— Falco
Falco Hochstadt (火忍者企鹅) otherwise known as The Guy With The Flame or by the name 法尔科 is a Fire Ninja and a member of the Hochstadt family. An integral member of the Venturous Three, Falco is a master of fire manipulation and the martial arts, having inherited his abilities from his family, honing them under Sensei and Fuut Ga's guidance. His powers have proven useful on his many quests and misadventures as one of the Venturous Three, challenging foes and standing up to the forces of evil alongside adventurer and explorer Wikipenguino45 and his puffle, Terry Van Furry.
Throughout his many years of adventuring adventuring He loves Card-Jitsu, mainly Card-Jitsu Fire. Falco learnt martial arts from his relative, Fuut Ga Hochstadt and is a decent fighter and still trains to this day. He never gives up and loves adventure. What makes him known to many penguins is his ability to manipulate and create fire. He never abuses his powers or uses them on other penguins, unless they are evil, or he has to.
Falco has gone on many (and most of them crazy) adventures with his best friend Wikipenguino and his best friend's puffle, Terry Van Furry. He is also an agent of the Elite Penguin Force and has went on many missions for them, too. One of the things many others know about him is that he and his friend, Wikipenguino (and sometimes Terry Van Furry) have traveled into the Darktonian Realm and took photos of many mysterious things going on in there. Falco has been to the 2016 Summer Olympics with Wikipenguino, Terry Van Furry and his mysterious time traveling friend, Lance X. Penguin. Falco also owns a WaddleTube channel, where he plays all sorts of games, uploads funny videos of pranks, vlogs, and other stuff. He also sometimes does collaboration videos with Wikipenguino.
Falco isn't the smartest penguin, and doesn't like maths whatsoever. Falco travels to the Dojo at least twice a week to train, and to play Card-Jitsu and Card-Jitsu Fire against other competitors and players. Falco shares a rather bitter rivalry with Ninja O'Dark, and the two often compete to try and be the best fire ninja in Club Penguin Island. Falco is also good friends with the other ninjas such as Green Ninja, Psyche and Spider880. Falco enjoys traveling to the Asiapelago, especially back to Moon Island for a few days. Falco is also known for practicing sometimes dangerous tricks around the island using his powers. Falco is also aware of the BoF's existence.

Early Years[edit]
Falco's egg was laid in a small igloo to Julia and Gerald Hochstadt in Moon Island. Unfortunately on a visit to Club Penguin, they both vanished days before he was hatched for unknown reasons but were known to have last been seen at King George's Island while they left Falco's egg at his grandfather's igloo whom they were visiting a few hours before. Falco's grandfather took care of the egg especially after he heard the news that Falco's parents had both disappeared. A few hours before Falco was hatched, his grandfather, without knowing the outcome, left the fire amulet next to Falco's egg, causing the power of it amulet to affect it mysteriously, giving Falco it's powers and giving special properties to his cells making him weaken due to the close presence some objects or items. Falco's grandfather discovered his mistake when Falco accidentally used his powers when he was 5 after concentrating hard while staring at a rock causing it to burst into flame.
Thinking how dangerous for Falco to obtain even more power from it and keep him from doing anything wrong with it, he gave it to the Super Brothers and Happyface who promised to keep it safe. Falco often wondered where his parents disappeared to, especially after his grandfather told him, and he often felt very sad. Though he managed to make himself not get sad over where they went, he did extra research by even going through into the woods where Falco soon learnt how to use his powers while his grandfather, Baron Hochstadt took him to Fuut Ga and Jock Hochstadt to train him how to become a ninja and master his powers at a very young age. Falco was soon good at what he did, especially being able to fully control fire. At school, Falco was sometimes bullied which angered him once to the point of using his powers. The bullies never came back to fight him, after seeing what they saw, and were terrified every time they saw him though nobody believed them.
Despite this, slowly, Falco learnt how not to use his powers whenever he was angry, and calmed down slightly. He never revealed to anyone and only shared this secret with his other trusted relatives that he owned speical fire creating abilites. Falco learnt how to use his powers to do all kinds of tricks, techniques while some of them turned out dangerous. He found out that he could steal fire when he was practicing on the fireplace back in his igloo. Falco's grandfather advised Falco to not use powers in doors, as there would be catastrophic consequences especially after accidentally setting the table on fire. He discovered his ability to fly for a few seconds when he was testing out all kinds of random tricks outdoors but couldn't control it for long.
Teenage Life[edit]
Falco was taken to the dojo by his grandfather to see an "old friend". It turned out, they were there to see Toshi Kojima, who was a good friend of Falco's grandfather. There, Falco trained and learn how to play Card-Jitsu as well as master the element of fire as a Fire Ninja and soon became a black belt as well as a Fire Ninja after a few weeks. Falco sometimes went there by himself, since he really liked the place, but was careful not to overuse his powers in case he burned the Dojo down. After a few months, around the time when he was 17, he traveled with his grandfather to see his old house back in Moon Island. Even though he'd gotten used to where he lived, he did want to go back and live there. After a few more months, Falco, in his spare time, started using his powers to do all sorts of things for himself, such as lighting candles and making toast, and found this very convenient.
Falco and his grandfather returned to see Fuut-Ga to complete his training. There, he started learning martial arts from him, and even trained by fighting him, and playing card-jitsu with him. In his spare time, he would sometimes train against his grandfather without using powers or weapons. Falco slowly learned how not to use his powers and control his emotions to avoid doing so. Around this time, he also learned how to overcome his fears (including his fear of thunderstorms). Fuut-Ga, Sensei and Baron all believed it was now safe enough for Falco to take responsibility for his powers, and trusted him to keep them under his control which Falco promised to do.
Around this time, Falco decided to start a WaddleTube channel called NinjaFalco16, where he would upload videos of himself playing video games such as Penguin Kart, Super Smash Mates-Jitsu, Super Smash Mates Brawl and Blockcraft. Falco's channel also gained more attention when he started uploading vlogs of himself using his powers to do everyday normal things and making them look cooler. Though many passed this off as a hoax, his viewers still enjoyed his videos anyways. Falco gained around 40,000 subscribers by early 2010, which slowly but surely continued to rise over the next five years.
College Life[edit]
Falco went to Beacon University, Club Penguin where he studied. He managed to get his own igloo and moved out of his grandfather's house. One day, during a weekend, he decided to go and play Card-Jitsu at the dojo. On his way there, he met fellow student, Wikipenguino45 who asked him which was the proper way and after he showed him and played a full match of Card-Jitsu with him, they became good friends. At some point, Falco found out that his parent's disappearance had something to do with Darktan and had ever since been trying to find them. Wikipenguino and Falco agreed to try and infiltrate their way into the Darktonian Realm no matter how scared they were but were determined to find out as much as possible about Darktan.
They managed to take a photo of a room that Darktan was inside and bring back this photo. Dr Infinity, who had made his nephew, Wikipenguino, an agent in the EPF decided that Falco could help out, as well and sent him an invitation to come to the Everyday Phoning Facility. After Falco came, he used his fire powers to destroy the power box during the last phase of the test and escaped only to find out that an elevator had opened up from one of the pillars. He went into it and came down into the EPF HQ where Wikipenguino explained everything. Falco went on several missions during his time as an EPF agent every now and then. During a perfectly regular day in 2012, Falco witnessed the creation of Wikipenguino X. After he managed to flee, Falco and Wikipenguino immediately returned to the EPF base to track him.
Falco and Wikipenguino travelled around the USA though Wikipenguino X left barely anything that they could follow to find him. On a trip to Snow Freezecisco, they came across some penguins on skateboards bullying some chicks. After Wikipenguino confronted them, they chased him. Falco decided to help him out and took a different route that would take him in front of the skateboarding penguins. He managed to scare them off by screaming and setting himself on fire while running towards them which made the skateboarders retreat.
After two years of tracking, searching, without much luck of capturing him, Wikipenguino X kidnapped Wikipenguino45 and Wikipenguino was brought into the Darktonian Realm for the creation of Wikipeng4500. After fighting off Wikipenguino's clone, the trio escaped and for the past 3 months, received news of attacks and robberies concerning Wikipeng4500. During a battle against the evil S.H.A.R.K., Wikipeng4500 was convinced that he shouldn't be evil, and turned on his creator. After Wikipenguino X shot him and attempted to flee, Falco managed to shoot a fireball at the jet's wing while the S.H.A.R.K. members flew away with jet packs.
Falco joined Wikipenguino and Terry Van Furry on several adventures around Antarctica and across many other countries and soon, the three became the best of friends who did many things together from practising tricks with fire to performing all sorts of dangerous stunts during their adventures. Falco continued to venture all over the Antarctican continent to respond to Elite Penguin Force missions as well as adventure-seeking with Wikipenguino and Terry Van Furry. On multiple occasions they came across the S.H.A.R.K. and sometimes even Wikipenguino X himself. The trio however, still lived to tell the tale, and nevertheless had an entertaining experience whenever they returned home.
Journey of a Ninja[edit]
Main page: Falco/future
Falco has been involved in many EPF missions as he is also an agent. Many times, he and Wikipenguino have attempted to venture into the Darktonian Realm to find information on Darktan and if possible, apprehend him. He, like Wikipenguino, also loves exploring and sometimes, while doing this alongside him, they both get into more trouble then they ask for. Whenever this happens, Falco does his best to fight whatever evil might come their way using his abilities and training. Falco participated in the Power4U Affair, and fought off Super Penguins around Antarctica. Falco never has any intention to let evil wreak havoc while he can prevent it, especially when he's eager to try out new tricks and moves on something.
As Falco is a ninja, he trains mainly in the dojo, most of the time when he's bored, or got no tricks to practice, or just heads up to the dojo whenever he wants, anyways. Falco is loyal to Sensei, and sometimes goes on quests or missions for him. Usually when he's practicing in the dojo, he'll challenge Sensei to either Card-Jitsu or Card-Jitsu Fire. Falco doesn't do WaddleTube that often, but uploads at least three videos every week, and sometimes does collaboration videos with other WaddleTubers, mostly Wikipenguino45.
Falco's hobbies include practising tricks such as throwing snowballs in the air and blowing them up before they hit the ground and using his abilities on a random rock lying around and seeing if and how many times it would take for it to break. Like Wikipenguino, Falco loves being able to adventure around Antarctica and whether he encounters danger or trouble, nevertheless enjoys the thrill after it's all over. He also enjoys playing Card-Jitsu and Card-Jitsu Fire, especially against Sensei for a challenging game even though he's already a ninja. Falco can easily win against a very inexperienced player, but whether or not he wins or loses, congratulates or says "good game" and wishes the player good luck for the next game. Falco enjoys reading books, especially comic books, and often spends any time in which he's got nothing better to do to sit down and enjoy reading.
He also likes video games like his best friend, and still plays games every once or twice a week or every once in a while on his channel. Falco's adventuring spirit always urges Falco to keep on searching for mysteries and danger which he very much enjoys doing with his two other best friends whether it's for fun or for a challenging quest.
Falco almost always wears a ninja suit complete with a black belt and ninja mask that he obtained sometime after training to be a ninja which he liked so much, that he decided to keep it on most of the time. His blond hair is always visible over the top of his suit. Falco has dark black feathers underneath the suit. Before he got his ninja suit, he used to wear shirts, hoodies and whatever belt he was at the time. On a rare occasion, Falco dons a pair of Cloud Wave Bracers, but doesn't really use them because he doesn't really know how, but will sometimes just wear it for the look. Falco has dark grey eyes, though they are almost barely noticeable and look black most of the time.
Falco was originally born with light gray feathers as a chick, but slowly, his feathers darkened over time, completely turning darker black by the time Falco turned 19. Falco sometimes carries a pack of Card-Jitsu cards with him for whenever he wants to play Card-Jitsu, but also uses them for battle outside of the dojo, but rarely uses them in battle. Before Falco got his ninja suit, he Falco always used to wear his ninja amulet alongside whatever coloured belt he had most recently earned and a pair of wooden sandals like many ninjas do.
Falco is able to manipulate and create fire. This means he can blast it at other penguins, "steal" fire from candles, fireplaces, lighters or any sort of fire. He can turn fire into fireballs and he can project fire downwards onto the ground kind of allowing him to fly but he's never been able to stay in the air for more than at least 6 seconds. Falco also has the ability to heat things up using his flippers, and can use this technique to melt objects, boil water or overheat machines. Falco's powers also give him some sort of immunity to fire, meaning he can't get burnt, at least not to most high temperatures. Falco sometimes uses cloud bracers and card-jitsu cards, which he has experience with as well.
He has another strategy he calls "Inferno Mode" which makes him get supercharged. Whe he activates this, his powers are strengthened by 80% his eyes glow bright and fiery and he gradually produces flames around himself until he is surrounded by them. This, however, is very, very dangerous because the more he uses his powers in Inferno Mode, the stronger the flames get and can quickly burn down a small village if he does this. Another downside is that the more he does this, the more he exhausts himself. Even 10 minutes in this mode is guaranteed to make him faint or even go into a coma. Falco will only go into Inferno Mode if he really has to and if it is the only option he has so he saves this as an ultimate Plan Z.
After the events of Falco's Journey, Falco's powers temporarily vanished as a result of Crimson using an item known as the Absorption Charm to "steal" his powers. Though Falco's powers were never truly "stolen" from the Absorption Charm, they were severely depleted in the aftermath, though he was able to gradually learn how to use them again.
Falco has many different weaknesses and these are a few known ones.
- Pie - If there is any kind of food Falco likes the best it's PIE. Pie doesn't weaken Falco in anyway, though he usually falls for eating it and it makes him go crazy when he sees it and activates something similar to Phreaker Mode. Falco loves eating any kind of pie and if he finds it randomly outside, he'll most likely sprint towards it. He tries to lay off pie, but this strange frenzy mode is inevitable.
- X-Virus - Falco dreads the X-Virus and always goes quiet and still if near it because it's his worst fear. He fears that one day, he'll be infected and Falco X will be made and Darktan will have a minion that can control fire and destroy cities and possibly countries. If given the chance, he'll run away from the X-Virus if it comes an inch more closer to him.
- Doom Weed - Doom Weed, with all it's strange and mysterious properties is something that Falco is allergic to. If Falco comes within a few inches of Doom Weed, (unless encased in a protective box) he starts to choke for a few seconds and his powers are neutralized until he gets away from it. Also, it makes him feel weak, tired, dizzy. It also slightly obstructs his vision, making everything look fuzzy and unclear and slows his regeneration (if he is already hurt, any wounds that are healing are slowed down greatly) until he can escape. Forcing him to consume Doom Weed could kill him and neutralize his powers for possibly more than a year.
Falco fights on the side of good, (or at least does what he believes is the right thing) and strives to defend the continent with his friends whenever his help is required. To groups like S.H.A.R.K., he is seen as a nuisance, and only getting in the way of them doing "what was supposed to be done" and claiming that they were simply "relieving Antarctica of unworthiness and incompetent leaders who rule it". Falco is also loyal to penguins like Sensei, the Hochstadt Gang, Hochstadt Family and his grandfather, Baron Hochstadt all of who he deems trustworthy and is most of the time always willing to follow their orders. Falco is also a Fire Ninja, and would normally side with them.
Falco is a normally happy penguin who loves tricks, dares and comedy. Falco is friendly, brave, and usually not afraid to start a conversation with anyone. He'll always be willing to put himself in harm's way in place of his friends or family if he really had to, and becomes serious in times of great danger, or if a friend is hurt. He shows interest in stories and mysteries, and loves adventures as much as his friends do. He's always eager to use his powers to draw attention from others, and likes performing all kinds of tricks, mostly regardless of whether or not they may seem reckless sometimes. Falco acts competitive in games, mostly card jitsu and card-jitsu fire (he's terrible at water) even though he's already quite good at it. Even if he doesn't win, he accepts that at the end of the day it's all just a good game and accepts defeat.
Falco is also excitable and a heroic wannabe, wanting to help others in danger and perhaps one day join his relatives and fight evil in the Hochstadt Gang. Falco was in a mood of trauma ever since he found out he never got to meet his parents in person. Falco stands up and fights to protect his friends from harm, danger and from anyone that means to hurt them physically or emotionally and tries to console them whenever they feel more disappointed than usual. Though he may be a little immature, he still shows care and concern when it is needed.
Falco's diet mainly consists of an average penguin's diet including salmon, tuna, pizza, ice cream, soda and pie. Pie is something that for some reason makes him go slightly crazy in a case similar to Fred 676 but he loves it anyways. Falco doesn't suffer from Fat or any other diseases or dangerous symptoms except for being a Class III Fourth Wall Breaker. Falco is usually outside most of the time and every time he uses his fire powers, he burns off more calories and energy which is one of the things that keep him fit. Falco also loves Hot Sauce, and prefers to have it with his food if there is any available.
Since Falco usually runs whenever he's adventuring or on a mission with Wikipenguino and they are sometimes required to travel at a much faster pace to achieve their goals, he is also kept fit since they adventure quite a lot.
Wikipenguino and Falco both had similar ideas when it came to brainstorming which might have been the reason that makes them so compatible and hardly ever get into fights or aguments. Falco became friends with Wikipenguino after they both had a conversation after they met on their way to the Dojo in Club Penguin when Wikipenguino got lost on a path to the Dojo and backtracked to the Mine where he met Falco. The duo both went to the dojo where they played several games of Card-Jitsu together while Falco helped Wikipenguino learn how to play and the basics of the game. They became friends shortly after the match and have been best friends ever since. Together, they have went on many adventures and a few involve venturing into the Darktonian Realm.
Lance X. Penguin[edit]
Falco and Lance cooperate reasonably well and know each other quite well, too. Falco, however is more playful while Lance is much more mature and serious. Despite this, they still get along with each other very well and he still laughs at Falco's jokes. Ever since Lance came to Club Penguin, Falco has been begging him to tell him whether or not he became Sensei or what he can do in the future. Lance normally refuses and simply tells him that all will be revealed in good timing. Far from stopping him asking, Falco still hasn't given up his interest and is still waiting for a chance for Lance to tell him.
Terry Van Furry[edit]
Falco often thinks of Terry's constant love of talking about and mentioning anything mathematical or nerdy and his reluctance to go on adventures with them as irritating, but nevertheless, they are still far from enemies. Falco usually tries to change the subject whenever Terry dives into the world of mathematics or tries to throw him off topic to keep him from rambling. Falco also thinks of his habit of saying "What could possibly go wrong?" as a nuisance since whenever he says that specific sentence, something bad usually happens. The cause of this is still unknown to both of them. Falco is still thankful for having Terry on the team, however, mainly because he's the smartest and can sometimes ease their way out of tight situations.
Darktan II[edit]
Falco wants justice for his family just as much as Wikipenguino45 does and will do anything to find them. Falco wants to capture Darktan in hope of interrogating him into leading him to his parents' whereabouts. He has gladly agreed with Wikipenguino to one day attempt to find him and bring him to justice. Darktan is the one villain Falco sincerely hates, not only for being responsible for the disappearance of his parents, but his evil misdeeds and the harm he has caused to countless others and their homes.
Wikipenguino X[edit]
Falco and Wikipenguino X don't really come across each other as much or even interact as he does with his host, but Falco has still taken a disliking to him for his various acts of terrorism, evil, greed and pure cruelty. Falco also wants to defeat him as badly as his best friend does, and see justice delivered to him once and for all and have him put behind bars for good. Wikipenguino X and Falco are also much better suited for combat, as Wikipenguino X does not know Falco's moves as well as he knows his host's and he can be potentially outsmarted by Falco's fighting techniques and flame powers.

Penukonda was an important place in Vijayanagara empire. It is said to be one of the capital cities. Within Penukonda fort, which covers a large area on plains and hills, are several monuments of Vijayanagara period.. Gagan Mahal, Thimmarasu Bandhikhane, Kashi Vishwanatha temple, Yogi Rama Swamy temple, Pasirakkari Bavi, Narasimha Swamy temple, Narasimha Swamy temple on the hill, ruins of fort walls, ruins of Muslim tombs.. to name a few. At the fort's eastern are several inscriptions of the walls, language could be Kannada or Telugu. A good portion of Penukonda town is within the fort. Even the civil court building seems to be a heritage from British times.
January 3, 2015
On the way from Bangalore to Hyderabad, I stopped to check out the fort. However, once inside the fort I realised how vast it was and the number of monuments it contained. It would easily need few days of tour to cover it. I first stopped at Gagan Mahal, the summer palace and harem of Vijayanagara kings. The monument's gate was locked, no idea where the care-taker was. So I moved on to Thimmarasu jail, a stone's throw from the palace. After the jail, close by were the two temples dedicated to Rama and Siva. Here's the gateway to Kashi Vishwanatha Gudi..

Last call
• Major League Baseball Players Association Executive Director Michael Wiener will be in Brewers camp Friday morning for his annual meeting with players. Chris Narveson, the team's union representative, said topics will likely include baseball's modified drug testing program and the potential expansion of instant replay. The Brewers recently re-elected Narveson as their player representative and Axford as assistant rep.
• Roenicke wants to see more of non-roster invitee catcher Blake Lalli this spring at first base and as a pinch-hitter before deciding if the team could use a roster spot on him moving into the regular season. The Brewers manager likes the versatility Lalli would give the club if it needs to use Jonathan Lucroy or Martin Maldonado earlier in games in run scoring situations.
"It allows us to pinch-hit Luc or Maldy, whichever isn't playing, when we have a chance to score runs," Roenicke said. "I would like to be able to use them but when you don't have another guy who can catch, you have to wait. Lalli frees us up if we have a guy who can go back there."
In 33 spring at-bats so far, Lalli has 12 hits including three doubles. He has played 12 games as a catcher and two as a first baseman.
• Lucroy could play in a Minor League game Friday to get some extra at-bats in, according to Roenicke.
• Non-roster reliever Donovan Hand ran his Spring Training scoreless inning streak to 11 innings Thursday with two frames against the White Sox. He worked out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the eighth by inducing back-to-back groundouts.
• Center fielder Carlos Gomez left Thursday's game in the bottom of the third inning with a stiff back. Roenicke said, however, if it were the regular season, Gomez would've remained in the game.

Where Does Compassion Come From? The Truth About How Humanity Becomes More Compassionate
Saturday 27th October 2018
Most spiritually aware people will intuitively understand the vital need for compassion within human existence. More often it is noted for the ill effects of its absence. However it is only with a deeper understanding of what compassion is that it can increase within you and within humanity as a whole. Even without this deeper understanding the awareness that more compassion would benefit everyone makes this information of great value to you, even if you do not consider yourself spiritual.
Compassion is not the by-product of being loving though the two often are seen as hand in hand. However compassion is its own thing, distinct from love, healing, will and other energies or qualities. To understand where compassion comes from you first need to know that you have a soul and like all souls your soul has a number of "soul qualities". We will explain more about the individual soul qualities in the book that is to come but at this time we will focus on just compassion.
Compassion is a Soul Quality
Compassion is a soul quality, which means that your capacity for compassion is governed by the level of compassion in your soul. Every soul, and therefore every person, has at least a tiny amount of compassion. Every person has the capacity for compassion, though it may be very underdeveloped in some.
When you observe a person who is suffering then the amount of compassion you have will trigger a simultaneous response in your mental body and your emotional body. The more capacity for compassion you have the stronger the compassionate response in your mental and emotional bodies. This is not a conscious response and it cannot be premeditated. Your soul compassion triggers your mind to respond with "empathy" and at the same time your soul compassion triggers your emotional body to respond with "sympathy". These two vibrations, mental empathy and emotional sympathy combine to create the "energy of compassion" which permeates your aura in the chest region and radiates outwards. If the person you have compassion for is within about 2 miles distance of where you are then they will receive this energy of compassion in their aura.
Their emotional body will be affected by your energy of compassion resulting in them "feeling uplifted" and hence the vibrational state of their emotional body becomes more positive. A more positive emotional body will have a positive influence on their mind and they may pick up, at least at an unconscious level, on this change. The result of your compassion is that the recipient is emotionally uplifted.
It would be natural to assume that the act of showing compassion has increased your capacity for compassion, or that the recipient automatically becomes more compassionate. However this is not the case. Compassion is the unconscious reaction of your mind and emotions to the influence of your soul. Soul development however requires a conscious participation in the process. But since you cannot be deliberately compassionate then how do you become more compassionate?
When you are the recipient of compassion there are two things that can happen, you can be unconscious of it or you can be conscious of it. To help you understand this think of the following scenario. A child is riding their bicycle down a quiet rural street and falls off grazing their knee. In a nearby garden an elderly person sees the accident. The elderly person is not mobile enough to assist however being very compassionate they feel great empathy and sympathy for the fallen child.
In scenario A the child looks up and makes eye contact with the elderly person. In that moment the child recognises the compassion they are receiving.
In scenario B the child does not look up and so is unaware of the elderly observer.
In both scenarios the energy of compassion reaches the child but it is only in scenario A that the child recognises that they are receiving compassion. In that moment of conscious recognition, the child's own capacity for compassion increases.
Compassion is Contagious
You must receive compassion to grow in compassion; compassion is highly contagious. Having received compassion this child is more likely to demonstrate compassion in the future. But remember there must be some recognition by the mind of the recipient that they have received compassion, even if it is not intellectually voiced. Without the mind being aware, then although the energy of compassion is received and the emotional vibration uplifted, there is no increase in compassion of the recipient. Understanding all this is to understand that you do not give compassion with the goal of increasing a person's compassion, you give compassion simply because you are compassionate. The recipient of your compassion potentially benefits in two ways. Firstly, emotionally they feel uplifted, they feel loved and if they are consciously aware of the compassion then they feel more connected to others. It is easy to understand how this benefits humanity. Secondly if they are conscious of your compassion then their soul's level of compassion is increased and they will automatically become more compassionate towards others.
How Do You Become More Compassionate
Since this is all outside of the conscious control of mankind then the process of humanity evolving towards more compassion is slow. But there is one way in which you can increase your compassion. It requires you to be spiritually awake to the fact that you are part of something much bigger. As discussed in the channelled teachings about spiritual prayer (not religion) it was explained that you have a spiritual guide and that there are higher spiritual beings watching over you. When you pray with genuine compassion for the benefit of another person then these higher spiritual beings, which you can know as the Spiritual Hierarchy, recognise your genuine compassion and raise your soul's level of compassion further. It is important to emphasis that we said "when you pray with genuine compassion" because without genuine compassion there is no prayer. True prayers for another person always contain compassion. So much dogmatic praying within the limits of a religious faith is done from guilt or a sense of duty or routine, and so they lack compassion. Lacking compassion they are not heard and the person's level of compassion remains unchanged. Search deeply within yourself, be present in the moment and let your soul not your ego guide your prayers and your prayers will be enriched with compassion.
Some may ask "what if you pray for yourself?". Understand this, that you cannot have compassion for yourself, you can only experience sympathy for yourself. Recall that the energy of compassion is formed when empathy and sympathy combine. If you have only empathy for another then there is no compassion and you will be "cold" and emotionless in your response. You may be correct, you may be just but you will not help that person much.
If you have only sympathy for another, but lack empathy then your sympathy will become sorrow. Sorrow is a negative emotion and you will bring yourself and the other person down with your sorrow. There is only compassion when both sympathy and empathy combine. Because you can only experience sympathy towards yourself then you will only ever experience sorrow when you dwell on a negative experience. This is why you cannot experience compassion for yourself because your mind cannot empathise with itself.
You cannot increase your compassion for others through practice, desire, intention or asking your spiritual guide to help you grow in compassion. You can only increase your compassion through the action of genuine prayer. If you are lucky enough to receive compassion then you will become more compassionate. Now that you have this knowledge embrace prayer in its true meaning, and help compassion spread throughout humanity.
Categories: Channelled from Spiritual Hierarchy

See a list of all channelled articles, Click HERE.
When channelling, the average accuracy for someone is usually low. For example a person who is initiated into light and sound and therefore has more potential to channel is on average less than 20% accurate when communicating with their spiritual guide. What this means is that 80% of the time though they think they are channelling their spiritual guide they are actually just channelling their imagination.
I started meditating on Light and Sound in 1999 and realised enlightenment in 2009. I have spent hours each day since 2016 learning how to channel under the guidance of ascended masters of the Spiritual Hierarchy, so that I can accurately receive and share these articles with the public. Each article I channel comes directly from the ascended masters and I only write what is requested by them. Much of the early channelling work went straight into the book. To ensure accuracy every sentence is checked many times before publication and this is done not just by myself but by other experienced enlightened channellers. In my classes I teach meditators on The Way Back how to channel and communicate directly with their spiritual guides too. My goal is to empower people to have direct access to guidance from their spiritual guides who themselves are part of the Spiritual Hierarchy.
Information from the Spiritual Hierarchy is consistent but you will notice that guidance sometimes changes, for example in the case of "how to protect your energy". This is natural because as the humanity changes spiritually, then the potential of each meditator and their needs will evolve too. If information changes then I will revise the articles and place a note to that effect. - Mark

Preschoolers challenge stereotypical gender roles
According to research from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, a preschooler's gender determines how he or she is treated and responded to in play and learning activities, and when the children's possibilities become expanded, it is usually a result of the children's and not the teachers' initiative.
The Swedish preschool curriculum requires promotion of gender equality, but researchers at the University of Gothenburg's Department of Education, who performed gender analysis of 114 video sequences of six preschool groups (in total 45 hours of material), conclude that this may be easier said than done.
Different responses to questions
The analysis shows that girls' questions and comments are responded to differently (in a negative sense), that teachers tend to masculinise teaching tools and that masculinity is the norm in children's play and art work. These tendencies are reinforced in the interaction between teachers and children since teachers often have stereotypical ideas of what boys and girls are interested in.
Yet, the analysis also identified that boys and girls very often share play and learning with each other. Furthermore, they show great concern for each other by being helpful and taking responsibility for others' well-being regardless of gender.
Children may challenge existing structures
The analysis also shows how children manage to achieve border crossing at preschool, which causes stereotypical gender structures to change. An example of border crossing is when a LEGO figure that has been gender-defined by a teacher is redefined by a child from 'man' to 'mum'.
As Professor Ingrid Pramling Samuelsson and doctoral student Eva Ärlemalm-Hagsér write in the current issue of Pedagogisk Forskning i Sverige: 'Both children and teachers contribute to the creation and expression of gender structures at preschool.'
'But the study finds that it is the children that reformulate and expand their possibilities. There is not a single example in the material where teachers consciously challenge children to engage in border crossing.'

PepsiCo Introduces "F!ZZ" at World Maker Faire
F!ZZ, PepsiCo's' newest, most innovative line of soda drinks made its show-stopping debut this past weekend at Maker Faire 2015. F!ZZ is a new way PepsiCo is looking at the future of carbonated-soft drink mixology, which they call "Fizzology," that combines unique and unexpected flavors and ingredients to create an elevated and immersive consumer beverage experience.
Whether Maker Faire goers were attracted to the sleek & inviting, Willy Wonka-esque structure, the millions of bubbles that were being released over the course of the weekend or the upbeat music that was bumping and entertaining the consistent line of consumers eager to try F!ZZ, the popularity of the space surpassed all expectations.
The Experience:
Brand Ambassadors greeted Makers as they approached the entrance ramp and queued up groups of 10 to begin the experience. They began their sensorial journey by smelling flavored scent pipes which tied back to F!ZZ beverages that were offered. Consumers had the option to choose one of the six drinks that most appealed to them.
Each of the beverages began with a Pepsi-base pour, either Sierra Mist, Mountain Dew, Manzanita Sol or Pepsi and included unique toppings such as green apple cotton candy, strawberry pop rocks and watermelon foam to name a few. One of the most popular drinks of the weekend was the "Hulk Smash". The Hulk Smash was made up of Mountain Dew with a lime flavor shot, coconut milk and was topped with frozen lime syrup threads, pop rocks and raspberry foam.
Once the consumer settled on a drink, the group of 10 headed over to the "Fizz Ed" station where they learned to make frozen strawberry and lime "dots" using liquid nitrogen. They also were able to sample the dots that they helped make which was a fun and tasty experience had by consumers of all ages. Once they completed their lesson, they headed over to the Pepsi Spire station to fill up their beaker with their base pours & flavor shots. Following that, they brought their beaker over to one of the "Fizzologists" who then finished off their drink with their designated toppings and "re-FIZZED" their drink with added carbonation.
The bubbles and buzz around F!ZZ not only attracted Maker Faire attendees but the Maker Faire Executive team as well. F!ZZ Grab Life by the Bubbles powered by PepsiCo took home the blue ribbon by winning the "Maker Faire Editors Choice Award" for our outstanding activation. This was just the introduction of F!ZZ and we're excited to be a part of the F!ZZ movement and experience what the future of F!ZZ holds!

A move from New York City, where he was long a first-call percussionist, to South Florida sparked this career turn. The stark contrast of those two environs is writ large on the album cover, which features a photo shot in motion on the causeway between Miami Beach and the mainland. Clouds skitter above a shotgun row of palm trees, with the neon city vibrating along either side.
[SOMETHING ELSE! REWIND: Recalling the time that percussionist Sammy Figueroa sat in with Miles Davis and Mike Stern on a favorite 1980s-era deep cut, 'Fat Time.'.]
There's a similar sense of quickly glimpsed beauty across Urban Nature, from the onomatopoeic cha-chas found on the title track and Cha Cha Pa' Ti"; to the love-struck balladry of Queen from the South"; to bouyant, funny asides like Latin What?"; through to the curling journey that is 7th Door on Your Left," performed in an intriguing 7/8 meter. The band even takes a moment for a rumbling reprise of Cuco y Olga," originally made into a classic by Mongo Santamaria.
Yet for all of his album's rapid-fire bursts of information, for all of these dense harmonics that neatly mimic the busy clutter of a city street, Figueroa maintains a personable, inviting rhythmic flow. He's got the wheel, and he knows just where to go.
The Latin Jazz Explosion features the pianist Silvano Monasterios and fellow Venezuela product Gabriel Vivas on bass, as well as Alex Pope Norris on trumpet, saxophonist John Michalak and the young Puerto Rican drummer Nomar Negroni. Composer/arrangers Silvano Monasterios and Gabriel Vivas wrote seven of the nine piece specifically for this project. Urban Nature is Figueroa's third recording with this Grammy-nominated band, and his debut on Senator Records, an imprint created for Figueroa by Berlin's Senator Entertainment and Ashé Records. Special guests include Ed Calle on sax (who adds an impish joy to Latin What?"), Mike Orta on piano and Venezuelan percussionist José Gregorio Hernandez.

I'm waking up this morning to the news that Donald Trump will be our new president. Although our country is completed divided on this announcement, I am actually relieved to hear this. I voted for Donald Trump.
The truth is I was never sold on Trump as a person. I still have my own personal reservations with him; however, I decided to vote for the candidate who was most aligned with my values and ultimately against the Clinton Administration.
I've heard many times that we should separate church and state. As a Christian, I disagree. I will always put Him first in all my decisions including who to vote for as my Commander in Chief. When I was 18, I went with my Government class to the local voting precinct to register. Our teacher had spent months teaching us of the various stances of each party that would prepare us to make a decision on which party to affiliate ourselves. The Republican Party resonated with me most. I was and still am pro-life, a supporter of the 2nd Amendment, a believer in a strong military, a proponent of small business, etc. I could go in detail about why I feel the way I feel about each of these stances, but that is not why I'm writing this. What is needed to know is these are my values and beliefs, and they line up perfectly with conservatism. So, that day in my government class, I registered as a Republican and never looked back.
Maddox's 2016 Halloween Costume
"Third Party Candidate Nominee"
He was endorsed quite a bit that night.
I didn't vote for Obama in 2008 nor 2012. I didn't think he was a bad guy (still don't). I just didn't vote at all in 2008, and in 2012, I liked Romney better, but these last eight years, I've seen our country go down-economically and morally. Being a military spouse, I started to fear ISIS more than just an average American. We would hear about attacks on Americans or a possible threats on the military base where my husband worked. We were told families of military were getting targeted and to change our social media names, don't post any pictures military related, and even possibly take down our American flags that hung outside our homes so that we didn't bring attention to ourselves.
Aside from possible terrorism attacks, I would speak to my father about the rising cost of Obamacare that he didn't even want, but was forced to have. I watched our country start getting more racially divided. There was an increase in mass shootings, while trustworthy Americans were being threatened that their 2nd Amendment right was going to be taken away. The influx of illegal immigrants was beginning to get out of hand. I believe that with a Clinton Administration, these things would only not get better, they would actually get worse.
I need to be able to trust my President, and I do not trust Hillary Clinton. I do not need nor desire to get into the various reasons I find her untrustworthy. I honestly feel it is a bit of a rhetorical statement, since much of America feels the same way I do. I do not like her plans for our country. Those who work hard should reap the benefits and not be forced to pay for those who chose a different path. Looking at how I feel about her character, and then following my own personal values, I knew I was going to stick with the Republican nominee.
I'm nervous about Trump. He runs at the mouth, is arrogant, and a bit of a loose canon, but I'm still willing to take my chances with him knowing what I would get with Clinton. I like that he's not a politician. I am very impressed with Governor Pence, along with some the advisors Trump has. If this is any inkling of the type of decisions he will make while in the White House, I will feel great about my decision to cast my vote for him. I truly hope Trump does his best to keep his promises.
And…I really like Ivanka!

When images of Samsung's GT-B5330 Android came to our attention today, we were cautiously optimistic. After all, it's not that often that we get to see a portrait orientation QWERTY Android, and from a big name like Samsung, at that. The phone appears to be getting ready for the Chinese market, and we might be interested in keeping an eye on it in the hopes that Samsung decides to bring it to the West, were it not for some very disappointing hardware choices.
According to GLBenchmark figures, the GT-B5330 is in testing with Android 4.0.4; so far, so good. Things start to fall apart a little when we get to the handset's processor and display specs: if what's reported here is accurate, the GT-B5330 will run an 850MHz SoC, and feature a screen that only has a 320 x 240 QVGA resolution.
That's unfortunate, because even a few tweaks there might make the GT-B5330 a whole lot more interesting. With even a 1.2GHz single-core processor, and maybe a WVGA (or even 640 x 480, if we're not going wide) display, the GT-B5330 could be an exciting little model. As it stands, even if Samsung had global plans for the handset, it would be hard to get excited.
We'd love to Samsung deliver something along these lines but with some more modern hardware under the hood. It wouldn't sell GS3 numbers, but there's a dedicated group of smartphone users who demand hardware keyboards, and sensing that RIM's future looks shaky, are looking to jump ship for similar hardware on a non-BlackBerry platform. They could be yours, Samsung, if you just give them the options they're looking for.
Update: The GT-B5330's paperwork just hit the FCC, with nary a single 3G band to be seen.

Sony Mobile Communications
Today at IFA in Berlin, Sony CEO Kaz Hirai revealed that Xperia T, the latest smartphone from its new Xperia range is set to feature in Skyfall – the 23rd James Bond film and first to feature an Xperia smartphone from Sony.
We've been in the field with 007 before as Sony Ericsson, with gadgetry featured in previous missions Die Another Day, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace.
Sony Ericsson first partnered with Bond for Die Another Day starring Pierce Brosnan in 2002, using both the T68i and P800 in the film. Sony Ericsson phones have since featured in all Bond films, with the K800i and M600i making their debuts in Casino Royale, and the C902 bringing limited edition glamour to Quantum of Solace.
Xperia T will be part of a new range of smartphones available upon the film's release later this year. It features everything you'd expect from a Sony smartphone – stylish design, state-of-the-art specs, easy connectivity and access to premium entertainment experiences anywhere, anytime.
Xperia T provides Sony's best HD smartphone screen, camera and One-touch connectivity enabled by NFC, with key features including:
We'll be bringing you more details over the next few weeks, so keep your eyes fixed firmly on the blog!
From Xperia with love,

Imagine parents lamenting the amount of time their children were sitting in front of an entertaining screen. Only it was 40 years ago, and the screen was that of a television -- perhaps a black and white one at that. Chances are, there was only one in the house. Programs typically ran 30-60 minutes and could be turned off without cutting you or your children off from contact with friends, work, or school.
Fast forward to today. Text messages and Facebook messages arrive almost constantly. Kids communicate with friends almost entirely on screens. We feel lost when the Internet is unavailable, and kids often need it for school. It's immeasurably harder to separate our lives from screens. While I've heard some making a comparison between the lure of the screen and the alcoholic's need for a drink, it is easier to eliminate alcohol from one's home. I equate the struggle to that of a compulsive overeater. These days, screens are as ubiquitous as food, and we need both to do our jobs. Don't forget, though, you can binge on healthy food too.
What's a parent to do in the face of these challenges? With young children, we have more control. While educational computer games for the preschool set abound, it is important to limit the time spent on them. Better to teach a child to read with actual books. Better to teach about numbers with physical objects. Not that kids will learn faster this way. In fact, the flashier computer games probably offer more immediate gratification. But, if we don't expose them at early ages to how enthralling learning and life away from the screen can be, it will be infinitely harder to engage them later on. Read to them. Sing to them. Dance with them. Play with them outside -- not on the Wii fit. Help them find something they love, and then spark their curiosity. It will be much easier to limit screen time at age eight if they've developed interests (even fleeting ones) at age four.
For any age group, we need to model what we expect of them. As Michael Osit writes in Generation Text, it is important that our kids see us engaging with them and with each other. Such conscious parenting requires that we monitor our own screen use. If we pull out a Blackberry in the middle of a conversation, use our cell phone while driving, look at our cell phones every time we hear that a text has arrived, and always have the computer on, we are demonstrating that these devices are indispensable and merit more attention than the people around us. Kids need to see that we enjoy activities away from screens. Just as we want ten year-olds to spend time together without being in front of a screen together, so, too, do we need our kids to see us visiting face-to-face with friends, engaged in conversation or joint activities. They need to see us relaxing, reading, talking and thinking away from the constant stimulation of the computer and cell phone. Peggy Orenstein's description the Internet in her October 28, 2009 NY Times column The Way We Live Now ("Stop Your Search Engines") is apt. She wrote: "as alluring as we can find the perpetual pursuit of little thoughts, the net result may only be to prevent us from forming the big ones."
Even teenagers might take a brief walk with you and the dog on a beautiful afternoon. Perhaps you might even have a few minutes to enjoy the colors of the fall leaves together, or even have a conversation. You can probably persuade them to leave the cell phone at home for a short while. Just make sure that you leave yours behind too!

The year's biggest hits in one* killer mashup
Canada's Daniel Kim has just uploaded his annual mash-up of the year's biggest songs - dubbed Pop Danthology - in an audacious mix that sees Adele's Hello mingle with Fetty Wap's Trap Queen.
For the first time, this year's megamix comes in two instalments. Writing on his website, Kim explains it had become "increasingly challenging" to squeeze so many songs into a coherent four-minute mix. "I found myself cutting down so much of the original music just to jam in as many songs as I could. Not only was the work process not as enjoyable this way but the resulting sound was more choppy," he said.
Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez emerge as the year's pop victors, with three tracks apiece - while Madonna, Tove Lo and Jason Derulo also feature heavily.
So here you go: Two mixes, nine minutes, 82 songs. And if you're still not satisfied, DJ Earworm's State Of Pop 2015 is only days away.
The full list of songs featured in the mixes is available on this page.
* OK, two killer mashups

Are you wondering why your new #GalaxyNote5 struggles to load an app, or even freezes and crashes everytime you work an app? Our article today may give you the solutions you are looking for.
We've been receiving app-related queries from some members of our community lately so we are posting them here for you:
- How to sync Outlook and Exchange to Galaxy Note 5
- Music downloader app not working on Galaxy Note 5
- Modern Combat 5 app on Galaxy Note 5
- Galaxy Note 5 wallpaper keeps changing by itself
- Google Play Store app on Galaxy Note lags and freezes
- Email app on Galaxy Note 5 not syncing all folders
- Galaxy Note 5 lag issue
If you are looking for solutions to your own #Android issue, you can contact us by using the link provided at the bottom of this page.
Problem #1: How to sync Outlook and Exchange to Galaxy Note 5
I use Outlook Tasks and Notes to sync with MS Exchange in my office. I notice a few problems:
- Contacts don't seem to sync properly…it seems that changes on the phone don't go back to Exchange/Outlook? However, a contact that originates on the phone seems to work just fine? I have 2 folders of contacts…1 with personal and 1 with business contacts.
- The note field of the contact from Outlook seems to get truncated on the phone? Is this a limitation of the phone or app?
- I use Outlook tasks (sync thru Exchange). There is no resident app in Android for tasks. I seemed to have found a pretty robust app called Tasks & Notes 10.10.6 that will bring these to the Android phone. Seems to recognize the various folders as well.
- Considering the problem with contacts and also the difficulty that the build in app has with multiple folders for contacts, I wonder if the solution is using a different app for sync of all of the outlook functions: email, contacts, calendar, tasks, and notes? Something like the Tasks & Notes 10.10.6 that I had stumbled on. Is there something you could recommend or should I be really dealing with setting on the current built-in apps?
Many Thanks – Larry
Solution: Hi Larry. You have posted valid questions here but they (questions 1, 2, and 3) are best addressed by the developer of Task and Notes app itself. If you are paying for this productivity app, they will most likely entertain your questions and may even improve their product based on your feedback or recommendation.
Microsoft's Exchange and Outlook are products primarily designed to work on personal computers and only recently evolved to work with mobiles of different platforms (iOS, Android, Windows Phone, etc). Even then, Microsoft is yet to build one that will incorporate all Outlook functions into a single mobile application. The current Outlook app for Android is obviously deficient in this regard at this time.
So to answer your final question, yes , you are still required to download a number of apps to be able to replicate your PC Exchange/Outlook experience on your Android device.
The Outlook for Android app is a good one to start with if you want to port your Microsoft product experience to your S6. For other Outlook functions, we think Task and Notes is a pretty decent app to stick to as well.
Problem #2: Music downloader app not working on Galaxy Note 5
Any music downloader apps i download to my phone won't work. One of my favorites that i use on many Android phones that i have prior worked just fine. It gives me "no results" on all apps that i download. The reason i choose Android over iPhone are the free music download. Please help. — Kimmie
Solution: Hi Kimmie. The downloader app you've tried so far may not yet be fully compatible with the new Note 5. Try to contact the developer to let them know about the situation.
Problem #3: Modern Combat 5 app on Galaxy Note 5
My issue is I got the new Note 5 I saved all my games to Google Google+. Whatever it is now I only play 3 games: Unkilled, the new Need for Speed, & Modern Combat 5. All progress was saved in all but Modern Combat 5. It has something to do with Facebook. I get an error message saying it's not connected to Facebook.
Please someone help me. I've put a lot into that game & lots of $.
How do I get my progress back for Modern Combat 5 Blackout. You did everything else saved but MC5 please help thanks. — Brian
Solution: Hi Brian. The general rule of thumb when it comes to saving game progress, especially if you have already invested a lot of time, effort, and money, is never to keep it locally. This is to prevent losing everything in the event of sudden phone failure, or if you lose physical access to your phone. You have to make sure that the game is associated with an online account capable of saving the progress remotely (via cloud service). Most games, especially paid ones, offer this feature but we are not sure if it is available on Modern Combat 5.
Your question is app-specific so the best party that can help you is the developer of Modern Combat 5. You will find the contact details of the developer at the bottom of the page.
Problem #4: Galaxy Note 5 wallpaper keeps changing by itself
My wallpaper keeps changing by itself. I set it AGAIN, & it keeps replacing itself with backgrounds that I have been selecting, but I'm quite sure I have changed it back at least 8 times now! !! — Tara
Solution: Hi Tara. How do you change the wallpaper on your phone? Are you using a third party app to change it? If yes, try to re-install that app and observe the phone again.
This issue may also be caused by a faulty third party application. If you have a lot of apps, try to boot the phone in safe mode to determine if our hunch is correct. Safe mode, also known as diagnostic mode, prevents third party apps from running. Here's how to boot your Note 5 in safe mode:
- Turn off the phone completely.
- Press and hold the Power key.
- Once 'Samsung Galaxy Note5' shows, release the Power key and immediately press and hold the Volume Down button.
- The phone will restart but keep the Vol Down button pressed.
- Once the phone has finished restarting, 'Safe mode' will be display in the lower-left corner of the screen.
- You may now release the Volume Down button.
Let the phone run in safe mode for a couple of days. If the issue fails to occur, continue your troubleshooting by removing apps individually. Do it until the issue is gone.
Problem #5: Google Play Store app on Galaxy Note lags and freezes
Hi. I am having problem when I want to open my Play Store to download any new application. It showed blank screen and take very long time to show all the previous apps that I have downloaded before. It was very lagging. I can't even view all the apps that I downloaded before.
Before this problem, I just transferred my photos from my laptop to my Samsung Note 5. After that, i realised that Picasa album was installed into my Gallery. I did managed to remove the Picasa album from my Gallery after did some setting. — Janice
Solution: Hi Janice. Try to delete the data of Google Play Store app. These are the steps how to do it:
- Go to Settings.
- Proceed to Applications.
- Select Manage Applications.
- Tap the All tab.
- Look for Google Play Store app.
- From there, you will see the Clear Data button.
Problem #6: Email app on Galaxy Note 5 not syncing all folders
Hi. I just got my Galaxy Note 5 and i setup my email accounts with the stock mail app. I'm receiving notifications for new emails but i noticed that it's only for my Inbox. I have several folders and i have an email rule in my email provider to move certain emails from a specific sender to a folder that i choose. This is just to organize my emails. But the stock email app is not syncing or fetching those emails from my folders. I need to manually visit the folder in order for the mail app to sync the folder. And this is just time consuming for me to manually visit each folder just to check if there are new emails.
I already researched Google for a work around but i can't find any. I was using iPhone before and there is an option in iPhones Mail app to sync my folders and it works fine. But with the Galaxy Note 5 mail app, that option doesn't exists. I'm a switcher from iOS to Android but this lack of feature is not making me happy… I'm using iCloud as my email provider. I have properly set it up as IMAP. But the folder synching just doesn't work. Is there a way to do it with Android? Can you help me please so that i'l stay with Android? Thank you. — Dominic
Solution: Hi Dominic. Note 5's stock email app has been reported to not work properly, and it looks like Samsung is yet to patch it. Instead of using that app though, consider utilizing the many other free email apps from Google Play Store. You can start with these apps to see which of them works best for you:
- Email Type Mail
- Nine
- Aqua Mail
- Cloud Magic
- Blue Mail
Problem #7: Galaxy Note 5 lag issue
The device have powerful specs! Why there is still lag in Samsung devices. I am a Samsung fan since they release the Galaxy S2. Every year i say to myself this year they will master it but nothing changed.
My device lags when I open an email with attached pictures and sometimes I press the home key to wake the device and use my fingerprint to unlock. It takes maybe 10 sec to be responsive again. I did a format but still same issues.
Do Samsung know about it? Is there any solutions?
Please note that I know how to use Android system to the max and disable unneeded apps and always close my open apps.
I think this is my last device from Samsung. — Bino
Solution: You can either troubleshoot your phone to narrow down the possible causes, or request for a replacement unit. Slow performance issues on an Android phone can be due to a number of factors but they can be broken down to either software or hardware. We recommend that you do the basic software troubleshooting first.
If you are 100% positive that there are no firmware- or app-related reasons for the lag, get a replacement.
Alternatively, you can contact Samsung directly and let them know about the specific problem you are having.

Owens Corning Honors JLL with 'Supplier Recognition Award'
By: George Elliott, Managing Director, JLL
Toledo, Ohio-based Owens Corning has manufacturing, distribution, office and R&D facilities in 28 countries across the globe. Every year, Owens Corning recognizes its leading suppliers with awards in various categories, from safety, sustainability, innovation, value creation, risk mitigation, among others.
This year, Owens Corning recognized JLL with one of its highest honors — the Supplier Recognition Award. JLL's team stood apart from more than 6,000 other suppliers who competed for the award through value creation and cost savings.
But, let's rewind to where it all started.
Manufacturer Meets Real Estate Expert
JLL's relationship with Owens Corning dates back to 1998, when it was initiated by The Staubach Company. It became official in 2001 when Staubach formalized its relationship with Owens Corning in an exclusive outsource agreement.
Since then—and following it's merger with Staubach—JLL has helped the global manufacturer with asset and lease management, incentives consulting, strategic planning, and property disposition and acquisition.
Here at JLL, we are proud to work so closely with a best-in-class organization like Owens Corning, and even more honored to be recognized with its most prestigious award.

For the 2014 Paris Motor Show, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars unveiled its latest Bespoke offering, the Phantom Metropolitan Collection. Inspired by the modern metropolis, the new vehicle arrives with a special interior that includes small pieces of wood veneer that forms decorative motifs.
According to the British manufacturer, the design was created through the expert application of 500 individual wood veneer pieces and the unique objects took several days to be completed.
The cityscape theme extends beyond the wood surfaces as the special vehicle features Aetherius Grey leather with rear seats fitted with 6,800 two-tone stitches to the central flutes that resembles an abstract image of a skyscraper.
In addition, the interior gets a specially developed Bespoke clock featuring a rotating bezel that expresses 24 of the great cities of the world and their time zones. Darkest Tungsten is the exterior colour inspired by the city skylines but if you don't like it, Rolls-Royce offers a choice of up to 44,000 colours for those who will buy the Phantom Metropolitan Collection.
If you liked this vehicle and want to buy one, you should call your dealer in this moment as Rolls-Royce will only offer 20 units of the special edition.
Elegant marquetry in the Rolls-Royce Phantom Metropolitan Collection is further refined by choosing only perfect individual wood veneers. To ensure only the best materials are included, the carmaker will immediately reject veneers with even the smallest flaws like flecks and knots.
The colors of each wood veneers are adjusted by using the traditional hand-process of hot-sand shading. Then each veneer would undergo a final inspection under magnification on a light box to make that they are perfect to be used on the Phantom Metropolitan Collection.
The metropolitan theme of the vehicle is not just visible on the Phantom's wood surfaces. Rolls-Royce developed an Aetherius Grey leather color to emulate the palette of the modern city. On the other hand, the central rear seat flutes feature 6,800 two-tone stitches that convey an abstract image of a skyscraper.
Rolls-Royce Phantom Metropolitan Collection is fitted with a Bespoke clock and a rotating bezel on its central console corresponding to 24 of the great cities in the world as well as their time zones.
Moreover, Phantom Metropolitan Collection is one of the limited collections that Rolls-Royce launched this year, including the Phantom Drophead Coupé Waterspeed Collection and the Pinnacle Travel Phantom.
These limited edition models reflect Rolls-Royce's renowned image as one of the prominent makes of bespoke cars. In fact, record levels of Bespoke demand were reported in September 2014. Additionally, almost every Phantom across the globe, 90 percent of Wraith and 80 percent of Ghost models were ordered with some aspects of Bespoke design.
Torsten Müller-Ötvös, chief executive of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, remarked that Paris is the ideal place to unveil the Phantom Metropolitan Collection since the city echoes the carmaker's brand promise in combining the timeless and the modern.
He noted that the Phantom Metropolitan Collection showcases the extraordinary scope for Bespoke personalization that Rolls-Royce offers to its customer.
