Ram Tirath temple and fair in Amritsar, Punjab
Ram Tirath is an old pilgrim place close to the Amritsar city. Learn more about the festivals and fairs in Ram Tirath near Amritsar and how to reach Ram Tirtha in Punjab.
Ram Tirath temple in Amritsar is situated in the Amritsar district of Punjab on the Amritsar Lopoke road, around 11 km from the city. The Ram Tirath fair Punjab is one of the most famous fairs and festivals of Punjab and Ram Tirath has a very old religious connotation as well to the Ramayana and has been a well known place of pilgrimage since ancient days. It has been mythically believed that this was the place where there was the cottage of the Rishi Valmiki where Sita had spent her sad years of exile. This was the place where she had given birth to the twin sons Lav and Kush. Moreover, the composition of the epic, the Ramayana, had also been done here by Maharshi Balmiki, which the two juvenile minstrels Lav and Kush sung in the court of their father Ram Chandra. The twin boys also displayed their excellence of marital skills at this place by defeating the troops of Sri Ram at this very place, in the Ram Tirath, Amritsar, Punjab.
Ram Tirath temple in Amritsar, Punjab
This place is specially known nowadays for the local Ram Tirath Mandir Amritsar about fifteen days after the Diwali. This Ram Tirath Mela in Amritsar is continued over a duration of five days. Here is an ancient tank which is mythically believed to be dug by Shri Hanuman Ji. This particular water body is given a great deal of mythical and religious importance. A wide number of temples have been set up around the three kilometer circumference of this pond and there is also a paved path for parikrama or circumambulation around the tank because circumambulation is seen as a sacred ritual to show honour by the Hindus. The pilgrims also fervently believe that it is quite good and auspicious for them to take a dip into the sacred waters of the tank in the early hours of the full moon night, which is called Puranmashi in the local language (Sanskrit Pournamashi, known as Purnima in the eastern India and Pournami in the south). During or after the bath, the devotees chant different mantras and hail the glory of Sri Ram by repeatedly taking his name.
Ram Tirath Fair in the temple complex
Ram Tirath fair in the Ram Tirath temple complex in Amritsar is the most important schedule of the year in this place. As far as records indicate, more or less one million pilgrims visit the Ram Tirath fair every year. In this place you will also find a large congregation of jatadhari hermits in their meditations. Even the Sikh people also come in numbers from different corners of Punjab and even from outside the state to pay their homage to Sri Ram Chandra in this fair. A myth goes about this fair that taking a dip in the water body known as Mata Sita di Baoli will enable them to give birth to children if they haven't have any.
The most interesting and gorgeous aspect of this fair is the floating of tullas or lamps. These lamps are made of flour and the fuel used is mustard oil or ghee. Usually these lights are made to float on leaf plates or vessels made of reeds. On the night of the full moon, women light these lamps, and while chanting and reciting sacred hymns, gently leave them on the water of the tank to float. Traditionally believed to have the power of washing off one's sins, this rite of floating lamps in Ram Tirath tank is locally known as tulla toarna. This Tulla Toarna in Ram Tirath Amritsar is said to please Lord Ram Chandra and to make his boons and blessings shower on the devotee.
In the Ram Tirath fair the common arrangements for entertainments are also there that include merry go rounds, acrobatics, magic shows and so on. Wandering minstrels are also there to sing and please the people. In a temporarily built pavilion in the fair ground, various religious and social organizations also arrange for various conferences and seminars to throw lights on the manifold aspects of the socio-religious life of Punjab. The fair also makes a prominent social contribution due to the rule universally observed by the devotees here, that the pilgrimage to Ram Tirath will remain incomplete and will not yield the satisfactory result until and unless alms are given to the beggar, the leper and the crippled.
How to reach Ram Tirath fair in Amritsar, Punjab
Reaching the Ram Tirath fair is not a big issue. Special buses are regularly plied by the Punjab Roadways between Amritsar and Ram Tirath during the festival. Also, Ram Tirath is only 11 kilometres from the city of Amritsar and you can just rent a taxi from Amritsar. Reaching Amritsar is no problem from any part of India since it is one of the major cities in Punjab and has excellent rail and road transport connections with almost all parts of the country. The Raja Sansi International Airport in Amritsar which is nowadays called Sri Guru Ram Das Ji Airport also has excellent flight connections to major cities of India like Mumbai and Chennai.

I have to admit that I have never really been much of a fan of missionary work. I have no doubt that there are organizations that are doing good and genuinely helping others, but for some reason they do not excite me. Organizations that bring medicine and health care to impoverished nations are definitely ok in my book, but they do not necessarily have to be missionary oriented or even religion-based to do good. Imagine a missionary knocking on a door in Iran (as if this would be tolerated) and Ahmed comes to the door to hear how he must be saved by the blood of Jesus. Do we honestly think that Ahmed would believe this person whom they have never met and declare that his parents and grandparents are liars for telling him that Allah is the way?
I think a lot of my cynicism stems from an experience that I had in college. Our social psychology professor introduced us to a non-profit that would arrange sponsorships for children in third world countries so that they could be fed and clothed. This sounds all fine and good on the surface and I thought it was too until I heard the catch – the children had to profess a belief in Christ. I asked the professor to clarify that these children had to decide to believe in Jesus and that even if there were starving children living in the same tent they could not receive any help without professing faith in Christ. The professor confirmed that this was true AND thought that it was quite alright to have such a system. I was livid to say the least.
The primary goal of a missionary is a decision. Much like the organization that I described above, there is an agenda in place to convince the person being served that he or she should profess a belief in Jesus for the salvation of their immortal soul. This stems from a view of the Gospel as an individual necessity to believe in and be saved by Jesus or else face the consequences. As I have mentioned before, I have a hard time seeing the gospel in this light. For me, the Gospel is what Jesus said it was in Luke 4: good news for the poor, freedom for the captives and the oppressed, and sight for the blind. These are all acts of compassion done without an agenda merely for the sake of showing love. This is being missional.
As our church moves toward becoming a missional church, many may have visions of droves of homeless people wondering our halls or even members of IUCC knocking on doors with tracts trying to convert the community to Christianity so that we can fill our pews on Sundays. Let me assure you, this is not the vision. Rather than having an agenda, we want to go in to the community with a purpose – to show love to the community and help those who are in need. That's it. No strings attached. No starving children going hungry because they do not submit to our teachings. Rather, we want to live by the example of Jesus and bring hope to the hopeless as we do our part in continuing to write and act out the story that God put in to action so long ago. We need only to look out our front door to see what God is already doing in our community. All we have to do is get on board. Now being missional doesn't sound so bad, does it?

16 Ways To Detox Every Day
We're all human. We partake in the occasional (or more frequent) indulgences life has to offer. Even as a practicing health-fanatic-vegetarian-yogi, I can't imagine my life without my favorite glass(es) of red wine and dessert! Daily detox measures help counteract the less healthy items we put in our body, as well as the environmental factors for which we have little control.
Instead of relying on intense, short-lived detoxes, begin incorporating these steps to detox your body EVERY SINGLE DAY of your life.
1. Drink hot lemon water.
Kick-start the detoxing process first thing in the morning by drinking a cup of warm water with lemon and cayenne.
2. Have a fresh cold-pressed juice
Do it on an empty stomach, which allows your body to absorb the nutrients more quickly. My go-to detox elixir: lemon, kale, spinach, spirulina, and ginger – the more greens, the better!
3. Sip a detox tea.
Sip a few cups of detoxifying tea blends throughout the day. Look for ingredients such as dandelion root, ginger, burdock and licorice root.
4. Add apple cider vinegar.
Along with a host of other benefits, apple cider vinegar alkalizes the body and helps detox the liver. Buy the raw, unfiltered and organic variety.
5. Eat detoxing foods and supplements.
The liver and kidneys serve as the body's filtration system, and thus are integral to overall health and cleansing. Incorporate the following to aid in continual kidney and liver cleansing: parsley, cilantro, dandelion root, licorice root, cayenne, turmeric, red pepper, garlic, lemon, lime, grapefruit, sea vegetables (seaweed salad, nori, dulse), artichokes, beets, cruciferous vegetables, wheatgrass, spirulina, chlorella and milk thistle.
6. Eat clean.
Incorporate fiber into your diet to keep the elimination process flowing. Limit or avoid high-mercury fish such as swordfish, tuna, mackerel, shark, marlin and grouper. General rule to follow: larger fish typically have higher levels of mercury. Avoid refined sugars, processed foods, alcohol, caffeine and non-organic fruits and veggies.
7. Sweat.
Sweating is crucial for expelling toxins. Use an infrared sauna, which assists in removing heavy metal toxins stored in fat tissues. Take a Bikram yoga class — or any yoga class! Exercise with extra layers to help increase body temperature and perspiration.
8. Invert.
Scientifically shown to help the cardiovascular, lymphatic, endocrine and nervous systems, inversions reverse the flow of gravity, stimulate the lymphatic system, and aid in blood purification. Traditional inversions include:
- Shoulder stand
- Headstand or handstand
- Legs propped up against a wall
9. Jump.
Rebounding is great for stimulating the lymphatic system and increasing circulation. Small, portable trampolines are a quick and easy way to build jumping into your daily routine.
10. Eliminate.
Elimination seemed appropriate for the "Move" category! Further cleanse your colon by taking daily fiber supplements, probiotics, digestive enzymes, and incorporating colon cleanses such as colonics or enemas.
11. Dry body brush.
Before showering, dry brush your body head-to-toe, using long strides toward the heart. This activates the lymphatic system, stimulates blood circulation, and enhances toxin elimination through our body's largest organ — the skin!
12. Tongue scrape.
Yes, it sounds funny, but this quickly cleans the tongue of accumulated bacteria and toxic debris from the night before. Think of it as giving your body an extra assist in the detox process, while also achieving better breath! I promise you'll be hooked.
13. Try hydrotherapy.
Hydrotherapy encompasses a large range of approaches and methods. An easy way to incorporate hydrotherapy daily is by alternating between hot and cold water every 30 seconds in the shower. Cold water stimulates, causing blood vessels to constrict, while hot water relaxes and causes blood vessels to dilate. This alternation of hot and cold water improves elimination, decreases inflammation, removes wastes from tissues, and stimulates circulation.
14. Detox bath.
I have a magical detox bath formula resulting from many years of research and testing. And, yes, I'm sharing it with you! Take one every week to cleanse from the outside in.
- Dead sea salts / Epsom salts (2 cups): draw toxins out through the skin
- Baking Soda (2 cups): naturally alkalizing substance helps remove toxins
- Fresh ground ginger (1 tbsp): heats-up body temperature, encouraging perspiration
- Therapeutic-grade essential oils (4 drops each): Geranium, eucalyptus and juniper berry possess powerful agents aiding in detoxification.
15. Get massages.
This deserves two exclamation points. Massages increase circulation, stimulate the lymphatic system and remove toxic build-up. They also feel pretty good.
16. Make your home healthy.
Introduce plants to your home (peace lilies, ferns and palms are great natural air filters), change A/C filters regularly, avoid harsh household chemicals, install chlorine filters, introduce an air purifier, and consider a reverse-osmosis water system.
Good luck and enjoy — your body will thank you!

In my quest to prepare for the competition I cannot neglect my kettlebell training responsibilities so I can pass RKC instructor certification. Moreover, I know that I will have to tweak certain things that I do so my focus will be on building strength and endurance while safely working on the moves that I know would not cause injury and already practiced with my other coaches during training that I took. For example, I now there are snatch requirements to pass and become RKC certified. But I am also new and very particular about understanding how exercise works (could not get a deadlift right until Mark Rippetoe showed me how – yes I need that level of detail to get it right). So instead of learning it the wrong way (did you know it takes about 350 repetitions to learn and then 3500 reps to relearn the right way due to established neurological patterns), I will practice kettlebell military presses and swings so I get used to the kettlebell and build power and then during the training I will only need to get move right because I will already build strength (this is just one example of course).
I am in week 1 with a 3 whole body workouts per week split. The second workout is mid in intensity (90%-80% of ROM) which is perfect because I am pretty new to kettlebells so I will be starting at a lighter weight compared to my full capacity so I can nail the form. The goal is to work up to 16kg kettlebell for the test.
That said, the second weightlifting day of the first week is devoted to kettlebells – as if you already did not figure this one out 🙂
Here is the workout for today:
3 sets | 25 reps
- Unilateral Kettlebell Military Press
- Kettlebell Renegade Row
- Double Kettlebell Lunge
- Kettlebell Swing
- Turkish Get-ups
Stretch and enjoy your post-workout granola snack.

The Average/Min/Max tool on Advisor can be used to quickly get a view of the consumption of a datasource throughout the day over a large period of time. The tool works by finding the Maximum, Average and Minimum usage per 15 minutes of a selected datasource over a set period of time and producing a graph with these figures on it.
The average line can be used to identify if the maximum or minimum reading is an outlier by where it sits in relation to each one. As the average line tends towards one of the extremes that means the other extreme is more of an outlier. For example if you have a graph where the average line is close to the minimum usage that means there are a few maximum readings that are skewing the graph.
- How does the avg/min/max usage of a datasource change over the course of a day? This should roughly follow your work hours or the operating procedure of the meter.
- Can be used to see how stable the consumption is for a datasource, if you have something that should be a drawing a fairly constant amount of energy you can use the avg/min/max tool to see if this is the case and investigate further if not

The concept behind GhostComp is to associate a simplified version to a component (called Ghost). Then the script provides an easy way to switch back and forth between the Ghost version and the Real version in the model. The idea is that in many situations, switching heavy and complex components to their Ghost version would make the model view lighter to manipulate during the design phase (for orbiting, copying, etc…).

My father served in WWII. Did that make him an American citizen, or did he retain dual citizenship, and can anyone tell me how to find out? He died in 1986.
I was born in 1964.
I really don't know where to start, so any advice would be helpful. I do not have my father's birth certificate. I have no idea what document he used to join the military.
Thanks in advance for your help....

There is a forum of Native English Teachers (NET) in Hong Kong talking about our role in the Education system. One of the commentators broke the NET teachers into two possible roles: a "cute puppy mascot (doesn't know much but awfully fun to play with), or like a work colleague with a respected skill set that they utilize to the best of their ability."
In some ways, I fit in the 'cute puppy' area. Students learn best when they want to learn either by having fun or having what they are learning relates to how they live. Most of my lessons have lots of different activities to make the time move. They have games, role-playing, group work and other things to engage the students. The local teacher is either helping me, handling the discipline and a few have no purpose in the room. Where the difference comes is outside the classroom.
A lot of Hong Kong students don't have the chance to talk enough in class, and there isn't a lot of time outside of my lessons. I try to fill the gaps during the recesses, lunch breaks and after school where possible. Generally speaking, the lower form kids, loved it. The older kids hate it since their speaking is weaker as they don't speak as much in class. They are more afraid of making mistakes.
I want my students to get better in every way. The Hong Kong Education system is about passing tests/exams to get into a better school. It meant moving away from the 'cute puppy' role and into the role of an educator, but it has been tough as the kids see me as fun. They have a hard time switching when I switch to the 'educator role.' It is where I need to maintain discipline and bring some focus where the students struggle. It is also where I get frustrated.
The activities are still task-based and try to engage the student's interests. Keeping them on task when doing group and paired work is tough since they are not used to it in their other classes. Some teachers understand the value. They help guide this, but others can't see the value in it and do it without the same enthusiasm.
I want the things we teach were more focused on helping students be more creative than testing them on knowledge. I wish they help the students be more reflective and more compassionate for the future. Some teachers understand this. It is where I become more of a colleague. When we co-plan, we plan ways to build these into the students and try to help the students go beyond the task.
For other teachers, it is all about getting the students to the next grade if they know the knowledge or not. This is usually done in a more disciplinary role and is challenging when I want the kids to be happy.

General Questions
What is VyOS?
VyOS is a routing/firewall/VPN platform , forked from Vyatta, based on Debian GNU/Linux that runs on x86 hardware and many virtual machine hypervisors.
Should I try it?
It depends. If you are a network engineer/administrator or want to become one, you should. VyOS is more like IOS, JunOS and other enterprise platforms, not like SOHO appliances (D-Link, Linksys etc.). You need to understand what you are doing to configure it.
What version should I install?
The latest one. Newer versions are always better than older.
How often are new versions released?
The first official version was released on December 22nd 2013. We ask your involvement by testing our nightly builds and report any problems you experience.
What functions does VyOS lack?
There are some. For instance it lacks
- PBR (can be done with a trick),
- WebVPN,
- PPTP and L2TP clients,
- IPv6 flow accounting.
Most of the currently lacking features are to be implemented in future releases.
Does VyOS support other hardware platorms (MIPS, ARM etc.) or will it support them in the future?
It does not. One of project goals is to make it work on widely used hardware.
What hardware requirements does VyOS have?
Hardware requirements strongly depend on purpose your appliance is used for. For small branch offices Atom/C3 CPU and 256-384M RAM should be enough; for edge routers, large VPN concentrators and other high loaded appliances you should consider powerful servers.
How much disk space do I need?
At least 2 GB. More space is recomended to be able to upgrade your installation via image (see questions below).
How do I upgrade my installation?
Preferred way is to use image-based upgrade. Find the latest image and type command "add system image <image URL>". You may download the image to your appliance and specify path to file as the argument, or specify a remote URL.
Do not use 'full-upgrade -k', it may ruin your setup irrecoverable.
Can I install VyOS on an embedded platform?
Basically yes. try it!
Can I install on a CompactFlash?
You can, but you should reduce writing in this case (redirect logs to a remote syslog server etc.). It is better to use enterprise grade SLC cards rather than consumer grade.
Avoid using USB sticks in production, they are not intended for intensive usage and often fail.
What hypervisors can I use?
VMWare and XenServer are officially supported and appliance templates are provided for them. If you want to install on a Xen VM, use livecd-virt, it had Xen-aware kernel.
KVM and VirtualBox are known to work without troubles.
There are no reports about other hypervisors, but in theory they also should work.
How do I install debian packages?
First configure repositories. The Hydrogen release will be based on Debian Squeeze so:
set system package repository squeeze components 'main contrib non-free' set system package repository squeeze distribution 'squeeze' set system package repository squeeze url 'http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian'
Squeeze is not supported anymore, however Helium has some packages from Squeeze Long Term Support so:
set system package repository squeeze-lts components 'main contrib non-free' set system package repository squeeze-lts distribution 'squeeze-lts' set system package repository squeeze-lts url 'http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian'
In case you need more modern software or software that standard isn't available in squeeze, add
set system package repository squeeze-backports components main set system package repository squeeze-backports distribution squeeze-backports set system package repository squeeze-backports url 'http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports'
Then do "sudo apt-get update" and you can install packages with "sudo apt-get install xxxxxxx" as usual.
How do I enter configuration mode?
configure VyOS os for lazy people. Most commands take abbreviations , in this case typing "conf" will work.
How do list the current config?
Once in configure, can I use commands that are normally available outside config mode ?
add "run" in front of the command, eg: run show interfaces
Can I see a history of commands given previously ?
How do I apply my changes?
I am afraid my changes may break connectivity or make system inaccessible in other way. What should I do?
commit-confirm <MINUTES>
If everything is ok, issue
If you do not issue "confirm" command in given MINUTES (default is 10), your router will reboot and rollback to previous configuration.
I changed configuration and then changed my mind about commiting them. What can I do?
I added a user with "useradd"/edited a config in /etc and everything is lost after reboot!
Do not do this. Backend configuration files are created by vyatta code at config loading or commit. All configuration changes must be done with native CLI ("set" commands).
If you do not have in depth understanding of VyOS code, it is better to forget it has Linux inside.
Is it possible to make vyatta show all the settings, line by line? So it is easy to use copy and paste ?
run the command "show configuration commands"
How do I enable web GUI?
There isn't one (yet) There are some initiatives like vyBuddy by Cartman. Might get integrated in a later version.
Is any traffic filtering enabled by default?
Is there a way to filter traffic originated by router itself?
Per-interface firewall for local only control inbound connectivity. If you use zone-policy firewall, you can restrict in or outbound traffic from the router.
I created a firewall instance, but it does not filter anything.
You should apply it to an interface to make it work.
If I have firewall enabled, is traffic described in NAT rules automatically enabled?
No, it is not. If you have both firewall and NAT, you should have both filtering rule to allow traffic and NAT rule to do translation.
How do I view logs?
Use operational command "monitor log" to view all log messages. You also may use "show log tail" comand to monitor latest messages in real time.
Other questions
How do I shot web?
We dunno, lol.

Manchester United a plotting a move that would see Southampton left back Luke Shaw become the highest paid teenager in Premier League history, according to the Daily Star.
David Moyes is ready to offer the 18-year-old a staggering £75,000 a week to join the reigning Premier League champions in the summer.
The deal would see Shaw quadruple his current wages, and move ahead of Adnan Januzaj and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's £60k deals they signed as teenagers.
Shaw signed his first professional contract with the Saints last July, and has also been linked with Chelsea and Manchester City.
But United are ready to pay whatever it takes to land the £30million rated defender.
Shaw is a boyhood Chelsea fan, whilst his parents live close to their Cobham training ground.
But Moyes believed the money United are willing to offer puts them in pole position to land England's latest debutant.
Jose Mourinho is reportedly unwilling to match Southampton's high valuation of the teenager, but Moyes is willing to pay what it takes to win the race for his signature.
He sees the teenager as a crucial part of the new look United side he is hoping to field next season.

Recently, Warner Bros. announced that they would be launching a new DC Branded direct to consumer digital service in 2018. In the same announcement, the company stated that it would launch with several new titles including the long demanded Young Justice Season 3 and they frequently teased live action Titans show.
"Titans follows a group of young soon-to-be Super Heroes recruited from every corner of the DC Universe," reads the Warner Bros. press release. "In this action-packed series, Dick Grayson emerges from the shadows to become the leader of a fearless band of new heroes, including Starfire, Raven and many others. Titans is a dramatic, live-action adventure series that will explore and celebrate one of the most popular comic book teams ever."
The show is to be written and Executive Produced by, Akiva Goldsman, Geoff Johns, and Greg Berlanti, as well as, Executive Produced by Sara Schechter.
There are a few things that intrigue me here, but I have one major issue with the series. Akiva Goldsman. Now before you say Batman Forever or Batman and Robin are too old to count or that they were not that bad, let me stop you right there and agree with you. Batman Forever will be 22 years old in June, just as Batman and Robin will be 20. The films in all honesty were and still are fun to watch and for that time there were literally zero adaptions of comics that could stand up today. However, here is why I don't like it: the man gives off the "Money is all that matters" sense. He has given me the impression in interviews that he thinks his productions were the best they could have done even at that time, which they are not. In this day in age, lax effort or even misguided effort is torn apart relentlessly. Today the medium expects nothing but perfection. His work that he still seems so content with, isn't worth the modern days time. Adapt or Die Akiva!
The upside to all of this is Geoff Johns, who not only has proven he can ensure a proper cinematic adaption, but also wrote a fantastic 2006 run of the Titans and even recently took to Twitter to tease the famous Titan that is Beast Boy via hashtag.
The biggest thing that stands out for me with this show is the fact that if I was able to witness a proper adaption of Raven, my life would be fulfilled. I first got hooked onto the Titans due to the Teen Titans show that was massively successful on Cartoon Network from 2003 to 2006. After the show came to an end I looked elsewhere and into none other than Geoff Johns work with the characters. From that day, the Titans became one of my favorite teams in comics and a big reason why I've enjoyed Young Justice so much. Raven however has always stood out as my Favorite. Believe me with Cyborg, Nightwing/Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy and more recently Blue Beetle that is not an easy choice at all. Raven however has always been extremely dark and intriguing. The name Raven is bold and unique. I absolutely loved her redesign making her looking more like an actual raven. Her backstory always related to mine well in a way. When I was a child is suffered from Bi-Polar and my parents and friends and even the general public struggled to comprehend it. This resonated within the character as well. Her depression, rage, confusion and loneliness even when not alone. The character stuck with me ever since.
Titans seemingly came into the works around 2014 along with Krypton and the death of Young Justice. In 2016 the news broke that TNT would be passing on Titans, but Geoff Johns has continuously ensured the fans that this project is a big part of DC Entertainments plans, and guaranteed us that it would find a new home. Now we have it. The most interesting note is that despite being on The CW, it has been confirmed that it will be within the same continuity as the DCCWU by Executive Producer, Greg Berlanti.
The unnamed, DC Branded streaming service was a wise move by Warner Bros. for so many reasons. For starters, The biggest problem with DC shows has always been the spread across networks that couldn't help but compromise each others continuity. This new streaming service can ensure that the shows can be made within the universe without having to cater to a certain networks fan base. This will, in theory, ensure that the core fans of the properties will be the targeted demographic, resulting in the best possible adaptions.
This streaming service also opens the door for revivals much like Young Justice as much as passed projects like Titans. After seeing how fan response garnished a full revival of Young Justice, I would personally like to see Constantine receive a live action revival.
Like Constantine, Green Lantern: The Animated Series and Powerless, Young Justice was a show that got the shaft due to poor handling of the product by the network, poor toy sales and an onslaught of indirect issues that had nothing to do with the shows quality. This is an issue that happens in the medium and is not just an issue for DC. We've seen this with legendary projects like Firefly and Torchwood, but is sadly something you can't get around when it comes to television. Oh, wait. Yes, you can. The WWE proved this when they decided to ditch third party providers and move to a direct to consumer service. Personally, I think that the streaming service is one of the wisest things they could have done and is something that many fans have been clamoring for since around the time these projects were first announced
The Young Justice announcement revealed that the show would launch its third season on the service under the season title, Young Justice: Outsiders.
"In Young Justice: Outsiders, the teenage Super Heroes of the DC Universe come of age in an animated world of super-powers, Super-Villains and super secrets," reads Warner Bros.'s press release. "In the highly anticipated new season, the team faces its greatest challenge yet as it takes on meta-human trafficking and the terrifying threat it creates for a society caught in the crossfire of a genetic arms race spanning the globe and the galaxy."
Young Justice left off on a high point that has been hanging over fans for years and the question that arises now that we finally have had our prayers answered is whether or not the fire has been lost. With almost the entirety of the original production team and cast still in place and the known anguish they suffered right along with us, I think it's safe to say it's something to catch on premiere.
I think it's also important to mention a couple of things including the fact that back in November, Warner Bros. had fully acquired the digital service Machinima. This is the same service that had previously released the animated film Justice League: Gods and Monsters. Not only does this streaming service leave room for more projects like Gods and Monsters or even new projects within the Gods and Monsters universe, but it might also leave room for the launch of projects Machinima never released; Such as, Dial H for Hero that received a revamped title, #4Hero. #4Hero was pegged for a 2015 release, but never got it. Machinima was also set to air a DC contest show of some sorts, but that also never happened.
For years we would receive a small statement to ensure us that the Krypton project was still alive every half year or so, but earlier this month we received and entirely legit, leaked trailer for Krypton that showed us everything we had been waiting for. If we learned anything form this it's that DC keeps their word. Between this, Titans, Young Justice and the animated Constantine series, I know one thing; DC keeps their word and now, they have a platform that allows this to happen far more efficiently.
After all is said,we now have a much larger insight on the inner workings of Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment, as well as, a slew of new revelations and possibilities to chew on.

Info, Features, and Feedback
Are you tired of rolling the dice on build orders and unit choices? Are you worried that StarCraft II won't have the same professional appeal as Brood War? Look no further, because while Blizzard caters to the casual players, TeamLiquid.net puts the "sports" back in esports. TeamLiquid.net proudly presents StarCraft 2 Pro Mod, a community-wide, professional player inspired effort to bring SC2 back to its progaming roots: when skill and skill only decided who won.
With just a few subtle changes to Starcraft 2, TeamLiquid.net has greatly "professionalized" the game. With SC2ProMod's release this week, we fully expect the majority of SC2's competitive userbase to convert within three months. After just a few games, top players like Liquid`Tyler, Liquid`Nazgul, and Liquid`Jinro have already made the switch.
Starting with the release this month all TeamLiquid events will be run using SC2ProMod. We strongly urge other organizations that want to hold high level SC2 events and tournaments to adopt SC2ProMod. With TeamLiquid's help, we can take back SC2 and restore StarCraft to its rightful place as a competitive RTS and the king of professional gaming. Don't get left behind, try SC2ProMod today!
More screenshots at www.sc2promod.com
Liquid`Tyler aka Liquid`NonY was a top StarCraft: Brood War player who has since switched over to StarCraft 2. His accomplishments include winning the PokerStrategy.com TSL and placing second in the Courage Tournament in Seoul, South Korea. He also was a member of the Korean progaming team eStro. Currently, Tyler studies at Duke University.
Thanks for taking the time to talk with us. Introduce yourself for the new users!
Not a problem.
Let's jump right into it. Obviously you've been part of the testing team for StarCraft 2 Pro Mod. How did you get involved?
I've been consulting teamliquid for awhile now since I joined the actual team, Liquid` (confusing I know). I saw in the staff forum that R1CH was working on modifications to Battle.net. Someone asked the question if we could use this mod to edit the unit properties and stats to rebalance the game. When I read that it was possible, I got really excited and wanted to get involved.
This is a bit of a risky project, threatening to split the community in two and put teamliquid in bad relations with Blizzard. Is it really necessary?
Absolutely. StarCraft II has so many problems that are only visible by the top players. I've read comments on the forums that StarCraft II is a viable eSports - that is simply not true. The game is so sluggish and simplistic that I haven't had a desire to play it beyond a few dozen games in my division. All the top players are saying the same thing, and Blizzard isn't listening. Teamliquid has controlled the StarCraft community before, so why not the StarCraft II community? People will still be able to play both versions, but you would be a fool to try to be a competitive player without using the mod.
Can you go on about some of the bigger problems that you had with StarCraft 2?
Where to start? The most basic principle of StarCraft, defender's advantage, has been removed. Infantry charge up my ramp so easily and break cannons like they're not even there. The game was in a state where you mass units and just attack your opponent in one huge battle. It's just ridiculous. It reminds me of watching Warcraft 3 actually. Outside of that, there are units that are designed for harassment only, such as the reaper. It serves no function in any battle except harassing a base. Things like this just make the game so simple and obvious.
How did you and the balance team arrive at the final version of this mod?
It's important to understand that this is not a final version. It will be retested and continually updated. I was mostly involved in game testing, none of the theoretical balancing, so I'm not sure how they arrived at what they did. Once I played a dozen games, it became clear to see "this is overpowered" or "this is redundant" or even "this race suffers from this weakness." Then we changed it and tried again.
So how is the balance at release?
It's good but not perfect. It is a lot better than vanilla SC2 though. I feel the most important thing is that this mod rewards skill, not metagame. I felt I was getting no benefit from being a highly skilled player at SC2. I was losing games to players with terrible skills because they massed the right unit and a-moved. This game injects the skill back into SC II that was missing.
Will everyone like this mod?
Smart people will. I think almost all the Americans will quickly move to this. The Koreans too will understand that this improves the game. Some cheesy players, eastern Europeans and south Americans will probably not like it. Anyone with an understanding of the game will like it.
Thanks for your time.
No problem. Good luck to everyone trying the mod.
The idea of a professional mod for truly competitive Starcraft 2 goes back probably as far as the game announcement. The first discussion regarding SC2ProMod occurred as early as Blizzcon 2007, after TL Staff saw the direction SC2 was taking first hand. Work on it really picked up after Blizzcon 2009, and as our articles from back then show, we were greatly concerned about the balance and the viability for SC2 as an exciting ESPORT.
However, It wasn't after the Pokerstrategy.com TSL that we made a real breakthrough. As always we had a lot of ideas and designs for the Pro Mod already, but little had been actually done due to the workload of TSL.

About Our Vitamin A (Retinol) Test
Vitamin A that is processed in the body from animal sources (derived from fish, liver, eggs, etc.) is known as retinol. Retinol plays an important role in the formation of rhodopsin, a photoreceptor pigment in the retina of the eye. Vitamin A helps to maintain epithelial tissues that line most internal organs, glands and the body's surfaces. Vitamin A is a group of unsaturated nutritional organic compounds, including beta-carotene.
Typically the liver stores 80-90% of the body's vitamin A. Primary Vitamin A deficiency is usually caused by dietary deprivation for a long period of time, but it can also stem from fat malabsorption or liver disorders.
In children with complicated measles, vitamin A can shorten the duration of the disorder and reduce the severity of symptoms and risk of death. The younger the patient, the more severe are the effects of vitamin A deficiency. Mortality rate can exceed 50% in children with severe vitamin A deficiency.
Vitamin A that is derived from plant sources is known as beta-carotene. During digestion, the body converts some beta-carotene to retinol.
Deficient vitamin A levels can lead to:
- Impaired dark adaptation of the eyes/night blindness
- Xerophthalmia, when the eyes fail to produce tears
- Keratinization of the skin and mucous membranes in the respiratory, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tracts
- Drying, scaling, and follicular thickening of the skin and respiratory infections can result
- In children-- growth retardation and infections
It is easier to get higher amounts of retinol from animal sources than plant sources. Carotenoids are absorbed better from vegetables when they are cooked or homogenized and served with some sort of fat, like oil. Major sources of vitamin A include:
- Liver, beef, chicken, eggs, fish, whole milk, and/or fortified milk
- Leafy, green vegetables
- Yellow vegetables
- Bright or deeply pigmented fruits
Vitamin A deficiency can be more prevalent in people who:
- Have liver disorders
- Have diets that lack fruits and vegetables (individuals who are vegan or vegetarian)
- Are gastrointestinal surgery patients
- Have digestive disorders like celiac disease or Crohn's disease
- Have cystic fibrosis
- Have chronic diarrhea
- Have a bile duct obstruction or giardiasis
- Have cirrhosis

Fasting Instructions:
Fast for 12 hours and abstain from alcohol for 24 hours prior to collection.

Letter to President Sexton: Regarding Electronic Surveillance
November 10, 2005
From the members of Faculty Democracy.
Dear President Sexton,
We are writing to protest to the strongest degree possible that various CAS administrators (for example, Associate Deans Otto Sonntag and Richard Kalb), program directors, and Directors Of Undergraduate Studies (DUGS) have been added, evidently by administrative fiat and without permission or notice to the faculty, to the online Blackboard membership lists of various courses at the university. These administrators were therefore able to access electronic communication between professors, teaching assistants, and students officially registered for those courses. Moreover, names of some DUGS were added to the Blackboard lists for courses without their knowledge or permission so they now appear to
serve the university's electronic surveillance network. According to the NYU network user agreement, anyone who monitors network communication without permission is in violation of NYU policy, including the administrators who were enabled to follow Blackboard communication for professors' and teaching assistants' classes.
We would like answers to these questions: under whose authority were these administrators acting? Who decided on which courses and/or professors should be opened to surveillance? How does the administration plan to sanction those responsible for the
intrusion into academic privacy? What will the administration do to ensure that this type of behavior will not, and cannot, recur?
We consider this seizing of access to the communication between professors and their registered students to be an intensely unethical act, one that is in the deepest violation of academic freedom. At our meeting with you on Tuesday, you tried to assure us that your primary identity at the university was as a proud member of the faculty, but it is hard for us to believe that anyone committed to faculty rights and governance, and academic freedom (especially in the arena of classroom pedagogy) would countenance practices of this sort. These are acts of invasive intimidation. You suggested at our the same meeting that your opposition to the unionization of graduate students at NYU was a measure of your principled devotion to the sanctity of the academic process, and yet the university's effort
to resist that unionization have now evidently compromised the most basic principles defending that process. You also suggested that the various parties in this struggle no doubt were not acting from mendacity, but for outsiders to secretly listen in on the
communications of a class is mendacious in the extreme.
The principle of safe space – in terms of a classroom ethic of mutual respect, in terms of specific anti-harassment rules, and in terms of instructors' duty to seek consent before sharing any privileged communications or materials – is a principle that we all work painstakingly to establish in our classrooms. Indeed, it is fundamental to establishing the basis for a functioning class.
Opening of Blackboard lists to administrative surveillance compromises principles of free conversation and exchange perennially enjoyed not only by faculty, but undergraduate students
as well.
Nothing so confirms that academic workers at this university need protection and representation of their own choosing (such as the protection afforded to graduate students by a union) as this single egregious act, which goes against the foundational principles of higher education as well as those of a democratic and open society.
We spoke to you in our Tuesday meeting of the deep wounds that the administration's refusal to negotiate is causing the university. Now we must add the outrage we feel at this terrible and shameful act of misconduct. Faculty trust in the administration's good faith has been irreparably damaged, and we have little confidence in the university administration's ability to lead us out of this crisis. We urge a rapid effort to resolve this dispute with the graduate students before matters pass the point of no return in the university as a whole.

Bar Americain
Iron Chef Bobby Flay brings his adventurous style of American nouveau cuisine to Bar Americain, located in midtown west. Like his flavors, the décor is bold with a wide-open dining room, diamond patterns repeated along the bar and floor, and large disk-shaped lights. Flay is known for his focus on regional dishes, and the restaurant delivers with entrees such as Gulf shrimp and grits and smoked chicken with hatch green chile spoonbread and black pepper vinegar sauce. The raw bar has selections ranging from crab-coconut and shrimp tomatillo to yellowtail poke with Hawaiian flavors.

Life is full of upsets, many of which can affect people deeply. Job loss, bereavement, marital breakdowns, debt, ill-health—just a handful of examples. Out there are people who appear more able than others to bounce back. It's not that they feel the effects of adversity any less deeply it's just that they have a certain quality, one we term resilience.
There's nothing particularly special about resilience except of course its protective effects against stress. So when I say nothing special, I'm referring to the fact that very ordinary skills can be applied by anyone in order to develop resilience. In this post I'm looking into the ingredients that, when combined, appear to make resilience what is it:
Optimism: Perhaps the most significant resilience skill, and one that can be developed. Think of optimism as a tendency to see favorable outcomes. As an optimist your glass will be half full. As a pessimist it will be half empty.
Empathy: is about putting yourself in other people's shoes. You see and feel the world as they experience it. Empathy is essential for building relationships and relationships are important when support is needed.
Emotional Regulation: is about keeping our emotions in check. If you've ever had cause to regret the things you've said or done it is likely these have come about because you've let your emotions take control. Empathy helps us see things from another's perspective but we can also learn to regulate our emotions through practices like mindfulness or other forms of meditation.
Causal Analysis: refers to getting to the root cause of a problem and this helps us both understand and focus attention on possible helpful changes. Causal analysis requires some depth of thought and use of the word why? For example, why did I just lose my cool? (because I'm frustrated). Why am I frustrated? (because I'm stressed) Why do I think I'm stressed - what are the signs of stress? And so forth.
Self Control: is about coping with uncertainty and not make snap judgments or behaving impulsively.
Self-Efficacy: refers to your belief in yourself. Self-efficacy is about having the confidence to take a course of action that will ultimately solve problems.
Action: may refer to a number of possibilities. It may be turning to others for support or advice or it may be about following some other path. Action is about doing something rather than nothing, but it is based upon weighing up costs and benefits before settling on something.
In subsequent posts I'll look more deeply into each of the components I've listed, what they mean, and how they can be developed.

Jose 'Gollito' Estredo (Fanatic/North Sails) has smashed his way back to the top spot, fighting his through the rounds to twice-beat his Fanatic/North Sails teammate Marcillo Browne (Fanatic/North Sails). Showing nerves of steel with a battery of tricks to match, Estredo punished his nemesis in two grueling finals.
In the women's battle, World-Champion Sarah Quita Offringa (Starboard/NeilPryde) never wavered despite a gallant effort from Daida Ruano Moreno (North Sails) in Pozo-esque conditions.
The battle ground was hardened with nuclear conditions that caused havoc amongst the sailors. Thread-bare flags ripped from their posts, while cyclonic gusts trampled through the judges tower, scarring the steel structure, and forcing a break in competition.
The hellish gales were not enough to stop stand-out sailor Taty Frans (Starboard/MauiSails) using the time to hone his high-wind skills. The lion-hearted Bonairian put on a fantastic aerial display as he boosted vast backloops high above the turbulent seas.
Frans' fearless mind-set punished some of the biggest names in the world, as he took this dominant attitude forward, and charged through heats. Ian Mouro Lemos (JP/NeilPryde), Antxon Otaegui (JP/NeilPryde/MFC), Anthony Ruenes (Tabou) and Nicolas Akgazciyan (Starboard/Gun Sails) were cast aside without second thought in arguably the most competitive and arduous heats of the day.
Taty showed a ruthless spirit as he even put brother Tonky Frans (F2/Gaastra) to the sword despite Tonky pulling out massive forward loops. Taty finally met his maker when he came across Estredo who had been watching in earnest.
Having sailed seven punishing rounds, Frans' mettle was tested, and an outstanding display by the World Champion Gollito Estredo, saw the end of a heroic run. Kiri Thode (Starboard/Gaastra) was the only remaining challenger who stood between Estredo and a place in the final.
At all times, their heat was nail-bitingly close, Thode showing glimpses of brilliance throughout nailing a triple spock as the heat entered the final minute. However, in the dying seconds, Estredo pulled off a brilliant air chacho, landing with such brutal force that he transcended physical limitations and claimed the fantastic stunt.
A battle for glory ensued as Estredo faced Browne, Gollito having to win twice to seize the event crown. The spectators were delighted as the two heavyweights locked horns in a dramatic encounter that saw Browne nail a clew first puneta, and a flawless air funnel thus taking an early lead. There was no room for error as Estredo raised the roof with a sickeningly clinical air chacho, unquestionably the move of the event.
Estredo had done enough to win the first test, and he never showed signs of weakness as he entered second final. The steel-nerved duo continued to impress as they busted vast stunts meters away from dry reef. An impossibly fast burner supported a switch-double-funnell in the dying throes of the heat, gave Estredo the edge. The defending champion had stamped his mark on the fleet, once again proving his dominance in this discipline.
Mention must also be made for gallant performances by Andy Chambers (JP/NeilPryde), Andre Paskowski (Fanatic/North Sails), Anthony Ruenes (Tabou) and Leo Ray (Naish/Naish/MFC) that saw them climb up through the ranks in today's epic event.
The women's double was no stranger to action, with the Moreno Twins dominating the first rounds, while Nayra Alonso (Fanatic/Severne) and Sylvia Alba Orozco (MFC) sailed superbly through to the top eight. An unsympathetic draw saw Iballa Ruano Moreno (North Sails) face Daida Ruano Moreno (North Sails) in a staggering early clash.
The two threw themselves into courageous stunts, each landing clean flakas, massive backloops and stalled forwards.
Daida made the most of the familiar conditions, ending the heat on top after a perfect one footed backloop. The Canarian local charged through against Alonso, Laure Treboux (Fanatic/North Sails) and Yolanda Freites de Brendt (Fanatic/North Sails).
Alas, even the on-form Junko Nagoshi (Tabou/Simmer Style/Dakine) couldn't stop mighty Moreno on her charge for the final, where she was to come up against the formidable Sarah Quita Offringa (Starboard/NeilPryde) once more.
Their two styles seemed worlds apart as the finalists took to the water. Offringa's effortless, feline poise disguised the rugged environment as she gracefully executed a flurry of moves, whilst Moreno's fearless pushloop-tweak attempt and powerful flaka combination defined a different approach.
With refinement and certainty, Sara Quita conducted an orchestral display of freestyle trickery, leaving Moreno on the ropes, struggling for a foothold as the seconds ticked away. Once again, Offringa had proved herself a worthy adversary to even the world's finest windsurfer, as she beamed back to the beach to await her coronation.
As the event heads in to its ultimate day, the two champions have already been crowned. An exceptional performance by both Estredo and Offringa has sent a clear message resounding to windsurfing's elite: to win, you will need to be better than perfect.
