Article | Technology & Teachers
Yesterday, we talked of Technology Vs. Teachers. Today, we talk of Technology & Teachers.
A key idea, inherent in the title of that post was the potential of disagreement between technology and teachers. We asked if a teacher can ever be replaced by digital tools. While the answer is obvious, it does bring to fore, a few thoughts about the role of the teacher in today's classrooms.
eVeltio (the company behind this site) conducts various workshops with teachers, and without exception, we ask this question: Can technology replace teachers? While, we usually get a resounding negative, we hardly ever get reasons for why technology can never replace teachers.
Technology is not limited to the digital tools that we use today. The humble blackboard (not the LMS) came in sometime during the 16th century. Imagine, if you were a teacher then: you are used to a method of teaching, and now, you have a surface, where you can write, draw and create a context for your students. The sixteenth century teacher must have gone through some hesitation and wonder, then.
There ought not to be a Technology Vs. Teacher debate, ever. Like the blackboard, or the compass box, or the notebook, or the calculator, no technology has been able to replace the teacher. Over time, these tools have helped teachers teach better and enable learning. Most developed countries are using technology to good effect; globalisation allows everyone in the world to adopt these practices easily. Others have to catch up, or, where necessary – leap.
The Internet and other digital technologies are mere tools, same as the humble blackboard or the notebook. However, with the kind of connective, social, and collaborative power that the tools we have today, it seems that we are asking a lot more from the teacher. We are, but, not a lot.
We offer this, to the teachers who are (1) unaware what the role of technology is, in their work, and (2) still not clear how to make technology work for them. The first step is to embrace technology, even if you do not understand much of it. It's a tool, similar to other tools that you have been using for many years.
Save Time
A simple activity in your class, like attendance, can be automated using technology. A typical class in India has an average of 40 students per class. Calling out their names, confirming their attendance, can easily be reduced through the use of technology. Could save you twelve minutes. Many such repetitive activities can be easily automated, and improve teacher engagement in the classroom.
Each time, you have to draw an x-axis and a y-axis to explain an equation, you spend time drawing it on a conventional board. What if, all the equations that you want to explain to your class are available to you on demand? Over months and years, a teacher uses the same structures to help students explain concepts. If they are created once, and can be reused, it helps increase productive time and improve engagement with students
Let's consider a steam engine. How easy or difficult it is, to explain the working of a steam engine with static 2-d images in the textbook? Due to the proliferation of OER and other educational resources, explaining the mechanics of a steam engine has become easier than ever. We have videos, animations, cross-section simulations, and text to help us. All these resources are just tools; in learning – the engagement of the teacher with the student remain paramount.
Let's consider the steam engine again. Your colleague, who teaches the industrial revolution experiences the same struggle that you do. Would a joint class of history and science help? Can you, with the help of these tools develop a cross-curricular session? To help enhance learning, how can you use available media to interact in the classroom?
Develop Skills
We have, so far, talked a lot about how technology could help you in the classroom. How does it help you, as a teacher? Could you develop a PLE (Personal Learning Environment) for yourself? What are the sources of learning? How would you use social networks to connect with a global teacher audience?
Talk to us.
Have you, as a teacher, used technology as a tool and improved your performance in the classroom? We welcome ideas and would like you to share them with us. We invite you all to share experiences, contribute to our forums, and help build a community of global teachers. This network is open to all. We welcome your ideas and thoughts.

Sade is the anchor for Eyewitness News, which airs on WABC Channel 7 every weekday. She does this alongside Diana Williams at 5pm and 11pm with Bill Riter. Her full name is Folasade Olayinke Baderinwa. Apart from her news work, Sade is also a mentor; she, alongside major broadcasters and filmmaking companies, runs a program for young people called "Get 'Reel' With Your Dreams: The Inside Track". Since 2004, Sade has also been a leading figure in the campaign against careless driving.
Early childhood
Sade was born in a dysfunctional family but raised in a stable background. Her story begins with a father-mother separation while she was still a toddler. When her mother walked away, she spent time under the care of her dad until he too left her under the care of another person.
Sade was born on April 14 1969 at Baltimore, Maryland. The father is a Nigerian and her mother, a German.
At four years old, Sade's father introduced the young girl to the extended family of Edie House, his friend. For a long time, Sade could not pronounce Edie's name correctly; she used to call her "Edick".
Considering that Edick's big family had many other kids and a charming grandma (Eddie's mother) to take care of them, Sade continued with life as normal even when her dad moved back to Nigeria; he never came back.
Sade's adoptive family was not rich, especially at the early stages when her new mom had not yet secured a stable job. However, lack crossed path with Edie: she landed anchoring and public relations career at WBAL.
Naturally, somebody might say that Edie encouraged her daughter to get into the media industry; she however strongly refutes this, saying that there was never a day she told the little girl to pursue a specific career. That said, as a mother, she is proud that Sade followed her footsteps.
During her young age, Sade used to accompany her mother to the newsroom. This probably was her main source of interest in journalism, and the probable reason why she took media studies at the University of Maryland.
After graduating, she worked as a reporter for a couple of stations and as a production assistant for ABC channel.
Her first anchoring job was at WBAL TV, her mother's former workplace. After doing morning and noon shows for a while, she moved to WABC channel 7 in 2003.
Sade Experienced a terrible accident in April 2004 while at work. A Car rammed her, throwing her ten feet into the air before she landed in a ditch. Most of her bones, especially in the knees, hip and hands were crashed. She healed after surgeries and therapies.
Since resuming work in December 2014, Sade has been on the Eyewitness News.
Personal life
A while back, there were rumors that the 5 feet 6 inch tall Sade was dating Martin J. O Malley, the then mayor of Baltimore- a married man. The allegations fizzled off. Not much is known about Sade's relationship as at now.
Sade Baderinwa – Net worth and salary
Sade Baderinwa earns close to $900 thousand dollars and has a net worth of $5 million.

I do not often offer any insight about economics, but the other day I happened to be listening to a CNBC economist. What I heard him say with mine own ears was, "We haven't had a double-dip recession in 18 years, since 1981."
It is worth a chuckle, but one wonder, is basic math the problem?

In the UK we are to a great degree fortunate to be encompassed by so much greenery, particularly trees and having a tree at home is normal as they work as a fundamental element of a garden or even shrouded away in the corner to offer shade, paying little respect to where it is in the garden an extensive tree, with its shining leaves is wonderful thing. Trees give a place to play to kids and they are valued by grown-ups however there is one drawback that accompanies trees and that is their underlying foundations since they can be risky.go to this artificial grass installers Hertfordshire website for details
Trees are fabulous and superb however it's what they shroud underground that causes issues. When the roots start to show up at the surface they can cause a wide range of harm and they can murder grass to a great degree rapidly, they can transform shocking patio nurseries into appalling greenery enclosures overnight.
While trying to manage the issue many individuals endeavor to develop or lay turf over the roots however this is practically outlandish. Some pick to totally expel the tree yet an issue can be comprehended through utilizing artificial grass to high the roots.
It is workable for artificial grass to be set over the roots without causing hurt while the roots are probably not going to make any issues the artificial grass. There are different choices accessible, for example, utilizing mulch yet in a generally brief time this will vanish. Artificial grass can be laid up to the storage compartment of the tree without any worries about wear and tear which implies there will be no withering grass around the tree.
While the principle point is to conceal the roots, artificial grass will likewise back off the development of weeds. It is practically difficult to dispose of any sorts of weeds but since the artificial turf has an intense support, weeds can't bed into the dirt which makes it troublesome for them to develop.
Much the same as all plants, trees require water and warmth to develop, along these lines, in light of the fact that the fake grass works by protecting the roots it keeps them warm through the extreme winter months yet this is not perfect for those trees that are utilized to the British winters while additionally helping the dirt to hold dampness.
Artificial grass upkeep is requires however almost no and it stays looking great throughout the entire year. This means the grass does not remove any supplements or water from some other trees or plants in the encompassing zones. In any case, it might be significant that despite the fact that there is no compelling reason to water the artificial grass the underlying foundations of the tree will require watering so it is imperative to settle on beyond any doubt that your decision of artificial grass is as porous as could reasonably be expected.

Currently, there are a lot of professionals who choose to have their own online portfolio, even more, when it comes to a creative career as graphic design, brand design, production and video editing, design fashions, web development, etc. It can be quite useful to have an online portfolio where you comment your work experience and show your best projects.
Projects that you choose for your portfolio are essential and it is important to make a careful selection. However, there are other components that are also important as the layout, colours and typography course. In this article we mention some of these online portfolios, focusing on those who make good use of typography and even put more emphasis on it.
Gui Bento
This striking online portfolio contains animations and typesetting. Every time you scroll down animation is activated and you see how the text is moving. These flashy animations clearly express the movement that is associated with giving life to a brand through a website and is consistent with the value proposition of this designer.
The menu is also quite original. It has been used hamburger icon menu for more attention to be given texts. By activating the menu, it occupies the entire screen and each appears with a box like a ghost button is involved.
Björn Meier
This simple online portfolio uses simple sources. In the first glimpse, we can only see the title at large, while the background picture changes every few seconds. As we move down we can see the list of projects, also with the large typeface. Uses bold type to highlight the name of the customer or project while in normal style project type is specified. It's a simple way to capture the attention of visitors in the projects.
Sebastiano Garilli
Sebastiano Garilli has an online portfolio that makes proper use of white spaces. In the same homepage, the designer described as someone who loves the simplicity and focus on details, a feature that is tested to the naked eye in its portfolio.
The main pan tall azo uses a sans serif font with thick sticks, as expected, while in other sections the body text is a serif font. certain words are highlighted in the text body through colour and different styles.
Ruslan Siiz
The portfolio of Ruslan SIIZ greets us with a fairly simple start screen where you can see only the large name. The score of the source is much larger than usual and the location of it is rare. These two details make the typography call much attention, despite being simple.
As we move down, it moves typography and loses colour, so that it ceases to have much contrast with the background while we are browsing the available projects. It is an effective way to strengthen the brand, without obstructing navigation.
Alexandre Pidault
The portfolio of Alexandre Pidault takes another approach to providing a sample of the projects he has worked: rather than display them as background photos, places them in the foreground and the visitor can choose which projects you want to see on the main screen. Although it is only a preview of the latest projects, work as a link to view the entire project on their respective page. In this way, links are highlighted by the font and size that are striking enough to cause curious visitors.
Femme Fatale
The home screen of this study design greets us with an interactive text that looks like the background. Due to the low contrast between the background and the text, it is difficult to read, so mainly used as decorative elements and how to capture the attention of visitors.
In the projects section is also played with typography, photographs preview mode are used, but the fonts are items that attracted the most attention because of their size, even occupying more space than the preview images of each project.
Melanie Daveid
Melanie Daveid uses a typeface handwritten on the home page and an illustration on background. This same source is used for section titles. In this case, the screen is divided into two: on the left, the section title appears while on the right you can see the relevant information for each section. Since this source handwritten combined with a simple and quite legible sans serif, a good balance between the two is created. In addition, the handwritten font gives a more personal aspect to the entire website.
Lounge Lizard
The Lizard Lounge website uses large fonts like titles. They attract attention because they are larger than usual and combine well with the other typeface used for body text. It is an effective way to capture the attention of your visitors on particular texts. It also features large texts not only as a way to divide sections, but they are also visible when the cursor lingers over images of the portfolio. To maintain consistency with the rest of the design, the titles listed here also have a larger than usual.
Stereo Creative
Creative Stereo uses videos, photos and background colours as backgrounds in different sections of your site. In all these cases a sans serif titles font is used to improve readability. Typography is slightly rounder creating a more friendly and familiar atmosphere. Typography is also used in large on the menu for this use icon menu hamburger is done, when activated can access the menu across the screen.
In conclusion…
Typography is an essential element in any website. In these examples of online portfolios have been tested and have seen how typography can be used effectively and you can even convert it to an interactive main element as is done in some of these examples.

There's not a hint of shimmer so it doesn't give away that you're wearing a bronzer. The powder is really fine and goes on evenly and blends well, it doesn't dry your skin either. The brush it comes with is not the best for if you are doing your whole face but it's fine for touch ups and is really soft.
It comes in two colours and you can sheer it out with some pressed powder in the winter if you worry it's too dark.

New Flags Flying - Papua New Guinea
Between 1960 and 1990, strong winds of political change swept across the Pacific spreading the seed of self determination and independence. Broadcaster Ian Johnstone and his co-editor Michael Powles have captured this change in a series of interviews with this era's leaders from around the region. This week, Papua New Guinea.

Are all the guys on the internet perverted? Every guy that I have talked to in a chatroom are disgusting. All they care about is how you look, they don't talk about anything else. They want to know everything about your body. What the heck? I know that appearances are important, but aren't there any normal guys out there? Going on the internet and being preyed on like some piece of flesh really turns me off of guys! Do these guys actually get attention? If they do, how can girls do that to themselves? It makes girls look like dirt and the guy like a pervert. What a way to taint ones opinion of the oposite sex! Are there actually normal people on the internet? What about online dating? If that is what I get in chatrooms, is online dating the same? Is all the guys care about it just another fling and hot body? Is that why guys go on online dating sites?
Most Helpful Guy
I'm not like that, but I understand that there are people (both women and men) who are. Now, for dating sites, if you've been talking to someone for a while, and are about to meet in real life, it would make sense to know what the person looks like.
I suppose in some cases, it's to avoid the creeps. I sometimes would like to see who I'm talking to. if a girl has swear words shaved or has some sort of "KKK logo" tattooed into her skull, then she's not for me. Lol.
I DO belong to a dating site or two, but I'm not really obsessively looking. I suppose in some ways, it's easier to catch someone's eye than a few words because it's quick and visual. you don't go to a party and say "oooh, I bet she likes the things I do!" It's usually you look at their appearance, and THEN if you're really attracted, you are interested enough to get to know that person.
Past that, there are weirdos, just like anywhere in real life, but you have to know where to go to avoid them.
Don't take this next point to mean that I am blaming you, but I knew a girl who said "Every guy I date is just so kinky!" Well, that's because you're attracted to the guys who happen to think that way; you may not be searching for kinky guys, but for "gutsy, sexually experienced cocky guys," and you'll find those guys who are too abrasive in with the ones you are truly looking for.
You could want a quiet bookworm, and somewhere there's a creepy who's just "too quiet" and he stares and mutters under his breath. You could want a guy that's "loves kids" and somewhere, there's a pedophile who counts himself in that group. Unfortunately, you have to be careful and smart. But try not to label all guys this way.
Personally, I'm not that abrasive, and I don't really think like that. Then again, the way I grew up, I'm not searching for the same things necessarily that a lot of boys are looking for. There are plenty of other guys who think like I do.11|00|0
This is why I adore this man--you are a kewl dude! ;-) If I knew a great gal I'd hook you up!
Thanks for the comment, you sound like a normal guy, that understands why some people act the way they do:)
Awww, shucks. ::blushin'::
Darn it, A-R. Now you made me say a dumb thing like "shucks."

At some point, most of us will have the experience of looking around and wondering, "Where am I, and how did I get here?" The everyday drain of jobs that don't satisfy, relationships that no longer work, and habits we know aren't good for us can leave us feeling empty and disconnected. We might even believe that the lives we dream about are just that – a dream. So we feel stuck, scared, and not empowered to change the very circumstances we've created.
But that's not the case. Change starts with acknowledging that the life we're living doesn't line up with the life we want. From there, it's about letting go of fear and getting off autopilot. Why wait for someone else's permission or a mid-life crisis or a catastrophe to shift direction? We must remember instead that we all have choices, we just have to be brave enough to make them.
You Are Not Stuck shares raw insights and "aha" perspective to spark change, ranging from everyday breakthroughs to radical long-term personal transformation.
Change isn't easy, but it can be so worth it. Becky's writing empowers people to pursue the lives they dream of instead of the lives they feel stuck in.
You Are Not Stuck
Real choices for real change.
I'm Becky Vollmer — a mother, yoga teacher and writer. I'm also living proof that, despite feeling otherwise, we are not stuck in circumstances and patterns that neither serve nor define us. We are lucky to have choices; we just have to be brave enough to make them.
I was not immune to feelings of powerlessness and going nowhere, even as the view from the outside in told a much different story.
It wasn't always this way for me. Over the years, I've been stuck in the wrong marriage, stuck in the wrong job, stuck in bad habits. I was not immune to feelings of powerlessness and going nowhere, even as the view from the outside in told a much different story. So I said goodbye to relationships that didn't nurture. I traded a high-stress career speaking for others for a life in yoga pants. And when I'm not teaching on the mat, I'm writing in my own voice and speaking my own truth.
What's my job now? Translating the lessons learned along my journey so far to help others find their confidence… to realize that they, too, have choices… that they, too, are strong. I've made choices and changes to get closer to the life I want. You can, too.
The lives we want are absolutely possible — IF we can visualize our dreams, believe in ourselves, and commit to doing the courageous work necessary to make them come true. As a wise friend told me once, "We are lucky to have choices. We just have to be brave enough to make them." We are not stuck!

hmm the eternal question: lock the thread due to spamming of the form, or sticky it so people won't ask this silly question again?
Forum Rules
Global Rules
General Behaviour
DO NOTs
Username, Avatar and Signature Rules
Crossing the line into "offensive" territory is likely to get you asked to change your name, sig or avatar or to withdraw/delete posts. This will be done politely by the moderators. If you refuse to comply further action WILL be taken once started, ultimately leading to banning from the forums.
A key point: please attempt to use your brains. What is mild humour to you may well be deeply offensive to others. While we have no intention of acting as politically-correct "thought police", we are on the lookout for those things that can cause offense and, in some cases, are actually still illegal in some jurisdictions.
So people get the idea, some examples that would be considered offensive, numbered as above:
A simple rule-of-thumb: many Europeans find Nazi symbolism of any sort offensive; many Americans still find Soviet symbolism offensive. Engage your brain before using.
- Items changed, or highlighted for future attention, on 20 July 2013 are highlighted in yellow.
Global Rules
- Forum moderators may or may not be Tripwire Interactive staff members, but either way, please respect them, as they are the authority of the forums. Speaking to them with intentional spite will not be tolerated and may result in the loss of your forum privileges.
- Any decisions made by any member of staff or moderator are final and not subject to discussion. Doing so may result in a ban from the site. The owners of Tripwire Interactive Forums reserve the right to remove, edit, move or close any thread for any reason, as well as to remove access to the forums for any individuals with or without warning for breaches of the rules.
- If you have a complaint regarding another user, PM the appropriate moderators, or if you have an administrative issue, [RO]schneidzekk.
General Behaviour
- Use the search function before posting. Chances are your question has already been answered.
- Use a title that describes the content of your post. Don't use all caps or special characters to draw attention either in the title or the body of the post.
- Up to 10 emoticons are allowed in a post
- Political discussions are prohibited.
- Flaming - We do not tolerate abusive, malicious, personal attacks. You will be banned if you persist in this behavior.
- Trolls - Anyone deliberately antagonizing other forum users by posting 'flame bait' type messages is not welcome. You will be banned (possibly without warning depending on the severity of the issue) if you persist in this behavior.
- Personal insults (directed at anyone) will result in a ban. If the behavior is not corrected, it will be made more permanent.
- Constructive criticism is welcome. However keep in mind we (and other forums goers) may not agree with you. If you can't keep the conversation civil, you will be removed from the forums.
- The use of hyperbole, one liners, and images as part of a forum debate is likely to get you infracted. You have many ways to participate and be a constructive part of this community, even when you disagree.
- To make the highlighted bits above 100% clear to everyone, the following WILL NOT BE TOLERATED:
- Personal attacks, insults, antagonism of any forum-goers, moderators or Tripwire Interactive staff.
- Breaches of confidentiality and privacy of any sort.
- Any form of racism, bigotry or attacks on race, creed or color.
- Linking to posts on other forums related to ANY of the above, whether you are the originator or not, without exception.
- There has been too much in the way of abhorrent personal behaviors in the past. These will cease. It doesn't matter who started it or who reacted to it - it will all result in moderator action. If you have to indulge your hatreds, for whatever reason, go do it elsewhere - and do not try and drag our forum-goers over to enjoy your hatreds.
- We understand that people have strong feelings about our games, what we do for a living and how we respond (or don't) to comments on the forums. We all aren't going to agree about everything. So, BE CIVIL in your disagreements!

Netiquette: Written text has no inflection, and, as such, you should be careful how you write your messages as interpretation will vary from person to person. Please take advantage of the built-in emoticons to add such expression to your words. Please remember the golden rule: to treat other forum users the way you would like to be treated. Please use common courtesy, and enjoy using Red Orchestra's forums
Offensive materialThe following is a list of some things that MAY be considered "offensive" by the moderators and the team. This is NOT an exclusive list and it does depend very much on context.
Crossing the line into "offensive" territory is likely to get you asked to change your name, sig or avatar or to withdraw/delete posts. This will be done politely by the moderators. If you refuse to comply further action WILL be taken once started, ultimately leading to banning from the forums.
A key point: please attempt to use your brains. What is mild humour to you may well be deeply offensive to others. While we have no intention of acting as politically-correct "thought police", we are on the lookout for those things that can cause offense and, in some cases, are actually still illegal in some jurisdictions.
- Names recalling notorious war criminals or personalities.
- Names recalling atrocities and war crimes in general, or units with particularly odious histories.
- Use of obscenities and expletives.
- Blatant racism, mysogynism or many other "ism"s.
- Use of symbolism and regalia recalling Nazism or Fascism; this does not include pics of soldiers who happen to have such symbols on their uniform, unless we feel this has been done to provoke. Please note that many Nazi symbols (including the Swastika) are still illegal in Germany and other countries and considered deeply offensive by many Europeans.
- Use of symbolism and regalia recalling Stalinism.
- On both the previous two, the moderators' views on the intention and impact of use of such symbols will be final - not yours. Please be understanding if you are advised to change something.
- In general, if a sig/avatar represents your allegiances in-game and is clearly "in part", it is likely to be fine; if the moderators feel you are trying to demonstrate unpalatable political allegiances, or to use it in an attempt to ridicule or provoke others you WILL be asked to change it. RO is NOT the place to make any extremist political statements of any kind.
So people get the idea, some examples that would be considered offensive, numbered as above:
- "Hitler", "Beria"
- "NKVD Blocking Detachment", "Einsatzgruppen"
- This one should be pretty obvious...
- So should this - and it includes calling all Germans "Nazis" and all Soviets/Russians "Commies". It got boring 50 years ago, so stop it.
- Use of swastikas, fasces, SS-runes and so on for the Axis.
- There is actually very little overt symbolism from the Stalinist era; the hammer-and-sickle isn't offensive per se.
A simple rule-of-thumb: many Europeans find Nazi symbolism of any sort offensive; many Americans still find Soviet symbolism offensive. Engage your brain before using.
Final Note: this is NOT open to debate, so please do NOT start whining and moaning if a moderator asks you to change something. They will advise at first, giving reasons, then, if you take no notice, they will step up the pressure through to banning.

Just a tidbit of info I thought I would throw out there.

There were a few thousand prototypes of the MG34/41 that had the stronger buffer spring prevalent with the MG42.
There were MG34/41's in Stalingrad IIRC, so theoretically, you could have both in the game. The MG34/41 would feel, act, and shoot like the MG42, but it just would look more like the MG34.
Originally posted by C_Gibby View PostOoh, interesting stuff. It would be cool if TWI could see about doing something in-game that nods to this, but I guess it's a bit too late in development for that. But of course, there are soldiers that carry an extra drum mag instead though, right? But the mags are pretty large, so they end up taking up a lot of space on their backs, I imagine...

Admit it, you know you want one.
Bringing this thread back up to avoid spam.
So what's the final word on this? Does anyone think we will be seeing the MG42 in RO2 at all? I'd hope it at least gets added in later on for an "Elite Machinegunner" role or something.
Leaving it out just seems wrong.

I've been sitting on this recipe idea for quite a few months now and finally chose to whip it up earlier today. And now I'm kicking myself for waiting so long because it's super easy to make and hella tasty. Also, if you've found yourself slightly intimated by the Old Fashioned then this is a nice way to ease yourself in. The addition of Piehole Pecan Pie Whiskey gives it a nice layer of dessert-y sweetness while the Bulleit Bourbon still makes for a pretty solid Old Fashioned.
Another cool thing about this cocktail is that you can really add your own twist to it by using flavored bitters. I used good ol' fashioned Angostura bitters for my cocktail, but a vanilla or walnut-flavored bitter would really take this drink to the next level.
Check out my Pecan Pie Old Fashioned recipe, below. Cheers!
1 oz Bulleit Bourbon
0.5 oz Piehole Pecan Pie Whiskey
1 or 2 Sugar Cubes
2 Dash Of Bitters
Splash Of Water
Add sugar cube(s), bitters, and a splash of water to an Old Fashioned glass. Muddle sugar mixture with the back of a spoon. Add Bulleit Bourbon and Piehole Whiskey to your glass. Stir and add ice. Garnish with cherry.

Question about 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer
Coming home from Wizards game, I was going about 70 to 80 mph and I am hearing a vibration noise coming from left side of vehicle. The noise is pretty loud to where I need to turn up my stereo volume to hear music. Can someone help me with this problem. I was told it could be the motor mounts but I am not sure about that.
Posted by clavezza on
Sounds more like a wheel bearing,jack the car up and support with axle stands,then grab the front left wheel at both sides and shake it hard.then grab it at the top and bottom and shake it hard.if a knocking can be felt through the wheel then its most likely a wheel bearing.repeat the test for the rear wheel.also with the vehicle jacked up,spin the wheel and put your ear next to it,if it makes a dry whirring or grinding sound as it spins,this is a symptom of a worn wheel bearing

Review for Girls Incorporated of New York City, New York, NY, USA
I've only worked with Girls Inc for a short period but in that time there is no doubt in my mind that it's a great organization. They encourage the girls to be strong smart and bold and in some way encourage the mentors to be the same. It's been a great resource for me to get involved and help out in my spare time. The coordinators are great with placing mentors in mutually convenient school and think through every step so that mentors are never at a lost. They make it super easy so that you can focus on the subject at hand, the students.
The participating girls are so eager to be involved. They look forward to the Girls Inc workshops and are happy to be doing something productive and interactive. It's an all around great experience for everyone involved. I'd recommend both student and potential mentors to get involved!

Running multiple multi-threaded servers (not multi-process) against the same databaseby
Adrian Merrall
I am mostly concerned about any locking in the multi-threaded server that may be happening but there may be other problems I am unaware of.
We know multi-worker is fine of course but because of the customer's platform choice (windows) we have to run multi-threaded and would like to run more than one multi-threaded server on different ports but point them to the same database.
Hi,Has anyone in the community run multiple instances of the multi-threaded (not multi-process) server against the same database in production?
I am not concerned with managing sessions or similar. All on-line users would access a single instance and the other instances would be used to run multiple cron processes simultaneously as a way around the GIL.
Any results, good or bad, from running this configuration in production would be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Thanks and Regards,

Film Review : If there's a hell below (2016)
Genre : Thriller
Country : USA
Cast :
Carol Roscoe : Debra
Connor Marx : Abe
Director : Nathan Williams
Abe is an ambitious young journalist at an independent Chicago weekly. He has a lead on a story that could make his career. Debra, a woman claiming to work in national security, has a serious revelation to leak. She insists on meeting Abe in a desolate place in the American West – perhaps because it is near her undisclosed work site, or perhaps because she will only reveal her information in absolute isolation.
My Opinion
"You know why people like snowden fucked up? Because they became the story."
I really like to watch non-traditional, artistic and mysterious films where there's room for a little bit of interpretation. Such a movie with different layers you ponder about afterwards. The problem with "If there's a hell below" (and no, it's not horror) is the fact that little is offered to ponder about. As uninformed as you start the movie, as uninformed you'll be at the end of the film. Truly an explanation of what's exactly going on, you shouldn't be expecting. To be honest, you end up with more unanswerable questions. And my biggest frustration is that I really wanted to know what Debra (Carol Roscoe) wanted to bring out into the open.
It's rather vague
Debra is a whistleblower working for the US government (I'm assuming) who planned a secret interview with the young journalist Abe (Connor Marx) for months already . As a "senior information processing engineer" it would have been better if she had searched a bit better through Abe's background, because In my opinion this guy wasn't fit for the job. She knew his name, social security number and who he called that day. You can say she has her reliable sources. But finding out that he's a pedantic smart ass who can't or doesn't want to estimate the seriousness of this case, probably was too much to ask.
Debra wants to reveal something that concerns the national security. What implications this information will bring after revealing it and why Debra wants to do this initially, isn't explained thorougly. Something about a list of names and a hysterical plea about leaders who manipulate poor people to make sure people like Abe can have their necessary gadgets. Yes, it's rather vague.
Abe is a pedantic smart ass
Debra sees herself as a better version of Snowden, Manning and Assange because according to her their own personality came first instead of focusing on the essence of what was being revealed. The information she's about to reveal obviously is very sensitive information. Before they know it, they are being chased by an unknown SUV. The biggest annoyance for me (beside the complete lack of information) was mainly Abe's behavior.
When you're preparing for a secret meeting with someone from the inteligence service for several months already and you know she's going to reveal some highly sensitive information with far-reaching consequences, you should also assume this isn't without risk. Well, apparently Abe doesn't see it that way and looks at it as a typical fait d'hiver. Why else would he briefly take a look at the suspicious SUV? And he refuses to continue driving during a pursuit, because Debra can't or won't give him a detailed explanation. Plain stupid and quite annoying.
A secret meeting in an open area …. Smart
"If there's a hell below" certainly won't be appreciated by everyone. It is fairly minimalistic and mainly displays stylistic images of a bone dry, flat desert landscape with Debra and Abe having some superficial conversations while driving through this landscape with an occasional stop. That's another thing I was wondering about. Why the hell did they meet in this region? It's impossible to hide for anyone. The only deviating elements were the two stories told by Abe and one of the pursuers. Although the film is painfully slow, there are some moments of intense tension.
Anybody out there who can explain it to me?
But I can tell you one thing. After the credits you will look in amazement at the screen, totally confused and full of questions that'll never be answered. I have no idea why it had to end like this. Were there hidden clues in the two stories about the caterpillars and turtles? Was it intentional of Abe to put false facts in his story? Couldn't he forsee that Debra knew the composition of his family? And how could Schafer know certain elements of that story? Was the story of the turtles a kind of parable? A hint about Debra? About her destiny? And what was the device Debra used in the beginning? Too many questions and no answers. Just guesses.
For some, this will be the strength of the film. Room for interpretation. Well, it was a stylistic work of art. In terms of story however, it was a bit too enigmatic to me.
My rating 4/10

|The FRFG at the COP 15
The FRFG at the COP 15 talks on climate change in Copenhagen
The FRFG participated at the COP 15 talks on climate change in Copenhagen in December 2009 as a registered observer organization. Due to the tight working schedule, the delegation could only free up the 14th and 15th of December for participation. Accessing the actual venue of the talks, the Bella Center, was unfortunately not possible due to severe mistakes of the UNFCCC secretariat in the registration procedure. A number of NGO representatives that was three times higher than the maximum capacity of the venue had been accepted. This resulted in the queues seen in the news that meandered through the cold for hours.
The delegation of the FRFG make use of the time by attending scientific presentations at the civil society conference running parallel to the official talks that focused on different aspects of climate change.

About Westborough
Since its incorporation in 1717 as the 100th town in Massachusetts, Westborough has grown from a settlement of orchards and dairies into a dynamic community with a healthy mix of residences, wooded trails, and industry. Located 12 miles east of Worcester and 29 miles west of Boston, at the intersection of the Mass Pike, Route 495 and Route 9, Westborough's population of a little more than 18,000 residents enjoy extensive public services for all ages, and active recreation programs on its lakes, woodlands, and playing fields. Westborough High School was ranked 35th in Newsweek Magazine's "America's Top High Schools 2014" list, and the town has been cited by Money Magazine and CNNmoney.com as one of the "Best Places to Live" in the U.S.
Spurred by the advent of the train in 1834, and now with commuter rail service to both Boston and Worcester, Westborough has been home to diversified manufacturing, ranging from sleighs, straw hats, and boots in the past to computer and telecommunications equipment today. Westborough has also emerged as an important regional center for office development, with 35 percent of its employment devoted to the service sector.

Botox injections have developed into a great treatment that is much more advanced. After just a short healing period, your face will relax into a natural, but gorgeously young, expression. Visit Juvia Med Spa or call us at 817-427-3700 for more information.

Why Choose Botox Treatment?
Have you ever wished that you could go back in time and slather sunscreen on
yourself when you were younger? Or maybe you'd go back to the moment you
had your first cigarette, and force yourself to put it down before you'd even lit
the end. The choices we made as children and young adults can have a big
effect on our health and the appearance of our skin when we age.
Sun exposure, tanning beds, and cigarettes can all cause the skin to sag,
wrinkle, and generally look loose and dull. But we all want to have youthful,
glowing skin that is smooth and tight. One of the ways that many people
achieve this is through Botox. But if you've ever heard any of the horror
stories from the early days of Botox skin treatment, like many other Forth
Worth citizens, then you might be wondering why you should choose Botox.
Here are a few great reasons:
Avoid Surgery
One of the big benefits of Botox injectables for our Southlake, Fort Worth, and
Colleyville patients is that they can avoid invasive surgeries. Plastic surgery
that can address the issue of aging skin, loose jaw lines, and dull skin, can also
leave behind scars from stitches, and will take quite a long time to heal.
Surgery is also more time consuming, more expensive, and riskier. Botox, on
the other hand, is quick, far less risky, and not at all painful. After a short
healing period over a few days, you'll look and feel fantastic.
No One Needs to Know
No One Needs to Know
Maybe in the early days of Botox, it was easy to tell when someone had some
work done. The comical "frozen face" expression is no longer something that
most people have to worry about. Botox injections have developed into a great
treatment that are much more advanced. After just a short healing period,
your face will relax into a natural, but gorgeously young, expression. And if
you want even faster and more natural results, we also offer Dysport, a Botox
alternative that can be better for some people.
No matter why you are choosing to utilize Botox, the important thing is that
you feel better. You'll gain confidence, and love what you see in the mirror.
With physical beauty comes emotional and mental health, and the power of
that cannot be underestimated. Contact us for a free consultation today!

Colour clients could be divided into two categories: those who like makeup and those who don't. Those who do like makeup may have a stash that puts mine to shame. Those who don't like makeup often bring a bag of products anyway.
Your CC cream and mineral powder are still makeup
"I don't really wear makeup" they say, before taking out a bunch of product that in my mind, is still makeup but cleverly labeled as beauty enhancing creams and powders. To me, product is product and it still touches your skin.
What makes these products makeup instead of regular moisturizer? Well they might be tinted and contain oxides or micas meant to blur or obscure flaws on the face. Some are labeled as "correctors" meant to balance warm or cool tones on the skin. Or "enhancers" to create an all over "glow" (read: shine).
The word "makeup" in itself implies that by using it you are creating a false version of yourself, and has kind of become a bad word in the beauty industry.
Dark Autumn and True Winter makeup comparison. Both eyeliners are a dark brown, not black
Just by replacing a few of these products with the right colour cosmetics on the lips and cheeks will improve your appearance immensely while still using the same number of products on the face. If you want to get really bold you can add eyeliner to the mix.
Some who claim not to wear makeup still wear mascara, and typically black mascara. This is justified from the same perspective that it enhances the appearance and isn't "fake". Black mascara gets pushed as a staple by the industry so much that it is difficult to find mascara that isn't black.
Black mascara generally looks best on the 3 Winters, and even some of the fairer skinned winters may want to try a dark grey. When black is too intense for the person's inherent colouring the eye makeup becomes all you see. That includes the little globs of mascara you forgot to comb out or the bit that got smudged under the eye during a cat nap or sneezing fit.
Having near black hair will make black eye makeup look more normal but there are lots of colours that are also close to black that would create a more natural effect.
Black eye makeup + creams filled will optical "enhancers" usually creates an uneven, ashy, whitewashed appearance on most warmer and muted skintones and in some lighting looks like glitter on the face. Often we don't realize this is happening to us so we add more product to the mix.
Bright Spring blush may be retina searing bright on paper but perfectly normal applied to the right face
Those that welcome colour cosmetics into their lives even in small, baby steps usually see results right away, as you would during your Personal Colour Analysis. Even clients who are very anti-makeup relax when the right blush is applied to the cheeks. A dab with a stripping brush is hardly any product at all and instantly lifts the eyes and face.
Knowing your right colours puts you in the position of power at the makeup counter. The right red settling in perfectly at home with you natural colouring, no correcting required.

President-Elect Donald Trump Vows To Deport 2-3Million Illegal Immigrants
President-elect Donald Trump has restated his vow to deport two to three million illegal, undocumented immigrants.
Trump made the assertion while discussing his immigration stance in his first post-election interview on CBS 60 Minutes on Sunday, November 13.
President Trump said:
"What we are going to do is get the people that are criminal and have criminal records, gang members, drug dealers.
"Where a lot of these people — probably two million, it could even be three million — we are getting them out of our country or we are going to incarcerate."
7o-year-old Trump explained his intentions to CBS News' Lesley Stahl in his latest interview.

He further clarified that he would be going after the "illegals" only.
He said:
"But we're getting them out of our country. They're here illegally."
The real estate billionaire also stood by his hard-line plan to build a wall along the United States-Mexico border.
Trump admitted that "there will be some fencing."
Donald trump disclosed:
"For certain areas, I would [include fencing], but certain areas, a wall is more appropriate.
"I'm very good at this. It's called construction."
A confident Trump continued,

"After the border is secured and after everything gets normalized, we're going to make a determination on the people that you're talking about [undocumented immigrants].
"Who are terrific people, they're terrific people — but we're going to make a determination at that.
"But before we make that determination, Leslie, it's very important, we are going to secure our border."
Earlier this year, the businessman met with Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto to discuss the possibility of building a wall.
Trump claimed during an August 31 press conference that the duo "didn't discuss payment of the wall" during their meeting.
Hours later, Peña Nieto disputed Trump's claims, tweeting that he "made it clear that Mexico will not pay for the wall."

Ravichandran Ashwin has done something unique in switching over to being a frontline spinner after starting off as an opener at the junior level. I say unique, because quite a few have done the reverse, either by choice or due to circumstances. Be that as it may, Ashwin has made it known repeatedly that he can be more than handy with the bat. Not that he chose the most opportune moment always to convey it, but what matters to him is making people know what he felt about his batting.
I remember when I was the coach of the Tamil Nadu team, we were discussing what needed to be done to avoid relegation in 2006-07 after losing the penultimate game outright. The team members were coming out with suggestions while desperately trying to get over the dejection that creeps in after a bad game.
Amidst the gloom and despair in the dressing room, Ashwin, the offspinning debutant of the season, put his hand up and said, "Sir, in case you are not aware, I started off as an opener and I can bat very well." Great timing, Ashwin, full marks to you! I managed to retain my composure and responded with something like, "Ash, we will get down to specifics in a bit, once we are through with the larger picture."
A couple of seasons later, he notched up his maiden first-class hundred, after which he asked me if I considered him an allrounder. Not one to shy away from banter, I remarked that he needed to notch up a century and back it up with a five-for in the same game at least thrice to be deemed so. It is not that I did not rate his batting, but after having seen my good friend L Sivaramakrishnan lean more towards batting at the expense of his extraordinary bowling talent, I wanted Ashwin to develop into a bowling allrounder.
The banter between Ashwin and me about his batting was well and truly settled when he got his hundred against the West Indies a year ago. More than his century, the manner in which he has batted since does give me the impression that he can become an allrounder in Test cricket. He has a very simple approach to batting and being a "beside the line" player, he is pleasing on the eye as well. Of course, he will need to work constantly on his cricket, but the signs are encouraging.
His progress as an allrounder will depend a lot on the faith the team management pins in him. In the past, I felt that Anil Kumble was not encouraged enough to leverage his batting skills, but the current scenario is different. MS Dhoni is open to trying different things, using Yuvraj Singh as a fifth bowler in the World Cup being a case in point. Similarly, if Ashwin is given responsibility when it comes to his batting, he can only get better.
Ashwin needs to work on his agility but I must reveal that he has improved a lot since he started playing first-class cricket. A better alternative for him in Test cricket would be to specialise in close-in fielding, like Kumble did.
I can't help but think of Kumble whenever I talk about Ashwin, the reason being that there are a lot of similarities between the two. Ashwin, like Kumble, is an engineering graduate, reads the game well, has more or less the same build, and is as aggressive as the legend. Ashwin has to bear in mind that the journey has just begun and as such, bigger challenges await him. A chat with either Kumble or Ravi Shastri on ways to maximise one's potential will help him immensely to convert his good start into a long and outstanding career.

You wait in line at the KFC to order the Shrroms burger, half wondering if the other people will judge you, but half not caring. With shifty eyes, you order the burger and head to your table in the corner. As you sink your teeth into the burger, the crispiness of the chicken plays on your tongue as the earthy flavor of the shrooms fills your palette. The food slides easily down your throat to go dance in your stomach as you hear trumpets crying out victory. The devil appears on your shoulder telling you to take another bite and you turn to the other shoulder for another opinion, but the other guy is not there. A few minutes later, the angel pops up, with gravy trailing down his face and apologizes for being late because he was having his own Shrooms burger. So you take bite after fulfilling bite of the amazing shrooms burger, feeling like you've made the best decision in your life. Then the animals come out…

Having increased our exports by 43% over three years, we won a second Queen's Award - this time for enterprise in international trade. The award put us in an elite group of businesses, who have been honoured more than once. It was a fitting reward for the hard work and dedication of our excellent work force!
After 139 years of being James H Heal & Co Ltd, we modernised our image and rebranded ourselves as simply 'James Heal'. But, it was much more than just a name change. Our appearance, our style, our product signature and our behaviours were updated to reflect a powerful, progressive and dynamic Company.
Our instruments were well established and the time had come to diversify. As a result, we started the manufacture of test materials - the standardised products needed to use most of our instruments. The creation of a 'mini textile mill' alongside precision engineering created a powerful synergy of activities.
This was a momentous year for the Company. Exports of our textile testing instruments broke all previous records. In April, we were rewarded and honoured for our achievements by the Queen's Award for Export - the highest and most prestigious corporate business award in the United Kingdom.
As our business continued to expand, we were running out of space so, when the opportunity arose to purchase the adjacent mill, we took it. The floor area of the two mills is approximately 10 000 m2. The mills have been extensively developed and restored to match the needs of a modern manufacturing business.
At the time, the industry was changing. The Retailers had begun to realize that they could differentiate and protect themselves by implementing proper quality assurance regimes. So, the time was right to devote all our energies and resources to the development of fabric and colour fastness testing equipment.
To cope with increasing demand for our products, both at home and abroad, we moved into Lake View - a multi-storey, former textile mill, built around 1850. The Mill, at the time, was virtually derelict, but was gradually restored to cater for the requirements of a growing business.
The Company was purchased by Harry Repper - an apprentice-trained mechanical engineer. At the time, James H Heal was manufacturing a limited range of mainly yarn testing instruments, including Wrap Reels, Yarn Count Balances, Single Thread and Hank Strength Testers and Moisture Testing Ovens.
This is the first compelling evidence of early testing instruments. The document is a delivery note, dated June 12 1899, covering the supply of a Twist Tester to a local textile mill (Slater and Sons). The text describes how to determine the number of 'turns per inch' in a length of yarn.
We were first established by George James Henry Heal during the industrial and technological revolution. We don't know much about the original James Heal, but we do know that the Company started out as a Mill Supplier and Furnisher and served the needs of the then vibrant, local, wool textile industry.

Autobiography of Mark Twain, Volume 3 (Mark Twain Papers)
- The Complete and Authoritative Edition
(E-bog, ePub)
Beskrivelse: The surprising final chapter of a great American life. When the first volume of Mark Twain's uncensored Autobiography was published in 2010, it was hailed as an esse... Læs mere ntial addition to the shelf of his works and a crucial document for our understanding of the great humorist's life and times. This third and final volume crowns and completes his life's work. Like its companion volumes, it chronicles Twain's inner and outer life through a series of daily dictations that go wherever his fancy leads. Created from March 1907 to December 1909, these dictations present Mark Twain at the end of his life: receiving an honorary degree from Oxford University; railing against Theodore Roosevelt; founding numerous clubs; incredulous at an exhibition of the Holy Grail; credulous about the authorship of Shakespeare's plays; relaxing in Bermuda; observing (and investing in) new technologies. The Autobiography's 'Closing Words' movingly commemorate his daughter Jean, who died on Christmas Eve 1909. Also included in this volume is the previously unpublished 'Ashcroft-Lyon Manuscript,' Mark Twain's caustic indictment of his 'putrescent pair' of secretaries and the havoc that erupted in his house during their residency. Fitfully published in fragments at intervals throughout the twentieth century, Autobiography of Mark Twain has now been critically reconstructed and made available as it was intended to be read. Fully annotated by the editors of the Mark Twain Project, the complete Autobiography emerges as a landmark publication in American literature.

New Video Series on Better Broadband in Cambridge, Massachusetts| Written by ILSR | No Comments | Updated on Aug 7, 2015 The content that follows was originally published on the Institute for Local Self-Reliance website at https://ilsr.org/new-video-series-on-better-broadband-in-cambridge-massachusetts/
Cambridge, Massachusetts has established a Broadband Task Force and is looking for ways to better its local connectivity. In order to educate the public about the advantages of broadband, the local community CCTV channel will televise presentations and sit-downs between local leaders who can describe how it will impact Cambridge.
The first episode of Cambridge Broadband Matters recently aired and is now available to view. It runs approximately 30 minutes long and features Georgiana Chevry of Cambridge Community Learning Center, Susan Flannery of Cambridge Public Library, and Jay Leslie of the Cambridge Housing Authority.
One of the topics they address in this episode is the connection between broadband and adult education and workforce development. The issue is critical in Cambridge and many communities as we transition to an information based economy.

You may or may not be familiar with Graham Hill or his wildly successful website, Treehugger, but in this TED Talk, he shares an interesting perspective on vegetarianism. I am not a vegetarian, but I do flirt with the idea from time to time. Like Graham, my taste buds are in conflict with my thoughts and emotions surrounding health, sustainability and animal cruelty. So, I can definitely relate to Graham's solution to be a weekday vegetarian. Listen to his compelling argument here:
This short speech has encouraged me that my intermittent attempts to lessen my footprint and eat less meat will not go unnoticed on an environmental scale. It also offers a simple strategy for others out there like me who are concerned about food issues but find it difficult to completely say goodbye to bacon.

The Three Brethren have stood in splendid isolation on Yair Hill since 1600.
For over 500 years people have been coming to this area by horse, bike or on foot with a view to enjoying the peace, quiet and isolation of the place.
What arrogance to think we have the right to erect eight turbines over 100 metres high within 200-300 metres of the Brethren. What right have we to disturb the wildlife, vegetation and tranquility of the place with eight concrete structures whose shelf life is 25 years, whose efficiency at producing electricity is dubious and which do not work when the wind is too strong or non-existent?

College enrollments are higher than ever. In 2005 more than 60% of high school graduates enrolled in two or four-year colleges and more than 16 million students were registered in some type of postsecondary education. Moreover, college enrollments are only expected to increase in the coming decade–a recent study by the National Association for College Admissions Counseling finds that 73% of colleges saw applications increase from the previous year.
This increase in applications is fueled by a number of factors, including:
This rise in college applications has created media frenzy, warning the already anxious college-bound that the college admissions process is more competitive than ever. In reality, four-year colleges and universities actually accept about seven of every ten applicants. So instead of focusing on just getting into college, students should concentrate on the years following admission and finding the most suitable school. The following three steps can help ease your college search.
Step 1: Figure Out What You Want
Choosing a college is very personal–it is not a decision to be taken lightly. Too often students choose colleges based on national rankings, without taking into consideration their own needs and priorities. So before you interrogate the admissions' officers, ask yourself some questions. Here are some considerations for you:
Step 2: Narrow Down Your List
Once you have a clear idea of what you are looking for in a college, concentrate on targeting your search. Before you spend hundreds of dollars in application fees, narrow down your list of colleges to realistic matches.
Consider Your High School Record
According to the National Association for College Admissions Counseling, college admissions officers point to grades in college preparatory classes as the number one factor they consider when making a decision. Then come standardized admission test scores, high school grade point average, class rank, and the application essay, followed by teacher or counselor recommendations.
So before you apply to college, look at how realistic your chances are for acceptance. Many college counselors advise applying for two safety schools (institutions with standards you know you meet easily), two borderline schools (schools in which you have a fair shot at admissions) and two reach schools (they might stretch you a bit and you don't necessarily expect to get in).
Because Money Matters: Financial Aid Options
While education may be one of the best investments you can make, college is not cheap–and options for financial aid remain a crucial factor in choosing a college. When researching a school, consider what financial aid is available; many schools hand out need-based aid and others award merit-determined aid to attract students. Economizing students may attend a two-year college and then transfer to four-year institutions to minimize costs.
Step 3: Find Out More by Consulting Resources
Once you know what you are looking for there are many sources of information about colleges. While books and rankings are useful, try to get first-hand accounts of college life from students and alumni as well. Here are some useful options for researching colleges:
College rankings may be the most popular way to compare schools, but there is a lot more to consider about a college than simply how hard it is to get in. You should go beyond admissions selectivity and check out the statistics that will give you a better idea of what a place will be like once you are there. Some important statistics to consider include:
Choosing a college is certainly one of the most important decisions you make, but that doesn't mean it has to be overwhelming. If you do your homework by researching colleges thoroughly, the decision will be less painful to make and you'll feel more comfortable with it.
