Venn Diagram: Definition
A Venn diagram can be defined as an illustration of the relationships between and among sets and/or groups of objects that share something in common. Usually, Venn diagrams are used to depict set intersections as given below.
The drawing is an example of a Venn diagram that shows the relationship among three overlapping sets X, Y, and Z.
There are some regions which are common to X & Y(X ∩Y), X & Z (X ∩Z),Y & Z (Y ∩Z) and all three of X,Y,Z (X ∩Y ∩Z). These are called intersecting regions.
A typical three-set Venn diagram can be represented as follows:
Some important Venn Diagrams:
All A are B
This implies that A is a subset of B i.e. A is encompassed in B but not necessarily vice versa.
This implies that both A and B are subsets of each other A i.e. both the A and B are contained in each other.
No A are B
This implies that both A and B are not contained in each other i.e. it can be said that both A and B are independent sets.
Some A are B
Here some part of A and some part of B are intersecting and also, some B areA also holds true.
Some A are not B
Here, this implies that some part of A is surely not included in B and it is uncertain whether the remaining part of A is included in B or not.

African Championships in Athletics
The African Championships in Athletics is a continental athletics event organized by the Confederation of African Athletics. It is generally organised biennially, meaning every four years it is held in the same year as the Summer Olympics.
The 2008 competition was held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, the 2010 edition was held in Nairobi, Kenya.
The event featured a men's marathon from 1979 to 1990. Following it being dropped from the programme an African Marathon Championships was briefly contested.[1] The event programme has roughly matched that of the IAAF World Championships in Athletics, with the exception of the 50 kilometres race walk.[2]

I'm forty years old, and I'm trying to live in a genuine way. Anyone who's done this will tell you that it's harder than it sounds.
I've spent most of my life in academia, but I don't consider myself an academic. I have a Ph.D. in English Literature, and I've taught courses at several universities; I've also been a clerk at a comic book shop, the night manager of a 24-hour deli, and a stay-at-home father. I've wanted to be a writer since I was nine, but I've never done so professionally.
I'm a geek in the worst sense of the word: roleplaying games, MMORPGs, MU*s, you name it and I've done it. I enjoy fantasy fiction, history, poetry, early modern literature, walks in the woods, gardens and baseball. I am compelled by erotica in all its flavors, and my sexual tastes run towards dominance and submission. Time permitting, I'm not a bad cook.
This will be a journal about my writing, my thoughts and my pleasures– the cordial drop in my cup of life. Enjoy.

Windfall Opportunities
We like to call the big-fish opportunities "windfalls." Unlike your wheelhouse, a windfall is that heavyweight business deal that flies through your doors at a moment's notice. It's an added bonus—a juicy profit you weren't anticipating, but will welcome with open arms when it comes along.
An important distinction between your wheelhouse and a windfall is that the latter is an opportunity to make a sizable profit, but it can't be relied upon to keep your business afloat. Why? Because by their nature, windfalls are unreliable—that is, they cannot be expected to appear consistently. Ironically though, windfalls are a direct result of your consistency. They materialize because you've been consistent with your wheelhouse and with performing the same, high leverage activities daily.
Here is what we mean: Our core business model at Hard Money Bankers is lending to real estate investors. Because we're consistent with our business model and services, we are able to capitalize on more lucrative deals (i.e., windfalls) when they arise. Why? Because our hands and minds are free. Because our financial wheelhouse doesn't require all of our attention, it gives us the financial confidence necessary to take risks.
The ability to take advantage of windfalls is directly linked to your wheelhouse. Remember, your financial foundation comes first. The trunk must be rooted in a strong foundation in order for you to branch out, take risks, and grow. It also needs to be largely self-sustaining. Keeping your wheelhouse on autopilot allows you to focus your energy on the big deals without having to worry about whether you're going to make enough revenue by the end of the month to make payroll or keep the electricity on. This endows you with confidence and a strong sense of security so that your mind can be free to think outside the box and spot a potential windfall when it blows in your direction.
"How do I spot a windfall?" you may ask. First of all, don't chase them. Ever. That's a gross waste of time. The chase will go on endlessly. The best way to put yourself in the path of potential windfall opportunities is to cultivate your sphere of influence. If you work in real estate, for example, the more time you spend in that world—the more conferences, seminars, and networking events you attend, talking with the people who are conducting the deals you want to do—the greater the likelihood that a large real estate transaction will eventually present itself to you.
All that seizing a windfall truly requires is strategic networking and the ability to remain alert so you can capitalize on opportunities when they arise. As highlighted in previous chapters, this is why cultivating your intuition through trial and error is so vital. It allows you to spot the golden opportunities that are worth your efforts. Trust your instincts when it comes to windfalls, and be sure to run with them: the wind is known for its speed, but that's okay because so are you—or you will be before long.

Theme Speaker
The Rev. Dr. Jim Antal is a Minister and President of the Massachusetts Conference of the United Church of Christ, and former Executive Secretary of the Fellowship of Reconciliation. He provides national leadership as a climate activist for the United Church of Christ.
Minister of the Week
Reverend Matilda Rose Cantwell, MSW, is the College Chaplain and Director of the Center for Religious and Spiritual Life at Smith College. She served as a Senior Fellow for three years before that, developing an initiative to promote a "justice, identity and social change" theme, designed to undergird and rejuvenate social justice work with contemplative practices. Currently she is working with colleagues and students on two small seed grants, one of which is in support of undocumented students; the other in collaboration with the wider community on refugee resettlement. Her interests and pursuits include faith- based activism, ecofeminism, mental health and spirituality, psychoanalytic theory and theology, the philosophy of active non-violence, and spiritual development in children and young adults.
Prior to beginning her official ministry Matilda was trained and worked as a Clinical Social Worker, leading creative writing groups, therapeutic farming/gardening programs for teens, and organizing forums deigned to build bridges and introduce transformative justice into underserved communities. She has studied interfaith dialogue in Indonesia and explored religious themes in Honduras, Guatemala, and Nepal, developing a concept of "spiritual sustainability" with respect to religious beliefs and foreign aid.
Matilda holds a bachelor's degree in religious studies from Lewis and Clark College, a master's degree from Smith College School for Social Work, and a master of divinity from Yale Divinity School. Her love of the natural world began in childhood, and one of her greatest influences was her grandparents who were lifelong Star Island conferees, and her mother, also a conferee, who raised her among chickens and goats and taking long walks along a river in central Ohio. Matilda enjoys cycling, running, hiking and gardening, and most of all spending time with family, which includes two boys ages 7 and 10. She enjoys writing and has written and published a poem or two here and there.
Matilda was a Shapley Book Fellow on Star Island for the 2014 IRAS conference, where she presented her paper, Beyond Belief: Shifting the Discourse on Religion in Higher Ed and Beyond. She oversees her department's blog, which is at https://sophia.smith.edu/religious-spiritual-life. She is working on a paper with a colleague about the theological and clinical implications of 'Facebook grieving;" wherein virtual communities are created around those that have deceased; that was developed when she was awarded a research grant and participation in a one year project;Memory: Form, Function and Fallibility, through Smith's interdisciplinary Kahn Institute Seminar.
She is very honored and excited to work with Jim Antal, and all the great people who attend SG2, and engage in worship and play with adults and children on the magical island.

"God cannot bless a nation that embraces the murder of innocent children."
Those powerful words were recently posted by Evangelist Franklin Graham on Facebook.
Throughout Graham's Decision America Tour, he has emphasized the importance of considering candidates' positions on abortion. "We need political leaders who will, along with citizens who value life, stand up for the most vulnerable and voiceless among us," Graham wrote.
Evangelism and Government
- Joined at the hip -
"Evangelism is our sole purpose and goal." This is often heard from pastors and laity throughout America. But how many of the same pastors and laity make any connection between evangelism and government?
Just how important is government in bringing the Gospel to others? It is monumentally important. It is the difference between living in America and living in China or Iran.
The gospel message is preached in America because we are a nation governed by Christian principles. Our Nation's birth certificate, the Declaration of Independence, declares our foundational belief that God has ordained our unalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Immediately following this profession is the statement that government is instituted to protect these rights. This is what sets us apart from the governments of socialism or communism or Islam. America's government is set on Christian beliefs and Biblical principles. There is intrinsic harmony between church and state.
ATTEMPTING THE IMPOSSIBLE for America's Preborns, the Church, and Our Republic
Mindful of our nation's confused values and erratic politics, many in Pro-Life today may deem passage of a Constitutional Life Amendment impossible.
Others may choose a stronger term and deem the mere thought of passage absurd. If no state, for example, has been able or willing to close its last abortion center and test Roe v. Wade's permanence, should Pro-Life expect two-thirds of the U.S. Congress to authorize a Constitutional Life Amendment and 38 states to ratify it?
But there is more to consider. Tozer's challenging words (above) help to untangle what clouds our minds about the feasibility of a Life Amendment campaign. His words affirm what our spirit knows to be true, that "God is looking for those with whom He can do the impossible." God has always done so, with notable success. And is it "not a pity that we plan only the things that we can do by ourselves?"

text: After years of development, Chinese International Exhibition of textile yarn played the role of the exhibition; it also held many technical seminars, and combined with the Chinese fiber trends released and other activities. It will promote China's cutting-edge products and technology, which makes the textile industry to enhance the overall value of the industry chain from the source. Over the years, through the "multi development linkage" with the upstream and downstream exhibitions of the industrial chain, exhibitors have been more targeted, and it played the role of industry windows, ties and platforms. Nowadays, excellent enterprises have become the main body of innovation. Exhibitors are more and more aware of using exhibitions to introduce themselves effectively. Meanwhile, overseas enterprises have gradually realized the great potential of Chinese market. More and more overseas enterprises focus their sales on the Chinese market, which means that yarn exhibition has become one of the important exhibitions in the global yarn industry.

13 Airport Workers Test Positive for TB
Thirteen workers at Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport employees have tested positive for tuberculosis, health officials said.
Manatee County epidemiologist Dr. James Ogedegbe said Wednesday a total of 299 airport employees have been tested since Monday for the disease. A positive test does not necessarily indicate a person has become infected with the disease, Ogedegbe said.
"If you test the normal population, you would expect 8 to 10 percent to come up positive," Ogedegbe said. "We expected to find about 10 percent today. What we have now is less than 10 percent."
The tests came after one skycap tested positive last week. Another skycap who died in October after a heart attack also had tested positive for tuberculosis.
Airport officials maintain that travelers passing through the facility are not in danger of contracting tuberculosis, an airborne disease which can be highly contagious, but only when in active stages.
Tuberculosis often affects the respiratory system, although it can also affect the intestines, bones, joints, skin and nervous system.

BIOS will soon be abandoned: Intel has announced plans to replace it with UEFI on all their chipsets by 2020. Well, what is UEFI, and what's the difference with BIOS that we all know before?
UEFI and BIOS is software low levels that start when you start your PC before booting on your operating system, but UEFI is a more modern solution, supports larger hard drives, faster boot times, more security features, and cursor graphics
Many of today's PCs have started using UEFI and many still call it "BIOS" to avoid confusing people who are familiar with the term BIOS in traditional PCs. Even if your PC uses the term "BIOS", the modern PC you buy today almost certainly uses non-BIOS UEFI firmware. This is the reason.
What is a BIOS?
The BIOS stands for Basic Input-Output System . This is a low-level software that resides in a chip on your computer's motherboard. The BIOS loads when your computer is turned on, and the BIOS is responsible for waking up your computer's hardware components, making sure it functions properly, then running a bootloader running Windows or any other operating system you have installed.
You can configure various settings on the settings screen BIOS. Settings like your computer's hardware configuration, system time, and boot sequence are here. You can access the BIOS by pressing certain keys, different on each computer, but mostly Esc, F2, F10, or Delete when the computer boots. When you save the settings, it will be saved to memory on your own motherboard. When you boot your computer, the BIOS will configure your PC with stored settings.
The BIOS runs via POST, or Power-On Self Test, before booting on your operating system. It checks to make sure your hardware configuration is valid and working properly. If anything goes wrong, you will see an error message or hear a series of beep codes . You should look for a different beep sequence in the computer manual.
When your computer boots-and after the POST-BIOS finishes look for the Master Boot Record, or MBR, stored on the boot device and use it to launch the bootloader.
Why BIOS Start Abandoned
BIOS has been around for a long time, and has not evolved much. Even MS-DOS PCs released in the 1980s used the BIOS!
Of course, the BIOS has evolved and improved over time. Several extensions were developed, including ACPI, Advanced Configuration and Power Interface. This allows the BIOS to more easily configure the device and perform advanced power management functions, such as sleep. But the BIOS has not had a significant advance, almost the same as other PC technologies since the days of MS-DOS.
The traditional BIOS still has serious limitations. It can only boot from a 2.1 TB drive or less. A 3 TB drive is now common, and computers with BIOS can not boot from the drive. The limitations are caused by the workings of the Master Boot Master BIOS system.
The BIOS must run in 16-bit processor mode, and has only 1 MB of space to be executed. It has a problem in initializing multiple hardware devices at once, which causes the boot process to be slower when initializing all interfaces and hardware on modern devices. PC.
BIOS requires replacement for a long time. Intel began working on the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) specification in 1998. Apple selected EFI when it switched to Intel architecture on a Mac in 2006, but other PC manufacturers did not follow.
In 2007, Intel, AMD, Microsoft and The PC approves the new Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) specification. This is an industry standard managed by the Unified Extended Firmware Interface Forum, and is not driven solely by Intel. UEFI support is introduced to Windows with Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and Windows 7. Most computers you can buy now use UEFI instead of traditional BIOS.
How UEFI Replaces the BIOS Position
There is no way to switch from BIOS to UEFI on an existing PC. You have to buy new hardware that supports UEFI, like most other new computers. Most UEFI implementations provide BIOS emulation so you can choose to install and boot older operating systems that expect BIOS rather than UEFI, so it's compatible with both.
This new standard avoids BIOS limitations. UEFI firmware can boot from a 2.2 TB drive or larger, the theoretical limit is 9.4 zettabytes. That's about three times the approximate size of all the data on the Internet. That's because UEFI uses the GPT partition scheme and not the MBR. It also boots in a more standard way, launching EFI executable files instead of running code from the master boot drive record.
UEFI can run in 32-bit or 64-bit mode and has address space that is more addressable than BIOS, meaning process Your boot is faster. This also means that the UEFI setup screen can be more slick than the BIOS settings screen, including graphic and mouse cursor support. However, this is not mandatory. Many PCs still use the UEFI text-mode setting interface that looks and works like an old BIOS setup screen.
UEFI is packed with other features. It supports Secure Boot, which means the operating system can be checked for validity to ensure no malware is damaging to the boot process. It can support network features right in UEFI's own firmware, which can help troubleshoot and configure remotely. With the traditional BIOS, you have to sit in front of a physical computer to configure it.
UEFI is basically a small operating system that runs on top of PC firmware, and this can do more than just BIOS. UEFI can be stored in flash memory on the motherboard, or it may be loaded from the hard drive or network at boot time.
PCs with UEFI will have different interfaces and features. It's all up to your PC manufacturer, but it's basically the same on every PC.
How to Access UEFI Settings on a Modern PC
If you want to access low-level settings, there may be slight differences. You may need to access the UEFI settings screen via the Windows boot menu option instead of pressing a button while your computer is on. With PCs now booting up fast, PC manufacturers do not want to slow down the boot process by waiting to see if you press a button. However, we also see a PC with UEFI that lets you access the BIOS in the same way, by pressing a button during the boot process.
UEFI is a big change.

Hummel – Vienna Again and Marriage
He was to stay there for four eventful years, back in the mainstream of musical life, during which time he courted and married Elisabeth Röckel, an attractive and well–known singer and sister of Josef Röckel who had taken over the role of Florestan in the first revision of Beethoven's opera Leonora performed in March 1806. Elisabeth was just 19 when they met in 1812 – they married the following year – and Beethoven, whom she knew well, was a serious admirer. However Beethoven was deeply involved in an emotional crisis – to set up home or not – with his "Immortal Beloved" (almost certainly Antonie Brentano according to Beethoven's biographer, Maynard Solomon, though he considered Elisabeth's candidacy) in 1812. Thus the rivals made different decisions, each of which had significant consequences for their future music.
Marriage to Elisabeth was a crossroads that saw a more mature and selfless Hummel emerge, but ended his life as a dedicated composer at a time he was reaching the highest levels of his art. She encouraged him to restart his career as a virtuoso pianist, which led him to compose some major works for his own performance. It would not be unrealistic that she had a significant influence on her husband, in spite of her youth.
The defeat of Napoleon in 1813 led to the commission of Beethoven's Wellington's Victory and Hummel was one of many famous musicians who formed the orchestra for its premiere in December 1813. Apart from Beethoven, who conducted, others included Salieri, Spohr, Meyerbeer and Moscheles. Hummel was invited to give a concert for the Congress of Vienna in 1814, and regained his formidable reputation as a pianist, particularly as Beethoven's performing career was over. His first son Eduard – who would also have a career as a pianist – was born in the same year, his second son Carl – who became an excellent painter – didn't arrive for a further eight years.
Hummel and his wife next set off on a concert tour that included Trieste, Pressburg and Prague. In January 1816 he returned to Vienna to premiere his Septet, Op.74. While in Prague Hummel gave a piano recital attended by fellow composer and virtuoso pianist Carl Maria von Weber, on whom he made a huge impression. Further concerts helped reinforce his reputation as an exceptional performing artist and convince him that concert tours should be an important part of his future activities.

text: Parents Say They Spotted Jesus in Daughter's Sonogram Pa. couple marvel at ultrasound photo that shows image that looks like son of God By Jenn Gidman, Newser Staff Posted Aug 25, 2017 9:39 AM CDT 46 comments What do you see? (WPMT) (Newser) – We've seen Jesus on an apple, Jesus on a power utility pole, and now, out of Pennsylvania ... Jesus in a sonogram. WPMT reports that a couple there whose older two children were born with birth defects found comfort in the ultrasound for their third, which showed not only the fetus of their soon-to-arrive baby girl, Briella, but, they say, the son of God watching over her from the far left of the frame. "When they gave [the sonogram picture] to us ... umm, to me, it's Jesus," says mom Alicia Zeek. Her fiance, Zachary Smith, says that when he saw the image, "it almost brought tears to my eyes" and rendered him "speechless." The couple, who say they're not terribly religious, weren't freaked out by the sonogram, though: They were "relieved," Smith tells Inside Edition. That's because Zeek had trouble with her first two pregnancies, and their other two children, a daughter and son, were born with two thumbs on one hand and a cleft palate, respectively. And pregnancy No. 3 was beset by preeclampsia, making the pair anxious. "Our nerves were just wrecked," Smith notes. But the BBC reports Briella was born Wednesday and that she and Zeek are both healthy and doing fine. Smith says their family members "told us somebody was watching over [Briella]. ... We're really blessed." Meanwhile, HuffPost offers a couple of other "ultra-interesting" sonograms to recently pop up, including one of a fetus appearing to make the "rock on" sign and one of twin girls looking like they're giving each other a kiss. (In this sonogram, a twin appears to clutch his dying brother's hand.)

So, I am bored and here's a collection of whatsapp statuses of random people (in my contacts, don't know how ethical is that 😛 ) and some of my old ones as well. You won't believe how much time I waste going through these and thinking about what to put next. Earlier it used to be a form of connection between me and a friend who used it to convey messages when we weren't talking. Ah, good old memories. Now it's just another blank space to fill.
- "Conversations are best after 3am. The heavier the eyelids, the sincerer the words and the silence is not awkward, it's shared."
- "Gotta get me some golden earth and blue skies."

- "To unpathed waters and undreamed shores."
- "If not us, who? If not now, when?
- "Till the full stop doesn't come, the sentence is incomplete."

It should be fine, if your phone is stolen, they would have to go through your password and if they did have access to it, they would not know the 3 digits on the back. Having something like apple pay is even more dangerous.

Earlier today, Drake sent out a cryptic tweet, posting up a picture stating 'VIEWS' with an NYC address on the bottom.
Of course, hundreds of fans rushed to the NYC street, where it was revealed to be a Drake pop-up store, selling merch inspired by his upcoming album 'Views From The 6'.
Including t-shirts and baseball caps, the NYC street was overrun with Drake fans eager to get their hands on the new Drake goodies. Unfortunately, the rapper himself wasn't present at the opening.

As reported, 'Views From The 6' will be released on April 29 through Apple Music. The album is expected the feature new songs 'One Dance' and 'Pop Style', the latter features both Kanye West and Jay Z.
The new album will be exclusive to Apple Music for just one week, with Buzzfeed News confirming that the album will then be made available to stream and download everywhere from May 6.
This marks a stark contrast to Kanye West's 'The Life Of Pablo' which was tied to Tidal for nearly two months after its release in February.

Testing desktop antivirus products has always been tricky, attempting to simulate the real-world possibilities of all the type of malware and all the interesting and exciting ways it can be introduced onto a client system in a test lab. Today, I think, even well-crafted tests can at best offer some basic guidance for enterprises, rather than clear best-of-breed results.
Thus, the results posted in the 2011 annual Summary Report from AV-Comparative.org should be reviewed in that context. In fact, AV-Comparatives makes the clear point that enterprises need to evaluate products in-house and shop for the features and capabilities they deem most important for their organizations. I definitely recommend it as a resource if you are thinking about switching vendors or confirm the efficacy of your current vendor.
Kaspersky emerges as "Product of the year" based on the testing of products from 20 vendors , with "Advanced+" ratings across the board in all tests, which were conducted at different times throughout 2011. Among other tests, AV-Comparative included tests for detection rate without registering too many false positives, and their ability to detect new and unknown malware.
That's a good place to pause. AV product detection rates of known malware have always been high, so it's no surprise that the detection percentage of top performers in this test scored in the high 90s. The not so good news is that the top performers' detection of new or unknown malware runs at perhaps 60% tops in the AV-Comparative tests, taking false positives into account. Testing in this area is very difficult, and results of different tests, in different labs using different methodologies produce different results. The common thread is generally that AV products miss a lot of malware.
In the good old days, this was not so much of an issue. Six, perhaps even years ago, when Ed Skoudis of InGuardians conducted a group review of business-caliber AV products (I think, something like 15) for Information Security magazine, we made a conscious decision not to rate them on number of signatures. Not everyone agreed with this approach, but our feeling at that time was AV signature were something of a commodity. Everyone had about the same signatures, and the question of whether Vendor A got one six hours before Vendor B, this time, or Vendor C got one first the next time was more noise than substance.
So Ed focused on things like central management, ease of use, ease of updating, performance etc. Interestingly, we were curious about spyware, which was just beginning to emerge as a serious security concern at that time, prompting a fistful of small consumer-oriented vendors to grow their tools quickly into business-grade products. Of the products tested, only Pest Patrol (many of us remember the creepy bugs crawling across our screens when we navigated to their website) detected most of the samples thrown at them.
The rest were generally pathetic, with results like 20% or less. Traditional AV vendors scrambled to catch up to the new threats, but it took some time, and the spyware catchers thrived in the meantime. I recall talking to the CISO of a large pharmaceutical company who lamented having to put Webroot on his company's PCs in addition to Symantec because he had no choice at that time.
That marked a sea change, far more than most of us imagined. Malware was getting far more varied, more insidious and hard to detect, and, perhaps most important, was being delivered with criminal intent. Signature-based detection of known malware, while still necessary, has become less significant. Malware writers have gotten really clever at hiding and morphing their attacks, and the sheer number of unique samples, in the tens of millions now annually, is daunting if not overwhelming. AV vendors employ better heuristics, anomaly detection, host-based IPS and, increasingly, reputation-based (especially file-based reputation) detection methods in an effort to come close to keeping up. High detection percentages seem less impressive in the face of the hordes of malware.
Ironically, in a recent audio cast for SecureSMB online, I asked Ed Skoudis if there was really much difference among the established AV vendors as far as detection is concerned. He gave a bit of a sigh and said, no, not really, that they might leap-frog each other at times, but detection rates were not the bottom line in making your selection. So, the lesson is now, as it was then, to look for the features that are most important for your organization, and decide if they justify switching vendors. If one solution is cheaper, for example, or has more robust central management is it worth the time and effort required to rip and replace? Is one AV suite more desirable because of how it fits with the vendor's other security offerings deployed in my enterprise? Is performance (one of the tests conducted by AV-Comparative) on PCs an important consideration for your end users' productivity?
And, above all, bear in mind:
- You need other detection tools, including network-based monitoring analysis and IPS to work in concert with desktop AV.
- YOU WILL BE BREACHED. Have the tools and procedures in place to detect the bad stuff that is already on your network and respond accordingly.

Wow, there was a lot of news in your email. This week I don't have too much news to give you but I do have a wonderful story. It was written by my new investigator.
I, Joseph, heard about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the year 1995. This was my first encounter. It was in Accra, Ghana and the event was a television show in which a member of the church of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints was interviewed. The only thing I remembered about that show was a question the host asked the interviewee. The question was: "What are some of your principals you live by or believe in that you consider yourselves latter day saints?" Part of the interviewee's answer I vividly remember was, "When we canvass to win and bring souls to Jesus Christ we live by example. That is why we don't drink or smoke nor do we engage in things that are contrary to the teachings of Jesus Christ."
My second encounter with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints was in 2007 during a workshop which was conducted in the churches edifice located on Horton Avenue Bassa Community Monrovia. The work shop was conducted as a consequence of an agreement between the US Congress and the Liberian Legislative. This agreement was referred to as House Democracy Assistant program: where delegates from the US Congress will conduct lectures on preliminary affairs. At the end of the work shop I was moved by the thought to meet the then Elder in charge and his wife. Quite frankly I do not recall their names. They were very polite but time could not permit us to talk more. They gave me a copy of the Book of Mormon and extended me a welcome invitation, I did not honor it and I never met that lovely couple again.
For many years in the Offices of the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Republic of Liberia, where I was responsible for political and legislative affairs, my office mate Anthony who is the administrative assistant is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Whenever he mentioned his affiliation with the church with someone I would always raise my head and say innerly, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I never asked or encouraged a discussion about the church but let me empathetically state I always felt strange when I heard the churches name. I changed my residence from central Monrovia to the township of Caldwell in December 2010 AD. Caldwell is one of the oldest townships in Liberia, and has been existing since the 1820's when freemen of color from the United States of America founded Liberia. Because of the minuteness of the township, one would frequently and on a daily basis, see two young men always dressed in grey pants with white shirts with a necktie, backpack or hand grip, moving as if they are in search for something or someone.
Exactly opposite The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, in Caldwell, there is a social spot, called the Oldschool. This is a spot where mostly elderly men congregate after their day's work, for some to smoke cigarettes and have a drink whilst listening to the latest political or sports happenings. For others like me to merely participate in the discussions. At times whilst sitting at the Oldschool with the proprietor Mr. Andrick or with his wife Mammie, I would say how strange this church is to me. On one occasion Andrick told me he had previously affiliated with the church. I don't remember him saying anything about the church in the negative. I also did not ask him why he discontinued his affiliation with the church.
Chapter 2
Each time I sat at the Oldschool social spot and looked across the road I would see The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I would then experience a flash as lightning in my mind and spirit. But something peculiar happened I vividly recall, on Thursday July 10th 2014 at about 4:30 pm. As I sat with Andrick's wife Mammie on this day at the Oldschool, I looked up and saw two men dressed like their usual in their grey pants with white shirts and neckties, sitting on the steps of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. In my conscious mind I found myself walking towards two young men sitting on the church's steps, what was my motivation? Or how I rose from that chair to take the first step remains a mystery.
I greeted them, introduced myself and told them I only briefly wanted to talk to them. They both warmly greeted me and each introducing himself as Elder Gunnell and Elder Agyei respectively. Elder Gunnell asked me, what was it that I wanted to talk about.
Our investigator still has to continue his above story but I think it will be really fun to read what he writes next because a lot of miracles have happened with him and he is just an amazing investigator.
This week was the Liberian Independence Day was good. We had a lesson with Joseph and we had a great discussion. He reads everything we give him more than once and is half way through 1 Nephi. It rained most of the day but that did not stop everyone from celebrating.

What do you do on Memorial Day?
November 12, 2007
*Warning: This post is not funny nor is it tongue-in-cheek. I apologize for this brief lapse and promise to return soon with something silly or wacky.*
Sitting in synagogue on Saturday I was taken by a brief presentation made by a gentleman in commemoration of Veteran's day. He read the names of the known Jewish soldiers who had been killed in combat in Iraq and recited some relevant verses from the Hebrew Bible about those fallen in war. I appreciated the somber mood this man evoked and that he did so without being preachy about the merits or demerits of this particular war, or war in general for that matter.
The man's plea for the solemn observance of Veteran's Day made me think about the military, how it is imagined by us as citizens, and its role in politics. Anti-war politicians are burdened to prove they are not anti-military. I don't think it's unrealistic to assume that many Salad readers are against the war and have been for some time. Yet while we may be critical of specific military actions or policies, most of us would consider it taboo to openly criticize the soldiers burdened with the actual fighting (and rightly so, no?). As Americans we are taught to respect the kind of self-sacrifice necessary to be a soldier, yet with the military's professionalization in recent decades some of us may have come to see it as an undesireable job reserved for the poorly educated and those without any other opportunities.
So how should we commemorate Veteran's Day? Or should we? How do we balance our pro-peace or anti-war (or however else we conceive our political) convictions with the due owed to the people in the past and present who die or put themselves in danger willingly in our behalf? Any and all musings on the subject are welcome.

I've always been a big proponent of greater celebration of Veterans Day, in part because it is actually armistice day.
The US sort of ignores WWI because we weren't so involved, but to do so flies in the face of modern European history. It seems a little strange that so little importance is placed on World War I, when it was the beginning of the modern European nation.

Any comments on George W. Bush being in Crawford, Texas and not present at Arlington National Cemetery?
One in four veterans is homeless.
November 13, 2007 at 1:55 am
Good point. During the Kerry campaign it was emphasized by some that for all of Bush's talk of being a "war" President and his party's claims to being so military-friendly they had in fact slashed veterans' benefits. Maybe the right/the Republicans as the natural friends of the military is a canard. Maybe the image doesn't align with fact. Then again, maybe it was just campaign politicking by the Democrats and Bush simply continued a policy put in place by Clinton. Who knows? I appreciate both comments – they've given me food for thought. My school is participating in a program that sends care packages to soldiers so I've found a way to honor the holiday/assuage my guilt/do whatever it is that we do when we do these kinds of things.

Auto Loans
Airplane LoansWritten by Patricia Tunstall
Along with securing airplane loans, aircraft buyers should follow recommended procedures that help protect their considerable investments. Two absolutely crucial standard procedures include a "pre-buy" inspection, and a title search. Although some buyers are in a hurry and skip these essentials, horror stories abound about the consequences.
Importance of a Pre-Buy and Title Search
The pre-buy is an inspection of an airplane by at least one mechanic. Probably no one would buy a plane sight unseen, but some commit to a purchase hastily because they like something about the aircraft. There are "rules" to the pre-buy that can ensure you get an objective opinion. Most importantly, get the pre-buy done at a business that had nothing to do with the maintenance of the plane. The value of a second opinion in this situation can be critical.
Next, get the pre-buy done at a place away from the plane's home airport. Even flying to a nearby airport will help to remove the possibility of subjective opinions by a mechanic who knows the plane and/or the current owner. Your mechanic should not only inspect the plane, but the logbooks as well to make certain they contain original and accurate entries. This is not as extensive as an annual, so it can be completed in about four hours or less.
Owners have a tendency to skip the title search; after all, the present owner is a friend and says there has never been a lien against the plane. The title gives you legal ownership, however, so it is critical to make sure the title is clear. Any aircraft may have a lien against it even though the owner may be totally unaware of it. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) does not notify owners when liens are filed, so the only way to discover them is through title searches. The FAA does offer a CD with aircraft records, but these records are not complete.

I have been traveling a lot lately and thought I would take a minute to explain why I don't go through the airport security scanners. I always 'opt out' and am pulled to the side for the pat down instead. My main issue with these scanners is there is no long term cancer data. I fly… a lot, which already exposes me to radiation; I don't need any more exposure before I get on a plane! Since I already received a CT scan last year with my whole gestational trophoblastic disease fiasco, I feel like I don't need any extra radiation! I've been through chemo once (which actually has a side effect of cancer) and don't want to go through it again!
It enrages me that they would put these machines up in airports across the US without having any long term data. Not to mention that some of the not so friendly TSA agents feel the need to tell me that these machines are completely safe – just as safe as a chest x-ray (actually these machines have much less radiation than a chest x-ray, this agent's information was inaccurate). I don't need extra radiation every time I fly (that would be four times already this year and it's only February!), thank you. I feel like the agents try to scare me out of the pat down – like it's so intense I'm not going to be able to handle it. It's as if they are trying to embarrass me for refusing their airport scanner. Just be professional, pat me down, and let me get on with my life. I have thought about causing a scene when they are rude to me and screaming out that there's no long term data and they probably cause cancer and people shouldn't be forced to go through them – but I haven't so far, I've always maintained my composure.
Airport scanners use ionizing radiation to project x-ray beams onto your body. This ionizing radiation causes DNA damage, and its effects are cumulative, so it can lead to cancer eventually. There are also concerns about privacy that I won't go into it. These type of airport scanners are now banned in Europe [German protestors actually came to the airport naked to protest these machines =)] but continue to be used in the states. It seemed like they used to alternate between the normal metal detector and these airport scanners, but lately every time I have gone through security at the airport, they have only been using the newer airport scanners.
The public has been led to believe there is little radiation in these devices but there are some concerns on the validity of what we have been told and what the true radiation amount is. It is reported that these machines emit 0.02 microsieverts of radiation. To compare, a transcontinental flight at 30,000 feet exposes you to 20 microsieverts of radiation. If this is the true number or not is debatable at this time. There seems to be a conflict of interest involved with the airport scanners since the former Homeland Security chief who promotes these scanners is also a paid consultant for the companies that sell them. The data from the testing of these machines as well as the researchers names who worked on the studies has been keep secret. These studies have not been peer reviewed.
In the past, we were told that CT scans are just as safe as chest x-rays. It turns out a CT scan is equal to 500-1000 chest x-rays and the initial data was inaccurate. Whenever technology is new, it is wise to proceed with caution and not expose millions of travelers of all ages with all types of health conditions to such machines with no long term data.
Another issue is the type of radiation. You can't compare natural radiation to this type of man-made radiation that uses backscatter radiation. This radiation is absorbed into your skin and the tissue right below your skin only. This means that since it is not spread out throughout your entire body, there is a higher concentration in that one organ- your skin. Since the radiation concentrates on your skin, the actual radiation dose could be 20 times higher than originally estimated (because you can't average the radiation over your entire body). It appears that skin cancer may be a real risk of continued use of these devices.
Another scary thought is that these x-ray machines are only as accurate as the people maintaining them. There can definitely be operator error with technology and I don't want to be on the other side of the TSA's radiation mistakes!
As for reducing your radiation exposure when you fly – fly at night! The radiation is due to being in close proximity to the sun, so if you avoid flying when the sun is out you can avoid this radiation exposure.
Should we just wait around and see what health consequences will come about from using these airport scanners?! Or should we take action? Opt-out to protect your health! If more people opt-out, there is no way the TSA will be able to manually pat down everyone, and these machines will most likely get switched back to the old metal detectors.

The 2016 MacBook Pro will likely debut later this year. So, what's under the hood? And has that had an impact on the delays so far?
Yep, the MacBook Pro is getting old: on that pretty much everyone can agree. The design seems almost frozen in time at this point (Dell XPS instead, anyone?). A comment under one of my recent posts expresses the sentiment of more than a few MacBook Pro enthusiasts: "Apple needs to release updated MBP, and SOON!!…Really tired of waiting, about to do the move to a win 10 laptop."

We know about the 2016 MacBook Pro Externals: This isn't news. It's been widely reported that the new high-performance MacBook will be thinner, lighter, and have a touch panel that replaces the physical function keys (that run along the top of the keyboard). A Touch ID button is also expected (possibly where the power button is now on the 12-inch MacBook), according to Matte. And combination USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 ports too. "And obviously they can bring some combination of the improvements they brought for the 12-inch MacBook like the new butterfly keyboard switches," Matte said.
But what about the internals? AMD? More than any other MacBook, the MBP's silicon is the defining feature. "It seems clear that [Apple] was waiting for AMD's new Polaris 11-based GPU," Matte said. "In combination with other new components, that would allow them to make significantly thinner MacBook Pros." AMD's Polaris 11 graphics silicon is just arriving on the market. And it's the first 14-nanometer Polaris parts, making it more suitable for a thinner high-performance MacBook, as Matte points out. The key takeaway is that Apple can be true to its design ethos of thinner-is-better but still deliver a high-performance MacBook.

And Intel? Which Intel processor would the 2016 MBP use? "Kaby Lake seems like a fair possibility for the CPU," according to Matte. I had to revise my earlier prediction (made in an earlier post) based on this comment. The bottom line is that Kaby Lake (a so-called "shrink" of Skylake) isn't radically different than Skylake and therefore Intel should ramp up production on schedule. "So we said we already started shipping Kaby Lake to our customers and OEMs," Intel CEO Brian Krzanich said in July during the second quarter earnings conference call.
And note that Asus has been showing off a laptop-tablet hybrid with the processor. Hewlett-Packard too has listed the Kaby Lake Core i3-7100U processor in an upcoming laptop "convertible." Remember that Intel was originally slated to ship a 10-nanometer Canonlake after Skylake but pushed Canonlake back and introduced Kaby Lake as an interim product.
"Keep in mind that while the [Kaby Lake] CPU architecture should only be mildly improved, the graphics and entire surrounding chipset should be improved significantly," said Matte. That of course would suit Apple to a tee. We will undoubtedly know a lot more about Kaby Lake when Intel's developer forum gets under way this coming week.
Display: While not an internal component per se. "The displays can be updated to the latest IGZO panels with a wider P3 color gamut, and perhaps bringing higher resolutions," Matte said.
Why the MacBook Pro redesign delays?
One theory is that Apple has been holding back on the MBP overhaul because of the dedicated graphics (traditionally used in the larger 15.4-inch model). Until recently, smartphones have been getting priority on 14 nanometer silicon, forcing the graphics guys to wait. Essentially Apple and Qualcomm were taking up much of the 14 nanometer foundry capacity for smartphones. "The iPhone is delaying the Macs in other words," Matte said. But that's changed. AMD is now getting ready to go. "Nvidia and AMD are finally launching their new GPUs …it's been a very extended cycle. It's been painful for gamers and video editors," Matte said.
The bad news is, the iPhone and iPad will continue to get priority in the future. "The iPhone is the priority. It's the money maker. Anything bleeding edge on the component side is going to be mobile [iPhone] first."

text: Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are used in gas turbines to reduce creep, thermo-mechanical fatigue, and oxidation, or to allow for reduced air cooling. TBCs may fail due to fatigue. Structural optimization methods were applied to optimize the. TBC thickness in such a way as to increase the life of the TBC. The TBC thickness was varied for three cases: 1) minimizing TBC volume, 2) minimizing TBC maximum effective stress, and 3) minimizing compliance (minimizing the strain energy). The results from the optimization were used to estimate the relative change in TBC life via a strain energy based failure criterion and a Coffin-Manson-like expression. Minimization of volume had limited use due to limitations in the current implementation. Minimization of effective stress did not give any significant increase in life. The minimization of compliance increased the estimated TBC life at highly stressed regions.

JaME's Principle Objective
The prime objective of JaME is to spread the popularity of contemporary Japanese music to the people of Europe and America. JaME's principal tool for this task is of course our famous internet sites JmusicEuropa.com and JmusicAmerica.com.
Second Objective
Our second objective involves assisting Japanese artists to make connections and associations within Europe and America. We work to support artists and their managements as well as assisting them to export their music to a wider audience. We aim to form firm partnerships so that we may improve understandings of our mutual goals and hopes as well as concerns. JaME is fully aware of the differences and modes of operation that exist between different countries and continents, therefore we work hard to ensure that we respect and can accommodate the requirements of those we work with. Additionally, JaME is also active as a service which promotes and supports activities throughout Europe and America that are connected with Japanese music.
The Origin of JaME
JaME evolved from JrockFrance.com which began in 1999 alongside the Visual Kei fanzine "Prototype". In 2001, the website took over from the fanzine and began to expand, before merging with www.jpopfrance.com. Due to popularity and rapid growth, in 2003 a joint project involving contributors from France, Italy, Poland and Germany was started. The first incarnation of JmusicEuropa.com was born. The expanded association JaME (Japanese Music Entertainment) began in 2004. The purpose of JaME was to try and promote Japanese contemporary music through the development and creation of various media forms related to Japanese music. JaME also aimed to make links with Japanese artists to organise/co-organise concerts in Europe. This in turn naturally led to JaME providing connections between Japanese artists and European promoters/distributors to assist with concert organisation and/or sponsorship as well as working to distribute Japanese music throughout Europe.
JaME Today
Today JaME welcomes on average over 7,000 visitors a day, with 35,000 pages viewed. With regular announcements of big European events for example Mana appearing at France Expo or Dir en grey visiting Europe etc, the counter can often pass the 9,000 mark and beyond. JaMe presently is available in a dozen different languages produced by a team of over 80 members from many different countries worldwide. The multi-lingual aspect of JaME is a commitment of our belief in the importance of making information about Japanese music accessible to all.
In 2005, JaME launched JMusicAmerica which is a mirror site to the original JMusicEuropa but includes specific information and event announcements for the American continent.
Why confide in JaME?
Why do people rely on JaME? It is essential to understand that the JaME team is made up of volunteers with a strong passion for Japanese music. The core of JaME revolves around the ever expanding development of the Japanese music scene within Europe and America. From 1999 onwards the scene has been growing and inspiring people to learn about Japanese music, and in turn build a mentality of spreading Japanese music even further. It is this energy which powers the enthusiasm of those who work with and for JMusicEuropa.com and JMusicAmerica.com. JaME has passed all expectations of its original inception as a fan site to reach a high level of quality. JaME is not yet a company per se but we do however incorporate a series of pay for services including promotional services as well as a donation program to support our website and other activities. JaME has always been and will always be a tool at the disposal of the fans, associations, communities and artists to develop and expand. Personal projects about Japanese using JaME are welcomed and encouraged. The scope of JaME is only as limited as the imagination of those who use it.

How to Hand Paint Embossed Wallpaper
Almost everyone tends to use wallpapers in their homes, when traditional paint fails to do the job for them. This is because wallpapers can give your room and extra something and create an atmosphere and environment that normal wall paint just can't seem to do.
However, with wallpapers becoming more and more popular, people have started to invest in embossed or textured wallpaper, to give the room a more textured feel to it. The walls seem to pop out and the room feels a whole lot more alive. Now taking this one step further, and to differentiate themselves from others, some people tend to try and hand paint the embossments on their wallpapers, in order to create a feel and a wallpaper that just about no one has.
Check wallpaper
The first thing you want to do before you start to paint the walls is to make sure that the wallpaper has been attached to the wall correctly. You want to make sure there are no loose ends and that no nails or other such items are sticking out of the walls.
Cover gaps
The next step is to check for gaps in the wallpaper. When placing the wallpaper on the walls, you are bound to end up creating some gaps, so you need go ahead and caulk all the edges, to make sure that this isn't a problem later on.
The next step is to gather your supplies and prepare the room. Painting the wallpaper may prove to be a messy job, so it is best to get rid of all close by furniture and to make sure that you are covering the floors with old news papers or sheets of plastic. This will prevent any future paint related accidents that could potentially take place.
The next step is to go ahead and start to prime the walls. Try using a fast drying primer, so that you don't have to sit around and literally watch the primer dry before you can paint over it.
Once you have primed the wallpaper, check to see if there are any areas left that you can cover up, or that require more caulking.
Now you can go ahead and apply your paint to the wallpaper. Try and maintain a single approach to your stroke and make sure you make maximum contact with your brush.
Apply as many layers as you feel are important, but once the paint has dried go ahead and apply one final layer to really get the wallpaper to stand out.

Muscle Spasms in Arm
Madhura Pandit
Feb 6, 2019
Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and injury are the most common causes of muscle spasm in the arm. It can be treated with the help of medication and other treatment methods.
Muscle spasm is the painful, involuntary contraction of muscles. One of the major causes of muscle twitching is improper functioning of the motor-neurons. Contracture is the permanent muscle contraction that results from nerve damage. Secondly, muscle spasms can also be experienced if the released calcium ions do not get reabsorbed.
Muscle Injury
Any injury to muscle, due to accident or other causes, can result in muscle spasms. Sedentary or physically inactive lifestyle, where a person does not make extensive use of his muscles for a long period, can also lead to spasms.
Strenuous Exercise
Excess stress, exercise and fatigue can result in muscle spasms in arms and hands. Spasms are more likely to occur in people who are not used to daily strenuous exercise. Our body gives out signals when it is fatigued and one should note that it is time to take rest.
Sweating profusely due to any activity or exercise can lead to dehydration, consequently causing muscle twitching. Especially in higher temperature, there is loss of sodium, potassium, and calcium from the body due to excessive sweating. The body cannot recover immediately from this, therefore, one experiences muscle spasms.
Other Causes
Poor supply of oxygen
Electrolyte imbalance
Cerebral palsy
Nerve damage
Multiple sclerosis
Twist in arm during sport
Performing any unusual physical activity
The symptoms of muscle pain or spasms can vary according to the underlying cause. Sometimes, it is sudden and constant; whereas, in other times, it may even be intermittent. Sometimes, it lasts for few minutes, or sometimes, even for days and weeks.
The most common symptoms include swelling, pain, rigid tightness, and sudden muscle contractions in the affected area. If it is left untreated, you may experience constant muscle twitching or spasms in arm.
The root cause of muscle spasm has to be determined before going for any treatment. Advanced techniques like CT scan or MRI are used for diagnosing the condition. In serious cases of injury, the person may be required to undergo a surgery. Whereas, in mild cases, pain killers or injections are used.
Electrolyte imbalance is treated by taking fluids containing salts and electrolytes. Similarly, if the spasm or twitching is caused due to excess straining during exercise, then rest, massage, stretching, etc., can help in providing relief.
Apart from these traditional methods, alternative treatment methods like acupuncture or acupressure also help in treating muscle spasms. Natural muscle relaxants like chamomile and valerian help relieve muscle pain. If these natural methods do not give immediate relief, it is wise to consult the doctor as soon as possible and get immediate medical treatment.
► You should exercise only under the observation of a certified trainer.
► As dehydration is one of the most common cause of muscle spasms, you should make sure to follow means to prevent it. It can be avoided by drinking adequate amounts of water, especially in summer and after exercise.
► Secondly, coffee and sodas should be avoided as they tend to dehydrate the body.
► On the other hand, deep breathing can be helpful if spasms are caused due to poor supply of oxygen.
You should remember that muscle spasms in arm can be treated effectively using different treatment methods. If left untreated, it can turn into a permanent or serious condition. Therefore, you must not ignore it. You should consult your doctor and seek treatment as soon as possible. Take care!

I'd say "Happy Mass Murderer Day", but that would make me sound like that idiot who's presently married to Barbara Streisand.
Once again the self-styled "Progressives", whose only real progress has been in inventing new excuses for stone age bad behavior, are taking time out from their efforts to turn their respective countries into unspeakable hellholes to celebrate a holiday that they stole from a bunch of heathens.
They still call it May Day. I've started calling it Mass Murderer Day.
For a number of years I have mocked the present occupant of a stolen U.S. Senate seat Al Franken. Ayn Rand once said that it was morally acceptable mock evil as long as it was recognized as evil. So once again I present:
Stuart Smalley's Daily Affirmations for the Inner Communist
"I'm going to execute and expropriate today just for the heck of it because, gosh darn it, I deserve to have a good time."
"I am not a fraud, a Marxist yes, but not a fraud."
"I deserve all the mass adulation from the people I can get without feeling ashamed or being grandiose."
"I will express my feelings today. I will not hide them behind my mustache. My mustache is not a mask for my feelings, but rather a small patch of facial hair that covers my inadequacies."
"When I rob a bank for the cause, I will not be playing those parent tapes in my head: "You wield a revolver like a girl" . . . "Why can't you be more like Stalin?" . . . "Philosophy? What kind of major is that? It's useless!"
"Just because I execute Christians and counter-revolutionaries does not mean I'm an mass-murdering psychopath like my father."
"If I must violently put down a counter-revolution today, it is not because I am a bad person or that I am not worthy of love; it is because my people are a bunch of religion-addicted capitalist sons-of-bitches--and I am mean enough, ruthless enough, and dog gone it, people fear me."
