Do it Afraid.
I understand that it is hard to make changes. I understand that your normal is still your normal no matter how toxic it is and how much it hurts you. It's the fear of what next, it's the fear of failure, it's the fear of leaving things that make you comfortable. "I will never find anyone to love me as a single mom" "I'll never make it on my own" and other lies we tell ourselves. It comes down to fear and not thinking we don't deserve any better. The cycle of dysfunction in a relationship, the "Only every 6 months he drinks too much and spirals out of control." or "only about once a month, we fight like that.....I can handle once a year, once a month, once a week." The cycle that will never stop unless you decide you want off the ride. There is a quote I love "Sometimes...fear does not subside and...one must choose to do it afraid."
Choose to do it afraid. You are worth more than those friends who talk about you behind your back, you are worth more than your mother or family member doing things for you just to get things in return, you are WORTH MORE. And you don't owe anyone for being nice to you, People are their own sovereign beings and they have the power to do things because they choose too, you do not owe them. YOU DO NOT OWE THEM.
You are not chained to relationships just because they helped you through hard times years ago. We attract people into our lives for a purpose, sometimes the purpose is short lived and it is time to release. You are not obligated to continue to drain yourself for something that is no longer working. If your relationships do not grow and change and serve who you are NOW, it is okay to honor (I thank you for all the things you have shown me, I thank you for the lessons and the good times.) and release.
And this isn't just about relationships, it's about anything in your life. Believing you are worthy is no small task, when you have been in these cycles, when you have grown up believing the opposite. But it is also not impossible.
Finding motivation for change:
If you don't want to break the cycle for you, do it for someone you love, or even imagine someone you love while you do it. You would not want this life for your daughter, niece, son, cat, dog, so, imagine that you are them. Make decisions while thinking of them and use it to find your strength.
Positive Affirmations:
Speak life into yourself. It's okay if you don't believe it at first, but stay consistent and I promise you will notice a difference. You have been downing yourself for years, so why not try something new? "I am worthy of love" "I deserve love because I exist." "I am strong and capable." "I can do anything I put my mind to." "I deserve a life I love." Into the mirror. All day long. To yourself. This calls attention to your speech. This wakes you up and holds you accountable for the things you say. Replace the "I can't" The "I'm so stupid" With words of love. Refuse to bully yourself. "I am smart." "It's okay to make mistakes."
It is essential to create boundaries in your life and it is even more essential to require that the people in your life respect those boundaries. Find your voice. "No, actually that's not okay." "I would prefer if you didn't" Be an advocate for yourself. This is will feel uncomfortable at first, do it anyway. Once you establish boundaries, you are opening up the fact that you DO matter. You are speaking your needs and people will eventually hear you or they will not be allowed in your life. It's a process, start small, create your new comfort zone brick by brick.
Change is hard, it's uncomfortable, it's terrifying, but you are worth it. You really do deserve a life that you love and it is absolutely possible.

The expert's way
Professional cheese-testers approach a Parmigiano-Reggiano with something not unlike the kind of gravity Harley Street doctors reserve for important patients.
They hold the cheese-owner in suspense until all of the above eight points have been thoroughly checked.
The cheese-tester works with
- a percussion hammer
- a screw-needle
- a sampling dowel
The examination of a wheel of Parmigiano-Reggiano
With his hammer, the expert taps the cheese at various points while listening carefully to the way the crust takes the blows. This tells him what is going on inside in much the same way as a stethoscope does.
The cheese is then pierced with the screw-needle to extract a minute sample of the contents. The resistance of the cheese indicates something of its internal consistency, and the sample enables the expert to judge the aroma and degree of maturation.
The sampling dowel is resorted to only in exceptional cases, when the aforementioned methods have failed to elicit a diagnosis.

beat the whole nuts from a tree with their wings, while all is a scramble, both above and below, for the same. They have the same cooing notes common to domestic pigeons, but much less of their gesticulations. In some flocks you will find nothing but young ones, which are easily distinguishable by their motley dress. In others they will be mostly females, and again great multitudes of males with few or no females. I cannot account for this in any other way than that, during the time of incubation, the males are exclusively engaged in procuring food, both for themselves and their mates, and the young, being yet unable to undertake these extensive excursions, associate together accordingly. But even in winter I know of several species of birds who separate in this manner, particularly the red-winged starling, among whom thousands of old males may be found with few or no young or females along with them.
Stragglers from these immense armies settle in almost every part of the country, particularly among the beech woods and in the pine and hemlock woods of the eastern and northern parts of the continent. Mr. Pennant informs us that they breed near Moose Fort, at Hudson's Bay, in N. latitude 51 degrees, and I myself have seen the remains of a large breeding place as far south as the country of the Choctaws, in latitude 32 degrees. In the former of these places they are said to remain until December; from which circumstance it is evident that they are not regular in their migrations

Destined to Fail? 3 Ways to Avoid a Home Business Nightmare
Do you own a home-based business or are you looking to start one in the hopes of having more time for yourself and your family? Are you afraid that today's economic roller coaster may impact you in a way you're unprepared for? Today's economic woes are creating incredible opportunities, and opening many people's eyes to the fact that changing your life, reclaiming your time and getting out of that old nine to five job might just be the way to go. And, starting a home-based, online business is a great way to do that. However, you want to make sure that you're guaranteed success rather than failure. Here are three ways to avoid a home-business nightmare:
1. Avoid Being Awestruck
Don't be awestruck by other people's online marketing success, and think that it's easy. Starting any kind of home-based business and becoming your own boss, can be very intimidating. Luckily, there are tons of online business opportunities that allow you to earn additional income and change your life. The biggest problem most people face is not whether they can make money, it is how fast can they replace their primary income, and start reaping the benefits of working from home.
It starts with the right mindset. Instead of just looking at the business opportunity as your salvation, you need take on the role of the budding entrepreneur. In other words, many of the opportunities out there can only return considerable profits when the person behind it is driving the results. This means being committed and ready to take action, because a business with no driving force is destined to fail. You have to be willing to climb a mountain, or do whatever it takes to achieve the results you're seeking.
Do your research, put an action plan in place, and be prepared to have a backup plan just in case your first endeavors don't quite work out the way you want them to.
2. Avoid Easy Thinking
Due to the enticing nature of home-based business opportunities, and the lure of easy money for little to no effort, many entrepreneurs entering this arena for the first time, have absolutely no business acumen, or experience before they jump in full force. Even with the best product, the coolest website, the latest technology and many innovative ideas for your business, you still need to be the driving force behind your business. If you you've never run a business before, you need to learn some basic business skills. You can have the desire to succeed, but that alone won't run your business. You must know what you're doing. If nothing else, you need to learn some basic marketing techniques. Running any kind of business whether it is online or offline, needs marketing and sales to succeed. You need to understand what the competition is doing. You need to find ways to differentiate yourself, in other words, target a niche market.
It all boils down to your willingness to do what it takes to be successful. Know that frustration is par for the course. Don't blame the opportunity if your business fails, rather look at the person running the operation, that's you!
3. Avoid Jumping in Without a Plan
What is one critical component of success? What needs to be done before you even decide on what business opportunity you are going to pursue? You need to make a plan. You need to spend as much time as necessary doing the research before you get started. You need to lay out what your goals are, and how you plan to achieve them. Once you select your work from home business opportunity, you need to establish realistic projected sales, and growth. It's almost impossible to go from zero to a million dollars overnight. Once you create a plan, consider having trusted business friends or associates vet it, and help you work out any kinks before you begin. Many say that ninety percent of your success is in the planning and preparation. Once that is in place, the sales and profit fall into place more easily.
It is unfortunate that many new home based business entrepreneurs fail miserably because they thought it was as easy as a click of the mouse. Don't fall into that same category. Think things through, create a thorough plan, exit strategy and a backup plan and you will be well on your way to online success!

Life at Southbank is rarely static. As is the inherent nature of international schools, we experience movement within our school community. As such, we are used to the process of welcoming new families to our own Southbank family, and make each and every new student feel wholeheartedly at home. Upon arriving at Southbank, all new students are given a 'buddy', one that, if possible, shares their mother tongue/nationality.
New parents are also put in touch with members of our Parent Teacher Association who have been through similar experiences, in order that they too have a support system during the transition. Coffee mornings are held for new parents to meet with other parents, old and new, and orientation days are provided for new students before joining. We know how daunting it can be to start a new school, let alone move, sometimes, half way across the world, and aim to make the transition as stress-free, and enjoyable as possible for everybody involved.
Southbank students benefit from an extensive language programme comprised of 20 different languages, as well as a substantial variety of extracurricular activities ranging from sports like football, to Robotics and First Lego League. There is something on offer for everyone, and we endeavour to give our students the very best experiences available to them, not only in their academic lives but also in developing lifelong passions that they can continue to nurture wherever their international minds may take them. Our class sizes are small (most classes 18 or smaller), we have highly qualified teachers, and a very diverse student and staff body, comprised of over 70 nationalities.
We hope that all students feel well cared for, continuously heard and always encouraged throughout their school lives at Southbank, whether that be for 1 term, or 14 years. The Southbank family is a myriad of cultures, all of which complement each other, and no matter where in the world our students end up, we hope they will always look back on their time at Southbank International School with fondness. Once a Southbanker, always a Southbanker.
Welcoming New Families
Southbank embraces new families and assists them with their transition to the school and to London.Read More
Parent-Teacher Association (PTA)
The Southbank community is vibrant and strong, comprising students, staff and parents.Read More

JUPITER – The Marlins play one more spring exhibition today – hosting the University of Miami at Roger Dean Stadium at 1:05 p.m. – before taking off Wednesday and opening their Grapefruit League schedule Thursday against the Cardinals.
The Marlins regulars will play a couple of innings and get one at bat each, meaning Giancarlo Stanton will face an opposing pitcher for the first time since being hit in the face on Sept. 11 and newly acquired 1B Michael Morse, 2B Dee Gordon, 3B Martin Prado and backup OF Ichiro Suzuki should get their first game action as a members of the Marlins.
Right-hander Jose Urena will start against the Hurricanes followed by a parade of pitchers much like the Marlins employed in their 7-2 victory over FIU on Monday.
Urena, 23, is the Marlins fourth-best prospect according to Baseball America. He was 13-8 with a 3.33 ERA at Class AA Jacksonville last season and, according to president of baseball operations Michael Hill, made the "biggest strides of any pitcher" in the organization in 2014, along with lefty (and No. 3 prospect) Justin Nicolino.
Hill cited the development of Urena's slider and changeup.
"He's always been a strike thrower, he's always had a good arm, but there were questions going into last year as to whether his secondary pitches would allow him to stay in the rotation," Hill said. "To his credit he's one of our hardest working pitchers in our system. He worked his tail off with all his pitching coaches, with Wayne Rosenthal, to tighten up his secondary pitches to allow him to navigate a lineup three and four time through."
Hill said Urena, who is from the Dominican Republic, had a below average slider and changeup a year ago.
"He found a changeup grip that was comfortable for him and he found a slider grip that was comfortable for him that allowed him to throw it with confidence," Hill said. "Once he was able to throw with confidence, he had a well above average fastball he could attack hitters knowing he had three weapons to get him out."
Urena will be followed by: RH Preston Claiborne, LH Chris Narveson, RH Anthony Rienzo, LH Adam Conley, RH Trevor Williams, LH Andrew McKirahan, LH Grant Dayton and RH Nick Wittgren.

|Development of real world driving cycles at Delhi Bus Rapid Transit corridor and air pollution scenario
|Kumar, Ravindra
Gupta, Kamini
Durai, B K
|Issue Date:
|NISCAIR-CSIR, India
|Real world driving cycles represent traffic behaviour and it is an important element of emission model. Although Indian driving cycles have been developed to test emission and fuel consumption but they are based on constant speed, acceleration not covering heterogeneous traffic composition. Therefore, in this study bus driving cycle have been attempted to estimate emission and fuel consumptions including the changes in the driving characteristic of other vehicles as well. In this paper driving cycles are derived at Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridor of Delhi for buses, cars and motorcycles using real world driving data in both operational and non-operational stretch. The results show that average running speed of buses in operational corridors are higher. However, due to introduction of BRT, there was reduction in speed for cars and motorcycles because of lesser road space availability in contrast to the traffic volume. Even chances of accidents are lower because of speed reduction. The changed speed pattern also affect the modal shifting from cars, motorcycles to buses resulting lower emission along the corridor. In this paper two emission scenarios are developed by assuming 5% and 10% modal shift of commuter from cars and motorcycles to buses due to higher operational efficiency in BRT system. We found, that there was decline of 4% and 9% emission for CO and HC in comparison to current business as usual scenario, if such a shift is happened. The results indicate that BRT is environment friendly sustainable transportation to reduce pollution. This approach well represents real world traffic behaviour in heterogeneous condition for sustainable transport.

Ransomware is a class of crimeware that locks down an infected system by preventing user's access to their data stored locally or via accessible shared network drives. Access is only sometimes restored to the victim after a sum of money is transferred to a digitally remote blackmailer.
CryptoLocker is one of the latest variants in this family surfacing over the last few months has recently made some noise across the industry. Ransomware is one of the busiest (and most annoying) threats of 2013, and is experiencing another comeback tour so we decided it's time to take a peek under the hood of the latest variant's campaign to see what the author team is up to as of late and how different is the actual threat compared to the evasion techniques.

I've been busy with painting for an upcoming exhibition in Kumu. It's the big national museum of art in Estonia. The dream of every painter. The opening is this Thursday. I haven't been painting for some time and it was cool to do it again. Out of 5 paintings I painted, 2 will be shown and one of them is the portrait of K8 Mosh. The exhibition will be in Kumu until 10.10.10 so go check it out.
I'm taking things to a different level and it will be influencing many aspects of my music. It is a crucial time in my music. As some of you know I'm changing the default tempo from my loved 150 to a calm 135 in the beat. The songs will get their power from the other instruments. Also I am putting more emphasis on having a vocal in my tracks. Some of the songs will have mine and
some will have female vocals. I am reworking some of the older tracks also which haven't been released. Among them also "Everyone's a princess", which is something to look forward to. Look out for my myspace as I will post some new tracks soon ;)

"Welcome to Krasilnikoff. Products designed for everyday use and everyday joy."
Susanne Krasilnikoff started the company in the Fall of 2002 with the idea of designing aesthetic and colorful Danish Design. The Krasilnikoff family household has since then moved in search for more space due to the great response.
In the summer of 2006, they moved to the countryside at Nøkkentvedgaard's Farm Estate, in Knabstrup, situated about 75 km west from Copenhagen. The old hayloft was converted into a beautiful office with large gable windows overlooking the very landscape that inspires Susanne's designs.
Today Krasilnikoff is a Designer and Producer of several collections of porcelain and textiles, most notably three brands: Happy Mugs, Happy Stars and Happy – their line of textiles. The company made a breakthrough in 2014 that has spurred them into a steady and strong growth ever since. Krasilnikoff exports more than 98% of their production. This rapid growth in the company has been confirmed by the No. 13 position over all 1790 Danish companies awarded the Børsen Gazelle Award in 2016, which recognizes Danish companies with a substantial strong growth in the past 4 years.
Susanne Krasilnikoff is a Danish Businesswoman and Designer with a passion for life and Danish "hygge". This passion has developed her ideas into colorful and happy designs that are made to brighten up anyone's day.
Krasilnikoff launches 2 collections per year including both porcelain and textiles: Spring/Summer Collection and Autumn/Winter Collection.

text: Share: Comments Print February 24, 2014 at 12:53 PM Marché, formerly Campagne, shutting its doors Posted by Rebekah Denn File photo of Daisley Gordon at the former Campagne by John Lok/The Seattle Times First Campagne, the elegant French mainstay at Pike Place Market, was reimagined as the more casual bistro Marché. Now, a few years later, Marché itself is shutting its doors. The last day to visit will be Feb. 28. Its popular little sister Cafe Campagne will remain open. The restaurant in the courtyard of the Inn at the Market just wasn't busy enough to justify keeping it open, said executive chef Daisley Gordon, who came on at Campagne in 1995 and later became owner of the restaurant and Cafe Campagne. He was "at a loss" to figure out why the renovated eatery didn't attract more crowds, beyond the usual ups and downs like downtown parking limitations. "We were excited about the changes we had made (in 2011), and thought it was an opportunity to do something different and to work on the wine bar concept," he said. People connected well with wine director Cyril Frechier's extensive wines by the glass program and the bites offered at the bar — "the front end of it has a great ambience and a lot of energy" — but the back dining area didn't achieve the same draw. "Restaurants, they're complicated things…" Gordon said. "We did what we were good at in that space, and did our best, and thought OK, this is a good time to move on, somebody else may have a better chance. The whole restaurant world is pretty dynamic." Gordon understands the sentimental connection Seattle diners have with the building. "I've been in this space myself in one form or another since 1995," he said, recalling how it remained a touchstone even for customers of the original Campagne location on Capitol Hill. Over nearly a quarter-century, the restaurant was a proving ground for fine chefs who went on to open their own beloved Seattle eateries, including Jim Drohman of Cafe Presse and Le Pichet, and Tamara Murphy of Terra Plata. Campagne was remodeled in 2011 and re-opened as the new bistro and wine bar. Providence Cicero wrote of Marché that "the bar is bigger, the lounge more intimate, the dining room racier." While it's not easy supplanting an icon, she wrote, Marché might have its own chance to become one. Cafe Campagne, originally founded by former Campagne owner Peter Lewis in 1994, is going strong, Gordon said, with new outlets and with a range of customers from those stopping by for coffee to a dinner blowout to people looking for a bit of Paris in their oeufs en meurette or cassoulet. "It's a transition. It's really sad that the space is gone, I'm very happy that I'm still in the market… I feel very much that the spirit of the love of French cuisine and French dining and the French approach to dining lives on in the cafe." Diners can stop by to say farewell by the 28th, or make reservations online here. Comments | Topics: Cafe Campagne, Campagne, Daisley Gordon

BIRMINGHAM, Ala.—The No. 22 Birmingham-Southern softball team won two games at home Thursday evening, defeating in-state rival Huntingdon 3-0 and 7-2 at BSC Softball Park.
The Panthers moved to 16-4, while the Hawks fell to 9-9.
- BSC held Huntingdon scoreless behind a strong complete-game pitching performance from junior Taylor Harkins (8-1), who gave up only three hits while striking out 12 batters with no walks.
- The Panthers scored their first two runs in the bottom of the second inning on an RBI single by junior Alex Skene that also allowed a run to score on a throwing error from left field.
- BSC's third and final run came in the fourth when freshman Abby Spencer drew a walk with the bases loaded.
- BSC scored a run in the third, capitalizing on a Hawk error on a failed pickoff at third allowing Skene to come home.
- Huntingdon took their first and only lead of the game in the top of the fourth, scoring on an RBI double and a ground-out.
- Junior Maddie Ridgway recorded a sac-fly in the fifth to tie things up 2-2, and the Panthers pulled ahead in the sixth, scoring the game-winning run on a bases-loaded walk.
- BSC added four more in the same inning, scoring two runs on a single by freshman Kendall Hamm, one run on a Spencer RBI single, and the final run on another Ridgway sac-fly.
- Freshman Peighton Ponder (4-2) picked up the win in the circle, throwing the final four scoreless innings and giving up two hits with four strikeouts.
- BSC resumes Southern Athletic Association action next week, traveling to Jackson, Miss., during Spring Break to face Millsaps.
- The teams will play a doubleheader on Tuesday, March 22, at noon, and a single game on Wednesday, March 23, at noon.

It's so easy – normal, even – for each of us to get caught up in our everyday routines; without ever giving much thought to the way things might change in the blink of an eye.
These outfit photos were planned for my post last Friday…before it became the saddest day. Our weather was still uncharacteristically cold for Vancouver; in the meantime, we've (thankfully!) returned to our typically milder temperatures.
On this day, though, I definitely needed those leather gloves…with that woolly blue sweater under my military-inspired jacket. And the smiles?? Spontaneous and unforced.
Smiling is a little difficult right now, dear readers…but I know I'll get there again. Time – and the healing distraction of an outfit combination or two – will most certainly be just the medicine I need.

AR Photography is here for all your photography needs! Take a look around and if you like what you see shoot me an email. Looking forward to chatting with you.
"Ashley is AMAZING!!! I used her for our May wedding and she did perfect. She was SO easy to work with and super down to earth. We haven't received all our pictures yet but from the few photos we have gotten to preview they are amazing and exactly what we wanted. I would highly recommend using her for your special day."
- Shelbi & Jordan
"Ashley was amazing! She was quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. She was very flexible and really worked to capture all the pictures and shots I requested. I love our photos and if I could do our wedding again I would still definitely use her!"
- Kinsey & Jon
"I met Ashley at a bridal show back in January. She had a beautiful display and I immediately fell in love with her pictures. From the moment we had our first meeting with her, I felt comfortable and just like we were friends. She asked so many important questions from our venue, to how my then fiancé now HUSBAND (eek) met, to our expectations and style of our wedding. She has always been in constant communication with us and any questions I had were always answered in a very timely manner. My bridals were 9 days before the wedding and she got all of the images to me several days before the wedding so I could have them printed! The images are absolutely gorgeous!! I am so appreciative and tremendously happy that we chose her to capture the most important day of our lives!! She is not only AMAZING at what she does, but she's so friendly, sweet and down to earth!"
- Tricia & Michael
"I am so excited to review this beautiful, and talented photographer! We heard about her through a friend, and interviewed Ashley a few days later. After a few questions and reviewing some of her work, my fiancé and I knew we did not have to search any further for a photographer. Her style is exactly what we had imagined and wanted. Neither of us have ever had professional pictures taken, so we were a bit nervous to have our engagements taken. The experience could not have gone better, she was incredibly professional, and even though a few of the poses felt like they may look funny, it turned out they looked perfect. She even made the cutest leaf garlands to put around my two dogs' necks! I cannot wait for my wedding in April, because I know for a fact those pictures are going to be perfect. Her talents, and eye for a beautiful photograph will far surpass your expectations. Choose her for your event photography, I can 110% assure you will not regret it."
- Rebecca & Steven
"I absolutely loved working with Ashley for both my bridal shoot and wedding! If her gorgeous photos don't already speak for themselves, let me shed some more light on AR Photography. Ashley's experience and education coupled with her friendly personality and accommodating nature immediately attracted me to her. Considering that you will spend hours with your photographer taking intimate as well as fun photos, Ashley was an immediate winner for me! My mom, who was my bridal shoot helper, husband (who was unable to meet her until the wedding day!), wedding party, and guests also loved working with Ashley. She was always very communicative and listened to my desires before and on the wedding day. AR Photography in three words; Professional, Experienced, Delightful"
- Lindsey & Marvin
"Ashley was the perfect photographer for our wedding day! I was a little concerned when my husband (then fiancé) and I started looking for a photographer as many of them were very expensive and very busy (it was difficult to get a meeting with many of them). Ashley was recommended to us by a family member and it was the best suggestion we got! Ashley's packages are very reasonably priced for what quality work she delivers. She was very prompt in her communications, very professional on-site and a wonderful woman to work with. I am not photogenic by nature and was worried that I wouldn't get any of those romantic shots you see in magazines and on the internet, but she was able to capture all the special moments of the day! Ashley is easy to work with and not afraid to jump right into your party and get some candid shots of your friends and family. After the wedding Ashley kept in constant contact about the status of our photos as we anxiously awaited their arrival. I appreciate Ashley's willingness to communicate personally with her customers throughout the whole wedding process. I would highly recommend Ashley as a photographer to any future brides, we couldn't be happier with her work."
- Megan & Dom

TW: queerphobia, physical abuse
This is me. Accusation after accusation, assumption after assumption, and name after name. This is still me and I decide who I will become.
Growing up being the feminine immigrant kid who talked, walked, and danced differently than all of the others put me on a high pedestal that seemed like I was being observed by ten thousand people who had sketch pads and notebooks to document my every move. These ten thousand people would look at me confused, questioning my identity and wondering if I displayed "boyhood" in just the right ways to keep my brown, immigrant self on just the right clutch to compliment an already heteronormative, xenophobic, and capitalist world. The way I simply was wasn't socially acceptable. I always knew I was different. From the glare in my face to the love in my heart to the attractiveness to the other gender – it was all strange to me yet nothing was really new. They questioned, but I was still a secret. I had to be a secret.
My father and mother had been prepping up to become missionaries even before I was born. I spent an entire 18 years in the church and watched their talents and dreams flourish. I loved the church when I was younger. I'd sing and make the church members cry when I was little, and I was placed in many bands which helped soothe my insecurities. We didn't have much, but knowing my parents had planted a career in helping to heal others was really satisfying. I only really began to find issues with the people around me when I began to notice their distaste in my identity. It was usually the younger kids who sent me personal attacks but the words that came out of the adults on that church alter spurred psychological warfare in my mind that went on for so long. My family and those around me would tell me to act more masculine, to talk more masculine, to be more masculine. They would give me dirty looks if my pitch was too high and if my hands were too loose. I was usually the target of physical abuse growing up because the kids around me wanted to test if my sissy self would be "man enough" to endure a punch. They thought my femininity was something that needed to be fixed right away, and I did not even understand what I had been doing wrong. I was just being me.
My heart and mind kept asking me who I was and wanted to reassure me that the accusations made against me weren't true. I would think out loud and say, "Well maybe they are true to some extent, but the mean stuff isn't. Keep calm and lay low. Keep calm and lay low." I didn't know exactly who I was and that was okay. I was more worried about survival than figuring out my identity, but sometimes the questions began banging at the back of my mind. Almost every time I thought a boy was cute or got a warm rush in my body when seeing an attractive man I'd look down afterwards in shame or even shake my head. I'd ritualistically shake it as a way of making those thoughts tumble out of my mind. I was still confused, but I slowly knew what my heart was guiding me towards. I could not contain it.
Once I slowly began to understand myself a little bit better, I kept quiet. The psychological warfare being thrown around in the air towards femme boys, trans folk, and queer people was so hard to take in. I was accused of being gay by the way I acted – I had not even had the chance to explain myself and accusations were being thrown down into the water. I toughened up mentally and withstood years of this abuse. I did not completely understand myself and tried to leave my desires and wants to the side because of fear of damnation, both from God and from the people around me, who strangely, I feared more than God themselves.
The universe knew that It was dangerous for me to fully embrace myself. I did not know who I was, but If I continued on that route I most definitely would have had gone through strange conversion therapies and emotional and mental abuses that I was not equipped for. This was still true even when I realized I liked different genders years down the line.
It took years of pain and the suppression of many of my feelings to be able to survive and to be in the assured place that I am in now. I am strong and I am sure of who I am as a femme, queer person of color. Some people are fully in the closet and whilst maybe they face accusations, their friends or family do not know. This is who I was for so many years. This has both its negatives and its positives – but you should never force anyone to come out. You can give someone advice and options, but you can never put someone into a place where they have to decide between their sanity and their sexuality. Through the years, I had more time to discover who I was. It took sweat, pain, tears, pornography, and forcing myself to be someone who I was not to finally smile in the mirror and say: "Estevan, this is who you are."
I am currently living with someone who does not accept me for who I am, but this same person knows that they cannot infringe on my identity anymore. I have shook, destroyed, shifted, dismantled, and created my own identity. There is not one person who can make me feel like my queerness is wrong, invaluable, and undesirable. I feel the safest when I am around my queer friends. I can be loud, femme, and me. When I'm in cis-het spaces though, I know my place. I mentally and emotionally know who I am, so not matter what, no one can take who I am away from me anymore.
Do not force anybody to come out. Do not shove them out of the closet for them. Why? You might be putting them in a position where they will be abused.
Instead of questioning someone's sexuality, you should be making sure they are safe and feeling safe. Many queer kids are more worried about surviving than figuring out their queer identities and it is heartbreaking. Make sure you check in on your friends and family, because you might not know if they are suffering. If your friend or family member is desperately wanting to come out, though, give them a hand, and make sure they have resources and a plan laid out in case of rejection. Everyone wants something different and has different circumstances so we should never speak for anyone else. I wish strength, love, and valor for the hearts and minds of those who have read this article. You are so worth it.
I leave you on a final word: growing up, the psychological warfare was a freaking wildfire after another. It was me against the ten thousand people I told you about earlier. I won those battles all on my own, without a sword or a shield, but with the power of my heart. You can and will win, too. You will win in your own way.
Estevan Hernandez (they/them) was born in Brazil and currently resides in Southern California.

Erich Hartmann
American, b. Germany 1922, d. USA 1999 (Estate)
A large portion of my work is concerned with people because people are the most inventive and news-making part of our lives. Yet I am as much attracted to the evidence of their presence and efforts, whether good or evil, as I am to the people themselves. "
Born in Munich, Erich Hartmann was 16 years old when he went with his family in 1938 to Albany, New York, as a refugee from Nazi Germany. The only English speaker in the family, he worked in a textile mill, attending evening high school and later taking night courses at Siena College. He enlisted in the US Army, serving in England, France, Belgium and Germany. At the end of the war he moved to New York City, where he worked as an assistant to a portrait photographer and then as a freelancer.
Hartmann first became known to the wider public through his work for Fortune magazine in the 1950s. His poetic approach to science, industry and architecture shone through the photo essays 'Shapes of Sound', 'The Building of Saint Lawrence Seaway' and 'The Deep North'. He later did similar essays on the poetics of science and technology for French, German and American Geo and other magazines. Invited to join Magnum in 1952, he was for many years on the board of directors, becoming president in 1985.
Throughout his career, he pursued many long-term personal projects, and photographic interpretations with literary echoes: Shakespeare's England, Joyce's Dublin, Thomas Hardy's Wessex. He also explored abstract representations of ink-drops in water, patterns of laser light, and the beauty of tiny components of technology. In his later years he photographed the remains of the Nazi concentration camps, resulting in a book and exhibition, In the Camps. At the time of his death he was engaged in a photo project he called 'Music Everywhere.'
Erich Hartmann died in New York City on 4 February 1999.

Political Statement on Welcoming a Zionist Academic into the American University of BeirutPosted on
On the third and fourth of September 2018, 2016 Nobel Laureate Sir Fraser Stoddart, Scottish-born chemist, delivered two lectures in AUB. In addition, Stoddart was the guest speaker at this year's Opening Ceremony. His visit to AUB was highly advertised and publicized by both the Chemistry Department and the AUB administration.
It was later brought to light that earlier this year, Stoddart presented his academic work in the occupied territories as part of the celebrations for the "70th Birthday of Israel". His lecture, although scientific, came in a highly politicized context, as Stoddart congratulated the Zionist State "on making it for 70 years with such a spectacular output certainly in the Sciences," in his opening remarks. While Stoddart and other Zionists worldwide are celebrating the occupation's 70th birthday, Palestinians look back at 70 years of injustice, displacement, and incessant bloodshed. Starting with the Nakba of 1948, through the 1967 war, the unfair and unfulfilled Oslo Accords agreed upon 25 years ago, the wars on Gaza and the West Bank, up until the recent United States' cuts in UNRWA funding, the already-dire situation of Palestinians, whether in Palestine or as refugees worldwide, is worsening.
With the growing tendency to separate academics from politics, any and all scientific "achievements" of the illegitimate state of Israel have come hand in hand with apartheid, war, and human rights violations. The Boycott Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign is gaining momentum in different regions around the world, and has become an integral form of resistance against the Zionist occupation of Palestine. The cultural boycott of the Zionist State, a course of action taken by several universities globally, including some in the United States, England, Germany, France, among other countries, is not being applied by the leading university in the Middle East, AUB.
The Secular Club condemns the AUB administration's devaluation of cultural boycott, evident through the presence of Nestle Toll House on campus, the inclusion of Israel as a possible location for a workshop in an email sent by AUB Career Services, and the hosting of Fraser Stoddart. The Secular Club considers the BDS campaign and cultural boycott necessary elements of anti-Zionist activism. In addition, the Secular Club supports civil disobedience movements in Palestine aimed at protesting Zionist policies and believes that the protection of Palestinian refugees and supporting them in the face of the racism they face in different countries, including Lebanon, is a significant step in fighting for the Palestinian cause.

Modern Residence in Hungary Oriented Towards a Garden Pond
After presenting the Lake Side Duplex House by Tóth Project Architecture Office, another modern residence from the studio caught our attention. The Garden Pond building can be found in a quiet, suburban residential park of Mosonmagyaróvár, in north-western Hungary. It is a one-family house for four persons. The layout and the functional connections got a special attention from the architects, since the one-family house reflects the practices of the members. The T-shape ground plan strings the rooms after each other in the simplest functional order. The outside appearance is fundamentally determined by three materials. The dark, rusty façade covering emphasizes the mass of the day block; it is enclosed by the white plastered building block. The greyish stone facing beside the entrance runs out both inside and outside along the wall forming the main axis of the whole building.
The interior design is also characterized by simplicity and individuality both in materials, colors and furniture. For furnishing, functionality and comfort were of primary importance, in order to preserve the spaciousness of the rooms. The surface combinations of white color and wooden effect dominate the entire house. The long circulation area is loosened with dark ribs which connect the spaces to each other running along the interiors.

We are Customising Wordpress Admin to build a biz application. WE are using Wordpress as a base to build our application. We used the Add Post page as Add Customer - customised some fields and we posted it to the db using wp_post . Now we want to add two more menu's like Add Vendor, Add Employees ( which should work very similar to the Post Page) and should go to different tables .
We considered Wordpress Admin for Add customer because, we could automatically get Autodraft, commenting, Tag etc., Now we want the same for the other screens that we plan to add.
Now, when we are writing code for the new screens, by default it is getting posted to wp_post table where as it has to go to our new tables that we have designed. We are not sure what is the right approach. Pls advice.
Thanks in Advance

Win 7 Pro, 32 bit stuck at Black Screen during boot up
When Win 7 pro (32 bits) boots up, as we all notice, there is a second or so when there is a black screen, w/ just your mouse cursor, and then you are supposed to see the blue Welcome screen.
In the past 2 months, my computer is stuck at that black screen about 7 times, as recent as tonight. I've done a clean install w/ the latest Nvidia driver 2 weeks ago. No change. It looks like win 7 Pro is stuck there and waiting for something as my hard drive light blink on and off.
So, I would do nothing, or sometimes I would disconnect the HDMI port connects to my 3rd PC Panel (see below), and I would wait for 5 min. or so. Then my login logo shows up, I click it, and I got to windows.
Now, w/ the normal boot up, I don't have that login logo, win 7 pro will simply boot up directly to win 7 main screen after I turn on the computer.
Some1 said this could be IRQ sensing problem of the video card. But so far, I have no proof on that 1 way or the other:
All these started about 2 months ago, at or near the same time when the Sharp LED TV technician came to my house and upgraded all the firmware, including the firmware that consumers can't download, to my Sharp LED LCD TV, as the power button wasn't working.
Then in the past 2 mth., every time I turned on my LCD TV, which is connected to my computer as the 3rd screen via a DVI to HDMI cable, Win 7 senses this 3rd panel, and the screen went black and back on again. This isn't the way it used to be: as it WAS NOT SWITCH TO THE HDMI PC PORT.
My Sharp LCD has 4 HDMI output. Tonight for e.g., I was on Input 2, which is satellite, but as soon as I turn on the Sharp LCD, win 7 senses this 3rd screen, and the screen do that black screen then back on again w/ the music charm note.
This was not the way it used to be, in the past yr., w/ this same set up, win 7 only went to the black screen and back on when I switch to Input 1, which is PC at 1920x1080.
And I don't know if the above is related to the boot up lock up or not.

Black screen issues are most often related to corrupted or outdated drivers. It's no longer just the video drivers that are a problem - it can be the storage drivers, the chipset drivers, or even more drivers.
The most likely fix is to update all drivers - but even then it may not fix things for you. I'd suggest trying a monitor driver for the Sharp TV - but have no idea if any are available.
Make sure that you have a System Restore point set (and a bootable System Repair disc) to use if the black screen can't be gotten around using other methods.
FYI - at work (a PC shop) we don't bother to fix black screen problems. We try System Restore. If it doesn't work, we backup the data, wipe the hard drive with DBAN, and then reinstall Windows. In the past we could spend 2 weeks working on a system and still not fix the black screen.

Thanks. Since I'm trying to avoid spending a lot of time to rebuild a sys., I would try to update those other drivers first. So you don't see this as a video card IRQ problem then?
|My System Specs
|27 Jun 2012
Unfortunately the only surefire test for a bad video card is to try another video card.
The tests that we use will help ID problems - but they don't ID all problems with a card.
Most people only use the default monitor drivers included in Windows - so you won't usually see monitor issues because of that. But as this is an unusual problem, we do have to consider those also. My concern is that the Windows monitor drivers may not use the functions that the monitor is trying to request - leading to a black screen issue (this is hypothetical, so we're really just guessing here).
Good luck!

Wednesday night's forum for City Council candidates proved that memories are long in Boca Raton, particularly where George Barbar's downtown development plans are concerned.
Several of the questions put to incumbents Alan Alford and Al Travasos and challenger Genny Hazelip dealt with their stands on this and related issues supposedly resolved in a referendum last June.
The incumbents answered that they did what they thought was best at the time, while the challenger repeated her long-standing claim that the City Council should have sought out and heeded the views of its constituents.
More than 120 people attended the forum, which was sponsored by the League of Women Voters, the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce and the Boca Raton News.
Hazelip told the audience the decisive vote against the Barbar project, which council members had approved two months earlier, "proved that they had been out of touch with the people."
Travasos pointed out that public opinion was far from unanimous, that supporters and opponents of the project were equally vocal. Given this division of opinion, Alford said, the council had to use its best judgment.
"That's what we're up there for, to make a decision, he said.
Travasos and Alford also said they are always available to the public.
"No one who's ever called my office has not had his phone call returned," Travasos said.
"I live here, I work here, my work number is listed, my home number is listed," Alford said. "I don't think I'm out of touch."
Both incumbents, but Travasos in particular, faced tough questioning on contributions to their campaigns.
One question concerned the wisdom of accepting money, as both men have, from attorneys who plead cases before the council.
Travasos said contributions have never swayed his thinking and listed several occasions when he voted against the interests of big donors. Alford noted that several of his decisions also went against large contributors.
"If I were these guys," Alford said, "I might say, 'Let's give Mrs. Hazelip the money -- she might give us a fair hearing.' "
Hazelip said she would not accept such contributions.
"I don't want to step into that gray area," she said.
Travasos also was asked about his promise during his last campaign not to vote on issues involving George Barbar, some of whose insurance he handles. One such vote he cast involved the downtown project.
Travasos said he consulted with the city attorney before casting the vote. He said the attorney told him that declaring the conflict of interest fulfilled requirements of the law and that not voting would violate the law.

Greenpeace activists paint two gigantic cracks on the 32 year old nuclear reactor dome at Borssele, Netherlands. The Dutch government wants to keep the plant, one of the world's oldest, open beyond 2013, despite inherent safety and security risks.
Climate change is a priority issue for us here at Greenpeace. Disruptions to ecosystems will likely harm everything from minke whales to coral reefs to polar bears. Whole forests will be lost, and hundreds of thousands of species will become extinct. Climate change will bring devastation to people and communities, especially some of the world's poorest.
Certainly, a big part of our job is bringing home to people everywherethe realities of climate change and the struggle against it. To name names, protest corporations, shame governments - while helping make climate change solutions a reality.
Our expeditions document the impacts of climate change on people and ecosystems. Our professional negotiators, scientists and policy expertsattend world climate conferences and persuade decision makers to take action. Our volunteers and cyberactivists keep up the pressure on lawmakers and corporations. Our activists put their safety and freedom on the line for even the smallest chance to change the world.
Luckily enough, Greenpeace is itself only part of a much larger movement towards positive energy policy. We are fortunate to work with and beside many other environmental organisations, as well as many companies, governments and individuals who share our dedication, optimism and belief that there is a solution for every problem.
If you would like to be a part of this global movement, and like how wework, please choose to volunteer, sign up as a cyberactivst, and/orsupport us financially. For more ways to help see the Take Action page.
