This is the fourth post in this series. You can see all of the posts by clicking on the Arts Aftercare tag.
I love and hate these pictures. From a photographic standpoint, I am really proud of this series of images taken at the PREDA Foundation. On the other hand, I hate that these pictures need to exist, and that this is a story which needs to be told. It seems impossible to ignore the devastation and loss of innocence these images also represent. But fortunately I do see hope in these images as well. I believe we were created with the capacity to choose great evil, but thankfully we also have the choice to love, which I believe has the power to overcome all else. At PREDA, I met some wonderful people who have made the decision to simply love, and care for the people who have been exploited and experienced so much devastation.
I arrived at PREDA with only 2 hours to work with before Becker and I had to take a taxi to Angeles City. It was a bit hectic when we arrived, and we didn't have much back story or time to prep for this stop. After meeting Alex, the program director, I asked if I could take a tour and look around. The tour started in the administrative offices, followed by the kitchen and then some classrooms. It wasn't exactly what I was looking for or interested in. Eventually, we went down a hall and into a large room filled with colorful metal bunk beds and bright blankets. Half of the room was lined with large windows, streaming in midday light. As I took it all in, I asked my tour guide what the room was, and she told me it was the girls dorm, for children 9 and under. To clarify, these are children age 9 and younger who have been sexually abused both commercially and domestically. Unbelievable.
I started the day expecting to make portraits, but this room was speaking to me, and drawing me in. I didn't have my camera with me, and after looking around for a moment, I burst out of the room, and down the hall to get my camera and tripod. I think my guide thought I was a bit strange, leaving the way I did with no explanation, but I couldn't move fast enough. I was in a zone. I spent maybe the next hour shooting these images of the girls dorm, although it felt like I was only there about 5 minutes.
Girls lockers.
Primal therapy room.
Father Shay, founder of PREDA Foundation in Olongapo, Philippines, on Subic Bay. Father Shay has dedicated his life to fighting for children who have been sexually exploited both commercially and domestically. He has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize 3 times, and I sincerely hope he is recognized by one in the near future.
I just can't decide between these two portraits. It is usually pretty easy for me to make these kind of decisions, but there is something about each of these that I can't get past. It doesn't help that everyone else I have asked have said both as well. What do you think?
Father Shay's desk. Nearly 40 years of hard work has happened here. I can't even imagine the phone calls, letters, and meetings that have taken place here over the years.
PREDA Foundation is a service provider for sexually exploited children in Subic Bay, Philippines, which infamous as a destination for sex tourism. From their website:
"In 1974, with Filipino helpers, Fr. Shay Cullen established the PREDA organization (Peoples' Recovery Empowerment and Development Assistance Inc.) to give shelter and protection and recovery to victims of abuse and more importantly to change this unjust situation in society that abandons children and criminalizes them and prostitutes them or allows them to be abused without getting help and justice."
PREDA provides many crucial services to the children, including residential care homes organized by age – one for girls as young as 9 years and under.

Chris Tillman allowed just three hits into the eighth inning as the Baltimore Orioles moved within 1.5 games of idle Tampa Bay for the second AL wild-card spot by beating the New York Yankees 4-2 on Monday.
The Yankees fell three games behind Tampa Bay after a game that featured an on-field confrontation between the teams' managers.
Both dugouts emptied briefly after the first inning, when Orioles manager Buck Showalter angrily exchanged words with Yankees manager Joe Girardi after Girardi apparently said something to Baltimore third-base coach Bobby Dickerson. Showalter had to be restrained by home plate umpire Ed Hickox.
Alex Rodriguez hit his 652nd homer.
In Miami, NL' Atlanta (86-57) passed Boston (87-58) for baseball's best record after Evan Gattis drove in two runs to highlight the Braves' highest-scoring inning in more than a month to break a four-game losing streak with a 5-2 win over the Marlins.
Justin Upton, Freddie Freeman and Gattis all doubled to lead off what became a five-run fourth, Atlanta's biggest inning since a five-run fifth against Philadelphia on Aug. 2. Kris Medlen (13-12) was the beneficiary that night against the Phillies and again on Monday, getting the win after allowing six hits and two runs in 6-1/3 innings.
Cleveland's Ubaldo Jimenez struck out 10 batters over seven innings and Asdrubal Cabrera, Yan Gomes and Carlos Santana each hit solo homers to lead the Indians to a 4-3 win over the Kansas City Royals in a matchup between two teams in the thick of the AL wild-card chase.
The Indians, who won despite having only five hits, stayed even with Baltimore, 1.5 games back from Tampa Bay for the second wild-card spot. The Royals dropped to four games behind the Rays.
Alex Gordon hit a two-run homer off Cody Allen in the eighth.
In other AL games, the Minnesota Twins downed the Los Angeles Angels 6-3, the Chicago White Sox beat the Detroit Tigers 5-1 and the Houston Astros defeated the Seattle Mariners 6-4. The Pittsburgh Pirates blanked the Texas Rangers 1-0 in interleague play.
In the NL, Travis Wood beat Cincinnati for the first time in his career, repeatedly pitching out of threats for seven innings as the Chicago Cubs shut out the Reds 2-0.
Gio Gonzalez held the Mets hitless into the seventh, before pinch-hitter Zach Lutz broke up the bid with a soft single as the Washington Nationals trounced the Mets 9-0.
The San Francisco Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 3-2 over 10 innings and the Los Angeles Dodgers thrashed the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-1.

The team is examining the on-board data and the vehicle hardware to assess the issue or issues as well as reviewing ground procedures. There are a number of ideas and theories but first reports are usually wrong so we won't speculate yet. The vehicle appears to be in good condition and only minor damage to some ground wire and hardware was experienced.
It was a great test and learning experience as expected. We obtained confirmation and a robust test of the thrust termination system, a necessary requirement for proceeding to free flight. We stressed the test team and our ability to manage and control anomalies. We obtained critical GN&C and flight control data to continue building confidence in the system. We achieved another clean start of our in-house built LOX/LCH4 engine. And finally we validated our philosophy of incremental build up and testing under the most controlled conditions possible.
This is exactly why we test. This is exactly why we first test powerful energetic systems under tether.
Finally it must be remembered if you wait to light the engine until you know everything you want to know, there is no longer a need to light the engine…other than to discover you were absolutely wrong that you knew everything.
More later....

Social Security SSI Payment Schedule for December 2018 to your AccountNow Gold Visa Prepaid Card
Customers with AccountNow prepaid cards may get their direct deposits faster▼
Supplemental Security Income SSI payments and some VA Benefit deposits with a normal payment date of November 30, 2018 from US TREASURY will post between November 26, 2018 and November 30, 2018.
Deposits for individuals who began receiving benefits prior to May 1997 or who receive both SSA & SSI payments with a normal payment date of November 2, 2018 from US TREASURY may post between November 29, 2018 and December 3, 2018.
If your normal social security payment date falls on the second, third or fourth week of the month, use this schedule:
The deposit dates shown above are ESTIMATES of when you will receive your SSI, Social Security, and Benefits payments, based on when we generally see payments post. Our ESTIMATED dates are not guaranteed.
AccountNow generally receives direct deposits from the Social Security Administration prior to the payment date shown on the Social Security SSI payment schedule for 2018. As soon as AccountNow receives these deposits, we post the SSI payment onto your prepaid card, to get your money to you as soon as possible. AccountNow has no control over when we receive direct deposits from the government.
Government payments are generally received before 8pm Central time. As a reminder we always post direct deposits as soon as we receive them as long as your account has been activated and is in good standing.[Tweet "AccountNow SSI Payment Schedule for December 2018 is live!"]
Direct Deposit – Frequently Asked Questions
How does it work?
Direct Deposit can be used for paychecks & government benefits checks (Social Security, SSI, SSDI, DFAS or VA compensation). All or part of your paycheck/benefits check can be directly deposited into your card account. Existing cardholders can log in to the online Customer Center to print a direct deposit form. Fill it out and give it to your employer or benefits provider. The form will include both a bank routing number (sometimes referred to as the 'ABA Routing Number') and your deposit account number.
How long will it take?
It generally takes 1 or 2 pay periods for Direct Deposit to begin. Ask your Employer or Benefits provider for more information.
How much does it cost?
Direct Deposit is a free† service for you and your employer or benefits provider.
How will I get paid faster?
Direct Deposit is the fastest way to get paid and avoid the hassles of dealing with a paper check. With Direct Deposit your funds are electronically deposited into your card account so there's no waiting for a check to clear. Once you set up Direct Deposit with your Employer or Benefits Provider, AccountNow will process deposits as soon as they are received – which may be up to 2 days faster than you would normally receive a check from your employer or benefits provider.
When will I start getting paid early?
Not everyone will get paid earlier than the employer or benefits provider's scheduled pay date as direct deposit and early deposit capability is subject to the employer or benefits provider's support of the feature and the timing of the payer's funding. If your employer or benefits provider supports direct deposit and sends funds in advance of your payday, you will see early deposits effective after the second direct deposit is received.
Can the dates of my deposits vary?
Yes, the dates of your deposits may vary depending on the timing of the employer or benefits provider's funding.
Are all AccountNow cardholders eligible for early deposits?
Yes. Click here to sign up. It's important to note that not all deposits will post early, as it is dependent upon when we receive your deposit information. Each pay period may vary.
What if I am already enrolled in Direct Deposit?
You don't need to do anything. If you already made more than 2 deposits, you should already have seen the benefits of this new feature and are getting paid earlier!
How do I qualify for the $15 Direct Deposit bonus?
This offer is available to all AccountNow Gold Visa Prepaid Card customers. To qualify for the $15 direct deposit bonus, within 6 month after being approved to receive a card you must deposit at least $500 per month via recurring direct deposit in two or more consecutive months. Learn more.
▼Applies to customers with prepaid cards with recurring direct deposits, and will be effective after the second direct deposit is received. Faster access to funds is based on comparison of traditional banking policies versus eligible electronic direct deposit. Direct deposit and early deposit capability is subject to payer's support of the feature and timing of payer's funding.
†There is no additional charge for this feature, but fees apply to your prepaid card. See your Cardholder Agreement for fees, terms and conditions.

Since the late 1990s, the United States has funneled billions of dollars in aid to Colombia, ostensibly to combat the illicit drug trade and State Department-designated terrorist groups. The result has been a spiral of violence that continues to take lives and destabilize Colombian society. This book asks an obvious question: are the official reasons given for the wars on drugs and terror in Colombia plausible, or are there other, deeper factors at work?
Scholars Villar and Cottle suggest that the answers lie in a close examination of the cocaine trade, particularly its class dimensions. Their analysis reveals that this trade has fueled extensive economic growth and led to the development of a "narco-state" under the control of a "narco-bourgeoisie" which is not interested in eradicating cocaine but in gaining a monopoly over its production. The principal target of this effort is the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), who challenge that monopoly as well as the very existence of the Colombian state. Meanwhile, U.S. business interests likewise gain from the cocaine trade and seek to maintain a dominant, imperialist relationship with their most important client state in Latin America. Suffering the brutal consequences, as always, are the peasants and workers of Colombia. This revelatory book punctures the official propaganda and shows the class war underpinning the politics of the Colombian cocaine trade.
Exceedingly well researched and written, this book lays bare the putrid essence of an important component of U.S. imperialism in its current form. Villar and Cottle are to be commended for their vital contribution to our understanding of the structures and dynamics we now confront.
This timely and important book unravels the 'official discourse' of the war on drugs and the related war on terror. It tells where the vast majority of profits from the multi-billion dollar Colombian cocaine trade go – certainly not to the impoverished people growing coca leaves – how the profits get there, and how this ill-gained wealth furthers the imperial interests of the U.S. and its collaborators in the 'narco-bourgeoisie' in South America. A definitive account.
Villar and Cottle's profound and courageous book shows forcibly that the 'war on drugs' in Colombia, as elsewhere, entrenches narco-states in the interests of the empire from which it emanates, even as its war on terrorism perpetrates and institutionalizes terror. Their forthright findings rest firmly on overwhelming evidence, carefully compiled.
Colombia has long been at the center of diverse studies into and debates on the workings of U.S. imperialism in Latin America, as well as the political dynamics of class warfare and narco-state formation, but rarely with such solid research and sharp theoretically informed analysis. This book is a tour de force of rigorous Marxist class analysis, reconstituted after its abandonment by many who succumbed to the virus of postmodernism. It is also very well written, a surprisingly readable account of the contours of class struggle in one regional context of what we might describe as the capitalism of the twenty-first century. A must read for all progressive and critical thinkers.
Just like those who become addicted to cocaine, the American public is in denial about its government's long history of using narcotics—their production, use, and prohibition—as an integral part of its imperial political arsenal. But drugs have been a part of the Great Games from the 18th century, when the British East India Company's factories produced opium to enslave the Chinese. Villar and Cottle's work, focusing on Colombia, is an important contribution to exposing this particularly monstrous imperial byway and its very 'deep political' repercussions.
To go against the flow is a great feat. In this work Oliver Villar and Drew Cottle have done that. In short supply indeed are those who show, as they do, that the real 'histories' of violence, drug trafficking and guerrilla war in Colombia are not those repeated by the great majority of media and 'experts.' The authors have not tried to be neutral: they have taken pains to be objective and honest.

Plus Lemieux, Alvarez, Bizier & McGuinness
MONTREAL (December 12, 2012) – Only two more days before Laval's popular Jean Pascal (26-2-1, 16 KOs) finally returns to the ring at the Bell Centre in Montreal, away since his heart-breaking loss 19 months ago to Bernard Hopkins, which cost him his World Boxing Council (WBC) light heavyweight title belt.
Contrary to his normally calm approach to a fight, Pascal feels anxious and nervous over his time away from the ring going into Friday night's fight against an opponent who also boxed in the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, as Pascal did, 2004 Polish Olympian Aleksy Kuziemski (26-2-1, 16 KOs). It is not the fear of his opponent's attack – Pascal has never been afraid of another fighter – rather the anxiety of having lost his bearings, not being able to fulfill the expectations of the loyal Quebec public. He is well prepared, as skilled as ever, and he will give his best effort on Friday night.
Pascal's potential world title fight on HBO against WBC World Champion Chad Dawson, at least for now, remains down the road. All that Pascal is focused on right now is Friday, Dec.14, and his tough European opponent.
Lemieux against Russian Ayrapetyan
As previously announced, Friday evening's co-feature will showcase relentless Montreal slugger David Lemieux (27-2-1, 26 KOs) in a 10-round fight. His opponent is 31-year-old Russian Alberto Ayrapetyan (20-3-0, 9 KOs), who resides and fights out of Germany. Ayrapetyan has suffered only one defeat before the limit, losing to the great middleweight champion of the world, Sergio "Maravilla" Martinez, in the 11th round of their WBC Latino Championship fight. Ayrapetyan, as Lemieux, is of Armenian origin. Lemieux speaks French, English, Armenian, Spanish and Arabic; Ayrapetyan is also multilingual, according to his Facebook page, fluent in German, Spanish, Portuguese, Armenian and Russian. These two should find it easy to understand each other the ring.
Alvarez vs. 2011 European champion Danny "The Big Mac" McIntosh
Englishman Danny "Big Mac" McIntosh (13-3-0, 7 KOs), 32, will challenge talented North American Boxing Association (NABA) lightweight champion Eleider "Storm" Alvarez (10-0-0, 6 KOs). McIntosh was the Great Britain light heavyweight champion from 2008 to 2009, as well as European titlist in 2011. He lost his last two fights by technical knockout in valiant efforts against aspiring world champions. In May of 2011, he lost his European title in the eighth round to Eduard Gutknect (24-1-0, 9 KOs) in Germany. The judges' scoring indicated a close fight going into the eighth round. In a similarly contested fight last April in Liverpool, England, McIntosh was stopped in the fifth round by his United Kingdom compatriot, Tony Bellew (19-1-0, 16 KOs). McIntosh's three career losses (his other defeat was to current World Boxing Organization 175-pound champion Nathan Cleverly) have been to some of the best light heavyweights in the world.
"Storm has so much talent and determination," said Alvarez' promoter, GYM president Yvon Michel, "it has been tempting to move him faster. He has demonstrated that, despite having had only 10 professional fights, he can do as good as the best in the light heavyweight division, even against those with twice his experience."
Bizier, McGuinness and Rivas, confirmed opponent
Quebec favorite Kevin Bizier (18-0-0, 13 KOs) will back into the ring for the second time this year, matched Friday night with welterweight Doel "Amish Guy" Carrasquillo (16-22-1, 14 KOs), of Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Toronto's unbeaten Logan McGuinness (18-0-1, 9 KOs), a protégé of Adam Harris (Hennessy Sports Canada), will defend his NABA super featherweight title against Carlos Manuel Reyes (23-1-1, 15 KOs), from the Dominican Republic.
Quebec heavyweight Oscar Rivas (11-0-0, 6 KOs), who has fully recovered from a recent hand injury, takes on 36-year-old Hungarian invader Lazlo Peczeli (4-2-1, 3 KOs).
The opening fights on the stacked "Fast & Furious" card pits spectacular featherweight prospect Marc "Gwapo" Pagcaliwangan (1-0-0, 1 KO), fighting for the second time straight time in Montreal, against Hungarian boxer Richard Voros (4 -10-0, 1 KO), followed by heavyweight battle between Ottawa favorite Andrew Gardiner (5-0-0, 2 KOs) and Attila Nagy Tibor (4-5-0, 3 KOs), of Budapest, Hungary.
Friday night's event will be available for viewing by fans in the comfort of their homes via Canal Indigo, Bell TV, Shaw TV in Canada, as well as on WealthTV in the United States.
Tickets for the Dec. 14 event at the Bell Centre are on sale now, as well as for the three remaining GYM boxing series shows this season, the innovative and popular "Fast and Furious." Tickets, starting at $36.00, are available to purchase at the Bell Centre, or at evenko.ca, or by calling GYM at (514) 383.0666. Despite the magnitude of The Return of Jean Pascal, GYM resisted the urge to raise ticket prices.

What initially looks like great little "cubbie" space or "nooks" because of a curved wall or angled ceiling often ends up expensive to build out.
And it isn't always highly functional.
And here's why -
We all have specific items that need to be stored inside our closets. And these items "occupy" or "take up" defined amounts of space. For example, a pair of blouse that is 22" from shoulder to shoulder won't fit very well in a space that is only 18" deep.
In other words, just because you put a rod up in a location does not always mean that the hanging garments will fit within that space. If the rod is too close to the wall or a return wall isn't deep enough, the clothing may stick out in to a walkway or the hanger might not fit within the space.
So creating storage solutions in spaces that have angles can be tricky and require planning if you want to maximize function and have it look great.
Here are a couple of tips:
-The industry standard rod height for short hanging garments is approximately 42" from the floor. Shirts and jackets require about 24" in depth in order to fit in to a space. Placement of rods should accommodate these parameters.
-If you are using panel material (like melamine or wood), the system needs to attach to the structure of the house for stability. So while a large number of closet systems are installed using what is known as a "hanging system", this approach can't typically be utilized in situations with angled ceilings because you can't adhere the system to a flat, vertical back wall. That often means that a "floor-based" system is best because the panels go all the way to the floor and can be secured there so the system doesn't fall down.
-Shelving units will typically need to have backing so items don't fall behind the unit and into any "dead space".
-Low shelving doesn't always make sense. Attaching shelving to the walls within the space that has a straight, vertical wall is often difficult to access because it's low and you have to really bend down to get to it. The forward angle, or pitch of the ceiling prevents easy access. If you go with this option, you should consider it for long term storage and larger items that you don't need to access on a regular basis.
-Less structure often equals more effective storage when it comes to angled and unusual spaces. We often have people who want to organize the space underneath stairs. They have seen some gorgeous pictures on sites like Houzz or Pinterest and want to re-create the look. While this is a need we can meet, it requires a serious budget. Custom designing and building something to fit so beautifully and specifically requires not only math and good machinery, but on site trimming and cutting as well as fillers and possibly even the making of templates in advance.

The Yankees seem to have cornered the market on the high-priced spread, with Alex Rodriguez, Teixeira, C.C. Sabathia, and Derek Jeter all getting paid at least 17 million dollars annually, and recent free agent pitcher A.J. Burnett a mere piker at 16 plus extra large annually. The Yankees weren't content to pay only twenty-three million dollars in luxury tax, as they'll try to top that.Fans across America are adopting the "Yankee Hater" culture, this one from Seattle.
Will Boston fans concede the season after the Yankees have gone Over the Hot Stove Top in acquiring the best two pitchers on the free agent market and the best offensive player?
We concede NOTHING. The Red Sox continue to develop outstanding pitching from within, with Justin Masterson, Michael Bowden, and Daniel Bard all within spitting distance of major contributions, and Lars Anderson the "Justin Morneau in-waiting first baseman" working his way rapidly through the system.
We concede NOTHING.
When asked whether the Yankees were simply trying to buy a championship, the Yankee GM simply replied: there are four signs of Alzheimer's Disease:
- First, you start repeating yourself.
- Second, you forget things.
- Third, you start repeating yourself.
- Fourth,...well, I'll think of it later...

Date of stay:
Apr 08, 2016
Accommodation and facilities:
I stayed at the Kala for 10 nights. I enjoyed my stay there and do think it s good value for money. There were some pros and cons to the hotel. The hotel is located in between chaweng and lamai and has a pretty great view of the ocean. The beach isn t really a swimming beach however. It s on the wrong side of the island for swimming. The swell was significantly larger on this side compare to the other side where it s quite flat. The hotel is slightly dated/old and starting to show some wear. I imagine it would have been amazing when it was first built. You will need to hire a mo-ped from the hotel to get to most places. The road is too dangerous to walk on. It s about 5-10 mins from Chaweng and Lamai on the bike. We hired one for 8 days and didn t have any problems when returning it. The reception ladies were extremely helpful and nice and I couldn t speak more highly of them. The ladies at breakfast can get quite flustered when it s busy and need to be more accommodating to the customers. The hotel puts on an al a cart menu for breakfast which is quite nice. But it gets very repetitive if you stay more than 3 days. There needs to be more options and better coffee. The infinity pool was fantastic and has a great view of the ocean. As do most of the rooms. Most of the time the hotel was quiet but at night you can hear the cars on the road and there is a nest of birds in the vents which is extremely annoying first thing in the morning. All in all, great value and a good option for a lower end hotel.

It s our honeymoon trip and the room is simply terrific. The 6 ft bed and the 180 boundless seaview are awesome. We enjoy the room, the food, the pool, the kayak, the spa, the service...well, everything! With this room rate, it s really a good bargain. The hotel is a bit remote from the city centre but free shuttle bus is provided.

beautiful view but that s all. Beach access is only by walking on the main road, free shuttle to lamai provided by hotel only once per day at a time nobody really would use. So be ready to be always looking for a taxi. Tours proposed by hotel happened to be nothing like what was explained on paper. Staff even though kind too limited. Overall disappointing

PORTLAND, OREGON–Every year the Wooster geology faculty and many of our students travel to the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America to share our research and learn from our colleagues. As with most professions, these conventions are times to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. Wooster students also meet potential graduate advisors and collect more information and ideas for their Independent Study projects. We all especially enjoy seeing Wooster geology alumni at a gathering on Monday night.
We plan to post blog entries here about our experiences at this meeting. I arrived in Portland this evening because the paleontologists traditionally have a short course on the Saturday before the GSA convention officially begins. Most of the department will fly in tomorrow afternoon.

Brenda Villa in action for Team USA (photo courtesy Kirby Lee/US Presswire).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Brenda Villa will be the keynote speaker at the upcoming NCAA National Collegiate Women's Water Polo Championship Banquet Thursday, May 9 at Harvard University's Murr Center. The banquet precedes the 2013 NCAA National Collegiate Women's Water Polo Championships, which Harvard will host at Blodgett Pool May 10-12.
Villa, the most decorated athlete in the world of women's water polo, will join the eight best collegiate teams in the country at the banquet. Villa has competed in four Olympic Games for the US and most recently helped the red, white and blue to its first Olympic gold medal at the 2012 London Olympic Games.
The eight teams in attendance will be Southern California, Pomona-Pitzer, UC San Diego, Hawaii, UCLA, Princeton, Iona and Stanford. The teams will compete in a three-day tournament to crown the 2013 national champion.
The 2013 NCAA National Collegiate Women's Water Polo Championship will mark the first time in the 13-year history of the event that it will be hosted in the northeast region of the United States. Blodgett Pool has hosted several regional water polo championships, including the Collegiate Water Polo Association Men's Northern Championships in 2002 and the Women's Eastern Championships in 2009.

Only noblemen with extraordinary strength can grow up to become great generals. If a slave were to demonstrate such strength, it is an offense worthy of death.
Hong Gil Dong(Yoon Kyun Sang) is the second son of a slave, Amogae (Kim Sang Joong). When Gil Dong demonstrates extraordinary strength as a young child, Amogae tells him that he must always hide his powers in order to survive in Joseon Society. When Amogae loses his wife at the hands of the nobleman that he has served all his life, he kills his master and manages to get out of prosecution. Amogae escapes to a remote land and establishes a colony of bandits that becomes prosperous through trading and helps protect the common people from corrupt government officials.
Gil Dong becomes a traveling salesman who falls in love with Jang Nok Soo (Honey Lee), a performer in a gisaeng house, while her handmaiden Song Ga Ryung (Chae Soo Bin) falls in love with Gil Dong. When Gil Dong doesn't return from one of his trips, Nok Soo thinks he has abandoned her and makes her way into the royal palace, where she catches the eye of the tyrannical King Yeonsangun (Kim Ji Suk) and becomes his consort.
When Amogae is attacked and tortured by government officials, Gil Dong returns to his father's colony to become its reluctant leader to get revenge on his father's enemies. Can he protect the common people from the unjust tyranny of the king?
"Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People" is a 2017 South Korean drama series directed by Kim Jin Man.

spitfire13 necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 71 diseños de 21 diseñadores freelance.
A news style layout is required for a liberty related Australian site. It will be using Wordpress. The sort of thing we are after is the type of layout used by cnn.com and infowars.com. It must be attractive and neat. A header is required with a nice Australian liberty related design.
We require a professional, news style design that will eventually be used with Wordpress for an Australian liberty related site.
The design must be attractive, neat and professional.
This Wordpress theme is an example of how it's *physical* make up may look- the design itself must be far more attractive and presentable:
The website is called "Liberty Australia" and the domain is http://www.libertyaustralia.net.au. The design must feature an attractive header, possibly based around the Australian flag and/or Australian silhouette or other icons of the country (as long as it does not look like a tourist brochure) as well as imagery associated with liberty like the liberty goddess.
I really like the idea of having a symbol that contains a combination of something associated with liberty (like the liberty goddess mentioned above) and something associated with Australia (like the southern cross, or a silhouette of the country).
Overall we want something clean and professional, but visually attractive at the same time.
Please ask any questions.
- A professional and attractive design in the "news site" style- such as infowars.com, cnn.com etc.
- Visually attractive as well as clean and sophisticated.
- Various areas for latest forum posts, recent news articles, a features news articles ticker, about this site etc.
- A header that is attractive and Australian and liberty oriented
- Around 1000px in width to suit a 1024x768 resolution.
- A design that can be centred in the browser, though if your idea doesn't work that way try it anyway.
- An Australian flag-like colour scheme (but not color concentrated). White/off-white should be the predominant color as you look upon the page, but with highlights and focus points in blue and a little bit of red if it works.
- Please no beginners or inexperienced designers. We want something of a professional standard.

I want to use this blog entry to wholeheartedly thank all the men who have taken up the cause against breast cancer. It is no surprise that more and more men are getting in the fight — breasts are not only beautiful, they belong to the women men love. From small local groups who participate in the various breast cancer walks to large national organizations, these guys are often motivated by a breast cancer diagnosis that hit close to home. Many of their stories are about their loved ones who battled the disease. When over 200,000 women are diagnosed yearly, you know a lot of men are waking up to the ravages and heartache breast cancer causes.
The NFL is perhaps the biggest organization of men against breast cancer. For the past few years we have seen the players don pink cleats, gloves, and other items to show their support for breast cancer awareness. Coaches and players throughout the league are all too familiar with the disease, having seen wives, mothers, and daughters battle it. Deanna Favre, married to quarterback Brett Favre, is perhaps the best-known NFL wife diagnosed with breast cancer. She was diagnosed while still in her thirties and brought a lot of attention to the disease.
Men are also involved in several other national organizations working against breast cancer. I have had the opportunity to get to know Anthony May, who started an organization called Men for a Cause. Its logo, with a blue hand grasping a pink hand, is a twist on the pink ribbon we are all familiar with. Anthony and I have talked a few times over the past year as he built up his organization and website. He is committed to educating and motivating men to get involved in the breast cancer fight, raising breast cancer awareness, and providing early mammograms to women who aren't able to afford them through motorcycle rides and other fundraising events.
Men With Heart is a much smaller New England-based organization of men who have united to help raise awareness and funds to fight breast cancer. Most of the members have wives or partners who were diagnosed with the disease. Another large and well-known organization on the East Coast is Men Against Breast Cancer, founded by the son of a breast cancer survivor to educate men about caregiving and to support families of patients.
I am sure there are many more groups of men united in the cause. It is exciting that we are all in this together. Women are being empowered to fight this disease, and together we are focused on obliterating it once and for all.

So you're Qaddafi, a bloody-handed dictator, and the rebels are advancing steadily toward your capital. What do you do? Bring out the Cold War weaponry! The AP says scud missiles are now officially in counterrevolutionary battle.
Luckily for the revolutionaries, the 180+ mile long-range ballistic missile—which hasn't seen significant action since the first Gulf War—didn't hurt anyone in the strike against northern Libyan rebels. Unluckily for Qaddafi, this trump card didn't hurt anyone. Firing 60s-era missiles is likely a sign of a tenuous grip and a hugely weakened military—if it's taken this many months for the scud to launch, there's probably a reason for that. As in, they're probably not working significantly well.
This, as opposed to the rebels, whose ingenuity has only expanded as their fight's intensified. We'll see if Qaddafi has any more scuds up his sleeve. [AP]

– Brunette Barbie –
There's nothing more satisfying than strolling the streets and stumbling upon the perfect pink backdrop that matches your outfit aesthetic and makes you feel like barbie. It was meant to be.
Hello, welcome back my loves! I hope you all are doing well. Today's post was shot back in August while in Toronto when the sun was beaming and bare legs were the norm. Can't say the same for today whilst wearing layers under my denim coat but the sun is still shining and I truly can't complain.Read More »
– Momentum –
In this moment feeling utterly and completely myself.
Good morning my loves! I hope you all are having a great first couple weeks of September. I'm over here patiently waiting for my adventure abroad to commence in t-4 days!! Gathering all my list minute essentials and beginning to pack is just the beginning of all the mayhem but I live for these moments.
Speaking of, I also live for these simple moments, waking up at 6am, on my own and sitting in the remaining moments of darkness writing this post. That either makes me sound completely out there or quite introspective. Really I'm fine with either. I'm just enjoying these last couple weeks of summer break (school doesn't start until the 26th!! craziness) and taking it one moment at a time.
This look, which is seriously one of my summer favs, was shot back when I was in Toronto last month. After piecing this look together in a Starbucks washroom (I could tell you all the glamorous stories), I turned to my friend and couldn't help but laugh because I think I'm the only person who would wear this. That's seriously my favorite part about sharing my looks with you is always having that element of authenticity and individuality. I was definitely channeling vintage vibes here with the longer shorts and corset style top with shoulder pads. I also might be the only person who loves some good shoulder pads. Hate em or love em they're here.
I hope you all enjoyed this post! I can't wait to share my entire journey with you all following my trip to Scotland. Wishing you all a wonderful day and love you for reading.

From ONA: Entrepreneurial journalism (life after the mainstream).
September 23rd, 2011
With all the layoffs in the news industry in the past few years, it's easy to get down on journalism. However, journalism is not dead, it's adapting.
Two people who know that better than just about anyone are Laura Frank and Jennifer Lord Paluzzi. The two former mainstream journalism employees spoke Friday morning at the Online News Association Conference about how they lost, adapted, survived and eventually thrived as journalists.
Frank, who worked at the Rocky Mountain News (which shut down in 2009), decided to create a news startup, the Rocky Mountain Investigative News Network, when she was laid off. The I-News Network is a nonprofit investigative organization that has found its way.
Frank, the networks executive director, says the organization makes ends meet in the following ways:
* Donations and grants (which she said was the seed money)
* Underwriting (the nonprofit world's version of advertising)
* Partnerships with mainstream media.
* Products and services – As an example, Frank said the organization created a summer camp for high school students interested in investigative reporting.
Frank said the key is to "dip your toe in."
"I'm not going to launch USA Today right away, but I'm going take steps that lead me toward my goals."
Paluzzi, the managing editor of Main Street Connect in Massachusetts, said she capitalized on a small-but-growing blog about small-town news when she got laid off.
She said her former colleagues probably belittled her little blog until it grew into a nine-site network. She said they were then saying, "Why did we lay you off again?"
Paluzzi sought to cover small towns that were ignored by regional newspapers, which had cut back on coverage.
"The blog blossomed into something quite bigger than what I expected. That's the fun part."

Denver hockey gets signatures from Borgstrom, McLellan and Fear
University of Denver coach Jim Montgomery has officially added forwards Henrik Borgström (Helsinki, Finland), Tyson McLellan (San Jose, Calif.) and defenseman Erich Fear (Winnetka, Ill.) to this fall's incoming freshman class. The Pioneers signed forwards Kevin Conley (Wausau, Wis.) and Liam Finlay (Kelowna, B.C.) and defenseman Michael Davies (Kirkwood, Mo.) in November.
Borgstrom, a junior star from Finland, is Central Scouting's ninth-ranked European skater eligible for the upcoming NHL draft. McLellan is the son of Edmonton Oilers coach Todd McLellan and Fear goes 6-foot-5 and 220 pounds.
"These young men are great additions to our program and we're thrilled they've decided to come to Denver," Montgomery said in a release. "Henrik is a highly-skilled center with great size who is expected to be taken early in this summer's NHL Draft and will be a strong presence up the middle for us. Erich is a tenacious defender with tremendous physical attributes that we believe will be a great fit on our blue line and has the potential to be a shutdown defenseman in the mold of Josiah Didier (Class of 2015). Tyson is an extremely intelligent forward that will also fit in well with the culture we've created here and will be able to play solid, Denver-style hockey right away for us. All three student-athletes add to our impressive depth – both up front and on the back end – and we're looking forward to having them in Crimson & Gold next season."

World's Fastest Nose Typer Is Impressive (And Totally Unnecessary)
In this computer-mad age, typing is an essential skill. Typing with your nose? Well, that's just an added bonus.
Khurshid Hussein is the world's fastest nose typer, which must make him fun to have around when you want to dictate an email.
The Indian man recently set a world record by correctly typing a 103-character sentence in 47.44 seconds with his honker, crushing the old mark of 93 seconds.
And that should give him plenty of reason to stick his nose up in the air around us lesser-gifted nose typers.

Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 54:12 min. A con man (Giovanni Ribisi) on the run from a vicious gangster (Bryan Cranston) takes cover from his past by assuming the identity of his prison cellmate, Pete, "reuniting" with Pete's estranged family, a colorful, dysfunctional group that threatens to drag him into a world just as dangerous as the one he's trying to escape - and, just maybe, give him a taste of the loving family he's never had.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 56:32 min. As business flags, tensions rise between Pete's grandparents, Otto and Audrey. Marius proposes a risky play to help Julia manage a dangerous client, but when they encounter problems, the "cousins" must rely on Audrey's expertise. While evading a mysterious pursuer, Marius visits former partners Katie and Karolina in NYC and remembers how three years ago, he made a powerful enemy of Vince.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 49:38 min. Marius' exacting parole officer insists that he come into the city for a mandatory appointment. To get there on time, Marius must fend off Pete's curious cousins Julia, Taylor, and Carly, an increasingly suspicious Audrey, and a terrifying ambush. Meanwhile, Eddie becomes desperate in captivity, Vince's lieutenant Winslow hunts for Marius, and a reluctant Katie helps Marius cover his tracks.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 50:22 min. Lured by the promise of a big payday in the bail bonds office's safe, Marius tries to work the angles with Pete's family. However, he finds it more difficult than he expected to manipulate Taylor, who harbors both a vicious temper and a dangerous secret of his own. Back in the city, Vince struggles with a difficult client at the poker table and takes his frustrations out on his crew.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 50:20 min. Audrey and Otto argue over Audrey's unilateral decisions, the fallout from which may cost them their business. In the process of helping Otto investigate one of his nagging suspicions, Marius makes a major discovery about Audrey's finances. Meanwhile, Carly quizzes her mysterious cousin about his past, Julia rekindles her relationship with her ex Lance, and Vince has a new job for Eddie.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 50:38 min. When a dangerous client's case goes to court, Bernhardt Bail Bonds struggles to recover the money he put up as collateral. Fearing retaliation if they can't come up with the money, Otto visits old friends on the local reservation, and Marius recruits younger talent to help. An outside source leads Carly to unearth a major secret about Pete, and Julia must decide whether she can trust Lance again.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 52:44 min. As they struggle to save the family business, Audrey strategizes with Marius, while Otto insists on doing things his way. Confronted by Carly's discoveries, Marius pays visits to both his old mentor and his former cellmate to backstop his identity as Pete. Taylor gathers evidence about the incident that left him suspended from the force, and Winslow follows Marius' trail to Katie and her family.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 53:55 min. After discovering that Audrey risked BBB's future on a fraudulent investment, Marius convinces her, a reluctant Julia, and a team of his old compatriots to con back the money from the person who ripped her off. Unbeknownst to Audrey and Marius, Otto unilaterally enacts a perilous plan to save the business. Meanwhile, Katie and Brendon hold a NYC detective bound and gagged in their basement.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 44:54 min. When Otto's solo plan ends with a dead man on the floor of the bail bonds office, Otto, Marius, and Lance are left at the mercy of BBB's dangerous client Dockery, who wants his collateral money back- and no more excuses. Marius finds himself in the hands of two unlikely saviors. Meanwhile, Vince comes up with a new plan to catch a cheater at his table, and Taylor shoulders new responsibilities.
Original air date: 01/12/2017 Runtime: 52:09 min. With all of the pieces in place, Marius sits down at Vince's poker table to make his final moves. Everything is going according to plan, until Vince becomes suspicious that he's seen this play before. When Audrey finds herself at the scene of a bloody crime, she must go against her instincts and trust her family to help her manage the situation. Julia embarks on a dangerous quest to save Lance.

Asked by Ken, Palm Springs, California
I'm about to travel to the other side of the world for a week and have to work the day after I get back. I've heard melatonin can help prevent jet lag when I return and would rather take that than medicine. What else can I do?
Living Well Expert
Dr. Jennifer Shu
Children's Medical Group
Thanks for your question. Traveling across the world and turning your biological clock essentially upside down can definitely cause problems with sleep, both while you are away and when you return.
Melatonin is a hormone found in the body that is also available in synthetic form as a supplement that may help stimulate sleep. As with medications, there may be side effects when taking supplements.
For melatonin, these can include nausea, headaches, dizziness, confusion and nightmares. Also, supplements may interact with any medications you may be taking. Before your trip, your doctor can advise whether melatonin is a good option for you and if so, the appropriate amount to take and when to take it (usually about an hour before the desired sleep time and either upon your return, during your trip, or both).
Some nonmedical options to try include staying hydrated, exercising or being active during the time you are supposed to be awake, and getting enough overall sleep before, during and after travel if possible.
Using eyeshades or room darkening curtains or blinds and a white noise machine may help you sleep better when you want to. Light therapy (such as from exposure to the sun or another bright light) may also help get you back on track.
Some people find that either increasing or avoiding certain foods (such as eating more protein to stay awake or more carbohydrates when trying to sleep) can help them recover more quickly from jet lag.
Readers, if you have any other tips, please feel free to comment below. Thanks!

Whenever there's an announcment about getting more file types to play back on the Xbox 360, PS3, or Wii, a lot of you always seem to want to remind everyone else that you're already running XBMC on your original Xboxes. Okay, we get it. It's great. Whopee! But if you are using XBMC, this $35 DIY kit can add IR-controlled On/Off to your beloved console.
With this installed, you can turn your Xbox on directly from your couch using the remote—or probably any universal remote—without having to run up and hit the power key. We wish our PS2 had this, since those three seconds of exercise are too much for our atrophied little hearts to bear.

Pictures of Twelve by Nick McDonell With Chace Crawford
Sneak Peek! Interiors From Twelve
Sneak Peek! Interiors From Twelve
My old friend Nick McDonell wrote the novel Twelve — which debuts as an adapted film today starring Chace Crawford — when we were both still in high school. A story written by a 17-year-old about affluent NYC private school kids involved in drugs, sex, and violence, it received lots of attention from the hype machine and turned out to be a bestseller. It's a page-turner and it resonated with me at that age and as a fellow prep school student, so I'll admit, I've read it several times! Nevertheless, I was excited to see the trailer . . . but not only to relive the old tale. With wealthy Upper East Siders as characters, the film also showcases gorgeous interiors, which of course is the silver lining! If you watch Gossip Girl, you know what I mean. Come along and take a sneak peek of the interiors!

The FISA Amendments Act Is Clearly Unconstitutional; And Congress Doesn't Care
from the but-but-terrorism deptWe've been discussing the now annual rush to re-approve the FISA Amendments Act, despite the fact that the original bill was on shaky constitutional ground, and it's been made much (much, much) worse due to a secret interpretation of what the law means (a secret interpretation that many in Congress apparently have no interest in finding out about). Andrew Napolitano, a former judge, has penned an interesting column laying out many of the reasons why the whole thing is completely unconstitutional. First, he notes that the establishment of FISA itself is likely a violation of the 4th Amendment:
The constitutional standard for all search warrants is probable cause of crime. FISA, however, established a new, different and lesser standard -- thus unconstitutional on its face since Congress is bound by, and cannot change, the Constitution -- of probable cause of status. The status was that of an agent of a foreign power. So, under FISA, the feds needed to demonstrate to a secret court only that a non-American physically present in the U.S., perhaps under the guise of a student, diplomat or embassy janitor, was really an agent of a foreign power, and the demonstration of that agency alone was sufficient to authorize a search warrant to listen to the agent's telephone calls or read his mail.Already troubling enough, but, as Napolitano notes, things weren't just left there. They've continued to stretch and change the conditions, taking it further and further into unconstitutional realms:
Over time, the requirement of status as a foreign agent was modified to status as a foreign person. This, of course, was an even lesser standard and one rarely rejected by the FISA court. In fact, that court has rarely rejected anything, having granted search warrants in well over 97 percent of applications. This is hardly harmless, as foreign persons in the U.S. are frequently talking to Americans in the U.S. Thus, not only did FISA violate the privacy rights of foreigners (the Fourth Amendment protects "people," not just Americans); it violated the rights of those with whom they were communicating, American or non-American.It's just those Patriot Act amendments (the FISA Amendments Act) that is being debated right now. And given some of the questions being asked by politicians who understand the "secret interpretation" of the FISA Amendments Act, it appears that it actually gives law enforcement the ability to go even further. So it's not even just about emailing or calling your cousin in Europe, but as long as law enforcement (a) claims that it's related to a terrorism investigation and (b) they have no specific knowledge at the time of acquisition only that the communication is domestic -- then they can collect just about anything. So, under that interpretation, it appears that the NSA can just collect well, almost anything, by saying that it's all for the sake of a permanent and all encompassing terrorism investigation, and since they're just collecting absolutely everything, they have no specific knowledge at the time of acquisition that the communication is domestic.
It gets worse. The Patriot Act, which was enacted in 2001 and permits federal agents to write their own search warrants in violation of the Fourth Amendment, actually amended FISA so as to do away with the FISA-issued search warrant requirement when the foreign person is outside the U.S. This means that if you email or call your cousin in Europe or a business colleague in Asia, the feds are reading or listening, without a warrant, without suspicion, without records and without evidence of anything unlawful.
Considering that Napolitano's argument starts from the idea that FISA itself is unconstitutional, looking at where we are now from where we started, we're no longer just in "unconstitutional" mode, in which we've tip toed over the boundary. We're now in a full on, 100% "let's mock the Constitution" mode. And, Napolitano, like many others, wonders why almost no one in Congress is willing to point this out:
Moreover, everyone in Congress has taken an oath to uphold the Constitution, which could not be more clear: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects..." shall not be violated, except via a warrant issued by a neutral judge upon the judge finding probable cause of crime. If we let Congress, which is a creature of the Constitution, change the Constitution, then no one's liberty or property is safe, and freedom is dependent upon the political needs of those in power.It's no secret that politicians use fear to increase their own power and to cut away at civil liberties. We have plenty of history that demonstrates that. It's just a real shame that so few people seem willing to speak out about this -- or that so few people even seem to care that the government has done this.
The President and the leadership of both political parties in both houses of Congress have abandoned their oaths to uphold the Constitution. They have claimed that foreigners and their American communicants are committed to destroying the country and only the invasion of everyone's right to privacy will keep us safe. They are violating the privacy of us all to find the communications of a few. Who will keep us safe from them?
