What Girls & Guys Said3168
I believe if your open minded and be confident you will find love. You are a beautiful women because all women are. One thing about guys is they all want love just like you and all men have a type of women they want. My friend use to make fun of me because I would choose shy tomboyish girls over what a lot of guys think the perfect women should be. My perfect women is intelligent first a little shy with little or no make-up. The saying there is someone for everyone is absolutely 💯 true. The guy or gal your looking for is headed straight to you and when your not thinking about it is when he or she finally runs directly into you. I quit looking when I was in high school and I looked up one day and there she was I said a awkward hello and went about my day thinking about her all day at the end of the day she came up to me and said would you like to go out and we stayed together through high School college and got married but if you get the perfect person for you things can always happen we had twins and she past when they were 16. So even though I'm stuck in the world without my ❤ I got to live a lot of my life with my real true love. The perfect women made just for me. Yours are on the way if you don't believe that then you will never believe but they are headed your way anyways!!!
Don't give up.
I only had a couple of 'girlfriends' before I met the woman who would become my wife. I started seeing a friend's sister when I was 18 and that was my first girlfriend. We dated on/off for 3 years or so. Then I was single for 11 years. I met my 2nd girlfriend when I was 32 but we only dated for a year.
When I turned 35 I had a vasectomy because I figured my chances of finding life-long love had passed me by.
4 months later I met a wonderful woman and within 2 years we were married. That was over 12 years ago and we're still happy newlyweds.
I repeat, Don't give up!
You can for sure find love. You just have to know what you are looking for.
My best advice would be to talk and flirt more with people. Get your self used to engaging with people. Find the people that interest and ask your self why.
Go on dates if you want, have sexual encounters if you want. They are great ways to build experience.
My higher recommendation is build friendships where you can discuss your love lives openly with each other. A support network that you can talk to is fantastic and will help you learn who you are and what you want.
Finding someone is easier if you know what you are looking for. If you decide you want to look for love.
No not everybody.
My uncles brother. Is 54. A virgin and lives alone. He was always living together with his mom untill she passed away.
I dont see him. find love. Because he works and in his free time he's always at home. Never does any efforts.
So basically you have it a little bit in your own hands.
You have not dated before so ofcourse you are not used to it. But get used to it. Try dating. Open yourself just little by little. Try talking to guys on dating apps or so if you have troubles personal dating
In order to find something, you have to look for it.
It's like asking if everyone will find an ocean. They won't if they never leave Kansas. In other words, they have to try.
When we try we often fail. It's called trial and error. Failure can be painful and disappointing, but it isn't bad. We learn from our failures.
So in order to find love, we have to be willing to take chances. It's improbable that the first person someone meets will wind up being their true love.
Prince Charming rarely rides up and sweeps up the beautiful maiden to take her to live in the castle where they live happily ever after.
But true love does exist. And it's available to anyone, because it is not external. It is a belief. It is something we carry within our hearts if we choose to.
So the first thing one has to do to find true love is to truly believe that it exists. One has to be capable of loving before they can be loved.
You are young and under 18. I have a bit of social phobia and it was worst when I was a teen. I'm not very social in general. I rarely hang out. I have a boyfriend.
If a social weirdo like me has a boyfriend, you certainly will too, sooner or later.
No - if we're talking romantic love, obviously not everyone finds that.
So far, I have yet to find it, and I'm a lot older than most when it comes to having found any real romantic love. Most people who want to find it and who live in certain areas will probably find it a lot earlier than I have - not that I'm saying these are "permanent" or last. I think most people by 40 have found a "real love" even if they haven't kept it going (or "fell out" of love) after.
You are still very young, and have a lot of time left to find love. You don't have to be good at dating or good at talking to guys to find love. And also, as time goes on, you will get better at communicating with guys, and will get more comfortable dating.
Everyone is capable of finding love, but that doesn't mean it's always going to happen, because people are also capable of making bad choices. I wouldn't say you have to start dating, but you could try to get more comfortable talking with guys. You have plenty of time so don't rush it.
Yes. But more like "Love will find you". I learned people will never find love while looking, but rather it comes when you are not and you least expect it. Sometimes when you are working on yourself. The world we live in is rather odd sometimes like that
I personally am a devoted Catholic who went to a catholic school and raised in a Catholic Church. On that note, I try my best to believe that God dose have a special plan for every individual and that would include reserving the right guy/girl eventually for them to meet. And to help them build their strength more and more as the years lead up so they will be ready for the moment.
Personally I actually sort of noticed that in my though. I sure had a lot of issues with bullying back in elementary and even early high which left me very very shy in general and always feeling low, around ages 15, 16 and even 17 I did think quite a bit that I probably am just too messed up to ever find love because of my mental scars but as I got older and was able to find a job, I did eventually build my confidence back up quite a bit from when I was a teen and all the memories of bullying are really fading. So I do feel that God is helping me there and will continue
people say everyone finds love, but eh, personaly to me i think its only some people, because personally to me even i can't find love bc how i naturally am and girls just seem to distant themselves away from me really quickly, some people just can't find love it seems like,
I don't believe everyone finds love eventually. There is someone for everyone, but it doesn't mean that everyone will find that someone. The world is pretty vast... You actually don't have to talk to guys to find anyone though. It isn't like you're expected to initiate anything.
Despite your lack of dating experience, you can still get into it.
I'd like to believe so but there are things that happen in life that might prevent it from happening, Such as illness or an early death. But besides those things i think what prevents people from finding love is not giving themselves time to find who they are or time to heal from past relationships or constantly jumping from one relationship to the next.
Love? That can be defined in so many ways. I loved the men I lead in the military, they were my brothers. I love my best friend, and lamented when he got married, because I knew his wife would now be his best friend. I love my ex, even if she doesn't love me, I am happy I once knew her, and her beauty is in this world. And I lobe myself, with all my faults and successes.
I know the odd people who don't do relationships. So not everyone does. There is more to life believe it or not. Lol. The secret to finding true love is to focus on building who you are, your craft, carrier and studies. You don't need to find love, my friend, it kind of finds you. Good luck and i wish you the best.
Same here , given up on love,
But i am still waiting blindly for someone to come into my life.
Sometimes it's like a part of me thinks given up or sometimes it's like no , I ll find someone
Or even if it doesn't, traveling alone to some other places, getting drunk every night at a club, or just working my ass of in some software industry, who knows what.
Yes I do but only if you are open to it and know that it doesn't always happen instantly but with patience and letting yourself be open and vulnerable with someone. Can be very scary... but without the ability to be hurt then love won't happen!
You will find love when you least expect it. I have heard many times from friends that as soon as they gave up on love and stopped looking that it found them. Life is crazy sometimes. Be open to meeting new people, get out there and just be yourself. I think you will be surprised how many guys think you are amazing and want to be with you.
I think everyone that *looks* for love finds it eventually. But if you're a hermit, your dream guy is highly unlikely to march into your house and sweep you off your feet and into a relationship. Plus if you're still a teenager I wouldn't worry about it, dating is fun but you got time if you're not interested yet. Also it's pretty unlikely you'll find a serious relationship before 18
no I don't. I don't think I'll find one either.
well on the bright side, you're not even 18 yet, you're still young so don't lose hope. it's way too early for that. just try to open up yourself to more people. everyone has to start somewhere.
you can't judge that you won't ever find love if you're still under 18
you still have a lot of time ahead of you to either find it or not
love is a game. you could win or lose. Or never play it cause you're afraid of it. The only way to win it is to know the strategies to win the game.
Nowadays people cheat just in order to talk with peers about he/she had won many games in the past. The more the better.
Obviously, not everyone is like that.
SO, if you're talking about finding true, it probably still exists but it'll be hard to find it.
You are under 18. How could you be used to dating? Be patient. You'll get over this. Call us back if you haven't found anyone at 30.
Finding love is one thing but making it work is another. Just as long as people work for it to make it last than they definitely found the right person to be with.
Fuck no. Obviously there's more and more guys that just don't find it for a long time and then kill themselves -- firmly stamping out the possibility of a happy ending.
I try to look on the bright side, but the truth is that not everyone has a prince/princess charming to come rescue them. Life can suck, but even after it's pushed you down and torn everything away from you, the least you can do is stand back up and run to get back what it took. If you find love you do, if you don't you don't. And you don't need to talk to guys to find love. Love can come out of the most unexpected places, including the bathroom. I know it sounds weird, but it's true.
Honestly your probably right if girls don't talk we can't tell which girls want a boy and which don't in this day and age no but in the past i'd say yes.
Its not like that if you talk with boy than and than you can find your love, love is kind of feeling which doesn't require any terms and conditions for happening , love is naturally..
You will understand this later..😊
Yes if guys and girls didn't play all these damn games. Waiting days to reply and all these things just makes the other person run and you end up ruining a potential relationship that could've been great
No, I don't believe that at all. I don't see any logic or rationale in that.
I imagine a lot of people don't. You're still a kid according to your profile. Life is really just beginning for you.
99% of the time yes. But there are some people who just don't want it or they are horrible and don't deserve it
You're under 18 girl XD You have all the time in the world.
No... know few guys in their 70s who never found anyone.
no, i explained this bit already in someone's opinion last week.
Lesser good looking people are more likely to not find a loved due to the simple fact that they are not good looking. Yea sure, there are many that still do but that's in the minority. That is why i don't agree with the saying "there's someone for everyone" because there is not. If there really was, then every guy would have a partner. And if every guy had a partner, then maybe just maybe society would be less miserable. But because the majority of the time, women are more drawn to looks and or money. Either that, or both, the personality bit comes later, and still they would stay with that said good looking guy no matter the abuse or cheating or whatever. You see it all the time that the girl or woman still goes back to that same douche, or keeps holding on to them simply because he's a poster boy that she can post pics with cos why would they post pics with not so good looking guy to embarrass themselves. Or they stay cos of his money. Hey may be ugly, but if he got money though, then they tend to make an exception. This is all based on what I have noticed ok. Surely someone else's analysis will be different and whatnot lol.
I m also incapable of finding love just because I never interacted to girls due of shy n fear of getting rejected.
I m 23 n still single
Yeah, love is part of the human experience, and you can have it too if you just get out of your comfort zone a little and live it up.
Na you will find someone, you have plenty of time, if anything shoot for friends, but keep in mind always stay focused with yourself first
You are so young! Give it time and stay away from creepy older guys. Trust me, most are predators if they are 20 or older and going after high school kids
No, I don't think everyone does and to think that they must be really naive.
Nope. There is not someone just saved for you. That is ridiculous.
Hmm you're still young guys your age only look for one time hook ups most of them at least. You still have time
No. It's possible to never find it. Especially if you don't do anything. It's hard enough to find someone anyway.
100percent... one day or another it will happen... just be ready for it and don't force love
No I do not, many simply settle for what they get in order to not be lonely.

Measles vaccinations take place in Reykjavik
Parents of children aged 6 - 18 months in Reykjavik have been urged to have them vaccinated against measles. The directorate of health is offering measles vaccinations to children and adults born after 1970 following recent cases of measles in the city. Five cases of measles have been reported since February 18th.
The health authorities have said that mostly Icelandic children have turned up for vaccinations as perhaps parents of non-Icelandic children have not read about the incentive and the measles cases in English.
So here goes: Measles vaccinations will be offered in Reykjavik health care centres between 12 and 15 tomorrow, Monday.

She specializes in designing mid-range to high-end spaces that are polished, yet comfortable, colorful, yet serene, and beautiful, yet durable. Now you don't have to wait until you're an empty nester to live in a home you truly love! Kelly's signature style ranges from traditional to transitional, and incorporates classical design motifs, global influences, fresh color, and unique pattern combinations. She eschews formulaic approaches to create truly original interior spaces with equal parts elegance, simplicity, and practicality. In addition to understanding the needs of busy families, Kelly also brings a business-like approach (with a healthy dose of humor!) to her work. She previously spent 11 years at advertising and digital marketing agencies in account management, working with Fortune 500 clients in a variety of industries. There, she developed her client-driven philosophy, creative vision, project management expertise, and attention to detail. Although she loved working in a creative business, after the birth of her first son, Kelly knew she did not want to return to agency life. But she wasn't ready to 'retire' just yet, either. A family member provided unexpected inspiration for a new career. She moved into a beautiful new home, but had delayed furnishing and decorating until her children were older. A new mom herself, Kelly could relate, and was sure that many other families did, too. When she asked Kelly if she ever considered pursuing interior design, the idea for Kelly Rogers Interiors was born. A certified architectural color consultant, and candidate for a certificate in Residential Interiors at the Boston Architectural College, Kelly is the author of the design blog Interiors for Families. She is an active member of IFDA and NKBA, and her work has been seen in The Boston Globe, Houzz, Wayfair.com, and several blogs and digital publications.

The Background to Community-based Conservation
David Western and R. Michael Wright
The focus of conservation concern and debate has changed throughout history in response to new problems, concerns, and knowledge. One approach, newly emergent, is community-based conservation, or CBC. Community-based conservation arises from within the community—or at least at the community level—rather than internationally or nationally. The irony, of course, is that community-based conservation is hardly new. Communities down the millennia have developed elaborate rituals and practices to limit offtake levels, restrict access to critical resources, and distribute harvests (Croll and Parkin 1992).
Conservation in History
Traditional conservation practices revolved around sustaining food supplies such as fruiting trees or wildlife or protecting cultural symbols, whether totemic animals or religious sites. Conservation, in other words, originated in prehistory as practices that satisfied human needs, not as an altruistic concern for animals and plants. Despite the conservation practices of ancient times, as early as the Paleolithic period of the Stone Age the survival of the wild had more to do with low human population density, limited technology, and undeveloped or restricted markets than with self-imposed human restraint. When resources ran out, new lands for human habitation were always available.
Moving on in pursuit of fresh resources remained an option during the early Neolithic, even as pastoralism and shifting agriculture emerged. Movement, whether nomadic, transhumant, or wholesale relocation, enabled humans to optimize resource use and sidestep the consequences of overexploitation.
Movement didn't entirely obviate the need for conservation or inhibit compassion for other forms of life. Evidence from contemporary traditional societies suggests that a holistic sense of the world was common to most cultures. Many cultures and religions (including the faiths of Hindus, Buddhists, and native Americans) still retain a strong sense of the indivisibility of humanity and nature (Kemf 1993).
Where space was lacking and prey species had evolved in isolation from humans, conservation practices often were ineffective. Evidence from oceanic islands, for example, shows a sharp rise in extinction rates with the arrival of seafaring peoples (Olson 1989). Large-mammal exterminations in the New World during the Pleistocene bear evidence of overkill by early hunters (Martin and Klein 1984). Indeed, traditional conservation practices probably evolved more to maximize and allocate harvests than to conserve supplies (see MALUKU ISLANDS). Moreover, many traditional societies, given modern weapons, overhunt their prey, as discussed in NEOTROPICAL FORESTS. Traditional conservation beliefs, in other words, are not ready-made prescriptions for today's world.
The Rise of Modern Conservation
Populations expanded and grew more sedentary during the Neolithic. Historical evidence points to localized resource depletion and abandonment of agrarian and urban centers as early as 3000 B.C. (Southwick 1976). In classical Greece, Aristotle and Plato wrote almost as persuasively as the twentieth century's Aldo Leopold about landscapes withering under the onslaught of livestock. "What now remains compared with what then existed," Plato noted, "is like the skeleton of a sick man, all the fat and soft earth having been wasted away, and only the bare framework of the land being left" (Rodes and Odell 1992).
By pharaonic times, wildlife was scarce in Lower Egypt. The ruling elite there established the first recorded wildlife reserves in order to assure themselves of quarry on hunting expeditions. A similar devastation of wildlife was repeated across the Middle East, Asia, and Europe as populations grew, settled, and transformed the natural landscape for arable farming, husbandry, and forestry. The same issues arose time and again with each cycle of settlement and resource depletion: Who owns wildlife? Who owns the forest? Who owns the land?
The aristocracy almost invariably won such disputes and denied the peasants who lived on their land or around royal hunting preserves access to wildlife (Thomas 1983). Disputes over forest land and products were particularly contentious, culminating in the rise of forestry practices in eighteenth-century Europe (Nash 1967) and the first forest conservancies, established by the British Raj in India during the mid-nineteenth century (Vedant 1986).
By the 1850s, a new conservation sensibility emerged alongside the romantic movement in Europe and the United States (Nash 1967; Thomas 1983). Humanitarian concerns for the poor, the enslaved, and the disenfranchised soon spilled over into demands for ethical treatment of animals. By 1869, expanding sensibilities led John Stuart Mill to advocate the preservation of species for their own sake, independent of their utility for humans (Thomas 1983).
The rise of a modern conservation consciousness and conscience gathered momentum in the late nineteenth century, as the wilds disappeared and rural communities became urban. Forest reserves, national parks, and hunting laws familiar to twentieth-century conservationists came into being, although nineteenth-century motives were decidedly more political and utilitarian than preservationist. The question of who owned wildlife and who had the right to shoot it, for example, intensified and became closely tied to egalitarianism in the United States and, to a lesser extent, in Europe (Tober 1981). Early national parks mostly were intended to save natural monuments and open space for recreation rather than to preserve vignettes of nature (Runte 1979).
Sustainable use nevertheless was the best way to preserve nature, according to U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt's chief forester, Gifford Pinchot. Pinchot, the self-proclaimed founder of American conservation, advocated efficiency and prudence in the profitable and sustainable use of natural resources. Conservation, in this new doctrine, was "the application of common sense to the common problems for the common good" (Shabecoff 1993). Stripped of its rhetoric, Pinchot's sustainable-use policy signaled President Roosevelt's intention to restrain big businesses' abuse of public lands.
The sustainable-use doctrine also lent legitimacy to efforts to conserve land for the public good. The movement gained an aura of scientific respectability in later years, when mathematical population models were used to calculate maximum sustained yields for natural-resource harvests (Holt and Talbot 1978). But the very pragmatism of Pinchot's wise-use conservation proved abhorrent to the spiritualists and romantics led by preservationist John Muir. The first salvo signaling a deep rift in the conservation movement was about to be fired.
The Diversification of Conservation
The standoff first arose over plans to dam and flood Hetch Hetchy Valley within Yosemite National Park to provide water for San Francisco. Roosevelt and Pinchot came down on the side of exploitation and Muir on the side of preservation. The gap between pragmatists and preservationists widened after World War II, when the archdruid of modern preservationism, David Brower, assumed the directorship of Muir's Sierra Club and opposed dams in Dinosaur National Monument and the Grand Canyon (Shabecoff 1993). In later years, the split widened further when the animal rights and deep ecology movements surfaced and began to champion the interests of species and nature on ethical and moral grounds (Nash 1989).
The preservationists had reason to be skeptical. Impressive as early conservation successes had been in the United States, powerful commercial counterforces waged war on the preservationists. These forces were behind the introduction of laws and policies that encouraged, mandated, and often subsidized the private exploitation of public water, land, timber, minerals, and fisheries (Wilkinson 1992). The underlying goals, which foreshadowed similar resource policies elsewhere, were to boost the United States' national economy, encourage settlement, and strengthen international trade. Once the forces of utilization were unleashed, however, they ran on, blind to ecological limits and environmental destruction. In many other cases, society's ability to sustainably manage living resources ranging from wild species in the Peruvian rain forest (see AMAZON) to trochus shells in Indonesia (see MALUKU ISLANDS) also has proved illusory (Talbot 1993).
Preservationists scored victories in 1908, with the introduction of the wildlife refuge system in the United States, and with the establishment of a series of game reserves and parks in Africa at much the same time. In the developing world, conservation by and large became the state's responsibility, both during and after the colonial era.
State policies and legislation both regulating the use of natural resources and protecting nature continued apace, however, throughout the early part of the twentieth century as population and commerce burgeoned. The rationale echoed those common to Britain's Indian conservancies and Roosevelt's national forests: commercialism and local interests were said to cause environmental destruction inimical to the state. Using this well-honed argument, governments intervened time and again to secure land and resources in the larger interest of society. State land ownership and conservation became unquestioned norms, whether or not they were called for or worked.
Renewable-resource use and preservation have served the environment well, but neither approach has proved sufficient. Both often have fared badly in the face of population growth, poverty, and commercialism. At one extreme, international forces such as trade and economic incentives undermine conservation efforts. At the other, government indifference and incompetence—often intensified by commercial greed, nepotism, corruption, and local hostility—have swelled the tide of destruction. Finally, both utilization and preservation policies falter wherever land tenure and access rights are ill defined. The problem is most acute in areas where national policies deprive local communities of the right to use the resources on their own land. The resulting us-versus-them rush to harvest is the root of resource depletion.
The weaknesses in Pinchot's and Muir's philosophies raise the question of whether prevailing policies, which isolate the interests of local communities from those of the state, are the only or even the best ways to go about conservation. A countertrend, based on the belief that local participation in decisions and benefits could reduce hostility toward conservation efforts, began to emerge in the late 1960s and 1970s (see AMBOSELI). The resulting first small steps in the direction of community participation in conservation were hastened by several developments.
Prelude to Community-based Conservation
The first development involved mounting threats to the environment in the face of careless technology, consumerism, and the population explosion. Rachel Carson's Silent Spring (1962) and the Ehrlichs' Population Bomb (1968) alerted the public to these threats. Earth Day 1970 made environment a household word in much of the world, and the surrounding issues later gained political recognition through the United Nations Conference on the Global Environment held in Stockholm in 1972. Recognition paid off: International conservation conventions mushroomed in the years that followed.
Despite some progress, conservation efforts still revolved around saving high-profile species and habitats. This was to change in the next decade, once the oil crises instilled conservation in Western consciousness and conservationists broadened their horizons to encompass biodiversity and biological processes (IUCN, UNEP, and WWF 1980). Conservation's expanded horizons stretched far beyond parks onto rural lands, where the ultimate threat to biodiversity lay. Just how conservation was to be tackled in rural areas was an issue that remained disturbingly vague, invoking the aspirations of future generations while ignoring the problems of the rural poor (Western 1984).
The second precipitating factor involved grass-roots development. The centrally planned, capital-intensive aid projects begun in the 1950s and based on both altruism and self-interest had done little to alleviate poverty and income disparity in the developing world, despite the grandiose dams, irrigation projects, power stations, roads, and industrial developments that resulted. Integrated rural development (IRD) projects became fashionable but, again, failed with disconcerting regularity. The causes included continued centralization of planning and overly ambitious projects. The grass-roots approach, in contrast, focused on participation and local aspirations (Chambers 1983). To a significant degree, small-scale projects based on resource use did emerge during this period, thus laying a foundation of experience for community-based conservation.
The grass-roots approach recognized rural communities' dependence on sustainable use of natural resources such as soil, water, grazing land, forest products, and wildlife. This recognition conceded the case long made by the Pinchot school. What had been missing in Pinchot's approach, according to rural sociologists, was a local say and stake in resource use. Free to define their own priorities, local communities, in theory, would develop at their own pace and in their own way. They would learn their own lessons and build up their own skills in everything from health care and education to water management and communal forestry (Uphoff 1985).
Grass-roots development was not an unqualified success. The 1970s oil crisis, in particular, put severe economic strain on developing countries. Recently, however, the grass-roots approach has matured and come to play an ever larger role in development programs around the world (Durning 1989; Hirschmann 1993).
The third precipitating factor involved the human rights and indigenous peoples movements. Both drew attention to disenfranchised rural communities such as the Yanomami in Brazil and the Aboriginals of Australia (Berger 1979; Miller 1993). Internationally, developing countries' claims of North-South inequality led to demands for a new world economic order based on redistribution of wealth. Radical grass-roots organizations promoted populist movements as an alternative to government assistance (Hellinger, Hellinger, and O'Regan 1988). As a result, groups that linked social justice for ethnic minorities with environmental health became increasingly vocal.
Environmentalism and Democracy
The upshot of these convergent developments was a heightened sensibility about the environment and the interests of local people. A shift away from the elitism that had dogged the largely urban and Western preservation movement finally was under way. As much as anything, the shift acknowledged the fact that the fate of most of the earth's biological diversity lay in the hands of poor people in the Third World. Conservation and development no longer were John Muir's irreconcilable forces on either side of the divide. In a startling turnaround from the protectionism of earlier conventions, the theme of the Third World Parks Congress of 1982 was CONSERVATION FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT. The published proceedings drew on a handful of case studies to show how protected areas could contribute to human welfare and increase security in the process (McNeely and Miller 1984). The emphasis was still decidedly on buffering parks, but the move from preservation to multiple use of protected areas was clearly under way.

In the second of 4 lessons in this series, Jerry finishes construction of the buildings with a dynasty brush making sure to vary the sizes of the buildings, the height and location of skyscrapers and closely observing & manipulating the negative space between the structures. The use of eye stoppers is critical in this painting as with landscapes to control the focus on the city, as is the placement of script brush trees along the shoreline and overlapping some of a few of the building silhouette. As Jerry creates the horizon line of buildings, he duplicates their shape and negative space as a reflection in the water.

Workers and animal experts are keeping a close eye on the wellbeing of a seal which has been lying by a stream in Tauranga's industrial area.
The seal, believed to be 70kg-plus, was spotted wandering through Judea last week. Read more here.
At the time, workers said the sea animal appeared to be a little lost, but happy. This morning, however, workers were worried for the seal's health.
Tauranga Diesel Specialists workshop supervisor Graham Hayes noticed the seal had not moved for a few hours from the back of his workshop near a stream.
"He looks a little sad. Dogs have been sniffing at him and he hasn't moved," Hayes said.
"I think he might be on his last legs."
Hayes said he had phoned the Department of Conservation and SPCA.
Karl McCarthy from the Department of Conservation Tauranga office said it received several reports about a seal in the area.
"There was some public concern this seal might have been unwell although the seal appeared to be in good health," he said.
"Its normal for seals to be sneezing or coughing, have weeping eyes and do a lot of lying about."
McCarthy said while seals were associated with the ocean they often appeared up river mouths and in freshwater environments for periods of time.
He said if people were fortunate enough to see a seal the Department of Conservation asked people not to feed them and keep their distance.
"They might look placid but can still deliver a nasty bite," he said.
The public should call 0800DOCHOT if there was concern for the seals or public's safety.
The Department of Conservation and local business will continue to monitor the individual.

The Leafs had a young defense--including Jim Benning, Fred Boimstruck, Bob McGill and Craig Muni--and were forced to use the young blueliners too much, too soon. But Manno rose to the challenge and enjoyed a 50-point season--the best of his career. He was chosen to play in the NHL All-Star Game in 1982. But that was the sole season Bob Manno would play in Toronto.
He played in Italy the next season, only to be lured back to the NHL to play for Detroit. But after two seasons with the Red Wings, Bob Manno left to play in Italy once again, beginning with the 1985-86 season. In fact, Manno played for Italy in the 1992 Olympic Winter Games.

Avengers: Endgame's confusing time travel is explained by an interactive map. Following the events of Avengers: Infinity War, Earth's Mightiest Heroes, alongside a handful of their new allies band together to go back in time in order to collect all six Infinity Stones and undo Thanos' (Josh Brolin) snap. Split into four (five after the Morag and Vormir teams separated) groups, they go to different parts of the MCU where the elemental crystals popped. The catch was, they have to be able to bring them back to where they were to not create a slew of alternate realities. Long story short, the Avengers succeeded in their endeavor with Captain America (Chris Evans) returning all stones to their respective timelines. It seems like a simple concept, but there are a slew of consequences for their time-hopping adventures.
Marvel Studios kept story details of Endgame close to their chest leading up to their release, but it was a known fact that it would involve going back in time thanks to leaked set photos. What's surprising was the way they handled the rules of time travel. Throughout the three-hour blockbuster, they repeatedly emphasized how time warping works in the MCU - unlike other films that dealt with the same idea, the franchise established that changing a moment from the past doesn't have a ripple effect to the future, instead, it only creates a splinter in the timeline. This is the reason why the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton) was adamant that Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) returned all six stones to their original locations. Thinking about it can still be confusing, thankfully one fan made it much easier to understand the concept through his interactive chart.
Creator Oren Bell shared an interactive map on his website that illustrates how Endgame's time travel worked. On top of that, he also included the potential alternate timelines that the heroes created during their journey. In the intro, the creator said that "assuming all goes well, events will play out in these alternate realities the same way they did in prime reality. These new branched timelines would have their own snap, their own time travel, and their own fractal branches." However,"not all the branches created have their own snap." The guide is straightforward and easy to understand, and hopefully will clear out some of the confusion for fans.
Swinton recently revealed that Endgame reshoots changed the rules of time travel in the MCU. Fully knowing that the concept is often tricky to execute, the filmmakers opted to add a visual timeline that would help the audience better understand how it works in the franchise. While this helped the film explain how the Time Heist worked, the concept was convoluted as it is that changing course in the middle of production may have made it murkier. Proof of just how complicated the notion is, even directors Joe and Anthony Russo and writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely failed to agree on how it would actually work in the film.
Whether or not the movie's time travel works remains to be a favorite topic of conversations among fans. Bell's interactive map implies that the scene with old Captain America at the end of the film is actually from a different timeline, which doesn't really make sense. Ultimately, it's up to Marvel Studios to make sense of what Avengers: Endgame's time travel means for the future of the MCU. As of now, fans can just take it as it is, but it's the responsibilities of the upcoming films and TV shows to explain the remaining anomalies from the ensemble project - that's if they'll ever address them.

Where can I buy cheap, good quality clothes?
Where to buy a good microvawe? Is there a store, online or not, where there clothes are very cheap, and a decent quality?
They came up with Zady, which guarantees all their clothing and accessories are sourced local to where they are manufactured, and that the production process is sustainable. The other main way? The Real Real gathers top-notch, previously-owned designer products from women around the country, then re-sells the goods at steep discounts. Who says you have to buy the quality clothes you so covet? Le Tote lets you rent high-end clothing and accessories, which you order online and arrive on your doorstep inside—you guessed it—a tote bag.
Hukkster is essentially a sale aggregator—it scans some of the biggest and best designer names and retail stores out there to alert you when your favorite items go on sale. After all, the only thing better than buying affordable quality clothes is buying expensive clothes at a discount.
The just-launched e-commerce site StyleSaint aims to totally disrupt the fashion industry by offering direct-to-consumer clothing at wholesale prices. This farm-to-table movement in food is also happening in clothing. Share Facebook Pinterest Twitter Tumblr.
Cheap Good Quality Clothes. You can find good quality clothing for women twistedclosetclothing. Go to your local Goodwill store. Sometimes they have good deals. Did you try shopping in outlet or factory stores? Where can i buy cheap good quality clothes over the internet? Where can i buy good quality but cheap clothes for a 14 year old? Is there any place in Greece where you can buy cheap quality clothing?
Cool quality clothe and also cheap. Why are pantyhose considered only for women?
This cheap, "disposable" clothing just didn't last, and into the donate pile it would go. Why Cheap Clothing Isn't Really Cheap I know how tempting it is to buy cheap clothing. Clothing retailers like H&M and Target have mastered the art of offering low-quality but still reasonably cool clothes. Quality clothes last longer for the money you spend, they're more comfortable, and they make you look and feel pretty good while you wear them. Best of all, you can find quality anywhere. It comes down to buying less mediocre stuff and using that money on a few nice things that last forever. You need good quality clothes and no expensive brand. I have good suggestion only for women & young girls brand that is SbuyS brand targets only young girls, women and kids too. Prices are cheap with good quality as per my experience. Brand is also former in women. You can try this brand. Having said that this brand only targets to India, not the world.

Join the mission to take the good news about Jesus (best news ever) to the people in this world who have never hear (unreached people).
Jesus said in Matthew 28:19, "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations." Yet have you considered the enormity of this task? The word for "nations" means "ethnicity" and today there are over 17,000 ethnic people groups, over 7000 of which are almost completely unreached with the gospel. That's over 3.14 billion people who have never heard the name of Jesus, who have no knowledge they have a Savior, and are living life without the hope only found in the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
During our missions week at CCC we will be inspired anew to continue the task and to be a relevant part of taking the best news ever to the far corners of our planet.

text: Another morning in the mountains of Lake Tahoe. There's even a few new inches of snow on the ground. The peculiar thing is that I'm not skiing it. Granted, I've enjoyed some 40-plus days on the slopes this season, but my motivations have made a definitive shift in the direction of Manuscript Across America. The first scroll signing event - the Lucidity Music & Arts Festival - is just nine days away. Nine days! With that in mind, I'm focusing my energy on the conversion of a massage table into a message table that will hold the glorious scroll - and on raising funds to support the journey. There have been plenty of moments of doubt during these months of preparation - moments where I look at a map of the country or my bank account statement or my dilapidated VW van - but there has always been an underlying feeling of belief in the project itself. A belief, quite simply, that the mission I'm taking on is a good thing. With that unshakeable conviction, I'm prepared for anything. Even if Manuscript Across America is the exact opposite of what I expect (what do I expect?), it will undoubtedly be an educational and beneficial experience for me personally. It will enable me to grow, one way or another, into a better human.

TL:DR – These are the Best Gaming Projectors:
- Optoma UHD60
- BenQ HT2150ST
- BenQ TK800M
- Sony VPL-VW695ES
- Epson Home Cinema 2040
- EUG Multimedia Projector
- Sony VPL-HW45ES
1. Optoma UHD60
Best Gaming Projector
The Optoma UHD60 offers the best value available for a 4K projector. For $1,600 you get a 3,840 x 2,160 resolution picture that can be up to 300-inches in size.
Our Pick
Optoma UHD60
On AmazonSee it
With 3,000 lumens of brightness, it'll also overcome almost any ambient light in your living room. Meanwhile, the projector's 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio will help dark areas of the image dark. You can't really ask for a more versatile or value-packed gaming projector for this price.
2. BenQ HT2150ST
Best Budget Gaming Projector
Our Pick
BenQ HT2150ST
On AmazonSee it
- UK readers: See it on Amazon (UK)
The 2,200 lumens provides plenty of light in a moderately bright room and, paired with its 15000:1 contrast ratio, will look stunning in a dark room. The best thing about the HT2150ST for gamers is its low input lag. When set to Game Picture Mode with Fast Mode enabled, lag is comparable to a television. It has excellent performance for the price, too.
Best 4K Gaming Projector
The JVC DLA-NX5 is the true 4K projector to get If you're setting up an epic home theater and you want the biggest and best-looking picture possible. Sporting a native 4,096 x 2,160 resolution, you can make your picture as big as you want without having to worry about losing detail.
Our Pick
On AmazonSee it
You also get one of the highest contrast ratios of 40,000:1 out of any projector from this unit, so you'll be able to experience darker blacks. It's 1,800-lumen peak brightness doesn't make this the brightest projector we've ever seen, but it's more than enough to make flashes of light in games and movies pop.
4. BenQ TK800M
Best Budget 4K Gaming Projector
4K projectors are still pretty pricey compared to 4K TVs, but if you're trying to go big on a budget the BenQ TK800M (read our review) is your best option. It's a little more affordable than most 4K units at $1,300, but you still get 10-bit color and HDR support.
Our Pick
BenQ TK800M
On AmazonSee it
What's more, this budget projector outputs 3,000 lumens so it'll work in most rooms even ones that are well lit. The BenQ TK800M's rated contrast ratio of 10,000:1 might be significantly lower than other projectors, but it has the latest a dynamic 0.47-inch DLP chip and a dynamic iris to strike the right balance between brightness and contrast while presenting rich colors.
5. Sony VPL-VW695ES
Best High-End Gaming Projector
There are plenty of 4K projectors on the market now, but Sony is one of the few companies that actually produce a true 4k projector. Most "4K projectors" use a pixel shifting (which involves flashes images multiple times) to simulate a 4K picture). the Sony VPL-VW695ES' native 4,096 x 2,160 pixels is far more impressive than the blown-up 1080p picture that most "4K units" produce
Our Pick
Sony VPL-VW695ES
On AmazonSee it
The 695ES supports HDR10 and HLG (for when the content actually becomes available). For gaming though, the input lag reduction option is only available in SDR. It only has a dynamic contrast ratio of 350,000:1 and a light output of 1800 lumens, so it's best in a room with minimal ambient lighting. But if you're spending nearly $10,000 on a projector, chances are your room is a dedicated theater with little to no ambient light bleed.
6. Epson Home Cinema 2040
Another Great Option

What to Look for in a Projector for GamingWhen looking to buy any display—be it a computer monitor, a flat-panel television, or a projector—there are basic specifications to keep in mind. Color accuracy, contrast ratio, and resolution combine to create a true-to-life and engaging image.
With gaming, another primary concern is a low input lag on the projector so you can be the frag-er and not the frag-ee. We recommend aiming for something below 35ms. There are of course a few more important necessities to keep in mind when it comes to projectors.
The room you plan to have your projector in, and more specifically the amount of ambient light in that room, can drastically affect image quality. If the projector doesn't output enough light, measured in lumens, the ambient light in the room can cause the picture to look washed out and dull. You'll lose definition in the blacks and colors won't seem as vivid. If your room lets in a lot of light you'll want a projector that outputs around 2500 lumens or more. A light-controlled room will be fine with a 1500-2000 lumen projector. No matter what avoid any unnecessary direct light on the displayed surface.
That displayed surface is another concern. While it is completely possible to display your projector on to a white wall, color and contrast will be affected. There are fixed (non-retractable) options like the Silver Ticket 100-inch STR-169100, and there are screens that are mounted to a separate stand that sits in front of a wall, or products for painting a screen surface directly onto your wall.
Having the screen sit in front of a wall causes you to lose a couple of feet of space, which is not ideal if space is at a premium. The paint option is a cool alternative for small living rooms but can be messy and finicky to apply. Plus, if you move it's difficult to take the entire wall with you. If you can afford it, we recommend just using a fixed screen.
Where you put your projector can also drastically affect your gaming experience. If it sits in a low position directly behind your couch you'll need to sit to one side to avoid any unintentional MST3K shadows. Plenty of ceiling mounts, like the VIVO Universal Mount, are available for under $20, but be aware you'll need to think about how you're going to run power and signal cables.
Projectors have a throw range that determines how near or far they need to be from the screen. If your room depth is limited, a short-throw projector needs only around four or five feet of distance to project a 100-inch diagonal image on the screen or wall.
