What would you do if you woke up one day and everything about yourself was different? You still had the same job and lived in the same place, but suddenly your skin was darker, your hair was longer, and anatomically you weren't the same.
The developers of the popular video game Rust recently brought that theory to life with a game update that randomly assigned gender and race attributes to players' avatars. And it didn't go over well with the game's players.
"You've made me into a girl," one Rust player tweeted. "Not happy."
Another tweeted this: https://twitter.com/ItsDadMan/status/719836086462242817?ref_src=twsrc^tfw
Users complained they were being forced to identify with the company's "feminist ideals," and one user called the new feature "the dumbest thing" the game developers have ever done.
Originally, every avatar in Rust would appear as a "white bald guy," but the game's developers were concerned about the rise in over-customization in the video game world. Now, instead of having each player choose how their own avatar would appear on screen, Rust permanently assigns an avatar's gender and race to a player.
Rust's lead developer Garry Newman addressed the negative response in a Guardian post, saying that "Rust is not a game about identity. The objective in Rust is to survive."
The bulk of complaints originated from regions with overwhelmingly white populations, such as Russia, Newman observed.
"Inevitably, there are people who like it and people who don't," wrote Newman. "Some players have praised what we're doing. Like us, they think that who you are in the game, your race and gender, makes no difference to the actual gameplay — and are happy to have the diversity. Others aren't so positive. They feel that playing a gender or race that doesn't match their own is detrimental to their enjoyment."
Some of the more vitriolic responses were specifically about gender. "Why won't you give the player base an option to choose their gender?" asked one disgruntled customer. "I just want to play the game and have a connection to the character like most other games I play. Not have some political movement shoved down my throat because you make the connection we can't choose our gender in reality so let's make it like that in game too."
While the game has received some praise for being more inclusive, some have criticized the developers' choice to stick to the gender binary of male and female, which excludes transpeople. Newman said he understands this frustration, but argued that gender identity wasn't the primary focus. "We're assigning gender randomly in game — not in real life."
The game itself is in a stage of development known as "early-access," meaning that it's not fully developed yet, but users can still play the game. Rust's developers continue to update the game every week, and have been doing so since it first debuted in 2013. Since its release, Rust has sold 3.5 million copies, and roughly half a million people play it every week.
The developers' decision to choose gender and race for players attempts to mimic how individuals move through society. No one gets to choose their social class, economic status, race, or gender, but everyone has to survive and get food, shelter, and water, just as players must do in Rust.
The backlash is indicative of the deep rifts in the tech and gaming industries. Women, people of color, and members of the LGBT community have all suffered discrimination in the gaming world.
Rust is not the first video game to spark controversy over adding diversity. Earlier this month, game developer Beamdog released an expansion for Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition that included a transgendered character and three-dimensional female roles. The new expansion prompted dozens of angry forum posts and negative game reviews from customers who didn't agree with the change.
Women make up 44 percent of total game players and purchase 41 percent of all video games.
A growing body of research is attempting to understand the impact of gaming avatars on human psychology. Kelsey Schmitz, a researcher at the University of Ottawa, told the CBC that males and females react differently to video game avatars while conducting research for her PhD. Schmitz discovered that males often selected avatar gender based on strategy, and sometimes aesthetics. Meanwhile, female gamers were more willing to play as avatars who looked nothing like them, and this correlation was more pronounced in gaming environments far removed from everyday reality.
Rust's move towards diverse avatars is particularly noticeable in the gaming world, which has been the subject of repeated criticisms concerning an overall lack of gender and racial sensitivity. In 2014, game developer Ubisoft announced it would not add female characters to Assassin's Creed Unity, after it claimed that creating female characters would require "double the work". Studies have suggested there might be a link between gaming habits and racist tendencies, though this has been disputed. Another example includes the time feminist video game critic Anita Sarkessian received death and rape threats as part of the Gamergate controversy.

Tremendous strain is put on both partners during Bipolar Disorder relationships!
This is even more so when you go into a relationship unaware that the love of your life stopped using their medication years before.
Mood swings tend to determine the behavior of someone with bipolar…
When episodes of intense mania are experienced, behavior becomes more destructive toward themselves and those around them. They become reckless and don't think about the consequences of their actions.
Funnily enough, during these manic episodes, they seem to get some reasoning back and may even be more likely to accept that their behavior is questionable.
Depressive episodes tend to make people feel more "needy", and their thinking becomes totally internalized; no-one but themselves is of any importance.
This behavior falls on opposite sides of the equation; when these episodes are of a milder nature, the problems experienced within your relationship will be nothing more than any difficulties anyone else may experience within a relationship.
If these intense manic and depressive episodes occur on a regular basis, the strain it places on the relationship is huge.
Why is it that people react so differently to mania and depression?
Even the manner in which your friends and family relate to mania and depression can change the whole dynamic of your relationship…
When your loved one is depressed, you get told: "That's awful. Is everything alright with her? Is she stressed at work? Is she on medication? Make sure she takes it easy for a few days".
When your loved one is manic, that very person says: "She is making a fool of you and herself. Get rid of her, she is destroying your life. She is a bad influence on you".
It is perfectly fine to be depressed and stay in bed for days on end, but don't get manic and run around like a headless chicken.
People don't seem to believe that there may be a reason why someone would become manic.
This difference in attitude just demonstrates the lack of knowledge that people have about this disorder.
To ensure that you have a relatively "normal" relationship with someone diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, ensure that they take their medication as directed.
Create a daily routine which incorporates your partner taking their medication.
I resorted to waking up before my partner and then ensured that she took her medication at the same time every morning. I was also around in the evening to ensure that she took her medication then.
It sounds frivolous, but it makes such a difference when you have this type of routine.
It became such a normal part of our lives.
I actually felt wonderful every morning when she took her medication without me having to remind her.
Don't believe that someone is going to take their medication because a doctor says it is necessary.
This is especially true when the person may be manic and feeling on top of the world.
One of the major reasons that people don't like using their medication for a protracted period of time are the side effects, especially those associated with Lithium.
A pharmacist actually told us that he hates Lithium because "your kidneys are going to get a hiding". He also said that unfortunately, Lithium is a necessary evil for most bipolar sufferers.
Don't allow your partners fear of side effects prevent her from taking medication. If the side effects continue, go and see your doctor.
Also, don't think that you or your partner can get through this without professional help.
See a psychiatrist, and then a psychologist. A psychiatrist will make the initial diagnosis, and will check that the dosages of the various medications are correct, but you need a psychologist to help you through the emotional ups and downs that you will experience.
You as the partner of someone with Bipolar Disorder must make an effort to go along to a few sessions with your partner to see a psychologist; it will open your eyes to the intricacies of this disorder.
There is a lot of help available to Bipolar Disorder sufferers and supporters. USE IT. Join support groups and make sure you both see your doctors on a regular basis.
One of the most important aspects of Bipolar that a psychologist will help you with is determining some of the triggers for either a manic or depressive episode.
If you know what some of these triggers are, you can prevent an episode from becoming too advanced.
You need to become totally involved in the day-to-day struggle of Bipolar Disorder.
Your relationship depends on it…

After sweeping to power in 1993 with promises of expanded social programs, the federal Liberals did a dramatic turnaround in office, deeply slashing social spending in the name of reducing the deficit.
By the late 1990s, the deficit was gone and Finance Minister Paul Martin was the toast of Bay St.
But the drastic cuts he introduced in his 1995 budget ushered in an austerity agenda of underfunded social programs and increased inequality that continues to this day.
Back then, there were few in Ottawa inner circles resisting Martin's deep spending cuts, but one strong dissenting voice came from Douglas Peters, who died last week at the age of 86.
Chief economist and senior vice-president of the TD Bank, Peters entered politics in 1993 and ended up in cabinet as Minister of Financial Institutions, sometimes called the "junior finance minister."
Despite his Bay St. pedigree and a PhD in finance from University of Pennsylvania, Peters rejected the business world's obsession with deficits and smaller government.
From his seat next to Martin at top-level budget meetings, the soft-spoken, articulate Peters repeatedly challenged the deficit hysteria that gripped the finance department and increasingly controlled government policy. To Peters, the key problem was unemployment -- which hovered above 10 per cent -- not the deficit.
Indeed, the way to solve the deficit problem was to reduce unemployment, Peters argued. As he once told a parliamentary committee: "Unemployed people pay less tax. That is one of the most certain laws of all economics. It should be inscribed on plaques and hung in the offices of prime ministers and premiers across the country."
In his early days, Doug Peters certainly didn't appear to be someone headed for a seat at the cabinet table. After growing up in Brandon, Man., during the Depression, he flunked out of the pre-meds course at University of Manitoba, with the dean describing him as "not university calibre."
Peters later proved himself at the University of Pennsylvania's prestigious Wharton School of Finance and Commerce, where he got caught up in the heated debates about economic policy.
He became a committed Keynesian, convinced that government had a role to play in ensuring full employment -- a view that put him offside with the new business orthodoxy calling for smaller government.
It also made him an iconoclast on Bay St., when he became chief economist at the TD Bank. The bank gave Peters a surprisingly long leash, allowing him to publicly criticize the cutbacks and restraint of Brian Mulroney's Tory government.
He even took a swipe at the powerful former finance minister Michael Wilson, suggesting that the "Bennett buggies" of the Depression had been replaced with "Wilson wagons" pulled by "unemployed auto workers."
Peters was wooed by the Liberals to run in their 1993 campaign, which attacked Mulroney era austerity and called for a national child-care program.
But if Peters thought the bank was a business-oriented place, he wasn't prepared for how little interest the new Liberal government seemed to have in unemployment or social needs.
As finance minister, Paul Martin was almost single-mindedly focused on the deficit, vowing to tame it "come hell or high water."
Deficit hawks insisted government spending had to be slashed or the financial markets would punish Canada for its big deficits. But Peters, who had long Bay St. experience dealing with financial markets, insisted tackling unemployment was the way to reduce the deficit.
He got support from an unlikely source -- a Goldman Sachs report in September 1994 identifying unemployment, rather than excessive government spending, as Canada's key problem, and noting that once full employment was achieved, "the budget gap of Canada vanishes."
But the business community had its mind set on smaller government, and Peters soon found himself marginalized as the cry for spending cuts rolled through Ottawa, culminating in Martin's 1995 budget, which cut government spending levels by about one-third.
When the deficit disappeared a few years later, the Liberals and later the Conservatives used the resulting surpluses mostly to deliver tax cuts, particularly to corporations and high-income earners, leaving Canada with a weakened social safety net and rising inequality.
Perhaps Doug Peters' voice was simply too soft and too rational to be heard above the chorus of throaty business demands calling for smaller government. But his passing reminds us that there was once a high-level champion for a course of action that would have set Canada on a very different path. That he was ignored is our loss as a country.
Linda McQuaig is a journalist and author. Her book Shooting the Hippo: Death by Deficit and Other Canadian Myths was among the books selected by the Literary Review of Canada as the "25 most influential Canadian books of the past 25 years."

Our Partners
Regional Partners
The central position of Brussels on the axis of the canal going from Antwerp to Charleroi makes it essential for collaboration with the two other Regions with regard to the optimisation of the performance of this inland waterway, in order to promote modal transfer towards the waterway.
Moreover, as the transport and logistics problems largely exceed the institutional borders of the Region and its 19 municipalities, a dialogue with the other Regions and the Federal Government is essential in order to develop coherent policies for optimising surface transport of goods on the metropolitan territory by encouraging modal transfer towards the railways and waterway.
A concrete example of a joint project in a promising sector is that of the Watertruck project seeking the development and the optimisation of transport of goods on the small-gauge inland waterways by means of a new shipping concept coupling the shipping of non-motorized barges (in particular for the evacuation of building-site mud and earth).
At another level, a stronger co-operation agreement between the Ports of Brussels and Antwerp was signed in 2010 in order to maximise the container traffic between the two ports.
European Partners
Within ST4W, the Port of Brussels is carrying out a pilot project to test and deploy the IT tools. This project will involve first of all using the existing infrastructure, namely the Belgian and Brussels water network, for the transport of palletised building materials in large quantities (<900 pallets or <1 000 tonnes palletised) from a production area to Brussels and then redistributing these goods from the Brussels Urban Transhipment Centres (CTU) located respectively in the Basin Vergote (CTU North) and the Bassin Biestebroeck (CTU South). The second objective of this project is to carry out real-time monitoring of the flow of goods from the producer to the end customer with the aim of reducing the number of kilometres travelled in pre- and post-transport as much as possible.
The Region and the Port work together to reinforce the role of the Port of Brussels as a node within the multimodal European RTE-T networks.
For this reason, the Port has played a leading role in the transnational "Connecting Citizen Ports 21 (CCP21)" co-operative project, of which the 2011-2015 partnership with the Ports of Lille, the Port of Paris, the Port of Liège, the Province of Utrecht, the Port of Switzerland and the Basel-Mulhouse-Weil Rhein Ports has enabled connectivity and durable transport to be promoted by a better logistical organisation of freight and a more durable space development of the inner ports.
Moreover the Port generally follows the initiatives and regulations which are taken at the European level, among others in order to support the development of waterway transport in the context of an integrated multimodal vision.
International Partners
The Port's European and international integration is based in particular on the active role which it occupies within sectoral associations such as the European Federation of Inland Ports (EFIP), the International Association of Cities and Ports (IACP), the Permanent International Association of the Congresses of Navigation (PIACN), etc., as well as by more specific actions such as participation in international events or co-operation agreements.

ROLL up! Roll up! A popular Co Durham venue has been giving visitors a chance to try their hand at circus skills and tricks as part of its summer events programme.
Ushaw, just outside Durham City, hosted two Circurama workshops for adventurous souls wanting to learn juggling, uni-cycling, plate-spinning, and much more.
On hand to dispense the magic was children's entertainer, Marty Bloomfield, who regularly takes his performance skills to parties, schools and corporate events.
After spending twenty years as a postman, Marty realised that his real passion was in entertaining, and opened a shop, Airotherapy, in Whitburn, on Wearside, "selling his hobby".
He also began holding Circus Skills workshops in the hall beside the shop, and in 2010 they proved so popular that he closed the shop to concentrate on his Circurama business.
David Ellwood, Education Officer at Ushaw, said: "This is the first time we've had this activity in our summer diary, and has proved very popular. We'll definitely be making it a regular fixture in the future."
The Rodgers family – mum Helen, dad Lindsay, and daughter Ailsa, from Belmont – came along together to try their hand at the circus tricks.
Lindsay said: "We thought the Circurama would be a fun thing to do as a family, during the holidays, and we also came to the Meccano workshop. We've really enjoyed both of them."
There are still plenty of activities to join in with this summer at Ushaw. For more details, check the website at: www.ushaw.org

The American investment bank said it had reserved $3.83bn for compensation in the third quarter which, or 43pc of its revenues. The remuneration pot, which equates to $370,000 for each member of staff for nine months work, is about 21pc smaller than it was this time last year but its size will still be controversial in light of Wednesday's spending review.
The bank said pay packets would be smaller because profits look set to be down. Net income at Goldman for the quarter was $1.9bn, off from $3bn in the same period last year. Goldman said revenues fell by 28pc to $8.9bn in the period because of a drop in its trading and principal investments division. Trading revenues were also down by 36pc to $5.6bn. However, the bank's investment banking division generated strong results with revenues up 24pc to $1.1bn.
Lloyd Blankfein, chief executive, said that economic conditions continued to be "challenging" but said he was pleased with the bank's "solid" performance.
Intense political and punlic pressure saw Goldman last year cut the compensation-to-revenue ratio to 35.8pc, lower than the level revaled in Tuesday's results. However insiders said the pay cut made Goldman vulnerable to staff being poached. In August the bank awarded a mid-term windfall of shares for top bankers in an effort to reassure them ahead of this year's bonus season.
Separately, Bank of America (BoA) announced a net loss of $7.3bn (£4.64bn) for the third-quarter. The loss, which was three and a half times bigger that the $2.2bn loss reported during the same period last year, was incurred as a result of a $10bn one-off write down to reflect the lower value of its credit card business.
The bank, which had already announced the write-down, said the division would be effected by new regulations that will curb charges and hit profits.
Analysts said that otherwise the results were better than expected. Excluding the charge, BoA reported net income of $3.1bn, or 27 cents per share. The results were driven by smaller credit costs.

Home Safety
Your home may have bars on windows and cutting edge alarm system, in order to keep unwanted guests out, but what of those hazards that lurk within the house itself? Invest some money, and obtain smoke, radon and carbon-monoxide detectors. All three won't cost you more than 100$, but will greatly increase the overall safety. Radon and carbon-monoxide are especially hazardous and menacing, for those gasses are odourless, and you won't be able to notice its presence without detectors. Don't be fooled, exposing to those gasses will result in fatal outcome, so make haste for this decision to be your first.
It's time to go green
No, it isn't necessary to install solar panels, although you can, if your budget allows you. You need to use common sense, and to save energy whenever it is possible. This means to replace light bulbs with energy-efficient ones, to turn off the light as soon you don't need it, and of course, to save water. It may seem to you as trivial matter, but remember that each kilowatt less you use, is one tree more in this polluted world, for it is less energy to produce. You may take it further, and to install thermostat with timer. In that way you can set your heating system to go on minimal temperature during the night, and it can save you a lot of money as well as energy. During the night, it is uncomfortable to sleep in a heated room, as well as it is energy-wasting.
Rather than completely renewing the whole bathroom, you can choose to simply re-decorate it. A vintage-looking sink paired with matching dresser will refresh the overall impression of your bathroom. New mirror will open up your space a lot, and this is especially useful if you lack space. On the other hand, if you wish to do something bigger, you can hire bathroom renovations companies anywhere in the world, from Sydney to New York. In this way you will get completely new feeling about your bathroom and it is the most transparent improvement. Although you may have the requiring skills, it would be wise to hire a professional.
So, with everything said taken into consideration, first thing you need is to make a decision. You must promise to yourself that there will be no more excuses, and start on fulfilling your plans and dreams. Trust me, you will feel great satisfaction upon achieving your goals, and simply put, you will be proud on which you have done.

There is another major job opening in fashion. Kering, the French luxury goods conglomerate, announced on Friday that the designer Alexander Wang was leaving the helm of Balenciaga after less than three years by "joint decision."
Mr. Wang will concentrate on his namesake brand, based in New York, which he maintained during his time as creative director at Balenciaga. A search has begun for his successor in France.
No specific reason was given for the split, though according to a person close to the negotiations who spoke on the condition of anonymity, Mr. Wang is about to announce a minority investment in his own brand.
Mr. Wang was named to the top design post in 2012 after Nicolas Ghesquière, who had revitalized the brand since taking over in 1997, left over creative differences with Kering's management.
The appointment surprised the fashion world, as Mr. Wang, then 28, was known for the hip, downtown aesthetic embodied by his own brand, as opposed to a couture sensibility.
Balenciaga is considered one of Kering's "emerging luxury brands," along with Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen, Christopher Kane and others. Analysts estimate that Balenciaga alone has annual revenue of 350 million euros ($387 million), which would represent less than 5 percent of Kering's overall luxury revenue, based on results released this week.
Reports that Mr. Wang was about to leave the 96-year-old brand surfaced this week in Women's Wear Daily.
In a statement on Friday, Isabelle Guichot, chief executive of Balenciaga, said: "We are all at Balenciaga extremely grateful to Alexander for his important contribution to the style and history of this iconic house. The dynamic growth of the brand over the last years bears testimony to his successful creative work."
According to Thomas Chauvet, an analyst covering luxury goods at Citi Investment Research, the growth at Balenciaga was slower than that of similar smaller brands, and that may have contributed to Kering's decision to make a change.
Still, Mr. Chauvet said, "it is a shame Alexander Wang is being replaced, because it will take another 12 months to get a new creative direction and products in place."
Mr. Wang's appointment was counter to industry wisdom about the demands of maintaining one's own brand while overseeing another. When John Galliano was fired from Dior in 2011 over anti-Semitic remarks, he attributed his behavior to the pressure of being responsible for two brands (his own as well as Dior).
After Mr. Wang's appointment, however, many young designers took on dual roles, including Jonathan Anderson at Loewe, Zac Posen at Brooks Brothers and Jeremy Scott at Moschino.
Mr. Wang's 10 collections for Balenciaga met with a generally positive reaction, though no single look or accessory proved a blockbuster. "Wang has done an O.K. job, but not the super job Kering was hoping for," said Luca Solca, head of luxury goods research at Exane BNP Paribas.
The end of the relationship may revive the case for having a designer who can devote creative capital to a single house.
"Kering needs a designer that can really propel it to a higher level," Mr. Solca said. "It should be next in line to blossom into a bigger business."
Mr. Wang's last show for Balenciaga will be on Oct. 2 in Paris.

Placentophagy: What You Should Know About Eating Placenta
Placentophagy, also known as placentophagia, is a term that has originated from the union of the words "placenta" and the Greek terminology for "to eat". It refers to an act wherein mammals eat the placenta after childbirth. Read on to understand more about placentophagy.
What Is Placentophagy?
The placenta is associated with easing birth stress as it contains small amounts of oxytocin. It also helps in the contraction of the muscles surrounding the mammary cells in order to eject milk. Most of the placental mammals are known to participate in this act of eating the placenta after childbirth.
However, of late, human placentophagy has gained ample popularity and history has been studied to find its roots and the reason behind it. It is identified as the process of ingesting a human placenta postpartum by any person (either in the original raw form or in a cooked/dried form).
Although modern occurrences of this act are rare, there have been several historical occurrences reported of the same. It is believed that there are several health benefits linked to the consumption of the placenta.
Few have associated human placentophagy as a treatment for fatigue and postpartum depression. It also possesses ample nutritional value.
What Is Placenta And What Does It Do?
The placenta plays a crucial role in pregnancy. It is an organ that takes form and shape inside the uterus of a pregnant woman. Oxygen and nutrients to the growing baby are provided through the placenta. It also removes wastes from the baby's body. The placenta is attached to the wall of the uterus and the foetus's umbilical cord arises from this organ.
During a vaginal delivery, the placenta is delivered via the vagina, once your baby comes out. In case of C-section birth, the placenta is removed by your doctor after the baby has been taken out. All fragments of the placenta should be removed after childbirth to prevent infection and excessive bleeding.
Should You Eat Placenta? Does It Help?
Research shows that the placenta contains various nutrients. It is rich in fibre, protein and potassium. It is also loaded with hormones like testosterone and estradiol.
Several mothers who had consumed the placenta reported that they noticed improved postnatal health. Mothers believe that eating the placenta would improve lactation along with improved mood and better energy levels.
A research was conducted wherein several healthy, pregnant ladies voluntarily decided to consume their placenta post childbirth. Researchers met these women from the 36th week of their pregnancy up until the third week post delivery. During each meeting, saliva samples were collected for hormone analysis.
Although, it was earlier believed that consumption of one's placenta can boost energy levels and the overall mood, research data revealed that even after the consumption of the placenta pills, there was no such impact on the fatigue or postpartum depression levels.
The final words according to midwives on the consumption of the placenta are that it does not matter much as long as one consumes it safely.
How Do People Consume Placenta?
The placenta is mostly prepared for consumption by making it into a pill. There are plenty of companies who actually do it for you. Placental cuisine is slowly turning into a trend these days - encapsulation being one of them.
The other ways of eating the placenta are as follows:
• Eat it raw
• Make it into a smoothie
• Cook the placenta yourself
• Add it to your favourite dishes
Several cookbooks are available these days that guide you regarding the storage and preparation techniques for creating placenta-based meals.
Most of the recent intakes of the placenta by contemporary consumers are in the form of capsules. The placenta undergoes a steaming process followed by it being dehydrated and then placed in gelatin capsules.
Are There Any Negative Effects?
It needs to be understood that there are lots of differences between humans and other mammals. The reproductive physiology of other mammals is quite different from that of human beings. It needs to be understood that the placenta can be loaded with bacteria.
A report that came out in one of the issue's of CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report had to say this about the consumption of the placenta post childbirth.
The placenta of a lady post delivery was handed over to a company to form pills using the dehydrated placenta. The lady consumed two of these capsules daily. After a few days, the baby began to show signs of breathing difficulties. When tested, the baby was found to have a group B Streptococcus agalactiae bacterial infection.
The mother's placenta pills were also found to have the same bacteria. It was finally concluded that the consumption of the pills increased this specific kind of bacteria in the mother who then had passed it on to the baby.
Other researchers have also not agreed to the belief of placenta consumption enhancing the mood or lactation. Apart from infection, indulging in the act of placentophagy could actually lead to blood clots due to oestrogen hormones and accumulation of toxins from the environment.
Moreover, companies who process the placenta for consumption might lack precautionary measures when it comes to preventing infections and contaminants.
We have heard about the ample benefits that placenta has for your growing baby in the uterus. However, post birth, if you do wish to attain the nutrients present in the placenta, you can choose to do so. However, it is advised that you understand the pros and cons of doing so before indulging in the act of placentophagy.

Relatives protest visit by North Korea general blamed for warship sinking
Angry relatives of sailors killed in the 2010 sinking of a South Korean warship protested Saturday against the impending visit to the Winter Olympics of a North Korean general blamed for the attack.
Relatives of the 46 killed on the Cheonan corvette urged Seoul to scrap the visit by Kim Yong Chol who will head an eight-member delegation at the Games' closing ceremony Sunday.
US President Donald Trump's eldest daughter and key adviser Ivanka will also attend the event, creating protocol headaches for Seoul officials.
Kim is widely blamed for a spate of attacks against the South including the torpedoing nearly eight years ago of the corvette. He has also been linked to the shelling of the South's Yeonpyeong island the same year, which killed four people.
"Execute Kim Yong Chol," chanted a group of some 30 relatives of the Cheonan victims at a rally in a Seoul city centre square.
"North Korea accept the responsibility for the atrocity and apologise," they shouted, waving banners and portraits of Kim marked with a red cross.
The conservative opposition Liberty Korea Party also repeated its objection to Kim's visit, vowing to hold a massive protest on Monday.
"We can never allow a visit by a Hitler-like war criminal, the main culprit of the attack against the Cheonan," party leader Hong Joon-Pyo wrote on his Facebook account.
Thousands of demonstrators staging their weekly protest for the release of jailed former president Park Geun-Hye also threw their weight behind the campaign against the controversial visit, calling for the general's arrest and execution.
Unification ministry spokesman Baek Tae-hyun has said the government was aware of widespread misgivings about the visit, but accepted it as the "chances for improving inter-Korean ties and a peace settlement might be improved".
Seoul blames the North for the sinking of the Cheonan — widely believed in the South to have been ordered by Kim Yong Chol — although Pyongyang denies responsibility.
At the time he was head of the North's Reconnaissance General Bureau, which is responsible for espionage and sabotage activities against the South.
Baek said the sinking of the Cheonan was "certainly the North's work" but it was difficult to pinpoint who was directly responsible.
The North's high-level delegation led by Kim will include foreign ministry officials who handle relations with the US and the nuclear issue, raising hopes that Pyongyang is willing to discuss the nuclear issue during this visit, Yonhap news agency said.
"We're, therefore, looking forward to a message from the North," a government official was quoted as saying.
South Korean President Moon Jae-in is likely to meet the delegation but the White House ruled out the possibility of talks between Kim and US representatives.
Instead, Washington warned Pyongyang of "maximum pressure" towards denuclearisation on Saturday, hours after hitting the defiant North with what President Trump said were the "heaviest sanctions ever".
The general's visit comes shortly after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un expressed "great satisfaction" over a visit to the Olympics opening ceremony by a high level delegation which included his sister Kim Yo Jong.

Another half term has been and gone and what fun we have had!
The theme has been festivals and celebrations and we have been investigating various cultures and customs.
We began by discussing Chinese New Year with the children. The home corner was reinvented as a Chinese restaurant and during snack one day that week, the children had the opportunity to eat some Prawn Crackers. They were delicious!
We continued our theme by celebrating Holi with the children. We had a great time making our pictures using bright colours and water pistols! It was great fun and luckily the weather was kind to us, enabling us to use the outdoors so we could squirt to our hearts content.
Here is an example of some of the work the children produced.
The following week it was a time to think about our Mummies and what they do for us. We talked about making something nice for them. The children put so much thought into their creations and we hope that you enjoyed a lovely cup of tea!
All of the cards were unique and individual. "My Mummy gives me cuddles" shared one child. "My Mummy gives me food" shared another. UNCRC article:- Children have the right to live with someone who cares about them.
Next we recognised St.Patrick's day with the children. They had the chance to make a flag each to take home:
And so came International Day Of Happiness. We decided it would be nice to ask the children to think about how they could make others happy. We had some lovely thoughts, ranging from 'Being nice to siblings' to 'helping Mummy'. It was lovely to be celebrating these with the children.
Finally came our last week. We talked about Easter and the significance of it. The children each had an opportunity to make a special Easter hat.
Here they all are on our display board.
We had Janna come in and talk to both groups about Easter and an Easter surprise. It was lovely to see them so engaged. One child said "Jesus died and rose again"
Both groups had the chance to make some yummy Easter nests. A huge Thank You to all involved, volunteering their time to help the children and also to anyone who has volunteered this half term, whether that be doing computers, gardening, reading, cooking with the children or helping with the general day to day running of Pre-School. Your help is invaluable.
Some of the Friday children had the pleasure of a trip to the Sunrise Care home for the elderly. The other group will have their turn after the Easter break. This proved to be a hugely beneficial experience for both our little poppets and also the residents. The children played, were read to, did crafts and chatted to the residents. A hugely successful time. We were so proud of the children.
Wishing you all a very happy break and we look forward to starting a brand new term on Tuesday 17th April.

Park Record articles regarding Service Area 6
Here are a few links to the Park Record with information pertaining to the meeting.
Budget Balancing Options Debated
Tom Clyde wrote an interested editorial Finding Service Area 6
The budget public hearing is set for 6 pm at the Sheldon Richins Building on Wednesday, December 12th.
The Truth in Taxation hearing is set for 6 pm at the County Courthouse Council Chambers in Coalville on Wednesday, December 19th.

This message was from Kevin Callahan, Public Works Director:
Attached is a notice for a budget public hearing on the 2013 County budget to be held at 6 PM on Wednesday December 12 at the Sheldon Richins Services Building on Ute Boulevard in the Kimball Junction area. Because of the proposed tax increases for Service Area # 6 and the Municipal Fund have been frozen , the County Council is considering budget options for next year that could result in a serious deterioration in the level of service that the County could provide for winter road maintenance. If the Council adopts a budget that requires us to reduce our road plowing staff by two workers, it could mean that either we must devote more time to opening up major roads and bus routes while deferring when we get to plowing in all neighborhoods or concentrating on the main roads and higher elevation neighborhoods first .Under the second choice we may not get to plowing lower elevation neighborhoods until late in the day after a storm. On the other hand, if the Council adopts a budget with the tax increase we would not experience a deterioration in winter maintenance services. Please see the attached summary of the issue. If you have questions on this matter, please feel free to call me at 435.336.3978.

He was a very close and acute Reasoner, Sparing of Words, not through want of them, but from an Aversion to Redundancy, as necessarily begetting a Confusion of Ideas. ... Indefatigable in his Search after Knowledge, when Difficulties came in his Way, he assailed them Day and night till they fell before his persevering Spirit. The Study in which he took most delight and chiefly excelled was Mathematics;William Shanks was the calculator who produced the famous value of π to 707 places in 1853-1857, unfortunately discovered to be erroneous from the 528th place in 1945. Peter Ransom's letter says he has been told that Shanks also is buried in this church, but he has not been able to find him. However, Roger Webster gave me the name Houghton le Willows and said it was south of Durham. I can't find this in my atlas, but there are a Houghton-le-Side and a Houghton Bank in Co. Durham about 13 miles S of Durham.

Property tax appraisals here in Austin came through a few weeks ago and the increases were intense. We personally know people who had annual property tax increases of $8000. On top of what they were already paying.
The front page of the Austin American Statesman's above-the-fold article contains the following quote:
"Its not because I don't like paying taxes", said Gardner, who attended both [tax complaint] meetings. "I have voted for every park, every library, all the school improvements, for light rail, for anything that will make this city better. But now I can't afford to live here any more."
Apparently said without the slightest awareness of irony.

I need to get the data from old windows 95 A: drive 3 1/2 floppy to my windows XP but as yet not getting on well. Have been told I need a converter, does anyone know a free version or how much will it cost?
Are you trying to read a 3 1/2" floppy disk? If so, first verify if the disk is double density (DD) or high density (HD). Some floppy drives may not be able to read the DD type, which is 720KB capacity.
Do you have an internal floppy drive in a computer with a working version of Windows on it? If so, post the model of that computer and the computer you wish to get the data to.
I had an ollivete computer new with win 95 then there was a problem with the electrics in our street and it went wrong and the floppy discs went into storage. Now I have a win XP with an internal floppy drive but I dont think it's the same as it brings up the names of the files but when I try to read them they look like boxes and YY's.
They are HD as it say's on the floppy.
When I do try and open them it say's download import converter but can't do it as I don't have a CD rom with this computer as it's secondhand.
I don't think the issue is the floppy drive. I think the files were written by some program that you don't have on your new computer.
So, do you know what kind of files are on the floppies? Are they possibly files created by a word processing program? Back in 1995 you may have had something like Ami Pro or Word perfect.
You need to identify what they are in order to recommend what to do.
will try and find out and get back to you.
right click and see if properties is one of the options given.
Aren't the disks labeled with the file names or something? As was suggested, try right clicking on the floppy drive while one the the floppy disks is inserted and choose properties. May yield something.
Have right clicked and in properties it says file system is FAT.
But am looking up my old system to find out what program was used.
Just had a look at tech data and am sure it was wordperfect. ver 6.a
What word processing program is installed on the computer you are using to read those disks?
Microsoft Word has conversion files you may need to install in order to read the disks. If you have MS Works I don't think it can read those disks.
If you have Works, which is likely, try downloading Open Office, which is free and works well. The first link below is for the download of Open Office. The second link may help you in the conversion process.
What is it that you're trying to do with these floppies? I mean, I know you're trying to copy the data from the floppies to the hard drive on your XP machine, but then what?

Spray foam insulation is a typical choice for insulating properties for both inside as well as out. Unlike fiber glass blanket insulation, spray foam can achieve throughout program into tiny crevices; a gun sprays a two-ingredient foam mixture on the area for full protection. Two spray foam kinds are accessible in the market place, including closed and open cell. These two foam kinds have various programs. Examine the programs and functions of each to select the best type of foam insulation to your home when getting ready to to insulate.
If you are searching for a spray foam that contributes to the power of a structure, you may need to select closed-cell foam. As a surface is adhered to by the spray gasses inside the foam become trapped in small, individual bubbles. A powerful rigidity that really assists a an inside wall remain structurally sound is created by this wall of bubbles inside the foam. Therefore it forms a great piece with no holes for the greatest rigidity during program, the foam has to be sprayed.
Air Blockage
Both open- and closed-cell spray foams decrease the passing of air in to a framework. In cases like this, you can choose depending on the pricing framework as well as the area environment. Extreme temperature changes inside a location might dictate the closed-cell spray be employed; it retains the warmth and wintry weather at bay year round. However, milder climates can use the open-cell foam; it gives a sufficient barrier to the factors and is less costly compared to closed mobile.
Water Absorption
When you're trying to insulate a location, for example underneath the house, the -mobile spray doesn't perform; it doesn't provide the vapor barrier the closed-mobile spray offers. The rigidity of the cell that is closed contributes to water-vapor to its impermeability. It will not absorb water, which could damage around structural components including wood studs.
Application Concerns
To make your choice, you require to consider the program method. Open-cell spray h AS mo-Re over-spray; it it takes trimming along a disposal of the excessive foam as well as its edges. Closed-mobile spray doesn't have the extra materials concern. It's going to not need disposal or the trimming. The added function of disposal and trimming might a-DD to the labor rate with respect to the contractor.
