PoliTricks: 5 Tweaks That Should Be Included in Indian Political Discourse
Ah! Indian Politics...The Sweet Mother of all debates in this country… People just love to ramble on about the endless controversies that come with the term itself. From "Nukkad ki chai" to the "rich ambience of intellectual interests", politics in India has always been a sizzling topic for tittle-tattles.
However, these gossips aren't a complete prattle. You see, India is (so called!) the largest democratic country in the world (Over-Population helps sometimes, I guess!!…). Still, if you have lived in India for nearly as much time as it takes to know a country to its core, you will agree that the term "Politics" has more-or-less become synonymous to delinquency. It's hard to say what exactly led us to this undesired thoroughfare; moreover, reasons are not of as much importance as the consequences at this point.
Politics was never supposed to be abhorred; instead it was a beautiful concept to implement the idea of good governance, and I think that there's still some hope at the end of this tunnel.
As Margaret Thatcher used to say, "I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph."
Holding on to this positive side of statecraft, I am suggesting these 5 changes that could possibly be proven a stepping stone in the process of significant refinement.
Redefining Political-Accreditation:
The thing that bothers me the most in Indian politics is the criterion of eligibility for electoral contests, or rather the lack of it. There's no absolute qualification needed in order to participate in assembly elections aside from the age and residential constraints.As Henry Cate puts it, "The problem with political jokes is that they get elected."
Ironically, in the same country, you have to take THE most sophisticated examination, if you want to work under these under qualified, yet elected governments.
Maybe, it's time to reflect on the value of political elements and re-define the eligibility criteria for running the biggest democracy of the world.
Concept of Negative Voting:
Now, what happens if even a highly-qualified person fails to deliver his/her job after being elected? Well, in current scenario, we usually start cursing the entire system and eventually make our peace with the common conclusion that every politician is alike. But, it's not an ideal way to deal with this.
Election Commission of India should contemplate the idea of negative voting, instead. Wherein, if an elected government or any of its member behaves inappropriately or if local citizens of respective constituency vote against them in more numbers than they did before in their support, they should be abdicated from their posts and a re-election should be conducted in that constituency.
Classroom-Discipline in Assemblies:
If you have ever seen political debates going on inside the parliament, you can easily relate to my point here. It's more like watching a fish argue with an eagle on how to run a Marathon. There's no credibility in such debates and they often end-up without any significant outcome. The role of in-house speakers also becomes questionable during these inconsequential ruckuses.
Indian Legislative Bodies represent the culture of the country. How can you expect common people to live in harmony, when our representatives seem to fail in making a consensus?Justice dies every time the discourse of political debates changes from "what" to "who" and objections are made only because the proposal (no matter how brilliant) was drafted by the opposite party.
Our Political System needs to establish some common principles for participating in a parliamentary debate; so that the profundity of discussion can be maintained (They are more than welcome to visit our academic institutions for that matter, hopefully they will learn some discipline from the 10 year olds attending their Mathematics classes).
Credibility of Political Parties:
On the one hand, our Government claims to fight against corruption and black-money, but on the other hand, it seems to be reluctant to bring the political parties under RTI. Everything from political fund to the process of selection of a candidate for election is under the hood and there's no possibility for probing into the matter.
Transparency is one of the foundations of democracy, without which you can't even dream of a populist system of governance. It is expected from a republic country like India, to insure the integrity of its political parties, especially when we are having as many as 1841 of them (7 National, 49 State, and 1785 unrecognized; according to the latest reports of ECI).
Proper Interfaces Between Government and Citizens:
As George Bernard Shaw once said, "The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place." Government often thinks that making policies, implementing them correctly and finally advertising them is enough to make positive changes; whereas, common people expect the Government to understand all their problems without saying them aloud. None of them is concerned about establishing effective communication channels through which they can actually talk with one another.
We need to create standard social infrastructures throughout the nation in order to maintain the bi-directional communication between the two ends of Indian Politics – "the voter" and "the voted". It can be in the form of small gatherings of people along with their elected representatives or an occasional two-way radio/television program to discuss various agendas of the government.
It's a common practice in India to say that politics is not for good men/women. People in our country preferably shun the very idea of being involved in politics (by the way, voting is only a part of politics, not the politics itself!). But, we can't deny its significance in our lives. We are all affected by the decisions made by our elected Governments, thus it's our responsibility towards ourselves to make sure that we are being governed by the right people.
As Plato puts it, "One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics, is that you end up being governed by your inferiors."

25 white comic book characters race swapped in movies and TV
Looking back at comic books from DC and Marvel Comics' formative years in the 60s and 70s, the lack of diversity is startling. Aliens were more common to see headlining comics than blacks, Latinos, Asians, etc.
Hollywood has been a lot more conscious of having a more diverse cinematic universe reflective of all comic book fans. Those progressive moves have met with some amount of backlash from the more small-brain community online who cry the 'radical' changes are simply to be more PC and decry the 'blackwashing' of comic characters. Yeah, I couldn't believe it's a thing either.
Those folks won't ever get it, but Michelle Rodriguez also missed the point when she spoke about minorities 'stealing' comic book roles.
- Movie Reviews
- 4 WWE stars who could be the next face that runs the place
- Does this Infinity War theory explain Captain Marvel's absence?
- This is the lesson should Hollywood get from Girl Trips success
Sure, new minority characters would be great, but they're not gonna headline their own movie anytime soon and in no instance has a minority playing a comic book character drastically ruined the core elements of the character. That's actually far more common with 'traditional casting.'
Alright enough set-up, let's go to the list!

Nothing in recent history signifies a more abject failure of American, and by extension, Western foreign policy and military might than the pairing of the words 'Iraq and Afghanistan'. Their utterance is enough to open a sore wound in those who were determinedly in support. Those who acted in vengeance or for Machiavellian reasons surely regret gambling away their legacy so dramatically. Tony Blair could not have imagined that despite bringing Labour from the shadows of opposition and securing three successive and emphatic election victories, his legacy would not just be tainted, but singularly defined by the false premise of the Iraq war. It is difficult to know how Bush Jnr. reflects upon his decisions, albeit to say his scarcity from the public eye may be a clue.
The verdict on those decisions becomes more damning when assessing the repercussions. Afghanistan remains divided between civilian Government and Taliban control. Well over a decade of attrition has not fazed the group and a lessoning of international forces has meant an ascendant Taliban and greater interference from regional vested interests. Farcically, those positioned to lead a civilian democratic Government were corrupt warlords and drug barons. The fallout of intervention and invasion in Iraq are far more visible and severe. A destabilised, fragmented and sectarian state with a debilitated economy and infrastructure. In the immediate aftermath of the invasion; with security, stability and armed opposition in the hands of shaved hair dating Sunni and see Shia militias, the seeds for ISI (Islamic State in Iraq) to later become ISIL were firmly sown.
This simplified overview is perceived by many today as the consequence of illegal, illegitimate and knee-jerk war, for which we have paid and continue to pay a heavy price. Those on the left, see it as wars based on lies aimed at political expediency. Analysts state the obvious, that not enough planning or post-conflict scenario mapping was done. The sentiment amongst many Muslims globally, including those in the west, has been that these were wars waged against Muslims (given the number of civilian deaths) through the occupation of 'Muslim lands'.
Ironically this was the premise and http://syaden.net/?giniefr=rencontre-celibataire-vacances&ef5=e2 raison d'etre of Al-Qaeda and 9/11. It was not an attempt to invade or dominate the US, but to compel it, as they saw, to lessen US influence and presence in the Muslim world. So what started as retaliation and self-defence for the mass slaughter of civilians on 9/11 gradually turned into a perceived attack on a global religious community, thus perpetuating the myth that Al Qaeda based their movement on Opcje binarne a war on Islam. This perception fuelled the growth in size and appeal of militant extremist groups in the Middle East, not just Al Qaeda but also those such as ISI. Since then we have witnessed scores of terrorist attacks in western and eastern population centres (London, Madrid and Bali to name a few) – tentative evidence that terrorism and its appeal were on the rise.
However, beyond the focus on ISIL as the legacy of Afghanistan and Iraq, there was an ostensible yet little spoken of upshot. It has set a negative precedent for conventional military campaigns, in particular the willingness to commit ground troops. While a reactionary and emotive military response got us into the mess that is now Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, it is military inaction that has allowed the problem to persist and worsen. What brings this to light more than any other factor is the most recent terror attack by ISIL on Belgium, hot on the heels of the Paris attacks.
In witnessing the furore and fallout following these, I could not help but ponder as to the lacklustre response juxtaposed with the gravity and symbolism of the attack. Not just this, but more so that those responsible admit culpability and are known to exist and direct such attacks from a defined territory straddling Iraq and Syria, to which they hold dearly as a pseudo-State. How can an enemy so flagrantly attack innocent civilians in western States, who have the military capability to respond, be so supine? The truth is there has been a response. However it has only been an aerial one. It is understandable why this may be favoured in order to conserve the life of soldiers and still get the job done. Except, following three years of aerial bombardment by the Coalition and Russia, ISIS's hold on territory (with the recent exception of Palmyra) and ability to direct terrorist attacks abroad remains unperturbed.
When MPs voted in favour of extending airstrikes into Syria – in a divided Commons following fraught debate – the most salient counter argument was the ineffectiveness of an air campaign against ISIL without the support of ground troops. The passage of time since is testament to the measured objections of Kier Starmer, Julian Lewis and John Baron as well as the Foreign Affairs Committee. The meagre nature of Britain's contribution to the Coalition since is further proof that the Prime Minister went to war for symbolic reasons and assisting close allies. A cause which clearly was not enough to attempt a vote in Parliament prior to the Paris attacks. The dubious claim of 70,000 strong moderate forces ready to support airstrikes has now also been shown to be smoke and mirrors, not least because rebel forces were engaged in the west against Assad, while the Kurds and ISIL held onto territory in the north and east.
Whereas Iraq and Afghanistan were examples of military excess, not only did they lead to the dire situation in Syria now, but the fear of failure has meant inaction and hesitancy which has exasperated the situation. Libya proved to be the test case for 'intervention-lite', where airstrikes were intended to lend a decisive blow to the incumbent regime. The immediate dislodging of Gaddafi was seen as a success of this approach, albeit there were ample armed ground forces that followed up the airstrikes.
In Syria, even the airstrikes came too late. Midway through the conflict, the international community was on the brink of launching airstrikes against Assad rather than purely ISIL. We may question why it had to take evidence of chemical weapons rather than just the severe loss of civilian life for intervention to be considered. At the time and more so with hindsight, it seemed naïve that Assad's agreement to destroy his chemical weapons was somehow a guarantee of less civilian casualties. Rather it was a reluctance to militarily intervene and preference for a diplomatic solution.
Owing to the instability and continuing loss of civilian life, ISIL were able to gain in prominence and by 2013 the world had forgotten about Assad, resolute in fighting ISIL. But even with this most axiomatic of enemies, with no allies and antithetical to all that we hold dear in a modern civilised and humane world, we have been unwilling to either deal with the root of the problem that is Assad's brutality, or tackle ISIL resolutely and convincingly on the ground.
The lessons and ghosts of Afghanistan and Iraq wring loudly in the ears of world leaders, some of whom came to power on anti-Iraq platforms. They cannot fathom having to explain and justify the loss of soldiers' lives in the pursuance of noble and morally just causes, when so many lives were squandered on hasty and illegitimate wars.

This post comes from guest writer Jennifer Snyder, whose career has been forged around embracing and supporting community.
Regardless of what type of business you have or the types of content you create, those who buy your products, sign up for your services, and read what you write are important. Here at Winning Edits, we see everyone who interacts with your business in any way as a valuable member of your community.
Building and nurturing a community is largely based on how you can help your target audience, but asking your community for feedback is a great way to not only understand their needs and better serve them, but also to keep that audience engaged in your process.
Data Collection
Sometimes you simply want to know how many people have used a product, where a customer heard about your work, or what your audience wants to see next from you. It's incredibly important to check in occasionally to see how your community interacts with your work.
The Setup: If you're looking to collect data for analytical purposes, we highly recommend Typeform (check out ours here) due to its beautiful and easy to use interface. With Typeform, you can set up simple or complex surveys, analyze that data as it comes in, and create reports that can help you move your business forward.
The Ask: When it comes to requesting this type of feedback, we always recommend using every medium at your disposal. If you've got social media accounts set up, be sure to push your survey out to those community members. Email newsletter lists are full of community members who have opted in to your work and are a perfect place to let your audience know you want to hear from them. You can also integrate Typeform surveys directly into your website!
Constructive Feedback
Reviews and testimonials are powerful. Positive reviews can be used to help with marketing your products or services, and are crucial when it comes to understanding what your community loves about your work. Believe it or not, negative reviews are also helpful! A bad review can help you understand where improvement might be needed. Additionally, the community member sharing a negative review is offering you an opportunity to make it right through stellar customer service.
The Setup: You can absolutely include space for reviews or testimonials in the Typeform survey discussed above, but oftentimes reviews are part of a third-party website like Amazon, iTunes, Yelp, and so on. It's easy to feel as though you don't have control over reviews on those third-party websites, but we always like to think about how those tools can work for us, rather than against us. Most of the larger third-party review sites run on algorithms that help the user (your community member in this case) find related items or content they will enjoy. When your community leaves reviews on these websites, they are telling the algorithms that your business or content is noteworthy!
The Ask: If the goal is to include your request for testimonials or reviews in the Typeform survey mentioned above, simply send the full survey out through all of your marketing channels. However, if you'd like to ask you community to leave a review or testimonial on a third-party website, we always recommend asking them to do so at the end of some sort of transaction. For example, if you're recording a podcast episode, make sure you ask your listeners to leave a review on iTunes. If your new ebook is on Amazon, don't forget to include a link in the back matter that will lead readers to a review page.
Peripheral Engagement
While getting feedback in an effort to improve your business is critical, we also advocate for engaging your audience in ways that don't directly relate to your bottom line. Asking your community members questions about things that relate—in a peripheral sense—to whatever it is you do is a great way to get to know your audience on another level.
The Setup: While social media can often feel like a waste of time, platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram are perfect for this type of engagement. The good news is that you don't have to have trillions of followers to start engaging with your community in this way. Even one in-depth comment thread with a client, reader, or customer is valuable when it comes to building and maintaining a solid community.
The Ask: This can be the tricky part. You want to make sure you're asking questions that make sense for your specific audience. For example, if you have an online shop that sells tennis shoes, it wouldn't necessarily make sense to ask whether your community members have a favorite ride at Disneyland. However, it might be fun to show off those tennis shoes in the wild and ask the community to share their favorite running or walking trails where they live. This type of engagement lets your community know you care about how, why, when, and where they might use your product and who knows—you might gain valuable insight that you can use to further your work!
From brick and mortar businesses and ecommerce sites to service-based businesses and personal brands, every successful entrepreneur takes the time to understand those who purchase or interact with their work. Collecting information and engaging your community is just one way to make sure you're meeting the needs of those who support your work, creating the goods or services your audience is looking for, and positioning your business as a brand that cares.
Now it's our turn to ask for feedback: what are your favorite ways to collect feedback from your community and engage your audience members? Let's chat about it in the comment section below!

From Ginny Sherlock, renowned local attorney, civic activist, and former Associated Press editor: Martin County Commissioners will be asked on Tuesday to approve language for a proposed one percent sales tax surcharge that is designed to trick voters into approving more taxes for new government facilities while existing infrastructure continues to crumble.
Voters have been fooled in the past when new taxes approved for environmental and conservation measures were spent instead on politicians' pet projects. Wiser, more fiscally responsible Martin County voters rejected a local sales tax surcharge three years ago.
The County Commission is now being asked to take another run at taxpayers' pocketbooks with a proposal for a 1% increase in sales tax (deceptively described as a 1 cent increase) to "protect the environment and safeguard Martin County's quality of life".
The "One Cent Infrastructure Sales Tax" referendum ballot language will be discussed at Tuesday's County Commission meeting (Agenda Item 8A4) following a joint meeting of the Stuart City Commission, Martin County School Board, and Martin County Commission in the Blake Library auditorium starting at 9:00 a.m.
The County Commission meeting will begin in Commission Chambers following the joint meeting, which should last an hour or so.
The joint meeting agenda includes overviews of County and City capital improvement and large-scale development projects and the School District's five-year capital plan. The Arts Council of Martin County will present a proposal for a $15 million project to convert the old Stuart High School Building into a Cultural Center.
The joint meeting presentations are worthy of taxpayer attention. The Cultural Center is very enticing but lacks specific information about how it would be funded. The Arts Council's executive director previously suggested that proceeds from the local sales tax could be used for this purpose.
The City of Stuart wants to use much of its share of the anticipated sales tax proceeds to re-locate City Hall, at an estimated cost of $7 million.
The County wants to spend $27 million in sales tax proceeds on a storage facility and obstacle course at the Sheriff's gun range, a purchasing warehouse for the Sheriff's Department, a field operations center and a general services facility for the Public Works Department, and a training facility and fire stations for the Fire Rescue Department. Another $9.4 million is earmarked for expansion of Sailfish Splash Waterpark and $10 million for an indoor sports facility.
Are you getting the connection between the proposed sales tax expenditures and the promise "to protect the environment and safeguard Martin County's Quality of Life"?
Speaking of promises related to the proposed sales tax increase, Commission Chair Doug Smith has repeatedly assured taxpayers that if they approve the sales tax increase, the Commission will reduce the Florida Power & Light franchise fee that was approved to fund infrastructure projects after voters rejected a previous sales tax hike. However, nowhere in the sales tax agenda item is there any reference to reducing the FPL franchise fee.
The proposed ballot language does not contain a promise to reduce the franchise fee. The proposed ordinance does not contain a requirement to reduce the franchise fee. The staff summary does not address any reduction in the franchise fee.
What assurance do voters have that if they approve a sales tax increase, the FPL franchise fee will be reduced?
What assurance do voters have that if they approve a sales tax increase, the proceeds will be used to reduce the existing backlog of infrastructure repairs and replacements rather than to build new facilities and improvements that will only add to the backlog?
NOTE TO COMMISSION: "Trust me" is not a good answer.
The proposed ballot language is insulting to the intelligence of Martin County voters by suggesting that the $23 million raised annually by the 1% sales tax increase will be used "to protect the environment and safeguard Martin County's quality of life."
A Frequently Asked Questions sheet produced by staff makes it appear that sales tax proceeds would be used only to reduce the $400+ million backlog of infrastructure needs. However, the proposed ordinance authorizes expenditure of sales tax funds for a variety of new construction and projects.
The ordinance limits the amount that may be used for "quality of life projects" to 25% of sales tax proceeds, while the lion's share would be used for stormwater treatment projects and septic to sewer projects, reconstructing existing roads, drainage systems and bridges included in the adopted Capital Improvement Plan, to plan and construct or reconstruct facilities for the sheriff, fire rescue and public works departments and projects that comply with Sec. 212.055(2)(d)1, Florida Statutes.
Sec. 212.055(2)(d)1 defines "infrastructure" as any construction, reconstruction or improvement of public facilities with a life expectancy of 5 or more years, any related land acquisition, land improvement, design, engineering and other professional costs, any fire department or emergency medical service vehicle, any sheriff or police vehicle or any other vehicle and equipment to outfit the vehicle for official use, any construction, lease or maintenance of utility facilities and any expenditure for improvement of any private facility that the owner agrees to make available for use on a temporary basis as a public shelter or staging area for response equipment during an officially declared emergency.
Are you getting the connection between allowable expenditures and the promise "to protect the environment and safeguard Martin County's Quality of Life" with proceeds from the local sales tax surcharge?
The proposed sales tax ordinance and ballot language are so broad that virtually any project the Commission majority wants to pay for can be funded, regardless of whether the expenditure protects our environment or improves our quality of life.
Why doesn't the language limit expenditures to backlogged projects which are already approved but not funded or maintenance and repairs for existing projects?
The proposed ballot language and ordinance allow new tax dollars to be used for an indoor sports facility or a new fleet of County vehicles or improvement of certain private property, regardless of political promises to reduce backlogs or lower the FPL franchise fee.
Speaking of broken promises, Staff will not be presenting a proposed contract with the Humane Society of the Treasure Coast in Agenda Item 8A3, despite the County Attorney's assurance at the May 23 meeting that a new contract would be submitted by June 2 and presented to the BCC on June 6.
HSTC continues to receive $46,670.60 in taxpayer dollars each and every month with no contractual obligations. HSTC and Martin County staff have delayed presenting a new contract for more than eight months. Experts have advised the County that the amount taxpayers pay HSTC is far higher than amounts paid for animal care services in larger communities. The BCC voted to require any new contract to include provisions recommended by the Domestic Animal Control Task Force, including adequate flea and tick control and heartworm prevention for all animals impounded at the Palm City Shelter and elimination of the use of heart stick – an excrutiatingly painful method of euthanasia.
Why are staff and commissioners allowing this practice to continue at taxpayer expense?
In another inexcusable exercise in foot-dragging, County staff has failed to bring forward a trap-neuter/spay-vaccinate-
Caring Fields Felines, Inc., a non-profit feral cat sanctuary which drafted the existing ordinance and sponsors the pilot program, drafted a new ordinance and presented it to the County Attorney on March 9 to help move a permanent ordinance forward before the pilot program expires. (Full disclosure: I am a former president of CFF and current legal counsel to the organization.) However, staff stumbled through the May 18 ACCOB meeting without making any serious effort to present a proposed ordinance for review, instead proposing a one-year delay (which ACCOB members rejected in favor of a six-month extension). So long as the County continues to delay adopting a comprehensive TNVR program, hundreds of healthy cats and kittens continue to be euthanized.
In other matters on Tuesday's agenda:
– A preliminary review of requests for grants to private organizations in the upcoming fiscal year and review of proposed revisions to the Grants and Aids Policy will be considered as Agenda Item 8A2.
– A private meeting between Commissioners and County attorneys in the Lake Point rockpit case is scheduled as Agenda Item 8B1 in advance of mediation, which is set for June 12. Lake Point, which is owned and operated in part by George Lindemann, Jr., who served time in federal prison for having his show horse Charisma killed to collect insurance proceeds after the horse failed to perform as expected, claims that Martin County, SFWMD, and Maggy Hurchalla prevented the company from operating as profitably as expected.

Please consider attending the joint meeting of the City-County-School District at the Blake Library at 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, followed by the BCC meeting in Commission Chambers, 2401 SE Monterey Road, Stuart, or let commissioners know how you feel about these and other issues by e-mailing email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, and email@example.com, with copies to the County Administrator and the County Attorney at email@example.com and email@example.com.

How To Jump-Start Your Dating Life
1. Get Prepared For Dating
If you really want to succeed in the dating game, be ready to commit to dating. Halfheartedness won't work. In fact, it won't even get you half-way. If you really want to date, put some effort into it. Do some research and think about what you want out of dating. Prepare yourself for the inevitable rejection we all face at some point in dating and commit not to give up.
2. Get Your Act Together
Begin a regime of looking your best. Join a gym, read health magazines, get fit and start a diet. Get your hair cut or styled and begin a new regime of good grooming or beauty treatment. Though it will not find you a date in itself, you will feel a million times more confident about yourself, and others can sense that.
3. Go Shopping!
Treat yourself to new clothes and even a whole new look. Get your image right, one that you can manage and live with, but one that flatters you. Don't try to be someone you're not, but amplify and accentuate your positives. Throw out those tired jeans, old sweaters or cardigans and spruce yourself up. Your date will appreciate that you demonstrated some effort.
4. Think About What You Want
Think about what you want to gain from dating and what time frames you expect. Do you see yourself married within two years? If you do, then approach dating accordingly. If you are more laid back and don't take dating too seriously then ask yourself some honest questions about why you are dating and what you hope to achieve.
5. Surround Yourself with Supportive People
Surround yourself with people who will support your dating aims. By following the first four tips you will feel better and be more focused. Don't sabotage this by sitting around with friends who are negative about love and relationships.
6. Be Realistic
Choose those you have a good chance of dating. In other words, your dating is based on the whole package you present as well as your personality. If you are looking for a glamour girl or boy and want to date someone trendy and gorgeous, great! Just know that others will expect you to be the same.
7. Take Time Off
Take time off from dating occasionally if it's not going well or causing dating fatigue. Recharging your batteries and keeping confidence and optimism levels high is an absolute must. We all hit rough patches, but don't let your search for love become a death march. Date in phases if necessary.
8. Enjoy Dating For What It Is; Dating.
Dating is meeting people and socializing and spending time in the company of stimulating individuals who may or may not play a bigger part in your life down the road. The fact is, most people have something interesting to offer. While you may not be out on the dating scene looking for new friends, you may well find one or two fabulous people along the way. You would be surprised how dating can open up different opportunities, not only in love, but in friendships and career paths
9. Never Make Yourself Too Available
People like mystery and enigma and the thrill of the chase when dating. As part of keeping up the mystery, do not sleep with your dates early on. The longer a person is made to chase and fall for you within reason, the more likely that love may blossom. (And yes, this goes for both men AND women!) If the chemistry peaks too early, your emotions may never have time to catch up and the relationship will eventually wither away.
10. Don't take anything too seriously!
Dating should be a fun and enjoyable process. While dating isn't always simple, there are steps you can take to avoid complicated and confusing situations. When you complicate things in the beginning of a relationship, you don't allow the full potential of a relationship to come alive.
I highly recommend reading 8 Habits of Successful Love-Seekers and Dating 101: The Simplicity of Dating before continuing on your journey to find your significant other.

NEW: Parallax 2.1, Retina 3.0, and Mobilia 4.0 adds the ability to create Pre-Order and Coming Soon products.
Please note that this tutorial is not relevant to the most recent versions of our themes, but we have kept it available here for users of older versions.
To apply a button with a 'Pre-Order' caption instead of an 'Add to Cart' caption to the product page of certain products only, go to Admin > Themes > Actions > Edit Code > Templates > Add a Template, of the 'product' type, and name it 'pre-order'. This will create a template called product.pre-order.liquid, and it will be automatically populated with a copy of the product.liquid code.
In the product.pre-order.liquid template, look for this code:
{% include 'product-form' with 'product' %}
... and replace it with this code:
{% include 'product-form-pre-order' with 'product' %}
Then, in Admin > Themes > Actions > Edit Code > Snippets > Add a new Snippet, and name it 'product-form-pre-order' . Go to product-form.liquid, and copy ALL the code. Go to product-form-pre-order.liquid and PASTE all the code. In the code you just pasted, look for this code:
<button type="submit" name="add" class="action_button add_to_cart">{{ 'products.product.add_to_cart' | t }}</button>
... and replace it with this code:
<button type="submit" name="add" class="action_button add_to_cart">Pre-Order</button>
Just to summarize what we have done so far: we have created an alternate product template, which is calling on an alternate product form, which contains an 'add to cart' button with an alternate caption, 'Pre-Order'.
Now you just need to apply the alternate template to the products of your choice. Go to Admin > Products, and select a product that should be set to pre-order. At the bottom of the product edit screen, you will find a dropdown to select a template. Select the 'product.pre-order' template. Repeat this for each product that should show the 'Pre-Order' button.

For centuries Bethlem Hospital was known for the origin of the word "bedlam", meaning a scene of general uproar and confusion. But now it is renowned for the artwork created by its patients.
Set within 270 acres of ground with bluebell woods and an orchard The Bethlem Royal Hospital provides specialist services for people with mental health difficulties.
As part of their therapy, patients are offered the chance to work in the hospital's art studios and in 1997 The Bethlem Gallery was established.
Now, 20 years on, some patients are professional artists and with so much talent coming out of the hospital there is a three-year waiting list for a solo exhibition.
To celebrate the anniversary, 15 artists are exhibiting their work in the It's How Well You Bounce show which explores coping with adversity against society's expectations that people should just "bounce back".
Grayson Perry: Under the radar
Artist Grayson Perry is the patron of The Bethlem Gallery and has contributed a piece of work – Map of an Englishman – to the exhibition.
The "psychogeographic" piece explores his mind with two areas of the map which resemble the two halves of the brain.
Instead of locations, there are behaviours and psychological states such as areas called Narcolepsy and Cliché.
Perry says: "Art is the greatest asset to mental health I have.
"It has this amazing ability to go under the radar and it goes down little pathways which are un-trodden and yet it's still a very legitimate way of thinking and feeling and getting on with your life."
Xavier White: Cheating death
Xavier White survived a traumatic head injury in 1985.
"Art has been a mental and physical motivator. It has enabled me to meditate on and realise my passions, interests and concepts around head injury and cheating death."
He says "brain trauma effects the nuts and bolts" of consciousness and art "makes a bridge between people who find themselves on the outside".
White's cityscape, Cohedia asks the viewer to imagine what kind of world we would create if we were given a blank canvas.
He has worked as an artist in residence at London South Bank University and also produces creative workshops for student mental health nurses.
Bethlem: The palace of all institutions
Bethlem Royal Hospital was founded in 1247 as a place to serve knights setting off to the Holy Land.
By 1403 it was used to house "the insane", but it was not until 1634 that a regular physician was employed.
The site was rebuilt in 1676. With its Corinthian columns and formal gardens it was compared to the Palace of Versailles and regarded as the most opulent asylum in the world.
But inside, the façade was so heavy the building cracked, and when it rained, the walls ran with water.
It was torn down in 1815 and a new building was built. In 1948 it became a psychiatric teaching hospital under the new National Health Service.
Maureen Scott: Painting by candlelight
For three days a week, Scott painted by the light of a single electric light-bulb and for the rest of the time by candlelight due to her financial circumstances in the 1970s.
Unemployed (1972) reflects the challenges her family faced and the struggles of the working class – small living spaces, unemployment and the lack of child support.
"This painting was set in my one room with just space for my cooker on the Holloway Road," she says. "The gloomy light was from a single light bulb and my hope for room to work and breathe only lay in dreams of success as an artist."
She describes the piece as autobiographical. The father-figure is her partner at the time who died from a second heart attack. He had refused to take medication after the first.
"It was a terrifying death I found impossible to deal with," she says.
Liz Atkin: A daily reprieve
Atkin has Dermatillomania more commonly known as Compulsive Skin Picking. She also has chronic anxiety and was signed off from work for 10 months due to a depressive episode.
Her work involves creating lots of marks over-and-over-again.
"I use art to work through my condition that explores the body-focused repetitive behaviour of this particular mental illness…which might be too hard to explain in words," she says.
"I certainly feel that art is now my most important tool for my wellbeing, but this is a daily reprieve for me, not a cure."
She describes Bethlem Gallery as a "true beacon of hope" for the artists and their recovery.
Liz has exhibited in Australia, America and Japan and is known for her #CompulsiveCharcoal drawings which she creates while riding on public transport and gives to passengers.
Sue Morgan: Drawing an identity
Sue Morgan was diagnosed with schizophrenia more than 20 years ago and uses art to express the hallucinations she experiences.
"I had lost my house, my partner and my job, but I still kept on putting marks to paper," she says.
"Moving out of a successful career into the mental health sector as a patient was devastating and the staff at the Bethlem Gallery encouraged me to create a new identity.
"It was slow and not without darkness. But I can truly say that without the support I would not have been able to complete a degree in drawing and to go on to feel that I still had something to contribute to the planet."
It's How Well You Bounce runs until 28 October and is open to the public.

Chances are you've heard about the Nepal Earthquake. At the time of writing this post it is reported that over 4,300 individuals have died and thousands injured. The earthquake happened in the early afternoon on Saturday and by early Tuesday morning media coverage has begun to dwindle. Obviously a disaster in one area does not stop news from occurring in another. Likewise, it is easy to exhaust the viewer with the constant and incessant coverage of a disaster. However, as has been seen in the past with many different disasters in many regions in the world, coverage ceases far before adequate help is provided.
A report seen on the news last night was covering the disastrous earthquake that happened in Haiti a couple of years ago. Many groups that were untrained and unskilled flew to the country with the good intention of helping, but ended up hindering and slowing down search and rescue efforts. While many of us may be saddened by the events and want to help those in need, perhaps the best way we can do so is to support those that have the talent to make a difference in the best way possible. If you have a medical background or are trained in disaster relief by all means I encourage you to see how you can assist the Nepali people. For others, like myself, I encourage you to give what you can to a charity that is working to assist with the efforts in Nepal. I personally believe that investigation should be made into the charity that you decide to donate to. Their track record should be looked at as well as the charity's overall purpose and mission, and you should ensure that it aligns with your own values. Often individuals simply donate to whichever charity is convenient, which may lead to the unknowing support of a hidden agenda or underlying mission.
Below is a list of charities and opportunities to make a contribution to the relief efforts in Nepal. Please be sure to do thorough research before making any donation.
- Nepal Red Cross Society (which is heading Red Cross efforts in the region) is accepting donations
- Times of India is having a drive for needed materials.
- CARE's India branch is collecting donations.
- AmeriCares has emergency teams in Nepal.
- CARE's US branch is collecting donations.
- Concern Worldwide is collecting donations.
- Direct Relief is collecting donations.
- GlobalGiving Foundation is collecting donations. *Donation can be made via text*
- Handicap International is collecting donation.
- International Medical Corps is collecting donations through both their site & through Facebook.
- OxFam is collecting donations.
- UNICEF is collecting donations.
- World Food Programme is collecting donations.
Do your part. Make a contribution and help encourage others to do the same.

Thanks to all who made the Resonate sponsored kick-off at iMedia InFocus Summit in Chicago a success.
The theme of "What Women Want from Brands" could not have been more relevant. Resonate is helping agencies and marketers get past such flat demographics to understand why: the values, beliefs, motivations and preferences, that cause people to engage.
The quote of the summit from "How Signals are Trumping Demographics:"
"'If all you do is start at the very end of your event chain, all you'll do is work back sequentially and never really get to that perfect moment, that amazing 'ahha! This is the signal to focus on."

How could interactive content improve your online presence?
With any business, old or new, your online presence has become a critical factor in ensuring that potential customers can engage and invest in your services. It's important, therefore that you are incorporating dynamic content to keep your customers interested.
Interactive content is, essentially, content that requires active participation from the user directly. Not only could this create a more interesting webpage in comparison to static sites (with only readable or viewable content), but it could significantly improve your overall online presence and your ability to generate customer leads.
Interactive options to suit you
If you believe that interactive content could be the key to improving your online presence, and generating customer leads, there are multiple options you could seek to include. Whilst we've written about these options previously, here's a short break down to remind you of what is available.
Customer assessments require a series of questions to be completed by customers before they are sorted into a particular category. This can then provide users with content best applicable to them, whilst you can log important customer information.
Calculators generate individual numerical results for the user, dependent on certain values that they input. Banking websites use this form of interactive content frequently, particularly with mortgage and finance calculators, however they can be built around a number of factors.
Trivia style quizzes are excellent on web-pages and social media, and offer a scored output based on the number of correct or incorrect answers entered.
For a better way to generate customer feedback, polls and surveys can offer a simple solution, and work well on social media sites.
Bracket interactive content requires customers to predict the outcome of a game or event, based on a round-by-round scenario, similar to a knockout tournament.
Engage your audience for improved customer experience
Static websites can often leave potential customers bored and uninspired, which could mean they leave your webpage quickly without engaging with the primary content presented. By incorporating interactive content customers are encouraged to, quite literally, interact with the content presented – whether it's a poll, quiz or calculator. Humans hold the natural instinct and desire to test themselves and try new things, and taking part in a quiz or assessment could reveal previously unknown information about themselves.
If customers are able to engage more actively with your content their overall experience will improve, improving your online presence and generating multiple new customer leads.
Providing you with valuable customer insight
The addition of this content does provide tailored information to suit the customer that utilises it, but in reality there is value for both sides. This use of this content can provide your business with vital information about the customer that can subsequently be translated into your marketing strategy. This can generate important customer leads, and help to guide customers down a particular route in accordance with their identified wants and goals.
Can adapt to any strategy or marketing program
Interactive content can quite easily be created or adapted for any marketing strategy or programme, making it an extremely diverse and straightforward solution to increasing customer interest in your business, and improving your online presence and content. When planning an event interactive content can help to garner an understanding of what guests hope to see included. The use of quiz, assessment and bracket content could add an important social aspect to your online content, as participants can engage with one another to compare groupings and results.
Lead Doubler offers practical solutions that allow you to seamlessly incorporate interactive content to your current webpage, social media or blog site, resulting in a noticeable increase in customer lead generation, and improvement of your online presence. For more information about how interactive content could benefit your business, and the various options available, visit our website today.

Increasing focus on plant proteins
Grain processors are embracing the rise in demand for plant proteins, that results from a desire to be more sustainable and the high prices of animal proteins.
Gluten, retrieved after starch extraction from wheat, is already highly valued in the flour industry. According to Trine Høje Andersen, Business Development Manager at Novozymes, the value of gluten can be substantially increased through enzymatic processing.
"Enzymes can solubilize gluten, making it a possible replacement for whey proteins in, for example, calf milk replacers and sports drinks," says Trine. "By carefully selecting the correct proteases, it is possible to reduce the bitter taste often associated with protein hydrolysis. Novozymes' strong protease portfolio combined with competent, local technical support is vital to help our partners excel in value-added protein ingredients."

Remembering André Sornay, the Art Deco Furniture Designer Who Laid the Groundwork for IKEA
The stacking of plywood discs on top of one another provides an obvious illustration of the designer's wish to draw attention to the structural properties of the material used. The piece of wood obtained through the stacking process was turned to produce a cylinder. The plies that constituted the plywood were then displayed as a decorative feature. Paul Dupré-Lafon created his lamp stands using a similar technique, with leather discs cut out with a press knife and then stacked on top of one another. Later, in the early 1970s, Frank O'Ghery would use the stacking method as well, to create a table lamp with a cylindrical stand made out of layered corrugated cardboard.

The Civic Federation of Chicago is urging Mayor Rahm Emanuel to "modernize" an overly generous personnel policy that allowed former Police Superintendent Jody Weis to walk away with more than $76,000 for unused vacation days when he resigned his $310,000-a-year job, reports the city's Sun-Times. Civic Federation President Laurence Msall noted that most private sector companies limit to 14 the number of unused vacation days their employees can cash out upon resignation.
Weis walked away with a $76,308 lump-sum payment for 64 unused days. His former $168,438-a-year chief of staff left police headquarters with a check for $30,448 for 54 unused vacation days. Weis is among 1,026 city employees paid $7.4 million for their unused vacation days since September 2010 in the transition from former Mayor Richard M. Daley to Emanuel, the paper said.

Text Box Fitting
Infix can alter various aspects of text formatting in order to make text fit inside its text box.
Edit a text box using the Text tool then choose:
Text > Box Alignment > Full...
The text shown here is top aligned which is the default alignment.
Use the Text Box Fitting Limits dialogue box to select the aspects of formatting which should be modified and by how much.
During fitting, Infix tries altering the enabled aspects of formatting in the order they are listed in the dialogue.
The fitting process stops as soon as an acceptable result has been achieved even if all metrics have not yet been used.
Deactivate fitting metrics by un-checking their check boxes.
The first two metrics simply adjust the word and letter spacing of text to try to achieve a fit.
The adjustment is between the supplied limits and is in addition to any spacing metrics already in effect on the text.
The Leading Scale metric modifies the leading and paragraph spacing of text within the percentage limits supplied.
In this example, leading and paragraph spacing could be increased from their initial values by as much as 200% during fitting (or reduced to 75%)
Adjust the gap between paragraphs independently of the leading via this metric.
Adjustments range between the Min and Max point values supplied. If Min is set to 0 then paragraph spacing will never be reduced. If Max is set to 0, paragraph spacing will never be increased.
The final metric adjusts the font size of all text in a text box by the same number of points in order to obtain best fitting.
Fitting may be restricted to text that overflows its text box (overset text).
The alignment to be used to underset
text (text which does not require fitting)
Default "Top" alignment for two linked text boxes
"Full Alignment" applied across both linked text boxes.
- Text fitting is computationally expensive. It is not advisable to edit text with full fitting activated. Apply it only once editing is complete.
- Text Box alignment is remembered even after closing and re-opening PDFs.
- Original formatting (font size, leading & spacing) is restored once full fitting is turned off.
- Unlike the other alignment modes, full text fitting can be applied across linked text boxes.

By Karen Boone, O.M.D., Ph.D., L.Ac
Reverse Speech is a newly-discovered form of human communication which promises to turn the world as we know it literally upside-down. Reverse Speech is the unedited voice of the unconscious. It cannot be manipulated or directed by the conscious mind, but, instead, reflects the soul's purest viewpoint. It is raw truth, blunt and to the point. Occasionally beautiful, often ugly and generally poetic, Reverse Speech is about to emerge as the phenomenon of the century, jolting an unwitting humankind into the Age of Awareness.
Reverse Speech was born on October 27, 1983 in Berri, South Australia, a lush rural town in the Riverlands just fifty miles from the Australian Outback. There, a portable tape recorder was carelessly dropped into a toilet bowl by twenty-eight-year-old David John Oates while he was shaving. An electronics buff, amateur radio operator and juvenile church counselor, David cleaned up the recorder, put it back together, and found he had on his hands a recorder that could only play in reverse. He put the somewhat useless reverse-playing rnachine in a drawer and basically forgot about it. Not too long afterwards, several of the "street kids" in his charge asked him about the Satanic messages that were rumored by visiting evangelists to be hidden behind the lyrics in popular music, and which were supposedly intended to control unaware listeners. The teenagers told him that the messages could apparently only be heard by playing the tapes backwards. Upset that the evangelists were terrifying them, David pulled out his 'useless' reverse recorder to prove the evangelists wrong. And it was at this point that history began to change.
In addition to a few intentionally-planted "backmasked" messages, some other seemingly nonintentional phrases could be deciphered from amidst the jibberish when the tapes were played in reverse. The rnessages were occasionally Satanic, yes, especially when found in heavy metal music where the lyrics spoke of suicide and hell. But, amazingly, the backwards messages found in love songs tended to reflect loving thoughts, while gospel music contained messages with religious overtones. Furthermore, intentionally "backmasked" messages could easily be identified, as jibberish could be heard underlying the track when it was played in its regular forward mode. However, many of the words and phrases that David was finding were decipherable simultaneously both forwards AND backwards. They didn't appear to be intentional at all. Intrigued and puzzled, David began to devote entire days to researching what he called "reversals" in music and then in everyday speech. Those early days of research stretched into months and then years. He studied tapes of children, politicians, criminals and everyday conversations. Now, finally, after thirteen years of eighteen- to twenty-hour workdays, Research Speech, as it has since become known, is a phenomenon that must be reckoned with.
Essentially, what David discovered was that our spoken language is actually bi-level. A second form of communication consistently occurs imbedded backwards within our forward speech, outside of our conscious control or knowledge. In fact, it appears that the sounds of our language probably even evolved in such a way that our messages could be communicated both forwards and backwards simultaneously.
Reverse Speech is a concept which has, since its discovery, been met with great skepticism. Without considering the research data fairly, many...perhaps most...have gone so far as to ridicule the entire concept as yet another New Age novelty. However, to me, as a practitioner of oriental rnedicine whose entire philosophy is based upon Yin and Yang, or opposites within a whole, the idea that we had ever considered that verbal communication might be singularly forward appears to be much more absurd. According to all that I know, every forward flow has its reverse flow; the left brain function has an opposite right brain function; darkness has its reciprocal light; every covert point has its overt counterpoint; every lie has its corresponding truth And just as the goal for any truly healthy individual is to balance the yin with the yang or the internal with the external, the goal for any truly healthy soul is to balance and unite the unconscious with the conscious to become truly congruent and whole.
Since David John Oates' discovery and detailed documentations of Reverse Speech, we now know that the overt face which we present to the world has a hidden, covert face. Both the overt and covert communicate in tandem, one on a conscious left brain level the other on an unconscious right brain level. The overt may be truthful; the covert is always truthful. Whereas the conscious voice usually speaks in carefully chosen words on carefully chosen topics, the unconscious voice reveals all. The more a lie is defended consciously, the more the truth will be exposed in reverse.
Generally, in the past, unconscious communication was "heard" only via "reading between the lines, " ESP, or what we know of as intuition. Since the discovery of Reverse Speech, however, we know from research done on children that the backward voice is not only real, but actually learns to express itself as much as six to twelve months before the forward voice learns to speak...that the forward dialogue is actually dependent upon reverse dialogue in the gradual developmental process of forming a bi-level communication.
Reverse Speech is based upon the principle of complementarity, which simply means that the topic of the forward speech is the same as the topic of the reverse. I think of the reverse as basically editing and correcting the conscious dialogue on a continual basis. There are many types of reversals. Congruent reversals are those that confirm the forward dialogue, as compared to contradictory ones which may correct false statements. Expansive reversals add more information to what is said forwards. Reverse dialogue may occur with oneself (internal) or be directed towards another (external). Trail and lead reversals occur when reverse dialogue speaks of a topic just discussed or about to be discussed. Link reversals combine the unfinished thoughts of one person with those of another who might complete the phrase. And lastly, comparative reversals--which rnay appear to be the exception of the principle of complementarity--are complementary with experiences of the same emotional tone, rather than the same topic.
10% or so of Reverse Speech phrases occur in everyday English. These are called First Level Reversals, and they are straight to the point. Little interpretation is called for in the analysis of these. 90% or more of all Reverse Speech dialogue, however, is metaphoric, communicated in pictures or parables, sirnilar to dreams. Second Level Reversals, also known as Operational Metaphors, reflect how behavior is played out. They are action words, and may be individual for each person. These differ from Third Level Reversals, or Structural Metaphors, which reflect the deep programming within each of us. These are those precepts that direct our behavior and beliefs, that limit or allow our happiness and achievements. These metaphors even reveal the collective unconscious, as they are consistent from one person to another. We each run a few principal structural metaphors and will show similarities to another who runs the same metaphors.
Speech reversals may vary from a Single Word, which may communicate intense feeling, to Long Sentences, which are highly significant, as their occurrence is somewhat rare. Reversals may be expressed as Cause and Effect, one part of the punctuation-separated reversal indicating an event or fact, the other part being the cause of that. Mirror Image reversals have the same word or words begin or end both the forward and reverse dialogue, but are not reversals of each other. When the forward and reverse dialogue combine together to complete one thought, these are termed Sentence Building reversals. Double Emphasis reversals repeat a phrase two or more times successively for added emphasis. In Semi-Formed reversals, the last word or the last part of the last word may be dropped into the jibberish, trailing off as is also comrnon in forward speech. As far as tense, reversals may be Past Tense (having already occurred), Present Tense (current patterns, actions or thoughts) or Future Tense (will surely pass if action is not taken to prevent the occurrence.)
Reverse Speech is the ultimate truth detector. It has no need to be polite or tactful. It can blast us to the depths of our souls in its blatent accuracy and honesty. It can be shocking when a previously unknown self-truth is exposed to the conscious mind, and is rnade even more horrifying if we refuse to open our eyes to the new reality. Optimally, on an individual level once we are able to see how our own self-computers are programmed, we rnay change the programming if we so choose, bringing what for most of us is a first chance at truly healthy, conscious living.
On a larger level, we have the rare opportunity to take the truths of Reverse Speech into our hearts, our homes and our businesses, clearing the way for a truly honest, functional global existence. In reverse, what we say is what we mean, and what we mean is what we say. Anyone who chooses to use this tool when deciding on a business partner, employee or a course of action will have the winning edge. If the world is ready for it, Reverse Speech will be used by the leaders and innovators in every field from psychology to medicine, business to law enforcement, athletics to the stage within the next few years. I firmly believe that anyone who doesn't use this tool will be at a great disadvantage in the twenty-first century. It is the dawning of the Age of Awareness, and the bus is now boarding. Are you coming?

Ho-Daddy wrap-up and beyond… A productive spring!
Hello fellow simians,
First, we want to thank all of you who came out to the 2nd annual holiday ho-daddy at Byrne's Pub. The reception was great and once again we raised hundreds of dollars for the Mid-Ohio Foodbank at a time when the need is great! For those of you who missed it, we had a full hour and a half of songs and witty banter. The show included an extended drum solo between the Drumbuie and Low Frequency Echo-Communicator that had the audience dancing and pining for the primordial days of yore! Th Six String Sapien gnashed his teeth on several tunes and had solos that left you wondering how Neanderthals and early modern humans lost the gift given to them by Australosurfecus… Only recently has some of that glory been re-discovered, and a good portion of it due to the re-emergence of the Six String Sapien himself!
After the show the members of the band retreated to the cave for much needed rest and to begin the very secretive and primitive ritual of creating new songs for the modern public to consume. Several new tunes are either completed or in the works for the next time the band ventures from the cave. The idea of recording a mini-demo is also in the works, as the old recordings of the group were made with Tertiary Era technology and lack a little gusto. All three of the band members are eager to take advantage of Quaternary methods, which will enhance the primitive sonic experience for everyone. Shows are in the works, new tunes are in the works… the future looks bright for the Surfeci and there seems to be no signs of a second mass extinction!
