GENERATION RENT campaigns for professionally managed, secure, decent and affordable private rented homes in sustainable communities.
Join us today and help campaign for a better deal for private renters.
Today we've joined up with renters and housing justice campaigners from across England to launch a national renter manifesto in time for the 2019 General Election.
Written by Generation Rent, London Renters Union, ACORN, New Economics Foundation, Renters' Rights London and Tenants Union UK, the manifesto calls for radical reform of private renting and a transformation of the housing system - including the abolition of section 21 evictions, the introduction of rent controls and an end to discrimination of tenants on housing benefit.Read more
We polled 2,000 people on their experience of moving home.Read more
Right now, the private rented sector is a wild west which at best costs a fortune for somewhere you can't call a home and at its worst is dangerously unsafe. In fact, it's so unregulated that right now the government doesn't actually know how many landlords are out there.Read more
There was no mention of private renting in the Queen's Speech today, but it would be a mistake for Boris Johnson's government to overlook it.Read more
There are just a few days left to have your say about the government's plans to scrap Section 21, the law that allows landlords to evict tenants without needing a reason.
The Ministry of Housing's consultation on abolishing Section 21 closes on Saturday and today, alongside other members of the End Unfair Evictions coalition, we went down to Westminster to call on the government to give tenants the protections needed to enjoy a stable home.

Transport for London has banned adverts for holiday let companies that take homes away from Londoners, following a successful campaign against the anti-tenant adverts by Generation Rent.

One of the great things about the Tenant Fees Act is that you can save money whether you move home or stay put.
Since June, tenants signing an agreement on a new home in England do not have to pay letting agent fees. (As of yesterday, the ban applies across the UK.)
But there's been less fanfare for the cap on deposits at five weeks' rent, which means that a tenant renewing the agreement on their current home could get a refund if their deposit is worth more than that.Read more
Deposits are behind some of the most common problems we hear about from renters:
The good news is the government is looking at how the deposits system can be improved and is asking for renters' experiences until 5 September. This is your chance to share your experience of deposits and help change the system.Read more
There are now three live government consultations that could help to reshape the private rental market.
One is on reforming tenancy deposits (deadline for responses 2 September), the second is on abolishing Section 21 evictions (deadline 12 October) and the third, announced last Sunday as well, proposes giving tenants access to a government database of criminal landlords.Read more
It's finally here! After announcing in April its intention to abolish Section 21, the government has published its proposals for making this happen.
We've been through the consultation document, which is open for responses until 12 October, and here's a quickish summary of what's in it.
We'll be preparing our own response, but we also want to hear what you think. And most importantly, we're looking at how to make it easy for renters to respond and make sure the government does this right.Read more

Wenner to Obama: Why does Ken Salazar still have a job?
Rolling Stone editor Jann Wenner posted a Q&A with President Barack Obama today, and the wide-ranging interview on the Democrat's first two years in the White House includes the following exchange that's of interest to those of us in the Mile High (Politics) Club:
Wenner: Why does Interior Secretary Ken Salazar still have his job? The corruption at Minerals Management Service was widely known at the time he came into office, as was reported several times in Rolling Stone and other places, and that's what helped the Gulf disaster to happen.
Obama: When Ken Salazar came in, he said to me, "One of my top priorities is cleaning up MMS." It was no secret. You had seen the kind of behavior in that office that was just over-the-top, and Ken did reform the agency to eliminate those core ethical lapses — the drugs, the other malfeasance that was reported there. What Ken would admit, and I would admit, and what we both have to take responsibility for, is that we did not fully change the institutional conflicts that were inherent in that office. If you ask why did we not get that done, the very simple answer is that this is a big government with a lot of people, and changing bureaucracies and agencies is a time-consuming process. We just didn't get to it fast enough.
You'll remember that earlier this year, Rolling Stone was especially critical of the administration (read: Salazar and the lack of change at MMS) in reviewing what went wrong both before and after the spill in the Gulf of Mexico:
Salazar did little to tamp down on the lawlessness at MMS, beyond referring a few employees for criminal prosecution and ending a Bush-era program that allowed oil companies to make their "royalty" payments — the amount they owe taxpayers for extracting a scarce public resource — not in cash but in crude. And instead of putting the brakes on new offshore drilling, Salazar immediately throttled it up to record levels. Even though he had scrapped the Bush plan, Salazar put 53 million offshore acres up for lease in the Gulf in his first year alone — an all-time high. The aggressive leasing came as no surprise, given Salazar's track record … As a senator, Salazar not only steered passage of the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act, which opened 8 million acres in the Gulf to drilling, he even criticized President Bush for not forcing oil companies to develop existing leases faster."
Denver Post Washington correspondent Michael Riley wrote this morning about how MMS was renaming its Minerals Revenue Management office in Lakewood on Friday, the steps taken to reform it and how the administration hoped the change could close the door on the office's scandal-plagued history. But it may be that reform hasn't come soon enough.
Politico.com took note of the Wenner/Obama exchange, and offered unsourced speculation that the former Colorado Sen. could be a post-midterm White House casualty.
White House insiders say Salazar has fallen out of favor and speculate that he will be gone after November's midterms.
Of course, this isn't the first time Obama has criticized Salazar or the slow pace of change at MMS, as Denver Post reporter David Olinger noted in June.
Stay tuned.

text: Consider System Matching in Your Next Air Conditioner Replacement Posted April 13, 2015 To keep your home sweat-free in the summer, your best friend is your air conditioner. When it's time for an air conditioner replacement, get ahold of the experienced pros at Scott Temperature to make sure your system is designed well, and correctly matched size-wise with equipment that is engineered to work together properly. System matching is notably important if you are only replacing one piece of a system so you can make sure any new component works hand-in-hand with the rest. While air conditioner replacement isn't always seen as fun, it can ensure you take your home comfort to the next level. A Match Made in HVAC Heaven Scott Temperature offers Lennox® air conditioners and heat pumps that are designed to work together with a properly matched indoor unit. A properly matched system will help you with efficiency when paired with an indoor furnace/evaporator coil or air handler. This means you'll get the highest level of comfort. It's imperative to be sure your dealer considers size with system matching. Any HVAC system can only operate at its best when it is sized properly to meet the specific needs of your home. Considering Size You may be under the impression that when it comes to the size of your air conditioner replacement, you only need to consider whether it's too small to cool your entire home. The truth is, an air conditioner that is too large for your home cycles on and off frequently. This continuous cycling makes it nearly impossible to dehumidify the air, leaving your home overly humid. Undersized air conditioner replacements have the opposite problem. They have to run continuously trying to cool your home and may not be able to accomplish the task on hotter summer days. You could end up paying more money for your monthly power bills, and your system will likely not last as long as an appropriately sized one. So, how can you find the perfectly sized system for your home? It's simple. Leave it to the experts at Scott Temperature in Lawrence. We'll visit your home to perform a load calculation that takes into account the square footage of your house, how well your windows are insulated, the amount of insulation in your walls and roof as well as several other factors. When you realize it's time for an air conditioner replacement, be sure to prioritize system matching so you can find the best match for your home.

Pike Fishing
- $5.99
- $5.99
Publisher Description
This book is an updated version of Pike, which first appeared in print in 1990, as part of Beekay's Successful Angling series. More than two decades later, it has been completely revised and updated by the author to reflect the new challenges of pike fishing in the second decade of the 21st century. Appropriately, this edition is published in ebook format to appeal to a new generation of pike anglers. But, most importantly, it is packed with information to help you catch more (and bigger) pike. David Phillips caught his first pike in 1967; his first double followed in 1968 and his first 20-pounder in 1971, when he was aged just 15. Since then he has fished for pike in all corners of the British Isles – including the mighty loughs of Ireland, where he once landed five consecutive pike averaging over 20 lb (and all on artificial lures). The pike, which is known as the northern pike in the USA and Canada, is found throughout the northern hemisphere. If you love catching pike – or want to learn how to catch them – this is the book you can't afford to miss.

A great tip for marketing your events
I thought I'd take a moment to share with you a great marketing tip for your next multi-speaker event.
If any of your speakers are flying in the night before the event, why not host a special VIP cocktail party at the hotel and invite your key customers to have a 'meet & greet' with your speaker? Or if you are not holding the event for your customer, you can create a paid VIP party. Many people like to meet the speakers personally and this is a great way to add value to your event.
Now not any professional speaker would be happy to show up and mix and mingle with your favorite customers, but it's one of those little extras that I like to do for my promoters. It really adds that extra special something that will keep them talking about your event long after its said and done.

How We Operate Criteria Fees Join Us
NSW Lones Scout Group was formed in 1915 in order to service the needs of youth where isolation, transportation, disabilities, parental work commitments and other factors prevented them from participating in normal Scout Group activities on a regular basis. As such, the NSW Lone Scout Group (often referred to as Lones) is a NSW Branch or State Resource. We exist to service the needs of youth across all the Scout Regions of NSW.
As a State Resource, it is common for us to pick up youth members whose families have moved to an area where a scout group does not exist allowing them to continue their scouting experiences. This is very common in the country areas of NSW and with the many servicemen, servicewomen and their families both within Australia and serving overseas. When they move back to an area where a scout group is active these Lones Members are encouraged to transfer to that Group. Thus, they get to experience both the self motivated and the Group promoted experiences.
The Scout Regions can call upon Lones to service the youth of a Group that is going through a transition period, or where there is a lack of Leaders for a particular section or waiting for Leaders to complete their training. A bit like being in a holding pattern where the youth can return to the Group as soon as the Group is ready. There is a set of strict criteria that each applicant must meet in order to join the NSW Lones Scout Group. Of course, it is expected that the youth member would join or re-join the regular Scout Group should their circumstances change.
At NSW Lones we recognise that one of the main reasons that we exist is because the conventional Scout Group does not suit everyone's situation. The criteria covers most of the reasons why youth may wish to join NSW Lones in order to continue or start their scouting experience. But how do we differ from a regular scout group?
In a conventional scout group situation, the scout Leader is relied upon for programming and assisting the youth members achieve their goals and milestones. In Lones, it is the Parents and Guardians who do most of the direct assistance with the Leaders offering support and guidance. We also rely upon the many other resources that often go unnoticed, such as school teachers, sports coaches, music tutors and the like. A regular scout group would meet once a week during school terms, at Lones, we do not have that privilege, and therefore we need to rely upon those around our youth members, such as parents, to provide the support and encouragement needed to allow our members to grow and achieve their goals.
As Leaders, we do our best working with the youth members in identifying their needs, goals and aspirations, then, with the local support mentioned above, a plan is put into place creating a pathway for all to follow. Our leaders have many years experience in programming, advising, planning and assisting our members. In the past we have relied heavily upon the phone and snail mail to communicate to our members. With the bandwidth opening up on the Internet, we are finding that this has rapidly become an major and essential tool in delivering our services and support.

Earlier this month, eBossWatch reported about the sexual harassment lawsuit filed by a female employee against UK-based Nomus Capital and its owner, Mark Lowe. Among the allegations made by the employee, Jordan Wimmer, is that Lowe brought prostitutes to business meetings.
One of the witnesses in the sexual harassment hearing, Ariane Gordji, testified about an email exchange that she had with Lowe where he sent her a vile message in Latin.
Gordji, an intern in her 20s at Nomus Capital who new about Lowe's knowledge of an interest in the Latin language, sent him a Biblical quote in Latin which means "love your enemy."
Lowe responded to Gordji's email with a quote from the first century Roman poet, Catullus: "Irrumabo vos, et pedicabo vos." Not knowing the meaning of this statement, Gordji testified that she ran a search on Google and was "shocked and confused" when she discovered that the quote that Lowe sent her means, "I will sodomize you and face-f**k you."

The office of Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has confirmed his resignation from his post after the country's Supreme Court disqualified him over corruption charges.
Sharif resigned immediately after the Court said he was not fit to hold office and ordered a criminal investigation into him and his family saying, they could not account for their vast wealth.
A spokesman for Pakistan Prime Minister has told that he stepped down to show his respect for the judiciary and rule of law despite of having reservations about the court order.
The verdict against Sharif comes after the Panama Papers leak in April 2016 revealed that three of Sharif's children owned offshore companies and assets not shown on his family's wealth statement.

Some sad news from Burnsville Minnesota a Red Lions liquor store is recovering from a heartbreaking loss.
"Surveillance cameras captured the slow-starting fire, which began with smoke billowing from a display of vodka bottles. Soon, a small paper sign on top simply melts away.
Eventually, the heat got so intense that the tops popped off of the vodka bottles, spraying streams of steaming liquor. In the end, the display caught fire, sending some flames shooting up to 12 feet in the air.
Even the Burnsville fire marshal had never seen anything like it.
"It was entertaining," Hautman recalled. "The firefighters were standing next to me like they were watching a new video game. They were going, 'This is so cool!'"

How to Open and Adjust the Laptop Screen
Believe it or not, the laptop must be in an open position for you to use it. Here's the catch: The lid has a catch, or possibly two! The catch is either a button that you push in or a little slider that you push sideways to release the lid. After you release the catch (or catches), the laptop's lid pops up slightly. You can then raise it up to an angle best suited for viewing; use the figure as your guide.
If your laptop has one catch that you must release to open the lid, the catch is probably in the middle. If your laptop has two catch release buttons, they're on the front corners of the laptop's lid. The catches are on either the front or sides. The below figure offers some hints.Possible locations for the lid latch(es).
The front side of the laptop is the side without all the connectors (although, in the future, laptops may have connectors on the front).
It's possible to configure the laptop to be on without opening the lid — for example, when you're using a docking station or an external monitor.
Some laptops allow you to play a music CD when the lid is closed, even sporting special buttons to control the CD player.
Be aware that your laptop's cooling system is designed based on the assumption that the lid will be open. Many laptop users who keep their systems on while closed have cooked their displays. Beware!

The case against ID cards
The ID card scheme signalled a shift in the relationship between the individual and the state – where information is not just shared when necessary, but shared unless there is a reason not to.
There are plenty of other arguments against ID Cards. They are:
- Crime - There is no evidence that crime levels in countries that already have ID Cards (such as France, Germany, Italy and Spain) have been reduced by having ID cards;
- Terrorism - Terrorists, especially suicide bombers, generally want to hide their intent not their identity. The 2005 Madrid train bombers carried ID cards which did not prevent them from committing their horrifying act. Even former Home Secretary Charles Clarke admitted that ID cards would not have stopped the London bombings in 2005;
- Identity fraud - This rarely happens face-to-face but instead most often occurs online, which ID cards wouldn't affect. In any case it is highly likely that false ID cards would be created by those intent on committing face-to-face identity fraud and, with so much information stored in one plac,e the National Identity Register (NIR) would be vulnerable to those intent on doing us harm;
- Benefit fraud - The Government's own statistics show that 95 per cent of benefit fraud is due to lying about circumstances, not about identity;
- Illegal immigration - Asylum seekers already have to carry identifying documents.
While the legislative scheme created in the 2006 Act did not compel people to carry ID cards, there was nothing to stop this becoming a further innovation down the line. It is likely then that ID cards would have heightened the inequalities that have been seen with ethnically biased stop and search practices. Those from minority ethnic groups would be more likely to be stopped and asked to produce an ID card, further damaging race relations.
ID cards could eventually have become an internal passport, carried by anyone who might face questions about their immigration status.
The Government estimated in November 2008 that the ID Cards scheme would cost £5billion, excluding external costs. This money would be far better spent ensuring agencies such as the police are properly resourced.
ID cards were priced at £30 or more, and it was proposed that carriers would have to pay again to replace lost cards, when moving house or changing their name. Fines of £1,000 could have been charged to people who did not notify the authorities of changes in personal data.
Intrusive and unsafe
Large amounts of information (including former addresses and immigration status) would have been held about individuals on the NIR, with the likelihood of more being held in the future.
This information would have been shared with many agencies within the government and also sub-contractors with scope for extension into the private sector.
The government's record of losing sensitive information raised doubts about its ability to manage this much new information securely. In 2007, for example, Her Majesty's Revenues & Customs mislaid millions of people's personal financial details.

What Clients Say
Our Patients & Their Humans Are The Real Experts.
Listen To Our Clients
CANINE REHAB OF NEW YORK is proud to be part of our patients' recovery.
When I brought my mini-dachshund, Charlie, in for treatment, I had been warned that she might never walk again. The doctors and staff at Canine Rehab welcomed us and had us in front of Dr. Brown quickly. Dr. Brown and her staff are kind and thorough. Charlie and her sister, Stella, look forward to their visits. Charlie immediately began working with the techs in Canine Rehab. Soon thereafter, she was dubbed The Miracle Dog, because her recovery was just that: miraculous. Today, she is a bit wobbly, but she is walking and running again, something that I ascribe to the wonderful care and treatment that she received at Canine Rehab.
-Temple Richardson
In January 2016, Lulu had major surgery for a torn ACL. Four months later, she had recovered the normal skip and bounce of a springer. But by mid-summer her gait went wonky and a persistent limp developed. Back into surgery, with a supposed 2-week recovery. Wrong. My pup refused to put weight on her hind leg, and went from having perfect confirmation to a 3-legged compromise.
After much hand-wringing and back and forth with our vet, physical therapy seemed the solution. I was dubious: physical therapy for a dog? Wasn't that akin to being a helicopter parent? Wrong again. Only this time I, dedicated owner, was wrong. Still, I insisted on a consult with Dr. Bonnie Brown, of Gotham Vet Center; within minutes my concern melted away, replaced with a Buddha-like calm and belief. All will be well, I told myself.
From Day One until our last session, weeks later, Lulu was happy and in love at Canine Rehab. And she thrived, magnificently, pretty much before my eyes. Happiness was doing underwater treadmill, where she could paw the water and splash about. And love came in the form of Carly Arbitman, Jennifer Franchetti, and Lisa Ferguson, who gave her support and constant care. Each time we went to Canine Rehab, Lulu pulled me the last block of our walk, tail wagging, just to see the young women who treated her with skill, tough love, and more than a few treats. "Isn't she just the best?" I'd always say. And to their credit, the women agreed with me. How could they not? They had taken a lame dog—one who had decided to give up on a leg and thus had lost significant muscle mass—and made her confident and strong. They made a star. And I got back my pup.
-Ruth Peltason
George is back!! George had ACL surgery on his left hind leg in September of 2014. After a successful surgery, George immediately began his rehabilitation at Canine Rehab of New York. George eagerly went to his therapy sessions two times a week, almost dragging us to get there. It was quite an amusing thing to watch. After less than 3 months George was running, jumping, playing like there was never a problem at all. We would have never believed this since going into the surgery he could not even put his leg down to touch the ground.
He recovered so well that 1-year later George was back in the same situation with his right hind leg. (This is known to happen; often when one knee goes the other almost immediately follows.) Again following another successful surgery he began his rehab. It is now 2 months past surgery and he is officially done with his weekly therapy sessions. His recovery is complete and the only thing we worry about is his being a bit sad. George truly misses his time at Canine Rehab of New York City. When my husband gets ready to leave for work in the morning, George whines and waits for him to put on the leash and take him to therapy.
Canine Rehab of New York City is incredible. What they have done with George to get him back to his old ways is amazing. Their expertise, kindness, compassion, and delicious treats have brought George back to his old running and playing ways. We cannot thank them all enough."
-The Cohen Family
I have a small dog who had surgery for a torn ACL. The operation was a success, but immediately afterwards she started three-legged walking. I have been taking her to Canine Rehab of NY for therapy, and am very happy with treatment she gets from Dr. Brown and all the staff. They could not be more loving, patient, and concerned with each dog's experience every time the dog is treated. It is all on a one to one relationship, and they really care that the animals get well. Praise, snacks, hugs are all part of the treatment. The facility is pristine without being antiseptic, and the therapists are always one step ahead of the dogs. I don't think my dog would have been rehabilitated without their expertise. Highly, highly recommended!
-Penny Mandel
I am deeply grateful to the staff at Canine Rehab of NY. One of my dogs, Gracie, a 3-year old rescue mix, started to limp after a run and became progressively lame. She was in pain and unable to do any of her normal activities. I was told by a canine orthopedist at another facility that she would likely need extensive shoulder surgery with a long recovery and uncertain success.
I was so fortunate to find Dr. Brown, Carly, and Jennifer at Canine Rehab. Gracie was efficiently and decisively evaluated and started on a graded rehab program. Laser therapy provided profound improvement immediately, and the dry land exercises and underwater treadmill work strengthened her shoulder over a period of weeks. Gracie loved the sessions- even though she is not a big fan of water, the staff climbed into the treadmill tank with her to ensure she felt safe and supported.
The staff is amazing- diligent, professional, knowledgeable, and energetic. I observed the staff working with dogs of all ages, sizes and limitations- the rehab is entirely individualized. Gracie made a full recovery and is back to running with no limitations, and the staff were as happy about her recovery as I was!

Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Pollak
When you scrape through the bottom of the comedy barrel and root around underneath it, this tedious morsel of drivel—a supremely misguided blend of Irreconcilable Differences and The Ref—is what you will find.
Poor Curtis and Pollak are a Defiance, Ohio, couple on the verge of divorce. Their children, a teenager (Kyle Howard) and his little sister (Amy Sakasitz), lock the adults in the cellar to force them into proximity and, the kids hope, rapprochement. Then some of the kids' pals bring their folks into the cellar, for the same reason. This creates a chaotic morass that's more foolish and confusing than it is funny.
The best laugh comes when an un-credited Shelley Hack (of Charlie's Angels fame) appears on a TV set as a solemn self-help author hyping her book Face the Fear. Other than that, what mostly happens is that the reputations of some' reputable actors head for the tubes. (PG)

Demarcus Milliner - Absolute stud and the prized recruit of the 2010 class. Milliner is a 6-2 180 freak from Millbrook, AL. The only 5 Star in our class, who runs in the sub 4.5's and as the opportunity to play as a true freshman. With only 1 returning DB to the 2010 Tide, Milliner could fight for some playing time along side last years gem DB Dre Kirkpatrick.
Phillip Sims - Considered the number one QB in the 2010 class, Phillip comes from Chesapeake, VA where he won a State Championship as a junior at Oscar Smith, where he also became Virginia's all time leading passer. He has some kinks to work out before becoming successful at the next level, but with McElroy coming back for his senior year and A.J. riding shotgun he should have plenty of time to develop
Arie Kouandjio - A 6-6 314 lb Offensive tackle was a late signing to the 2010 class but will prove to be an anchor for our offensive line for the next few years. Arie is one of the strongest recruits in the 2010 class and is currently though of as a RT. With his rare combination of size, strength, and speed Arie is versatile enough to play Guard or Tackle at the college ranks. Coach Sunseri had to get Arie out of the rarely recruited state of Maryland, but he hit a home run with Arie who is probably our best recruit on the offensive line.
Deion Belue - This 6" 175lb 3 star ATH played both sides of the ball for Deshler in Tuscumbia, AL. While being recruited Coach Saban told him he sees his future along side many future stars in what will be a nasty secondary. While probably needing a year or two to prepare for SEC WR's, Belue has a great opportunity to succeed as a punt returned, a spot left vacant by all world return man Javi Arenas. Last season Deion had a run of 7 straight games in which he returned a punt for a touchdown.
Alfy Hill - Another one of our prized recruits in the 2010 class, he was recruit out of the state of North Carolina. This 6-4 222 lb defensive end is considered one if not the fastest at his position. Alfy will most likely be red shirted this year so he can gain 20-30 pounds and become and absolute terror coming off the end. With his long arms and incredible speed for a big man, Alfy has all the tools to be a superstar in the SEC.

making our living and communication easier. But unfortunately, it is often accompanied by a whole new array of stress!
Be it the physical strain of spending hours operating the machines or sitting in front of the computer, or the over ambitions of wanting too much too soon that often leave us exhausted mentally and emotionally - the current century is facing it all! Here, meditation is the best solution, being an oasis of peace.
Meditation is a very practical and flexible inner technology that resolves our inner issues, making our lives stress-free, richer and more fulfilled, in this modern age. It can be practiced by everyone and benefits everyone - whether you are an athlete, artist, teacher, writer, scientist, teenager, senior or a simple housewife, whether you are looking for a deeper meaning in life or simply a stress-free life, no matter what your lifestyle, profession, eating habits or wardrobe is - you can practice it in your blues jeans, T-shirts, Nike shoes, bathrobe or business suit.
Vishvas Meditation is a very simple process of watching your mind, your thoughts as an observer. This process dissolves all unnecessary thoughts and brings you into the 'now', releasing all stress, worries, complexes, grudges and unnecessary criticisms of the self and others, hence enhancing your bliss, balance, love and determination. You begin to move through the ups and downs of life more courageously and peacefully. Life is either 'now' and 'here' or else its nowhere.
Swami Vishvas Ji explains, "Materialism alone is unfulfilling, unless combined with the inner quest that provides the real answers. The world may not give us everything we want. People, philosophies, societies may disappoint us. But the love and peace we are looking for is right within us. Remember, love which is merely an emotion or a state of mind is dependant on external circumstances. As the external events alter, so does your happiness. But love that comes from the inner realms is eternal, provides unshakeable peace, the outer world not having much of an influence there. "
"True love is the other name of Meditation that enables us to love ourselves better, forgive and forget more easily and serve our fellow human beings, our Mother Land and co-exist in harmony with the international community."
Hence, meditation is indispensable in modern times for good health and mental peace.

Drew Brees' day as the NFC's starting quarterback ended early when he dislocated his left elbow and left the Pro Bowl late in the first quarter.
"He had X-rays here (at Aloha Stadium), and it was determined he had a clean dislocation," said Brian McCarthy, an NFL spokesman. "His wife came down to see him in the locker room and they left to go back to the Ihilani (hotel).
"He's more upset that he won't be able to play golf than he is about the injury."
Brees, who led the New Orleans Saints to the NFC championship game against Chicago, went 2-for-7 for 23 yards before the injury, which happened on a hit by Baltimore's Terrell Suggs while throwing an incomplete pass.
Defensive tackle Kris Jenkins of the Carolina Panthers was convinced Brees wasn't hurt too badly.
"I saw him at halftime and he (Brees) told me he was fine," said Jenkins, who finished with two tackles, but took up a lot of space and created havoc in the middle with his 6-foot-4, 335-pound frame.
"We did our best to get back into the game, but we let it slip through our grasp. And I don't think that call was P.I. (pass interference on Arizona's Adrian Wilson, leading to the AFC's game-winning field goal)."
On the video replay, it appeared Wilson bumped receiver Chad Johnson of the Bengals before the ball got there.
Unhappy campers: Even though the game was an exhibition, the mood in the losing NFC locker room was dark and in stark contrast to the winners in the AFC locker room, where the bright TV lights and the smiles of the players were flashing.
NFC coach Sean Payton of the Saints was so ticked off he didn't talk to reporters after the game and stalked out of the locker room. He was apparently upset about the officiating, but didn't want to subject himself to the $15,000 fine that could go with any complaining.
Some other NFC players, who asked not to be identified, were also upset, especially about the fumble by St. Louis' Marc Bulger and ensuing recovery and 70-yard TD runback by Baltimore's Adalius Thomas that gave the AFC a 14-7 lead.
"Somebody blew that whistle and most players took two steps, heard the whistle and stopped," said one player.
The players, when they heard the whistle, assumed it was an incomplete pass.
"I felt we got snubbed on a couple of calls," said another player.
Bulger, who brought his arm up to pass on the play but didn't move it forward, said, "The ball fell out and I think it was a fumble. But they blew the whistle and the worst it should have been was their (possession of the) ball."
Em-Boldin-ed: Arizona's Anquan Boldin (five catches, 86 yards) was ecstatic about his TD reception, despite the loss.
"As a kid, you watch the Pro Bowl and you want to play in it some day. You finally get to play in it and you get in the end zone. I feel blessed."
In contrast, Carolina's Steve Smith (four catches, 62 yards) was ho-hum about his day.
"We lost, they won," he said. "There were good calls, there were bad calls. I'm just here to play football."
Hester, the Pester: Chicago's Devin Hester worked his return magic again yesterday, but not for a touchdown like he did six times during the regular season and once in the Super Bowl.
With the NFC trailing 28-14, Hester's 63-yard return, in which he started right and went way left before reversing back to his right, had the sellout crowd going nuts in the fourth quarter.
"I was just trying to pick up our momentum," he said. "We were lacking momentum at that point. I wanted to give a spark and show that we were still capable of winning. It took time to set up the blocks and find my surroundings.
"(The loss) is OK. We'll be back next year and we'll be able to win it."
Reed picks off two: Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed tied a Pro Bowl record with two interceptions, both of them coming inside the AFC's 2-yard line.
On the opening drive of the game, the NFC tried a little trickery as running back Tiki Barber took a pitch from Brees and tried to throw a pass to Green Bay wide receiver Donald Driver that was picked off by Reed. After escaping Driver's grasp, Reed returned the ball 26 yards before recovering his own fumble.
"It was a simple plan on defense to just keep everything in front, so I wasn't going to get fooled," Reed said.
Reed tied the record by intercepting a Tony Romo pass midway through the quarter, which almost won the three-time Pro Bowler his first MVP award.
"I got a couple votes you know, but this is a game for the offense," Reed said. "Carson (Palmer) made those two great throws and we needed the points."
The last good-bye: The realization hit everyone at the 2-minute warning, when a video ode to Barber's career was played up on the Aloha Stadium big screen: This year's Pro Bowl really was Tiki Barber's last game. The crowd responded with warm applause with each new highlight from Barber's 10-year New York Giants career. He was on the field, awaiting the next play, during the timeout, and the crowd's response grew until it became a standing ovation from nearly 50,000 fans.
After the game Barber jogged off the field for the last time, surrounded by cameras and reporters and well-wishers. It was over, his last football game. After six 1,000-yard seasons, more than 15,000 total yards, three Pro Bowl selections, one Super Bowl run, this was it.
"I was glad I got to be teammates with my brother," he said. He and his twin, Ronde, were in the Pro Bowl together again. It was the perfect ending, even with yesterday's loss.
He ran off the football field for the last time. He would talk about travel, and not getting beat up for a living, and, really, growing up for the first time.
"It's easy to play a kid's game," he said yesterday, after leaving football behind. "It'll be nice to live life."

Yoco, Xero integrate
Cape Town-based payments company Yoco has integrated with Xero, New Zealand-based cloud accounting software for SMEs.
Yoco's point-of-sale (POS) app and card readers enable SMEs in SA to accept card payments at the store or on the go with no monthly fees. For Yoco merchants that use Xero as their accounting software, this integration means their cash and card sales, VAT, bank account settlements and processing fees will be seamlessly updated into their Xero account.
The companies say this is a major step towards automated booking and makes it easier for merchants to do business.
"Our integration with Xero is an extension of Yoco's mission to empower the growth of small businesses by allowing our merchants to spend less time administering their business and more time growing and engaging their customers. We want to make running a business as easy as swiping a card," according to Carl Wazen, Yoco co-founder and chief business officer.
The integration is being beta tested with a handful of small businesses and will be live on the Xero Add-ons marketplace next month.
This marks Yoco's second integration with a global tech company and will be the first POS payments add-on for Xero on the African continent.
"We welcome when other tech companies, like Yoco, integrate with our platform and enhance the user experience," comments Gary Turner, Xero co-founder and MD for Europe, Middle East and Africa.
"Nowadays, accounting platforms are no longer an in-house facility running on a mainframe somewhere. Xero represents a new breed of business support technology based in the cloud, specifically suited for SMEs," adds Nick Jacobs, senior software engineer at Yoco.
"This fits in perfectly with Yoco's fully cloud-based architecture, making this integration possible by leveraging open standards like OAuth and HTTP-based Web services. Xero's existing Web services interface made integration of the Yoco back-end a straightforward development exercise," he says.
Yoco launched in October 2015 and is headquartered in Cape Town but operates nationwide. It has 1 500 merchants using the system, is growing by over 200 merchants per month and employs 25 people.

Published at Sunday, April 28th, 2019 - 19:29:53 PM. Worksheet. By Adorlee Martinez.
In many preschools, child care centers, and kindergartens, young children spend their time on worksheet paper and pencil tasks. Teachers who use worksheets believe they are demonstrating children's learning progress to parents. Unfortunately for Jamaica and the other children in her class, worksheet activities are not developmentally appropriate and can cause many problems. Worksheets typically have a "right answer." Jamaica is expected to circle the rhyming words or match the pictures of things that start with the letter "G." She may learn quickly that putting down a wrong answer is emotionally costly. Worksheet activities may make her feel ignorant and incompetent, so that she learns to stop taking risks by guessing.
Problem solving involves an element of risk. If we want children to learn to solve problems we must create safe environments in which they feel confident taking risks, making mistakes, learning from them, and trying again (Fordham & Anderson, 1992). In a play-based curriculum, each day provides opportunities to learn about reading, writing, and math through real, meaningful situations. For instance, children set the table for snack so each child has one napkin, one straw, and one box of milk. Children string beads to match the pattern on a card or wait their turn because there is room for only four children at the art table. Through these meaningful experiences children begin to understand number, quantity, size, and other mathematical concepts. Early childhood education experts agree that the years from birth to age eight are a critical learning time for children (Bee, 1992; Kostelnik, Soderman, & Whiren, 1993; Willis, 1995). During these years, children have many cognitive, emotional, physical, and social tasks to accomplish (Katz, 1989). While children may have the ability to perform a task, that does not mean that the task is appropriate and should be performed. Educators agree that learning to read, write, and compute are undeniably important skills for children to acquire. The question is how and when they should be learned.

Welcome to Beech Class - 2017
Sparks Might Fly
During the first half term the topic in class was 'Sparks Might Fly'. Within this topic the children learnt about electricity in science and in Design Technology the children worked in small groups to make a mechanical system that will include a circuit.
In science the children were given the opportunity to experiment with circuits, working out how to get a bulb to light, what happened if you added another battery, what happened if you added another bulb and could they work a buzzer or motor? The children also tested objects around the classroom to check if they were conductors or insulators by including the objects into a working circuit. The children also thought carefully about how electricity is used around the house and whether it uses batteries or mains electricity. The children have also identified what electricity is used for, such as heating things, lighting and cooling etc.
In Design Technology the children have worked in groups to create their own mechanical systems that can be used around school. We have a range of systems from door bells to traffic lights to electric pencil sharpeners. We even had a chair buzzer made by one group so that if you swing on your chair the buzzer will go off. The children worked together to think of the ideas, design their product, think about required resources, build and decorate the system and fit a working circuit inside it.
In music, the children thought carefully about the different sounds that electrical appliances make and they produced a song or rap in small groups. The children had some great lyrics in their songs and some groups even performed to the whole school and some parents in our class assembly. They were great!
In English, the children have written explanations, play scripts and fantasy stories, relating to our topic. They focussed on explanations from 'Until I met Dudley' and wrote some crazy explanations about how our electrical appliances really work. The children also wrote some great play scripts do accompany a short film, Dangle, that didn't have any dialogue. Finally, the children wrote some great fantasy stories based on the novel The Firework Makers Daughter. We read this in class, allowed the children to extract the plot and then created their own plot.
In Maths in this half term the children have been learning about place value, 2D shapes and addition and subtraction. The children have been learning to use different methods to approach each of the topics. In particular, they have been partitioning numbers in order to double, halve and round and estimate. This has then helped them when they have been adding. Some of the children have used practical resources to help them understand why we exchange when adding. The children have been measuring the perimeter of shapes as well as the perimeter of spaces and objects around school. The children collected information about the children's favourite items and then recorded this information in a tally chart.
Autumn 2
The Great Plague
During the second autumn half term the topic in Beech Class was 'The Great Plague'. The children thoroughly enjoyed this topic, learning about the gory details about what happened.
In history the children learnt about The Great Fire of London and how this changed London. They learnt about the plague, the symptoms of it and its catastrophic outcome. The children carried out some great research and created some excellent, informative posters about The Plague. The children also wrote a diary entry, putting themselves in the shoes of somebody that was alive during the plague. The children really immersed themselves in this and produced some great pieces of work.
In English, the children wrote some super poems about The Plague as well as writing newspaper reports about the breakout of the plague. They learnt how to read reports by adding appropriate expression and fluency to their voices. We also looked at the fairy tales of The Pied Piper and Puss in Boots. The children did some excellent preparation work in relation to this and this enabled them to write some great fairy tales of their own following the plot of Puss in Boots.
In computing, the children became familiar with purple mash to enable them to complete homework set on the program. They have also transferred their knowledge of data to transfer their findings that they recorded on a tally chart onto a bar chart using purple mash.
In maths the children learnt different techniques to help them to mentally subtract and multiply increasingly larger numbers. They then transferred this knowledge and understanding to written methods of subtraction and multiplication, using the column and grid methods. The children then used their knowledge of subtraction to complete some tricky division calculations. Some of the children divided using repeated subtraction on a number line and some children took this a step further and introduced chunking.
In science the children learnt about an independent topic of sound. They learnt all about how sound is made through the vibration of molecules sending signals to the nerves in your brain, as well as how sound is affected by distance and material.
Welcome to Beech Class - 2016
In Maths in this half term the children have been learning about place value, 2D shapes and addition and subtraction. The children have been learning to use different methods to approach each of the topics. In particular, they have been partitioning numbers in order to double, halve and round and estimate. This has then helped them when they have been adding. Some of the children have used practical resources to help them understand why we exchange when adding. The children have been measuring the perimeter of shapes as well as the perimeter of spaces and objects around school.
In Science the children have been learning about Light and Shadows. The children have explored using different light sources. We had a disco in the dark to experiment which light sources helped us to find objects in the dark. We have used different materials and objects to form shadows and looked at how we can change the shadows. The children had a competition of who could make the best shadow monster using resources outside and the sun as a light source. More recently, the children have been exploring with mirrors. They have found horizontal and vertical lines of symmetry in the alphabet, enabling them to make symmetrical words. They have also used mirrors to find their way around a maze, using just the reflection to help them, as well as using mirrors at different angles to see how this changes the view of an object.
During the first half Autumn term our class topic is 'There's no place like home'. We have been linking all our topic work to this area.
In English the children have been learning about and writing their own folk tales. We have used 'The Lancashire Giant' as the basis of our topic. The children have carried out role play of the story and verbally retold it. We planned a class folk tale story, that all the children had to write a part of. The children have then planned and wrote their own folk tale story that we will be making a class book of.
Our topic areas for this half term have been History and Geography. The children have been learning about the geographical features of our local area in relation to the world, the country and our local area. The children identified the human and physical features of St Michael's on Wyre. They also identified their local area on a variety of maps, labeling their houses and the points of interest around their village. In History the children will be learning about how St Michael's on Wyre has changed over time, in particular the school. We will have some visitors in to talk to them about how the school is different now to how it was in the past. We will also be looking at how the houses and people's lives in general have changed over time. Finally, we will be covering the Abbeystead Disaster, understanding how this happened and the affect it had on people's lives.
Second Half Term
During the second half term our topic is 'Healthy Humans'. As an introduction to the topic we went to Eureka to take part in a workshop about the digestive system and explored the 'All About Me' section of the museum, which was all very hands on. The main focus for this topic is keeping the body healthy.
In Science the children are going to learn all about keeping the body healthy through exercise, eating healthily and keeping hydrated. We will be looking at the sugar content of a variety of drinks as well as looking at the diets of different animals compared to our own. We are then going to plan our own healthy picnic which we are going to host for another class. This will include the children making the food for the picnic as well as all of the packaging. They will educate the other class on how to keep healthy. The children will also be carrying out observational drawings of fruit in Art.
In Maths the children are doing a lot of work on subtraction, both mentally and written. We will also be focusing on telling the time, to the nearest five minutes and minute on both analogue and digital clocks, with some children looking at the 24 hour clock. We will also be learning about coordinates and will be linking this with Christmas.
In English the children will be learning about Fables and will be writing their own. They are looking at animals with opposite personality traits and identifying lessons that are learnt in Fables. They will also be looking at persuasive texts and will write a persuasive leaflet or poster that will be given to another class during our healthy picnic. Finally, the children will be investigating different shape poems and will write their own relating to healthy food and Christmas.

Specialists can help guide you through this difficult time.
Drug Treatment Program Pompano Beach
Fear and apprehension are commonly the greatest challenges to addiction recovery, which can be a long and challenging task that will more than likely require help from professionals. Obtaining the appropriate support and professional help, you can conquer your substance abuse problem.
At Drug Treatment Facility Pompano Beach we provide a full spectrum of addiction treatment programs for people that arrive at our facility struggling with addiction. Most people that become dependent on drugs like percocet, vicodin, lortab, heroin, cocaine, meth and other drugs that cause abuse and addiction are typically at a loss of how to recover on their own. We have helped countless struggling addicts to overcome their addiction with our extensive rehabilitation protocols.
The initial step of our treatment program is our detoxification process. After an individual has taken an addictive drug for a regular period of time an addiction develops for the drug. Once dependence or addiction has developed it is often unsafe to suddenly quit without professional assistance from a medically monitored detoxification program. Addictive substances such as alcohol, valium, heroin, meth, xanax, vicodin and others produce a wide range of withdrawal symptoms such as agitation, anxiety, muscle aches, insomnia, vomiting, sweating, diarrhea, cramping, nausea, lethargy and other symptoms.
At Drug Treatment Program Pompano Beach we provide the often necessary medical assistance to make our clients as comfortable as possible in the detoxification process. We offer 24 hour care and support throughout this critical first phase in the treatment process. Our clients often express that they feel a renewed sense of hope once they have finished the detox process.
An essential step in recovering from addiction is to realize that you have a problem. A person who refuses to accept they are addicted cannot move forward to solving a problem they deny they have. For many people, when it comes to taking a honest look into their addiction situation, along with that requires also to look at how and why it developed to start with. Addiction often happens when a person uses a substance to self-medicate in order to deal with negative thoughts, feelings, and emotions. If a person doesn't figure out the underlying issues guiding their addiction and does not reach out for help, it will typically be almost impossible for them to overcome their addiction.
Recognizing that you have a problem is a very important part of recovery from alcohol addiction or drug abuse. However you also need to have the desire to put forth the effort to change it. Taking inventory of the reasons for making a change keep you focused and motivated on rehabilitation. Many say it helps to make a list the reasons why they want to change. Reasons could be, for example, wanting to be a better mother/father, experience more joy in life, to feel more accomplished and successful, repair relationships with family and friends, to improve your health, or to reverse other negative situations that addiction causes.
Do not just concentrate and be absorbed on the circumstances and problems caused by your substance abuse, because focusing too much on the negative consequences of the past usually makes you feel hopeless. Instead, focus on your new addiction-free life and recovery. Think about the great things that will surely happen when you have recovered from addiction. At Drug Rehab Center Pompano Beach we will help you to embrace your new opportunities for a happy, productive, addiction-free life. A new life fulfilling past forgotten goals and dreams in your newly created addiction-free life. You will feel better physically, have more energy and enthusiasm, be more secure financially, have lasting relationships, be more productive at work, and have time to have fun and explore new hobbies and recreation. Taking the time to list out these goals can keep you motivated during the rehab process.
Long Term Rehabilitation goals
At Drug Rehab Center Pompano Beach we know that the number one factor in determining success is whether the client has truly overcome their addiction to drugs and alcohol. Success can only be determined by the patient's belief in their ability to remain drug free. Short term rehab protocols commonly fall short of this goal.
We feel that it is critical not to be under time restraints while in rehab. The time that you stay in treatment can offer a lifetime of sobriety, it is well worth the investment of whatever time that it needs. We find the underlying reasons that will be at the root of the addiction. We will help you to fix the problems that you have created in your life so that you are not filled with disappointment. You will be taught life skills, coping skills and relapse prevention methods so that you are not just sober when you are done, but know how to remain clean for the rest of your life. We know that you want a drug free life and we are here to provide you a way to achieve it.
Relapse Prevention
The only person who can change you is you. At Drug Rehab Facility Pompano Beach it helps to be immersed in a strong support network to help you succeed. Therefore, hold onto the relationships in your life that are positive and supportive. On the other hand, be cautious about maintaining the unsupported and negative relationships in your life, such as past associates that continue to use drugs, or relationships that make you feel incapable or inadequate.
Detox is only the first phase in a long process of recovery at Drug Rehab Pompano Beach; But will also help you to learn the the things that trigger your addiction urges. Anxiety, stress inhibitions, deficiencies in confidence etc. are all potential triggers for addiction. Learning healthy trigger management concepts and skills will help you to push away and overcome the urge to use drugs. Our facility activities include exercise, nutrition, cognitive education therapy, drug education, coping skills, life skills, craving and relapse prevention training.

The author of God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything said that he is a "guinea pig" for a new personalised medicine partly developed by Dr Francis Collins, a geneticist with very strong religious views.
The two had often met in the past as adversaries in the debate about whether God exists.
Against the odds they had become friends.
Now Hitchens is one of the few people in the world who has had his entire genetic make up mapped and is receiving a new treatment that targets his own damaged DNA.
"I'm an experiment," Hitchens said.
"These are early stages, but in theory it should attack the primary site of the tumour.
"If that does happen, it won't just be good news for me, it will be very exciting in the general treatment of cancer."
Dr Collins is a former director of the National Human Genome Research Project and is now the director of America's National Institutes of Health.
He is the author of a bestselling book, The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief.
"It is a rather wonderful relationship,' said Hitchens.
"I won't say he doesn't pray for me, because I think he probably does; but he doesn't discuss it with me.
"He agrees that his medical experience does not include anything that could be described as a miracle cure – he's never come across anything."
Hitchens, 61, originally from Portsmouth but now living in Washington DC, is an old Oxford University friend of the writer Martin Amis and has had a long journalistic career on both sides of the Atlantic.
In September 2005, he was named one of the "Top 100 Public Intellectuals" in the world by Foreign Policy and Prospect magazines.
Since the publication of his book he has become a hero of so-called New Atheism movement.
His pre-eminence has been enhanced by his steadfast refusal to change his views even after he was diagnosed with cancer of the oesophagus last year.
The prognosis looked very grave until a few weeks after his diagnosis he was asked if he would like to be a guinea pig in the new science of genome sequencing as a possible cure for cancer.
Samples were taken from healthy tissue and from his tumour and on each of them six billion DNA matches were run, in order to catalogue any mutations found in the cancerous cells.
He was warned to have no expectations.
But in the New Year came the good news that there is a genetic mutation found in the tumour for which there already exists a drug.
Having been on varying types and doses of chemotherapy, he is now on a regime of one pill a day.
"At least it spares me some of the boredom of being a cancer patient because what I'm going through is very absorbing and positively inspiring," he said.
"But if it doesn't work, I don't know what they could try next."
He remains hopeful, although he has been told that of 1,000 men of his age and in his condition, half could expect to be dead within a year.
Hitchens said that he is constantly contacted by other atheists telling him he can beat the cancer and this in itself makes him feel "alarmed to be a repository of other people's hope".
People have even started asking him to officiate at their weddings.
"It started a couple of years ago," he said.
"It's something I shall have to resist if I survive, and even if I don't – this very slightly cultish stuff starts to happen.
"You get letters from people you can hardly remember meeting: "I shall never forget the kindness …
"Unbelievably trivial stuff, but they've made it into a thing in their minds."

A wise man once told me, "kid, sometimes in life, all you need is an ugly cry." I did not know what he meant until I joined college and since that very moment, I've embarked on a journey to fi- okay, pfft, I can't do this anymore, I'm a guy with no happening life and so I watch a lot of movies. I enjoy different kinds of genres but I specifically love heart-wrenching, tear-jerking, punch-in-the-guts, heart-pumping, cry-like-a-papaya movies. (why is this not a legitimate sub genre, really?)
Death? love it.
Concentration camp? mmmh.
Mental illness? That's right baby.
Unrequited love? Keep going.
Apocalypse? aaaah.
Depression? that's it.
Children in peril? Yeah.
Terminal sickness? seven, seven, seven, seven!
Okay, I officially feel like a horrible person but sad movies keep my machine running, honestly. If you don't cry watching the movies on the list then I'm sorry to break it to you, but you're a robot. No, really, you're all artificial intelligence running on algorithms and you have no heart. Also, the movies on this list aren't just good sobs but really good movies, you should give them all a try.
Also, I will try to keep off the mainstream movies like Titanic, the fault in our stars, toy story 3, the notebook, Hachi and all.
Seven Pounds (2008)
This is one of the most underhyped movies by Will Smith, which needs more attention. Sure, the movie starts slowly, takes time to build up but indeed pays off emotionally. It has a few dull bits, but I don't really care because this movie is an absolute sob-genius. I remember watching it at night and I cried so hard that my sister woke up and asked me if I were okay, it was so embarrassing. Critics didn't appreciate this movie all that much, but they're all stupid turds. Invest time in this movie and you won't be disappointed.
Quotes from this movie
TII Rating: 8/10
Room (2015)
"ROOM tells the extraordinary story of Jack, a spirited 5-year-old who is looked after by his loving and devoted mother. Like any good mother, Ma dedicates herself to keeping Jack happy and safe, nurturing him with warmth and love and doing typical things like playing games and telling stories. Their life, however, is confined to a tiny space that Ma has named Room. Ma has created a whole universe for Jack within Room, & she will stop at nothing to ensure that, even in this treacherous environment, Jack is able to live a complete and fulfilling life. But as Jack's curiosity about their situation grows, and Ma's resilience reaches its breaking point, they enact a risky plan to escape, ultimately bringing them face-to-face with what may turn out to be the scariest thing yet: the real world."
It's not only a heart-wrenching movie, but also one of the best movies of 2015. It has everything, really, a perfect cast, great direction, well written, what not. First half of the movie is enclosed in one tiny room with 3 characters only, one of them being a kid. Now the challenge was to keep story moving & audience engaged, I really appreciate the direction how it made the best of its surrounding, you don't often see that. All this fancy stuff apart, this movie is beautiful and it will make you cry ugly. Also, huge shout out to Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay for phenomenal performances. This is a rare cinematic piece, DON'T SLEEP ON IT.
- "I've been in the world 37 hours. I've seen pancakes, and a stairs, and birds, and windows, and hundreds of cars. And clouds, and police, and doctors, and grandma and grandpa. But Ma says they don't live together in the hammock house anymore. Grandma lives there with her friend Leo now. And Grandpa lives far away. I've seen persons with different faces, and bigness, and smells, talking all together. The world's like all TV planets on at the same time, so I don't know which way to look and listen. There's doors and… more doors. And behind all the doors, there's another inside, and another outside. And things happen, happen, HAPPENING. It never stops. Plus, the world's always changing brightness, and hotness. And there's invisible germs floating everywhere."
- "There's so much of 'place' in the world. There's less time because the time has to be spread extra thin over all the places, like butter. so all the persons say 'Hurry up! Let's get going! Pick up the pace! Finish up now!'. Ma was in a hurry to go boing up to Heaven, but she forgot me. Dumbo Ma! So the aliens threw her back down. CRASH! And broke her."
TII Rating: 8.5/10
The Book Thief
"Liesel lives with her foster parents Hans and Rosa Hubermann in Nazi Germany. Hans teaches her to read and write in English. Her family shelters Max, a Jew, in their basement."
It does something to me, this movie. Every time. It steps on my heart. It makes me cry. A heart breaking story of a young girl narrated by Death. Yes, we have had movies with almost same plot line but trust me when I say this movie is a work of art. If you enjoy movies for quality film making, perfect acting and heart breaking drama, this is your movie. If you don't, this is your movie still. The only flaw with this movie is that the book is way, way better. I strongly recommend you to read the book first, dry your tears, take time to recover from hear break and then watch this movie. I'm not going into the plot of this movie, because it's fairly simple, but the way story is told is extraordinarily beautiful. Cry-0-meter 100/100.
- "When I finally came for Liesel, I took selfish pleasure in the knowledge that she had lived her ninety years so wisely. By then her stories had touched many souls, some of whom I came to know in passing. Max, whose friendship lasted almost as long as Liesel. Almost. In her final thoughts, she saw the long list of lives that merged with hers. Her three children, her grandchildren, her husband. Among them, lit like lanterns, were Hans and Rosa, her brother, and the boy whose hair remained the color of lemons forever. I wanted to tell the book thief she was one of the few souls that made me wonder what it was to live. But in the end there were no words. Only peace. The only truth I truly know is that I am haunted by humans."
- "One small fact: you are going to die. Despite every effort, no one lives forever. Sorry to be such a spoiler. My advice is when the time comes, don't panic. It doesn't seem to help."
TII Rating: 9/10
Requiem For A Dream
Watching this movie has been the most powerful and intense cinematic experience I have ever had. It tells parallel stories of four different people with four different dreams, and how eventually they succumb to their addictions. This is, hands down, Jared Leto's best work yet, even after 16 years. The only thing better than direction and acting is its beautifully scary soundtrack composed by Hans Zimmer, the god of music. This movie has everything to offer if you love intense drama movies. In closing, this is probably the most depressing movie ever made & after you watch this movie, repeat after me, I WILL NEVER DO DRUGS. DRUGS ARE SCARY.
Ugly cry alert.
- "I'm somebody now, Harry. Everybody likes me. Soon, millions of people will see me and they'll all like me. I'll tell them about you, and your father, how good he was to us. Remember? It's a reason to get up in the morning. It's a reason to lose weight, to fit in the red dress. It's a reason to smile. It makes tomorrow all right. What have I got Harry, hm? Why should I even make the bed, or wash the dishes? I do them, but why should I? I'm alone. Your father's gone, you're gone. I got no one to care for. What have I got, Harry? I'm lonely. I'm old."
"You got friends, Ma.""Ah, it's not the same. They don't need me. I like the way I feel. I like thinking about the red dress and the television and you and your father. Now when I get the sun, I smile."
Me and Earl and The Dying Girl
"An awkward high-school senior and a gravely ill classmate surprise themselves by becoming inseparable friends."
This is the most underrated, the funniest and the saddest movie on this list. Me and Earl and The Dying Girl based on a book of the same name, will make you go on an emotional rollercoaster, you're gonna laugh so hard that you will almost forget about the movie's name and everything will seem okay with the world, but I'm sorry, fair warning, you're gonna cry your eyes out. If you thought The Fault In Our Stars was sad, well, you're in for a treat, buddy. The thing I like the most about this movie is that it surprises you, you go in all with tissues, ready to cry your eyes out, and boom! you're laughing like a maniac and just when you're comfortable laughing, boom! you're crying like a banana.
- "Dear Pittsburgh State Admissions, I'm writing on behalf of someone who gave me half a year of his life at the time when I was at my most difficult to be around. He has a very low opinion of himself, which is why I think it's necessary that you hear from someone who sees him as he actually is: A limitlessly kind, sweet, giving, and genuine person. No matter how much he would deny it. The drop in his academic performance this year is the consequence of all the time he spent with me and the time he spent making things for me and how hard that was for him. You can ask him about it, but his sort of over the top humility will probably get in the way. No one has done more to make me smile than he has. And no one ever could."
- "So if this was a touching romantic story this is probably where a new feeling would wash over me and suddenly we would be furiously making out with the fire of a thousand suns. But this isn't a touching romantic story."
Perks Of Being A Wallflower
Charlie, a 15-year-old introverted bright Pittsburgh boy, enters high school and is nervous about his new life. He is befriended by his seniors who show him the way to the real world
I feel like this is one of the mainstream movies that almost everyone has watched, but I really couldn't resist adding it to the list because it's one the best coming-to-age drama movies. For the first time you see Emma Watson isn't just Hermione, but she's indeed a wonderful actor. There's Logan Lerman, Ezra Miller, what I'm trying to say is that the cast is perfect, the story is perfect, the soundtrack is perfect. Everything is just in place to make you weep tear balls. If you're having a hard time with life and you wanna cry yourself to sleep with a little positivity, this is the movie for you. Also, read the book if you're into reading, it's totally worth it.
- "My doctor said we can't choose where we come from but we can choose where we go from there. I know it's not all the answers but it was enough to start putting these pieces together."
- You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love.
I know who you are, Sam. I know I'm quiet… and, and I know I should speak more. But if you knew the things that were in my head most of the time, you'd know what it really meant. How, how much we're alike, and how we've been through the same things… and you're not small. You're beautiful.
Short Term 12
"A 20-something supervising staff member of a residential treatment facility navigates the troubled waters of that world alongside her co-worker and longtime boyfriend."
I can understand the working of Quantum Physics, I can understand why they chose to make Percy Jackson movies, BUT I cannot understand how this beautiful piece of cinematic story is the most underappreciated movie of all time. I have watched it thrice now and the more I watch it, the more I fall in love with it. The acting is so flawless that it doesn't feel like they are acting at all, it feels all real. The movie has greater emotional impact because you don't really see what's coming, yeah, a giant emotional roller-coaster.
- "Why are you so nice to me?"
"Because you're the weirdest, most beautiful person I've ever met in my entire life."
Other emotionally worthy movies that I didn't mention in the list. Be sure to look them up.
- Children of Men
- Her
- Pursuit of Happyness
- The Fault in our Stars
- Toy Story 3
- Me and Marley

Rebeckah Adcock, senior director of government relations at CropLife America (CLA) was awarded the 2016 National Alliance of Independent Crop Consultants (NAICC) Service to Agriculture Award at the President's Luncheon and Awards Ceremony during the NAICC Annual Meeting and Ag Pro Expo.
"From her time in the public sector to her work at CLA and the Pesticide Policy Coalition (PPC), Rebeckah has proven over and over her dedication to the American farmer and the ag industry," Allison Jones, executive vice president of NAICC, said. "NAICC sincerely appreciates Rebeckah's willingness to meet with our executive board and our governmental affairs committee members each year in Washington, D.C. We are honored to work with her on the PPC and are thankful for her leadership and insight into the complex issues we face."
The award is presented to a person who has greatly contributed and dedicated themselves to serving the agricultural community and its independent practitioners. Adcock also spoke at the expo to update participants on government affairs on topics like worker protection and applicator certification. She reminded the NAICC members in attendance that working with CLA and their resources would prove to be invaluable.
"Crop consultants are an instrumental part of the farming process," Adcock said. "Your expertise in many areas, including pest management, guides the growth of our nation's food, and CLA members are grateful for your devotion to making sure that farmers know about the best pesticide technology available. CLA will continue to work to make sure that you and the growers you serve have a broad array of crop protection product options to use to precisely deal with specific threats."
Adcock told those in attendance that their voices are vital in the conversation on farming in the U.S., and that among CLA's support services is providing information on the importance of pest management to crop growth.
"Together, through constant dialogue and coordination among those working on the ground in agriculture and in government and industry, we can defeat crop threats and advance pest control methods," she said.
