I came across this quote today, and it really just stuck with me…
"Here's to strong women, may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them."
It got me thinking about all the strong women that surround me; women who shaped me into who I am today. I can not but be grateful to every single one of them.
I can still hear the principle at the school I used to attend telling us "you are young ladies. You have the potential to be great and to change the world. It all starts and ends with you."
Mind you, it was an all girls school, in a very patriarchal country at the time.
What our principle meant was that we were our own masters; we make our own choices.. and we have the power to influence those of generations to come, given that someday we might become mothers. It is up to us to plant the seeds of female strength and independence in the minds of our future little ones, be it boys or girls.
To many of you this is pointless, since we are living in a world were women have got their independence, but places, in many corners of the earth, where women are not truly free still exist.
I won't go far with my example… I will talk about myself.
I come from a country where females are supposedly independent and free in a lot of life's aspects, but they can never escape the patriarchal mark that is engraved in the society.
I can not explain the pride and support my parents radiated when I told them I wanted to become a doctor, but the phrases and comments I got from the surrounding was quite different.
There was one comment I got that tagged along with me all those years: "you will never finish medical school. You will get married, get pregnant, and have to stay home to raise your kids".
Do not get me wrong, I think the most challenging, beautiful and for that matter, the hardest 'job' to ever do is to be a stay at home mom.
I salute every woman, including my mom, who has chosen this life for themselves. You are strong in so many ways that I can never be.
What I did though, during the following years, is I ventured to prove this person wrong, and when I graduated I went up to him and told him "I guess you were mistaken about me.. I graduated".
Yes, I did get married along the way, to the most awesome man alive. A man who understands me, and my stubborn 'feminist' side who wants to prove herself, and who actually is crazy enough to support me through it all.
After medical school came the choice for my residency. What kind or type of doctor do I want to become?
It was not difficult for me to know that I wanted to become a surgeon. I simply find myself inside an OR.
Do not get me started on all the negative remarks I got from my surrounding, excluding my close family. Remarks on the lines of "when will you have time for your family? How will you raise your kids?" and so on…
The fact that my husband was a neurosurgeon in training did not help.. it just gave everyone more reason to believe they can give me their 'unasked for' opinions about 2 surgeons in one household, and the bad influence it has on any future family to be.
Ironically though, it is turning out to be great!
I started my residency program in paediatric surgery, and I have decided to specialise in paediatric orthopaedic surgery.
All the negative comments and opinions that were given to me simply fuelled me up to prove everyone wrong.
Life is simply beautiful.
I know that many challenges still lie ahead.. but I am confident that I will be able to overcome them all with the support I have from my close family members and my husband, who believe in me, and push me harder to believe in myself.
All I can only hope for is that one day, if I was blessed enough to have a daughter, I will be able to raise her to be a strong, fierce, independent woman with the most tender, caring, and empathic heart. To make her understand that she has the power to choose her paths in life, and that no one can change that. Just the way my mother raised me… Independent and free.

Paul: there are no new posts to keep me coming back for more :(
Halloween is coming fast! You only have 8 months left to come up with a costume. Here is a design for a very good Halloween costume: internet porn. Get a box and cut a hole for head and arms. Get a nice picture of boobies and censor them. Short skirt and hooker boots would make nice accessories. Be creative and make a keyboard and mouse out of cardboard. Feel free to add extra things: make an ipod porn costume for your dog!
If you use this costume idea, please send pictures of you wearing it so I can post them round Halloween!

If you decide to wear this for Halloween I will have to go as my zone alarm's web management filter and prevent you from going out that night!

2 organic skinless-boneless chicken breasts
50g organic ricotta cheese
50g organic baby spinach
1 large shallot, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp coconut oil, grass-fed butter or ghee

Black pepper
1/8-1/4 cup sprouted spelt flour (or flour of choice)
4 slices of organic nitrate-free bacon
What to do:
-Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F
-Prepare the chicken breast by making a horizontal cut through the centre of the breast - lengthwise, be careful and ensure you do not puncture the breast.
-Use your fingers to stretch out the horizontal cut that you made in each breast, to create a larger cave for stuffing the ricotta mixture.
-Heat a pan over medium heat, adding 1 tbsp of coconut oil, butter or ghee and the minced shallot. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the shallot has caramelized, then add in the paprika, himalayan salt, pepper, ricotta and spinach.

-Remove from heat
-Using a small teaspoon, begin stuffing the chicken with the ricotta mix, be careful not to overstuff. It is ok if there is leftovers, as they will be utilized!
-After stuffing, gently reform the chicken breast and press down where the cut has been made and the ricotta has been stuffed.
-Lightly dust with sprouted spelt flour and then proceed to wrap with 2 slices of organic bacon per chicken breast
-Add to a greased baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes until juices from the chicken run clear, in the meantime prepare the asparagus and mushrooms.
What to do:
-Preheat oven to 400 degrees F

What you need:
2 bunches asparagus, woody ends of stalks removed
1 lemon, juiced
5 cloves garlic, pressed
1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
Himalayan salt
Black pepper
What to do:
-Melt butter or ghee in a medium pan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook for 7-10 minutes until juices have released, reduce heat and continue to cook for 3-5 minutes until mushrooms have browned.

A new national accounting of exonerations puts Wisconsin among the top states in convicting innocent defendants of serious crimes. But that ranking tells only part of the story, a state expert in wrongful convictions said.
The study released earlier this month tallied at least 2,000 exonerations nationwide, including 21 in Wisconsin since 1989 when DNA testing came into use.
The National Registry of Exonerations, compiled by University of Michigan Law School and Northwestern University, found that Wisconsin's rate of wrongful convictions was 30 percent higher than the national average. That rate put Wisconsin in eighth place among states.
But Keith Findley, co-director of the Wisconsin Innocence Project, said one of the factors leading to the higher rate is the existence of the Innocence Project, which operates out of UW-Madison Law School.
"When you look, you find them (wrongful convictions)," Findley said. "When you don't look, you don't find them."
Illinois — which has an active innocence project at the Center for Wrongful Convictions at Northwestern University — had the highest rate, with 2.8 times the national average of exonerations. The report lists 101 exonerations in Illinois over the past 23 years.
The next highest number of wrongful convictions was in New York, home to the national Innocence Project at Cardozo Law School, with 88.
And the third highest was 84 exonerations in Texas, where Findley noted that Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins has been proactive in seeking out and remedying such cases.
The report released in conjunction with the new registry tallies 873 individuals freed after their convictions were overturned. In addition, the report documents mass exonerations of at least 1,170 people as the result of police scandals, primarily involving officers who planted drugs, guns or gave false testimony to frame defendants.
Among the exonerees in the registry is Audrey Edmunds, 51, who spent nearly 12 years in prison after she was convicted in Dane County Circuit Court in the death of a 7-month-old girl at her home day care. Edmunds, of Waunakee, was released in 2008 after the Wisconsin Innocence Project presented medical evidence not available when she was convicted in 1996 that raised serious doubts about the cause of Natalie Beard's death.
Edmunds said she is grateful for the attention that has been focused on wrongful convictions, particularly those involving so-called "shaken-baby syndrome." That diagnosis has come under increasing scrutiny from experts and others who say the telltale symptoms of shaken-baby syndrome also can be seen in children who die from natural causes or old injuries.
Now living in Lakeville, Minn., Edmunds said she relishes the time with her three daughters after spending most of their growing-up years in prison. Last week she helped her middle daughter, Allie, get ready for her high school prom.
"It's just great that more and more people are recognizing the wrongfully convicted," she said.
Findley said Wisconsin's exoneration rate, although high, does not mean defendants are worse off here. He noted that unlike in some states, Wisconsin defendants can ask for post-conviction DNA testing, even if a prosecutor opposes it. That factor also could lead to higher exoneration rates, he said.
"I doubt that (high rate) is a reflection that our criminal justice system is that much worse than other jurisdictions," Findley said. "In some respects, it's better. But we do have our share of wrongful convictions."

2 December 2015 (fighting Kibos)
Diamond and Stephen gather over the hatch, David keeps an eye out behind, and Thorfin hauls it open while Diamond and Stephen shoot down into the mass of zombies. Diamond's pistol fire seems relatively ineffective, so she switches to head shots. One zombie starts trying to climb the ladder.
At this point the hatchway is swallowed by darkness, that even Diamond's goggles can't penetrate (at least outside the reality bubble that she's put up). She flies down, only to find her leg grabbed by the zombie on the ladder, which
apparently still see. Stephen jumps down, blindly hitting a zombie as he falls but keeping his balance. Diamond flies up into the light again, dragging the zombie with her and shooting its head as she goes.
Stephen is grappled and bitten by zombies, but concentrates on blindly firing towards where the chanting is coming from. Diamond flies down again, searching for Stephen, and starts to shoot the zombies off him. She then picks him up, and they head for the altar as he reloads; they're hit by a lightning bolt on the way. Thorfin drops into the mass of zombies, landing badly, but his armour takes the brunt of the blow.
David shoots blindly into the darkness, hitting Stephen, though Stephen's armour takes it. As Diamond drops Stephen onto the altar, she finds she's impinging on another reality bubble; she chooses to invoke a reality storm. Stephen's caught up in it, but keeps up a barrage of gunfire on the enchanter.
A zombie climbs out to attack David, but disintegrates as it touches
reality bubble. David climbs down to take care of the others.
As the reality storm dies away, Stephen shoots the enchanter one last time, and he's no longer able to use possibility energy to redirect the attack.
The darkness vanishes; the zombies collapse. The remaining cultists seem to have been drained of possibility energy by the storm.
On a table, mixed with ritual equipment, are a map and a page torn out of a journal. The map shows the local area, with a line drawn from Belmopan to Flores in Guatemala, and then on to Tikal. The page is hard to read and rambling, but seems to imply that the writer is searching for the Darkness Device of Earth, which he thinks is in Tikal – but first he needs the Palenque Vase from a museum in Flores.

Discuss the Relationship Between Media and Information Technology
The term Media' could today be defined as a collective term for television, radio, cinema and the press. The media are nowadays often discussed as a single entity, because of their combined importance as providers of entertainment and information, their presumed power to mould public opinion and set standards and the growth of cross-ownership among the various sectors. The word was however, originally derived from (i.e. is the plural of) the word medium', which suggested a medium for the transfer of information. Media are channels through which information is transmitted or through which communication takes place.
In a similar way, Information Technology' could be described as a term commonly used to cover the range of technologies relevant to the transfer of information, in particular to computers, digital electronics and telecommunications.
So, in relation the brief descriptions outlined above, it's possible to say that there is already a certain connection between the two terms in that they are both involved in the transfer of information to some extent. However, this is a very broad description and so, for the purpose of this discussion, specified aspects of Media and Information Technology will be examined in order to discover any less tenuous relationships and any pros and cons discussed.
The past 18 months has seen an explosion of innovation relating the internet to the more traditional media. Technology such as the E-Book, Internet Television, Internet Radio coupled with the fact that so many printed magazines, newspapers and journals now also have a presence on-line has shown that the trend seems to be for convergence. Media and Information Technology have entered an era where technological changes are removing many of the distinctions between telecommunications, broadcasting and IT. Consumers can watch television programmes on their computers, send emails from their television sets and access the internet from their mobile phones.
E-books for example, have received a lot of press coverage of late and when Stephen King successfully published and sold two of his new stories on the internet, the publishing world began to take notice. King's Riding the Bullet, which sold more than 400,000 copies in the first day1 showed the potential for books to be released in a digitised form on the internet rather than only in print. Steven King is not the only famous author to experiment with E-books. As a result of his success, the authors Douglas Adams, Fay Weldon and Frederic Forsyth have all vowed to follow suit2.
The release of these E-books coincides with the release of numerous portable, hand-held reading devices such as the Hewlett Packard Journada Pocket PC and the Nuvomedia Rocket e-book. These devices are capable of holding several titles in their memory and can have other features such as access to the internet, spreadsheets, digital music players and even some games. E-books can be downloaded directly to these devices via a personal computer from a growing number of e-book providers such as Glassbook.com or e-bookcity.com.
As discussed above then, there is a relationship between the medium of the book and the information technology pertaining to the internet and the technology involved in creating portable reading devices. Books are now available on the internet and are being designed for hand-held readers. However, there are disadvantages of e-books and their portable readers:
Battery Power The e-book reader will be useless as a book with no text if the battery runs out in mid sentence. The Rocket e-book for example has a battery life of only a few hrs. The cost The e-book readers all cost upwards of £150 and then there is the additional charge to download books. Sunshine Certain e-books such as the HP Journada become almost useless in bright sunshine due to glare and...

Your Pet's Surgery in Austin
Skilled and Compassionate Care
When Your Pet Needs it Most
When your pet needs surgery, you can have confidence the veterinarians and medical team at our veterinary clinic in Austin work hard to ensure each procedure is completed according to the highest surgical standards and is as comfortable and stress-free as possible for your pet.
Surgical Procedures for Your Pet
Our highly skilled, experienced veterinarians perform many types of surgeries, including but not limited to:
We understand the decision to allow your pet to undergo surgery is never easy. To that end, we're happy to answer any questions regarding your pet's surgery. Your veterinarian will also provide you with information on proper postoperative care. It's our goal to ensure you feel comfortable in knowing you made the right choice for your pet.
Personalized Veterinary Anesthesia
Ensuring the health and safety of your pet during surgery is our utmost concern and requires an anesthetic and monitoring regimen that adheres to the highest principles and ideals of quality care. We utilize a multi-parameter monitoring and anesthesia system to ensure your pet's safety during all surgeries.
Prior to surgery your pet is examined and a pre-surgical blood screen is performed. The results of these tests and your pet's past anesthetic history, breed, preexisting conditions and age are used to create an individualized anesthesia protocol.
During surgery your pet is cared for by a well-trained, experienced veterinary technician using our state-of-the-art monitoring system which tracks blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, body temperature and oxygen level.
Comprehensive Pain Management
We all know pain hurts, but pain also has many other detrimental effects on your pet's body. Pain slows healing, decreases activity and causes behavioral changes such as aggression, anxiety and depression. Pain worsens diseases like arthritis and potentially some cancers. It also interferes with the bond between you and your pet.
As part of our commitment to keep your pet comfortable and protect the bond you share, we practice the most up-to-date, comprehensive pain management protocol. For surgeries as well as for acute and chronic conditions we use all our available and safe resources, including local anesthetics, NSAIDs (non-steroidal medications) and oral and injectable analgesics for the complete comfort of your pet.
Healing Postoperative Care for Your Pet
Following surgery, your pet is closely monitored and cared for by our attentive medical staff for a safe recovery. As your pet is being discharged from the hospital, you will be provided with detailed information on how to administer any medication and properly care for your pet after surgery. We're also happy to answer any questions or concerns that may arise after you and your pet return home.
For more information about the veterinary surgical services Anderson Mill Animal Clinic offers for your pet or to schedule an appointment, please call (512) 258-4163.

Iraqi security forces liberated Akashat town area and cleared the surrounding desert land from Islamic State (IS) militants near the border with Syria, the Iraqi military said.
The Iraqi army, paramilitary Hashd Shaabi forces and the border guards on Saturday completely recaptured Akashat and reopened a nearby strategic road, Lt. Gen. Abdul Amir Yarallah from the Iraqi Joint Operations Command (JOC) said in a brief statement.
The operation is still underway to clear more areas from IS militants in Iraq's western province of Anbar, Yarallah said.
The latest advance is part of an operation launched in the early morning aimed at driving out IS militants from vast desert area to free the industrial village of Akashat and to clear the road to the village and the nearby border areas, Xinhua news agency reported.
In a separate statement, the Hashd Shaabi said the troops liberated Akashat area after they destroyed IS defensive lines there, which was used by IS militants as a corridor to move between Syria and Iraq, leaving many IS militants killed and wounded in the area.
The Iraqi forces announced a radio frequency to broadcast the news and instructions to the residents of the towns and villages in the area, JOC said in another statement.
The Iraqi aircraft also dropped thousands of leaflets in Akashat and the nearby cities of Aana, Rawa and al-Qaim near the border with Syria to inform the people that the liberation is soon and to tell IS militants to choose either to surrender and get a fair trial, or to get killed by the security forces.

DiMarzio DP182 Fast Track 2
DP182 Fast Track 2, ピックアップ from DiMarzio belonging to the DP182 Fast Track 2 model.
Price engine
DiMarzio DP182 Fast Track 2 : racerevlon のユーザーレビュー (content in English)
"Turn your strat into a metal machine!!"
For the longest time I've had a fundamental divide. My favorite bridge humbucker has been the Dimarzio Super 3 for a long time. I've always loved Strats. Not Fat Strats, mind you (with an actual humbucker in the bridge), but classic Strats. Leave it to Dimarzio to provide a pickup that fits in the space of a single-coil, but has the output to bring the Stratocaster into the hard rock and metal arenas. Dimarzio claims the Fast Track 2 bears a strong resemblance to the Super 3, and once I installed one in the bridge of a newer Strat I got, I became a believer. Now my Strat can do everything from cleans and blues, to classic rock tones, to full-on shred and metal. With 321 mV of output, 18.07 Kohm DC Resistance, and a B/M/T curve of 7.5/8.0/5.0 it would be easy to think this pickup would be too muddy, but that's not the case. The Fast Track 2 has a great punch, nice mid-range grind, and plenty of top-end to be balanced but not veer into ice-pick territory. It does its humbucker big-brother proud. I installed the Fast Track 2 in an ESP LTD M203 with a Fast Track 1 in the Middle and a Chopper in the neck (reviews to come). The Fast Track 2 does full-force assault in the bridge position but changes character nicely when switched to position 4. This is something I figured I would have to compromise with a pickup with so much output and bass/mid push but I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only does it clean up fairly well on its own, but that it does even better when coil-split with the middle pickup. If you have the dilemma that I did, you like playing Strats AND you like playing metal, the Dimarzio Fast Track 2 pickup just may be the solution to your internal struggle. Now you don't have to be Yngwie or use massive overdrive/distortion pedals to shred up a strat. Probably 80% of full-sized humbuckers don't have the output that the Fast Track 2 has. It's for real, make no mistake.

Jose Canseco is a former ball player, steroid user, barroom brawler, best-selling author and whistleblower.
His latest role is that of defendant in a Miami-Dade County courtroom where he and his twin brother, Ozzie, are fending off claims they injured two California men during a South Beach bar fight.
Their civil trial began Monday with jury selection.
Canseco's name returned to the spotlight earlier this year after he penned a tell-all book about the alleged widespread steroid use in Major League Baseball. But his name has been a regular on Miami-Dade courtroom dockets since the 2001 Halloween bar fight that left two convention-goers from California with bloody faces.
In court documents, Christian Presley claims he suffered a broken nose, and his colleague, Alan Cheeks claims his lip was busted so severely he could no longer play the sax. Both men are seeking an undisclosed amount for their injuries and punitive damages.
Most of Canseco's recent legal woes stem from the skirmish in South Beach's Opium Garden. The Havana-born twins have said they grudgingly pleaded guilty to aggravated battery charges only to spare their family the grief of a criminal trial. Both brothers were given three years' probation.
But Jose Canseco violated his probation within a year by leaving Florida for several weeks and failing to take anger-management classes. He served 30 days in jail in 2003. Months later, the former slugger traded his ball uniform for red jailhouse garb once again when he tested positive for steroids during a drug test as part of his probation. He served nine weeks in jail and was ordered to house arrest.
On Monday, the 40-year-old twins returned to court appearing like bulging bookends as their civil attorney, Robert Saunooke, sat between them. The brothers flashed identical smiles toward the prospective 40 jurors. Some said they were big fans.

The purpose of Westbrook's Outreach Ministry is to be the hands and feet of Christ to the Lost, the Least and the Left Out.
"… to serve in the areas of evangelism, compassion and justice both locally and internationally." Based on Ezekial 34:16
We hope that those we serve will see His face & and that as we reach out we will become more Christ-like ourselves and understand who He calls us to be. Our ministry is focused on our church body and the community at large – locally, regionally and globally based on the call of Acts 1:8… individuals and organizations in need. We do this through core relationships and through outreach ministry partners. We desire to encourage and support outreach passions that Westbrook members hold, especially by coordinating response for urgent needs that may arise (i.e. disaster, special projects).
Contact us if you're interested in being involved with Westbrook's Outreach program.

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord watches over you—
the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
This is a really common bible passage within the Christian community. It's been in my mind for the last few weeks. In the 1990's there was even a popular song sung during church services which took its inspiration from this Psalm. I love mountains and I love being out in the countryside. There's something about these open and large open spaces where it feels humans have had less influence and where it's easier to sense the presence of our Creator.
It's nice to imagine being on a mountain, lifting up my eyes, and communing with God. It's even better to do it.
But is that what the writer means?
I was taking time out in a coffee shop in the early hours of the yesterday morning waiting for a friend to join me. This is usually a moment of oasis before we both need to go to our respective workplaces. In my mind were all the bigger projects, plan, issues and challenges my role brings. It felt overwhelming as my mind was arranging all the parts, shaping and re-shaping the project steps ahead. These felt like insurmountable mountains in front of me.
Then it clicked.
"I lift my eyes up to the mountains, where does my help come from".
I was staring square at all the mountains my reality brings before me. These are the mountains. But still, where does my help come from.
"My help comes from the Lord, the maker of Heaven and Earth"
The writer is not talking about escapism and wishing he was elsewhere. He's not saying if only he was elsewhere he could escape and receive relief from his maker.
He's making a declaration and declaring a truth. "I'm looking square at all the issues before me. My help comes from the Lord, the maker of Heaven and Earth"
The Lord is with us as we face our mountains. He will help us.
Obviously, to add the disclaimer, he not saying that we will always get our way, he's not saying he will always back our position, he's not saying we will always win the argument and that he will help us do that. He is saying he will help us navigate and that he will be with us.
If you've not asked Jesus to be your LORD and Saviour in your life just yet, why wait, now is the time. He will be with you. As you face your mountains in life, He will help you. He's the best person in my life.

Justice Rehnquist dies
Posted Sep 03, 2005 in Events, Health, Politics.
After a long battle with thyroid cancer, Chief Justice William Hubbs Rehnquist has died. A staunch conservative, Rehnquist was against school desegregation and abortion rights, and for capital punishment and school prayer.
It is almost certain that President Bush will ensure Rehnquist's replacement as Chief Justice will be equally conservative - probably Antonin Scalia, with some new conservative blood for the vacant position. This will leave the Supreme Court leaning far to the right for many years to come, and the nation will soon enter a period of Sauron-like darkness.

Never underestimate the impact contributions make in helping provide a more secure retirement.
Major U.S. stock indexes struggled through what was for the Dow (down about 5.5%) and S&P 500 (off 4.8%) their worst January since 2009. The tech-laden NASDAQ dropped nearly 8%, and a recent headline proclaimed: "Almost everything lost value in January" — including, as it turns out, average 401(k) balances.
However, the damage was muted by contributions. The nonpartisan Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) estimates that the average account balance of younger, less-tenured (age 25-34, with 1-4 years of tenure) workers shed 2.0% in January.
The average balance of older workers, notably those with 20-29 years of tenure, aged 55-64, which tends to be more sensitive to market swings due to those workers' larger account balances, also lost ground, but "only" 2.2%. The accounts of younger, less tenured workers are more likely to be influenced by contribution flows.
2015 Gains
EBRI's estimates of the annual change in average account balances for 2015 revealed an increase of 22.6% among younger, less-tenured (age 25-34, with 1-4 years of tenure) workers, though older workers — specifically those with 20-29 years of tenure, aged 55-64 — rose 2.4%.
The EBRI/ICI database includes demographic, contribution, asset allocation and loan and withdrawal activity information for millions of participants. EBRI has produced estimates of the cumulative changes in average account balances — both as a result of contributions and investment returns — for several combinations of participant age and tenure.
You can access reports of both cumulative and monthly average account changes here.

Jumellea pandurata Schltr. 1916 GROUP 6
Flower Closeup
Side View of Flower Photo courtesy of Ian Chung
Common Name The Lute Shaped Jumellea
Flower Size 1.8" [4.5 cm]
Found in Madagascar on basalt rocks at elevations around 1200 meters as a small sized, warm to cool growing lithphyte or epiphyte with an erect stem carrying numerous, ligulate, coriaceous, rigid leaves that blooms in the spring on an axillary, [7 to 8 cm] long, 1 to few flowered inflorescence enveloped basally by 2 to 3 sheaths. This species and J densifoliata are quite similar and may be synomonous and if so then this name J panduata takes precedence as it was described earlier.

The Publication of the Annual Examinations Results
On Tuesday 12th July at noon the results of the Annual Examinations were posted at the Central Mail Office of the MaltaPost. It was a relatively long process of correcting, checking, inputting marks, printing and enveloping. Thanks to our teachers and secretarial staff, this laborious exercise was completed efficiently as scheduled.
We congratulate all those students who worked hard throughout all the scholastic year and were well prepared for these examinations.
Once again we take this opportunity to wish you all a restful summer holidays. Enjoy your holidays with your parents, play games, visit your relatives and spend time by the seaside. At the same time, keep busy at home and help out your parents with some chores. Employ some time in reading books, do some revision work, watch interesting documentaries on TV or DVDs, and do some voluntary work within the community. We also encourage you to attend one of our SDC MUSEUM Centre or any other Youth Centre in your village.
From time to time give a look to this site to keep in touch with the latest news and information.

At any rate, in countries like the Philippines where bodies of water are just a few hours away, seafood restaurants abound. If you're treating your S.O. to a Valentine's dinner in Makati, here are our picks for the best seafood places in the city.
Boon Tong Kee
Address: 3/F Power Plant Mall, 28 Plaza Drive, Rockwell, Makati City
Opening Hours: 11:00 A.M. – 9:00 P.M. (Monday – Thursday), 11:00 A.M. – 10:00 P.M. (Friday), 10:00 A.M. – 10:00 P.M. (Saturday), 10:00 A.M. – 9:00 P.M. (Sunday)
Telephone Number(s): (+63 2) 890-0160
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BTK.philippines/
Boon Tong Kee is a Singaporean restaurant famous for their dimsum, pork buns, and chicken dishes. However, they also offer mouthwatering seafood like deep fried prawns, seafood sambal, and fish fillet. The place isn't easily crowded, and the tables and seats are small, making it perfect for intimate occasions like romantic dinner dates.
Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.
Address: 2/F Greenbelt 3, Ayala Center, Makati City
Opening Hours: 11:00 A.M. – 12:00 M.N. (Monday – Thursday), 11:00 A.M. – 1:00 A.M. (Friday – Saturday), 11:00 A.M. – 12:00 M.N. (Sunday)
Telephone Number(s): (+63 2) 757-5154
E-mail: email@example.com
Website: http://www.bubbagump.com.ph/home/
If you and/or your S.O. loved "Forrest Gump," you'll love this restaurant. True to its name, the restaurant is designed to make you feel as though you're dining inside a fishing boat. Their steamed clams and mussels are amazing, and their seafood jambalaya will literally spice up the romantic atmosphere.
Also, if you need to call a waiter, all you have to do is flip the blue sign from "Run Forrest Run" to "Stop Forrest Stop." Pretty cool concept, right?
Ming Kee Live Seafood
Address: 7852 Makati Ave., Barangay Poblacion, Makati City
Opening Hours: 11:00 A.M. – 2:00 P.M., 6:00 P.M. – 10:00 P.M. (Monday – Sunday)
Telephone Number(s): (+63 2) 893-4533
Mobile Number(s): (+63) 917-869-9546
Website: http://mingkeerestaurant.com/
A couple of blocks away from Century City Mall, Ming Kee is a seafood lover's paradise. Despite the name, Ming Kee doesn't literally offer live(!) seafood; instead, it offers dishes fresh from the source. Some of their must-tries include the drunken shrimps with herbs, the steamed clams with special house sauce, and the famous Singapore chili crab.
The Red Crab
Address: 2/F Greenbelt 3, Ayala Center, Makati City
Opening Hours: 11:00 A.M. – 11:00 P.M. (Monday – Thursday), 11:00 A.M. – 12:00 M.N. (Friday – Saturday), 11:00 A.M. – 11:00 P.M. (Sunday)
Telephone Number(s): (+63 2) 757-4129
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theredcrabalimangohouse/
This restaurant doesn't only offer crab (though that's certainly their specialty). They also have Lechon Kawali, Crispy Chicharon Bulaklak, Lapu-Lapu with Sweet and Sour Sauce, and Manila Pork Ribs. But if you came here for the crab, we highly recommend their Crab Lilian, Crab and Mango Salad, Crab Maritess, and Crab Adobo.
Tsukiji Restaurant
Address: 3/F Milkyway Bldg., 900 Arnaiz Ave. cor. Paseo de Roxas, San Lorenzo, Makati City
Opening Hours: 11:30 A.M. – 2:30 P.M., 6:00 P.M. – 10:00 P.M. (Monday – Saturday), 11:30 A.M. – 2:00 P.M., 6:00 P.M. – 10:00 P.M. (Sunday)
Telephone Number(s): (+63 2) 843-4285, (+63 2) 812-2913
E-mail: email@example.com
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tsukjirestaurant
Website: http://www.tsukiji-restaurant.com/
This one's a little out of the way (not being near/inside a mall), but if you can drop by here, it's also a perfect Valentine's dinner venue. Like the eponymous Japanese market, Tsukiji serves a wide variety of seafood dishes such as maguro, hamachi, ama ebi, and Hokkaido uni. If you like Japanese food in general (rather than just seafood), you can also try their meat dishes like yakiniku, sukiyaki, and shabu-shabu. Itadakimasu!
Via Mare Oyster Bar & Café
Address: Power Plant Mall, Greenbelt 3, Greenbelt 1, The Landmark – Makati
Opening Hours: See hours per branch here
Telephone Number(s): (+63 2) 898-1306 / (+63 2) 890-5772 (Power Plant Mall), (+63 2) 757-4020 / (+63 2) 757-4022 (Greenbelt 3), (+63 2) 815-1918 (Greenbelt 1), (+63 2) 817-9720 (The Landmark – Makati)
Website: http://www.viamare.com.ph/
As you can guess from the name, Via Mare specializes in oyster dishes. They have Oysters Napolitaine, Oysters Boursin, Oysters Parmesan, Oysters Rockefeller, and Oysters Wasabi. If you can't decide which one to try, sample all five flavors with their Oyster Combination platter.
Via Mare also serves Filipino cuisines in a traditional, homey atmosphere, which lends itself well to a Philippine-style Valentine's. We've also written an in-depth review on their Power Plant Mall branch, which you can read here.

How you present yourself during the interview process is critical to get the job. There are parts of the process you can't control, but many that you can. It's imperative to do your best job as a candidate, from 1st interviews through an offer.
We promise if you follow these simple suggestions you will greatly increase your chances of getting the best offer possible.
Find out as much as you can about the company you're interviewing with. First, visit one of their locations prior to your interview. This will give you a snapshot of the operations as well as a customer perspective. Take notes and feel free to discuss your experience during the interview. Study the company's website; know the company's history, mission, and values - these will tell you a lot about what they're hoping to see in YOU as a potential employee.
Be ready to discuss your numbers/measurables in current or previous positions - ALL of them - and be prepared with a few stories of your personal track record of success. You will likely be asked open-ended questions like "When did you face a tough decision or problem, and how did you handle it?" – be sure to have SPECIFIC examples to give including the problem, your actions, and the results, not general answers like "We worked harder". Tell them about your successes, and exactly what you & your team did to create them. Be careful not to take all the credit- companies are far more interested in how you can motivate your team to accomplish results- no single person can make a difference without getting team members to buy in.
Be likeable! Making a great first impression and establishing a real connection is everything. Smile, make eye contact, be energetic and enthusiastic, sit forward in your chair, use the interviewer's name.... Be yourself, but be the best possible version of yourself.
Be sure to dress appropriately. Wear your best professional-looking suit - you want to look like you could be on the cover of Business Today magazine. You only get one chance to make a great first impression!
Employers are looking for a positive, can-do attitude. Don't create negative sound bites. Interviewers will only remember a few sound bites, especially negative ones. If you've never been in charge of training, don't say, "I've never been in charge of training." Say, "I did not fill that specific role, but I have trained dozens of new hires and created several training guides." Never say, "I can't," or "I haven't," or "I don't." Share applicable experience and find the positives in what you have done. No matter what the subject, be positive: Even your worst mistake can be your best learning experience.
Never trash-talk prior employers or bosses, either–no matter how bad the situation may have been. Don't go into details about your unhappiness or dissatisfaction, and don't make excuses for failure. Instead, tell them that while you valued the experience and education that you received, you felt that the time had come to seek out a new opportunity, to expand your skills and knowledge, and to find a company with which you could grow.
• Answer interview questions directly & concisely, stay on topic, and don't ramble.
• Your cell phone should be turned off and out of sight.
• Don't chew gum, or bring anything to eat or drink.
• Bring a list of references (with contact info) to offer the recruiter at the end of the interview.
• Be sure to follow up with a brief thank-you email.
• If they(or your RMS Recruiter) call and leave you a voice mail, return the call the SAME DAY – even if it's late. We have seen many candidates lose out on great opportunities because they did not respond in a timely manner. You want to do everything in your power to convey a high level of interest- this will absolutely make a difference!
If you receive an offer, be sure to discuss a time frame with the company for giving them a decision, then stick to it. It is imperative that you keep every commitment during the interview process. If you have any questions or concerns about the details, call your RMS Recruiter, not the company. We have walked literally thousands of candidates through this process and can help you navigate delicate issues like benefits and/or counter-offers without offending the employer or damaging your relationship. Many companies make their best offer first; others may be open to negotiate. But please allow us to do our job by helping you determine what is realistic.

Trained as a clinician and IT professional, structure and methodical patterns show in my passion for art. Incorporating right and left brain messages, attention to detail with the effusive use of color is used in provoking the viewer to see his personal story in the work.
I consider myself a "green artist", using only found material and objects to create mixed media and assemblage art. There is great pleasure in giving discarded ephemera a new purpose and meaning when combined into a single construction. The history and humor in my work is influenced by my life experiences: living and travelling internationally, family upbringing, thoughts on world events and scientific/technical education.

Help us, help Hospitality Action. Every time we sell cooking oil and collect the waste from our customers we make a donation to the industry's charity.
We chose to partner with Hospitality Action as they are a charity dedicated to supporting those in the hospitality sector. We felt there was no better cause to support as this sector is core to our business.
We have an ongoing partnership with the charity and have been raising money for them since June 2012.
Hospitality Action has been established since 1837 and offers vital assistance to all who work, or have worked within hospitality in the UK and who find themselves in need. Of the 2,037 people Hospitality Action helped in 2016, 84% were under the age of 60, 37% experienced a life changing illness and 30% were living in poverty.
Hospitality Action support people…
Our customers don't have to do anything more than what they are already doing, other than continuing to buy their cooking oil from us and ensure we collect all the used cooking oil they produce. This means preventing it from being stolen and making sure they recycle everything through our legal collection service.
Alternatively, anyone can help individually by visiting the Hospitality Action website and becoming a member or they can encourage their business to become a corporate member. They can also hold their own fundraising events and donate the proceeds to Hospitality Action or they can simply spread the word to use Olleco, as the more customers we have to supply and collect from, the more we can donate to Hospitality Action.
For more information or to find out how you can support them, visit www.hospitalityaction.org.uk

For many pets are like their children, and they are taking their pets with them when they are traveling. There are a couple of things that you should make sure about when you are traveling with pets do different countries. Some countries don't allow pets or certain pets. This is the same in China. You need to make sure that you are aware of their rules and regulations to ensure that you are aware of what you are allowed or not allowed to do when bringing your pet with you:
The pets should have the rabies injection.
The number one rule is that your pet should have a rabies injection before they are traveling to China. The rabies injection should be done before 30 days on arrival. Meaning that you need to make sure that the rabies injection is not older than a month before traveling.
Also, your pet might not be older than 7 years. Then, you can have some troubles with getting your pet into China.
One pet per passport.
Another essential rule of bringing your pet to China is that they are only allowing one pet per passport. Meaning that if you have two pets, you need to be two people that are entering China as well.
However, there is a way around this rule. They are saying pet per passport and not per person. Meaning if you can take your friend's passport with you, you can take two pets into China.
Might need a dog license
Some cities in China are requiring that you have a dog license before you can enter the city. This is important to make sure what the rule of the city is before entering the city. Or, you should get a license when you enter China and you will not have any problems, no matter where you are.
The pet might need to be quarantined for 30 days
When you are entering China through Shanghai, you need to know that there is a huge chance that your pet is going to be quarantined for 30 days. The pet will be taken good care off, but if you are going on holiday in China, you might have a problem with your pet that might be still in quarantine when you leave China. This is why you should make sure that you know if your pet is going to be quarantined when you arrive in Shanghai.
There are many strict rules for bringing your pet to China. And, they will not change any rules for anyone. So if you don't want to have problems with your pet when arriving in China, then you should make sure that you are following each rule that they have about bringing pets to China.

Transplantation of livers and kidneys can be done with living donors. Livers regenerate and kidneys come in pairs. In most cases, donors are family members or friends with a match. Some people even donate their liver or kidney as a charity. If a willing and matching donor is found, then the next step is surgery.
For a heart, double lung, pancreas and cornea, the donor can only be a deceased person. Generally, people who have been declared brain dead are accepted as donors, provided they are not on artificial life aid.
To get an organ, the person must first have a transplant team, which will perform the surgery. The team will evaluate the patient and approve him or her for organ reception. The next step is for the patient to get on a nation wide waiting list. When a required organ is obtainable, the organization reaches out to the first recipient in the waiting list. Upon approval by the transplant team, the patient is notified, the preparations are made and surgery is done.

Former Governor Brad Henry talks about death penalty review commission
The grand jury investigating Oklahoma's troubled execution process began meeting again Tuesday, but no matter what they find, Oklahoma's death penalty is getting its first ever top to bottom review. Helping lead the effort to review capital punishment is former Governor Brad Henry.
Related: Fox 25's coverage of Oklahoma's execution issues.
"The only time I ever lost sleep as the governor was when I was acting on those clemency hearings," Governor Henry told Fox 25, "That is the one time where literally by the stroke of the governor's pen someone lives or dies."
Henry granted clemency, following a recommendation by the Pardon and Parole Board, three times during his eight years in office. He also denied clemency. He remembers each difficult decision and the waiting by the phone on the day of executions. During his time in office, executions happened at midnight. Henry said he was by the phone until the execution was finished to fulfill his duty as Governor.
"It is a very, very sobering thing to have to do," Henry said, "I don't even like to think about it or talk about it; I don't think most people do."
It is that perspective the governor hopes to bring to a newly formed commission which will study the death penalty in Oklahoma. "We have no agenda," Henry said of the commission, "What we've agreed to is the system should be fair and it should be just."
The group was formed by The Constitution Project, a national nonpartisan nonprofit group that provides public policy research. They approached Governor Henry about being one of the co-chairs of a research-based review of capital punishment in Oklahoma.
"We have the grand jury currently focused on one small aspect of the capital punishment process, the execution aspect, but nobody's ever looked at the process from arrest through execution."
Are there racial disparities in executions? Do capital cases get adequate legal representation? Is the process fair? These are all good questions in search of good answers. The commission's goal is to review the data and provide those answers based on facts, not feelings.
"We hope that Oklahoma can set a positive example in this area for the rest of the country and that's important because obviously Oklahoma's been in the news quite a bit lately for some of the problems that have occurred in the execution process," Henry told Fox 25.
Henry said he has no idea what the outcome of the commission will be, but he hopes it answers the questions about what the costs and benefits are to capital punishment and if one is greater than the other.
The death penalty commission is all volunteer and is not being funded by the state. The commission hopes to have recommendations about what should change, or what should stay the same by early next year.

Raped by an Angel
This film was marketed as the follow up to Naked Killer. Don't believe it. It does have Chingmy Yau and Simon Yam - but as you might guess if you saw NK - they don't play the same characters. In this one Chingmy sets out to trap a rapist who has brutally assaulted her friend. Her method is to entice him and so she performs a strip tease that had my television perspiring. In the end she uses an incredibly tasteless and politically incorrect way of getting revenge for her friend on the rapist. Only in HK could you get away with this ending. A pretty bad movie - with the exception of the endlessly mesmerizing Chingmy. The best thing is the sexy picture on the cover of the laser disk!
My rating for this film: 5.0

text: Just a few weeks after the Starboard fund alleged that Mellanox was making low profits in comparison with its peer group, Mellanox provided updated targets for 2018 today, including improvement in operating profitability. Mellanox, founded and managed by Eyal Waldman, develops, produces and sells communications equipment for rapid data transfer. In the presentation published today, the company states that one of its goals for 2018 is a return to low to medium double-digit growth, after a year of almost no growth in 2017 (which compares with growth of 30% in 2016). Non-GAAP operating profit margins, which, according to analysts' estimates will be just 13.7% in 2017, are meant to rise in 2018 to 17-19% ("high teens"), with the final quarter of 2018 seeing operating margins of over 20%. This is despite the fact that Mellanox's gross margins are expected to fall from 71% in the first three quarters of 2017 to 68-69% in 2018, because of the company's product mix. Mellanox says in the presentation that its operating expenses will fall in 2018. The company's target is 50% operating profit growth next year in comparison with the current year.
