Audio/Video Quality: Belladonna's Fucking Girls 7 was presented in the usual 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen color as shot by director Aiden Riley for Evil Angel. Aiden is often uncredited or barely credited in Belladonna's movies but he has long been a major part of the team working camera and doing whatever needs be done to make her movies work. Still, without Belladonna participating in front of the camera, her lack of credit as a director makes me think her name should not be so prominently displayed all over the cover. As expected, the mixed level of lighting resulted in some grain and video noise, the creative team behind the project focusing on raw energy and kink over technical superiority, a few of the scenes looking unpolished and rough. Still, the action was clear enough and fetish fans will find the sheer amount of lesbian fuck for the buck to be enough to largely compensate for the technical limitations that still remain. The audio was presented in a similar fashion with a 2.0 Dolby Digital English (in the usual 192 Kbps bitrate and 48 kHz sampling rate) offering that sounded hollow with no separation between the channels and no music. There were some off camera noises at times and a few bits of vocal acting that could have been done over to sound better but the visuals were the worst part of this section.

Body of Review: Aiden Riley is best known in porn circles as the husband of Belladonna, his work as her long time cameraman and production assistant yielding him some acclaim at Evil Angel. The latest project he released under her banner is called Belladonna's Fucking Girls 7, the latest volume in the formerly popular series where a bunch of lesbian scenes showcase hotties gobbling gash, eating ass, and going all out to get each other off. The last volume of the series came out some years ago but given a cast including Sarah Vandella, Skin Diamond, Asa Akira, Chastity Lynn, and London Keyes (among others), I figured it was worth a look even if Belladonna was not credited as director or seen in a scene (she has recently announced her latest hiatus from porn so her number of scenes will be dwindling altogether in due course). While I prefer the ladies drain men dry of genetic juice, the population pudding flying all over the place, lesbian flicks tend towards the tame side in my experience; hence my appreciation for Belladonna's often super charged exploits with either gender (few can milk the splooge as well as she has proven). Still, I went into the show with an open mind to see what would come of Aiden taking the reins all by himself, hoping Belladonna again played a key role. Here's a very brief look at the cast and action, noting that no condoms were used for those still interested:
Chastity Lynn and Vicki Chase
Scene One: London Keyes and Asa Akira, two of the hottest Asian babes in the entire porn world, were up first as featured on the front cover. The ladies were lounging on a large gray couch shooting the breeze at length, eventually settling on Asa offering to teach London some Japanese in exchange for some pussy licking. Having watched both of these sexy babes more times than I can count, perhaps even a dozen times together at that, I knew this would be a great scene with fantastic chemistry. As it turned out, I can see why they were posted on the front cover and made the opening spot of the movie! They both ate each other out really well, the gash gobbling and rimming combining with their facial expressions and body language to the way they fingered each other and pulled hair making this work for me. They clearly adored one another and got off, the lack of ball batter not weakening the act one bit.
Scene Two: Skin Diamond, a lean black gal with a partially shaven head, and equally lean bleach blond Lia Lor, were up next as Skin taught Lia a few things about posing. They initially left the muted red couch to enter the white room area, their sexy attire including stripper shoes, black hosiery, and barely enough material to cover their assets. As the lesson progressed, Skin kissed Lia, pulling her closer as they went back to the couch to start kissing more aggressively. That led to them pawing each other and grinding their hips, some light finger sucking evolving into full blown rug munching and toy use. Lia sported a small pubic patch while Skin was shaven bare, their eye contact and respiration rate giving the impression that they were not lipstick lesbians in the slightest. They were vocal but not in an over the top manner as so many lesbian scenes tend to be these days, Skin getting a bit out there as Lia drilled for gold in her snatch. They provided full service oral too, some tonguing of their perfect puckers driving them over the edge.
Scene Three: Sarah Vandella, a curvy blond that I have not seen nearly enough of late, was up next with redhead Lea Lexis. Sarah was worried about a job interview and Lea gave her some tips, the discussion moving to the topic of body language before Sarah removed her top to show off her sheer shirt (and beaming nipples underneath). While Lea was the weak link for me in terms of the cast of the movie, she seemed to be at home working with Sarah, the two using some toys to break the ice sexually though greatly enhanced by their oral efforts on each other. Sarah's ass became the initial focal point of exploration here, Lea working some graduated anal plugs into her stretched ass and then the ladies taste testing them and working in other toys along the way. Sarah reciprocated really well too, the fact that she was a big selling point for me in picking the movie up in the first place certainly helping me appreciate the scene a whole lot (and Lea's anal gape was huge compared to some I've seen). They ended with some mutual masturbation that turned into one last bout of lesbian boning, the satisfied look on their faces proving to be realistic.
Scene Four: Chastity Lynn, a blond anal queen, and cute Latina Vicki Chase, were up last as they engaged in some stretching and exercises on a mat. Chastity was teaching Vicki and they wore matching red tank tops with black stretch pants, their flexible bodies looking more impressive when they ditched all their clothing (Vicki initially leaving on a black thong). Chastity pulled out a bunch of sex toys and the ladies started caressing and eating each other out, Chastity getting especially frisky when it came to savoring Vicki's asshole. The playfulness and energy between them was great, the kink factor including a number of touches from the foot fetish to the spitting to the use of the stretch poses for toy use. They emphasized anal here in almost the entire scene, both ladies giving and taking a lot of heated antics from the tongues and toys. They got rough with each other too, fans of hairy bushes perhaps liking Chastity more than usual here.

Summary: Belladonna's Fucking Girls 7 by director Aiden Riley for Evil Angel had a diverse cast of ladies including Sarah Vandella, Skin Diamond, Asa Akira, Chastity Lynn, and London Keyes. The technical aspects looked like a modest upgrade from some of the movies Aiden has worked on in recent years too, the real strength of the sexual trysts being the pairing of ladies that really liked other women, showed chemistry, performed with enthusiasm, and provided some serious stroke material to populate our spank banks. All four of the lengthy scenes provided the kind of footage I associate with movies tied to Belladonna even though she was not credited with a role this time, the end result being a well earned rating of Highly Recommended that I did not anticipate when I picked up the movie this morning. In short, Belladonna's Fucking Girls 7 offered solid levels of lesbian fuck for the buck with a great cast, director Aiden Riley proving he had what it takes to compete with the better known forces in porn so check it out.

Natural language processing (NLP) is a field of computer science, artificial intelligence, and computational linguistics concerned with the interactions between computers and human (natural) languages. Many challenges in NLP involve natural language understanding, that is, enabling computers to derive meaning from human or natural language input, and deliver data insights which are helpful for business users to take faster and correct decisions. It minimizes the effort of tool learning and saves a lot of time for other works.
NLP in Kautilya acts like a Google search engine for data analysis. NLP dashboard allows users to type their day to day business questions in a natural language to know the story of the data. It enables the organization to play with their huge data and saves a lot of time, effort and cost in data analysis. Besides this, it works as a great enabler for quick decisions, ensuring far lesser mistakes and spotting problem areas.
Few of the benefits of NLP
- User friendly interface – Google Like User Interface.
- Minimizes the effort of technical assistance or tool knowledge.
- Minimizes the effort of consolidation of data/ report on a single dashboard.
- Allow users to dig deeper into the data and empowers them to take correct business decisions.
- Align business activities with corporate strategy.
- Reduce time spent and effort in data entry and manipulation.
- Offers greater visibility into what customers' want, when they want and how they want.

Auto shops try to keep up with rising sales and recalls, according to The Detroit News.
The wave of record-breaking recalls is keeping dealership service shops humming — and some dealers think it will only get busier heading into the fall.
Service departments at dealerships across multiple brands are feeling the rush as U.S. auto sales grow and bring in new business, at the same time millions of vehicles have been called back for safety reasons.
To accommodate new-car buyers and keep up with demand created by recalls, some dealerships are expanding service hours or staff. Some companies such as Toyota Motor Corp. and General Motors Co. offer free maintenance such as oil changes and tire rotations for a few years as part of buying or leasing a new vehicle, adding to service work.
One Metro Detroit Ford dealership said it is booking customers' recall repairs into December because the shop is so busy.
GM alone has recalled 29 million vehicles this year — the Detroit automaker recalled 8.45 million last Monday alone — and industry recalls have risen to around 39 million.

I realized after a couple of attempts that I wasn't much of a convention person. Part of it is gaming with randos; as all of you are randos, please be assured that I mean no offense, but my general outlook is one of humanistic misanthropy. I assume that people are fundamentally decent and deserving of respect, but that doesn't entail I want to spend time with them. So there's a default supposition that I don't want to play games with strangers.
Note that I realize that this is perverse, and many of my close friends were strangers with whom I played a game or two. But it is what it is.
There's another feature of cons that doesn't suit me, though–and it has to do with scheduling. Generally speaking, I always want to play a game–there is long a list of games I'll play pretty much whenever. There is an exception, though–the time when I don't want to play a game is generally after I've played about 3ish hours of games. There is a cooldown period during which I'd rather just do my own thing alone, and then I'm up for games again. The strange thing is that the cooldown is very short, only about ten minutes or so. If I don't get it, I sometimes start getting the powerful urge to leave. But then, after the ten minutes have expired, I am just as keen to play a game as I am after a week without.
Notably, I am the same way with many video games that I adore. After about 3 hours or so of a new Mass Effect (for example), I want to stop playing, but then ten minutes later I often find myself turning the TV on again.
There are exceptions, of course, and some of those baffle me. If the game is very long and I enjoy it, I can and will play it all in one sitting–10+ hours can be no problem (and yet this isn't true of video games). Perhaps it's the changing of gears that I find taxing, or repeated early game to endgame arcs that drain me. I don't know. I can go much longer if all the other players are close friends, but that's no mystery.
I am quite sure I am not alone in needing to stagger my gaming a little. The problem is the desire for solitude, which at a con is not readily available. Being alone to do your own thing is also much harder when not, say, at home. It can sometimes also be difficult to extricate yourself from the environment without seeming anti-social (which is perhaps apt, as it is arguably anti-social), and then you have to resubmit yourself to the transactional social friction of inserting yourself into a new game. It's all so taxing.
I say all this about to disembark to a con-like experience. Wish me luck?

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a large Dutch oven, bring the water to a boil over high heat. Add the green beans and boil until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain, and plunge into ice water to stop the cooking.
Wrap 5 or 6 green beans with 1 carrot ribbon. Place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the process with the remaining green beans and carrot ribbons.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon pieces over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; set aside. Reserve 3 tablespoons bacon drippings in a skillet and heat over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the brown sugar and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the balsamic vinegar and cook for 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the olive oil. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the hot mixture evenly over the green bean bundles. Bake until green beans are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with bacon before serving.

HBO aires 'Thrilla in Manilla' as told through Frazier's eyes...
Listening to Joe Frazier talk about his legendary third bout against arch-rival Muhammad Ali on that sweltering morning in the Phillipines back in 1975, you get the impression that he's still upset about the controversial decision.
Many still contest the outcome, saying Frazier was the clear victor. However, the judges along with much of the world, saw things differently as they watched the two galant men battle together (nearly to the death) inside the humid capital city's Araneta Coliseum. "I really didn't watch the fight because I didn't like the way it finished," Frazier remarked when asked why he never bothered to watch the footage until now.
This furiously paced contest between Frazier, the heavy-handed slugger with the devastating left hook and the ever kinetic Ali, ended with both combatants brutally battered and barely able to move about for days afterwards.
Frazier claims that he never forgave his trainer and cornerman, Eddie Futch, for stopping the fight at the end of the 14th round. With one of Frazier's eyes completely swollen shut by then, Futch made a rational choice to throw in the towl for his fighter. Meanwhile, Ali was suffering in his corner from all the intense punishment that Frazier had relentlessly inflicted to his body.
Fueled by Ali's "showboating" of repeated insults and verbal mockery towards Frazier all the way up to the bell as well as during the fight, their rivalry ensued for decades. This always frustrated Frazier who remembers defending Ali at a time when the charasmatic fighter was forced to relinquish his Championship Belt after refusing to register for the draft during the Vietnam War. At another time, Frazier claims he even loaned a down-and-out Ali some money to help him get by.
When asked why he'd be so generous to the man who once mocked him as a "gorilla" Frazier solemly replied in his trademark gravelly tone,"That's what being a M-A-N is about. I'm not like those new fighters where the man is down, you kick him around."
The last fight between Smokin' Joe Frazier and the always charismatic Ali is the subject of a new documentary called "Thrilla in Manila" making its debut on HBO, an in-depth look inside the backstory of a historical championship boxing match between the two icons. "Thrilla in Manilla" details Frazier's true first-hand accountings leading up to the vicious 1975 fight, including his views on Ali's over-the-top media personality and Frazier's own impoverished background, which some claim may have helped to split public opinons along social and racial lines among many Boxing fans at the time.
"Thrilla in Manilla" hits upon much of the well-hyped controversy surrounding the fight and its two colorful central rival charactors, while it effectively displays the contradictions in each of their personas. The documentary, directed by John Dower and narrated by Liev Schreiber, also depicts the contrasts between the very different circumstances of the two ex-champions today. Ali suffering from advanced Parkinson's disease, remains a beloved figure, while Frazier lives rather modestly in a backroom of the building where he's owned a gym, still exuberantly training young fighters, in Philadelphia.
On Saturday November 5, 2011, 67 year-old former Boxing Champ Joe Frazier was diagnosed with severe liver cancer and had been under closely monitored hospice care for the past few weeks.
Frazier's longtime personal business manager Leslie Wolff stated that the doctors had not yet determined how long the legendary boxer might be expected to live. "We have medical experts looking into all the options that are out there," Wolff reported. "There are very few. But, that does not mean we're going to stop looking."
Wolff also stated that Frazier had been in and out of a doctor's care since October. "We appreciate every prayer we can get. I've got everybody praying for him," Wolff said. "We'll just keep our fingers crossed and hope for a miracle."
In the "Fight of the Century" in 1971, Smokin' Joe Frazier was the first opponent to beat Muhammed Ali. The pair then went on to fight in two more glorious battles in the ring, including the historic "Thrilla in Manilla" where both boxer's claimed they gave the very best of themselves in the overwhelming heat of the capital city's arena. Joe lost both of these final epic confrontations with Ali.
For years, Frazier hated Ali for repeatedly taunting him during those competitive years. Joe still often felt the tinge of being somewhat overshadowed by his taller and more vocal adversary. More recently, Joe has publicly forgiven Ali for the way he had treated him.
Muhammed Ali has said on his battles with Frazier, "A real, real fighter; the toughest man in the world." On their famous encounter in Manilla, Ali claims that it was the closest to death he ever knew of.
"You can't mention Ali without mentioning Joe Frazier," said former boxing writer Ed Schuyler Jr. "He beat Ali, don't forget that." Ali's former promoter, Bob Arum said he was saddened by Frazier's passing. "He was such an inspirational guy. A decent guy, a man of his word," said Arum. "I'm torn up by Joe dying at this relatively young age. I can't say enough about Joe."
Frazier won the Heavyweight Title in 1970 by a 5th Round win over boxer Jimmy Ellis. Frazier then successfully defended his Title four times before finally losing to George Foreman in 1973, who knocked him down six times in the first two Rounds.
Smokin' Joe Frazier, regarded as one of the toughest boxer's ever to enter the ring with his devasting left-hook that ended many of his matches, is a true legend of the sport! Relentless against most of his opponents, Frazier combined rock-hard solid punches and focused determination to win by KO, forging himself into a truly repected boxing icon with a legion of worldwide fans in his corner.
Alas, after the final bell, his last battle was one he could not win...on Monday 11/7/2011, Joe Frazier died after a short bout with liver cancer.
Beloved around the world, Frazier will always be remembered as one of the greatest in the sport of boxing during a time that many die-hard fans refer to as the best of the Heavyweight era.

The Blackbyrds Quick ViewUNIM-FAN-0242$21.99Buy Now
The BlackbyrdsThe debut album by the American rhythm and blues/jazz-funk fusion group, The Blackbyrds, this eponymous release is the product of six full-time Howard University students taking the direction of department head and jazz great Donald Byrd into the Fantasy Studios along with the aid of production wizard Larry Mizell (Jackson 5, Gary Bartz). The end result is nothing less than stunning as the band lays down some of the tastiest groove-oriented jazz music ever recorded. With Joe Hall on bass and Keith Killgo on drums, the rhythm section anchors a solid foundation capable of keeping the dancefloor full and providing a base for the rest of the bands soulful explorations. Kevin Toney supplies supple keyboard work and Barney Perry keeps it funky on the guitar, setting the pace for what would be a genre-defining LP and a breakthrough in jazz-funk crossover. Essential listening for all fans of jazz, funk, and feel good pop music.1. Do It, Fluid

I recently got the chance to talk to Silber Records founder Brian John Mitchell about One, the beautiful experimental piece he released on CD in December under the name Small Life Form (my review of the album can be found here).
Hi Brian! How are things going over there at Silber?
Things are going pretty well. Busy trying to get everything more noticed as always.
Well, I suppose I'll start out with something I brought up in my review of the album. It would seem that a 7-track single CD is somewhat problematic format for a work where all 7 pieces are designed to be played at once. Did you consider any other release formats?
I don't really know of any format that is particularly viable for playing seven tracks simultaneously while looped. If I were to release separate items, people would need seven players, so it's problematic no matter how I do it, but with a computer you can load in all the audio for simultaneous play.
I personally took the time to rip the entire CD to .wav files and mix them in my home studio in order to properly listen to the piece. Do you have any additional/easier suggestions for playback or any ideas on how to enhance the listening experience?
Well, I rarely update my computer, so I didn't realize that in the current version of Windows Media Player you can't open files in separate windows & play them simultaneously with the tracks looped. The version that you can do that with is 6.4.09.1128, I hear you can do the same thing with QuickTime. Of course it sounds better if you have decent speakers on your computer.
It seems that One would be an interesting piece to present during an experimental electronic music concert at a venue where it is possible play each track through a separate set of speakers and experiment with speaker placement and acoustics. Have you considered a live "performance" of the piece, or is that something that is unlikely?
It would be nice to try to do something with a more permanent installation than a regular performance piece because it would be easier to get away with a certain lack of visual presence. & I would like to experiment with how the tracks interact coming from different speakers because I don't have a set-up where I can do that. However, I think a live performance would be more likely. The problem is not really replicating the sound as much as figuring out a place where people would be interested in it, because if it's just me on stage with a couple of effects & a trombone playing drawn out notes, people would get bored pretty quickly. I could either add a few players or add some lights, but I still think it would be difficult to please a traditional club audience. Jon DeRosa of Aarktica had this idea where I would go to concert recital halls & hire a few local musicians to each city I play in & mic them all & control effects & capture loops while they play a single chord type structure. The problem with that is it's really hard to break in to that kind of market. Eventually I'm sure I'll do something live, but I feel like it's a good idea to wait until I'm able to have the right situation to play in. If I could get on as an opener for Supersilent I would figure out a way to do it in a week.
One displays at least some background in the techniques of music electronique and music concrete. Could you give us a little more insight into your background in experimental music?
I've been interested in some of the classical avant garde since I was 18. I started out interested in John Cage & George Crumb & then got into Gyorgy Ligeti & Steve Reich. At the same time I was a fan of a lot of experimental rock music like Swans & Cindytalk & some Japanese noise stuff & some industrial music. So when I got into being a musician I was more interested in delay & loops & reverb than distortion. In the end all of these things are about approaching music as sound rather than something based on melody.
Could you elaborate a bit on some of the live and/or post processing techniques used on the album?
The only post-processing done on the record was some EQ-ing & some fades put on the tracks. My set up was something like microphone, tube pre-amp, Line 6 Delay Modeler, Lexicon LXP 5, Digital 8 track for mixing, EQ, & panning & sometimes I would send an effect chain back out of that into an Alesis Nanoverb & ElectroHarmonix BassBalls pedal. I don't really see the sound as having any specific tricks from an effects standpoint, it's more about just letting the sound take care of itself & not trying to control it.
Was the idea of using 7 pieces played at once something you've had in mind for a while, or was it inspired by other artists who have released CDs using similar ideas (for instance, The Flaming Lips' Zaireeka album)?
It was really inspired by my experience trying to make & mix down Small Life Form from 8 track down to stereo. When I was mixing down an old recording I'd worked on, I realized that I was losing a lot of stuff that I liked because the piece was just too dense & when I would EQ an individual track it would stand up fine on its own. So I thought I could make something with it specifically in mind to be able to work as individual parts or as a single unit. & I thought if I made it so the pieces didn't all fit together precisely & were played as loops the thing could go on forever never repeating itself & just be played as long as someone wanted, because I know I sometimes will want to listen to just a loop for a couple hours because it becomes soothing.
The piece, when all 7 tracks are played at once, has very strong rhythmic and melodic elements as well as well balanced bass and treble elements that really become an exceptionally well molded wall of sound. In fact, it seems each piece has something of a different role in balancing the makeup of the piece as a whole. Was this sonic sculpting of sorts and the well-balanced interplay of elements something that was planned, something that simply came out of the mix, or a blend of the two?
It's all pretty intentional. When I would be recording one part, I would have another one playing in the background so I could make sure they fit together. It all started with "organ" which is pretty much just a chord held down on a small organ & then I tried to have everything fit in with that to compliment it without repeating myself.
This album was 5 years in the making. Was the actual recording spread out over 5 years, or was it recorded at once and simply something you've been envisioning and brainstorming for 5 years leading up to the recording sessions?
In 1998 I started doing some pieces as Small Life Form using Sound Recorder to build loops & it really isn't meant to do what I was doing with it & couldn't give me enough control over my sounds. Around 2000 I started trying to record it on my 8 track instead & I abandoned it because I still couldn't get out the sounds I wanted really, because everything I did ended up sounding like these big walls of sound & you couldn't tell one piece from the next. One of these pieces contained "organ," "golden," & "cymbal" which I eventually pulled out individually from that larger piece. It wasn't until spring of 2003 after touring with Kobi that I could really see how to make Small Life Form be what I wanted it to be.
Will One be a standalone release, or do you have plans to continue releasing material in the future under Small Life Form? If you are planning future Small Life Form releases, what sonic shape and direction are they likely to take?
There will be more Small Life Form, though it will take a while for me to do it, because I don't want to catch myself recording the same record but 10% better or worse. I would like to do something without any recorded loops or effects, just using actual performers to get the sound, but I don't really have the ability to properly convey my ideas to other musicians yet, so that may take a few years to figure out. I also am thinking about doing something that is a remix type disc in a way. I'd make a hundred loops & send them out to some people to use to create songs from. What I want to do for the next SLF record changes every time I really think about it seriously.
The use of a vera pulsar observed through a radio telescope is obviously the least conventional as well as, arguably, the most interesting sound source found on the CD. Where did the inspiration come from to make that a part of the One recording? Do you have a background or interest in astronomy? Was it intentionally used as something of an extraterrestrial found sound of sorts, or was it merely a tool you came across that allowed you to convey a sound or certain element you wanted to express in the piece?
I can't remember how I came across it, but I found this website that had all these mp3s of different stars & planets. The Vera Pulsar one really caught my attention so I saved it onto my computer. I adjusted the pitch of it somewhat to fit into the recording for One & added a couple of effects to it & put it on the record. I think it actually has some floor tom on that track as well following the beat of the star. It wasn't important that it was a star, it was important that I liked the way it sounded.
You've also been quoted as saying that your work and that of other artists on your label is heavily influenced by 80s post-punk music. How do you feel those influences have manifested themselves in this work?
A lot of the post-punk music like Cabaret Voltaire, Joy Division, & Swans have this sound to them that really has nothing to do with the music, but more to do with atmosphere. You can almost recognize which one of those bands it is by the way the silence between the tracks sounds. It just feel like everything is very highly controlled & I like to think that I used the same amount of control on One.
Is there anything else you'd like to add?
Thank you for your interest.
Thanks very much for doing the interview. Best wishes to you and everyone over at Silber!

Because our chief constitutional right is feeling safe. That's what matters most, even more than actually being safe. In fact, we'll exchange all of our other constitutional rights for our right to feel safe, even if it means turning every American citizen into a suspected terrorist and using taxpayers' money to spy on law-abiding taxpayers (i.e., terrorists). Because you know that Facebook is just a big terrorist networking site and Twitter is just terrorist Morse code and e-mail is electronic terrorist carrier pigeon.
That word — "terrorist" — really begins to lose meaning when it's applied so loosely, but we must lock up terrorists forever — wherever and whoever they are — because terrorists violate my constitutionally-protected right to feel safe.
And I feel very safe, because I trust that the government can infallibly determine the difference between citizen suspects and terrorists, and they would never, ever, ever, ever, ever, think that I am anything but a citizen. They certainly got it right with the Japanese internment. They did a stellar job driving out the reds with the help of Joe McCarthy. They really know which rebel force or potential dictator to support in all the third-world countries we've helped.
Besides, we'd know which lists we're on, because we can fully trust the government, because the government is totally forthcoming about its lists, right?

Surgical oncology: Whipple may be the only cure for pancreatic cancer? But, it is a huge operation with many months of recovery? Go through it?
Depends: You are right, a Whipple is a big operation. Fortunately, many patients have a great outcome and the recovery is generally about 8 weeks, not always "many months". True, if you have a complication, it can take this long. It really depends how strong you are going into the operation, the anatomy of your cancer, and your cancer stage.

What are the next steps of treatment for someone with stage four pancreatic cancer?
Immunochemotherapy: Stage IV pancreatic cancer is a poor responder due to excessive Kras mutations and release of TNF which is same as cachexin causing several metabolic problems. Best approach is to begin with FOLFIERI followed by Gemzar (gemcitabine) Abraxane. New Phase IIb study will begin comparing Gemzar (gemcitabine)/Abrtaxane vs. Gemzar (gemcitabine) Abraxane with a monoclonal antibody targeting the immunogenic protein found in pancreatic cancer. ...Read more
What is the surgical treatment of pancreatic cancer?
Resection: There are basically two types of surgery for pancreatic cancer: as mentioned, tumors in the head of the pancreas are removed by resection of the head of the pancreas, duodenum, and distal bile duct (the whipple); tumors in the body and tail are removed by distal pancreatectomy, often with splenectomy. All pancreatic resections should be performed at high volume centers by high volume surgeons. ...Read more
How might myasthenia gravies complicate treatment for pancreatic cancer?
IS COMPLEX: Myasthenia gravis affects the connection btwn nerve and muscle, and control is achieved by dealing with an autoimmune process. If surgery is to be done, oral meds will need to be held, and postop respiratory failure may occur especially if surgery requires a neuro-muscular blocking agent. Some anesthetics can worsen myasthenia, chemotherapy may be tough. A skilled neurologist needs to be nearby. ...Read more

Recuperating from pancreatic cancer and was advised to change from pan crease to pancrelipase. Is that favorable treatment?
Yes: Recuperating means treatment other than chemo. If Whipple performed the duct of the pancreas was implanted into the bowel to allow enzymes to pass into the GI tract. The amt of enzyme for digestion is usually low and one needs both the proteins and fat digested with the add of bile from the liver/GB. The pancrelipase provides that function. ...Read more
Are there any effective treatment for pancreatic cancer (pancrease (pancrelipase) head)?

Hi, if pet scan results for pancreatic cancer are negative after treatment is this mean that the patient was recovered completely?
No: The medical definition of a cure is usually no cancer present for 5 years after the end of treatment. PET scans can miss small tumors and can also give a falsely negative results for other reasons.

Palliative Care: Survival rates are most appropriately applied to large groups of patients; it's impossible to give such a number for one person, especially without knowing his own unique situation. As a generalization, it is very difficult to completely eradicate cancer in that setting.

#DraganPejanović #ElectoralRoll #GoranDanilović #GeneralElections #MinistryOfInterior
Although the fate of the electoral roll ahead of parliamentary elections on 16 October seemed uncertain, since the opposition minister in the government of electoral trust Goran Danilovic refused to sign it, the problem is solved.
The government has unanimously authorised the Interior Ministry secretary Dragan Pejanovic to make a decision on electoral roll conclusion.
The government conformed to CDM that Danilovic himself voted for the decision. However, he denied that at an extraordinary press conference.
"I left the session before the vote. It could be expected that I will not vote", he said.
Danilovic had earlier refused to sign the electoral roll on the grounds that he cannot do that because more than 100,000 out of the total 529,000 voters have been registered at different polling stations in comparison to previous elections.
However, each voter can check what polling station they are registered in by calling the number 19820 or by visiting the website biraci.me.
Danilovic previously tested AFIS, or the electronic voter identification system, which will be applied on the elections on 16 October for the first time. The test showed that there are 102 people in the electoral roll whose fingerprints matched with someone else's.
How this electoral roll is different from the previous one will be known tomorrow.
Dragan Pejanovic told CDM that he was waiting for the government to formally authorise him to sign the electoral register.
"It will happen today, after which I will send the decision to the State Election Commission (SEC)", he said.
In addition, the Interior Ministry is now working on the "electoral roll numerical spreadsheet".
"This means that we are analysing the changes by local units, but also as a whole, compared to the electoral register used for the previous parliamentary elections in 2012. The media will get the information tomorrow", Pejanovic told CDM.
Danilovic will not be fined
Danilovic risked to be fined up to €2,000 due to the refusal to sign the electoral roll, the SEC confirmed for CDM. However, he will not be fined.
Article 35 of the law stipulates that "responsible person in the ministry shall be fined €1,500–€2,000, if the decision on the electoral roll conclusion is not submitted to the State Election Commission within the period prescribed by Article 18, paragraph 4 of the Law on Electoral Roll". Given that the electoral roll was completed on 5 October 2016 at midnight, and that the deadline for submitting the decision on the electoral register conclusion has not expired yet, the conditions for applying Article 35 of the law have not been fulfilled, the SEC told CDM.

How to open a German bank account
A simple step-by-step guide on how to open a bank account in Germany. Open an online Germany bank account and documents required to open a German Bank accountRead More
English Information about Banking in Germany
For a car enthusiast, Germany is the land of good cars and no-speed limit Autobahns to ride them on. Therefore, it is only natural if you would want to own a car here, may it be for work or pleasure. Buying a car when you move to Germany may be one of your obvious option rather than shipping your car from home country.
This article provides information about various options for financing a car and how you get a car loan in Germany and finally able to compare between various car financing calculators.
There are few options of having a car in Germany, and buying may not be only one. Therefore, it might be worthwhile to check other options of getting a car in Germany. Some of the options are explained below.
1. Mobility package (Mobilitätspakete) : Designed towards expats who might be on deputation or on a project in Germany, the mobility package is similar to leasing package. However, they are for a shorter period of time such as six months or a year.
2. Car Leasing or Rental : The user can lease a car for a longer period of term, usually about 3 to 5 years. This is mostly used by professionals who are provided the car by work, therefore allowing them to deduct the monthly costs of payment as business expenses.
3. Car Leasing with an option to buy at the end of lease term: This is a new concept where a leased car user has an option at the end of the period if he wants to pay the rest of the cost and buy the car. Ideal for users who are indecisive if they want to own the car but would like to try it for a few months before deciding to buy it.
4. Car Loan with fixed monthly payment (Ratenkauf): this is the classic type of car purchase where the person makes a basic down-payment and then a monthly payment of the loan installment for the car.
For the first three options, you can check with the various dealers of your favorite car brands if they provide such an offer. You can also check online car sales websites such as 12neuwagen.de who are usually cheaper than the normal dealers and provides you with the costs for each model of the car for the various financing options.
Approaching the dealer and discussing with him will be the easiest option as they usually have collaboration with the banks or financing agencies and will be able to get you the car financing loan and do all the paperwork. Even in case of used cars from dealers, they will be able to obtain the loans. However, if you are buying a used cars directly from someone and would want to get it financed, you will have to approach the financing institutions of banks directly. The general requirements for buying a car through financing in Germany are
Credit Score : As a foreigner living in Germany or a short period it is possible that you still do not have a credit score in Germany. However, this can be overcome if you are able to prove that you have a stable job and regular monthly income. For this is is important that you can provide three payslips from work.
Down-payment : Usually you will be asked to make a down payment for the loan to make the car purchase upfront. The higher the initial payment for the car loan, the easier it is to get a loan, the lower the interest rate and the lesser the monthly payment. In general, the best interest rates are offered when a 20 percent down payment is made.
Repayment time : Depending on the price of the car, the financing can range from period of 24 to 60 months. However, for a foreigner, it must also be considered that the residence permit has enough validity till the end of prepayment period before requesting for a loan.
Apart from the various financial institutions and banks that provide loans, there are other specialised banks and institutions which provide car financing.
Automobile Manufactures Banks : There are specialist banks by the car manufacturers such as Volkswagen bank, BMW Bank, Audi Bank, Mercedes Bank etc which have a collaboration with the car dealers and specialize in providing car loans for their house brands.
Other Options for Car Financing : If you still are unable to get a loan from any of the auto-financing institutions or the banks, then you can also try to apply for a loan through peer-to-peer lending such as Smava orLendico. They are easier to obtain personal loans for the purpose of buying a car and the interest rate depends on your credit score. You can still obtain a loan without a credit score in institutions like Maxda, but with a higher interest rate.
Below is a car finance calculator where you can compare between various auto financing providers for car loans in Germany. Please note that these are general loan providers who also provide auto financing. However, there are specialist banks by the car manufacturers such as Volkswagen bank, BMW Bank, Audi Bank, Mercedes Bank etc which have a collaboration with the car dealers and specialize in providing car loans for their house brands.
Another way for investors to get in the gold investing game is to
invest through an Exchange-Traded Funds, or ETF.
However, it is important to understand what spot price is in order to make
smart investments. During tough as well as good economic times, gold has retained its reputation as
a safe investment option.

A neighbouring industry that recently became an important partner to Korea is China. Ever since the signing of the Korea-China
Co-production Agreement in July of this year during XI Jinping's visit to Korea, the two industries didn't waste any time in starting to work together. Educational subsidiary of the Korean Film Council (Chairman KIm Eui-suk, KOFIC), the Korean Academy of Film Arts (KAFA) has held its fourth year of a program called Global China Pre-Biz Program for filmmakers interested in entering the Chinese film industry. As China looks highly of Korean film industry's planning, production, and human resources, Korean filmmakers also look positively into entering the neighbour's industry. Especially at this year's Pre-Biz Program, directors and producers who have worked with or are working on projects with China participated in the session, providing valuable and substantial help to those attending the event. The session was held from November 9th until the 13th for fi

I've been going to a lot of dance aerobic classes lately, like Zumba. My cross trainers or running shoes have decent support, but they don't allow me to move my feet like I want to. I also often have sore shins and minor knee problems, which my instructor says might be because of my shoes.
Does anyone have any suggestions about brands or types of shoes to look for? They are so expensive, I don't want to spend another $50+ with no real improvement.
By the way, dance aerobics is a great way to lose weight and get fit. I never managed to enjoy traditional aerobics, but dancing makes the time fly by! I'm totally hooked.

I used to have a roommate that worked in a sports shop. She fit me for running shoes. My knees had been bothering me & she looked at how my current sneakers had worn down. By doing that, she told me "I needed a stabilizer" So the sneaker I got had very stiff ridges by the heels, which prevented my foot from sort of rolling. It made a huge difference for my knees. That being said, really I would go to a sports shop and see if you can find a knowledgeable sales person. And yes I agree, the sneakers are very expensive but its cheaper than knee surgery! Take care & keep dancing
Are you allowed to go barefoot? I have experienced the happiest, healthiest feet in years since I have increased barefoot time. I found shoes that feel like barefoot to wear to work. If not, your best bet is probably shoes that are intended for court sports, they are designed for changes in direction and movements side to side.
I concur with the advice already given. Go to a shoe store where the clerks actually know something about shoes, and feet are measured, and there are different kinds of shoes for different activities. I don't believe barefoot is the way to go for dance aerobics. It might be worth your while to go to a foot specialist and see what he says with regard to your sore knees and shins. I don't think you should be experiencing any pain at all unless you have a pre-existing condition. Of course, here is Canada, cost is not a factor, so if it is, you may have equally good results in a good shoe store. I'd expect you would have to pay over $100 for good shoes, though. You get what you pay for. Look for sales.
@Jilson - I do go barefoot all the time at home and I also take bellydancing which is done barefooted. But I think I would need more support than that for these high impact classes.
To all, thanks for the good ideas. I will definitely mention the knee/shin pain to my doctor on my next visit (which I should arrange sooner than later). My fitness instructor recommended New Balance as her favorite type of shoes and recommended that I never buy Nike but I'm sure that all shoe companies have their own advocates. I'll let you know what my shoe shopping adventures lead to and if I find a good brand of shoe for my feet.
