-394617e25a9e> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://fitzrovianews.com/2020/04/01/soup-kitchen-appeals-for-financial-help-after-record-number-of-homeless-and-hungry-people-queue-for-a-meal/ | 2023-09-29T23:27:47Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.971021 | 702 |

Hello! My name is Joan Blasingame, better known as Mrs. B to my family of students and parents. I am a native of Florida who lived 18 years in the breath-taking high country of Colorado, and then relocated to Flagler County. During those years, I was blessed with three absolutely beautiful children and began my educating career. I owned and operated a Creative Learning Center for three years, and then decided I wanted to join the public school system. I returned to Flagler College, completed my teaching degree and began teaching kindergarten, which I continue to do today after 15 years. My three children attended the University of Florida and I am now, along with my kindergartners, a cheering Gator fan. I share the vision of continuing education with all of my students, encouraging them to be life long learners. I have learned so much from the educational community, but most importantly, that we cannot do anything alone. It takes a community to raise a child, and to raise a teacher. We all learn from and encourage each other. Together we can make a difference in all the lives we touch, especially in the little lives!

David Bowie: Self-Portraits And Other Paintings
David Bowie (8 January 1947 – 10 January 2016) was restlessly creative, experimenting with music and fashion, working as a mime artist and a cabaret entertainer, moving into music, acting, glam-rock, banking, video games and painting. Could the energy that Bowie gave to his intriguing melodies, elaborate performances and powerful songwriting strike gold in art? His pop videos, album covers and stage persons were eye catching. Could he do the static stuff that sits in frames as well? Would Bowie’s paintings possess the same power and freshness as that time when 1970s kids saw him illuminate the decade’s uniform brown as Ziggy zoomed into the BBC’s Top of the Pops?
We can take a look. Thanks to Greg Bot of Very Private Gallery, who has shared these paintings with us:

Each year we make a Halloween party that frightens boredom rather than our guests. In 2015, the event went under the name I SCREAM HALLOWEEN PARTY, a name that we associated with one of the performers – the Ice Cream group, which were our singing monsters for the evening with Preyah and Billy The Kid.
Our services for this event:
The results were obvious when I SCREAM HALLOWEEN PARTY became an unforgettable evening for over 1,000 people.
Although with these names the popularity of the event was not the most complicated thing, we also produced a special humorous teaser saying “Get your favorite monster or find a new one on October 31st.” | <urn:uuid:38f484e8-e2be-413d-b494-9093bdef68f6> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://flyevents.bg/i-scream-halloween-party/ | 2023-09-29T23:57:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.972799 | 153 |

In the latter game, a mother and her two children are randomly driving around and stop to picnic on the lawn of a random house. The children enter the house and disappear into a magical mirror that breaks into pieces. The mother travels into several other magic mirrors to reassemble the main mirror and save her kids.
In Mystery Castle, a mother is once again randomly wandering around with her daughter and decides to stop on the lawn of a random castle. An evil wizard of sorts named Grot appears from the castle and whisks her child off to it. When the mother chases after them, she also finds a shattered mirror, but travels into paintings to find its lost shards and save her daughter. Since this is now the second time I have seen this same exact plot in a hidden object game, and in both cases it was neither fun nor compelling, I am hoping I do not come across it a third time.
Too bad you never learn who this creature is or why he was here.
Where Mystery Castle differs from many modern HOGs is that once you enter a room of the castle, you are stuck on that screen until you have completed every available task, save for the optional ones of finding morphing objects (I did not bother finding all of these - with no achievements, I just didn't care). While every screen has multiple areas you can zoom in on, and this may placate players who dislike "wandering back and forth" in HOGs, it's something many reviews of this title have complained about, and I may not have minded it myself if it hadn't stuck so rigidily to a formula for each room that by the end I was finding it tedious and boring.
Every room has a character who's been turned into a ghost by Grot. Every ghost needs you to solve a puzzle so they can be set free. So, you pitter about the room until you've accomplished that, the ghost leaves, and you move onto the next room. All ghosts have voice acting spoken over top of written dialogue that never quite matches up, and both are filled with poor grammar. I guess we know the musician is that because he constantly namedrops the most famous classical composers everyone knows, and we know the Italian chef is that because of his stereotypical accent. What we don't know is exactly why Grot is turning people into ghosts, what that does for him, and why he wants your daughter so badly and doesn't just turn you into a ghost, too. Hooray for the hidden object genre, where the protagonist is almost always completely but inexplicably invincible.
Impressive tin soldiers, just not an impressive game.
The game begins with some very impressive artwork and animation in the first few rooms. You start in a dungeon with intricate skeletal columns and a mysterious orc-like creature chained to the walls. You rescue him, but learn nothing about him, then you're transported into a child's play room that has some of the most detailed and whimsical toy designs I've ever seen. If I filled this review with images from this room, I feel I'd be misleading my readers as it becomes abundantly clear that the game cannot keep up this level of quality. The next area is a music room that has, again, some amazing artwork and a creepy, but well-animated robotic orchestra. But beyond that, the scenery begins devolving into greater levels of mundaneness, ie, a kitchen, a bedroom, a strangely bland garden. I am also unclear as to why this game is dubbed "Platinum Edition", since there is no bonus content.
The ghostly musician knows his composers, but nothing else.
One final word of warning is that if you do decide to play Mystery Castle, many players have reported a bug on the final scene where if you don't gather all items and solve all puzzles before placing the skulls, the scene becomes impossible to finish. So, take heed and don't place any skulls until you're out of other things to do, because trust me, you're not going to want to play through this game again. | <urn:uuid:8da8c82b-cdd3-41f8-a8e2-b2856587d2b8> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://flyingomelette.com/games/hog/reviews/mysterycastle.html | 2023-09-29T23:55:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.97331 | 909 |

I first tried this in Barcelona, pulled out of my host's fridge in a glass baking dish like it was no big thing: roasted peppers and onions and eggplant, swimming in oil, brightened with sherry vinegar. It's like the Catalan answer to ratatouille, and is beautiful on bread. It's also often served with meat and fish dishes. —Marian Bull
medium eggplant (look for a firm one with taut skin)
olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Bread, for serving
Preheat your oven to 350° F.
Wash and dry your vegetables, rub them with olive oil, sprinkle them with a few pinches of salt, and wrap them in foil. Place on a baking sheet, and roast for 2 hours. (Note: You can also just roast them, unwrapped, at 375° F for the same amount of time, or until they're all completely soft.)
Remove from the oven and let cool. Peel the skins off of the eggplant and the peppers. Slice your vegetables into 1/2- to 1-inch slices. Add a pinch of salt, drizzle generously with oil, and add a big splash of sherry vinegar -- start with a teaspoon or two, taste, and adjust to your liking. Serve with bread, cheese, meat, fish -- whatever you like, really. | <urn:uuid:069116eb-8dca-45f9-8605-3e1291b6091c> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://food52.com/recipes/31025-escalivada-catalan-roasted-vegetables | 2023-09-30T00:19:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.949549 | 313 |

Z probe variable speed and multiple probes
Surgikill last edited by
So I have a large corexy style printer and I'm using the IR probe. My g-code is set up so when a print starts, the bed homes at 10mm/s, then each leadscrew point on the bed is probed (4 leadscrews) adjustments are made, then the printer is homed again.
Essentially what I want is for the bed to home at 10mm/s, and then back off 5-10mm, and home again at 2mm/s. Then, the bed tramming routine is run, and I would like it to probe each point X number of times at Y mm/s and take the average. Then, I want it to home again, at 10mm/s then back off 5-10mm and home again at 2mm/s. Is this possible? Do I need to make a custom script to do this?
I've looked around online and all I've seen is editing the f parameter in the m558 command, but that changes the speed for all z probe and home moves.
You can insert the M558 F and A command into your macros right before the probing moves to alter how that specific probe behaves.
M558 A1 F400 ; Set single probing at faster feed rate G30 ; Do a single probe to home our Z axis M98 P"ZSpeedsSlow.g" ; Set lower speeds for homing M558 A10 F100 ; Set multi probing at slower feed rate G30 ; Probe again to get a more accurate position
The backoff distance will be the dive height value of M558 for probing moves.

@phaedrux Might I respectfully suggest that when changing values in homing files from what is configured in config.g, it's generally best practice to put those values back to their configuration values at the end of the homing file. Leaving the probing feed rate at the lower setting probably doesn't matter in the above case but forgetting to restore something like motor currents could be a bit more of a problem. So restoring everything back to configured values is a good habit to get into. | <urn:uuid:3f9889ef-a7a3-4c16-b40e-fbf92e3cc810> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/10268/z-probe-variable-speed-and-multiple-probes | 2023-09-29T23:22:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.899063 | 463 |

Experience with Relationship Break?
my partner and I will need to have some sort of relationship break because he needs to focus on working through grief and loss from his marriage ending. He ended it but feels a lot of confusing emotions and he needs to work through the grief cycle and the feelings of loss and guilt. Since he needs to do that, he cannot really have me in the picture because I tend to be a distraction to him and he likes to avoid grieving anyway.
We will see each other at work but we have decided not to see each other privately for a while and I travel a lot, so the contact will be limited. We care about each other very much, so this is hard for both of us. But if he does not work through his past, he will not be open to a full and clear future. I just hope that I will still be a part in it when he is done.
I am after some advice on how to cope with the relationship break because I am having a really tough time. We said we could communicate, just not emotionally intimately because he needs a clear head to go through his bit. I am really scared about the outcome of this although I believe the way we are with each other and the strong connection we have are signs that we are on a great path together. I would like to understand how long it may take him to work through his pains and how I deal with mine due to the break. I am struggling to keep up a brave face at work and I am really scared that his challenges and the focus he needs to give them will lead to him forgetting me and hence not wanting to be with me anymore on the other side. I tell myself that people who go to a war zone for a while do not stop loving each other either but since he has not worked through his past, he has never told me that he loves me. Although I feel his actions have often suggested it.
Does anyone have experience with relationship breaks (for good reasons, not following arguments and crises). We miss each other already and we have only just started. I am not sure how much contact would be counterproductive for his healing process. But at the same time, I don't know how little communication would be too little and hence risk the relationship to fall over because we do not talk to each other. Help, please.
My heart goes out to you as love and fear (to some degree) create some conflict within.
It sounds as though the 2 significant things your partner faces in life are 1) positive constructive evolution and 2) reformation (2 sides of the same coin). It appears that you're now facing this yourself: Evolution is a natural part of us, hence the discomfort of waiting. Re-forming yourself into someone other than 'she who waits' definitely offers challenges.
Personally, I see love as being found in positive constructive evolution. Investing in ways which have our self or another evolve, is an expression of love. In your case, you're both investing in a love that incorporates support and a form of personal freedom/distance. During this time, is it possible that whilst you inspire him to evolve in positive ways you inspire yourself to evolve as well? This way, this time becomes about self love, for you. You're not waiting, you're consciously growing (like him). It can become a highly productive time for you, taking some of the focus off the waiting aspect.
The reformation part can be an exciting part of evolution. Whilst he re-identifies himself positively by moving through the process of grief and guilt, you can take the opportunity to re-identify your own self in ways that excite you. I find one of the keys to reformation is found in the use of 'I am':
- I am someone who waits can become I am someone who adventures through new experiences. Adding ventures to life is all about interacting with life
- I am someone who misses him can become I am someone who is drawn to discover more about myself. Whether this is done through something as outside the square as yoga or meditation classes for example, it can become about getting to know more about the power of your mind, body and spirit (aka sense of connection to life). This becomes a powerful time in your life, as opposed to powerless
- I am someone who is having trouble coping with this break can become I am someone who will create a clear management plan for this stage of the relationship. Whether the plan involves connecting once a week over dinner (public place with no temptations) and discussing each other's progress, I believe you are entitled to have a say in how this break plays out. If he wants the relationship to evolve, it takes 2 to make this happen constructively
Reforming our identity through conscious constructive evolutionary ways can lead us to the liberating place of 'I love myself'.
Thank you so much, TheRising,
I really appreciate you taking the time to respond and I agree wholeheartedly. I want to start focusing on me again, just like I did when I got out of a bad marriage. I was very happy with my evolution then and believe there is never an end to personal evolution and re-definition.
I am wondering a few things though and I would really appreciate if somebody said yay or nay. We are both very loving with each other - kind, warm, cuddly, caring. The main reason why were are taking the break is because he cannot commit fully to me while he has not dealt with his past (and in the process, found himself). Do you think that there is a chance that we will find back to each other once we have progressed on our own? We are telling each other that we will, so is that a real chance? Can people come back together to each other after they have worked through what they needed to work through?
I wish I could speak to someone about the connection I / we feel with each other and whether that means anything special. We had known each other for three years without any specific attraction other than that we liked to work with each other. Then, one day, we spent a bit more time together and subsequently, by the end of the day, something had clicked like a switch had been flicked. It was the same for both of us and from then on, we were drawn to each other like there was an invisible band between us. Does that mean anything at all?
For sure, things can actually work out well. That's always a possibility, especially if the bond is so strong. Actually, the relationship may end up being stronger than ever before and you could both find yourselves even more attracted to each other than you already are.
If you think about what makes someone attractive, without necessarily factoring in typical appearance based things, wisdom, a greater sense of joy and maturity, the excitement of self-discovery and open-mindedness are just some of the many aspects. These are things you are both setting out to achieve, individually. In coming back together, you may find yourselves to be a united powerhouse of positive energy and mutual inspiration.
That invisible band remains, as long as both stay positively connected through your growth.
Take care of yourself
me again. I am confused. My partner and I are about to have at least five weeks apart which will be good considering he needs time and space to deal with his past marriage. But he keeps contacting me, writing beautiful emails, sending me messages and calling. I love it because it is all very sweet but I am now fearful that he just distracts himself from all the unpleasant feelings he is so afraid of. At the moment, he is scared of the darkness and silence in his house. So I am worried that he writes emails to me because he does not want to cope with the feelings of being alone. I do not want to be a distraction although I know he truly cares about me. But I fear that if I continue communicating so much with him, we will still be in the same unresolved situation in three or six months. I am also starting to doubt whether his communication is because of his feelings for me, or his avoidance of unpleasant feelings. That does not make me feel very good because ideally, I would like to know that someone cares 100% about me.
What should I do? We get along wonderfully and I know he would never want to hurt me. But I wonder sometimes whether he actually realises what he is doing. Should I tell him that I think it is best to minimise contact for the next few weeks so he can focus on himself?
I hope you don’t mind me jumping in 🙂 I read through your posts and completely understand that you are torn on what to do. It sounds like you’ve got a lot of thoughts going through your head about what the best option is. I can imagine how overwhelming that must be.
On one hand, you want to love
and support him through dealing with the grief from his past marriage and on
the other hand you want to give him his space so he can do this properly without
any distraction. I can see how that would feel so conflicting for you. Do you feel it has to be either all one way or
the other, or would there be some kind of middle ground you could think about?
You mentioned that you worry about having contact because it may mean that he does not want to cope with the feelings of being alone. I think it’s normal for people not to want to feel alone during emotionally difficult times. It might be helpful to reframe the thoughts you have around having contact with him - you may see yourself as distracting him from dealing with these past issues, but he may see you as a support during the time he is taking to deal with them – I can’t speak on behalf of either of you, but this may be worthwhile discussing with him to get some clarity.
From your previous posts it sounds like you both have an amazing connection which I’m sure a lot of people strive for in their lives. You’ve obviously been a great support for him thus far, and it sounds like he plays an extremely important role in your life as well. Personally, I know having loved ones around me through difficult times only gives me strength.
You asked whether you should tell him that it’s best to minimise contact over the next few weeks so that he can focus on himself… Rather than telling him, could it be useful to have a discussion around what his needs are and what your needs are over the next few weeks (or even the next few days)? Both of your feelings and needs are equally valid and important.
I'm glad you decided to check back in and I hope this helps to a certain extent - ultimately I think these decision can only be made through open and honest communication.
thank you so much for your support so far, I hope you are well and content.
My partner and I have begun to be on our break. We communicate sporadically which is beautiful but we do not see each other because we are both travelling for work at the moment. It has been good because he is finally facing the painful feelings and thoughts more. But he is beating himself up a lot over little things. For example, not wanting to have his cold shower in the morning and not having the energy to turn the tap to cold water. He is very self-critical and believes he is weak and should be able to live his normal routine. I believe he is mildly depressed at the moment, sometimes he has difficulties getting up etc. He speaks to his psych about this and the psych mentioned that he doesn't think my partner has healed yet.
My question is, how does the healing come about? Is it purely living through it more? Will it be a very long process to get better and be kind to himself? He also still needs to deal with a lot of negative feelings about his wife and the past that was unpleasant. I guess, I am interested in whether he is on the right track or whether there is something that could help him work through this more constructively. I am sad that he is so self-critical and I told him that I wished he could see himself through my eyes because I think he is absolutely wonderful and amazing. But that does not help much, I guess, so I wonder what else might help.
He spent the last weekend away and it was good. He has started journalling and finds it cathartic, which is great. He is going to visit a friend in another state for the whole of next week, so hopefully he can have a happier time. Are all these things helping or will they distract him from the actual issue, I mean will the time away with his friend stop him from working through his pain? I do not want him to come back and face a total wall of sadness again. I would love to know that he can gain some much needed energy to be in a better headspace when he comes back to face his life and past here. Is there anything I can do? And how long might this last? I am not in a rush, I would just love to know how long it has taken others on average to get through their grief. It took me three months while I was still with my husband, but it seems a bit more severe for my partner. Will there be any improvement at all along the way? And if so, when does that kick in?
I believe wholeheartedly that we can't evolve without facing disappointment here and there. Whilst many of us are taught that disappointment is generally a negative experience, it can actually be a constructive liberating process if undertaken consciously. Working through disappointment generally frees us to become someone else. I'll give you an example:
- I appoint myself the role of 'wife' and all that I believe this role entails. I also appoint my partner to the role of 'husband' and all I believe that entails. These roles are jam packed with personal beliefs. If my husband was to do something that deeply challenged my belief about what a 'husband' should be, I can face disappointment in 2 ways: I can dis-appoint him from the role of 'husband' (aka divorce) or I can dis-appoint myself from committing to certain personal beliefs that won't allow me to move beyond the issue. Either way, my life changes.
Whether we've been dis-appointed from a relationship (through separation or divorce), dis-appointed from a job (through being let go) or dis-appointed from appearing youthful (through the natural aging process), most forms of disappointment will ask that we alter our belief systems about our self and our expectations. Disappointment will typically ask us to re-identify our self and that which surrounds us. If we refuse to re-identify then I believe we can be left stuck in the role of 'he/she who holds on to the outdated'. We're left holding onto who we could have been or should have been or how life could have been or should have been.
Forgiving can allow us to move forward, through the act of giving our self release from outdated beliefs and the energies that keep us connected to them. Appointing new roles in life means living our way into a new self.
By the way, I imagine the visit to see his friend may help with moving forward. Just be careful that returning home doesn't see him re-turn to that sense of self or identity that relates to suffering. Turning toward the person he wants to be should be a key focus.
Thank you so much, SammiSam and TheRising,
I am really grateful. I just spoke to my partner as he is about to go on a week's trip to visit his friend in another state. I think that is really good because he is fairly depressed at the moment and I believe his good friend will give him some energy back. His psychologist thinks so, too. Do you believe that a change of scenery and some happy times can help him? And will that be lasting or will he go back into deeper depression when he returns to his dreaded place that reminds him of everything?
Also, I told him that I will not be in touch with him because I want him to have all the time he wants and needs while he is away. I will be away when he returns, so I told him he does not need to get in touch and that I give him the reigns so he can choose whether he would like to be in touch or not. He agrees that it may be good because otherwise he distracts himself with happy thoughts about me. It was all very lovely and warm, and we said goodbye following up with lots of sweet messages. My question now is, is that the right way? I really do not want to get in the way while he is going through the worst. He says, he is having a pretty bad time right now and he needs to get through it. I want to make sure he is not affected by me, so he can do what is right for him.
Do you think this is a good way forward? He says the feelings for me are definitely there and he would always be honest if something changed. We are so loving with each other. Do you think that his grief may lead to him losing his feelings for me? He tells me I am wonderful, that he feels warm and happy whenever he hears my voice or reads from me and sends lots of kissing emojis. Do you think that could simply disappear while he goes through his emotional pain? I guess, I am just getting a little scared sometimes that he might suddenly tell me his feelings are gone. Is that likely considering that everything looks as if he loves me as much as I love him?
I believe in us and that we have an extraordinary connection but I am scared of what this grief will do with him. So I am not sure whether I am just too anxious and what we are doing is the right steps or whether I am missing something I should be observant of. Am I doing the right thing by telling him that I will not be in touch for a few weeks but that he can be if he likes? Am I giving him space properly?
How can I move past my constant fear of losing him and look after myself in the process. | <urn:uuid:0732cd0d-18c3-40b6-9feb-06fa2f293b2f> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/relationship-and-family-issues/experience-with-relationship-break/td-p/471944 | 2023-09-30T00:44:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.985927 | 3,776 |

Sucks if you break your leg... but atleast you'll still contribute to society by manufacturing glue for people though.Matt said:Man, it must be good to be a race horse. Run around in circles a few times when you're young then you have a life of constant sex to look forward to.

Slipknot said:Yeah, if you're a good breed they'll keep you around... if not... you're probably screwed.
Haha, you're a regular Hitler. All the men of the good breed... the Aryans, will stay and live a great life and produce mass numbers of Aryan babies for the Nazi military force. All the Jews (the bad breeds) will be taken out. Heh.Matt said:Meh...I say if one in every five men can be kept around for a life of nothing but sex, then the other four must take one for the team.

Quick Question. How do I keep a Blueprint alive throughout the game life cycle.
Basically my blueprint calls some functions of a cpp class which takes care of networking (TCP/IP) and I can’t create sockets again and again for every map. So I want to keep blueprint alive throughout the game and use its functions whenever required.
I am a newbie in Unreal4. In Unity I used to do Don’tDestroyOnLoad for Gameobjects for this type of purpose.
Please help me out on this.
Guies if you check this question and you don’t know the answer please upvote it, increasing chances of getting an answer.
if you write the functions you need access to throughout the entire game in a GameInstance class, then in your project settings, in maps & modes, set your GameInstance class to the custom one you created, you’ll be able to do what you are asking about.
Thanks man thats what I was looking for. I am moving my blueprint content which I want to keep in GameInstance Class.
So I did what you suggested. Its working in a way but my blueprint wants a reference to an item in scene and I want to keep that item in all levels without losing its references, values. How can I do it? | <urn:uuid:f7c5fd53-5c8d-45d5-8970-d6f625f3553b> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/how-to-keep-blueprint-alive-throughout-the-game-lifecycle/346760 | 2023-09-30T00:13:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.925729 | 273 |

The Supreme Court review of a battle between the parents of a child with autism and his Colorado school district could help raise the standards of education for some of the more than 6 million schoolchildren with disabilities across the United States.
Federal law guarantees students with disabilities a free appropriate public education, but precisely what that means isn’t well defined. Federal judges often have had different interpretations of what they’re entitled to, which leads to better education and more services for children with disabilities in some states than in others.
The legal battle largely boils down to whether children with disabilities are entitled to “some educational benefit,” as the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in the Colorado case, or whether schools should meet a higher standard and provide a “meaningful benefit” to students, as federal appellate courts in the 3rd and 6th circuits have ruled in cases from Pennsylvania and Tennessee. The 10th Circuit, court wrote that, “Although the ‘meaningful benefit’ standard is purportedly higher than the ‘some benefit’ standard, the difference between them — that is, how much more benefit a student must receive for it to be meaningful — is not clear.”
Parents and advocates for students with disabilities cringe at the idea of the nation’s children with disabilities receiving an education that is only of “some benefit” to them. “Can you imagine being parents and being told your child might not have access to a meaningful level of care? How is that even a question?”

Talent signatures + theatre tickets needed for Aqua Shard’s ‘Take Two Christmas Auction’, raising money for Theatre Support Fund
Last year Aqua Shard collaborated with Performance Designer Soutra Gilmour and Chris Marcus to create a Christmas tree, made up with 800 hundred paintbrushes, as a celebration of craftworkers in London’s theatre industry and to raise awareness of their plight throughout the pandemic. The tree was only displayed for a few short weeks before December’s lockdown forced it to close. Following a tumultuous 2021, the need to support the theatre community has not diminished and so in the spirit of sustainability, the tree will be relaunched and the paintbrushes auctioned off to raise money for Theatre Support Fund, co-founded by Chris Marcus.
For the auction, Aqua Shard is hoping to get the paintbrushes signed by stars of the stage. If you are working with any suitable names please get in touch Georgia.lowther@aqua-

Monrovia — The Plenary of the Liberian Senate has passed into law the ‘Controlled Drug and Substances Act of 2014’’. The Senate took the decision in its Session last Thursday, November 10, 2022, following hours of debate among Senators.
Taking the decision, the Senate categorized drug crime into two categories, hence making it non-bailable and bailable depending on the gravity of the crime.
In the wisdom of the Senate, those who are involved in the importation, distribution, massive production, and custody of illicit drugs shall not be granted the right to bail when caught in the act, while the end users of the drug shall have the right to a bail when apprehended in the act.
The passage of the Act was preceded by a report from the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Claim and Petition, accompanied by a motion filed by Grand Bassa County Senator Nyonblee Karnga-Lawrence.
Meanwhile, President Pro Tempore Albert Chie, has appointed a Conference Committee to work with the House of Representatives in harmonizing key components of the Act, which was previously passed by the House of Representatives for onward submission to the Senate for concurrence.
Those appointed to the Conference Committee include Senators Varney G. Sherman of Grand Cape Mount County, Nyonblee Karnga Lawrence of Grand Bassa County, Augustine Chea of Sinoe County, Steve A. Zargo and Joseph K. Jallah of Lofa County.
In another development, the Senate has taken a short break until November 22, 2022, as a result of the conduct of the National Population and Housing Census, which was expected to begin last Friday.
The Senate took the decision upon signing of a resolution to approve the census from November 11, 2022, to November 22, 2022, in order to afford Senators, the opportunity to return to their various counties so as to be enumerated (counted). | <urn:uuid:3a6fe047-33b8-4486-be3c-0221dda2479d> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://frontpageafricaonline.com/news/liberia-senate-passes-controlled-drugs-law/ | 2023-09-30T00:35:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510529.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20230929222230-20230930012230-00099.warc.gz | en | 0.961206 | 394 |
