We approached the market where there were open stands with fresh fish, shrimp, oysters, lobster, and my favorite- crab. A few stores had cooked crabs and other prepared food like crab cakes, clam chowder, fried catfish, grilled tilapia, and other delectable bites.
One stand had crabs cooked with a special seasoning on top (my guess is paprika, a little cayenne, lots of salt)- and you have your choice of male or female crabs. The best part- the price. You get one sample crab (yes, as in a WHOLE crab for FREE!) then any additional crab is one dollar. Katherine and I cracked them open right there and scraped out all the meat!
Steamed Male Crabs with Secret Spicy/Salty Seasoning
The next place that caught our eye was Jimmy's seafood because a man (whom we believe is Jimmy) was standing in front handing out samples. In addition to the prepared seafood dishes that Jimmy offers, they have a plethora of baked goods- which did not look too shabby themselves. We had a sample of some delicious strawberry short cake. After pondering over the menu for a good 15 minutes, we decided to split a platter that included two crab cakes, yeast buns (we thought that was funny because of course the buns have yeast!), and two sides. For the side dishes, we decided to get corn pudding and mac and cheese.

Artist: FELIX DE KAPITEIN / Interview by SFINX.
We are honored & thankful, Felix, for the collaboration with the SFINX.
That means a lot & makes us happy, that we share the same vision, to spread Art & Cvlture to the whole world. Express yourself & let the people know you & your art.
1. State your name for the record. Introduce yourself.
Hello, my name is Felix D'Huys, I work under the alter ego Felix De Kapitein. I've been living 25 years on this stone. My place of residence in Gent, Belgium. I work as a tattoo artist in Punctum Tattoo Studio but also make illustrations and graphic work.
2. When did you realize you wanted to become a tattoo artist, and which was the main reason force behind the choice?
I was always interested in having tattoos on my own body but never thought about doing it myself. Until I met some tattoo artists who were doing different things then most traditional tattoo artists. While I was studying graphic at KASK Gent, a friend pushed me to buy a tattoo machine and start practicing. I fell in love with the craft and everything attached to it.
3. Which tattoo artist(s) do you admire?
I absolutely admire are Alexander Grim, Bleck, Rafel Delalande, Arie Fasant, Gakkin, Tim Beijsens, Maud Dardeau, Gerhard Wiesbeck, Marabou, Frederico Rabelo, Leny Tusfey, Kenji Alucky, Abyssicart, Skeleton Jelly, Haivarasly and much more.
My preference is big tattoos, dark but elegant.
4. Do you have a formal art background?
Yes, I have a master degree in Graphic Arts at KASK School of Arts in Gent, Belgium. This defined my way of working with tattoos a lot. Creating interesting graphic images and searching for your own path.
5. How would you describe your personal style?
6. What are your favorite artworks to create and how you approach designing a custom piece?
I love making big detailed illustrations and backpieces. I always start by choosing a symbolical subject. I start by doing a big research on the topic.
After the idea comes the first sketch. I always pushed myself to work on the actual design with markers only, without erasing anything. This helps me a when tattooing, since it's impossible to go back.
I like to use really fine markers and needles. I always try tro draw they way I draw. Good artworks start from my own head. I use referente material to get proportions and poses right, but it's really important for myself that the final result is something original. It has to be my own creation.
7. How do you see your style evolving?
I would love to design and tattoo full body suits.
8. Do you find your work attracts a specific type of clientele?
All my clients are interested in the same visual language, symbols and themes as me. I can find a connection with almost all my clients, they are all unique people connected by my drawings on their body.
9. In three words, what is art to you?
Destruction, Chaos, Construction.
10. Do you have any tattoos?
- Which tattoo was your first and which one is your latest?
I did my first tattoo on myself, it felt right to give and get my first one by myself. It's a seven circuit labyrinth on my upper leg, since it was the most easy place to tattoo myself.
The lines are shit but I am still very happy with it. The last on I got was by Bleck who did a very nice one on my lower arm.
- Which tattoo do you cherish the most? Which style do you like best?
I am most proud of my left sleeve in progress, also by Bleck. It's a classical black figure Greek style vase around my arm containing scenes of the Trojan War.
It's done quite traditional as if my arm is the vase. It had beautiful details and I will never get tired of looking at it.
- Do you have any regrets about your tattoos? If so, why?
No, that's the point of getting tattoos. I have some tattoos I would not put at this moment, but I don't regret the person I was back then, it's a part of me. Life is a one way ticket and tattoos mean good memories.
11. Is there a specific culture or philosophy which fuels your inspiration?
I get inspired by Myths and legends from different parts of the world and history. Especially Greek, Renaissance, Buddhism and Hinduism, Anarchism and much more. I can find inspiration from every religion, culture, subculture, music genre...
Also interests in advanced tribal cultures. Cultures throughout history that were/are advanced but still in touch with human nature.
12. Do you incorporate any elements of ancient Greek art to your work?
I love Greek myths. Greek culture is the beginning of European culture. It fascinates me how advanced ancient Greek culture was for its time. Greece is a beautful conutry, I have only been there once but loved the country. The clash of old ancient culture blending with new alternative subcultures.
13. Do you have any works that are influenced by ancient Greek philosophy or myths?
14. Aside from ancient Greek art, what is the most prevalent ancient culture in your work?
I try to make a big mix from different ancient and modern cultures. There are symbols and myths all around the work with different meaning and connotations. i like to find the links and make art about all the links I find. Destruction, Chaos, Construction.
15. On what level do you feel art influences people?
Art is a way of living, it is about the ability of humankind to create things with their own hands, of choice, of leaving the world behind in a more beautiful way then they found it. A constructive way of living. It inspires, it gives hope, it feeds the soul, it nurtures the brain, it loves you if you love it. It is the dance of life.
16. Anything else you like to mention?
I would love to tattoo people in Greece.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The number of cattle in New Mexico has dropped for the third straight year as ranchers around the state have been forced to sell off their herds as they grapple with a persistent drought.
The National Agricultural Statistics Service reported Friday that New Mexico's cattle inventory has dipped to 1.3 million head. That's down 4 percent from the previous year and marks the lowest inventory since 1991.
The number of beef cows in New Mexico has also hit a record low of 390,000 for the second year in a row.
The executive director of the New Mexico Cattle Growers' Association, Caren Cowan, says the lack of rain and feed, the high cost of hay and rising transportation costs have put ranchers in a bad place.
She says they're praying for rain and looking for a silver lining.

1 A Psalm of David versus Goliath. Blessed is the Lord, my God, who trains my hands for the battle and my fingers for the war.
2 My mercy and my refuge, my supporter and my deliverer, my protector and him in whom I have hoped: he subdues my people under me.
3 O Lord, what is man that you have become known to him? Or the son of man that you consider him?
4 Man has been made similar to vanity. His days pass by like a shadow.
1 All things have their time, and all things under heaven continue during their interval.
2 A time to be born, and a time to die. A time to plant, and a time to pull up what was planted.
3 A time to kill, and a time to heal. A time to tear down, and a time to build up.
4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh. A time to mourn, and a time to dance.
5 A time to scatter stones, and a time to gather. A time to embrace, and a time to be far from embraces.
6 A time to gain, and a time to lose. A time to keep, and a time to cast away.
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew. A time to be silent, and a time to speak.
8 A time of love, and a time of hatred. A time of war, and a time of peace.
9 What more does a man have from his labor?
10 I have seen the affliction that God has given to the sons of men, in order that they may be occupied by it.
11 He has made all things good in their time, and he has handed over the world to their disputes, so that man may not discover the work which God made from the beginning, even until the end.

Earlier this year Toyota gave us a few details on the car, including that it will be limited to only 500 units in its initial production run —150 of which will come to the U.S.—and will use the automaker’s first generation of lithium-ion batteries.
Now the plug-in Prius is near production-ready. Reportedly capable of traveling at highway speeds and approximately 12 miles on electric power only, the vehicle simply reverts to traditional hybrid operation once it’s out of juice.
While no specific sale date has been announced as of yet, we’re told that Toyota will begin delivering customer vehicles late this year. While the initial run will be leased to fleet customers for gathering real-world test data—and therefore won’t really be available to the public—technological hurdles and expense will likely preclude large-scale production for the foreseeable future. That said, Toyota will likely ramp up production as costs come down and the technologies hit their strides. The company is already working on the second generation of the lithium-ion batteries, which would presumably increase the car’s range and efficiency.

Here’s the Problem: Don’t f*** with me, Albertson’s. I know what those are. Last I checked, the word “donut” isn’t trademarked, so what are you getting at here?
Actual Problem: What’s the obsession with the word, “ring” Albertson’s baked good section?? Why’s it all about a ring? Can’t people be happy without a fucking ring? I mean, some people just want to come home at night and snuggle up with a nice donut without thinking about its shape or consistency or future.
…or maybe it’s just me.
Here’s the Problem: I watched the College Football Playoff Championship game last night (go Bucks!) and was oddly entranced by the logo. I mean, there it was. Big and bold and in the middle of the field. Looking seductive, yet warm and embracing. Whoever came up with it seemed to have an intense understanding of lines and life. Possibly from the Georgia O’Keefe school of logo design?
Actual Problem: With all the attention to the logo, it seemed unnecessary to add the stark contract of Ohio State and Oregon cheerleaders. I mean, The Bucks girls could be nuns compared to those Slutty Ducks. I think I can see her logo…

Ok so I'm REALLY new at this raising a teen thing....today and yesterday I introduced my niece to a girl down the road. I figured she needs to make some friends, and good trustworthy ones. They seem to get along fine but the problem is....my niece and I DON'T get along with other teens around. She starts showing off and acting like she can do whatever she wants. And if I disagree with her she gives me this HUGE attitude! Example: tonight her and her new friend come and ask me if I can take them to the school dance. Mind you, it's now 8:50pm and the dance is from 9pm-11pm...oh and besides that, she needs $20.00 for her and $20.00 for her friend to go. So I tell her it's too short notice especially where I have 4 of my own kids. I promise her that next time if I know a little more ahead of time she can go. Well, that starts a big fit by her blaming me saying I don't want her to have friends....that isn't the case at all and she knows it! How do I deal with this attitude and her rudeness when friends are around? I can't stand it! She's a different girl all around when friends are near........she got me to the point I wanted to make her stay in her room!!! I couldn't even look at her I was sooo annoyed...PLEASE HELP!!!

Two new live roulette games and an updated popular Hi-Lo game join the growing collection of offerings from the Playtech Live Casino portfolio.
Leading gambling technology company Playtech boasts its beefed up live casino portfolio, following the release of two new live roulette titles and an updated Hi-Lo game.
Playtech’s new roulette games — American Roulette and Spread-Bet Roulette — along with the improved Hi-Lo game all feature improved design and user experience.
Kevin Kilminster, Head of Innovation for Live Casino at Playtech, said:
“The demand for experience-focused gameplay amongst the modern generation of Live Casino players is stronger than ever. Live Casino is part of the entertainment industry as well as the gambling industry — the presentation and atmosphere we can deliver is what makes players choose Live over standard RNG games. With the addition of American Roulette, Hi-Lo Club and Spread-Bet Roulette to our range, we can offer players an even more immersive and exciting entertainment experience.”
American Roulette, which is the high-end variant of the two new roulette games, is based on the Playtech Live Grand Royale room. It has a roulette wheel with double zeroes and features a higher margin compared to European roulette games.
Giving players a different twist, Spread-Bet Roulette features a physical wheel and an RNG ‘Spin a Win’ reel. The wheel and the reel give players a total of seven different side bet options, raising the chance to win up 400x the stake. Of the two, Spread-Bet Roulette is the more accessible option as it accepts as little as 10p a spin, but without sacrificing high-end studio design.
Meanwhile, Playtech’s popular Hi-Lo game now called Hi-Lo Club looks brand new with its full redesign and improved user experience. The overall game has also transformed to be the perfect choice for modern players. Players can expect an 80s Miami theme, accented with neon details, integrated soundtrack, new dealer uniforms, and new ‘table top’ table.
These three new live casino titles are now available for casino operators and players through the Playtech Live Casino network via Playtech’s Engagement Centre.

Boštjan Vasle graduated from the Faculty of Economics, University of Ljubljana in 1994 and continued his studies at the Central European University in Budapest, where he completed a master's degree in monetary policy in 1997.
His professional career started at the Ministry of Finance. In 2000, he moved to the Institute of Macroeconomic Analysis and Development, where his main areas of work were price and monetary policies. One of the Institute's major projects in which he was involved at that time was the preparation of economic policy measures that led to the lowering of inflation in Slovenia and the subsequent successful adoption of the euro.
In 2006 he was engaged at the Government Office for Growth where he supervised the implementation of economic reforms. As Head of the Department for Economic Reforms he was responsible for the coordination of measures aimed at restructuring public finances, improving competitiveness, increasing the efficiency of higher education, the privatisation and development of financial markets, and aligning reforms with the Lisbon Strategy. At the end of 2006, after the implementation of the first package of economic reforms, he returned to IMAD and assumed its leadership in December 2007.

Batman V Superman films on location at Michigan State University
Upcoming superhero movie Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice has filmed at Michigan State University (MSU). For the past few months the shoot has been based at Michigan Motion Picture Studios in Detroit.
The production team paid nearly USD 230,000 to cover the logistics involved with location filming in a museum on MSU grounds and they may return for reshoots within the next six months, reports the Lansing State Journal.
“As one of the top universities in the country, MSU attracts a variety of major events from concerts to conferences to athletics to major motion picture shoots,” said MSU spokesman Kent Cassella in a statement to the outlet: “We are always excited to have the opportunity to showcase our campus and mid-Michigan to a variety of audiences.”
Michigan offers a generous filming incentive programme but the annual fund fluctuates and currently has to be renewed annually. This doesn’t seem to have impacted too severely on Michigan’s popularity, although the state is no longer in the top tier of North American production hubs.
Batman v Superman is a follow-up to Man of Steel. The film will introduce Ben Affleck’s incarnation of Batman, plus a selection of additional superheroes that will get their own films in the coming years as Warner Bros seeks to compete with Marvel.
Warner Bros recently announced it will be making at least ten comic book movies over the next five years based on superhero characters from DC’s back-catalogue. It’s likely that these films will be made in production hub cities, but it remains to be seen whether they will stay in the US or follow Marvel’s example and relocate to the UK.

The Greenbelt Conservancy has plenty of activities and events planned for Staten Islanders over the next couple of months, and several of them take place today and in next few days.
Starting today is "Gentle Yoga" at the Greenbelt Nature Center, which offers folks a chance to improve their mobility. The event is from 2 to 3:15 p.m.
Certified yoga instructor Nancy Kaufman teaches the Gentle Yoga sessions on the edge of the West Shore beautiful and inspiring woodlands, as stated in the Events Listings on www.sigreenbelt.org.
"These classes provide an introduction to basic yoga poses, emphasizing stretching, coordination of breath with movement and attention to alignment and balance. These classes are for people new to yoga or those who are currently practicing yoga," says the event description. "All yoga classes end with deep relaxation and a guided visualization to help release tension and reduce stress. Modifications will be made, as needed for each student, so that all adults, regardless of age or physical ability, will feel the benefits that yoga has to offer."
The fee is $13 for Greenbelt Conservancy members, and $15 for non-members.
This Saturday includes a morning gathering that signals the end of spring and start of summer. The "First Forest" experience allows the adventurous to wander the Greenbelt, up toward the tree canopy, and down on the forest floor to find out all about what no other borough in the city comes close to having. It's a free program geared towards families with children ages 4 and up. Registration is required for the 10 a.m. event.
Also on Saturday comes a walk through Clove Lakes Park with Protectors of Pine Oak Woods. It takes place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The scheduled 192nd consecutive monthly workshop that is part of the walk involves two hours of removing alien invasive plants from areas chosen by the Natural Resources Group. Folks will meet by the maintenance building at the intersection of Slosson and Drake avenues. Bring gloves and pruners, but if you don't have your own, Protectors will supply them, along with refreshments. For more information call Don Recklies at 718-768-9036 or Chuck Perry at 718-667-1393.
T'ai Chi takes place this Sunday at 10 a.m., with Raymond Yuen instructing folks at the Nature Center, 700 Rockland Ave., Sea View, overlooking the woodlands. All fitness levels are welcome. A $13 fee is in place for Conservancy members. The cost is $15 for non-members.
Lastly, a Fathers Day event is set for 1 p.m. The "Fathers in the Forest" gathering at High Rock Park will inform participants of the characteristics that distinguish the "daddies" in the forest from others in their species and how they play an instrumental role in survival. Folks will walk along the trails in search of those who call the wetlands home. It's a free program geared towards families with youngsters ages 7 and up.
For information on all events aside from the Clove Lakes Park walk, call the Greenbelt Nature Center, 718-351-3450, or email: email@example.com. Visit www.sigreenbelt.org for additional details.
Stay tuned next week for another update regarding Greenbelt Conservancy events. All Staten Islanders should be getting acquainted with this unique greenspace.

The Roaring 20's Scrapbook
Transcript of The Roaring 20's Scrapbook
Fashion in the 1920's was very different then before. With girls now showing their body off a little more it changed the modern age forever. girls could now wear
ReADING WAS VERY POPULAR IN THE 1920'S ESPECIALLY DURING THE WINTER MONTHS SINCE NOT MANY ACTIVITIES WERE AVAILABLE. bEFORE THE TELELVISION AND RADIO WERE AVAILABLE READING NEWSPAPERS, MAGAZINES AND BOOKS WERE THE ONLY ACTIVITIES PEOPLE COULD DO. A knowledge of the NOVELS was considered an essential part of a good education and aN ALL AROUND home library WAS considered a sound investment
The Roaring 20's Prezi
The radio was a major new technology invention in the 1920's bringing music and news to people all around the world.
Technology was an important category in the 1920's bringing very cool and groovy inventions to people all around. technology played one of the most vital parts in bringing the great economic and cultural prosperity that America experienced during the 1920s. New advancements, new discoveries, and new inventions improved American lives in many if not every conceivable way, but not without a few negative side-effects.
The car. Ford was the first car brand to be out created by Henry Ford (Very nice guy, beautiful daughter) he came out with the first car model the Model T. In 1927 fifteen million Model T's had been sold across the U.S. And now look at today all the cars in the world that people use since being invited in the 1920's. Thank you Henry Ford.
Categories of the Roaring 20's Prezi
The televison was invinted by john baird in 1926. It was the first system working television. The first american to transmit pictures of a moving object was charles francis jenkins in 1927.
bOOKS REFLECTED CHANGES IN SOCIETY.
aLL TYPES OF BOOKS WERE OUT IN THE 20'S biography's, FICTION AND ETC. yOU COULD READ ALL TYPES OF GOOD BOOKS NOTHING EXCITING LIKE TODAY BUT YOU GET THE POINT.
Magazines of the period are full of short stories to entertain their readers, along with THINGS YOU MAY LIKE mRS. s SUCH AS cooking recipes, interior decorating tips, house designs, biographies, crafts, clothing fashions, and advertising.
nEWSPAPERS THEY ARE FUN TO READ BEFORE YOU HEAD TO WORK IN THE MORNING JUST SO YOU CAN KEEP UP WITH YOUR LOCAL, NATIONAL OR GLOBAL NEWS. BACK THEN IT WAS THE SAME WAY WITH ALL OF THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF NEWS YOU CAN READ TODAY JUST IN THE 1920'S.
mUSIC WAS BIG IN THE 1920'S WITH DIFFERENT TYPES OF MUSIC SUCH AS JAZZ, RAGTIME AND BROADWAY. aLL OF THESE DIFFERENT TYPES OF MUSIC REVOLUTIONIZED THE WAY PEOPLE LISTEN TO MUSIC TODAY.
bROADWAY MUSIC WAS aWESOME! iN SOMEWAYS BECAUSE YOU GOT TO WATCH OR LISTEN TO A BUNCH OF DANCERS AND SINGERS PERFORM A PLAY. tHE LION KING IS A GOOD PLAY EVEN THOUGHT IT WASNT AROUND IN THE 20'S. tHEY'RE PROBABLY JEALOUS THEY DIDNT HAVE IT.
Jazz music was a major part of the Roaring 20's with artist such as louis armstrong , Cecil reed and james "bubber" miley. Shake rattle and roll and what a wonderful world are both classics from the roaring twenties which people still love to listen to today.
a different version of jazz, ragtime was a weird type of music that is ragged and syncopated. It was a weird type of jazz that brought people together to dance with the multitude of dances it contained.
Sports which grew and flourished in the nineteen twenties due to unprecedented publicity and promotion included baseball, tennis, golf, swimming, football and boxing. Newspapers, magazines, radio and movies all played a role in boosting the profile of sport and the sporting giants.
Baseball aka J-Swizzles favorite sport to watch was a huge sport in the 1920's. With to different baseball leagues at the time people all around the u.s. tuned in to their radios to listen in on the evening or daytime baseball games. the cardinals in 1920 weren't to good unfortunately with a 75-79 record it was not a very good season for them neither was it good when they lost to the red sox this year.
oh the wonderful sport of golf. exciting only to watch during the masters and the u.s. open. other than that you plop yourself on the couch and fall asleep after watching five minutes. but that's not the big picture. golf was very popular in the 1920's with pros like bobby Jones and Walter hagen dominating golf in the 20's it was exciting to listen to or go watch to see who would pull out a hard 18 hole round. to sum it up golf was one of the big 3 in sports back in the day exciting for any age to watch.
Hot dog eating (yes its a sport)
"GO!" those are the words that start the nathan's hot dog eating contest which first started in 1916. in the 20's it was a fan favorite to watch on the 4th of july as it is today. Pop a squat on the chair and watch as contestants from all over the world manage to rifle down hot dogs down their throat as fast as they can. Be aware you might wanna puke while watching so bring a bucket wherever you go to watch the event. interesting fact in 1921 nathan Handwerker's son murray was born.

MARCH 8th - INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY
Its my pleasure to greet you all on International Womens Day.
Today is an occasion to mark, to observe, to acknowledge, to appreciate and to salute the wonderful roles that women play in making this world a habitable, liveable, lovable place of living. We see women as scientists, politicians, doctors, software engineers, advocates, financial analysts; in media, fashion, entertainment, tax administration, police, sports, business management, industry. In every field, we have stellar examples of women achievers.
This is not an easy journey to start, or to continue.
As a tiny fledgling bundle of joy, eager to emerge into this world from the mother’s womb, girl children in many households still suffer from the existential threat of female foeticide or infanticide. It’s not a coincidence that there are only 940 females in India for 1000 males (2011 census). As she grows up, quite often, not only in rural areas but in urban too, girl children are deprived of education. Unrelenting education campaigns are yet to weed out the stigma in many households about educating girls. Even if the stigma is dispensed with, if there is a boy child and a girl child in a family that can educate only one of them, boy is sent to school. In lower economic strata, girls are looked upon as home keepers, and domestic help supplements, or petty employable commodities, for petty wages, even from their childhood. They are subjected to abuse and violence. Even in upper economic strata, in homes, in societies, in media, in films, girls are victims of wrong stereotypes.
In spite of such deprivations, disadvantages and discriminations, it’s amazing that girl children, from all kinds of economic strata, braving many odds, have grown into achievers, in different fields, trailing a blaze of success.
President of Intel India, IBM India; Chairmen/CEOs/ MDs of SBI, ICICI Bank, Axis Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, Cap Gemini, Britannia Industries, Wockhardt Hospitals, Lupin, National Stock Exchange, CRISIL, LIC; Country Heads of Morgan Stanley India, Facebook India, Hewlett Packard India, Diageo, Bank Of America Meryll Lynch, Accenture India are all women. Women scientists played a major role in the historic ISRO’s 104 satellite launch. Our sportsmen who saved the blushes in Olympics are sportswomen – PV Sindhu, Sakshi Malik, Dipa Karmakar. 19 women got Padmasri’s last year. Women have arrived to claim their rightful share of achievement. We need to celebrate their achievements. Project them. Make them icons of inspiration, for generations to derive energy from.
At the same time, we should be aware about the vast sea of women who are still shackled to the pathos of poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, lack of opportunities for a sustainable livelihood.
I saw a picture in a newspaper – a village bus stand – two grown up daughters along with their father / mother, about to board a bus. Father was a farmer or a wage earner, who lost his livelihood. They are migrating to city, in search of livelihood. The picture haunts me – I wonder – what happened to that family, those girls – in a city which is new to them, a city where they have to find a place to live, find work, with no resources to bank upon. What if they couldn’t? This is not the story of the girls in the picture alone, this is the story of thousands of girls from families ravaged by poverty, loss of livelihood; cornered, uprooted and thrown into an unknown arena of exploitation. As I think more and more about it, it makes me agitated more and more, to fight for the safeguards that women should be guaranteed – the most important being the right to education. Women should be enabled with education, with skills - with employable skills -at various ages and stages of life, so that they are endowed with the skill-set to earn decent livelihood. To save themselves from exploitation.
The task doesn’t stop there. Once women gain employment, they should be endowed with right to equality, right against discrimination in workplace. Women should be assured dignity of labour, equal wages, beneficial facilities and additional safeguards which compensate for their lack of level playing field. These safeguards and benefits should be made statutory, institutionalised, and implemented thoroughly. Because these are the safeguards that we have achieved through ages of fighting. We should make relentless fight for safegaurds that we are yet to achieve. We should be very vigilant. Because there will always be attempts to mock, sneer, and trample on the safeguards and the genuine benefits that we rightfully deserve.
In this context, I am reminded about an interview given by Anima Patil Sabale, a scientist – astronaut select, working at Intelligent Systems Division at NASA Ames Research Centre. She said : I wake up at 4 am everyday, cook lunch, pack lunches for everyone, lay out breakfast and clothes for the boys and then come to work. After I leave work, I travel for an hour to get home. My boys come home from school then I can help them with their homework, do the dishes and start cooking.
This is the story of everyone of us. Whether we are an astronaut in NASA or a scientist in ISRO, or a researcher in DRDO or an auditor in AG’s office or an Inspector in Incometax or an executive in a bank or a clerk in Civil Defence or a staff member of Indian Post or an announcer in AIR, or a surveyor in Geological Survey; name any job, any cadre, in any department, the story is the same. A woman is always an eco-system, balancing multiple roles, multiple commitments, at multiple places of work – both in office and also at home. There might be CL, EL etc in office, but there is not a single CL or EL in house. Good health or bad health, the tasks of bringing up children, and other home-making works don’t give any break. These realities necessitate the additional safeguards.
Comrades, we have travelled a long road, but we also have a long road ahead. Women need to be in more leadership positions, women should stand up as role models. Women should help other women grow, and women should form a strong bond of unity.
This day is a reminder of the road ahead, the enormity of the tasks that still stare at us. This day is a day to resolve, to rededicate ourselves to the task of women emancipation and empowerment.
UNO declared the campaign slogan as “Women in the changing World of Work : Planet 50=50 by 2030’, for gender equality. The theme for this year’s International Women’s day is rightfully coined as “Be Bold for Change”. On this occasion, as Chairperson of the Women’s Committee of the Central Government Employees and Workers, I call upon everyone to join hands and give a clarion call – Yes, we will make it happen.
Believe in yourself.
Confederation of Central Government Employees and Workers,

Glenwood residents on the Upper West Side
, put Osteria Cotta Restaurant and Wine Bar in your pocket for the next time you're up in the 80s, after a day on the Great Lawn, say, or a visit to the Museum of Natural History.
Especially once the weather gets warm (finally!), and you can take advantage of the restaurant's long, open-windowed frontage, not to mention the extensive sidewalk seating. Because although the meals we've had here have never been anything to write home about, there's no denying that the pretty, almost-aggressively convivial bi-level space nicely fills a need for a relaxed, reliable, inexpensive meal, preferably in a group–or on a date–and with plenty of wine.
Cool NYC Restaurant Atmosphere at Osteria Cotta
If the sidewalk tables are full (and they will be, come summer), the downstairs bar/dining area at Cotta makes for a lively, cool-breezy alternative. It's all tall counters and communal tables here–good for scoping out the scene–and the mainstream-indie Pandora soundtrack is loud enough to feel like a night-on-the-town, but not so loud that you have to scream. If you're in the mood for something more intimate, the upstairs dining room is pretty and romantically-lit, and the back room up there has almost a loungey feel.
Osteria Cotta's Pizza and Menu
The atmosphere at Osteria Cotta is solid, but the food, in our experience, is mixed. For example, although everything in the Antipasti section of the Cotta menu sounds pretty appealing, don't be tempted. In our experience they seem to make these dishes (like the "Roasted" Cauliflower, pictured) at some indeterminate number of days in advance, then store them in the fridge. Better to stick with the Cotta pastas, which have received rave-ish reviews from friends, or the pizzas. True, you can get better Naples-style pies at a dozen other places in town (including Fratelli la Bufala
on 76th and Broadway), but the Cotta pizza satisfies in its own cheesy, doughy way.
Osteria Cotta's Upper West Side Location and Menu
Cotta Wine Bar is located on Columbus Avenue between 84th and 85th Streets and is open weekdays from 5:00 p.m. to 12:00 midnight, and on the weekends they open at noon. You can get a limited menu on pizza and bruschetta until 2:00 a.m. on Thursday through Saturday. For more info and a look at the complete Osteria Cotta menu, please see the restaurant's website.

Yema Flygraf Pilot (Price, Pictures and Specifications)
The aviation world has been a great source of inspiration for Yema since its creation in 1948, specially for its iconic Flygraf collection. Being a historic partner of the CNES (French National Center for Space studies) since 1982 and after obtaining, once again an official partnership with the French Air Force in 2020 (please read more about here), Yema now welcomes a new ambassador, Samy Mason. The French watchmaker and this talented professional aerobatic pilot from California introduce the Flygraf Pilot.
Young Aerobatic Professional Pilot
It took Samy, son and grandson of pilots, only 3 days after his birth to board the family Piper Club flown by his mother. Now 26 years old, Sammy has over 3200 flight hours on nearly 60 different aircrafts. At only 19, Samy becomes the youngest American aerobatic team member in advanced category and wins his first title. At 21, he does it once again by joining the EAA AIR Venture and again in Red Bull Air Race where he becomes the youngest pilot to fly in this world-renowned competition.
With 12 prizes obtained, Sammy continues to have fun in the air through numerous competitions and today accepts a new challenge by collaborating with a watchmaker in order to design a brand new Flygraf. Thought and drawn in collaboration with Samy Mason, the Flygraf M1 and M2 are designed for all enthusiasts of the aviation world.
The Yema Flygraf Pilot was first designed for today's flight crew and therefore aims to be efficient and reliable. The primary characteristic of a watch is to tell the time, which is why this new Flygraf sports an ultra-readable and refined dial, inspired by military aviation watches from the 1960s. Water resistant to 300m, this timepiece has been designed to accompany the pilots in all circumstances.
The Yema Flygraf Pilot is equipped with the in-house movement MBP1000 and is available in black dial (M1) and grey dial (M2).

Dr. Geoffrey Wainwright, a systematic theology professor at Duke University, recently lectured at Moravian Theological Seminary as the Justin Couillard memorial lecturer.
According to Dr. Wainwright, a Jesuit theologian offered the analysis that the Faith and Order text on baptism, Eucharist and ministry, adopted in Lima, Peru, in 1962, has been called "potentially the most important ecumenical document before the churches since the Reformation."
Dr. Wainwright, president of Societas Liturgica, an international association of worship scholars, called the Lima text, "a convergence document which allows most denominational churches to recognize that they are playing in the same ballpark, even though they are not all adopting identicalpositions on the field."
The text has been translated into more than 40 languages and is being studied around the world on all levels of church life.
Dr. Wainwright concluded:
"The kind of agreement that the text makes possible may represent the last chance the churches originating in the northern hemisphere have of setting their own house in order before the center of gravity in church affairs moves to the southern half of the world."

Lima, Nov 29 : Peru is preparing the electoral infrastructure to ensure that the nearly 1 million Peruvian nationals living abroad participate in the upcoming general elections scheduled for April 11, 2021, Foreign Minister Elizabeth Astete said.
The government is coordinating with electoral organizations to prepare for the election of the next president of Peru, who will succeed interim leader Francisco Sagasti on July 28, 2021, Xinhua news agency quoted Astete as saying on Saturday.
One of the priorities of the government is that the electoral process be carried out with all the guarantees established by law, the Minister added.
According to the National Elections Jury, about 25.3 million people will be eligible to vote in the general elections.
Amid a political turmoil in Peru which was triggered by the impeachment of former President Martin Vizcarra earlier this month and followed by the resignation of his successor Manuel Merino, the country’s Congress had elected Sagasti as the new interim leader on November 16.
Sagasti’s appointment came a day after Merino, who was appointed following Vizcarra’s impeachment on November 9, resigned following widespread protests that broke out across the country after he assumed the post.
After Vizcarra was removed from office for alleged bribery, thousands of people across the country staged some of the largest protests in decades.
The week-long rallies descended into chaos on November 14, during which two people were killed and over 100 others injured.

I’m disappointed but not surprised that council has chosen to go along with the left-wing virtue-signalling of new Liberal Mayor Sohi to defund the Edmonton Police Service in the new budget. Several Democrat-run cities in the U.S. are now wailing about current crime in their cities, San Francisco and Chicago, leading examples. These cities were among the leaders in self-righteous condemning of their police forces during the 2020 summer of Antifa and BLM riots. Closer to home, Toronto continues to suffer severe gun-related deaths due, in large part, to that council’s decision to end carding or street checks.
A recent news item disclosed the safety of ETS passengers on the LRT and at LRT stations is to the point of impacting ridership. ETS has acknowledged this threat by enhancing transit security, however this security detail lacks the authority of the EPS and so provides little comfort to vulnerable passengers, especially those who must travel in the evenings.
tap here to see other videos from our team.
For this council to pretend that crime is not a serious issue in Edmonton is alarming, and to see them pat themselves on the back is even more discouraging. It will be a long four years of NDP management of the City of Edmonton.

Quebec’s Bill 21 unfairly discriminates
An elementary teacher from Chelsea, Que. has been fired because she wore a hijab. Because of Bill 21, she cannot work as a teacher at that school. While she does still have a position there, she can no longer be in the classroom. The parents of the students placed green ribbons on the fence that surrounded the school as a way of showing their support for the teacher.
Bill 21 is restricting people from wearing their religious symbols freely, because even though they can still wear them out in public, they cannot hold certain job positions because of their religious symbols. This is discrimination, because you should never have to ask a Muslim woman not to wear a hijab, a Christian not to wear the cross, or a Sikh not to wear a turban. As a 14-year-old Muslim girl, I find this extremely unfair that I cannot have certain positions in a job because of my religion. Everyone should be allowed to wear their religious symbols with pride, and not be treated any differently because of it.

Rising COVID cases no surprise
Soaring Omicron cases. Geez, never seen that one coming with all the vaccinated sheeple taking their self-entitled trips again by plane or cruise. How could this have ever happened?
Duh, maybe look up the definition of madness after the travel industry closes again, and think this through just a little wee bit more.

A much needed update. I feel absolutely awful for spending so much time away from writing, but I’d like to tell you guys what’s going on before I continue this journey. This semester, so far, has had be taking an emotional and physical beating. I feel completely drained. I’ve done really well in college so far, gotten generally A’s and B’s up until this point, and now that I’m diving into my major-related classes, I’m working double as hard to keep those A’s and B’s I’ve strived for in the past. And yes, I’ve got ’em currently, but seriously, I’m whipped. So here we go. I am back in the writing game, I’m happy to be back at my blog, and I’m ready to continue this journey with you guys, everyone that’s supported me and cheered me on even when I felt like giving up. This one’s for you for being as awesome as you are.
10 Things I am Grateful for This Week!
1. I have my inspiration back! For the love of God, FINALLY. I have a writing course that I’m taking that drains the creativity right out of me, so having this creativity in my grasp again is a blessing. I feel like writing keeps me going, and if I don’t have the energy to do it, I’m just not the same. So I am thankful for being inspired again!
2. I am thankful that my car is in pristine (working) condition again. You guys weren’t there for the sh*tshow that ensued with my car situation and how every morning felt like a new adventure trying to figure out whether I’d get to class or not on time, or whether I’d be giving another desperate call to AAA. My little beater, Antonio, is officially back in business. Ladies….
3. I have rediscovered my obsession with Civilization 5. Between classes, I’ve been coming back to my apartment and continuing what I believe to be the longest single game I’ve ever played, with 15 cumulative hours played. WTF am I even doing with my life? 20 minutes in real life feels like 2 seconds in Civ 5. I feel like the best conqueror the world has ever seen. I think I’m just gonna take this love a step further and start talking to people in Civ 5 terms and if they know what I mean and can relate to the craze, they’re automatically friends.
Friend: “I had a good time today. We should do this again.”
Me: “How about we make a Public Declaration of Friendship for 15 turns to make it official?”
Friend: “Girl, you took the words right out of my mouth. Might as well open our borders as well, just for old time’s sake.”
4. Ever since I started my subscription with Ipsy, I feel like I’m better equipped to look dashing in every situation and actually feel like I do. I’m learning how to accept using new products that I’ve never seen or heard about before without feeling like I’ve betrayed my regular purchases and am becoming more accustomed to experimenting with new makeup. *Fit Me foundation hysterically crying in the distance* I’m sorry, shhh, it’s not me or Ipsy. It’s you….You just….don’t Fit Me anymore…
5. And finally, last night I got a total of 12 hours of sleep, on accident. Yes, I repeat, on accident. Didn’t even mean to fall asleep, but your girl feel like she’s got rainbows shooting from her eyeballs. Sleep is such a beautiful thing. Every college student in the entire world knows this struggle.
What are you thankful for this week?
Leave a comment below if you love me. And if you don’t? Well, I don’t love you either. The feeling’s mutual, buddy.

For steelmakers British Steel will allocate three percent of the total turnover of the company
Executive Director, British Steel Roland Junck gave an extensive interview to the British press. The reason for this, was a positive profit over the last year. Currently, the economy of the company is restored. Now the profits the company is rapidly moving to the coveted Douste millions of pounds.
In the past year, British Steel was able to conclude a number of successful contacts. One of the most important was the contract with British nuclear power station — Hinkley Point. The amount of this contract is two million pounds. Because of this, British Steel were able to reduce the company’s total debt, which amounts to eighty million pounds.
According to Roland, the Junk, in June will be restored to the three percent calculation of the allowance for collective. This was the British steel company said in September 2016. For four thousandth collective of British Steel, the surcharge will be a great incentive.
In line with the recent financial report published on the website of the company significantly increased profit. The increase, at least, amounted to twenty percent.
In conversation with the press Roland Junck said: «our main goal is to achieve a profit of one hundred million pounds. But despite all our efforts to this figure this year will fail. However, we already have a plan as such to get profits. British Steel intend to get rid of a loss of eighty million pounds. And also to achieve income in a hundred and, perhaps, a hundred and twenty million pounds.»
In addition, Executive Director said: «investment in the future, our workforce and the enterprise — the success of the company. In addition, so we will be able to maintain the positive momentum in the work. We intend to do everything that our products satisfy the most demanding customers. In the near future, the company will invest in the development of energoeffektivnosti. And also, we will develop techniques for improving the quality of products.»
Roland Junck said that market fluctuations could not strongly affect the state of the company. The rising cost of coal, scrap and iron ore, as well as jumps in the exchange rate complicate the business. But the company was able to take a good position in the market and is unlikely to slow down. Junk assured in the future success of British Steel on the world market.

there are some new photos of pushkar and more to come
Location: Pushkar, India
Well its obvious that i've kind of dropped out of sight for a while. India is carrying me away again... but will be back very soon with more stories!
Location: Delhi, Indian Subcontinent
I guess I had forgotten my oath to ever take an overnight bus again when I bought the ticket on the overnight sleeper bus from Pushkar to Delhi last night. Originally I wanted to take the day-train but it was not running yesterday and rather than leave a day earlier or later I decided I could manage with the sleeper bus... I thought, with a bed, the 11 hour journey (which should only take 7 hours straight) wouldn't be so bad. As soon as I saw the bus I thought to myself "what did I get myself into..." Not that the bus looked so bad, but there are a whole bunch of reasons I hate to take busses. The roads are a big issue, and I happened to be the lucky one in seat 18, the last seat on the bus, on the top... the bumpiest seat on the bus. What makes a 7 hour journey turn into 11 hours you say? Well, instead of leaving at 7:30 as planned, we had to wait around for another hour until they had lugged a whole truckload of hay onto the top of the bus... 4 boys and about 20 big bags of hay. Then they lined the aisle of the bus in about 40 huge sacks of nuts, which added a whole dimension to walking to the back of the bus, balancing on huge burlap sacks of nuts underfoot. Once we started, I knew that the bumpy road would really only be the worst for the first 45 minutes... I opted to sit on the nuts instead of rattle around in my 2.5 feet wide, 6 foot long berth. A french woman with 2 young kids had the bigger berth opposite me and I had no idea how she could do such a thing with children!
We make our first stop in Ajmer to pick up new riders and have about an hour to wait there as well. I decided to get our of the bus and go to the bathroom, sit out in the not so fresh air, but it was night time, and although there were many foreigners and locals around... one man came up to me and said "this no good variety here, not good place". Which I took to mean that I should probably go sit on the bus rather than stand alone outside as a girl. Then after 30 mins of driving... stop for a dinner break... another hour to wait. Knowing that the 5 hour straight drive was now ahead of us, on a good smooth road I knew that there would be no more stopping, and we could settle in for the night. Now the other reason I hate to go on busses where you dont have the luxury of stopping anywhere because there's no place to stop,especially at night is twofold; 1)fear of getting dehydrated 2) fear of having to pee.
It seemed that not more than 30 minutes had passed before my 2nd biggest fear of traveling on an overnight bus came true... my bladder was completely full. I knew I couldn't hold it for the entire trip and I knew that the only other option was to climb town from the top bunk in the dark and try not to step on anybody's head, land on the nuts and try to find my shoes, walk to the front and have to explain to the bus driver and his 3 assistants why we have to stop, wait until he finds a place to stop somewhere down the road, and find that there is nowhere to pee except right by the front door of the bus with the 3 assistants watching and trying to dodge the oncoming headlights... Sitting on my bunk I try to think of another option. I find an amazing solution... what do you think it is?

There was another dog fight last night near the hotel which seems to happen every night between about 10-11pm. Olivia told me that in her neighbourhood there is a pack of dogs that hangs around one of the corners and sometimes she is scared to walk to her hotel! These dogs bark and fight for hours all over the town... one thing pushkar isn't, is quiet. Because its a holy city there are temples everywhere and the chanting at the temples starts at 4am with ringing bells and singing that lasts for about an hour. So between the dogs barking till after 11, and the chanting starting so early, its hard to get a full night's sleep here! Usually betwen 7:30am and 9:30 am its very quiet for some reason except for this morning when the owner of my hotel decided to stand in the middle of the courtyard and scream at the top of his lungs at one of his employees for half an hour till i came out and told him that he should probably stop yelling because one reason why people come to a hotel is to sleep!
I'm reading the book "Eat, Pray, Love" which is a great book, I recommend highly. The author of the book has just left Italy and is now in India... and yesterday I had the strangest feeling because I was out with my Italian friends, Olivia, Roberto and Franco. We all know each other from working around town and went to a restaurant called "Little Italy" (no coincidence, it was their choice). The food was great. And because Pushkar is a holy city, where alcohol is forbidden inside the city limits, the only thing missing was the red wine. I spent the whole night listening to them talk in Italian as Olivia kindly translated everything. What a beautiful language and what warm, beautiful people they are. I have been to Italy twice, but it was a while ago. I can see why the author of the book enjoyed her time in Italy so much. It was one of those evenings where you kind of forget where you are exactly. Plus, the food was great. I only have 2 more days here before I have to get on the overnight sleeper bus back to Delhi to meet Julia and go to the trade show. I'm sure I could spend at least another 2 weeks here. I hope to come back with Julia, she also knows this town very well.
Location: PUSHKAR, India
Hi everybody, I've been busy in Pushkar making my summer collection of clothing and its one of those times when I just dont feel like writing too much. I guess Pushkar has this 'other worldly' kind of atmosphere where writing has not been my main focus. I think maybe it has also been due to the fact that I got the flu so I had less energy, and also, very busy in the shop designing the clothing etc. I'm feeling better now and decided that I should write a little entry to the blog.
I've been spending most of the time working but on my free time I hang around with some new people I've met. Almost everybody here working is from spain and italy and i've made a new friend, a girl from italy, and we usually eat dinner together after work. There was a canadian guy staying next to me for 3 days and he usually joined us as well but seeing that it was his first time in india he definitely was a novice at everything, mostly at communication. he is one of those people who, when in a foreign country, speaks to the locals as if he were ordering a 'double-double at Tim Hortons'. For me, nothing could be more irritating since i pride myself in being able to communicate without any trouble ever in perfect english, hindi, or hinglish. I like to communicate well. So whenever he was with me i had to bite my tongue whenever he spoke to an indian person and i could see that neither one of them had any idea of what the other was saying. One time I said to him that he had to speak more slowly and even with less words, in fact. Short sentences are always better than long ones. He said that he knew all this, but liked to speak in his own way. Anyways, I'm kind of glad he's gone. He was a loud talker as well. He was the kind of guy where at any moment I felt as though he could crack open a Molson Canadian and pull up the muskoka chair next to the lake! Totally Canadian! Anyways, enough about him, he was a nice person but seemed like his tour of india should be on an episode of the Amazing Race.
Pushkar is also a place where the menu mishaps are at their best and I've collected a few good ones so far:
Mush Scouce ??
Mix Fruit Custed
and for those of you craving something from south of the border... Special Maxican Totella Soup
Spinach Mushroom Tachoch
and if the Maxican Totella soup wasnt enough, there is also the tex-mex favourite... Maxican Totella Burger!
DAL FRY - a yellow lentil deficacy cooked in butter, and the other famous indian dish...
ALOO GOBI - potato and vegetable gravy cooked in green pee
I actually tried the home made nachos the other day... and they weren't bad!
Hopefully there will be more to come. Pushkar is also famous for its museli... with a multitude of spellings, and I'm probably going to get some for breakfast now!
Location: Jaipur, India
Today is Sunday so not much is open. I've been invited by a couple of colleages to hang out around town so we'll see what happens. I have no idea what they have in mind but its always nice to be taken somewhere unknown.
I had actually been sick for the past 2 days, starting Valentines day afternoon when I had to cancel my trip to the fort, the photos are from the next day when I was feeling a bit better. Early afternoon on Valentines day when I was out with my israeli friends who were showing me some places that they work at, just before I was supposed to go to the fort, I got a fever and had to go straight to bed. It lasted 2 days, but now feel 100% better and ready tackle the crazy streets of Jaipur again.
Its funny, because at least 10 times per day I ask myself... 'how did I get here'? 'What am I doing here'? Sometimes I just can't even believe it myself that this is my life.
The days just seem to flow from one to the next... and I am carried along with them, just as I am carried along on the back of some motorcycle through the unbelievably crazy streets of Jaipur.
Its like I wake up in the morning and have no idea what will happen next. Even with the plans that I have, I never know what the result will be. For example, I had heard of this famous exporter in the silver market whose shop I had never visited before so yesterday that was first on my list of things to do. I went through the winding streets of the silver market and found his shop at the very very end. It was a small shop, nothing much to speak of... and I politely went inside, all the lights were out, and a guy was sitting behind the counter. I was thinking to myself, could this really be the shop everybody is talking about? I asked the man if I was in the right place and he said, 'come with me'.
The next thing I know I am hopping on the back of his scooter and we are out in the thick of the traffic. He is winding in and out and between scooters and bikes, and cycles and cars, without ever even looking in his rear view mirror and somehow people make space for us, but by space i mean 'just enough space'. If i were to outstretch my arms I would be touching other scooters and cars on each side of me, and all this doesn't even phase me! This is the time I am asking myself, "what the hell am I doing here"? "why aren't I scared"?
Anyways, 5 minutes later we pull up to this huge house. Outside the house there are like 100 pairs of shoes so I know I must be in the right place and he takes me downstairs. It is there that I spend the next 7 hours working. In the meantime, other foreigners from my hotel wander in who I recognize, other buyers wander in and each are greeted by their own personal salesman who starts to show the things. They bring me tea. They feed me lunch. I am looking at all the jewelrey for hours and hours. Every buyer has their own corner of the room and boxes and boxes of jewelry are piled up to the ceiling. Pieces of jewelry are sprawled from wall to wall over the floor which is covered in one huge matress which everybody is sitting on. There are no tables or chairs anywhere. This is a huge operation. After 7 hours I still hadn't seen everything and I was exhausted and fell into my bed quite content. This is what I mean when I say I never know what is going to happen when I wake up in the morning. And now, another day awaits.

Happy Valentines Day to everybody from the land of big hearts !
Indian people love to celebrate and take special pride in celebrating the festival of love and roses. They are so sweet. I just woke up this morning and have already been wished happy Valentines Day from the boy who brought me tea in the morning and the girl who works in the cyber cafe where I'm sitting right now.
I am feeling a bit lazy today and will not do a lot of work. Maybe just a few hours instead of the non stop wandering from place to place, factory to factory, checking what they specialize in, making designs, making orders... etc. Today I need a little break so maybe just a couple of hours.
Reyhan has already asked me 10 times if I will go to a disco with him tonight and there is no way that I'm going. He is funny, but still irritating.
Another one of the boys who works at one of the factories that I know from last year asked me if I wanted to go on a motorcycle ride this afternoon up to the famous Amber Fort to overlook the city of Jaipur. He is not irritating at all, very polite. The only problem is that his english is bad so we will go without much talking. It will be interesting. Jaipur is a town full of forts and palaces. The royal family of Rajasthan lives here in the city palace and it is all very beautiful so the ride should be amazing. Its not too far, maybe 20 minutes. I've been up the amber fort a couple of times, once hiking by foot, once by elephant and this time by bike. I know it will be wonderful and will take some nice photos.
Location: Jaipur, India
All has settled down at the hotel and Reyhan is just slightly irritating but not as much as before. He sent me a message the very same night, but i had my phone turned off so didn't see that he had apologized for his behaviour. He still tries in his funny way to charm me at any possible way when he is not admiring himself in any reflective surface but it is all a big joke between us now. Apparently he is only 21 years old and can't believe my age, but still doesn't deter him.
I've been working non stop, making all the rounds to the usual places and trying to find some new places. I dont know where all the time goes.
Thats how life is in India. The days are full and kind of exciting. Always meeting new people. Reyhan insisted that i meet him at his friends shop in the jewlery market where i was working and we ordered in Tandoori chicken. The best I've ever had. We ate it in the shop and it was amazing.
I'm tired now and will head to bed. There is a great massage place next door, if it's still open i might be able to get a 20 min neck massage before I hit the sack.

Egypt: Writer and activist Mona Eltahawy on the country's 'unfinished revolution'
Egyptian-American writer Mona Eltahawy has been one of the most visible reporters of the dramatic events in Egypt in recent years.
She was beaten, sexually assaulted and detained by riot police in Cairo in 2011 while reporting on the country's revolution.
Newsweek magazine named her one of its '150 Fearless Women of 2012', Time magazine featured Ms Eltahawy along with other activists from around the world as its 'People of the Year', and Arabian Business magazine named her one of the '100 Most Powerful Arab Women'.
Ms Eltahawy has returned to Egypt after living in the US for more than a decade. She says the world should know that Egypt will never be the same, and that what is happening in the country now is going to change the world.
On a recent visit to Sydney, the 46-year-old came into the ABC studios to explain why you should care about Egypt's "unfinished revolution".
You can read some excerpts below, or click play to hear the full interview.
Q: When people ask, "what do you do?", what do you say?
I usually say that I'm a writer. I used to say that I'm a news journalist, but I gave that up a while ago and I don’t like objectivity any more so I just say writer.
And how do you see yourself?
In many ways: I'll say Egyptian, I'll say feminist, I'll say Muslim, I'll say activist. You know various things - but a combination of the above.
When was the last time you were in Egypt?
Well I've moved back to Egypt now. I moved back to Cairo in March of 2013 after 13 years in the US. I go back to New York regularly for work and for a court case I have.
I am supposed to stand trial [in New York] because I got arrested for spray painting over a racist ad in 2012, so I've been going back to New York regularly to be before the judge and now I'm waiting to stand trial. But Cairo now is home.
It's not the first time you've been in trouble with the law. You were a journalist and an activist during Egypt’s 2011 revolution when former president Hosni Mubarak was ousted from power. You yourself were arrested by riot police and sent a message to your thousands of Twitter followers. Can you tell us about the circumstances leading up to that arrest?
A friend and I joined the protest on a street called Mohamed Mahmoud which has now become iconic for the revolution. It was the stage basically for a five-day clash between us, the people on the side of the revolution, and the police and the military. And it was during the last day of those protests that my friend and I were entrapped by plain-clothes security until riot police came and they separated us and beat us individually. As a result of the beating my left arm was broken and my hand was broken and I was sexually assaulted by the riot police and threatened with gang rape and then detained for six hours by the Interior ministry, and another six hours by military intelligence.
That's horrible. Do you think Egypt has changed since that?
It hasn't, unfortunately. You know I'm just one of thousands of people who were hurt during the revolution and after the revolution, and unfortunately hundreds more were killed. But just since June 30, since [former Egyptian president] Mohammed Morsi was overthrown, at least 16,000 people have been jailed in Egypt, hundreds have been killed and hundreds more have been put on trial. So it's a very difficult time in Egypt.
It's not a very happy time in Egypt, it's quite tough. But I think that those of us who continue to believe in the revolution ... and those of us who are determined to live in a free Egypt see this as, yes, difficult times, but we lived under military rule in Egypt for 60 years - you can't fix that in three years. So unfortunately what we're going through now is the aftermath of having begun something that hopefully in the future will fix those 60 years. But these are not easy times in Egypt right now.
Egypt is very important too, because what’s happening there I firmly believe is going to change the whole world.Mona Eltahawy
Egypt has been in headlines so often in the past few years. In newsrooms there's almost a fatigue when it comes to reporting on the country. Why do you care about what's happening in Egypt? And why should the world keep listening and keep reporting these stories?
I care about what’s happening in Egypt because I’m Egyptian and I want my country to be free and so many people have sacrificed their lives or paid a very high price for that freedom. But I think the world should care about Egypt because unfortunately too many governments, especially in the west - in various parts of Europe, North America, and here in Australia - supported the Hosni Mubarak dictatorship and dictatorships before him at the expense of the Egyptian people. So I think the least those governments can do is to finally start supporting peoples' aspirations to be free and to stop making these horrendous kinds of calculated deals with dictators against the people.
I think Egypt is very important too, because what’s happening there I firmly believe is going to change the whole world, because what we’re doing in Egypt and several countries in the region is basically standing up to a regime that does not represent us. I think the average person around the world watching what’s happening in Egypt now is bound to ask, ‘Well what would I do if I felt that my government doesn’t represent me?’. This was the case three years ago and it continues to be the case. Even in so-called democracies across the world, for example, just before the United States invaded Iraq, I lived in New York at that time and hundreds of thousands of us went to the streets and said don’t invade Iraq. And (the United States government), a democratically elected government, didn’t listen to us, so what do you do then? What do you do when your government does not listen to you?
What you’re seeing in Egypt now is people continuing to be willing to pay their lives to have that ... to demand accountability and to demand that government listen to you. And so you can’t be anywhere in the world and be watching this and not have to ask yourself, ‘What would I do if I were in that position? Would I also be that courageous and would I also be willing to pay with my life, with my physical safety, in order to ensure that my country is being run the way that I want it to be run?'

Last week an Egyptian court sentenced to death 529 supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood in a single mass trial. The UN human rights office says Egypt has contravened international law, and as you’ve mentioned there are thousands of others facing similar charges. Do you think that international condemnation bears any weight with the Egyptian government?
I think with all regimes everywhere that commit these atrocities, I mean everything from the violent break-up of the Muslim Brotherhood sit-ins in the Rabaa and Nahda camp last year... to the thousands as I mentioned detained in Egyptian jails since then, and this outrageous trial that ended in 529 death sentences: All of that must be condemned internally and externally. Where I think external condemnation plays a role is that it shames and it exposes these regimes and it holds them accountable... and accountability is very important because for too long those dictators were able to act with impunity and for too long too many of their allies allowed them to get away with that.
Locked up and on trial in Egypt are countless journalists and bloggers -- among them is Australian journalist Peter Greste and two of his Al-Jazeera colleagues Baher Mohamed and Mohamed Fahmy. They’re charged with spreading false information and supporting the Muslim Brotherhood. The interim Egyptian president Adly Mansour has written a letter to their families, and he has assured Greste's family that he would do all he could to ensure their release. Despite that they remain in jail. What do you think is going to happen to them?
I think it’s outrageous that so many journalists are behind bars and I think it speaks to the Egyptian regime’s inability to handle any kind of criticism and to handle anyone holding it accountable, especially after these terrible violations that we’ve seen happening in Egypt over the past three years that have been getting worse. It's not just Peter and Mohammed and Baher who are in jail, as you know there’s lots of other journalists that we know nothing about and who remain anonymous and who unfortunately because they’re not dual citizens don’t have the international community paying attention to them. We must condemn all of their arrests. We must condemn any attempts at censorship by the Egyptian regime, and if Adly Mansour is serious then do something about it. This is incredibly embarrassing as well as being a violation of countless human rights laws.
A lot of governments in Europe, North America and here in Australia as well are asking themselves... what is Egypt? And what is really going on in Egypt?- Mona Eltahawy
Why hasn’t there been a concrete show of force from the international community condemning these actions?
Many governments are confused they don’t know what to do about Egypt. They don’t know whose side to take. I think this is a consequence of what I spoke about earlier, which is decades of supporting a dictator against the wishes of the people. And decades of thinking the people were basically monoliths: Either you support the regime or you support the Muslim Brotherhood, and that’s not the case. There are many Egyptians who are against both military rule and Islamist rule. A lot of governments in Europe, North America and here in Australia as well are asking themselves... what is Egypt? And what is really going on in Egypt? because they’ve spent decades just happy to sell weapons to our regime, happy to strike business deals with the various regimes in the region and by doing so not really understanding what the people in those countries, in our countries, really want.
Army chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi ... has now resigned from that post and officially announced his intention to run for the presidency. What have you observed about the climate and mood surrounding support of Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and the military?
The Egyptian military has been in charge since 1952, it has never really gone anywhere... it has always been that power behind the scenes. Every single one of our presidents, barring Mohammed Morsi for that one year, was from a military background. Now basically what Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has done is he has gone from the back seat to the front seat. I think that we’re creating another dictator in the making, and I think that because of the amount of fear and paranoia that Egyptian media and that the regime system has managed to generate in Egypt people see Sisi now as this saviour that is helping us against the Muslim Brotherhood. He is not a saviour. He is a man from the military, who is going to continue military rule... and as I mentioned one of the goals of our revolution is to end military rule.
No revolution on earth and in the history of humanity has been about the majority.- Mona Eltahawy
This revolution continues. It will not go away because a door has been opened in Egypt and I think that everybody around the world must understand that Egyptians have changed forever.
Sure, but when he made the announcement to stand for the presidency, he said he was heeding the call and the will of the Egyptian people. He is hugely popular among many people in Egypt.
You know he might be popular... But at the end of the day revolutions are never about the majority. Revolutions are about a passionate minority that is fighting to keep the revolution alive.
No revolution on earth and in the history of humanity has been about the majority. If we waited for the majority to be on the side of the revolution, revolution would never happen.
Abdel Fattah al-Sisi does come from the Mubarak era. What does it mean if he becomes president?
We removed Mubarak but we didn't end the regime, this is the thing and this is why many of us say that the revolution continues. There’s no way that you can untangle 60 years of military rule in just three years. We began something that is going to take many years to continue. If you look at Egypt since the revolution began, there have been countless strikes by various occupations, you know be it doctors, mass transit workers, factory workers. What does it mean in a country where going on strike for so long was against the law? It means that people are saying no to various forms of authority. So just as people grew disillusioned with the Muslim Brotherhood, people will continue with their disillusionment with military rule and that’s exactly what we need to do in Egypt, because in Egypt we deserve better than having to constantly choose between the military and the Islamists. Egypt is much bigger than that.
Is there a credible opposition to Sisi? Who do people vote for if they don’t vote for him?
Well this is the thing, for a very long time we were denied the ability to create a credible opposition because the Egyptian regime in the form of Mubarak largely was saying it’s either us or the Islamists and just as it fought the Islamists it also fought a lot of the progressives and the liberals in the country. So that is the challenge for us now, that we have to create this opposition. I don’t see us creating something that is going to truly be able to wipe all of that away before probably the next seven to 10 years, but we have to start trying. It’s not perfect, but we’re learning to create something that for such a long time we were denied the ability to do.
I think when they look back at this year, the Egyptian military will realise that this was the beginning of their own kind of undoing by their own hands.- Mona Eltahawy
At a news conference in February an Egyptian Army doctor announced to the world that the country’s military had developed a cure for the virus that causes AIDS, as well as hepatitis C. That claim was made without the backing of scientists. What did you think when you saw that news conference happening?
You know many of us just laughed and thought this is just out of this world, who do they think they’re kidding we’re not stupid, and it was incredible overreach. I think when they look back at this year, the Egyptian military will realise that this was the beginning of their own kind of undoing. I think they’re going to rue the day that they did this, just as they rued the day that a judge for the regime sentenced 529 people to death.

Another forest dweller endemic to Sri Lanka is the red-faced Malkoha. At first glance, you will notice the bird’s bright red face, which is one of its unique characteristics. Other than that, it is also known to have very arboreal habits. You can spot them in the undistributed wet zone forests of Sri Lanka and in a few of the tall riparian forests of the drier parts. They usually live in pairs or sometimes in small groups. Sinharaja is the perfect place to spot this unique bird.

Laseraid exists to make laser ownership easy and affordable. We know the industry inside out and can provide you with advice, devices, service solutions, training and consumables, all at affordable prices. Laseraid is highly committed to providing high-quality devices, suitable for every circumstance.
Laser machines can be used to treat a number of different conditions. The Candela GentleYAG is most commonly used for hair removal but is an extremely versatile machine capable of treating many other skin conditions such as vascular and spider veins.
Spider veins are small varicose veins that appear closer to the surface of the skin. They are often red or blue and look similar to spider webs. Most commonly, spider veins are found on a person’s face or legs and are more likely to affect women than men due to the production Estrogen, which supports their growth. Spider veins can also be caused by the build-up of blood and factors such as sun exposure, lack of exercise and a poor diet.
Laser therapy can effectively treat spider veins by sending very strong bursts of light through the skin onto the vein. The laser energy coagulates the blood inside the vessel causing it to collapse and seal. The treatment takes for 15 to 20 minutes but no longer than 1 hour. Usually, only 2 to 5 sessions are required to permanently remove spider veins.

The Accidental Library Marketer
The Accidental Library Marketer fills a need for library professionals and paraprofessionals who find themselves in an awkward position: They need to promote their libraries and services in the age of the internet, but they've never been taught how to do it effectively. This results-oriented A-to-Z guide by Kathy Dempsey - longtime editor of the Marketing Library Services newsletter - reveals the missing link between the everyday promotion librarians actually do and the “real marketing” that's guaranteed to assure funding, excite users, and build stronger community relationships. Combining real-life examples, expert advice, and checklists in a reader-friendly style, this is the complete how-to resource for successful library marketing and promotion.

Knee Joint Pain is a problem that is hitting almost everyone with age. But, as and when we go to a doctor to get ourselves treated, we are often told that the cartilages have worn out and exercising daily is a must. This is often accompanied by prescriptions that necessitate daily visit to the physiotherapist at least for the succeeding 2 weeks. This sometimes proves to be frustrating and unending. Keeping such frustrations in mind, we have come up with the following simple techniques that you can adhere to and get knee the most sought knee joint pain relief.
Effective Knee Joint Pain Relief Remedies
Opt to take up martial arts daily. Tai Chi has testified to be a remarkable knee joint pain relief remedy.
Since you have already fallen into the problem of knee pain, don’t try exercising all of a sudden. As soon as you confront the problem, allow your knees to rest for a few days. Opt to take massages and hot bath. Paraffin wax bath is of great avail and offers great knee joint pain relief.
Once the knee pain subsides, start working out daily. Exercise each of your knees daily. Get aid from a physiotherapist or a gym instructor and ensure that he work out is effective.
Joint pain relief creams also help to some extent and give a temporary relief.

Elevate your knees above your body level and sleep.
A dosage of Ibunex that is rich in Ibrufen and glucosamine would really be a powerful knee joint pain relief remedy.
Maintain ahealthy weight. If you are overweight, then you might end up in knee joint pain just because the pressure of your weight is too heavy to be tolerated by your knees and foot.

Dip an elastic bandage sheet and a blanket in this wax solution (make sure that the sheet should not melt in the heat) and place it around your knee joints at a point when the heat retained in the sheet is tolerable. This is one of the best and effective knee joint pain relief tactics known till date.

A rose to the memory of all those who laid down their lives in the service of our country as we celebrate the Memorial Day weekend. The names of most have been forgotten as the years go by, but their sacrifices should never be forgotten or taken for granted. They will remain forever hallowed in the memory of a free people.
A rose to the New Hope baseball team. The Trojans on Saturday night had a chance to win the Mississippi High School Activities Association Class 5A state championship in Pearl. Some of the best high school baseball is played right here in Lowndes County. Remember: The Trojans won it all last year. The team, under coach Lee Boyd, have spoiled us, in a way. But consistent success at this level should not be taken for granted. A winning culture is hard won. That's why we tip our caps to the Trojans.
A rose to Tom Velek and Roger Short, the two men most responsible for bringing this week's President's Cup, and roughly 5,0000 visitors, to Columbus. Velek is the tournament director while Short is the head of the Columbus-Lowndes Recreation Authority. The two have worked for almost four years in securing the prestigious event for the city as a showcase for the Columbus Soccer Complex and the community that calls it home. That's four years of lobbying for the building of the complex and months of preparations for this tournament. With every indication that the tournament will be a rousing success, we find it appropriate to acknowledge Short and Velek for their special contributions.
A rose to the writers in our community. By writers, we mean residents who have responded to our standing invitation for Letters to the Editor. In recent weeks, we've noticed an up-tick in submissions on a variety of subjects. We have long stated our desire that the Opinion pages of The Dispatch serve as a forum for readers to share their views because we believe the diversity of opinions offered by letter writers creates a real dialogue in our community and is one indicator of a healthy community.
A rose to the ambulance service at Baptist Memorial Hospital-Golden Triangle, which was one of three hospital ambulance services to receive the Lifeline EMS Silver Award, given by the American Heart Association's Mission. The award is given for 75 percent compliance on response and treatment for heart attack victims. BMH-GT's ambulance service successfully treated at least eight STEMI patients over the course of 12 consecutive months. STEMI is a type of heart attack caused by a complete blockage of blood flow to the heart. To prevent death, blood flow must be restored as quickly as possibly by opening the blocked vessel or by giving clot-busting medication, according to the hospital.

Beware of Buying Into Blackhat Marketing Methods
In the race to have your website ranked highly in search engine results pages, don’t fall for blackhat marketing methods. Blackhat marketing is a term used to refer to marketing that isn’t ethical.
Instead of focusing on productive, long term strategies, those who practice blackhat marketing are looking for quick, short term results. Not only can blackhat marketing traps negatively influence customers, but they can also result in your site be permanently banned from search engines.
Since search engines are a major way of gaining traffic, you don’t want to do anything that would jeopardize your good standing. It’s important to learn what these blackhat marketing methods are and what you can do for traffic and rankings instead.
Originally, search engines ranked a site based on the number of links to it. This quickly led dishonest website owners to create a system that is now commonly known as link farming.
A large pool of webmasters would each link to other websites that in turn linked to them. If Webmaster A had fifty people working with him then he had fifty links to his site, making his site seem more valuable to search engines.
Of course, this method is no longer effective due to the increasing ability of search engine algorithms to recognize this technique. Instead, try to get links from websites relevant to your own. Contact webmasters of sites that are well written, informative and have a strong PageRank in the search engines.
Another common blackhat method is to stuff pages with keywords. This can be done by using words that are the same color as the background or by simply writing sentences that overuse the keywords.
Regardless of the method used, this is still a poor idea and search engine algorithms will penalize your website. Instead, try using keywords in your text headings, naming your website pages appropriately, setting up your permalink structure correctly, and writing well thought out sentences instead of garbled keyword rich paragraphs.
An additional blackhat method to avoid is doorway pages. These are pages that contain keywords relevant to the visitor’s search term but they contain no real information and don’t contribute to the website.
These pages might get you ranked in search engines but they’ll eventually be detected and your site could get banned. Instead of using doorway pages, write articles relevant to your business and submit them to search engine directories.
Include your website in the bio box or body of the article (if allowed) and you have another link to your website. You can also comment on blogs related to your niche and receive traffic that way. Just make sure your comments are relevant and on topic – not spammy.

Packers improve to 3-1 on the season after win over Giants, and once again, credit goes to the defense
GREEN BAY — The Green Bay Packers on Sunday night, October 9th took care of the New York Giants to improve to 3-1 on the season — and once again, it was the Packers defense that played the major role in this victory.
Green Bay remains the best in the league at stopping the run — after allowing only 43 yards on the ground to the Giants Sunday night. Granted, the Giants don’t have many top notch healthy running options, but the Packers are stacking success, as Coach Mike McCarthy likes to say, in that area — and despite the absences of starting cornerbacks Sam Shields and Damarious Randall, visiting QB Eli Manning found the going to be pretty tough through the air — so the Packers won, 23-16 with another plus performance from Dom Capers’ defense.
“If you really want to focus on one group, it’s gotta be the defensive line. The amount of rushing yards they’ve given up in four games, I just heard, is incredible. The lack of rushing yards. And the pass rush, you know, with Nick Perry being dominant. I think I can say that, at times, it’s fun to watch. Those guys are playing outstanding and then you got the three backers who have been playing really well too. So Dom gets the credit for the game plan. And you’ve gotta give a lot of credit to the guys who went out and executed really well,” Packers QB Aaron Rodgers said.
Here’s what other Packers players had to say in the locker room after Sunday’s game:
Packers offensive guard Lane Taylor:
“Every week we are getting better. We are smoothing things out, working together as a unit. Every week we are trying to get better and get in that good groove so that four quarters put it all together.”
Packers wide receiver Davante Adams:
“That’s their version of making plays, they’re not going to be catching the ball, our O line that is, they’re making plays and doing what they need to do and it pushes us to make sure we’re getting open and giving Aaron a good target.”
Packers offensive tackle Brian Bulaga:
“That’s our job, their job is to get open and make plays, our job is to block for Aaron and everyone’s got a job and we just gotta do it, and just because we do our job well, it’s just what we are suppose to do.”
Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari:
“It’s good always when you get into a groove, it always makes it easier on the offense and the ability to get after them in the run game and also the pass game be sturdy and keep Aaron clean that’s huge it fires us up, you saw it with the Rip play and you saw it with Aaron, Aaron’s talking about it at the end of the game about how happy he was.”
Packers running back Eddie Lacy:
“We were able to run the ball, pass the ball pretty much whatever we wanted to do, I know we stalled out a few times but that’s just part of the game just to be able to pick up first downs you needed whether its run or pass and we have the ability to do that I think that’s a great sign for our offense.”
“Home games are the ones we, we have a reputation around here for winning those so we just have to continue to grind those out and having them back to back to back like that having them keep packing the stands and keep feeding off of each others energy.”
“we just want to continue to to get better we don’t want to, we want to continue to fly under the radar we don’t want anyone to talk about us, tell us how good we are we just want to keep continuing to grind and try to find a way to win games.”
Packers defensive back Micah Hyde:
“Great to get the win but at the same time the NFL is so week by week you are only as good as that last game so we can go out the next game and lay an egg and everyone’s going to forget about this game so you gotta stay tunnel vision and this game is over with so now we are on to Cowboys and it’s going to be a new week.”
The Packers defense will be tested next Sunday, October 16th at Lambeau Field.
Their stellar rush defense will match up against the Dallas Cowboys’ prolific rushing attack, which is one of the best in the NFL.
Kickoff is set for 3:25 p.m. — and it’s a game you’ll only see on FOX6!

Designed around the new Bantam, this novel job stresses quick engine change at the field for dual competition in both Classes A and B. It is a nice ship to build and fly.
DESIGNED BY MAURICE SCHOENBRUN --- BUILT BY HOWIE BEECHMAN
THE Tomahawk, born of a modeler's nightmare, turned out to be a pleasant dream come true.
Imagine, if you can, a gas model that may be used for Class A, B, and C, with only a few minutes required to change from one class to another. The Tomahawk has these possibilities, if the motor manufacturers put out a small Class C motor about .31-.35 cubic inches displacement. At present we have two units, a Bantam and an Ohlsson "23," thus making it a two-class job-A and B. As we mentioned before, these units are interchangeable and may be switched by removing four bolts that hold the units in the lower section of the fuselage.
Although unorthodox in design, the results obtained more than justified its appearance. Some of the more outstanding features of the Tomahawk (that's some handle, by the way) are:
1. Interchangeable motor units, thus making it eligible for Class A, B, and possibly C.
2. Easily dismantled for quick transportation and storage.
3. Very stable due to its short nose moment, low C.G., and the proper location of the C.L.A.
As yet the Tomahawk has not been contest proven, but we hope to go places with it very shortly. Test flights in calm air (no thermals) averaged 1 minute, 45 seconds, to 2 minutes, 30 seconds.
The fuselage represents the acme in efficiency and simplicity of construction. The main fuselage (or blade of the Tomahawk) is constructed of 3/16" sheet 5" wide (or one sheet 3/16 x 2" and 3/16 x 3" glued side by side to form 3/16 x 5") and Blocks A, B, C,. and D. All blocks are of soft balsa. Blocks A and B may be cut from 3/4" sheet. Block C is 1-1/2 x 2-1/4 x 5-1/2". Block D is from 1" sheet. All blocks are now tapered as shown in front view. (Dimensions in front view are overall and include the 3/16" sheet sides.) After tapering blocks, glue sides and let dry overnight. When dry, cut assembly to profile as shown in side view.
Before rounding and trimming edges, glue upper and lower halves together, lightly. The purpose of this is to have the upper and lower halves conform with one another. After sanding smooth, split the halves apart.
Take the lower half and install landing gear as shown. Be sure to cement liberally. The next step is to glue a piece of 1/8 x 1" birch plywood to each side. These act as motor unit bearers. The top of the plywood must be flush with the top of the lower fuselage. Now insert pegs as shown in drawing.
The lower half may be set aside and work begun on the upper half. The first step is to build the crutch from hard balsa. See drawing for dimensions. While crutch is drying, glue upper half of fuselage to crutch. Drill a 3/16" hole in upper block to accommodate the lower longeron. The next step is to glue lower longeron into drilled hole and pinch end together and glue, as shown in drawing. We are now ready to insert up-rights and the 1/8" square stringers. See cross section of tail boom. Insert and glue pegs for wing mounts and fuselage clips.
Cutouts may be made after motor unit is installed -- this to facilitate the proper location of exhaust hole, etcetera.
Now the fuselage is complete and may be set aside.
Rudder and subrudder are constructed of 1/4" sheet. Scale up drawings to full size. The outline of the upper rudder is made of soft sheet. Spar and ribs are made of 1/8 x 1/4" medium balsa. While upper rudder is drying, construct lower rudder of 1/4" hard sheet. Glue subrudder to fuselage, then trim edges to form flat airfoil. Upper rudder may now be trimmed and sanded.
Stabilizer is constructed in the conventional manner. Lay out leading edge and pin down to plan. Next cut trailing edge from soft sheet. Tips are then notched for the spar which is of 1/8 x 1/2" balsa. Before gluing spar in place, taper it from 1/2" at the second rib from tip, to 1/4" at the tip. Now glue all ribs in place. Ribs are tapered from 1/4" at the trailing edge to 1/2" at the spar. Front ribs are made of 1/8 x 1/2" glued in place and then sanded round to conform with airfoil. Also sand leading and trailing edge to complete airfoil.
The wing is nothing sensational but is highly efficient. The first step is to cut all ribs as shown in full-size plate. Next lay trailing edge, which is made from 3/16 x 3/4" soft balsa. The tips are cut from 3/16" sheet. Notch tips for spar, which is made from 3/16 x 1/2" hard balsa. Taper spar from R1 to 3/16 at tip. Next, glue ribs in respective positions. Glue 1/4" square leading edge in place. After drying, trim trailing edge and tip, sanding to a smooth finish.
After wing is dry, split at the center and raise tips so that the dihedral at Rib R1 is 1-1/2". Butt-join spar at the center. Place 1/8" sheet on each side of the spar as shown on drawing. Be sure that each side of the wing at Rib RI is 1-1/2". After center joint is dry, cut wing at Rib R1. Spar joint is made in the same manner. Tips are raised to a five-inch dihedral on each side. Next reglue all joints where wing has been broken to form dihedral. Glue sheet of 1/16" along 1/8" square upper spar. When completely dry pull down sheet to leading edge and glue in place. Trim excess. Next step is to glue the 1/16 x 1/4" cap strip, starting from the rear of the 1/16" sheet along the rib and overlapping the trailing edge. This prevents the trailing edge from warping. When all glue joints are dry, sand all edges. Sand cap strips into trailing edge.
The wing is now complete and may be set aside.
The drawing shows an Ohlsson "23" unit, which we shall describe. Before constructing unit, study drawing carefully. First step is to construct the base or motor mounts which are made from 1/2 x 3/8" gumwood. Next glue into position the 1/2" sheet coil mount as shown in drawing. Drill holes for mount bolt after placing motor mounts in lower fuselage, making sure that mounts are flush with motor bearers. Countersink rear nuts and glue into position; also glue front nuts. This is to facilitate easy removal. Remove unit from lower fuselage. Next construct battery box to accommodate two pen cells. When battery box is completed, glue into position on Motor mounts. Coil may now be placed into mounting and securely glued into position. Timer is mounted as shown in drawing, using a 1/4" strip of .030 brass. This strip is held to the motor mounts with 1/2" wood screws. Next mount condenser by gluing underneath and across motor mounts. Next, motor is installed on its mounts. Take a piece of .040 wire and solder in the form of an x, as shown in drawing; solder this to the top of the needle valve. The purpose of this is to make the needle valve easier to turn from the outside. Next the unit may be wired as shown in drawing. Be sure that all joints are properly soldered. (Remember that a cold iron makes a poor joint.) The timer arm extension is made from a 1/8" bolt. A nut is placed on each side of the timer arm. Solder nut on the left side to the timer arm, making sure that the nut and not the bolt is soldered, as the bolt must be removed before fuselage can be taken apart. Also insert 1/8" peg in Block D which sets into a hole in Block C to prevent shifting of fuselage.
Bantam unit is made the same way as the Ohlsson unit except mounts are made from 1/2" square gumwood. Due to the larger size of the Bantam mounts, the sides of the battery box may be eliminated.
The tail boom and fuselage are covered with silk. Wet silk so that stretching may be simplified. Wings are covered with light bamboo paper. Stabilizer and rudder are covered separately and glued together after being doped. When doping the fuselage, sand lightly to insure a smooth finish. From three to four coats of clear dope will be sufficient.
After model is dry, a few coats of colored dope may be added. The original was painted gray, with red trimmings.
Model may now be assembled. Before assembling the two halves of fuselage, make wire clips as shown in drawing. It is best to make about a dozen of these clips as they get lost very easily. Clips are used to hold the two halves together. Wings and tails are held on with rubber bands.
To fly with Ohlsson, wing and tails may be set at zero incidence as the model is balanced approximately sixty per cent behind leading edge of wing. Hand-glide model. If diving tendency is shown, increase positive incidence in wing.. If the model stalls, add positive incidence in stabilizer. When good glide is achieved you are ready for power flight. Give motor slight left thrust and right rudder so it will climb left under power and glide to the right when engine cuts. For Bantam motor use the same procedure as above, with the exception that a small amount of positive incidence may be necessary in the stabilizer as the motor is slightly lighter than the Ohlsson.
Now that all has been said and done (we hope) you should go to town. Although the Tomahawk looks like a flying ax, its performance will amaze you. One flight and you will be convinced that you have a potential record holder.

EVE Online has made first contact with a whole new group of sci-fi fans, through some carefully chosen TV advertising. EVE's first TV ads were shown during the most recent Battlestar Galactica episode on the SciFi network. If CCP Games wanted to target the viewers who would be the most receptive to checking out EVE, they didn't go wrong by choosing Galactica fans. The TV ads were an unexpected move, and came as a big surprise to many EVE players. Ethic at Kill Ten Rats said: "My jaw hit the floor while watching the latest episode of Battlestar Galactica on SciFi tonight. There, before my eyes, was a commercial for EVE Online. Amazing. Nice work CCP!"
High visibility TV adverts for an MMO had previously been something only associated with Night Elf mohawks, Shatner, and a company with some rather deep pockets. EVE Online dev CCP Wrangler made a full announcement about the company's leap into prime time advertising.

The anti-corruption legal core that was determined final month to examine critical crime cases was asked to start work in sequence to solve cases that are pending.
“A series of comparison supervision officials are indicted of crime therefore they do not wish a anti-corruption core activated,” pronounced Khan Zaman Amarkhail, conduct of Afghan Anti-Corruption Network (AACN).
Meanwhile, other watchdogs pronounced a anti-corruption management should be giveaway of domestic interferences.
“The core should be independent. It should consider a cases of absolute figures,” pronounced Yama Turabi, a authority of a Independent Joint Anti-Corruption Monitoring and Evaluation Committee.
The Attorney General’s Office duration pronounced they are operative on a emanate and that they will start their activities in a nearby future.
“We have taken measures. The secretariat is operative on scheming a collection and comforts for a center. Prosecutors will be allocated as well,” a Attorney General’s Office orator Basir Azizi said.
The anti-corruption legal core is approaching to consider large crime cases that reportedly engage a series of comparison officials in both a prior supervision and a obligatory government.

So for a while I was thinking about moving over from console gaming to PC gaming, and I finally decided to build two gaming PC's (one for myself and one for my brother). I went with Ryzen, because of all the great things I heard about it and the amazing price to performance ratio. I immediately slapped on a 3.8 GHz overclock to the CPU through the UEFI, and I was surprised how well the stock cooler handled it. Unfortunately on my brother's end, he got unlucky in the silicon lottery and I just left his CPU at stock clocks. I was originally planning to buy a Gigabyte AORUS XTR RX580 for a butter smooth 1080p gaming experience, but GPU price inflation was too high, so I went with a cheaper ASUS Dual GTX 1060. All in all, the experience of building my own PC was great (although cable management could've been a bit better), and I definitely recommend building your own PC if you are a newcomer to the PC world.

How many times a day do you mutter, “Where’s my motivation?” How often does it answer, “Yo. I’m over here.”? If your motivation does, you are 15 steps ahead of me. I know that it’s hard to find the get up and go to get up and go sometimes. I struggle with that on a daily basis. The problem is not finding your motivation, though- it’s maintaining it. It’s easy to find the motivation to make a change once or twice… but to do that consistently? Man.
Now I know you’ve had those moments, probably many, many, many times, where you’ve just had enough. You step off the scale and declare: “Today is a new day. I will not eat my kid’s Halloween candy. I will exercise. I will not drink more than 1 glass of wine tonight. Okay, maybe two. But still- I will be motivated!”
Or you see someone running outside and say out loud, “I wish I had that motivation.” and keep driving your car right through the drive thru.
Or you simply think that if you had the motivation, you would be able conquer the world!
What if I told you that motivation is simply a trick of the mind? An excuse? A scapegoat?
Well, friends, it is. Many people ask me where I get my motivation to work 3 (sometimes 4) jobs, cook for my family (I do pretty much daily), exercise, eat healthy, prepare my meals, be a decent mom, an okay wife, and a subpar per diem house cleaner? The answer is simple. I follow these 7 steps.
Step 1- Identify your why
Starting anything is easy and knowing why you want change is 95% of the battle. The first step to truly maintaining motivation through your journey is to write down why you started. Open up a Google Doc, find a sticky note, or simply pull out an old school marble notebook. Write down WHY you want to change. Don’t worry about the how. Don’t worry about the outcome. Don’t worry about the obstacles. Just why. This forces you to understand the underlying problems with your current lifestyle and knowing that there is a purpose to what you are doing.
Why shouldn’t be “to lose weight”. That’s a goal. No, you why should be anywhere from “I need to get healthy or I will have to take drugs for the rest of my life” to “living longer for my children” to “I need to be a better wife” to “I want to be a healthy role model for my kids”. It can be specific or vague, but your reason why has to be significant and meaningful or you won’t stick to it. Once you write this down, you should put it everywhere you possibly can. In your mirror. On your fridge. As the backdrop of your phone. On the Halloween candy container. Everywhere. The more you see it, the more you remember it.
Step 2- Be honest with yourself
This is so hard. People will tell you to keep a food journal… but I am here to tell you that that’s not enough. If you have a tendency to ignore small items you’ve eaten or you don’t measure out your portions, this will be a waste of your time. I’m a lot like that in the sense that if I don’t account for everything, I will not estimate very well. Same thing with my finances. If I don’t budget every single cent that I spend, I will likely go in the red. So when my calories are in the red, I will go back and change the portion or find a different food entry that matches my caloric needs. So I basically will use my food journal to lie to myself. Not very helpful. So, until I was brutally honest with myself, I was not accurately accounting for my behaviors.
The real motivation, however, comes from brutal honesty. If I realize that after my second glass of wine, I eat like a pig. I had to face the realization that my glass of wine was perfect for relaxation, but my second glass of wine wreaked havoc on my goals. So, after being brutally honest with myself, and facing something I would have never faced had I not HONESTLY looked at the choices I was making.
Step 3- Understand your path and embrace where you are
Sometimes you need to sit down and write what you’ve accomplished. You can take a piece of paper, fold it in half, at the top of one side write: Before this journey and at the top of the other: Now. This will do two things. This will allow you to face some of the demons or roadblocks you struggled with in the past and truly understand how you worked past them. You have already come a way, even if you’re on day two. Understand that you are on a journey to better yourself inside and out. To understand that will allow you to see past the scale, or past the setback, or past a missed workout. Only when a missed workout becomes 2-3 missed workouts does it become a problem.
So, understand where you’ve come from, how hard you’ve worked, and know that you do not want to start over. You do not want to be back here next year. You want to keep propelling forward, even if it means that you have to backtrack a few steps. Your journey is your journey alone and where you come from makes all the difference. Your path is yours alone and your purpose is only driven by you.
Step 4- Give yourself credit
This is likely the step I struggle the most with… I have a hard time giving myself credit. But, once I started, it became easier.
You need to allow yourself to make mistakes. Motivation often comes from success propelling success, but what happens when you don’t feel successful? What happens when you feel like you’re failing? You quit.
But I’m here to say, don’t quit. Instead, you have to give yourself credit for every single moment you made the right choice. Every single time you killed your workout. Every single time you drove past the drive-thru. Every victory is victory. Remember how much you have done and how far you have come. You made this choice. You and you alone. You decided that you wanted to be healthier and fitter. The choice that you made, even if you are struggling to stick with it, was a choice that was a good one. Give yourself the credit you deserve. Pat yourself on the back.
Step 5- Stop making and allowing excuses to dictate your life
Ouch. That one hurt. This probably should have been either number 1 or number 7. But I decided that this should be post number 5, just because. Here’s the thing: I’m queen of excuses. I have called myself on that in the past and I have always allowed excuses to get in my way. I have a thyroid disorder, I’m tired, I am in pain, I… I… I… But the reality is that excuses are the vehicle to your own pity party- and no one’s showing up to that. Trust me. In order to truly be motivated to change, you have to remind yourself that the reasons you are justifying your lack of drive are just excuses.
I used to allow other’s judgement of me (or so I thought it was judgement, it was really me judging myself… but that’s for another day) to stop me from achieving what I wanted to do. I also used to allow my kids to be a crutch, my mood, my illness, my busy life, my husband… you name it, I’ve blamed it. But until we really become honest with ourselves (throw back to step 2, here) we will not really be able to make a lasting change.
So, write down all of your excuses, cross them out, and put them where you will be reminded that they are getting in your way.
Step 6- Surround yourself with people who get it
Part of finding your mojo is finding the people who are mojoing with you. I know that’s not technically a word, but if you think about how you are affected by the people around you, you realize that your mood can often be altered with the positive vibes of a lifelong friend. The same can be said for the negative vibes of people in your life. It may not be possible to just stop talking to Aunt Irma or totally cut your boss out of your life, but you can effectively change your circle by adding more positive people who ‘get it’ to it.
You could also sign someone on to ‘get it’ like your spouse or sister or dog. The point is that you have to have people around you that you can depend on; both good and bad days. You have to have people who want to hear your story, who want to help you motivate. Not people who tell you it’s okay to give up or that make you feel that you are not worthy of this change.
There are many people who will tell you what you think you need to hear and not the truth, too. Those people mean well, but they can be dangerous. You need people who are willing to listen, help you reason through the feelings, This is why success partners, challenge groups, and social media are tremendously helpful when you are taking on any journey. Once you recruit the right people, you become a team, and you are unstoppable.
Step 7- Choose a mantra based on your goals
And say it over, and over, and over again. Mine, as of late, has been from Sommer Tucker: “Each choice you make will either lead your closer to or farther from your goals.” I know that’s a long one, but all I say to myself is “Closer or farther, Claire?” Sometimes out loud. (Reminder, this is about motivation, not about senility.) There are so many mantras you can pick, depending on your need for motivation. If it is motivation to keep you nutrition on point, find a quote by someone you admire and keep repeating it (like mine). If it’s to keep moving, maybe “Just keep swimming” (song and all) would be a perfect fit. If it’s to make a difficult choice, “Be the Change”. There are always mantras that can further your goals.
By having a conversation with yourself, you are addressing the choice before you make it. You are calling yourself out before it’s too late.
And much like finding your why and writing that down, identifying your goals is the ultimate motivator. By addressing what you want to do, how you plan to do it, and why you are going to do it is the first step. Finding mantras and putting them everywhere (think fridge, mirror, notebook, laptop, Facebook, etc.) right next to your whys, crossed out excuses, and goals will remind you when you have a hard time reminding yourself.
Motivation is the vehicle for your success and self love is the fuel. You find your determination when you realize why you need to make your change. And that will make you unstoppable.

CANNES, France — A day after joining more than 80 women for a protest at the Cannes Film Festival, Salma Hayek said Sunday that change for women in Hollywood already is happening.
In a conversation that was part of the “Women in Motion” talk series at Cannes, Hayek said her production company is having trouble keeping up with the demand for female writers and directors. The actress-producer said she has sold four TV shows about women this year.
“I can’t find enough female writers and directors,” Hayek said. “They’re all busy. The change already happened.”
Hayek said much work still needs to be done, particularly on the issue of equal pay. The 51-year-old actress said she hasn’t been insisting on equal pay yet because male stars and producers still need to adjust.
But she repeatedly spoke positively about progress behind the camera.
“Maybe you don’t see the difference in the numbers, but it just happened this year,” Hayek said. “It worked. And I think we should enjoy it.”
Hayek also remarked on her allegation of sexual harassment against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein in an op-ed in December. Weinstein at the time issued a lengthy statement of denial. Hayek said Weinstein specifically contested her claim and that of Lupita Nyong’o because they’re women of color.
“It was a strategy by the lawyers, because we are the easiest to get discredited,” Hayek said. “It is a well-known fact, if you are a woman of color, people believe what you say less. So he went attacking the two women of color, in hopes that if he could discredit us, he could then maybe discredit the rest.”
In the wake of the scandals that have followed Weinstein’s downfall, Hayek said men in Hollywood “are terrified” and that “predators are hiding.” But she said the #MeToo movement also is a great time for men “to rethink what it means to be a man.”
“This is a new era for men,” Hayek said.

Coleman: Jacuzzi, Sir?Just took a bath. Didn't turn on the jets though ... didn't want to wake the house. Not sure how audible it is outside of the bathroom.
Billy Ray: Jacuzzi? See, I knew you all was faggots!
Coleman: It's a whirlpool bath, Sir. I think you'll enjoy it.
Billy Ray: Heey! This is all right! When I was a kid, we wanted bubbles, we had to fart in the tub!

Meet Maggie Fortenberry, a still beautiful former Miss Alabama. To others, Maggie’s life seems practically perfect—she’s lovely, charming, and a successful agent at Red Mountain Realty. Still, Maggie can’t help but wonder how she wound up living a life so different from the one she dreamed of as a child. But just when things seem completely hopeless, and the secrets of Maggie’s past drive her to a radical plan to solve it all, Maggie discovers, quite by accident, that everybody, it seems, has at least one little secret.
The beloved Fannie Flagg is at her irresistible and hilarious best in I Still Dream About You, a comic mystery romp through the streets of Birmingham, Alabama, past, present, and future.
Everyone in Nashville knows Nathan Dumont. That’s what happens when you develop half a town and sleep with the rest.
Four years ago, his fiancee disappeared.
Last night, he proposed to me.
I’d wanted to escape my life, the seedy strip club and the mountain of bills. I had seized the opportunity to live in a mansion, fill my days with country clubs and caviar, my nights with romance and sex.
Maybe I should have done my homework first.
This is a rework of Torre’s Dumont Diaries series and the last day to get for $.99
Duchess isn’t a club for girls like you.
It isn’t safe for those too innocent, too inexperienced.

I can tease you. Teach you.
I will show you the true meaning of pleasure.
Are you brave enough, pet?
There is one little catch.
This club caters to a very specific desire…
They will hear your every mew.
They will see your every tremble.
They will know exactly when I make you mine.
You belong to me, little one.
And this is how I prove it.
When you offer me your innocence, I will take you…

The judiciary is the system of courts that adjudicates disputes and legal matters. For example, in Class VII, you looked at the worker who was injured. As several hospitals refused to admit, his condition had deteriorated. He filed his complaint with the Supreme Court. The judges ruled that Article 21 confers on every human being the “right to life”, which is a fundamental right. It is also about the “right to health”. In addition, he ordered the Government of West Bengal to pay the amount of compensation to the worker. He also called on the government to create a primary health care plan where patients can be treated directly in an emergency. [Pashim Banga Khet Mazdoor Samity v.
State of West Bengal (1996)] The first high courts were established by the British in 1862 under the presidencies of Madras, Calcutta and Bombay. The Delhi High Court was established in 1966. Currently, India has 25 HC. While several states have their own HC. The states of Punjab and Haryana have a common Supreme Court in Chandigarh. Northeastern states such as Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram and Nagaland have a common HC in Guwahati. Telangana (Hyderabad) and Andhra Pradesh (Amravati) have separate HCs as of 1 January 2019. For better accessibility, only a few HCs have their benches in different cities. For example, Maharashtra HC has its bank in Nagpur outside Mumbai.
Similarly, the Gauhati High Court represents states such as Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh and Mizoram alongside the state of Assam. According to Class 8 justice, there are three different levels of courts in our country: According to the principle, every Indian citizen has the right to access the court. It simply means that everyone has the right to justice in court. It has already been explained how the courts play an important role in protecting citizens` fundamental rights. If a person finds that his or her right is being violated in any way, he or she can go to court at any level to seek justice. Every citizen has the right to seek justice from the Indian courts. All Indian citizens have access to the courts. If you read a newspaper, you will come across some articles that mention the work of the courts in our country. These courts are necessary to uphold the “rule of law.” All people are equal in the eyes of the law, and if they violate the law, a certain set of fixed procedures must be followed. To enforce these rules, India has its own judicial system. In this system, there is a court mechanism that people can turn to when faced with cases where laws are broken. There are three different levels of dishes in India.
In civil matters, the claim must be brought only by the person concerned before the competent court. Grade 8 Civic Education in Social Studies, Chapter 5, Justice will help students find answers to questions such as What do you mean by an independent judiciary? Or why do we need an independent judiciary? Each state of India is divided into different districts. The courts of these districts are presided over by the district judges. The judiciary is the system of interconnected courts that administer justice on behalf of the State. It is the mechanism for settling disputes and punishing the guilty. There are three different levels of dishes in our country: 1. The courts with which most people interact are so-called subordinate or district courts, which are usually located at the district or tehsil level or in cities and hear many types of cases. 2.
Each state shall be divided into several districts headed by a district judge. Each state has a High Court, which is the highest court of that state.3. At the top is the Supreme Court, located in New Delhi and headed by the Chief Justice of India. The decisions of the Supreme Court are binding on all Indian courts. The judiciary is the system of courts that declares, defends and applies the law in legal matters. The work of the judiciary is divided into three categories: The different levels of justice in India are interconnected. The judicial system is integrated in our country. This means that the decisions of the higher courts are also binding on the lower courts. Another way to understand this characteristic is the appeal system that still exists in our country.
This means that a citizen has the right to appeal to a higher court if he considers that the decision of the lower court is not justified. The “separation of powers” is one aspect of this independence. This means that the two branches of government, the executive and the legislative, should not interfere in the work and decisions of the judiciary. Indian courts do not operate on behalf of or under the control of the Indian government. Answer: Every citizen of India has the right to justice through the courts. However, access to justice is still difficult for a large majority of the poor in India, as it requires a lot of money, paperwork and time. The decision of a higher court is bound by the lower courts. The courts are not subordinate to the government.
An independent functioning ensures that no power is abused by the executive or legislative branches. The judges of the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court are appointed by the President of India after consultation with the Governor of the State concerned and the Chief Justice. Answer. A large majority of poor citizens in India have struggled to access the courts. The poor, who are both financially weak and illiterate, find it difficult to go to justice if their human rights have been violated in any way. It was in the 1980s that the Supreme Court introduced the PIL, or Public Interest Litigation, mechanism, which allows the poor and illiterate to obtain justice.

Hosting a podcast is the ultimate educator. You can feel like you’re coming away with a PhD just by having a handful of interviews. So, does your podcast improve your personal growth?
Welcome to Should I Start A Podcast.
I’m Ronsley Vaz. Each week I, with the help of a star-studded entrepreneurial guest lineup, explore why you should start a podcast, build an audience, and how to keep them hungry for more.
If you’re thinking about starting a podcast or simply looking for a better way to get your message out to your audience, then this is the podcast for you.
Jordan Mendoza is swiftly becoming a podcast pro.
Jordan has over 25 years’ experience in sales & marketing and 14 years’ experience in the Multi-Family Housing industry. Within this setting, he learned the ultimate lesson; the best asset you have is your personal brand. If people buy into you, they trust you and therefore invest in whatever you’re offering.
This methodology works both from a sales perspective and a podcasting standpoint.
In January 2020, Jordan finally plucked up the courage to start his own podcast, Blaze Your Own Trail Podcast. So, as the title suggests, he scours the world interviewing influential people who have blazed their own trail in business and life. These conversations taught him more than any formal education could teach.
Today, Jordan also teaches a six-month leadership program, which is predicated on the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. Attendees take the assessment. Then, over six months, they enter onto a leadership journey to learn about emotional intelligence, strength-based leadership, conflict, coaching, and feedback, and how to develop a high performing team.
In this episode, I get schooled on the art of creating value. Jordan also talks about content creation and how it took his LinkedIn profile from 7,000 to 60,000 followers in 16 months. We also hear about the interview that sticks in his mind and what it taught him about his personal growth.

- Standing next to Russian President Vladimir Putin at a press conference on Monday, US President Donald Trump indicated that he believes Russia over the US intelligence community when it comes to the Kremlin's meddling in the 2016 US election.
- When asked whether he would publicly condemn Putin for Russia's interference, Trump proceeded to bash the Democratic National Committee, the FBI, and the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton.
- Trump said that while he had "great confidence" in the US intelligence community, Putin was "extremely strong and powerful in his denial" of Russia's election meddling.
- Republican lawmakers condemned Trump's statements, and some former government officials and intelligence veterans suggested his remarks rose to the level of treason.
Following a high-stakes one-on-one meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday, US President Donald Trump refused to say he trusts the US intelligence community, bashed the FBI and the Democratic National Committee, and indicated that he believed Putin over American intelligence agencies.
After the Associated Press White House reporter Jonathan Lemire asked Trump during a joint press conference with Putin who he believed and whether he would publicly denounce Russia's interference in the 2016 US election and warn Putin never to do it again, Trump declined to do so and appeared to pin the blame on the US.
"We have two thoughts," Trump said. "You have groups that are wondering why the FBI never took the [DNC] server. Why haven't they taken the server? Why was the FBI told to leave the office of the Democratic National Committee? I've been wondering that."
He added: "With that being said, all I can do is ask the question. My people came to me … They said they think it's Russia. I have President Putin. He just said it's not Russia.
"I will say this," Trump said. "I don't see any reason why it would be."
Trump's comments flew in the face of the US intelligence community's findings in January 2017 that the Russian government mounted an elaborate, multifaceted campaign aimed at elevating Trump to the presidency.Trump has long been reluctant to accept that conclusion, and he is said to believe it undermines his 2016 election victory.
He indicated as much on Monday, touting his Electoral College victory and denigrating Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state who ran against him in 2016.
"What happened to Hillary Clinton's emails?" Trump said. "Thirty-three thousand emails gone, just gone. I think in Russia they wouldn't be gone so easily."
Trump said that while he had "great confidence" in the US intelligence community, Putin "was extremely strong and powerful in his denial" of Russia's election meddling.
Putin, meanwhile, said the "final conclusion" on the issue of Russian meddling would be made by the US courts and not "by the law enforcement" or any member of the executive branch.
Putin also pushed another frequent talking point, saying that some of the Russians who have been indicted in the Russia investigation, led by the special counsel Robert Mueller, were not part of the Russian state.
The US intelligence community has long believed that the Kremlin often uses proxies and outside groups to do its bidding in order to maintain plausible deniability.
Referring to the indictment of 12 Russian intelligence officers announced Friday, Putin said the special counsel should send Russia a request for criminal extradition and that the Russian government would "analyze it properly" and "send a formal response" back to the US.
"Let's discuss the specific issues" and not use US-Russia relations as "loose change for this internal political struggle," Putin said.
Trump stuns national-security and intelligence veteransTrump's comments ignited a firestorm among US lawmakers, foreign-policy experts, and intelligence veterans.
Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Trump missed an opportunity to "firmly hold Russia accountable" for its actions and warn it not to meddle in the US electoral process again.
"This answer by President Trump will be seen by Russia as a sign of weakness and create far more problems than it solves," Graham said.
"This is an astounding news conference even by Trump standards," said Michael Carpenter, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense. "The President of the United States just questioned publicly the conclusions of the US intelligence community and spread conspiracy theories to excuse Russia's cyber attack on the United States. Treasonous."
John Brennan, the former director of the CIA who has frequently criticized Trump, also suggested Trump's comments constituted treason.
"Donald Trump's press conference performance in Helsinki rises to & exceeds the threshold of 'high crimes & misdemeanors,'" Brennan tweeted. "It was nothing short of treasonous. Not only were Trump's comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin. Republican Patriots: Where are you???"

Remke Custom Connectors for Weatherproof Applications
Adapted Application Solution
Outdoor, Weatherproof Custom Connectors
Corrosion & UV Resistant Molded Connector
A major global technology company was developing components to support wide-area Wi-Max wireless broadband networks. Their system included a Wi-Fi router to be installed on existing assets such as street lights and light poles. They needed weatherproof cable & connector to route 100-volt power to the router which were certified for outdoor installation. The technology company found Remke Industries on the internet and contacted them with a RFQ and sample request. Ultimately Remke was competing against two larger, more well-known connector manufacturers.
The Remke Engineered Solution:
To meet the specific requirements of the application, the Remke Flexible Solutions team determined that an Adapted Application Solution would be the best answer.
The Remke Flexible Solutions team:
- Developed a molded mini-style 3-pin black rubber connector with UV resistant black type SOO-W cable and a mating receptacle
- SOO-W cable was chosen as it is UL Listed & CSA Certified for indoor/outdoor use with excellent resistance to ozone, weather, sunlight and water
- Had the connector tested by the customer with results that exceeded their design specifications.
The Remke Flexible Solution was described as “the most robust” and was installed on routers sitting atop light poles with cabling to the ballast at the base of the pole.
A Second Challenge:
Within a short time the customer asked the Remke Flexible Solutions team to develop a second solution for their router. In this application a connector was needed to connect to an energized photo cell on the top of a streetlight. Working with the vendor supplying the existing street light photo cell, the Remke team designed another Adapted Application Solution that utilized the photo cell as the power source for the Wi-Fi router. In this new system, the vendor terminates 3 feet of SOO-W cable from the mini-style molded connector into their photo cell. Once again, testing demonstrated that the Remke Flexible Solutions team had developed a system that exceeded the customers’ design specifications.
Both Wi-Fi router solutions continue to be utilized in all installations to date.

Q: What's the deal with these insurance cancellation notices?
Q: Whatís the deal with these insurance cancellation notices?
A: About 15 million people purchase health-insurance policies on the individual market. Thatís about 5 percent of the population.
When they do so, they typically purchase a 12-month contract with an insurance company. And when that contract runs out, both the individual and the insurance plan have an escape hatch.
The individual can decide to no longer purchase the plan, and the insurance company can decide to no longer offer the plan.
There are some restrictions on how insurance companies can terminate products.
HIPAA, a health law passed in the 1990s, does require that insurance companies offer subscribers the opportunity to renew their policy, so long as they continue to pay monthly premiums.
If it wants to discontinue a subscriberís policy, the insurance plan must provide 90 daysí notice and ďthe option to purchase any other individual health-insurance coverage currently being offered by the issuer for individuals in that market.Ē
And these are the notices that insurance plans are sending out now, to hundreds of thousands of subscribers: They do not plan to offer the policy anymore and will provide information about what policies will be available.
Q: So why is this happening?
A: Some ó or maybe most ó of the plans offered on the individual insurance market donít meet requirements in the health-care law.
They might not offer preventive care without co-payment, for example, or leave out coverage of maternity care, one of the health-care lawís 10 essential benefits.
The health law allowed plans that existed back in March 2010, when it became a law, to keep selling coverage. These are known as grandfathered plans: They donít meet the health lawís requirements, but as long as they donít change much, insurers can keep offering them.
These cancellations are, essentially, a lot of grandfathered plans exiting the insurance marketplace.
Q: What does this have to do with the Affordable Care Act?
A: Because the health-care law required insurance companies to change their plans, this is a direct result of the Affordable Care Act.
Q: Why did nobody see this coming?
A: President Barack Obama has repeatedly said, since the health law passed, that if people like their insurance they could keep it. Which is a weird promise to make when one of the key goals of the health-care law is to change individual market insurance coverage.
There are lots of insurance policies, especially on the individual market, that are bare bones and donít meet the requirements of the health-care law.
The cancellation notices are a feature of the Affordable Care Act. The idea was to make insurance coverage more robust ó and that means cancelling policies that offer less-thorough coverage.
Q: Does a cancellation mean Iím uninsured?
A: No. As mentioned earlier, insurance plans are required by law to tell you about other options they offer if they discontinue their policy. Thatís what the sample language from the administration essentially does.
Individuals with discontinued policies will have the option to purchase through the new insurance marketplaces (well, if they start working a little better), or they can do so outside the new marketplaces, pretty much like they have in years past.

The Dallas Mavericks prepare for the new season with many questions that we will attempt to answer by predicting their starting lineup and rotations.
The Mavericks opening day starting lineup provides an interesting conundrum: will Dirk Nowitzki start at the four or the five? Harrison Barnes, Wes Matthews, and Dirk Nowitzki all started every game they played in last season. That doesn’t look to change. With Dennis Smith, Jr.’s impressive summer and the lack of another dynamic guard, it seems likely that he’ll be starting as well. So who gets the last starting spot?
It likely comes down to Nerlens Noel and Seth Curry. Curry started in 42 games last year, and coach Rick Carlisle loves the three-guard lineup more than perhaps any other coach in the Association. Noel protects the rim, but doing so leaves Dirk Nowitzki to try and guard a four who likely moves to the perimeter.
The Starting Lineup
Three players determine the future of the Dallas Mavericks right now, and Harrison Barnes is the headliner of that core. One of the most efficient high-volume isolation scorers in the NBA last season, much hay has been made of the fact that the old 2011 Dirk plays just passed down to the still-25 Barnes. I’m betting on Barnes seeing a lot of time at both forward spots this year, starting at the four with Dirk’s defensive limitations keeping him at the five most often.
Look for Barnes to take another giant step with his handle after a full year and another offseason working with God Shammgod, and see if he can get his legs under him for a more consistent three-point shot this year as he continues to carry a heavier load than he ever did in Golden State.
Dennis Smith, Jr.
Dennis Smith, Jr.’s potential is an often discussed topic. Suffice to say that he is likely to start at the point and learn from the masterful coaching of Rick Carlisle—a coach who has a reputation of disliking rookies, but also hasn’t ever really had a good one (Dorian Finney-Smith started nearly half his games last season).
Matthews is the type of player who will always work hard. He will give all his effort, play defense, and make smart plays. The only question is whether or not his shots can fall and his legs are under him. He had games ranging from 10 threes to none last season, and more consistency will be necessary if this Dallas team wants to make a surprise playoff run in the twilight of Dirk’s career.
The Big German enters season twenty this year, as he continues to cement his legendary status with Wilt Chamberlain in his sights at number five on the all-time scoring list.
Dirk is likely to start at the five for Dallas because he just can’t guard fours anymore, in no small part due to the way that he changed the game himself at the position. His defensive rebounding rate is still close to 30%. With proper body position and his still-quick hands, he holds up okay in the post. With his floor spacing for the rest of the team, Curry, Matthews, and Barnes should be free to launch away while Smith slices up defenses.
Curry started more and more as the season went on last year, showcasing quick hands defending the fast break and some good instincts learned from Devin Harris on taking a hard-nosed charge when it counted.
Curry has also been a consistent bright shooting spot for the Mavericks and looks to finish out his bargain deal on a high note as he enters free agency next summer.
The Rest of the Core
Noel officially signed the qualifying offer, a highly surprising decision for an incredibly injury prone player who had $70 million on the table. He placed a bet on himself in a year where numerous other centers will be on the market, and the value of his position is perhaps at a nadir.
Market realities aside, Noel still possesses all the tools of a 2011 Tyson Chandler starter kit. He can screen, roll, finish, and defend the rim. Coming off the bench, likely for Dirk’s traditional early sub-out, he should energize the remaining starters and enter into a deadly dance with the rookie Smith with shooters around the perimeter.
Down the Depth Chart
Dorian Finney-Smith likely plays the next most minutes if he can find any consistent 3-point shot. Last season, as a rookie, he started more games than any other rookie since Marquis Daniels in Dallas. His defense and athleticism are useful, but he has to be able to shoot to earn a larger role in the NBA.
Yogi Ferrell had a surprising season last year, starting 29 of his 36 games with the Mavericks and scoring seemingly at will sometimes. He is an undersized guard who lacks Smith’s athleticism or Curry’s shooting, and will likely take the most backup guard minutes with J.J. Barea and Devin Harris behind him.
Dwight Powell is likely to be the next big off the bench behind the core seven Mavericks above. Salah Mejri will come in when the team needs some energy (and perhaps a foul or two) and Jeff Withey as an intriguing flier defending the rim as well. The Josh McRoberts trade could lead to an unexpected boost at the four if he can find some semblance of health after playing more than 50 games only three times in his ten-year career.

French philosopher Andre Comte-Sponville writes:
What is fanaticism? Fanaticism is mistaking one’s faith for knowledge or attempting to impose it through force. The two almost invariably go hand in hand: Dogmatism and terrorism are mutually reinforcing. This is a double offense – against intelligence and against freedom. Thus we must combat it doubly – through lucidity and democracy. Freedom of conscience is a human right and a prerequisite of intelligence.
Religion is a right, and so is irreligion. Thus, both must be protected – if necessary, one against the other – and protecting them means ensuring that they are not imposed through force. This is why the separation of church and state is the most precious heritage of the Enlightenment. Today’s world is rediscovering how very fragile that heritage is. All the more reason to defend it against all forms of fundamentalism and pass it to our children.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress ofgrievances.

Your best friend's wedding is all set to be the event of the year! You are excited, feeling responsible (a bestie has duties to perform) and you are over the moon for her. But there is that tinge of sadness because your best friend who you did everything silly with is now moving away and the centre of her universe will be her man. What can you do to make the most of your time with her before she gets married? Here are 9 experiences to share.
This tops our list because not only does a mini vacay give you more time with one another, but it also acts as a stress buster, what with all those wedding preps to be handled. Head to the calming mountains or sunny beaches and play outright girly!
The next best thing to a vacation is spending an entire day with your best friend, especially if both of you have busy work schedules. Put those phones aside and spend 24 hours together and talking about life, relationships, career; go catch a movie or two and a dinner thereafter and end the day by telling her how much she means to you.
You are never too old to put on your pjs, dim the lights a bit, devour popcorn and ice cream in the same go and gossip and any and everything (or everyone) in the world... for gossip between besties is the best thing on earth!
A shopping date in which you unburden your purses by splurging on clothes, shoes, accessories, home décor, etc. is what best friends do together. Make it productive by helping her out with her wedding shopping or better still, help her set up her new home.
Unwinding and spending some time at the spa getting pampered would be a dream for any bride and her chief assistant (A.K.A you- the best friend). Getting away from all the stress of planning the wedding, treat yourself to a full body massage top it up with a manicure, pedicure and all the other beauty essentials women love and have a great shared experience..

The most pocket-friendly way to spend time together can be by cooking each other's favourite meals at home and enjoying a hearty dinner over a chatty conversation.
Signing up for classes like ballroom dancing, yoga, painting, etc together is a fun way to be together, all the while learning something new. Make it worth your while and choose a physical activity. Not only does it make for fun bonding but will ensure you stay in shape to fit pretty wedding dresses.
This might sound like a clichéd, but if you don't have matching tattoos with your best friend, then who else would you have it with? Okay perhaps your hubby to be is a better idea. So if you are not up for something as serious as a tattoo, an easier and definitely less painful thing to do is get a professional photo shoot done just for the two of you, another memory to cherish forever!

Barack Obama can trace his roots to the heart of the heartland -- and while there's no place like home, even family connections are unlikely to make the difference in Kansas.
Obama's mother was born in Kansas, a factoid he's played up in advertisements and on the stump as she seeks to highlight his cross-cultural, red-state appeal.
Yet that may be the extent to which Kansas is a battleground in 2008.
What's the matter? Notwithstanding some recent Democratic successes, Kansas remains solidly conservative, with a large rural vote and a high number of religious voters proving unwilling to vote Democratic at the national level. The state sits astride a sea of red, a near-certain six electoral votes for the McCain-Palin ticket.
Obama may have stood his best chance to make Kansas competitive if he had chosen Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, D-Kan., as his running mate. But while Obama and Sebelius are close, many observers predicted a backlash from Clinton supporters if he tapped a woman who isn't named Hillary Clinton, and Obama went in a different direction.

Just 48 hours after the election was called and exit polls had fully confirmed that Romney pulled fewer Latino votes than the Republican candidate in any recent election, GOP congressional leaders, tails between their legs, began promising a new push for immigration law reform. But as the once-stalled reform process lurches back into action, familiar and vexing questions are quickly emerging: What qualifies as “reform,” for whom and at what price?
The votes weren’t even fully counted when Republican leaders signaled they were ready to return to the negotiating table. On Thursday, House Speaker John Boehner said he would support changing immigration laws. “This issue has been around far too long,” he told ABC’s Diane Sawyer. And on Sunday, the promises began to take some form when Sen. Lindsay Graham, the South Carolina Republican who two years ago fled all reform efforts in protest of Obamacare, announced a reinvigorated bipartisan effort.

Your freight rate primarily depends on five factors:
- The type of freight,
- The mode of transport (truck, ship, train, aircraft),
- The weight of your shipment,
- The size of the shipment and
- The distance to the delivery destination.
Calculating your freight rate can be a complicated process that is highly dependent on your particular shipment and the carrier.

Exercising can be a real drag. We all know that. We all suffer through that reality each and every time we decide to, you know, get healthy or whatever. One of the great things wearable technology has been able to do is provide a handful of easier ways to get out there and sweat, via the magic of fitness tracking and related techs. However, what about using the old treadmill? It’s boring as heck! If only there was a complex hardware unit that made using the treadmill about as fun as, well, playing your favorite video game. Luckily, that time is almost here.
Introducing the appropriately named TreadGaming, a device that is placed on your treadmill that tracks your movements and translates them to in-game motions, meaning that using the treadmill has your avatar walking around the virtual universe in real time. It looks totally awesome! Finally, you won’t have to walk by moving a stick. You’ll be able to let your feet quite literally do the walking (or running, if you are into that kind of thing.) It works in tandem with a Wiimote nunchuck device, which allows you to handle the third person movement as your legs handle the traveling. It’s a pretty sweet setup.
Of course, this is some pretty out there tech and, as such, as not on the store shelves of your favorite virtual exercise store. You’ll have to hit up their Kickstarter and plunk down some coins in order to pre-order your own unit. It has already blown through the funding goal so this device is a sure bet for a release. It’s just a matter of time.

Sunderland’s transfer budget this summer has been the subject of much speculation.
David Moyes’ departure at the end of last season – when both owner Ellis Short and chief executive Martin Bain had wanted him to stay – caused alarm bells to ring around Wearside, and rightly so.
Moyes had already spoken of what he needed to get Sunderland back into the Premier League, and his desire to be the man at the helm.
The news of him walking away following talks with the club’s hierarchy gave many fans cause for alarm – even those who were glad to see the back of the Scot.
Whatever was said in those meetings seemingly made Moyes feel continuing in the job would be a thankless task.
New manager Simon Grayson arrived, eventually, promising to bring in new faces and insisting that while Sunderland won’t have the biggest budget in the division, it certainly won’t be the smallest.
No club would want to publically declare how much they have to spend, for good reason. Any selling club will merely alter their asking price accordingly if they know a buyer can afford more.
But as Sunderland brace themselves for a long, hard Championship season, is having a huge transfer budget the be-all and end-all in any case?
Certainly life is easier with no financial worries, but throwing money at a promotion challenge does not guarantee anything in this division.
Just ask Aston Villa.
The Midlands club were relegated in 2016 and used their financial power to bring in a host of players last summer, spending in the region of £50m in the process.
Their speculation amounted to very little however, and the then-manager Roberto di Matteo was dismissed with the club staring a relegation battle in the face.
New boss Steve Bruce steadied the ship somewhat, but they still only managed to finish 13th in the table.
Huddersfield, on the other hand, spent next to nothing, and are now preparing for the first season in the Premier League.
The difference? Terriers’ manager David Wagner boxed clever and brought in players who could deal with the long, hard scrap the Championship season is.
There was talent in the ranks at the John Smith’s Stadium, make no mistake, but the mentality was crucial.
Sunderland fans won’t want to be reminded of it, but Rafa Benitez followed a similar blueprint at Newcastle – the key difference being that the Spaniard had money from the sales of the likes of Gini Wijnaldum and Andros Townsend to play with.
Players such as Dwight Gayle, Matt Ritchie, Isaac Hayden and Ciaran Clark were signed because Benitez was convinced they had the mental strength to survive the Championship.
Simon Grayson understands this too.
He knows the Championship, he appreciates what it takes to survive and then succeed in this toughest of divisions.
On his very first day in charge, he said something which should give all Sunderland fans encouragement.
When talking about recruitment, he said: “It’s got to be the right people coming in.
“They’ve got to have the heart, the desire, the will to win, never-say-die attitude and team spirit I’ve tried to create at every football club I’ve been at.”
That should music to the ears Black Cats supporters.
Sunderland won’t be making the headlines with multi-million pound deals this summer, but they have a manager who is trying to bring the right players to the club.
One of the reasons why they find themselves in such times of financial hardship is that big-money deals have been sanctioned for players who couldn’t live up to their pricetag.
Those days are gone, and it’s no bad thing.
If Grayson gets it right this summer – and there is still a long way to go on that front – then Sunderland may just find themselves in a situation of having players worth more than they were bought for.
That can only be good for the club – good for their promotion prospects and good for their long-term future.
It’s going to be a very interesting few weeks.

"I've been flipping cars for years now and thought I knew everything there was to know. CarFlipping.com filled in the cracks for me and provided a platform to do it even easier! Thanks!"
1978 Toyota FJ40 Black Show Custom
What a cool strance. Wow. Great pic as well. Those land cruisers can bring big money. Especially the low mileage originals. Congrats on this deal! Vintage 4x4s are the best.
Did this have the original 2F motor or a V8? I'd love if you would share a bit more about your success on this one.
I specifically work in these Toyotas. They are my bread and butter. Finding them with the V8 conversions and power steering or even if possible and automatic is always a winner! Everybody wants these
These are also great ones to restore yourself. I know the money is not in restorations but parts are so readily available and customization is cheap finding things at a junkyard to put in these such as power heated seats make them worth gold!
Aren't they notorious for rusting on the rockers? Usually covered up by diamond plating, watch out for that
Horsepower, that is so true I purchased one with the diamond plating and apparently everybody that was shopping for them knew to look for it. It took forever to sell. Did not make a bunch of profit. One reason to go and do your research on niche vehicles
Habit you are so right. Also always try to buy them with some kind of top whether it be a hard top or canvas people always will want a top on these
I have found that it is easy to obtain tops on craigslist and restore them myself. It can take about a day to do but they look great with a little amount of work
Has anybody ever seen one of these with a custom half cab? Just saw one on eBay and it was going crazy. Somebody just had it made from the original top.what a great idea
I like the ones that have the rollup Safari style. It seems to get more attention. The idea of eBay is the stranger the car the better it will probably due for some reason
JP you are right the odder the car the better it sells. And most of the time they will go overseas. They really like crazy muscle cars in addition to our big four-wheel-drives
Speaking of overseas has anybody else worked with shipping to another country? Or do most of the time we just get it to the port and they take care of it?
Lisa I have sent many cars overseas. Most of the buyers will call me and they already know how it works they can get it to the port themselves literally just need to send the title with car
Rich you are right I have also sent a car overseas. It seems as if the shipping companies are very knowledgeable on how the process works and do not want to lose the title because it makes it harder for them. They were extremely anal about getting it done the correct way into their client in Australia out when I get it

Black bears in Alaska maul two in rare attacks
This week, two men met their fate at the paws of two separate black bears in what can only be described as incredibly rare and unusual attacks. On Sunday, 16-year-old Patrick Cooper was chased down and killed by a black bear during the Robert Spurr Memorial Hill Climb race south of Anchorage, Alaska.
The following Monday, a Pogo Mine contract employee 300 miles northeast of Anchorage was also fatally mauled by a black bear and another employee injured. Names of the victims have not been released.
While most bear attacks stem from a mother defending her cubs, Alaskan officials believe that these were rare predatory incidents. “It's very unusual,” Alaska Department of Game and Fish (ADGF) spokesman Ken Marsh told the Associated Press with regard to the maulings. “It's sort of like someone being struck by lightning.”
According to the Associated Press, Cooper phoned his brother as he ran from the bear during the race. Several hours later, the teen’s body was located a mile up the path where the bear was still guarding it. A Chugach State Park ranger shot the 250 lb bear, which then ran and officials have yet not been able to locate it.
This is the first fatal mauling in the Anchorage area since 1995 when two people were killed in the Turnagain Arm area by a black bear protecting a moose carcass; however, in 2013, a fatal mauling did occur near Delta Junction, the Associated Press reports. Regardless, while these two occurrences happened within a day of each other, officials say bear attacks like these are not typical and the proper precautions should be taken when recreating in bear country.
Bear experts told the Alaska News Dispatch that bear attacks can be divided into two categories: defensive and predatory. Proceeding with caution when confronted with a bear is essential to survival. Tom Smith, an associate professor at Brigham Young University who's studied bears since he worked as a biologist at Katmai National Park in 1992, says that firearms should be used for bear protection, especially during a predatory attack. However, retired ADFG bear biologist John Hechtel says that bear spray can provide courage to those who need to stand their ground and, according to the Alaska News Dispatch, offers the following tips:
- Stop moving.
- Have bear spray ready.
- Talk calmly, especially if it's clear the bear is in defensive mode.
- If the bear appears predatory, yell or throw wood or rocks at it.
“Some [bears] are very shy,” adds Hechtel. “Some, guaranteed, if they think they can take you out, they will do that.”

Deciding With A Best Printer
Identify your exact printer so sort what type of replacement ink to buy and how to buy your replacement cheap ink cartridge. One size does not fit all when it comes to tattoo. An HP printer may have a totally different replacement cartridge compared with Canon printer and even different Canon printers may have a different size and shape within their respective printer ink cartridge. The exact type of printer that have always be printed clearly on it and most likely be a mixture of the brand name and many letters and numbers. You need to share ALL ones numbers buy to obtain the most accurate reading on what printer the. For example, I own a Canon Pixma MX310.
The Manufacturer's monthly recommended duty cycle is always blown way out of proportion from what the device can certainly handle. A comprehensive rule of thumb will be printer can handle about 20% of need to be followed recommendation. This information is also important when you are trying to 'Right Size' a printer to match your needs.
Some persons have been scared by false advertising this means using compatible and remanufactured cartridges will void their printer warranty. That is false. Laws have been passed causeing this to be illegal. Within U.S., the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Improvement Act protects your rights alongside your printer warranty.
When picking out a toner cartridge, another option is to buy a compatible one. A lot are unaware they really exist. Customers think by using the compatible toner cartridge their warranty regarding the printer will be void, however in fact, in the area false. Every single time a consumer purchases the original OEM cartridge, they are spending double the money compared to what they should hire. While both types work, it is about the customer to pick which type added with. Hundreds of dollars a year can be saved with the compatible some. Compatible cartridges are guaranteed to function. Some people, however, prefer to does work name brands, regardless with the savings in money, kind of reasons or due to company insurance policy. One thing to keep in brain is that companies may sell compatible, remanufactured and name brand toner replacements.
(b)INJECTOR - This is a kind of injection device or a syringe which injects the ink properly into the ink toner cartridges manufacturer cartridge. Using it correctly will make work clean as well as simple.
However, please be aware that HP Q6002A toner is only one toner at this point compatible this particular printer. Major other toner cartridges too that you can use with HP LaserJet 1600 printer. Simply refer printer manual to discover the compatible toner cartridges which supports.
Stretching your ink needn't be difficult. Just use the ink wisely and follow quick and easy guidelines so its possible to get the most from your inkjet.

BM&R #425 . My version of the Blue Mountain & Reading #425 Pacific class 4-6-2 steam engine, using Big Ben Bricks custom train wheels. . This is my LEGO version of the Blue Mountain & Reading #425 Pacific class 4-6-2 steam engine. The #425 is currently owned by Reading & Northern rail company, a still very active railroad hauling goods and freight, which uses the #425 as an excursion train. She only recently was put back into service after a very lengthy overhaul, much to the delight of rail fans.
I've built her as a 7-wide, which, while hard to build, works very nicely to scale steam engines to minifigs, at least at this size of engine. I never would have been able to complete her had it not been for Big Ben Bricks' new blue custom large steam engine drivers and small train wheels.
Due to the death of steam as a mainline workhorse, facilities and fuel capable of supporting an operational steam engine are few and far between. Because of this, the #425 is run with a secondary tender, which is used as a canteen. I decided to go ahead and build it as well.
I've never been good at the cab details in my steam engines, but I've done what I can. I added a nice 2x2 tile with a decal I recently discovered, as well as the generic driver's chair. You can also see how I've had to do some interesting construction to float the floor and walls of the cab so that the white pin stripe would not be effected by the black plate that would have been underneath it otherwise.
This is the first tender I've yet built with a semi-accurate coal bunker. All of my previous coal tenders have used the "coal" as a roof, hiding a hollow interior. But this tender (and the auxilliary tender) have a sloped bunker, with the coal sitting inside.
This shot illustrates that the #425 is fully track-ready, capable of negotiating the tight radius of the LEGO track. It is able to accomplish this due to the ingenius design suggested to me by Ben Fleskes, whereby the pony (lead) truck is split in two, fixing the rear pair of wheels to the frame attached to the drivers. This essencially functionally transforms this locomotive to a 2-8-2 configuration.
More photos, including in-progress and blueprint pics, can be found via FLICKR.
Or if Flickr isn't your thing, the finished pictures only may be found via BRICKSHELF.

Aviva Investors UK Property Fund Temporary Suspension of Dealing
Aviva Investors UK Property Fund and associated Feeder Funds temporary suspension of dealing.
The Aviva Investors UK Property Fund owns a range of UK commercial properties including offices, high street shops, shopping centres, out-of-town retail parks, distribution warehouses and leisure facilities. It can also hold some property company shares and cash. To calculate the daily share price of the Funds, those properties are regularly valued by a Standing Independent Valuer – in our case Knight Frank LLP – using recognised professional valuation standards.
The Covid-19 virus has impacted the UK property market and made it difficult to value the property owned by the Funds with the same degree of certainty as would otherwise be the case. As a result, the Standing Independent Valuer has advised us that there is material uncertainty for all assets associated with future valuation.
This challenges our ability to calculate the price used to buy and sell shares/units in the Funds, and we believe there is a material risk that investors may buy and sell shares/units at a price which does not fairly reflect the value of those shares/units. If we allow dealing to continue some investors may be advantaged at the expense of others.
Consequently, Aviva Investors UK Fund Services Limited has taken the decision to temporarily suspend all dealing in the Funds with effect from the 12 noon valuation point on 18 March 2020. This means that any instructions to dealing in the funds which are received after 12 noon on 17th March will not be accepted. The decision has been made to safeguard the interests of investors and has been agreed with the depositary of the Funds, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited.
Suspension of dealing means we cannot accept instructions to buy, sell, transfer, switch or exchange shares/units in the Funds until further notice.
We are also aware that you may have additional questions, so we have prepared a Questions and Answers document that you may find helpful.
See contact details below if you have any questions regarding the temporary suspension of the Funds or would like further information.

I became a reader of the Missionary Herald because it was an excellent primary source in English of information about Hawaii in the early 19th century. As a dealer in Hawaii and the Pacific I found the reports of the first American missionaries from about 1820 to 1840 to be fascinating eye-witness narratives about life in the islands.
These communications, mostly excerpts from letters or journals, were printed in the Missionary Herald, small monthly periodicals issued by the Boston based American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM). The issues were eventually indexed and came out yearly as bound volumes. Each one contained numerous reports not only from Hawaii, but from many other parts of the world. Also included were some of the publications of other mission groups and a detailed accounting of various financial contributions to the cause. It was one of the most popular magazines of its day and circulation was substantial.
The Missionary Herald reports from Hawaii in this period cover all the islands, along with the personal and religious observations of the writers. Though most of what was published is text, there are also a few maps and line illustrations scattered through the years.
While the writing of American Protestant missionaries may leave something to be desired in the journalism department, there are several points to be made in their favor. The Hawaiians had no written language and the missionaries opened schools throughout the islands, translated scripture into Hawaiian, brought in printing presses (and sent back to Boston to request an additional supply of the letters “K” and “A” to do the job). They printed millions of pages in Hawaiian both religious and secular. The missionary devotion to literacy and education, however heavily skewed to their own point of view, can not be denied.
In the process they interacted with Hawaiian royalty, rode horseback or traveled by sea to remote parts of the islands, and without hesitation or second thought did their best to suppress and eradicate the indigenous culture and impose their own views. In passing they freely stated their observations on everything they observed from hula dancing (they were against it) to the character of the people (passive and subservient to their rulers and chiefs), the physical proportions of the natives (very large), their dwellings (dirty and with the inhabitants living side by side with dogs and pigs), native religious beliefs (idolatrous), and other events of the day such as volcanic eruptions (impressive).
Many of you know the bones of this story: How the Brig Thaddeus left Boston in 1819 and was not heard from again until almost two year later; how the intrepid Americans found the islands in a state of turmoil with the old idols overthrown and the old king dead; how they interpreted this as a sign of Divine Providence that the “pagans” would be receptive to their message of a new Christian God, and the teachings and morals of their religion and so began an era that has repercussions to this very day.
At their best these reports are a mix of exciting informative first-person observations combined with very detailed statistics. They liked to quantify everything: this many instructional pages printed, that many students at school, this number converted to Christianity, or that number lapsed or fallen from the faith through drink or fornication. At their worst, with their undeviating emphasis on proselytization, the Missionary Heralds can be tedious religious tracts.
From the point of view of Hawaii, the Missionary Heralds become less interesting after 1840, both because the missionaries are no longer viewing the scene with fresh eyes and also, after 1839, when the French forcibly introduced Catholicism to the islands, the Protestant writers become more concerned with their struggles to prevent their flock from straying toward Rome and devote less energy to recording the actual events of the day.
It should also be noted that almost without exception the reports of the missionaries are made by men from a male perspective. Missionary women, their duties and accomplishments, while substantial are mentioned only briefly and in passing. The major exception is for the wives of notable men who die in service and are thought deserving of extensive obituaries.
As collectible antiquarian material the Missionary Herald is addictive and it is challenging. Addictive because it’s sprinkled with nuggets of interesting information and challenging because it is almost entirely text, hand set in double columns in incredibly small type. Though I first started to read it to find out about Hawaii, I soon realized that the same period (1820-1840) was equally fascinating in other parts of the world.
The the reports on the missions to the Cherokees runs roughly on the same timeline as Hawaii. The issues from the 1830s are filled with detailed accounts of the development of the Cherokee alphabet, the printing of the first Cherokee newspaper, the seizure of Cherokee lands and the relocation of the Cherokee peoples. The missionaries sided with the Cherokees and played an important role in attempting to prevent these events and for their efforts were prosecuted and jailed.
Missionary Heralds also include reports from other Native American peoples including Sioux, Ojibwe and tribes located in New York, Washington and Oregon. These and others all fell into the missionary orbit, and the reports of the conditions seen first hand are consistently good reading.
This also holds true for Africa, especially Southern Africa where in the 1830s the missionaries had the misfortune to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and find themselves squarely in the middle of raging hostilities between the Zulu nation and the Dutch farmers. In this case there is little religious conversion going on as the reports are filled with accounts of the hostilities between the two sides, battles, casualties and narrow escapes as they flee for their lives.
A particularly good example of the kind of correspondence found in the Missionary Heralds comes from Borneo in 1840 where a letter from Mr. Youngblood is printed under the header: "Difficulties Encountered." In it he writes that he has just reached Borneo and is taking stock of the situation.
Trying to describe obstacles to conversion of the natives he reports among other things: the houses are built on stilts and are reached by water and therefore difficult to meet with more than one family at a time. In the morning the good people of Borneo have many other things to do so they do not welcome visitors. Mid-day it is very hot and also not a good time to pay a call. Afternoon they are all Muslims and they pray, so it is not a good time to visit. In so many word, he concludes it may be harder than he thought. Or, in the words of the famous cartoon, "How about never?"
The Missionary Heralds are at their best when describing life on the American tribal frontier, the wilds of Africa, the kingdom of Hawaii and other far off places where traditional established religion and literacy has yet to arrive. They are less interesting when writing about Constantinople, Persia, India, Ceylon, Syria and the Holy Land, all places where the missionaries encounter well established forms of worship and often a less than enthusiastic reception for their beliefs.
For the reader of history digitized copies of Missionary Heralds from 1820 to 1922 - (Volumes 1-118 complete) can be found on the internet at the Hathitrust site. (Link at end)
Those interested in actually buying copies of the publication as originally issued should be aware that prices vary widely depending on condition and whether bound or in pamphlet form. There are some, though not many maps and views; the early maps of Hawaii and other parts of the world are considered scarce and desirable. They are often quite pricey.
Virtually all volumes are also available in reprint form in various formats.
Since there were subscribers to this publication in practically every American town with a Protestant congregation it is easiest to find copies of the original pamphlets and bound volumes in New England and any part of the country settled before 1800. This publication was once so common they were tossed out with the trash. A new generation of readers, scholars and historians now seek them out. As a result prices for original issues printed in the early 19th century continue to move upward.
For those not familiar to with the ABCFM, here is a brief synopsis of the history excerpted from material found at Harvard’s Houghton Library. (Link at end)
“The American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) was founded in 1810, the first organized missionary society in the United States. By the time of its centenary in 1910, the Board was responsible for 102 mission stations and a missionary staff of 600 in India, Ceylon, West Central Africa (Angola), South Africa and Rhodesia, Asiatic and European Turkey, four different regions in China, Japan, Micronesia, the Philippines, and the "Papal lands" of Mexico, Spain and Austria. Missions to American Indians had come and gone; likewise a mission to Hawaii, where the church had achieved independence from the Board …...
“The ABCFM began as an inter-denominational society, including Presbyterian and Reformed churches, besides its core of Congregationalists. After some secessions due to the slavery issue and the formation by the Presbyterian Church of its own foreign mission board, the ABCFM was left as a Congregationalist body after 1870 …...
“In 1961 the ABCFM was formally concluded, becoming part of the United Church Board for World Ministries (UCBWM), an instrumentality of the new denomination. In 2000, the UCBWM became Wider Church Ministries, one of the four covenanted ministries of the United Church Christ (UCC).”
From a journalistic standpoint the most interesting reports came from missions to peoples of primitive cultures most of whom had no written history. These narratives are the most intriguing because, unlike the journals of early explorers or travelers who were only passing through, these were often the first or early eyewitness reports from people who were actually on the site for extended periods of time. Despite their biases, the missionaries were seeing and reporting with fresh eyes things that had seldom been noted before.
One of the most challenging tasks in reading the Missionary Heralds is to pick the reporting out from the religion, as the desire to proselytize is the main theme and the reporting on the conditions of the people, their customs, and current events is considered incidental to their main purpose, i.e. the conversion of the natives, respectively identified as pagans, heathens, idolaters, (or worse) cannibals to their own Christian faith.

Total national barley production in 2010-11 was 8 million tonnes, down 23% on an historical high of 10.4 million tonnes recorded in 2003-04. The area of land under cultivation for barley in 2010-11 has further decreased to 3.7 million hectares from a high of 5 million hectares in 2008-09. All states registered an increase in production with the exception of Western Australia. Due to good weather and growing conditions, eastern Australian regions, in particular New South Wales experienced a significant increase in barley production, up by 77% to 2.2 million tonnes from 2009-10.
Traditionally a high barley producing state since 2003-04, Western Australia experienced one of its driest seasons in 2010-11. This lead to a comparatively small harvest of 1.5 million tonnes, a decrease of 39% from 2009-10.
During the early settlement period barley was not a major grain produced in Australia. Due to the introduction of more adaptable varieties in the early twentieth century, production and area sown increased exponentially, especially during the post World War 2 period.

WASHINGTON — — Gov. Martin O'Malley on Tuesday demanded that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security explain why federal officials are deporting a higher share of noncriminals from Maryland than from most other states under a controversial immigration program called Secure Communities.
In a sharply worded letter to Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, the governor called on the federal agency to document why the program has led to the deportation of undocumented immigrants with either no criminal record or only misdemeanor convictions, when its long-stated intent is to target dangerous criminals.
O'Malley, a Democrat, wrote to Johnson days after The Baltimore Sun reported that the share of noncriminals deported under Secure Communities in Maryland is twice the national average.
More than 40 percent of the immigrants who have been deported from Maryland under the program since 2009 had no prior criminal record, according to government data.
"DHS has continuously assured us that the Secure Communities program would focus on violent criminals who pose a threat to national security and public safety," O'Malley wrote in the two-page letter. "Unfortunately, the data continues to demonstrate that DHS too often deviates from this stated priority."
O'Malley requested that the department detail, within 10 days, the basis for removing low-level criminals or noncriminals from Baltimore, where the state manages the local jail. He also sought an analysis to explain why Maryland appears to be deporting a higher share of those immigrants and a summary of any policy changes to address the issue.
And the governor signaled that he is weighing legislation in the General Assembly that would limit the circumstances under which local jails agree to hold immigrants who have not been arrested for or previously convicted of serious crimes. Democratic governors in California and Connecticut have signed similar measures recently.
"I have long believed that greater information sharing and cooperation among law enforcement agencies is essential to protecting public safety," O'Malley wrote. "But it is no longer clear to me that Secure Communities is primary focused on public safety. Instead, it appears that some cases are prioritized when a removal can be executed expeditiously."
Attempts late Tuesday to reach the Department of Homeland Security and its sub-agency, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, were unsuccessful.
ICE told The Baltimore Sun in January that the state-level data are too new to support conclusions. The immigration agency also said that frequent immigration violators — such as those who cross the border repeatedly — are legitimate targets for the program even if they have not been convicted of a crime.
"ICE's priorities consist not only of criminal aliens but also priority targets, such as those with known gang affiliations, drunken-driving arrests and those who are fugitives or frequently try to game the immigration system," the agency said in a statement.
O'Malley's letter drew praise from advocates for immigrants and some Democratic state lawmakers who want the state to increase the threshold at which local jails will honor ICE requests to keep holding immigrants.
In Maryland, and most other states, local jails voluntarily honor those federal requests for 48 hours.
"I am very happy that he has taken this step," said Del. Ana Sol Gutierrez, a Montgomery County Democrat who is carrying such legislation the House. "It shows he is reacting … to our concerns about people who have not committed any crimes… being detained and deported."
But the idea of bucking the federal agency has also met with criticism.
The California State Sheriffs' Association, for instance, opposed the law in that state out of concern that it doesn't give local law enforcement enough flexibility to decide when releasing an arrestee might pose a threat to the community, said Aaron Maguire, the group's lobbyist in Sacramento.
O'Malley's profile on homeland security issues has been higher than many other governors, so his concerns about the program might carry more weight with the Obama administration.
President Barack Obama named O'Malley last year to serve as a co-chair of a panel of state and federal officials focused on defense and homeland security.
Secure Communities, which began in some states in 2008 under President George W. Bush, provides federal immigration officials real-time access to fingerprints of people who are arrested, be it for a homicide or driving without a license. The program was expanded under the Obama administration and is now in place nationwide.
When a suspect is arrested, his or her fingerprints are sent automatically to the Department of Homeland Security, which checks a database of immigrants known to be in the country illegally.

Implicit gender bias in preferred linguistic descriptions for expected events
Language production and comprehension involve rapid integration of diverse information sources. Stereotypes—implicit mental associations among concepts—can influence event expectations and thus bias preferred linguistic descriptions. Above and beyond the effects of stereotypes on event expectations, however, can the mappings between event expectations and preferred linguistic descriptions themselves be biased? Here we provide an affirmative answer in one test case: in English speakers’ preferences regarding pronominal references to individuals whose gender is not known or determined, expectations that the individual might be female manifest in “she” pronoun preferences at a lower rate than expectations that the individual might be male manifest in “he” pronoun preferences. In large-scale experiments conducted during the 2016 US and 2017 UK electoral campaigns, where major-party candidates and fluctuating electoral prospects provided natural experiments in changing event expectations, we found that “she” references to the next head of state were consistently disadvantaged relative to election-outcome expectations. In further experiments we find that this bias also generalizes more broadly to pronoun production preferences in a wider variety of contexts. Finally, we investigate the influence of pronoun gender on event interpretation. For a rational comprehender calibrated to the production preferences described above, the signal provided by “she” that the referent may be female should be stronger than the signal provided by “he” that the referent may be male. In text memory experiments, however, we find the opposite to be the case. Our combined experimental results imply that, in linguistic descriptions of events involving a individual whose gender may not be known, speaker expectations regarding that individual’s likely gender are not faithfully transmitted — rather, expectations that the individual may be female are systematically under-conveyed. These findings pose challenges for rational theories of pragmatics, and exemplify how the tools of experimental psycholinguistics can contribute to our understanding of implicit cognition.

By Bonnie Rochman
When I got pregnant with my first child, I knew next to nothing about prenatal testing. Fortunately, I had a friend who was due just a week after me. She could not believe that nuchal translucency testing to gauge Down syndrome risk wasn’t routine in the U.S. as it was in her home country of Israel.
My friend tracked down a doctor who was getting certified to perform this test and needed some guinea pigs, so we signed up. The nuchal translucency test combines a blood draw with an ultrasound to measure the amount of fluid beneath the skin at the back of a fetus’s neck. At the time, I didn’t give any thought to why exactly I was doing this test or what exactly I would do if the results were not what I anticipated.
While wading into research and reporting for my new book, The Gene Machine: How Genetic Technologies Are Changing the Way We Have Kids — And the Kids We Have (Scientific American / Farrar, Straus and Giroux), I discovered my experience with prenatal testing wasn’t all that uncommon.
So many women I interviewed said they signed up for tests without fully understanding why or what the tests could reveal or — perhaps most importantly — what they would do if they didn’t get the kind of results they were hoping for.
In the years since that first baby of mine was born, expectant mamas can choose from an even more extensive array of prenatal testing options. Specialized blood tests and ultrasounds, along with tests using sophisticated genome sequencing analysis, join chorionic villus sampling (CVS) and amniocentesis to provide an increasingly complex snapshot of what’s going on inside your belly. But not every pregnant woman wants prenatal testing, nor does every woman have access to all the same tests.
The Gene Machine explores the pros and cons of knowing more about your pregnancy than has ever before been possible. It’s a road map that helps parents navigate the promise and peril of having children in an age of genetic tests and interventions. From my research, here are 5 reasons why you may want to consider opting for prenatal testing:
1.You are an eyes-wide-open kind of person who likes gathering lots of information.
Prenatal tests are constantly evolving, providing more of a window into what’s happening inside the womb. Here are some of the newest options: Noninvasive prenatal screening is now able to detect conditions such as Down syndrome in the first trimester through a blood draw. Chromosomal microarrays analyze fetal cells collected through invasive procedures such as chorionic villus sampling or amniocentesis, scanning for tiny genetic deletions or duplications that can be associated with genetic disorders. Women undergoing fertility treatment can have their embryos screened to make certain that only those with 46 chromosomes — 23 from mom, 23 from dad — are transferred.
2. You don’t like surprises.
What if your baby was born with a problem that could have been detected before birth? Would you regret not knowing ahead of time? Being aware of a complication before delivery can present you with a spectrum of choices. Depending upon the severity of a diagnosis, some parents may choose to end the pregnancy. Others may decide to carry on as usual, but they can consult in advance of the birth with medical specialists and choose a hospital that has the appropriate level of care for a baby with special needs. They can also seek out resources and set up a strong support system.
3. You are open to test results changing the course of your prenatal care.
Some prenatal tests can identify problems that can be addressed during pregnancy. Fetal surgery is an option for an increasing number of birth defects detected during pregnancy. Fetal surgeons have operated in the womb to correct more than a dozen conditions including spina bifida, lung malformations and some complications that can arise from twin pregnancies. Operating prenatally isn’t always possible, but it can yield better results than waiting until after birth.
4. You want peace of mind — at any cost.
Many women move forward with prenatal testing to reassure themselves about the health of their pregnancy. It’s a common and understandable reason to seek out testing, but obviously not everyone will receive results that put their minds at ease. Still, prenatal testing is the best way to learn as much as you can about your baby’s health before his or her debut. Insurance coverage varies by plan and by test. If the particular test you want isn’t covered, do you want to pay for it out of pocket?
5. You have a tolerance for risk and uncertainty.
Prenatal screening isn’t an exact science. Some more sophisticated tests can reveal tiny genetic bloopers whose significance isn’t fully understood. Blood tests such as noninvasive prenatal screening, also called cell-free DNA, only determine risk. There are false-positive and false-negative results, and accuracy can fluctuate from test to test. Only a diagnostic test such as CVS or amnio can offer a definitive result. Positive results from a blood test should be confirmed by these procedures. Before saying yes to the test, you may want to consult with a genetic counselor to fully understand your options.

The Secret Behind Kirstie Alley's 100 Pound Weight Loss
"I've lost a million pounds!" Kirstie Alley joked to Us Weekly while on Dancing With the Stars in April.
Maybe not, but the former Fat Actress star, 60, has shed 100 pounds since being on the show -- going from a size 14 to a 6.
"I feel like I'm back in my element," Alley told Entertainment Tonight. "I honestly didn't realize what I looked like."
So how did Alley -- who parted ways with Jenny Craig in 2008 after she struggled to maintain her 75-pound weight loss -- manage to stay slim this time around?
"She didn't crash diet. She wanted to lose weight the right way, but nothing was working for her, so she created Organic Liaison," a source tells the new issue of Us Weekly (out now). The slim star developed the supplement plan with doctors and nutritionists in 2010.
Alley, who came in second place on Dancing With the Stars, relies on appetite-suppressing drinks to stick to a healthy diet -- and she's keeping fit by dancing up to three hours a day with pros recommended by former partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
"She's in an amazing place," the source says.

Now he'll be behind the lens for a new authorized Beatles documentary about the Fab Four's years as a touring act. The upcoming movie is being made with the full cooperation of Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison -- the respective widows of John Lennon and George Harrison.
"I am excited and honored to be working…on this astounding story of these four young men who stormed the world in 1964," says Howard in a statement. "Their impact on popular culture and the human experience cannot be exaggerated."
The film will follow The Beatles' career from their first concerts in 1961 at the Cavern Club in their hometown of Liverpool, England, through their last public show in August 1966 at San Francisco's Candlestick Park. During that period, the band played a total of 166 gigs in 15 countries and 90 cities across the globe. The flick is expected to include rare fan-submitted footage and audio recordings of the Beatles in concert gathered by the One Voice One World production company, which brought the documentary project to The Beatles' Apple Corps Ltd.
The movie also will delve into the Beatlemania phenomenon and cultural impact the band and its performances had around the world, in context with the political and social climate of the time.
The film is being co-produced by Apple Corps; Image Entertainment, the production company Howard founded with Brian Grazer; and White Horse Pictures, whose co-founder, filmmaker Nigel Sinclair, has previously worked on such acclaimed rock documentaries as George Harrison: Living in the Material World, No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, and Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who. Sinclair tells The Hollywood Reporter that he hopes the Beatles flick will hit theaters by late 2015.
