Here is a news article: Tokyo (CNN) Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced Monday he will visit Pearl Harbor in late December with President Barack Obama, 75 years after Japan's attack on Hawaii in 1941.
He will be the first Japanese leader to visit the site since the end of World War II.
Speaking to reporters on Monday evening, Abe implied the visit was in return for Obama visiting Hiroshima earlier this year
"President Obama's message for the world without nuclear upon his visit to Hiroshima was engraved in the heart of the Japanese people," he said.
"I will visit Pearl Harbor with President Obama. This will be a visit to soothe the souls of the victims. We should never repeat the ravages of the war."
The surprise attack on December 7, 1941, killed more than 2,000 Americans and triggered the entry of the US into World War II.
The announcement coincides with the 75th anniversary of the battle on Wednesday.
US President Barack Obama walks with Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe as they arrive at Ise-Jingu Shrine in the city of Ise in Mie prefecture, on May 26.
A 'significant' gesture from Japan
Speaking to CNN, Tokyo-based Asia Strategy founder Keith Henry said it was an "enormous" symbolic gesture on Japan's part.
"It's quite significant -- like so many things in any nation's past, a recognition of (its) occurrence is the first step in terms of creating something new to ensure it never happens again," he said.
Henry said the US-Japan relationship was the "lynchpin" of peace in the Asia region and Abe's move towards reconciliation was an acknowledgment of that.
"The security of both countries is very much tied together, because Asia is a very different place to 20 years ago," he said.
Although Abe will be the first Japanese leader to visit Pearl Harbor he won't be the first member of his family to do so -- his wife, Akie Abe, made a surprise visit in August 2016 to pay tribute.
Obama's historic visit
In May, Obama became the first sitting US President to visit Hiroshima, where the US dropped a nuclear bomb in 1945 that killed more than 100,000 Japanese men, women and children.
Abe's planned visit is a way of reciprocating the commitment shown by Obama to Japan-US relations, said David Warren, an associate fellow of the Asia program at Chatham House in London.

Warren said that the visit would likely be welcomed by most Japanese but was still politically controversial.
"Prime Minister Abe has politicians within his own Liberal Democratic Party who will object to his paying atonement in this way because there are some political voices in Japan who reject the principle of what we see as guilt for causing the war," Warren told CNN.
Warren said that although the visit marked the attack's 75th anniversary, it was also timed ahead of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration.
"I'm sure that Prime Minister Abe will want to send the most powerful message he can in advance of Donald Trump becoming president in January about the importance and strength of the US-Japanese alliance."

Obama put US-Japan relations high on his agenda when he assumed office in 2009. His administration has shown solidarity with Japan through joint military drills as the Asian nation faces nuclear threats from North Korea and a territorial dispute with China over the Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea.
On Obama's visit to Hiroshima in May, the president wrote in the museum's guest book, calling for a "world without nuclear weapons."
"Why do we come to this place, to Hiroshima? We come to ponder the terrible forces unleashed in the not so distant past," Obama said in a speech on the day.
"We come to mourn the dead ... their souls speak to us and ask us to look inward. To take stock of who we are and what we might become." ||||| TOKYO, Japan — Japan's prime minister will visit Pearl Harbor with President Barack Obama this month, becoming the first leader of his country to go to the Hawaii naval base that Japan attacked in 1941.

Shinzo Abe said in a statement released Monday that the purpose of the event was to remember the victims of the aerial attack, which killed more than 2,300 American servicemen and plunged the United States into World War II.
The unexpected announcement came two days before the 75th anniversary of the attack and six months after Obama became the first sitting U.S. president to visit the memorial in Hiroshima for victims of the U.S. atomic bombing of that city.
The White House confirmed Abe's visit to Pearl Harbor would take place Dec. 27, saying in a statement: "The leaders' visit will showcase the power of reconciliation that has turned former adversaries into the closest of allies, united by common interests and shared values."
Abe told reporters he and Obama agreed the historic event when they met on the sidelines of a leaders' summit in Lima, Peru last month.
"The purpose of the visit will be to commemorate the victims," Abe said. "We must never repeat the horrors of war."
He added: "The U.S.-Japan alliance we have now is an alliance of hope where we put our strengths together to tackle a variety of issues facing the world." ||||| At 7:55 a.m. Hawaii time, a Japanese dive bomber bearing the red symbol of the Rising Sun of Japan on its wings appears out of the clouds above the island of Oahu. A swarm of 360 Japanese warplanes followed, descending on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor in a ferocious assault. The surprise attack struck a critical blow against the U.S. Pacific fleet and drew the United States irrevocably into World War II.

With diplomatic negotiations with Japan breaking down, President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his advisers knew that an imminent Japanese attack was probable, but nothing had been done to increase security at the important naval base at Pearl Harbor. It was Sunday morning, and many military personnel had been given passes to attend religious services off base. At 7:02 a.m., two radar operators spotted large groups of aircraft in flight toward the island from the north, but, with a flight of B-17s expected from the United States at the time, they were told to sound no alarm. Thus, the Japanese air assault came as a devastating surprise to the naval base.

Much of the Pacific fleet was rendered useless: Five of eight battleships, three destroyers, and seven other ships were sunk or severely damaged, and more than 200 aircraft were destroyed. A total of 2,400 Americans were killed and 1,200 were wounded, many while valiantly attempting to repulse the attack. Japan’s losses were some 30 planes, five midget submarines, and fewer than 100 men. Fortunately for the United States, all three Pacific fleet carriers were out at sea on training maneuvers. These giant aircraft carriers would have their revenge against Japan six months later at the Battle of Midway, reversing the tide against the previously invincible Japanese navy in a spectacular victory.

The day after Pearl Harbor was bombed, President Roosevelt appeared before a joint session of Congress and declared, “Yesterday, December 7, 1941–a date which will live in infamy–the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.” After a brief and forceful speech, he asked Congress to approve a resolution recognizing the state of war between the United States and Japan. The Senate voted for war against Japan by 82 to 0, and the House of Representatives approved the resolution by a vote of 388 to 1. The sole dissenter was Representative Jeannette Rankin of Montana, a devout pacifist who had also cast a dissenting vote against the U.S. entrance into World War I. Three days later, Germany and Italy declared war against the United States, and the U.S. government responded in kind.
The American contribution to the successful Allied war effort spanned four long years and cost more than 400,000 American lives. ||||| Video
TOKYO — Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said on Monday that he would visit Pearl Harbor, becoming the first sitting Japanese leader to go to the site of Japan’s attack 75 years ago that pulled a stunned United States into World War II.
Mr. Abe said in a televised news conference that he would travel to the American naval base with President Obama during a trip to Hawaii on Dec. 26 and 27.
By visiting Pearl Harbor, Mr. Abe will in effect be reciprocating a historic trip Mr. Obama made in May to Hiroshima, where the United States dropped a nuclear bomb at the end of the war with Japan in 1945. No sitting American president had previously visited the city.
Mr. Abe’s visit will be one of a series of efforts by Japan to come to terms with its wartime history, without engaging in direct apologies. He is in a unique position to carry off the trip, as a nationalist who has been outspoken about Japan’s need to move beyond its history and play a greater role in its own defense.
“We must never repeat the horror of war,” Mr. Abe said on Monday. “I want to express that determination as we look to the future, and at the same time send a message about the value of U.S.-Japanese reconciliation.”

Mr. Abe’s visit will come just a few weeks after the 75th anniversary of the attack, which occurred on Dec. 7, 1941. Carried out by Japanese bombers and fighter planes launched from aircraft carriers that had quietly slipped within striking distance of Hawaii, the attack killed more than 2,000 Americans and sank a number of United States warships, including the battleship Arizona, whose wreck has become a memorial to the battle.
Just as the decision to drop the bomb on Japan to end the war has long been the subject of a fraught moral and political debate in the United States, the decision to attack Pearl Harbor has been enormously delicate in Japan.
Politicians there still pay homage to the “heroes” of Pearl Harbor — meaning the Japanese aviators and others who died in the attack. There is a museum exhibit in their honor at Etajima, an island off Hiroshima, that once served as the Imperial Japanese Naval Academy, a Japanese equivalent of the United States Navy’s training academy at Annapolis.
For decades, politicians have been reluctant to make any statement resembling an apology for the attack, which many in Japan argue was the natural outgrowth of an American-led oil embargo that would have starved the Japanese empire. There are still arguments over the role of Emperor Hirohito in the decision, and that of military officials who had argued at length about the wisdom or dangers of directly drawing the United States into the war.
In 1990, a year after Hirohito’s death, notes were published based on interviews conducted with him shortly after Japan’s surrender.
In the oral history, recorded by one of his aides, Hirohito asserted that if he had tried to stop the attack on Pearl Harbor, “it would have led to a coup d’état” in which he likely would have been assassinated.
“That would have been fine,” said Hirohito, who died of cancer in January 1989 at age 87. But even if he had been killed, he said, “eventually a very violent war would have developed” in which “Japan could have perished.”
The account was based on a series of conversations between Hirohito, known today in Japan as Emperor Showa, and a small group of close aides in 1946, just before the Tokyo war-crimes trials.

In the ensuing years, those interviews added to the continuing historical debate about whether Hirohito had the knowledge or the power to prevent the outbreak of war.
“Indeed, the oil embargo cornered Japan,” Hirohito said, referring to the American-led blockade. “Once the situation had come to this point, it was natural that advocacy for going to war became predominant,” he said. “If, at that time, I suppressed opinions in favor of war, public opinion would have certainly surged, with people asking questions about why Japan should surrender so easily when it had a highly efficient army and navy, well trained over the years.”
In August, Mr. Abe’s wife, Akie, paid a quiet visit to Pearl Harbor and the Arizona memorial, fueling speculation that her husband would follow, although Japanese officials had maintained that there was no plan for him to do so.
Mr. Abe did not elaborate on Monday on his plans for the Pearl Harbor visit, which will be carefully choreographed with American officials. He said he hoped to “comfort the souls of the victims.”
Yet his words will be much-debated and carefully measured. During the 50th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, in 1991, Japanese officials said they were “reflecting deeply” on their nation’s deeds but did not think an apology to the United States was appropriate.
Several American veterans groups said they welcomed Mr. Abe’s visit, regardless of whether he apologizes or not.
“The war is long over and Japan and the United States are now the strongest of allies,” said Joe Davis, a spokesman for the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States.
“Is it imperative that Prime Minister Abe say, ‘We are sorry’? I don’t think so,” said Tony Cordero, founder of Sons and Daughters in Touch, an organization of families of service members who died in combat. “But it is vital that his words and actions demonstrate that regret.”

Josh Earnest, the White House press secretary, said in a statement that Mr. Obama and Mr. Abe would visit the Arizona memorial together to honor those killed at Pearl Harbor.
“The two leaders’ visit will showcase the power of reconciliation that has turned former adversaries into the closest of allies, united by common interests and shared values,” Mr. Earnest said.
The visit will take place in the thick of an American presidential transition that has threatened to inject new instability into international relations in Asia, raised questions over the United States-Japan relationship, and unsettled policy makers in Tokyo.
President-elect Donald J. Trump often took aim at Japan during the campaign, on issues including trade and defense. Mr. Abe’s visit to Mr. Trump’s New York penthouse last month — the Japanese prime minister was the first foreign leader to meet with the president-elect after the Nov. 8 vote — looked to many like a pre-emptive effort to soothe the bilateral relationship. |||||
A summary of this is? | – Right after Christmas comes a first for the US: a Japanese leader will visit Pearl Harbor. The Straits Times reports that PM Shinzo Abe will be in Hawaii for two days at the end of December to meet with President Obama, and he'll make a stop at the site of the December 7, 1941, Japanese attack (Wednesday is the 75th anniversary) where nearly 2,500 troops and civilians died. The visit—which the White House confirmed in a statement will happen on Dec. 27, per NBC News—seems to be a continuation of goodwill after Obama journeyed to Hiroshima in May to "mourn the dead" from the world's first atomic strike. On Monday, Abe spoke about Obama's speech then, saying the president's "message towards a nuclear-free world during his visit to Hiroshima remains etched into Japanese hearts." And now Abe will return the favor. "We must never repeat the horror of war," he said in a televised presser, per the New York Times. "I want to express that determination as we look to the future, and at the same time send a message about the value of US-Japanese reconciliation." No itinerary has been released, with Abe simply saying his intent is to "comfort the souls of the victims." The founder of the Asia Strategy public policy consultancy tells CNN this is an "enormous" symbolic gesture on Abe's part, and that by making this move, he's acknowledging how important US-Japan relations are to keeping peace in Asia. Abe isn't the first member of his family to visit Pearl Harbor: His wife, Akie, paid what the Japan Times deemed a "surprise visit" there in August, paying her respects and spurring speculation that her husband might soon visit himself. | 4 | Flan2021 | multi_news:1.0.0 | zs_opt |

By. Amanda Williams for MailOnline. The conditions are not exactly ideal for batting. But the water logged pitch doesn't deter the two teams involved in this historic cricket match. Members of the Royal Southern Yacht Club and Island Sailing Club faced off in their annual grudge and managed to battle it out for at least an hour before the waves washed in and swamped the pitch. Bramble Bank is a sandbar in the centre of the Solent - the stretch of water between the Isle of Wight and the Hampshire coastline. It is uncovered only once a year - for about an hour - when the lowest tide reveals a temporary 200-metre-long 'pitch'. During that time the two sides, the Royal Southern Yacht Club, from Hamble, Hampshire and the Island Sailing Club, from Cowes on the Isle of Wight, sail out from the opposite coasts for their match. The tradition, which began in the 1950s, includes the teams taking it in turns to win and always ends with a celebratory meal. This year it was the turn of the Islanders, who enjoyed a resounding victory in front of a good crowd. Rival teams from the Royal Southern Yacht Club and The Island Sailing Club compete in a game of cricket on the Brambles Bank sandbank at dawn. The sandy wicket only appears for a few minutes on the lowest tide of the year in the middle of the Solent between Cowes and Southampton - just enough time for a quick game before 'tide stops play' Members of the Royal Southern Yacht Club and Island Sailing Club faced off in their annual grudge manage to battle it out for at least an hour before the waves washed in and swamped the pitch. The sandbank is uncovered only once a year - for about an hour - when the lowest tide reveals a temporary 200-metre-long 'pitch'. During that time the two sides, sail out from the opposite coasts for their match. The players' once immaculate whites look a little worse for wear as the waves wash in to the match. One of the stranger things about an already unusual event is that the rare tide and wind patterns which cause the Bramble Bank lead to a 'mirage' effect, with passing boats seeing cricketers appearing to walk on water. The first few balls are bowled before the 'wicket' appears The match at Brambles Bank sandbank takes place at dawn each year. Inmates from Parkhurst Prison on the Isle of Wight were the first to play cricket on Brambles Bank in the 1950s when prison officers believed the convicts couldn't escape The sailing clubs took up the mantle in 1984 and have been battling it out every year since. This year it was the turn of the Islanders, who enjoyed a resounding victory in front of a good crowd according to ISC sailing secretary Chris Thomas.

By. Emma Glanfield. Pope Francis has hit out at Italian mobsters and warned them they will ‘end up in hell’ if they don’t change their ways and renounce their ‘blood-stained money and blood-stained power’. The pontiff made the stark warning following the death this week of two-year-old Domenico Petruzzelli, his mother Carla Maria Fornari and her partner Cosimo Orlando who were killed in a mob hit after assailants opened fire on their car. Pope Francis addressed the mobsters after a prayer vigil at a Roman church for relatives of innocent people killed by the mafia, during which the names of 842 victims were read aloud. Pope Francis, pictured in Saint Peter Basilica, Vatican, in January, warned Italian mobsters they will go to hell if they don't change their ways and renounce their 'blood-stained money and blood-stained power' After voicing his solidarity with the family members, Francis said he couldn’t leave the service without speaking to those not present: the ‘protagonists’ of mafia violence. Addressing the absentee mafiosi, Francis said: ‘This life that you live now won’t give you pleasure. It won’t give you joy or happiness. ‘Blood-stained money, blood-stained power, you can’t bring it with you to your next life. Repent. ‘There’s still time to not end up in hell, which is what awaits you if you continue on this path.’ Francis has spoken out frequently about the evils of corruption and wrote a short booklet on corruption and sin in 2005 when he was archbishop of Buenos Aires. But this was his first major address to Italian victims of organised crime, who were gathering near Rome for an annual retreat organised by a mafia-fighting priest that takes place annually on March 21. The pontiff even mentioned this week’s tragic hit, which occurred in Palagiano, near Taranto, in the southern Italian region of Puglia, during his address. Cosimo Orlando, 43, left, his partner Carla Maria Fornari, 30, centre, and her son Domenico, right, were killed instantly after hitmen forced their car off the road and then opened fire with machine guns in Palagiano, near Taranto, in the southern Italian region of Puglia, earlier this week. Mafia hitmen shot dead convicted mobster Cosimo Orlando, 43, his girlfriend and her two-year-old son after forcing them off the road in high speed chase. ‘You had a father, a mother. Think of them,’ he said. ‘Weep a little. And convert yourselves.’ Target Cosimo Orlando, 43, his partner Carla Maria Fornari, 30, and her son Domenico, were killed instantly after hitmen forced their car off the road and then opened fire with machine guns riddling it with bullets - amazingly Domenico’s two older brothers, sitting in the backseat, escaped unharmed. All three were killed instantly in the hit which happened late on Monday night and apart from the two children - who are now in police protection - there were no witnesses. A police spokesman said: 'This was a massacre, simple as that. The child stood no chance and was killed instantly along with his mother and Orlando. ‘We are investigating all possibilities -. although we believe that Orlando was probably the intended target we. have to remember that his partner was also married to a murdered. criminal. Amazingly two other children inside the car survived the incident which happened late on Monday night. Police said other than the two youngsters - who are now in police protection - there were no witnesses. 'There could be several motives revenge or drugs both Orlando and Petruzzelli had connections to drugs trafficking and they were both involved with organised crime. 'The only witnesses are the two children who are in a secret location with police and hopefully they will be able to give us some clues.' Mrs Fornari’s first husband and father of the three children, Domenico Petruzzelli, was a known mobster who was murdered three years ago. It is not the first time that children have been innocent victims as a result of mob hits - earlier this year another three-year-old boy was murdered after gunmen targeted a car he was travelling in killing two men as well.

Review: MINOR SPOILERS!
Well i just sat up late and watched this film, mainly because i enjoyed and rated some of Singleton's earlier work like "Boyz n the hood". However, i have to say this was a major disappointment and is everything i hate about contrived, clichéd, so-called "message" movies.
The acting is mainly poor,(pop stars and models do NOT necessarily make good actors...take note), the situations hard to swallow, (rape victim becomes overnight lesbian?...please!), but worst of all it reinforces every screwed up stereotype you can think of. By the second half of the film it has become cartoon like in its characterisation, making you lose any shred of empathy you may have had for its one-dimensional players.
Not once is any valid point made about the inherent causes of racism and cultural, sexual and political ignorance. As a result it merely ends up sensationalising the results of these problems. It's message is contradictory, resulting in a sense of confusion and a general lack of plot cohesion. As for the films conclusion i found it predictable, embarrassing, exploitative and mildly offensive. For a film called "Higher Learning" i have to say all i learned is to avoid seeing this ever again.
If you want a true comment on some of the themes that this film completely fails to elaborate upon then go hire "American History X"....unless you were just watching it for Tyra Banks then go hire a life.

The food was good... But not great. The Tom yum soup with mushroom was awesome but the garlic shrimp dish was a bit bland. Not enough flavors for my personal taste. Also the entrees didn't come with rice... Service was good but not great either. Servers were very friendly but I always had to look for them and wave at them to get my cup filled with water. But I love the atmosphere and their prices which is not bad at all for a restaurant on the strip. So I will come again whenever I crave Thai food.

Background: White Lies are an English post-punk band from Ealing, London. Formerly known as Fear of Flying, the core band members are Harry McVeigh (lead vocals, guitar), Charles Cave (bass guitar and backing vocals), and Jack Lawrence-Brown (drums). The band perform live as a five-piece, when sidemen Tommy Bowen and Rob Lee join the line up. White Lies' musical style has been described as dark yet uplifting by the media, drawing comparisons to Editors, Interpol, Joy Division, and The Killers.
Context: In an interview with NME in January 2013, bassist Charles Cave revealed that the band's third album is intended to be released in late summer, with one of the tracks promoting the record being called "Getting Even". On 4 June 2013 it was revealed that the album, which was produced by Ed Buller and recorded earlier this year, will be titled Big TV. Also, the track list for the album was published and "Getting Even" was released as a free download. The first official single from the album, "There Goes Our Love Again", was released on 5 August 2013, with the album being released in the UK and Europe a week later, on 12 August 2013 through Fiction Records. It was released on 20 August 2013 in the US (through Harvest Records), and in Canada (Universal Music). On 23/24/25 July 2013, White Lies played 3 intimate shows at Hoxton Square Bar & Kitchen in London, celebrating the 5 year anniversary of the band's first ever gig at the same venue. They played tracks from Big TV and some of their earlier songs in front of 300 fans each night. During their Summer/Fall 2013 tour, the band is scheduled to play more than thirty concerts in Europe and North America. In August 2013 they made their Main Stage debut at Reading and Leeds Festivals. On 6 November 2013, the band released a limited edition EP to celebrate their tour, called Small TV. The five-track EP released on Fiction Records was limited to 1000 copies and features covers from Lana Del Rey and Prince in addition to new versions of their own tracks.

Write an article based on this summary:
Use tea for more than just a drink. Exercise every morning. Eat a grapefruit, orange, or lemon in the morning. Put your eye cream or eye mask in the refrigerator to make it cool. Finish out your showers with ten seconds of cold water. Apply eye drops to diminish eye redness.
Article: | The cold and caffeine in tea will bring down any redness, and there are great plant compounds in tea that naturally remove eye puffiness too. Green, black, and chamomile teas are best for their anti-inflammatory properties like caffeine. Brew the tea by steaming water and putting the tea bags in to steep. After a couple minutes, drain the water and pop them in the fridge. Once they have cooled off, place them on your eyelids for twenty minutes. When you first wake up, get your heart pumping with a thirty minute workout. Certain yoga positions that require you to hang upside down, like the downward dog, help to reverse the blood flow which diminishes dark circles that develop under the eyes. It also helps circulation throughout the whole body, adding a healthy color to the face. Exercise boosts energy which will help you look, and feel more awake. Foods made up of white flour or sugar will drag you down and make your skin appear dull. Citrus fruits however, will pick you up because they are packed with vitamin C and can increase energy and alertness. If you don’t want to eat these citrusy fruits, you can get a similar by using lemon-scented body wash. Avoid the freezer because if it gets too cold it could pop blood vessels on your face once it’s applied. To prevent this, only put it in the refrigerator for about five minutes. After you take it out, apply it on your face and leave it on for twenty minutes. Another method for a cooling, de-puffing fix is by using cold spoons. Put two spoons in the fridge before bed and in the morning, lay them over your eyes for about ten minutes. This will not only physically perk you up, but it will give your face and hair an extra shine because the cold water will close your pores and hair cuticles. Also, try letting the water run down directly on your face to boost circulation and restore color to your cheeks. If your eyes are red from allergies, sleepiness, or what have you, a few drops of eye moisturizer in each eye can remove redness. Eye drops should not be used everyday, but on those mornings that you’re seriously in need, a few drops will help restore the white of your eyes. | 8 | Flan2021 | gem/wiki_lingua_english_en:1.1.0 | zs_opt |

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article?
Sex is an important part of a healthy relationship. With the possibility of divorce close at hand, it may be difficult to have a good sex life. But physical and emotional intimacy go hand in hand, and both are equally important if you hope to stave off divorce. Make time for romance. Everyone is busy, but scheduling date nights will give you time to set the mood. Try a romantic candle-lit dinner (either at a restaurant or at home), see a movie, or just go bowling. Before you head to the bedroom, though, it is important to give your spouse the love and attention they have been missing. Tell them you love them and enjoy spending time with them. Place scented candles and flowers around the bedroom. Massage your partner’s hands, feet, and shoulders prior to intercourse. Arousing the senses can be an important first step toward reigniting your partner’s libido. If you feel your sex life is stale, try new positions or try wearing lingerie. You could try reading erotica to one another, or watching porn. Take turns leading the session on alternate nights to ensure maximum variety. In addition to communicating about everyday needs and situations (“We need to do the laundry”), it is important to share your deepest fears, hopes, and dreams with your partner to build emotional intimacy. Use phrases like “I believe...” or “I hope...” when presenting your vision of your and your spouse’s future. Thinking about and sharing these thoughts and feelings can help you both realize that there are possibilities for your marriage beyond divorce. Ask questions of both yourself and your spouse such as: What great things do I think my spouse is capable of? How can I empower them to achieve their best? Where would I like to travel to with my spouse? What am I looking forward to doing with my spouse when I retire? Invite your spouse to share his or her dreams and desires as well. Thinking and talking about your future together helps rectify it. Do not use these conversations to complain or engage in negative thinking. If you’re considering divorce, it’s likely there are real problems for which both of you are partially to blame. Don’t blame your partner for all the problems in your marriage. Have a dialogue with your spouse so you can come to a mutual understanding of what has gone wrong, and how it can be fixed. Express the problems you perceive with “I” statements, as in “I wish we spent more time together,” as opposed to “You never want to spend time with me.” These are less likely to be perceived as critical and will produce more positive results. When blamed unfairly, defend yourself, but don’t counterattack when criticized. Try to see the conflict from your spouse’s point of view. Be generous with your partner in your affections and compliments. This will help rekindle the love you once had together. Fulfill their emotional needs first as well as their material ones. Love your partner the way you want to be loved. Tell your spouse you love them every day. Surprise your spouse with little gifts that they’ll enjoy. Make dinner for them, buy them flowers, or take them shopping. It may take time to rebuild trust and affection for your partner. Be patient and continue to work at it. Talk with your partner about occasions when they hurt or upset you. If you wish, write the list down. This should not be a complete list, but it should include the most painful memories or experiences that you and your partner have held onto, and which have inspired mutual resentment. You and your partner will likely have different lists. Talk about each incident in turn. Each of you should acknowledge how you contributed to the misunderstanding and apologize. Practice forgiveness even if your partner will not. Agree to make changes in your routines or interaction if you feel it will help. Make it clear that you will try your best, but it might take you some time to get used to them. Then, really try your best in implementing the promised changes and show that you are sincere. Ask the same in return. Couples counselling with a therapist will help you work through the problems with a neutral mediator. The therapist provides an objective point of view and can offer advice on communication strategies, conflict resolution, and general guidance on improving a problematic marriage. Couples counselling usually lasts one hour, once a week. Working more often with the counselor might yield more results. Group therapy is another useful type of counselling, and introduces couples going through similar periods of stress to each other for an extended discussion about how they are working through their issues. Group therapy provides the opportunity to gain new understandings and ideas about your own relationship.
Summary: | Reinvigorate your sex life. Talk about your dreams and desires. Identify what needs to change. Strengthen your connection with your spouse. Let go of the past. Be open to change. Seek counselling. | 4 | Flan2021 | gem/wiki_lingua_english_en:1.1.0 | zs_opt |

This film, along with WESTFRONT 1918, are my favorite Pabst-directed films and I enjoyed them more than his much more famous films which starred Louise Brooks (such as PANDORA'S BOX). It's probably because both are very similar to the Neo-Realist films that the Italians perfected in the 1940s and 50s. This style film called for using non-actors (just typical folks) in everyday settings in order to create intensely involving and realistic films.
In this case, the film is about French and German coal miners, so appropriately, the people in the roles seem like miners--not actors. The central conflict as the film begins is that there is a huge mine located on the Franco-German border. Instead of one big mine, it is divided at the border and German workers are not welcome in the French mine, despite there being greater unemployment in Germany. This, language differences (illustrated wonderfully in a dance hall scene) and WWI conspire to create a huge rift between the factions--resulting in a WE vs. THEY mentality. Later, an explosion causes a huge collapse in the French and the Germans refuse to sit back and do nothing. Risking their own lives, they prove that there is true comradeship between miners and men in general.
The film is a strong criticism of xenophobia and tried, in vain, to get the German audiences to see the futility of war and hatred. It was a gorgeously moving film with some of the scariest and claustrophobic images I have ever seen. Considering history, though, the film's impact was minimal at best. It's a real shame, as like this one, WESTFRONT 1918, JÁACCUSE (Gance) and ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT (Milestone) had great messages of peace and harmony but ultimately were failures in positively swaying public opinion. So, from a historical point of view, it's an amazing and sad relic that is well worth seeing.

Select the correct sentiment of the following review: I was impressed by the beautiful photography in this film, which was shot on location in Alaska. Although technically a melodrama, we see lots of activities Eskimos are involved in, such as hunting, dancing, building igloos, etc. And their customs, such as offering their wives to visitors, are routinely in the story. The hunting sequences were sometimes from stock footage, as it was easy to recognize some rear projection scenes of animals, but even these were fascinating. Spear fishing for salmon, hunting for walrus, caribou and even a polar bear and a whale made it seem like a documentary at times. There was no cast listing, which reinforced the documentary flavor. The film-makers tried to make it seem very authentic, with the natives speaking only in an Eskimo language that was either translated by someone on screen or by intertitles. The introduction stated that except for the white traders and the Royal Mounted Canadian Police, there were no actors in the film, but this was not strictly true. The two leading characters, played by Mala and Lotus Long, were Eskimos by birth, but were professional actors with credits for earlier films and you could see sometimes they had makeup on. But they were excellent in their roles and they went on to have Hollywood careers. All in all, the film is definitely worth a look.

Write an article based on this summary:
– Fresh off the news that an FBI report based on months of investigation found no evidence that sound waves could have damaged the health of American diplomats in Cuba, a new twist in the case: Canada on Wednesday said the inexplicable problems haven't let up. The CBC reports that eight Canadians have now suffered headaches, dizziness, and nose bleeds after time in Cuba, with the latest incident occurring just last month. In that case, the afflicted person reported feeling a "wave of pressure." Unlike the Americans, none of the affected have had lasting symptoms or damage. The CBC notes no other countries have reported similar incidents. NBC News reports that the eight Canadians needing medical care came from a pool of 27 who were tested. The US has found 24 Americans to have been mysteriously afflicted, and while the FBI report undermines the idea that a sonic weapon was used, other theories were discussed during a Senate hearing Tuesday. A State Department official said "there's viral, there's ultrasound, there is a range of things that technical experts are looking at." When asked by Sen. Tom Udall if viral meant someone "intentionally implanting a virus," the official answered that it was a possibility.
Article: |
Eight Canadians posted to Cuba have experienced mysterious symptoms such as headaches, dizziness and nose bleeds in recent months, but Global Affairs officials say they are still at a loss to explain what is causing them.
The most recent incident affecting Canadian diplomats and members of their families took place in December. The person affected said they suddenly felt a wave of pressure. Symptoms reported by others have included headaches, dizziness, nose bleeds, loss of balance and sleeplessness. The symptoms reported by the Canadians have not been as severe as those reported by some Americans.
While one person affected continues to experience headaches, Canadian officials said Wednesday there is no indication following medical testing that anyone has experienced permanent damage.
Officials told reporters during a background briefing in Ottawa Wednesday they are in uncharted territory and have never seen anything like it anywhere else in the world. At this point, they said, they haven't ruled out anything, including foul play.
The mysterious ailments, which have triggered speculation worthy of a spy thriller, appear to only be hitting Canadian and American diplomats posted to Havana, Cuba.
U.S. media reported last year that U.S. authorities were investigating the possibility the diplomats and their families had been targeted by some kind of "sonic attack." However, The Associated Press on Monday cited a new FBI report that said the U.S. has found no evidence sonic waves were used.
U.S. officials told a congressional hearing Tuesday they are still working on several theories — including the possibility a virus was used.
Canadian officials said there have been no reports of similar symptoms among staff of other embassies or among Cubans. Nor have there been any reports of unusual symptoms among the thousands of Canadian tourists who visit Cuba every year.
The United States reduced the number of people posted to its embassy in response to the problems reported by 24 U.S. personnel and members of their families.
However, Canadian officials said they have no plans to reduce staff at its embassy. While a small number of diplomats and their families have opted to return to Canada, others have been sent to replace them after being fully briefed.
At the same time, the government has increased security measures around both the embassy and the residences of staff members.
Among the aspects officials have been studying are infrasound, ultrasound and environmental factors. While doctors have determined that some of the symptoms could be produced by auditory trauma, they said there is no known sonic weapon.
The U.S. government warns travellers to Cuba that embassy employees have been targeted by attacks and U.S citizens could be as well — particularly around the Hotel Nacional and Hotel Capri in Havana. The Canadian government is not planning to add a similar warning to its travel advisory.
While the officials did not say it, adding a warning to a travel advisory can have significant repercussions for businesses like insurance companies and airlines.
The first reported symptoms occurred in March 2017 but there was a cluster around May 2017 after the Canadian Embassy was approached by the American Embassy and it began to ask staff if they had experienced anything.
Overall, 27 staff members or their family members went through a medical examination and eight received further followup medical treatment.
The government is also doing baseline testing of those being posted to the embassy in Cuba, including those sent there temporarily, to allow them to determine if there are any future changes.
While a number of American staff said they heard a high-pitched sound before they began experiencing symptoms, only one Canadian reported that kind of sound.
The Canadians reported feeling the symptoms at their homes, rather than at the embassy.
Officials said Cuban officials appear to be as puzzled by the strange symptoms as the Canadians and Americans. ||||| Breaking News Emails Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.

It's not just the U.S. State Department that is baffled by the health problems of diplomats who've worked in Cuba. The Canadian government said Wednesday it also has no idea who or what is behind the mysterious ailments.
At a briefing in Ottawa, a Canadian official said eight of their citizens stationed in Havana, out of 27 tested, required medical care after reporting symptoms that ranged from dizziness and headaches to nosebleeds. Three diplomatic families left Cuba as a result, the official said.
The United States says 24 Americans affiliated with the embassy in Cuba have reported similar symptoms and signs consistent with traumatic brain injury. The State Department recalled all nonemergency personnel in late September and has no plans to return them, straining ties with Cuba.
Cuba has welcomed FBI agents to Havana to investigate. But officials told NBC News that the probe found no evidence of attacks. Additionally, some U.S. officials have questioned whether there's a single cause for the symptoms.
The State Department says the phenomenon is real.
"Is there any thought given to the fact that this is a case of mass hysteria? That a bunch of people are just being hypochondriacs and making it up?” Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., asked during a Senate Foreign Relations subcommittee hearing on Tuesday.
"Twenty-four people have had symptoms and findings consistent with what looks like a mild traumatic brain injury. The objective tests that were done were not ones that could basically be easily faked,” State Department Medical Director Dr. Charles Rosenfarb testified.
"The findings suggest that this is not a case of mass hysteria," he said.
While officials in Washington initially theorized that the staffers and their family members were sickened by some kind of sonic attack, other possible culprits are under investigation.
"I think there’s viral, there’s ultrasound, there is a range of things that technical experts are looking at," Todd Brown, diplomatic security assistant director at the State Department, said during the hearing.
"When you say viral, you are talking about somebody intentionally implanting a virus?" Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M., asked.
"That could be a possibility," Brown said.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has now decided to ratchet up the inquiry and convene an independent panel known as an Accountability Review Board.
At the hearing, Rubio grilled officials on why the board had not been set up earlier, in accordance with law.
"The law very clearly requires that within 60 days of an incident, and 120 days at most, that an accountability review board be stood up and they did not do that until almost a year after the first reports of the attacks,” Rubio told reporters. "That’s unacceptable."
The Cuban government has vociferously denied any involvement in or knowledge of attacks on American and Canadian diplomats.
"There is no evidence of any kind, not of the cause, not of the perpetrators, not of the origin, not of the motivations," a Cuban foreign ministry official, Josefina Vidal Ferreiro, said Tuesday evening. "There is no evidence at all, not one piece of evidence."
Despite the lack of evidence, the State Department said it's "incomprehensible" that leaders in Havana don't know what made the Americans and Canadians sick.
Rubio, an ardent critic of the island's Communist government, agreed.
"We can say we don't know how it happened, we can even say we can't know for sure who did it," he said. "But two things we know for sure: People were hurt, and the Cuban government knows who did it." ||||| | 8 | Flan2021 | multi_news:1.0.0 | zs_opt |

CHAPTER X
MYSTERIES IN MAYFAIR
That night, and for many nights afterwards, Macheson devoted himself to his work in the East End. The fascination of the thing grew upon him; he threw himself into his task with an energy which carried him often out of his own life and made forgetfulness an easy task. Night after night they came, these tired, white-faced women, with a sprinkling of sullen, dejected-looking men; night after night he pleaded and reasoned with them, striving with almost passionate earnestness to show them how to make the best of the poor thing they called life. Gradually his efforts began to tell upon himself. He grew thinner, there were shadows under his eyes, a curious intangible depression seemed to settle upon him. Holderness one night sought him out and insisted upon dinner together.
"Look here, Victor," he said, "I have a bone to pick with you. You'd better listen! Don't sit there staring round the place as though you saw ghosts everywhere."
Macheson smiled mirthlessly.
"But that is just what I do see," he answered. "The conscience of every man who knows must be haunted with them! The ghosts of starving men and unsexed women! What keeps their hands from our throats, Dick?"
"Common sense, you idiot," Holderness answered cheerfully. "There's a refuse heap for every one of nature's functions. You may try to rake it out and cleanse it, but there isn't much to be done. Hang that mission work, Victor! It's broken more hearts than anything else on earth! A man can but do what he may."

The Mexican–American War, also known as the Mexican War and in Mexico the American intervention in Mexico, was an armed conflict between the United States of America and the United Mexican States (Mexico) from 1846 to 1848. It followed in the wake of the 1845 American annexation of the independent Republic of Texas, which Mexico still considered its northeastern province and a part of its territory after its "de facto" secession in the 1836 Texas Revolution a decade earlier.
After its Treaty of Córdoba with obtaining independence in 1821, from the Kingdom of Spain and its Spanish Empire as New Spain for the past 300 years, and a brief experiment with a monarchy government, Mexico became a republic in 1824. It was characterized by considerable instability, leaving it ill-prepared for international conflict only two decades later when war broke out in 1846. Native American raids in Mexico's sparsely settled north in the decades preceding the war prompted the Mexican government to sponsor migration from the U.S.A. on its northeast border (since 1803 with the Louisiana Purchase from the French Empire (France) of Emperor Napoleon I) to the Mexican province of Texas to create a buffer. However, the newly-named "Texians" revolted against the Mexican government of President / dictator Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana, who had usurped the Mexican constitution of 1824, in the subsequent 1836 Texas Revolution, creating a republic not recognized by Mexico, which still claimed it as part of its national territory. In 1845, the Texan Republic agreed to an offer of annexation by the U.S. Congress, and became the 28th state in the Union on December 29 that year.

Article:Hales, who struggled in his debut Test series in South Africa, has seen the likes of Sam Robson score heavily.
"I knew openers would inevitably score runs and put pressure on - that was one of the cons of the decision," he said.
"But if I turned up with half a tank, I wouldn't be giving myself the best chance to cement that England spot."
The 27-year-old, who has been opening at international level in all three forms of the game, averaged 17 in the Tests as England beat the Proteas 2-1.
While many of his England team-mates were cleared to play at the beginning of the Championship season, Hales opted to sit out until Sunday's game against Yorkshire at Trent Bridge.
He is likely to play only twice before England name their squad for the first Test against Sri Lanka, which begins on 19 May.
In his absence, fellow England opener Robson scored a double century and a century for Middlesex against Warwickshire and Durham's Mark Stoneman reached three figures for Durham against Middlesex, while the likes of Ian Bell, James Vince, Adam Lyth and Varun Chopra have also been in the runs.
"In the best part of 24 months I hadn't had more than three weeks off cricket," Hales told BBC Radio 5 live sports extra.
"I was pretty knackered to be honest, probably more mentally tired. It was nice to switch off from the game.
"The most important thing was coming back with a full tank and the desire to score as many runs as I can. The break has 100% done that, so I have no regrets."
Hales, who played limited-overs internationals for England some five years before his Test debut, was selected as captain Alastair Cook's eighth opening partner in three years for the series in South Africa.
Although he only made 136 runs in eight innings, he said he felt at home at the highest level.
"South Africa didn't go to plan, but I didn't feel out of my depth," he said. "It was me making errors rather than thinking that I wasn't good enough.
"If I do carry on at Test level, it's up to me eliminate those mistakes."

Upon his release from prison in 1995, he joined the Brixton Mosque. He later began attending the Finsbury Park Mosque in North London, headed at that time by the anti-American cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri and described as "the heart of the extremist Islamic culture" in Britain. By 1998 Reid was voicing extremist views. At the Finsbury Park Mosque he fell under the sway of "terrorist talent spotters and handlers" allied with al-Qaeda, including Djamal Beghal, one of the leaders of the foiled plan for a 2001 suicide bombing of the American Embassy in Paris. He spent 1999 and 2000 in Pakistan and trained at a terrorist camp in Afghanistan, according to several informants. He may also have attended an anti-American religious training centre in Lahore as a follower of Mubarak Ali Gilani. After his return to Britain, Reid worked to obtain duplicate passports from British government consulates abroad. He lived and travelled in several places in Europe, communicating via an address in Peshawar, Pakistan, in July 2001, Reid flew to Israel.

An alternative concept is that they formed closer to the Sun, where the matter density was higher, and then subsequently migrated to their current orbits after the removal of the gaseous protoplanetary disc. This hypothesis of migration after formation is favoured, due to its ability to better explain the occupancy of the populations of small objects observed in the trans-Neptunian region.

In 1978 the UN Security Council passed UN Resolution 435 which planned a transition toward independence for Namibia. Attempts to persuade South Africa to agree to the plan's implementation were not successful until 1988 when the transition to independence finally started under a diplomatic agreement between South Africa, Angola and Cuba, with the USSR and the USA as observers, under which South Africa agreed to withdraw and demobilise its forces in Namibia.

Choose your answer from:
* Also, chilling soda takes time and effort, so chilling your beverage is essential for making it popular. In addition, chilling soda will simulate a totally different flavor scheme than freezing pop, so you won't have to worry about boring pops during your thirsty rush..
* To see if it will carbonate, prepare to chill the contents in a few ounces of ice water. If you have the required amount of ice water you can fill your drink in a cold bucket..
* This is important, since it takes awhile to carbonate and needs to be refrigerated. If you don't refrigerate your soda, it'll freeze over the course of long days and make you very thirsty after a drinking period..
* You can experiment with flavored club sodas to see how that will affect the taste of the slurpee at the end.

Article: When new correspondence enters your office or when new paperwork is created, you may not be able to file it right away. You should place everything that needs to be filed in a single place to be filed when you are able. A basket on your desk, labeled “To File,” is a good way to set these papers aside until you are ready. If you can, schedule a consistent time each day or week that you can work on filing new papers. If you make filing a regular part of your routine, you are more likely to keep up with it. For example, you might set aside the last half hour of each day to file the day’s papers. If this is not enough time, then you might try doing your filing twice each day, just before you go to lunch and then just before leaving for the day. The keys to success are consistency and repetition. If you are the only person using your files, then you should easily be able to maintain the order that you have created. However, if other people need to use the papers in your files, you should make sure that they understand -- and follow -- the system that you have created. Having a filing system in place is not helpful if papers get misfiled and put into incorrect folders. If may be more efficient and more effective if you offer to get anything that someone else in your office might need, and then ask them to return everything directly to you. Then you can be sure that everything gets refiled correctly. Some special materials may need to be held in separate, special locations. For example, some papers may need to be kept in a safe or in a fireproof lockbox. You may even need to keep some materials off-site, in a bank safety deposit box or at your company’s lawyer’s office. At least once a year, or more frequently if necessary, you should set aside some time to review your files. The purpose of this review is to decide whether there are papers or entire folders that can be discarded or perhaps moved to an off-site storage facility. If something is never going to be needed again, then you should discard it. If it is something that you do not expect to use regularly but may need to keep as a record, then you should send it to storage.

Text: Also, great variety is seen in the Aussie's eye color, and they are often heterochromatic. An early nickname for the breed was ``ghost-eye dog''. Aussie eyes may be any shade of brown, or blue; they may have two differently colored eyes, or even have bicolored or ``split eyes'' (for example, a half-brown, half-blue eye), which appear to be linked to the merle coloration. Merled eyes occur, as well, where one color is mixed in and swirled with another. Any combination of eye color is acceptable in the breed standard, so long as the eyes are healthy. In general, however, black Aussies (self, bi-color, or tri-color) tend to have brown eyes, while red (self, bi-color, or tri-color) Aussies tend to have amber eyes, though these Aussies may also carry the blue-eyed gene.
