In the midst of Stanley Cup Finals revelry, some extremely sad news comes out of Vancouver today. Twenty-one-year-old Vancouver Canucks defenceman Luc Bourdon was killed in a motorcycle accident in northern New Brunswick today.
Bourdon's agent Kent Hughes said that he didn't even know his client had a new hobby. From TSN.ca:
"I had no idea," he explained to CKNW in Vancouver. "Another client of ours, Kris Letang, said Luc let him know he was riding his dad's motorcycle with some friends a week or two ago. I have since been told—though I don't know—that he actually bought a motorcycle two days ago." [emphasis added.]
Bourdon was an integral part of Brent Sutter's gold medal-winning squad in the 2006 World Junior Hockey Championship, posting six points in six games and earning a spot on the tournament all-star team. His dream season continued when the Eagles dealt him to Moncton and he helped lead Ted Nolan's Wildcats to the 2006 Memorial Cup. He then signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Canucks that spring and played a nine-game stint with the team to start the following season. He was then returned to the QMJHL and helped lead Canada win its third straight gold medal at the world juniors.
"We are deeply saddened by today's news and on behalf of the entire Vancouver Canucks organization, I would like to extend my sincere sympathies to Luc's family," said Canucks general manager Mike Gillis in a statement.
We have a buddy who just bought a motorcycle, and this obviously hits close to home for everyone who knows someone who rides a bike. Motorcycles, lambs. Ride safely.

Visiting White Towns Of Andalusia (Video)
The first of our visits, exploring the Costa Del Sol led us to Mijas Pueblo, a white wash village just up from Fuengirola. The town was steeped in history and culture particularly holding a strong religious presence.
The town itself as you guessed was completely white, which just added to the character of the town.All in all, this was one of my favourite days of the holiday and I hope you enjoy watching the vlog as much as I enjoyed the day.

To become a leading Ayurvedic Pharma Company in INDIA in sphere of EXCELLENCE in Manufacturing, Marketing, Innovation, and serve the interested mass of the GLOBE, with the India's oldest System of Treatment.
We believe in AYURVEDIC MEDICINE & AYURVEDIC TREATISE.
Influence of our ANCIENT SYSTEM OF SCIENCE OF HEALING is growing day by day over the World in some form or the other. W.H.O. has out rightly testified that AYURVEDIC DOCTRINE is an outstanding ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE today as compared to any other SYSTEM of INDIVIDUAL COUNTRY, since AYURVEDA has a Deep History, well documented in our SCRIPTURES (VEDAS in Sanskrit), and it is realized, what was good and useful to the Humanity ages ago is still good even to this day, and shall also be beneficial in the days to come.
History Repeats. If we look back a few decades ago, The Science of Healing was considered as a MISSION from the known to the unknown, and for no consideration in return. Our Ancestors practiced HEALTH-CARE Principles as an Integral part of Life, and lived more healthier than most of us today. They were more scrupulous and observed strictly the PRESCRIPTIONS & PROSCRIPTIONS in their day-to-day life. They were much more scientific in their living habits than most of us who are shouting aloud on "SCIENCE and its PRINCIPLES" today all over the WORLD.
Thus the Influence of AYURVED, the Ancient Science, is on the Anvil-increase on the GLOBE, as Peoples are realizing its Simplicity & Usefulness.
Ayurveda Demands… "SIMPLE LIVING & AMPLE THINKING"
& It Preaches… "PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE"
"AYURVED" means "The SCIENCE OF LIVING a HEALTHY CHERISHED LONG SPAN OF LIFE".
This is a Gift bestowed upon us as a BOON from the DIVINITY & NATURE. It prevents from Deterioration, Degeneration, and Destruction of HEALTH. A pinch of Salt, a piece of Ginger or Pepper, do miracles in preventing DISEASE !
In Ancient Times, people practiced more MEDITATION, and hardly they had a chance for MEDICATION, but in this ERA OF ERRORS, we are much more dependent on MEDICATION.
All the same, we have to choose SAFE ways of MEDICATION that are suitable to our Body, OR acceptable to our BODY.
Our Body is made up of "PANCHA MAHA BHUTAS"(AGNI : JAL : VAYU : AAKASH : EARTH)
- The Great FIVE ELEMENTS (Pra-panch)
- We see and feel WATER (JAL), so also FIRE (AGNI).
- We can only feel AIR but can not see it (VAYU).
- We can only imagine AAKASH (COSMOS).
- We know EARTH(BHUMI), see, and also feel it.
When all these GREAT ELEMENTS actively exists in our Body, we are said to be LIVING. When they evaporate & EXIT from our Body, it is SCIENTIFICALLY termed as DEATH. To maintain Good Health, it is very necessary to maintainand safeguard EQUILIBRIUM of the 3 DHATUS (3 Dosha THEORY). When these 3 DHATUS dysfunction, it is termed as DOSHAS(Faulty or Wrong).
A Physician diagnoses a patient's complaints by reading the functions or dysfunctions or IMBALANCES of the 5 ELEMENTS through the 3-DOSHA THEORY, 3HUMORS-VAATA ; PITTA & KAPHA. This is known as Reading "NAADI" or "PULSE". By this method, we can know whether the Person is at EASE (Healthy) or at DISEASE (Sick). Balancing the presence & functionsof the 5 ELEMENTS in our Body, through the 3 DOSHA THEORY, and its effects, is called TREATMENT (Toset Right the Wrong). This is to be done ONLY by NATURAL means, and with NATURAL Materials or Substances, similar to the ones our Body is made-up of.
Plant-life is Nature's contribution to serve the Mankind, to overcome all sorts of HEALTH-HAZARDS.
WE LIVE ON PLANTS. WE LIVE IN PLANTS and WE GROW WITH PLANTS.
AYURVEDA pronounces treatment by which the ILL HEALTH is eradicated from the Body, on one hand, and on the other hand, promotes IMMUNITY, or Defensive Forces of the Body to COMBAT the DISEASES (Outside Bacteria).
Therefore, AYURVEDIC TREATMENT OF SYSTEM, and Substances used in the treatment are :
PREVENTIVE, PROMOTIVE, PROTECTIVE, NUTRITIVE and also CURATIVE in NATURE, All in ONE.
Safeguards "INNER STRENGTH" OR "RESISTANCE" in the Body.
Eminent Ayurveda Pandits (SCHOLARS), Physicians, Surgeons were also PHARMACISTS, by their Infinite knowledge and Great Insight, which they used for the Welfare of the Society. Out of the so many, Several Rishies, Munies, Charak, Sushrut & Vagbhata are a few, proved through available Documents & Texts.
AYURVEDA TREATISE is divided into EIGHT PRINCIPAL SUBJECTS as below:
- a) Attention to be paid to CAUSATIVE factors (Root Cause) of the Diseases, and not the Symptoms alone.
- b) Treat the Patient (the person) and not the Symptoms or ailments alone.
These were developed by the Ist Century A.D., and Principle of Medical Science was first quoted in "RUGVEDA" & "ATHARVAVEDA", 3500 years before CHRIST as per the ALMANAC of WESTERN COUNTRIES.
CHARAK SAMHITA, written prior to 1000B.C., provides remarkable insight to the MATERIA MEDICA of the ANCIENT BHARATIYA.
AYURVEDA also says,
Therefore, direct & indirect remedies to justify aforesaid principles are to be chosen while melting out treatment to a patient, aiming at two TARGETS at a time : immediate relief is ensured on one hand, and on the other hand, to treat the Case permanently, as a Curative measure.
These are the guiding principles deployed as instruments in AYURVEDIC TREATISE.
HOLISTIC TREATMENT is the Right Answer from time immemorial. Compartmental Treatment is of no use, and leads nowhere. There is NATURAL INTEGRAL COHESION of DIGESTIVE, NERVOUS, CIRCULATORY and RESPIRATORY Systems, for Good and Bad. Therefore, the treatment aimed at, must tackle all these Systems, and set matters right perfectly.
The Composition of any PATENT MEDICINE consists of NATURAL MEDICINAL SUBSTANCES which exert action in a most NATURAL way, on these 4 main Systems, said above, proportionately to combat the DISEASE, because Causative factors could arise from combined dysfunctions of these Systems in the Body, and not in ISOLATION.
It is for PHYSICIAN to diagnose and find out what is wrong in the whole System, which is a complicated
"SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS", and give proper Treatment, effectively.
There lies the Importance for a PATENT MEDICINE, a COMPOUND MEDICINE, which comprises of INTELLIGENTLY grouped ingredients that work on these 4 SYSTEMS. Wholesome use of a HERB or PLANT is preferred the components in it, are balanced rendering No adverse effects to the Body, than using single Alkaloid, a diet or Medicine. One always cannot neglect Pulp and depend upon only Juice or Extract, in Medication Practices. Synergy of Herbs is beneficial than Isolated active principle from a Plant. It is also HARMLESS.
AYURVEDA is an Ancient Science with a long unbroken legend and tradition of Safety & Efficacy. AYURVEDA can be programmed to meet with many a Man's needs, and face up to the challenges of the CENTURY, and future.
Certain Plants, Creepers, and Herbs resemble different parts of HUMAN BODY, in shape, shade and texture. This similarity is believed to be useful as a guiding factor, to treat that particularly resembling part of the Body, in case of any Health Derangement. This is the Doctrine of Signatures.
For example, take the Plant "GINSING" which resembles exactly a Human Body. So also "BADAAM" piece, Almond which resembles the EYE and EYE SIGHT. Several instances can be quoted as proven record. Yellow-Saffron is useful in the treatment of Jaundice. Sandalwood and its Oil, and Red Rose Petals are quite useful in Blood Diseases and Anemia. Milk and Milk-like substances are regarded as Promotives and Proto-Plasmic Cell Fluids.
The Greatest difference in the Western & Indian Approaches in treating the diseases is, the former concentrates on destroying Diseases by direct means of action, Whereas AYURVEDA principles help to promote and increase the RESISTANCE POWER of the Body to combat Diseases, as a positive approach, as Harmless, and free from TOXICITY. Also the Patient is not subjected to another ailment afresh as a result of the Treatment, while getting treated for the one, already suffering from.
This is an OUT-STANDING WISDOM since Centuries and from Generations.
AYURVEDA has to its credit, defining several Chapters and different approaches towards PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE. Treatment is suggested through Theories of MEDICO-LEGAL, ASTRO-MEDICAL, ACUPUNCTURE, MAGNETO or ELECTRO-WAVE Treatment, Treatment through wearing ORIENTAL METALLIC ORNAMENTS studied with GEMS, and their reflective effects cast on our system of Health(each GEM is prescribed and attributed to a Planet and its influence on the HUMANITY), Metals & Minerals in OXODISED forms combined with HERBAL EXTRACTS through methods of TRITURATION, IONISATION and POTENTISATION or ATOMISATION processes, and also through MANTRA(Taveez), YANTRA and TANTRA, since ages, and prevalent even to this day. We cannot blame TEXTS on these subjects if no useful effects are found of these Theories. We have only to blame the Practitioners of these Theories, if they are unable to give us desired benefits, which are due to certain lapses on their part.
It is very interesting to know, that each of the FIVE FINGURES of a HUMAN HAND, is associated with different ORGANIC System of the Body, and this Theory is also well documented. Further, this Theory is also well connected with "ASTRO-PALMISTRY" Science linked with PLANETS.
THUMB with Vitality and General Debility, INDEX FINGURE with Respiratory System and Stomach, The MiDDLE FINGURE with LIVER and INTESTINES, The RING FINGURE with KIDNEY and Circulatory System, and the LAST LITTLE Fingure denotes the Status of the Feet and Sexual Glands, Habits, Conduct and Character etc. It is in practice and Scientifically well acknowledged, that through PALM-READING and HOROSCOPE –STUDY, solution to treat ill health, and providing clue for suitable treatment, are possible, supported by Clinical Studies. ANTI-DOTES are prepared to counter-act the bad effects of concerned PLANETS and their influences, through MANTRAS AND YANTRAS or TANTRAS, just as any PHYSICIAN treats the disease through Remedial MEDICATION. Selection of Medication also becomes easier through this SCIENCE.
AYURVEDA is a DIVINE GIFT. It is a Boon from the NATURE, as already said. It has several and numerous chapters dealing with different subjects and modes and methods of TREATMENT. "MANTRA, TANTRA & YANTRA", are also the main subjects through which TEXTS have classified Treatment to be meted out to the suffering. One of the most important Chapter is "ASTRO-MEDICAL". Astronomy is read through the Horoscope of a Person, vice a versa, and ill effects are nullified by correcting the Doshas of GRAHAS, placed in Horoscope of a Person at a time of his/her Birth. This Science reading is not to be just checked out or dismissed. It is also one of the correct approaches to set right a Person's Health, on correct lines, and remove or lessen the Hazards of ill –health.
There is a definite reflective effect of the PLANETS on our HEALTH. Good and Bad occur according to the movements of these Planets, their houses, their mixing with the favorable or un-favorable Planets, within themselves. This is an exclusive Calculation, and it is minutely elaborate.
HINDU Mythology has explained this Science in enough Codes and Words. Even an ordinary Pujari in a Mandir, who is usually Scholar(Pandit) gives Tulsi-teerth of God, as CHARNAMRIT, with a blessing from his side, reading as " A MRITYU HARANAM, SEVA VYADHI NIVARNAM MRITUNJAYA PADODAKAM PAVANAM SHUBHAM" and further adds "AYUR-AROGYABHI VRIDDHI--RASTU". This is understood by one and all. This Pandit worships SHANKH & SALIGRAM and idols, always, without lapse, therefore, there is certain Will Power and Strength in his Words.
HINDU Mythology prescribes, SANKH, SALIGRAM, YAGNOPAVEETHAM, RECITATION OF PURANAS, WEARING OF GEMS & ORNAMENTS, and particularly VRIKSHA POOJA(Prayers of Plants) in the upkeepment of Good Mental and Bodily Health. We strongly do have faith in this.
Maintenance of EQUILIBRIUM of VAAT, PITTA & KAPHA, and failures in these 3 DOSHAS, are the root cause of HEALTH FAILURES, according to AYURVEDA. Whereas HOMEOPATHY preaches that MIND is responsible for Good and Bad of HEALTH. Also, if Internal Stamina OR Energy is lost, deterioration of Good Health starts. NATUROPATHY tells that we should have Balance of Nutrition. It is also said that, superfluous diet, sleep, awaking, too much of labour, become the root cause of debilitation. All these are the Branches of the same Science.
NAVRAS, PANCH-TATVAS, PLANETS, STARS, SEASONS, GEMS, MINERALS & METALS, have their own effect on the Human SYSTEM.
PURANAS speak that everything in this UNIVERSE has come out from the Body of the GOD-The Creator. We need not go into details in this, for the present. Birth & Death are the two ends of a Material. In a Circle, if it starts from Birth, It ends with Death. Earth gets stimulates by the effect of SURYA, whereas by the effects of MOON, it gets cools down. RAHU shadows EARTH, and KETU shadows MOON. The Drastic exposure from both, RAHU & KETU, brings-in the Death of a HUMAN. Therefore, Pandits say that HUMANS need the sympathy from RAHU & KETU, throughout their life to ward-off unfavorable circumstances.
According to particular Chapter of the ASROLOGY, "ASHTAMI" lessens the ill effects of Health Hazards. SUN & MOON are at 90 Degrees angle with the EARTH on "ASHTAMI".
When MOON is in the First Half of the Month(Full Moon Period) Skin affections and Mental derailment cases get aggravated. Similarly it is proved that the effects of MOON are cast on the MENSTRUAL CYCLE of WOMAN. It is also known fact that GURU has special effects on the HUMAN, and brightens the prospects. NAVAGRAHAS (Nine Planets) & DWADASA RASIS (12 RASIS) have their individual effects on HUMAN SYSTEM, Good and Bad. These control the VAAT, PITTA & KAPHA, Tri Doshas. Even STARS focus effects, which speak Good-Health & Bad-Health.
For example, GURU & MOON if Ruling a Person, he is subjected to Cold & Respiratory Troubles (KAPHA). SURYA & KUJA aggravates PITTA, resulting in Skin eruptions. SHANI, RAHU and KETU aggravate VAAT. Such persons suffer from usually OBESITY, RHEUMATISM, ARTHRITIS. If the RASI is also unfavorable, then the person suffers too much, in the ORGANS.
Ciphering off this subject at this juncture, we would like to give the following guidance:
These 12 RASIS have their effects on different parts of the HUMAN BODY.
MESH : Head, Face & Brain VRISHABH : Neck, Throat MITHUN : Shoulders, Hands, Muscles, Blood & Flesh KARKATAKA : Chest, Stomach SIMHA : Back-Bone, Back-side, Waist, Heart KANYA : Liver TULA : Skin VRISCHIKA : Sexual Organs, Buttocks DHANUS : Pulse, Nervous System MAKAR : Knees & Elbows KUMBH : Feet, Digestive System MEEN : Under-feet
These NAVGRAHAS (9 Grahas) focus on following parts of the HUMAN BODY.
SURYA : Heart, Blood, Brain, Left Eye of a Lady, Man's Right Eye. CHANDRA : Left Eye of a Man, Right Eye of a Lady and her Breasts. KUJA : Nose, Fore-Head, Digestive System. BUDHA : Nervous System, Pulse, Muscles, Tongue, Shoulders, Face, Hair. GURU : Right Ear, Liver. SUKRA : Complexion, Left Ear. SHANI : Bone System, Dental System, Knees. RAHU : Mental Weakness, Depression. KETU : Skin affections.
Now, let us come back to the GREAT 5 ELEMENTS (Panch Maha Bhutas). Our Body is made up of these 5 Great Elements, primarily. There is a fastening-tie between these 5 GREAT ELEMENTS & The PLANETS. Their association is rigid. Let us see, how these are tied together so fast, and how they turn useful to the MANKIND.
AKAASH GURU Enlightens Sound, Hearing, Speech. VAYU SHANI Sense(Touch), Skin, Hands are stimulated.. AGNI KUJA Shape (Complexion), Eyes, Legs are smartened. JAL SUKRA Nav Rasis, Tongue, Sexual Organ. EARTH BUDHA Nose, PANCH KOSAS (Mood, Knowledge, Mind, Life & Food)
MOOD is related with AKAASH.
KNOWLEDGE is entangle with VAYU.
MIND is integrated with AGNI.
LIFE is associated with JAL.
FOOD is involved with EARTH
Medical Treatise itself is a Complicated and Integrated one, interlocked with other Branches of VAST SCIENCE and its effects. Influence of GRAHAS or PLANETS is there on Person's Health, Life & Death. But as long as people observe Principles of NATURE which is GREAT CREATION of that "GREAT POWER", which is unseen, it is said by all PHILOSOPHERS and PREACHERS, also SEERS, that nothing can disturb HUMAN LIFE. Every Disease has a REMEDY. So also, Every Error committed by us has an ANTI-DOTE, as a safety measure, and it is for us to find out, Where, Which & What…
It is FAITH & BELIEF that treats a Person, and MEDICATION is only a VEHICLE in the Process. So anything can be a MEDICINE, even a Glass of WATER, Ash or Vibhuti, aLeaf or a Flower.
AYURVEDA is enormous. Only we have to SEARCH for this knowledge and put in to practice, more than RESEARCHES in the Laboratories. Everything is well documented in the ANCIENT TEXTS and SCRIPTURES in SANSKRIT. To know SANSKRIT, one should be of that SANSKRITI (CULTURE), first.
The HERBS and HERBAL DRUGS are also composed of same Microscopic forms of the very 5 ELEMENTS (Basic components), and are therefore more acceptable to HUMAN BEINGS to Repair the system, to give Permanent Relief from the Ailments, and Restore to Normal sound Health, than any other STRANGE COMPOUNDS or COMPONENTS like SYNTHETIC DRUGS.
Everyone has a moral responsibility toward the Society, Country and Countrymen and this is to be discharged fully, as per the knowledge and capacity at the disposal of an individual.
Towards this, TRIO HEALTHCARE PVT. LTD., AHMEDABAD, and the Directors of this INSTITUTION, though they are all Qualified lot from the Modern School of Pharmaceutical science, all B.Pharma., also possessing Allopathic Manufacturing Unit since 1984, and in the Pharma Business since 1981, have developed also an infinite AYURVEDIC SCHOOL OF THOUGHTS, and started manufacturing AYURVEDIC PATENT MEDICINES, in the year 1991, with the help of highly qualified AYURVEDIC PHARMACISTS & PHYSICIANS of repute, with a view to contribute their mite towards "HEALTH CARE" of the people, "THROUGH NATURE," as inspired by all around them.
Today, there are many in the field of MEDICINE & SCIENCE, though they are highly qualified in Modern Medicine, and well experienced in their TREATISE, after a deep study into AYURVEDiC PHILOSOPHY, have turned as PATRONS of AYURVEDIC SCIENCE and as ADVOCATES, to practice and Preach its benefits to the Masses in our Country and Abroad, and project their views vehemently, and convince the antagonists to a great extent.

Problems with delivery
Here at Internal Doors we make every effort to ensure that your goods are delivered to you quickly and in pristine condition. Despite this, some issues are simply unavoidable. In the event of a problem, please read the following information to ensure that it is quickly resolved.
Kerbside Delivery
For insurance reasons, we are unable to guarantee that delivery will be made directly to your door or inside your property. This is very much at the discretion of your delivery driver. Therefore it is the customer's responsibility to ensure that they are able to receive the goods from the courier upon delivery to the kerbside.
Many of our orders are delivered on a pallet. It is the driver's discretion whether they take the pallet away with them following delivery. We are unable to collect any pallets after delivery has taken place. We highly recommend the doors should be taken off the pallet and stored laying flat raised off the floor.
Oiling Service
If you have requested we pre finish your doors, please allow up to an additional four weeks for delivery. This will depend on the number of in-house oiling requests and also the chosen finish which will affect the number of coats and required drying time.
AM or PM delivery
You will be given an estimated AM or PM time of delivery upon placing your order, if you would like to alternate this, please let us know at least 3 days prior to your delivery date and we will contact the courier company to change the time period for you.
Hours of Delivery
The majority of our couriers operate weekdays only. Because we use a variety of different courier companies we cannot generalise the hours of delivery. Once you have been assigned a courier at the checkout stage, you can check the individual couriers hours of operation above.
Will the driver call me to let me know when they are going to deliver?
In most cases yes, but again this is dependant on which courier company you are assigned at the checkout stage. For large items like doors and skirting, you will always be given an estimated delivery time, so even if you are not contacted by phone beforehand, you should have been notified by email. Small items such as hinges and handles are sent via UPS or Royal Mail, you will not be contacted by the delivery driver before delivery. If the doors are delivered on a pallet, will the driver take the pallet or leave it with me? In most cases the driver will take the pallet away with them. However TNT have indicated they generally leave the pallet with the customer.
What happens if I'm not at home at the time of delivery?
This should not happen, you will have been made aware of the time/date of delivery by phone or email. If it a large item such as a door or skirting and you do not give us at least 3 days notice prior to delivery that you will not be home on the agreed date/time - we will rearrange delivery for you but this may incur a redelivery charge. Therefore it is the customer's responsibility to ensure that they are able to receive the goods from the courier upon delivery to the kerbside. Before confirming your order, please ensure all contact details are correct. Any redelivery costs incurred as a result of incorrect contact details must be paid by the customer and not Internal Doors.
Will it be brought inside my house?
This is not standard and the driver is not required to do so because of insurance/injury reasons whilst inside your property. SO please be very clear that if you request him to do so and he/she is willing to help and have time to do so, should there be any damage to your property or anything of this nature - then remember it is not standard as part of the service and we have pre informed you of this, so there can not be cause for complaint after the event.

We would have to think back a very long way to come up with a month that Microgaming did not release at least one new slot game, and the chances always are that players will have multiple new titles to look forward to. That was definitely the case in May, and now that the dust has settled, we are going to take a look at what we think our readers should be playing out of the new releases right now.
Before we get down to the details, we will not a comment from David Reynolds at Microgaming, who said: "We're delivering a whole host of games for May, each bringing a different theme and feature set. Candy Dreams lends on the popularity of candy-themed games in mobile and social gaming, so we expect this to do particularly well on the mobile platform. Guaranteed wilds in the epic Forbidden Throne will ensure players are entertained throughout, while mystery symbols in Fortune Girl and their ability to reveal scatters, we believe will become a player-favourite. Goldwyn's Fairies is a beautifully designed game comprising three different wild symbols, with gripping base game and free spin features that will enchant players."
Candy Dreams
The most important of the four new releases, in our opinion, was Candy Dreams, and it caught the eye immediately, primarily due to the fact that this is one slot game that would not look out of place among the IGT Multiway Xtra selection. The same board state is in effect, along with an identical 720 ways to win betting system, and while the coloured candy treats are not likely to ever be the best-looking games that you will have ever seen, they can all come together to make for some highly valuable returns. There are two bonus features too, including the Candy Planet bonus where players can pick candies and win cash until they find the symbol that ends the round, and also a free games bonus consisting of twelve free spins, where special wild cards can ensure that wild action keeps on coming throughout for some truly stunning returns.
Forbidden Throne
Forbidden Throne is a big game in a slightly different way, as it sees Microgaming opting for conventional win lines rather than an all-pays setup, but this time players have forty fixed ones to make use of. The fantasy theme is in full effect here on this game, with Wulthor the Elven Lord of Fire and Sorconass the Queen of Ice being two of the main characters – although with Microgaming being the name behind the official online and mobile Game of Thrones slots, we would assume that they know a thing or two about delivering this kind of action.
There is a stacked wild card on every spin and it is of course possible to cover additional reels with wild cards too, even going as far as covering the whole board in its entirety. Doing so awards 500 times the line bet forty times over and even if you do not manage to land the full combination, there are still plenty of opportunities to win big with up to thirty free spins on offer through landing scatters – and they all continue to make use of a completely wild reel.
Fortune Girl
Conversely, Fortune Girl is the smallest of the new releases from last month, with just fifteen win lines in effect. It uses an Oriental theme, which Microgaming's design team is no stranger to, but it does change things up somewhat through the fact that players can enjoy a manga style rather than the traditionally subtle artwork that is often prevalent on games like this one. Mystery symbols are the highlight within the base game, as they will all transform into matching symbols after landing, potentially leading to some massive combinations, and the biggest wins are reserved, as always, for the free spins round. There, players can work their way through fourteen free games and also work with a multiplier that can reach up to five times the standard prize value.
Goldwyn's Fairies
Finally, we come to Goldwyn's Fairies, featuring twenty lines and a whole host of magical features. The title character, Goldwyn, can appear on the third reel and when she does so, she will cast a spell on her board position and start the respins. As long as she keeps popping up, the respins will continue, and every magical symbol position will be wild. Naturally, she can appear on any reel while the respins are playing out, so it is a great way of putting together a chain of spins – although not quite as good as the free spins round, where ten spins are awarded for landing a scatter on reels one, three and five. She can continue to enchant symbols during the round, and all of her created wilds will return on the tenth and final spin for one last boost to your bankroll!
Interestingly enough, Goldwyn's Fairies is actually the first ever slot release from Just For The Win, although it is delivered to casinos through Microgaming's platform and so is available to play on mobile devices at all of the casinos that offer their titles, including Casumo, Leo Vegas and many more.

Borderlands is a initially individual shooter with a twist, the game has a lot of features that you would most most likely see in an rpg (function-playing game). As I have already talked about , the game is doable to hack and due to this being a Strategies & Tricks segment, you would almost certainly count on me to clarify how to hack the game, but I will not as this will purely lead to you becoming dissatisfied with the game. Later that evening on GameSpot's On the Spot net show, GameSpot VP John Davison appeared on camera with Gerstmann, marking Gerstmann's initially look on the GameSpot web internet site considering that November 2007.
Due to the fact that game has been developed for the Xbox 360, Playstation three and Pc suggests that it can be hacked really easily. Gamespot is the second most visited video game video web page with an estimated 16 million month-to-month exceptional visitors. GameSpot is a video gaming internet site that supplies news, critiques, previews, downloads, and other details on certain video games.
Producer Drew McCoy explained in an interview that the PS4 Pro version of Titanfall 2 will not run in native 4K. Even so, the console's extra energy really should assist the game stick closer to its 60FPS target. Assuming the VR market place is $15 billion by 2019 and that GameStop holds 20 %, it would produce $three billion in sales. Some currently-released games will feature PS4 Pro support by means of updates, while other folks will come with enhancements out of the box. The GameStop Investor Day briefings are happening all through the afternoon verify back later nowadays for more.
The game immerses players in a rich and beautiful tropical island globe full of intriguing characters to meet, locations to explore, wildlife to hunt and explosive fights to survive. The weapon has unusual traits such as the fact that instead of an in-game weapons manufacturer (e.g. Dahl, jakobs etc.), it is created by Gearbox (the game developers).
But that does not mean the game is not playable, in fact this game is a single of the most brilliant ideas ever believed up of in a long time. Rise of the Tomb Raider developer Crystal Dynamics has released a video showcasing some of the improvements to the game enabled for PlayStation four Pro The video characteristics chief technologies officer Gary Snethen discussing the alterations, but to see them in action you'll have to have to be on a 4K display with the YouTube show settings at 2160p.

Beetle Quotes (9 quotes)
Lepidoptera are for children to play with, pretty to look at, so some think. Give me the Coleoptera, and the kings of the Coleoptera are the beetles! Lepidoptera and Neuroptera for little folks; Coleoptera for men, sir!
After the planet becomes theirs, many millions of years will have to pass before a beetle particularly loved by God, at the end of its calculations will find written on a sheet of paper in letters of fire that energy is equal to the mass multiplied by the square of the velocity of light. The new kings of the world will live tranquilly for a long time, confining themselves to devouring each other and being parasites among each other on a cottage industry scale.
All that biology tells us about the nature of God is that he has An inordinate fondness for beetles.
Every complete set of chromosomes contains the full code; so there are, as a rule, two copies of the latter in the fertilized egg cell, which forms the earliest stage of the future individual. In calling the structure of the chromosome fibres a code-script we mean that the all-penetrating mind, once conceived by Laplace, to which every causal connection lay immediately open, could tell from their structure whether the egg would develop, under suitable conditions, into a black cock or into a speckled hen, into a fly or a maize plant, a rhododendron, a beetle, a mouse or a woman. To which we may add, that the appearances of the egg cells are very often remarkably similar; and even when they are not, as in the case of the comparatively gigantic eggs of birds and reptiles, the difference is not so much in the relevant structures as in the nutritive material which in these cases is added for obvious reasons.
But the term code-script is, of course, too narrow. The chromosome structures are at the same time instrumental in bringing about the development they foreshadow. They are law-code and executive power?or, to use another simile, they are architect's plan and builders craft-in one.

Haldane was engaged in discussion with an eminent theologian. What inference, asked the latter, might one draw about the nature of God from a study of his works? Haldane replied: An inordinate fondness for beetles.
I can remember starting to gather all sorts of things like rocks and beetles when I was about nine years old. There was no parental encouragementnor discouragement eithernor any outside influence that I can remember in these early stages. By about the age of twelve, I had settled pretty definitely on butterflies, largely I think because the rocks around my home were limited to limestone, while the butterflies were varied, exciting, and fairly easy to preserve with household moth-balls. I was fourteen, I remember, when I decided to be scientific, caught in some net of emulation, and resolutely threw away all of my childish specimens, mounted haphazard on common pins and without proper labels. The purge cost me a great inward struggle, still one of my most vivid memories, and must have been forced by a conflict between a love of my specimens and a love for orderliness, for having everything just exactly right according to what happened to be my current standards.
In a purely technical sense, each species of higher organismbeetle, moss, and so forth, is richer in information than a Caravaggio painting, Mozart symphony, or any other great work of art. Consider the typical case of the house mouse, Mus musculus. Each of its cells contains four strings of DNA, each of which comprises about a billion nucleotide pairs organized into a hundred thousand structural nucleotide pairs, organized into a hundred thousand structural genes. The full information therein, if translated into ordinary-sized printed letters, would just about fill all 15 editions of the Encyclopaedia Britannica published since 1768.
It may be argued that to know one kind of beetle is to know them all. But a species is not like a molecule in a cloud of moleculesit is a unique population.
My father, the practicing physician, was a passionate collector of natural objects (amber, shells, minerals, beetles, etc.) and a great friend of the natural sciences. To my energetic and intellectually vigorous mother I owe an infinite debt.

A recent Boston Herald article claimed Yelp is a bully. In this article, the CEO of Phantom Gourmet and the President of the Restaurant and Business Alliance in Massachusetts compared Yelp to a high school football star who sets up a website that trashes all the students, but the students aren't allowed to respond or remove offending comments. The primary claim is that such a website would be shut down for bullying, but that Yelp does exactly the same thing and is growing with no chance of being shut down.
So, is Yelp a bully? There have been many stories over the past year about businesses who feel they are being coerced by Yelp to purchase advertising in an attempt to "fix" bad reviews. But there has not been any reports showing the results of advertising on Yelp as it relates to negative reviews. If you have done a study of this, we would love to hear your results.
The fact of the matter is that when two sides have an argument and one side gets to do most or all the talking, it's a fairly one-sided conversation. That's the big issue with Yelp – the consumer does nearly all the talking. The consumer gets to give a rating and enter a comment but Yelp does not give the business the ability to respond to the rating. The business can reply to the comment, but has no control how or where that comment shows up on their page. And as we've all read, Yelp auto-filters reviews so they can try to ensure that only "true" reviews are showing up. The business has very little control over how information is displayed on their page – it's not even configurable in many cases. In the best case scenario, top businesses will respond to negative reviews in the hopes that potential customers will see that they do truly care about what their customers say about them.
I don't think this makes Yelp a bully, but it certainly does skew any argument of clarity strongly to one side, namely the consumer. Yelp gives consumers a lot of the control, and say, in the discussion, and businesses are second-class citizens. At Bizyhood, we believe that all businesses should be given the opportunity to respond to any review and let consumers review an interaction between a business and its customers, rather than just giving the customer the first and last word.

We Are More Than Conquerors
Celebrating the Persecuted Church
November 1, 2015
Jake Vermillion
"Yes, the Church will be persecuted, but it will never be defeated, for it has been purchased with the blood of Christ" — ICOM Presenter from Pakistan
Today, we have the awesome pleasure of being able to celebrate the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (IDOP)—a day to intercede on behalf of our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ—in a country where we, as Christians, have no reason to fear repression for practicing our faith.
Across the world, Christian persecution affects more believers today than it ever has in the 2,000-year history of the global church. From North Korea to the "North Korea of Africa," Eritrea, Christians are being arrested, tortured, forcibly converted, and killed by a mix of state and non-state actors who—at the end of the day—are little more than witnesses to the power and glory of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Today, you are going to see posts and news articles painting a terrifying picture of the state of persecution throughout the world. You're going to hear sermons and receive emails detailing the Islamic State's anti-Christian rampage across the Middle East and North Africa. You're going to see preeminent Christian leaders warn you to prepare for persecution here in America. And, in response to all of this, you're going to be asked to donate to support the persecuted church through this organization or that.
Sadly, today has become a day for mobilization. A day for fundraising. A day to promote fear in the pews of America's churches.
Which is why we want to—need to—share an amazing word that a pastor from Pakistan shared at the closing session of the 2015 International Conference on Missions (ICOM), right here in our home town of Richmond, VA.
In the face of a worsening situation for Pakistani Christians—where Blasphemy laws have seen to the unwarranted arrest, beating, and, in some cases, unpunished murder of thousands of believers in one of the world's most fervently Muslim countries—this Pastor had one message to share: the church will surely suffer, but it will never be defeated.
It's a simple message, but it's the message that needs to be communicated on this IDOP Sunday morning. Rather than promulgating a message of fear and hate, as regrettably so many others will, we are only interested in advocating a message of hope, a word of encouragement, and a story of victory.
And so, to do just that, we want to share the passage of Scripture this Pastor drew from in asking ICOM attendees to chant: "We are more than conquerors!"
Romans 8:18-39 (NIV)
18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.
22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit,groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God's people in accordance with the will of God.
28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. 29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written:
"For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
It's our hope that you would share this passage this morning rather than sharing the articles, emails and sermons pushing American Christians to fear by focusing more on the evil acts of ISIS than on the sacrifice our brothers and sisters voluntarily make in service of the one true King.
It's our hope that you would join us in praying for the persecuted among us, and that in doing so, you would encourage them in their boldness, rather than pray against their suffering.
The scriptures tell us openly that as Christ suffered, so too shall we; but the scriptures tell us that Christ himself said the miracles He performed while on this earth would pale in comparison to what the Holy Spirit would do in and through us after His ascension to the right hand.
It may sound silly. but we're going to ask that you verbally—that means out loud—chant, with your family, spouse, friends or colleagues, "We are more than conquerors!" this morning. After doing do, thank the Lord for being so good—so gracious—as to empower us to overcome the enemy, to advance His Kingdom, and to suffer persecution for His glory.
It's a gift to suffer for the name of Christ.
Celebrate the gift so many of us have received today! And be sure to pass along the celebration to those around you.
Ecclesiastes 3 (NIV)
There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
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 them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
9 What do workers gain from their toil? 10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13 That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. 14 I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him.
15 Whatever is has already been,
and what will be has been before;
and God will call the past to account.
16 And I saw something else under the sun:
In the place of judgment—wickedness was there,
in the place of justice—wickedness was there.
17 I said to myself,
"God will bring into judgment
both the righteous and the wicked,
for there will be a time for every activity,
a time to judge every deed."
18 I also said to myself, "As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. 19 Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. 20 All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. 21 Who knows if the human spirit rises upwardand if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?"
22 So I saw that there is nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work, because that is their lot. For who can bring them to see what will happen after them?

If a person is starved, they'll be hungry. And to continue to eat, waste, and spill in a hungry man's face and expect him not to seek food with ferocity is to suggest he cower in a corner and die off quietly. Well…this generation is not good with quiet. Fact is, a lot of us don't do death well either so EXPECT a struggle for power. And EXPECT art that reflects that struggle. "Red Cups and Late Nights" is a good title that at first eases the minds of those that would reduce our existence to a clan of shallow burnouts. But to those listening, it's a perfect platform on which to be honest about the shrouded struggle our blatant coping mechanisms fuel. We have been cheated and we are angry. We are angry and we are ACTING. And Epic the Future makes excellent use of the truth serum soapbox.
The first song on Epic's album is "Red Cup Shit". It expresses the need to break away that's felt generationally amongst anyone who see's a better life–either outwardly or inwardly–and becomes motivated by that vision. Contrary to criticism, this feeling has nothing to do with trying to deny where we come from. Where we're from is undeniable. It's part of our make-up, our words can do NOTHING to confirm or deny our point of origin. So strike this from your list of complaints and begin to accept that those with wings will fly.
"Fuck being homesick, I'm sick of being home. Got a grinder and a Swisher, 'bout to break down and zone." –Red Cups Shit
In "Zoning" Epic is boastful while recognizing he hasn't reached his full potential. Bragging when you're doing well isn't a problem for me. If Beyonce and Kanye have taught us anything, it's that a little well-justified ego looks GOOD on a person. It's being so hung-up on the look that you become a shit-talk artist rather than accomplishing anything that's a bother. This song hints at the difference between a working artist and a dreaming one. It gives anthem to the slight cockiness a hard worker has a right to feel.
"I listen to the sermons and I hear what they sayin', but to me, church is just another form of gang bangin'" –I Need A Prayer
"I Need A Prayer" touches on one of the most beautiful realizations in human existence: you choose who you are, your purpose in life, and how you relate to the world around you. The song expresses the conflict between upbringing and the path chosen, and it illustrates the importance of this discovery. Someone who is not raised Christian can maintain a very Christian standard of living…loving their neighbors, honoring their parents, refusing to lie, cheat, or steal…does it matter if they don't use Christian jargon? Does it matter that they never refer to themselves as a Christian? Again, Epic uses words to point out that the words don't matter. Our actions do.
Love Changes by Epic the Future ft. Jhene Aiko
I could go into more detail about RCLN–about its layers and ambiguities–but the only thing that really tells you what you need to know about a piece of music is listening to it. There are bad bitches with big titties. There are two chains and first class flights. There are Swishers and purpose and art, craft and skill on this record. The reason our nights are late and littered with red cups is not idiocy or apathy. It's a natural balance to the thankless hours we spend fighting the good fight: the fight with mental slavery, stagnancy, and conformity, and if Epic is the Future, it may not be so bleak.
"I keep doing shit to get they mind stuck. We aim high, at the top is where you find us." –'98

How to avoid power blackouts—throw the switch off!
The national IQ test!
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) have announced that consumers will be paid to cut their power usage. It's part of a plan to free up temporary supply during unplanned outages and extreme weather conditions — such as prolonged summer heatwaves.
Governments' dereliction to duty has come down to this: sweat to death this summer in a hot room and we'll give you a movie voucher (to an ancient Ronald Regan B-Grade movie in black and white.) and a small box of popcorn. Why would any sane person reward any government or opposition with their vote —fair dinkum?
Source: ABC
Power bills: Would you switch off your aircon for a movie voucher?
So how will this impact you, and could you actually get a free day of electricity if you switch off your pool pump?
Here's what's been announced
ARENA will fund 10 pilot projects to manage Australia's electricity supply during extreme peaks.
These "pilot projects" will be trialled in three states — Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales — over three years.
Who is involved in the scheme?
How to save on your power bill
Power bills are expensive. Really expensive. So here are some tried and tested methods to help you save.
The funding recipients vary across NSW, Victoria and South Australia, but EnergyAustralia has been granted funding in all three states.
AGL, EnerNOC and Progressive Green, Flow Power have been awarded funding in NSW, while Zen Ecosystems and Intercast and Forge will receive funding in South Australia.
In Victoria, funding has been granted to United Energy Distribution Pty Ltd, EnerNOC, Zen Ecosystems and Powershop Australia.
Will I really be paid to cut my power usage?
Yes. The demand management program will involve paying an incentive for energy users to:
• Reduce their power consumption,
• Switch to backup generation, or
• Dispatch their energy storage for short periods when electricity reserves reach critically low levels.
But it's only voluntary so you'll have to register your interest if you want to be a part of the program.
Energy and Environment Minister Josh Frydenberg said this could translate to a household being paid $25 each time it switched off power at a peak demand time.
If that happened 10 times in a year (the most amount of days the program is expected to be used) they'd be $250 richer.
That's on top of the savings on their power bills, as well as the reductions in carbon emissions.
What other incentives could I get?
Powershop Australia says it will be offering its customers a discount on their bill, while Energy Australia says incentives could include credits on energy bills, movie tickets and gift vouchers.
"Ultimately it has to be an arrangement that provides value for the customer so they want to participate," a spokesperson for Energy Australia said.
The incentives depend on the various electricity companies participating in the trial.
Victorian power company Powershop Australia will text customers who have registered their interest in the program asking them to reduce their usage at a certain time.
However, it will be up to different companies to alert customers when they should turn off their power.
According to Origin Energy, periods of peak demand tend to occur when "temperatures hit extremes, industry is operating, and millions of households are using fans and air-conditioners all at the same time".
While times vary between each state, AEMO data shows peak periods seem to occur in the early morning from 6:00am onwards and later in the afternoon from 4:00pm.
How long will I have to switch off for?
The time could vary between one to four hours, or even a couple of minutes, as the Prime Minister indicated this morning.
"It might only be for five minutes at a particular time," Malcolm Turnbull said.
And we're only talking about a handful of days each year.
"The agencies say it will be for no more than 10 times a year," said an article about the trial on the Australian Renewable Energy Agency's website.
When will this be rolled out?
AEMO managing director and chief executive officer Audrey Zibelman said consumers can expect the projects to be up and running by December 2017.
That will follow a round of testing by AEMO in November.
Will consumers really do this?
Tens of thousands of households across the three states are expected to voluntarily sign up.
How will this help ease the strain on the grid?
Mr Frydenberg says it could be enough to save enough power to support more than 100,000 homes — or as much as is generated by a small power station.
Ms Zibelman says the move will address "a lot of wasted energy where you are using too much and you don't need it".
"We would say, 'boy, if you would just cycle your pool pump, we get everyone to cycle at the same time', and nobody really knows what's going on but suddenly what happens is we can avoid building a generating plant and there is no discomfort so it is actually using technology to be smarter about energy," she said.
Where has this program been used?
A similar program called PeakSmart already operates in Queensland.
It offers financial incentives for people who agree to limit air-conditioners to 26 degrees Celsius and have pool pumps turned off during peak demand.
Its also being used in nations including the United States and New Zealand to avoid unplanned or involuntary outages.
Ms Zibelman pointed out the example of Texas, which saved $600 million over a weekend with the scheme.

The rise in conditions as a result linked with global warming is causing havoc not only from the environment but in relation to us as well. Experts tend to get cranky when the temperature releases up or on the main opposite we get bad and refuse to cause our chores because including the unbearable heat.

Mylee Yc is a 29 year old Veteran in the Army, a single mother and survivor of Breast Cancer who is currently still serving while undergoing the final stages of her treatment.
Upon meeting Mylee, one might be surprised to learn that she's a former Drill Instructor in the United States Army. Judging by her grace and the immediate sense of comfort she exudes to those around her, it would be hard to imagine just how strong she is or how much she's had to endure for her country, her family and ultimately for herself.
Positive outcome from a negative situation
Given the opportunity to face her mortality with humility and accept her own vulnerability, Yc shares with us her experience fighting her diagnoses and eventually embracing a new perspective as she transitions from "Super Mom", to "Happy Mom" and into a life less burdened.
Yesterday I did, Today I can and Tomorrow I Will
To be human is to be imperfect and to be vulnerable is to be strong.
Have that moment, feel that pain and realize what you're up against. Today is what we're all about. You CHOOSE to fight.
When we're faced with the promise of achievement, sometimes we get lost in the possibility of our own greatness until we're faced with our single shared truth, that we all have to die someday. Mylee is an example of a powerful woman who sought the highest ranks and found balance in her own fragility and peace in being reminded that we all fall sometimes, but together we stay in the fight. With the voice of and sentiment of a caring mother, the heart of a gentle friend and the strength of a hundred men, she faces her own fears head on and continues to make up her own mind about how she's going to continue to live.
Mylee Yc is currently still serving in the Army and planning to transition into civilian life where she plans to work with other fighters and inspire those still fighting for their lives. For more information and to contact Mylee, please go to: https://www.facebook.com/bperfectlyflawed
