Teacher Summer Challenge: Getting Your Year In Gear
Holy Moly!
I am bursting with excitement for an announcement that I have been dying to make, and today - I can finally talk about a huuuuge project that I've been working on.
Raise your hand if you participated in my Jump Start teacher challenge that I did last summer. It was a 30 challenge designed to help teacher break down the over-whelming task of prepping for a new school year in manageable chunks that didn't require them to sacrifice one bit of their summer-lovin life style. We covered everything from organizing and decorating your classroom to curriculum planning, and more - a LOT more.
I had this vision that I really wanted to help teachers get ready for the school year in a fun, energizing way and knowing that teachers like to connect, share, and inspire each other, I began developing this challenge that I called "Jump Start." I spent over a month putting it together and then offered it to teachers for free.
I honestly thought that maaaaaybe 50 people would sign up and take the challenge. But, guess what? I had over 1,000 teachers step up and say "YES! I'm in!" WHAT??? That's crazy town.
I was blown away. We even had a private facebook group that was super active and inspiring to each other with their words of encouragement and inspiration to each other. I couldn't have imagined a better outcome to the challenge.
Fast forward to May of this year. I was having an impromptu lunch with my friend May Beth from Brain Waves Instruction. We both are full-time curriculum writers here in Rochester, NY and we were discussing projects that we were working on and I mentioned how I was gearing up to begin preparations for this year's Jump Start challenge. I told her how amazing it was last summer, but I was looking to put a fresh new spin on it.
Well- guess what (or, I should say who) my fresh new spin is? Mary Beth! She has joined me in hosting the challenge this summer and she has brought some amazingly fresh, fun ideas to the challenge!
Even more than that, we have joined together to form a new passion project called "School Year Solutions." School Year Solutions is going to be a new place where teachers can find simple solutions to solving their biggest classroom challenges. And the first challenge we are taking on together is planning and prepping for a new school year.
We're calling the challenge this summer "Getting Your Year in Gear." It is going to be better then ever and I want YOU to join us. Even if you joined me last year for Jump Start, you won't want to miss the challenge this year. By the way - it's a FREE challenge.
Here's a little bit about what you can expect:
If your ready to learn even more about this challenge - hop over to our new School Year Solutions site where you can get all the details about the course and how to sign up. I hope you will join us this summer! Just click below to learn more!

Fascination With Fear
Part A
Edgar Allen Poe's short story The Premature Burial explores the narrator's fear of being buried alive. The theme is that you can overcome your fears as long as you don't focus on the dark and dreary things in life. Throughout the whole story, the narrator is consumed by his fears. He has catalepsy, which is a physical condition in which the person cannot move or speak. This condition can last from hours to months! The narrator does not want to be alone but he does not want to be around people because he is afraid that they will think that he is dead. "No event is so terribly well adapted to inspire the supremeness of bodily and mental distress,as is burial before death." The narrator goes through other incidents of people being buried alive where some don't make it back out. Back then, being buried alive happened a lot, so it was a rational fear. Towards the end of the story, after he awakes from his dream, he becomes a new man. This new man learns to conquer his fears and eventually loses his catalepsy.
Part B
The theme in "The Premature Burial" is that you can overcome your fears as long as you don't focus on the dark and dreary things in life. As a gymnast, fear happens to be a daily occurrence. I have avoided, gone around, and just plain ignored my fear. Something that gymnastics has taught me is in order to escape fear, you have to go through it, not around. You have to decide that you want it more than you are afraid of it. I think the narrator realized in the end that the monsters we are all scared of are actually inside of us.
Here, Poe describes the sensations of being buried alive. What imagery does Poe use to help you hear, see, smell, and feel? He uses descriptive sentences to help describe what's going on. (Ex. "the suffocating fumes from the damp earth)
The narrator suffers from catalepsy, a physical condition in which the individual cannot move or speak for hours or, in extreme cases, for months. According to the narrator's explanation, what are some of the ways that one can tell a cataleptic is still living? You can still feel the heart beat and an unequal irregularaction of the lungs of one who has catalepsy. Small amounts of warmth and a slight color remain on the skin.
What simile does the narrator use describing his return to consciousness? What does the narrator suggest by using this simile and subsequent description? The narrator describes two forms his attack takes and two different ways he wakes up. 1. "I remained, until the crisis of the disease restored me, suddenly, to perfect sensation." 2. ".. I awoke slowly. Just as the day dawns to the friendless and houseless beggar who roams the streets throughout the long desolate winter night - just so tardily - just so wearily - just so cheerily came back the light of the soul to me."
As the narrator experiences fear, what techniques does Poe use to create suspense for the reader? He wrote long sentences with a lot of punctuation marks.
What is happening to the narrator here? Use evidence from the text to support your answer. The narrator is being awaken by a mysterious person. "Suddenly there came an icy hand upon my forehead, and an impatient, gibbering voice whispered the word "Arise!" within my ear."
How would you describe the narrator's mental state? Are his actions rational? I would describe the narrator's mental state as frantic and scared. I believe his actions are rational because his fears are rational. His fear of being buried alive could very well happen and be the death of him.
What technique does Poe use in the second paragraph to build suspense? What is the effect on you, the reader? he uses short sentences and a lot of punctuation. This makes me read it faster which creates more suspense.
Based on the descriptions here, what has happened to the narrator? He is trying to scream out but he cannot talk. He believes he is buried.
How does changing sentence structure from long to short and choppy help build suspense? What emotions do you feel as you read? It makes the reader read faster.
What has happened? If you were the narrator, what would you feel hearing these voices? I would be freaked out and confused.
The narrator undergoes a major change. What did the narrator do in light of his experience on the sailboat? Do you think his reaction is a typical one of someone facing their fears?He turns into a new man. Not everyone has the same reaction when facing their fears. In the end, his fear was gone.
Think about the meaning of the last sentence. What is Poe saying in these final lines of his story? Poe is saying that fears must be overcome or they will destroy us.
The theme of "The Premature Burial" is that you can overcome your fears as long as you don't focus on the dark and dreary things in life. Being a gymnast, fear is an everyday occurrence. I have avoided and ignored fear. In the end you realize to escape fear, you have to go through it, not around. Usually when I am afraid to do a skill nobody will know. My friends always say they wish they weren't afraid of things like me but I have gone through so many fears. I try not to acknowledge my fear so I can just push through it. I think in the end of "The Premature Burial" he realizes that you cannot let your fear of what could happen make nothing happen and that the real monsters are inside of us. That is something I can relate to very much.

I nice little stage that suited for most of the Pokemon. This is my first upload and I hope you like it.
Here are some tips for the Pokemon:
?Jiggly's Rollout and Squirtle's Side B attack are great here.
?Pikachu can KO easier with Thunder since this stage was built a little higher in stage builder.
?Ivysaur can attack the opponents with Bullet Seed in the middle while they sit on the thin platforms much easier.
?Charizard's Rock Smash attack will do great in the smaller bottom floor since the opponent is in a tight space.
?Lucario's Double Team will be easier to use if there is a bunch opponents attacking on the bottom since it's tight and the attacks will hit him quicker activating the Double Team.
?Note: I uploaded Poketopia, it's the second version of this. It's awaiting approval. Just thought I let you know. ;)

In "Good Dog, Happy Baby," trainer Michael Wombacher gives solid advice to expectant and new parents about how to ensure a safe environment for both new baby and old (or not-so-old) dog. Whether you have one dog or a pack, when a new baby arrives, it's important to have set the stage for a happy co-existence.
When a baby arrives, any household experiences huge changes. It's important to make sure that those changes don't alienate the dog or cause the dog's behavior to deteriorate. And if the dog has behavioral problems before the baby arrives, then it's even more important to address those early.
The most important piece of advice is also common sense: Never leave the dog and baby unsupervised — ever! He gives two heartbreaking examples of what can happen if that advice is not followed. While dogs must be taught to behave around children, so must children be taught how to behave around dogs. Wombacher also points out that even if a child is used to being around a gentle and loving dog, not all dogs are like that. It's extremely important to teach children about dog-appropriate manners so that they don't get bitten by a strange dog.
This book is important and should be on every rescue and shelter's list of required reading materials for adopters. In fact, Wombacher says in the introduction that his motivation for writing this book was a call from a couple who decided to give up their dog three months after they had a child. The poor dog was ignored and not allowed on the sofa anymore, so he was acting out. The parents didn't have the time to train him and work with him, so he was relinquished.
He writes that "the entire situation would have been preventable had they started working with their dog from the day they learned they were expecting." This book would be a great shower gift for an expectant mother who has a dog (or even a cat). Shelters and rescues know that hundreds, if not thousands, of animals are abandoned every year because of a new child. Armed with the information in this book, the outcome might be different.
Please note: This review is based on the final, hardcover book provided by New World Library for review purposes.

Trust vs Control – Why big companies are slower than startups
Big companies, when they started out, consisted of a few people who:
1. Were extremely excited about the vision of the company
2. Were considered by each other as the perfect people for the jobs they were tasked with
3. Cared very much about whether or not the company succeeded
Because of these 3 key facts, they all trusted each other implicitly. And because of this trust, no-one considered putting in processes and controls to make sure they behaved themselves properly. They didn't need them. As far as they were concerned, there was no risk.
The company grew fast. People were hired quickly. And as time went on, the odd mistake was made. None were devastating, but some were bad enough to make someone introduce a process to ensure no-one made the same mistake again.
The bigger the company got, the more there was to lose, and the more processes were introduced to protect itself from that one mistake that might end in disaster.
Protection became more important than innovation.
Control replaced trust.
And there you have it. The velocity of the company in relation to the size of its workforce, had begun its inevitable and never-ending decline.
Why would this slow companies down?
- Each new process or control amounts to extra work for a company's staff
- This extra work doesn't create ANY incremental value for the company
- Even though this extra work is intended to limit mistakes by a company's LESS trustworthy or LESS talented people
- It's in fact its MOST trustworthy and MOST talented people who are most affected. It's them who will push on through these controls, when others might give up. So it's them whose time is being used up most by risk reduction rather than value contribution
Now imagine if one of these companies decided only to hire people who fit the 3 criteria at the top of this post. In theory they would decide to add far fewer controls and their velocity per person would not decline.
The speed of a company like this, once it had become large, an enterprise, would be astonishing.
'But what you're suggesting simply isn't realistic! It would take forever to fill vacancies and they'd grow too slowly. And they'd have to pay everyone a fortune!'
Perhaps. But, if you want to be leaner, or if you are a lean team within a big organisation and want to stay that way, then I suggest a different mindset for hiring new staff.
How to recruit so you don't slow down
When you're hiring, the first conversation you should have with any candidate is about your Vision and Values.
Watch and listen closely as you discuss them. By the end of the conversation, can you tell if that person could be put in a room with some strangers, talking them through why your vision is so smart, answering any awkward questions about it eloquently, because they genuinely get it, and believe in it? If so, regardless of whether they have the specific skills for the job you're hiring for or not, you might want to consider hiring them.
If they DO have the skills for the job, hire them immediately.
You can be confident that they will deliver at least 2x the value of someone with similar skills who doesn't have an appreciation of WHY you are asking them to do the work they are doing. If they don't know WHY, and especially if they don't mind not knowing WHY, then I promise you'll be looking at their work in future and wondering WHY on earth they think you should be impressed with it.
Someone who does know WHY, who cares WHY, who can't stand working on something without knowing WHY, someone like that will have a constant conversation with themselves as they work, about wether or not their work will deliver what it truly needs to deliver.
They will end up knowing more about the effect of their work than you do, and they will suggest better ways of delivering the objective that their work is aimed at delivering.
They will end up being critical to your business, so you should pay them well. Not market rate. Top rate.
If, however, you decide you only need 10% of your workforce to display this behaviour, then you will be forced to have them manage the other 90%, just to make the 90% deliver something average.
So now your superstar 10% aren't delivering brilliant stuff any more, they're working too hard turning poor stuff into average stuff. Happy with yourself?
You can even help yourself decide which candidates are worth talking to in the first place by following Nir Eyal's advice and abolishing the usual reference check. Replace it instead with a carefully worded email, that tells referees to reply only if they consider the candidate:
'to be an exceptional employee, in the top 10% of the people you've worked with'
..and that..
'if you found their work to be less than exceptional, go ahead and disregard this message and have a great day'.
Nir calls this his "average-need-not-apply method"
And if you think this can only work for startups then read this (pretty long, but worth it) Netflix presentation titled 'Freedom and Responsibility', and you'll see that it seems to be working pretty well for them too.
Essentially, you need the majority of your workforce to display the right values. Companies that follow this path are able to trust their workforce enough not to have to control them and slow them down with extra process. They therefore move quickly towards their vision.
True, they look smug, but forgive them. They can't help it.

As a landlord, it is imperative that you understand the landlord-tenant laws in your state. Not only do you need to know what is legally required of you, but you must also know what is legally required and expected of your tenants. Knowing and following Arkansas' laws will help minimize disputes with your tenants. Here are a tenant's basic rights in the state of Arkansas.

Arkansas Tenants' Right to Equal Opportunity Housing

The Federal Fair Housing Act was created to help prevent discrimination in housing-related activities. This includes activities such as buying a house, obtaining a mortgage and renting an apartment. This Act protects certain classes of people. The classes protected under this act include:

Color

Disability (Physical and Mental)

Familial Status

National Origin

Race

Religion

Sex

Arkansas' fair housing law does not protect any additional classes besides the seven already protected under the Federal Fair Housing Act.

Landlords must treat all prospective tenants and current tenants equally. A landlord cannot deny a prospective tenant housing because he or she is physically disabled. The landlord is required to make reasonable accommodations to allow the tenant to reside in the property.

A landlord may not raise a tenant's rent in an attempt to force the tenant out because the landlord does not like their religious views. A landlord cannot place a for rent ad that says tenants with children need not apply. A landlord cannot refuse to rent to an otherwise qualified applicant because the landlord does not like the color of their skin.

Arkansas Tenants' Right to the Security Deposit

18-16-301 through 18-16-306

Arkansas landlords are allowed to require a tenant to provide a security deposit before allowing the tenant to move into the unit. Under Arkansas state law, a landlord may not charge a tenant more than two months' rent as a security deposit. The landlord is allowed to charge less than two months' rent if he or she desires.

Arkansas does not have many rules when it comes to how a landlord must store a tenant's security deposit and the communication the landlord must have with the tenant. The deposit does not have to be kept in an interest-bearing account, the landlord does not have to provide written notice to the tenant after receipt of the deposit and a walk through inspection is not required prior to a tenant move out.

A right the tenant does have under Arkansas landlord-tenant law is the return of the portion of the deposit that is owed to them once they have vacated the unit. An Arkansas landlord must provide a written itemized statement of any deductions that have been taken from the security deposit, as well as the remainder of the security deposit and send it via first class mail to the last known address of the tenant. The landlord has up to 60 days after tenant move-out to do this.

Arkansas Tenants' Right to Rent Disclosure

18-17-401; 18-17-701

Arkansas' landlord-tenant law gives the tenant the right to rent disclosure. Specific terms relating to the rent must be disclosed in the lease agreement. If they are not disclosed, the rent terms will be considered the default terms which are spelled out in Arkansas' landlord-tenant law. These terms can include when rent will be paid, how rent will be paid and the length of the lease agreement.

Tenants in Arkansas are given a five day grace period from the date their rent is due to pay the rent. If the tenant does not pay the rent within this five day period, the landlord may terminate the rental agreement.

Arkansas Tenants' Right in Cases of Domestic Violence

18-16-112

In Arkansas, individuals who have been victims of domestic violence have certain rights. A landlord cannot deny tenancy to a prospective tenant based solely on the fact that they are a victim of domestic violence. The landlord may also not terminate a current tenant's lease because they have been a victim of domestic violence. Under Arkansas law, tenants who have been victims of domestic violence are entitled to have their locks changed, at their expense, as long as they notify the landlord of their desire to have the locks changed.

Arkansas Tenants' Rights When Landlord Requests Entry

18-17-602

Arkansas law does not spell out any specific requirements when it comes to a landlord notifying a tenant before entry. Many states will require a landlord to give a tenant a certain amount of notice before the landlord is allowed to enter the tenant's apartment, but Arkansas law simply states that the landlord must provide reasonable notice. Arkansas does have rules for the times a tenant must allow a landlord to enter their apartment. This includes to perform maintenance and repairs as well as to show the unit to prospective tenants.

Arkansas Tenants' Right to Lead Disclosure

20-27-601 through 20-27-608

Arkansas Code grants tenants certain rights and protections when it comes to lead hazards. Lead-based paint is a concern in homes and buildings constructed before 1978.

Lead is a hazard to people of all ages but is thought to be particularly harmful to children as it can cause developmental disabilities.

If a property is believed to have a lead hazard, the Department of Health is allowed to inspect the premises and then provide the owner with instructions on how to abate the lead hazard. The owner has 30 days after receiving this notice to rectify the problem. Arkansas Code also prohibits a landlord from taking retaliatory actions against a tenant who has complained of a potential lead hazard.

So basically I went on a date about a week ago with girl I met online. I'd like to think the date went pretty okay. I mean, she invited me in afterward and I met all her flatmates. We kissed goodnight on the lips and texted for 2 days after up until I said I'd be in touch over the weekend about date 2 (we roughly set it up during the first date) as I didn't want to be texting her every day.
So what I'm looking for some advice on is what's best. Should I phone her or text her on Sunday night? We're only 22 (whether that makes a difference). Most people seem to think phoning is best. But I'm not sure after one date. I'm confident enough to phone but don't want to freak her out after only one date. As a girl would a guy phoning you for a quick call put you off him? Or would you even answer?
Thanks all for any advice :)

Bhola Mohapatra, who had links with a former deputy mayor of the Calcutta Municipal Corporation, had unleashed a reign of terror in the Chetla-Alipore area in the early 90s. He was involved in cases of extortion and rioting.
Mohapatra was sipping tea at a roadside stall around 7.45 am when four assailants, allegedly with CPM affiliation, walked up to him and shot him from point-blank range.
Mohapatra, 42, chief organiser of Alipore Kalyan Samity, a social workers� association with premises close by, was wounded in the chest and leg. He was rushed to Calcutta Hospital and then to Kothari Medical Research Centre, where doctors declared him dead.
Residents tried to block the intersection, saying Mohapatra had been murdered because he crossed over from the CPM to Trinamul Congress. Policemen from Alipore and New Alipore police stations resorted to a mild lathicharge to have the roadblock lifted, samity secretary Amitabha Roy said.
The deputy commissioner, detective department, Narayan Ghosh, however, said later that the killing was an outcome of a long-standing gang feud. A post mortem would be conducted on the body, he added.
Pronab Dutta, an executive member of the club, said Mohapatra had parked his Zen around 7.30 am on the club premises and walked across the road for his morning cup of tea at the stall. About 15 minutes later, people heard four gunshots. Mohapatra slumped to the ground, while his killers walked away briskly.
The police later named two of them as Kushal Guha, alias Kalu, and Dilip Pramanik, alias Dilua. The other two remain unidentified. �Club-members rushed Mohapatra in a car to hospital. On the way, he was gasping for breath and tried to speak. But he could not,� Dutta added.
Debu Chatterjee, president of the club, said Mohapatra was arranging the annual sports of the club, scheduled between January 22 and 26. As it was a major event, involving hundreds of participants, he had come early to supervise the arrangements, he added.
Kalyan Samity members are at a loss over the motive behind Mohapatra�s murder. According to Debu Chatterjee, �Mohapatra had helped a large number of distressed people in the area. He inspired affection in many, especially among the under-privileged.�
But the members recall that on January 10, 1995, just before the club�s annual sports, Mohapatra was attacked by rivals in front of his house. He had received splinter injuries, but the assailants had gone scot free, the president added. Shops in the area were shut down as a mark of respect to Mohapatra and to protest the crime.
The club president alleged that the police �were not taking steps to nab the assailants. They have not conducted raids so far to track down the killers.�
Actor dies in hospital: Bengali film and stage actor Saumitra Banerjee died at the Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan on Saturday. He was 46. He had been admitted to hospital after a old ailment took a turn for the worse.
This is the first time the district administration has officially turned to the Calcutta VHS Amateur Radio Society for help during the hectic three-day pilgrimage at the shrine of Kapil Muni on Sagar island.
�We have a problem with our overloaded wireless network and the hams will play a key role in the smooth management of the mela,� said Gyanwanth Singh, additional superintendent of police of the district.
There will be nearly half-a-million pilgrims converging on the island from all parts of India.
�We can only speculate on the numbers that are going to come this year,� Singh said.
People reported missing is a major headache for the district police. Getting them back to their groups or family members is no easy task.
With the ham operators exclusively monitoring missing persons at the mela grounds, the island�s embarkation points as well as the entry points for pilgrims in the mainland, the task of re-uniting missing persons with their relatives should be easier, Singh said.
The ham operators will man points at Lot 8, Namkhana on the mainland and Chemaguri, Kachuberia, the district information tower, the bus terminus and the Sagar beach on the island.
�We will also have three roving teams on the mela grounds who will be relayed descriptions of the persons who are missing and they will then correlate the information,� said Indranil Majumdar, one of the team members.
The ham society has put together a 17-member team, which will be provided with accommodation and food by the district administration.
�We had a trial run last year and we found it quite useful,� Majumdar said. Besides, the operators will provide feedback to the information tower about fires being lit where they are not supposed to be, as well as report trouble.
Once harshly critical of computerisation, the mandarins at Writers� Buildings have now decided not to lag behind Andhra Pradesh�s aggressive IT policy.
As part of its policy, the government plans to draw up, implement and monitor all state-run projects through its computer network. Even routine administrative tasks will be conducted through e-mail, voice mail, video conferencing and the Internet.
The IT department has been entrusted with an IAS officer, P. Banamali. A minister with independent charge of the new department will be chosen at the next Cabinet meeting.
The process has been expedited by chief minister Jyoti Basu, who emphasised the need to switch over to IT to bring speed and transparency to government activities.
The IT policy was drafted by a 23-member task force, headed by chief secretary Manish Gupta. The creation of an exclusive department was part of the task force�s recommendations. An independent website, www.westbengal.gov.in, and an e-mail address, prsecycm @ wb.nic.in, have been launched from January 1, 2000.
According to the policy, all government departments, including those in the districts, will be networked with the computers in Calcutta. Besides, all departments and organisations will be connected on e-mail for quicker interaction between one another.
Each department will have a chief information technology officer for monitoring and implementation of IT applications.
The network will interlink all the government departments, organisations, corporations, development agencies and financial institutions. The government will also set up an independent, wireless satellite-based communications system which will not only provide connectivity to remote locations but also remain operational during emergencies.
The state police communications network will also benefit from the system. Control centres at district headquarters and police stations will be provided with telephone connections, fax machines and a personal computer with Internet connection.
Vehicle registration, land records, birth and death registration, employment exchanges, payment of excise duty, sales tax and income-tax, payment of electricity and telephone bills, civic taxes, work of police stations and various police departments will be carried out through the electronic system.
�We need not search hundreds of dusty files and wait for months to get any information either on availability of land or a crime record. Whatever we want to know will be made available to us within a second and at the press of a computer button,�� said A.K. Deb, principal secretary to the chief minister.
All major government policies, Acts, regulations and notifications will be made available to the public through e-mail, the Internet and public terminals.
A number of terminals, to be called service delivery points, will be set up at government offices and other convenient locations for easy popular access. The government also plans to set up such terminals at all public call offices (PCOs) and telephone booths, with help from the Centre.
To implement the policy, a massive training programme will be launched for government employees. The state has decided to introduce IT degree and diploma courses at all engineering colleges, polytechnics and specialised institutions to meet the demand for the IT professionals.
Actor Mithun Chakraborty is chief patron of the society. �I am always available for whatever is done for the good of Bengal,� Mithun said during the inaugural meeting on Friday.
�We must break the myth that we are not capable (of providing proper treatment). The members of this society are not what they are by fluke. We must also break the myth that once a person has contracted the disease, it is only a certain type of water or God who can cure it. The cure is available in Calcutta now,� he said.
In fact, bone marrow transplants, a very fragile and costly treatment, will very soon be conducted at Kothari Medical Centre. �This is the first such society in India,� said Asis Mukherjee, consultant haematologist, who will be conducting the first transplants.
Thalassaemia, another genetic blood disorder common in Bengal, is another area of battle for the society,� said Sharmila Chandra, who was instrumental in forming the Thalassaemia Society of India almost 20 years ago.
The society will make available to needy patients the latest advances in leukaemia treatment. �For this, a fund will be set up, part of which will be earmarked for research work.�
The forum will bring together pathologists, researchers and haematologists from different institutions in the city to pool resources. �With 80 per cent leukaemia cases now curable, this will be a great boon,� said Sukumar Mukherjee, consultant physician.
All members agreed the society would be a step towards �stopping the Netralaya or Vellore Express from leaving Bengal.�
Giving details, police sources said a passenger jeep carrying Bengali traders from Khowai town left for Asharambari area at around 11 am today.
As the jeep reached the remote Amtoli area, 1.5 km ahead of Bachaibari, at 12.30 pm, a group of suspected Tiger Force militants perched atop elevated land beside the road fired on the tyres of the jeep and brought it to a halt. The jeep was heavily damaged. The militants got down, dragged jeep driver Lulu Das out and assaulted him. When the driver tried to escape, the rebels shot him dead from point blank range.
Taking advantage of the confusion, the other passengers also tried to escape but were mowed down on the spot. The victims were identified as Narayan Das, Manoranjan Shabar, Manik Santal and Ramlal Gour.
The spot where the incident occurred is very close to the Bangladesh border. It is covered by Assam Rifles jawans and a BSF patrol.
Shortly after the ambush, BSF and Assam Rifles jawans reached the spot. They made arrangements to send two injured persons, Dipti Roy and Param Telenga, to G.B. Hospital in Agartala in a critical condition. Two other injured persons, Pusparani Das and Nepal Das, were admitted to Khowai hospital.
The other two injured persons have not been identified yet. Sources said the suspected Tiger Force militants sneaked into Bangladesh after carrying out the attack.
After being informed of the incident, superintendent of police (West) Rajiv Singh rushed to the spot with reinforcements. However, no one has been arrested so far. Security forces have launched a combing operation in the border areas.
With today�s killing, altogether eight persons have fallen to militants� bullets since the beginning of this year. Inspector-general of police (law and order) K. Salim Ali said the identity of the militants was still not clear. He said, �Generally Tiger Force militants sneak into Bangladesh after launching attacks in these areas while NLFT rebels retreat into the state�s jungles.�
Two abducted: Two boys were kidnapped yesterday by suspected tribal militants from Kalanchoura area of West Tripura.
Police sources said two Bengali youth, Ram Sarkar, 15, and Narayan Sarkar, 16, who had gone to nearby Gaitamura area to tend cows, were kidnapped from there by suspected militants. Their relatives in Kalanchoura area informed the Boxanagar police station.
Officers and jawans of Boxanagar police station carried out combing operations but the two youth are still untraced.
The churches are protesting against what they called continuous harassment of Christian community and threat to churches by the Regional Development Authority (RRDA) and its vice-chairman, Alok Goel.
Sources in the oldest church in Chotanagpur and Assam, the Gossner Evangelical Lutheran (GEL) Church, said hundreds of devout Christians from all the churches would assemble before the GEL Church shopping complex at the Main Road here on Saturday to pray for forgiveness of corrupt people and to prevent the RRDA vice-chairman from carrying out his threat of demolishing Church property.
The move by the Ranchi churches comes in the wake of threats issued by the RRDA, the regulatory body which oversees development activities in the district, that it would demolish a portion of the illegally constructed GEL Church shopping complex at Main Road here on Saturday.
However, GEL Church authorities alleged that despite complying with all the laws of the land, threats of demolition were issued to them following their refusal to �satisfy� corrupt RRDA officials.
The GEL Church has written to the Centre requesting its intervention.
Police sources told newsmen that one Chitta Das, a resident of Kathaliacherra under Santir Bazar police station of south Tripura, was abducted on November 23, 1998 by a group of militants. He was released on December 6 that year after payment of ransom.
Sources said shortly after the abduction, the Santir Bazar police station registered a case and finally arrested two militants, Parshuram Reang and Sanjit Reang. After more than a year�s trial, the additional district judge of south Tripura presiding over the Belonia session court sentenced the two militants to life imprisonment for abduction. The culprits were also awarded five more years in prison and a cash fine of Rs 5,000 was imposed on each for illegal possession of firearms.
In 1985, erstwhile Tripura National Volunteers (TNV) commander Chuni Koloi was awarded the life term on a variety of charges including murder.
Ever since the third Left Front government headed by Dasharath Deb came to power in Tripura in April 1993, abduction of civilians has become a money-spinning business for militant outfits of Tripura.
Thousands of people including tea planters, businessmen and government officials have been kidnapped by militants over the past six years and later released on payment of ransom.
The notice has landed the couple in a fresh controversy even as their plea to waive the Rs 40 lakh, which the department had asked them to pay in connection with earlier tax returns, remains pending. Referring to Laloo�s earlier statement that the Rs 10 lakh he had earned were proceeds from his dairy business, an income tax official said, �Now, as per their statement, there is no dairy business. How will they justify their income of Rs 10 lakh now?�
Assessing the tax returns filed for the year 1996-97, the department said that there was no way the first couple could now justify their extra income as all their dairy investments had already been made. �Laloo Prasad Yadav cannot claim that the income accrued from the dairy business he had talked about earlier,� the officer said. While the tax noose hangs over their head, the couple�s lawyers are struggling to stop the department from attaching their properties for defaulting on their Rs 40 lakh payment.
Though the RJD chief had moved the authorities, including the Central Board of Direct Taxes, seeking a stay on the order, his pleas were rejected. Tax officials said the appellate wing of the income tax department, to which Laloo had appealed as a last resort, was unlikely to reverse the order of the superior benches. �He is clearly buying time. He knows that this appellate wing cannot reverse earlier orders. But we are in no great hurry too,� the officer said. If the appellate body rejects Laloo�s plea, income tax officials will swoop down on his personal properties � his two houses in Patna, the ancestral house in Phulwari and the plots he has purchased on the outskirts of the city.
�Once we attach the properties, the owners cannot transfer it. The report will then be submitted to the court,� the officer said.
Regarding expenses incurred during their daughter�s wedding, the department has received a �partial reply� from Laloo and Rabri Devi. The couple said Misa�s marriage had cost them a little over Rs 7 lakh which they raised from party workers, MLAs and other sources. Though the couple said they would give a full account by the middle of this month, the Rs 7-lakh estimate has not convinced tax officials. �We have documentary evidence, including video tapes of every little item used during the ceremony. And we will make our own estimate,� an officer said.
The department is now going through documents to establish the market rate of the items and are also interrogating the suppliers. It has already questioned over 100 persons. Sources say once the department receives Laloo�s reply, it will wait for the couple�s income tax returns for 1998-99 and slap them with additional taxes after estimating their �undisclosed income�. Laloo�s lawyers said the tax dispute would be a long-drawn battle.
Sonia visit: AICC president Sonia Gandhi will visit north and south Bihar areas during her four-day campaign for the Assembly elections from January 17, reports UNI. The campaign will be in two phases. She will launch the campaign from Darbhanga on January 17 followed by Purnea.
Frightened officials and residents of neighbouring villages are staying clear of Polang following unfounded tales of �berserk� spirits running amok. Even two-and-a-half months after the cyclone battered Polang and killed most of the people, the handful of survivors have not received any aid.
�No one is coming here for fear of ghosts. But there are no ghosts,� said Palash Burman, a village youth. �The location of our village inside a jungle has added to the fear.�
Burman lost his father and his three nieces to tidal waves which swamped Polang on October 29. �If there were ghosts, I would have seen them by now at night,� he said. But residents of Nuagaon, a neighbouring village, refused to buy Burman�s tale. �Most of the people living there have died and their spirits roam even at during the day,� said Nuagaon resident Suresh Tarai.
Tarai said some people from Nuagaon tried to visit the village a few days ago, but returned scared. �As these people approached the village, they heard a hissing voice asking them to go away instantly.� Other residents of Nuagaon said they heard that ghosts of the cyclone victims were �running amok� in Polang and threatened to kill any outsider trying to enter the village.
Polang resembles a ghost village, lost in a jungle of uprooted trees sprawled at crazy angles.
All the 54 families have lost someone or other and the village is strewn with human skeletons and skulls.
�Those were my father�s,� Burman said, pointing to a few burnt bones lying in a field. �I found his rotting body 5 km away a few days after the cyclone. I dragged it back and cremated him.�
Desperate villagers climbed Jhau and coconut trees to flee the surging sea. But most trees, groaning under the weight of survivors, collapsed drowning villagers in the process.
Residents said they were forgotten because the village spokesperson, panchayat member Mutha Murmu, died in the cyclone. �There is no one plead on our behalf,�� said Gopal Behera.
Most of the residents were fishermen and landless labourers. The landless labourers worked in the betel farms. But the farms were destroyed in the cyclone. �All our boats and fishing nets have been destroyed and we need them to eke out a living,� said Sudam Das, a fisherman.

This has been one amazing Christmas!
First, thank God. Tyler, his brothers and Nathan have had the best Christmas ever. Their laughter and smiles showed how much they loved it. The fire departments for both Tigerville and Greenville teamed up with Mr. Wilkson's family, church and neighbors, along with the Elves and Courageous Kids of Charleston. There were lots of surprises we didn't know about.
Around 4, the boys heard something, looked out the door, and a big fire truck has backed up to the door. They were so excited but couldn't stay out long because it was so cold and raining. Our house filled with fire fighters, presents and food!
I think they all did their 27 acts of kindness. Thank you all so much!
The kids will remember this Christmas, and it was all because there are so many people that care. I know that they will never have a Christmas like this again. It was just awesome.
There are lots of angels out there that love Tyler, no matter what happens in the next surgery. We know that his angels will be right there with us through it all in spirit.
Even though Tyler is a really sick little boy, we understand that there are so many out there that need help. We know that a lot of families lost their love ones this Christmas.
And I think God sent you all to Tyler's family to show how many really care. God placed you all in Tyler's life.
God bless Dr. Rodriguez. He told us he will never give up on Tyler. I truly love Dr. Rodriguez. The South Carolina doctors told us there was nothing that could be done for Tyler.
To Tyler's angels, you all have stuck with us for nine years. What an awesome bunch of caring angels out there!
We also received a lot of gift cards, just to name a few; Game Stop, Little Cesar's Pizza, Bo Jangles, Subway, Wal-mart and Target from a family that has a five year old with a brain tumor. We also received a gift card from the Charleston Elves and Courageous Kids. Ashley bought groceries with it.
Part of the gift cards are going to help out in Maryland when Tyler has his jaw replacement surgery, coming up soon. We have no date for the surgery yet, but the jaw is made for Tyler. We will call for the appointment and surgery dates.
Tyler still has a wonderful present coming. He will be going to Give Kids the World on January 5 – 12. The Marty Lions Club and his doctor are giving our family an expense free trip to Disney.
The doctors think Tyler needs this before he has this surgery. They could only let seven stay at Give Kids the World, so Tyler's dad and grandpa will be home house sitting. Besides, Tyler's dad Richie is still having trouble with his back. He deosn't think he can make the trip, so he said I could take his place. It was really nice of him.
George, Nathan, Tyler Jayden, Ashley, and Ethan have all had the flu. I sure hope everyone stays well for our trip.
I'm hoping that someone might have an iPad or Kindle out there that they are not using. I can try to buy one if it's cheap. Mine has broken and I wish I could find one to take with us.
Please never give up on Tyler. I know that God answers prayers. With each surgery, we wonder if Tyler will make it. There are always lots of tears, but God is always with us.
I told everyone about Tyler's out of the body experience before. He said he came out of his body and floated toward a light. He said he looked back and Mom and Nanny were crying . He said that he knew right then that he had to go back to his body.
I know through God and all Tyler's angels, Tyler is still here a fighter.
Please kiss your kids and tell them you love them. You don't know what tomorrow will bring. Even if you're upset with your grown children, make a call and just say, "I love you."
If you want to help Tyler and his family, you can donate through PayPal or mail.

Hello everyone ,
Sorry I haven't updated Tyler's page in a while. This computer is so old, I think over 10 years, and it doesn't want to work.
First I want to say that I am praying for all the families who don't have their loved ones with them for Christmas. God be with them. Oh, how they are hurting. I cannot imagine the pain the moms and dads in Newtown are feeling. God, please guide them; wrap your arms around them and comfort them as we celebrate the birth of Jesus.
Tyler is still having pain in both legs, and he'll have to go to a pain management clinic for his jaw. He's a strong little boy. Tyler has lost some weight. He's already so skinny. He takes pain medication every day.
Tyler had a visitor come to meet him and his brothers from the Cancer Society. Mr. Wilkins, we enjoyed your visit and are so glad that you got to meet our family. God places people in Tyler's life for a reason. Mr. Wilkins said he has some surprises for Tyler. Will post about that later.
I want to thank each of you for all your love and support of Tyler and our family. We made the trip to Charleston and picked up Santa toys for the boys from the Charleston Elves.
We are so grateful to Courageous Kids for putting our kids on their list. Their kindness was overwhelming, and they made a lot of families happy. Our kids will have a wonderful Christmas because you all cared.
Merry Christmas and God bless.
Also, I want to thank everyone for their donations. I know in my heart that God has placed you all in Tyler's life. You are his angels. God has blessed us. It all will be used on Christmas or put in Tyler's account for his upcoming surgery. God hears your prayers.
Tyler loves all the cards and letters from the children.
I hope that each of you have a wonderful Christmas and that God spreads many blessings your way. You are our family in Jesus Christ and we love you all. Once again, no matter how you have helped, we thank you.
Tyler's journey is not over, but I know that he will be okay because I have so much faith. God has been with us through 9 years. I will keep my faith and know that God is in control.
Once again, thanks for always being here for Tyler and our family. We love you all so much. Please kiss your kids, because you don't know what tomorrow may bring.
And say an extra prayer for all the families at Newtown who lost their kids.
Also, thanks to Katie McRae, a little girl who was diagnosed with a brain tumor at age five. Thanks for all the gift cards. What a surprise this was! One of gods little angels: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/mcraekate/mystory.

Hello everyone.
Tyler is doing okay. Ashley had to get more pain medication because Tyler's jaw and legs have been hurting more than usual. I guess it's the cold weather.
He's looking forward to Christmas and his trip to Disney thanks to the Marty Lions Foundation. We will be at Give Kids the World on January 5th. I pray he will be able to go. It's a long trip and we will be driving. Marty Lions Foundation is renting a large van so the kids will be comfortable and we can take Tyler's wheel chair.
The boys are all excited. Tyler's dad can't go because he's still having trouble with his back. He fell and broke it a few months ago, so he will be house sitting. God is good and has blessed us in so many ways …thanks to Tyler's Angels, all the kids will have a great Christmas.
Thank you all for your donations. You all have made things so much better in Tyler's life and his family's. We will contact Dr Rodriguez as soon as we get back from Disney so Tyler can get his surgery date. His jaw is being made and should be ready soon. Thank god that we have Dr Rodriguez and his team!
Tyler's surgery is going to be another long, rough battle, but my boy is strong and I have enough faith to know that God will be in control. It's just so hard to see Tyler looking lifeless with all the tubes and needles . Dr. Rodriguez told me he will never give up on Tyler and I know that one day, he will fix Tyler's jaw and Tyler will have a normal life. I also know that all Tyler's angels will be with him in spirit.
As usual , I am worried about Tyler. I know in my heart that he will be okay. It seems like everyone here is coming down with the flu, starting with Tyler, then Jayden had it, then Ashley and now Ethan has it … passing it around I guess.
Also, Mrs. Bright, (Tyler's home bound teacher ) thank you for making the wonderful poster for us. You did a great job, and Tyler loves you so much!
Thank each of you, and I hope you have the best Christmas ever. I know Tyler and his brothers will, because his angels care.
Merry Christmas, be safe, and if you are going to be donating this year Tyler's family, we can sure use the help. If you want to donate to an organization, please remember Courageous Kids and the Greenville County Cancer Society. They have helped us in so many ways through the years.

Tyler is now in remission. This doesn't mean he is cured or better in any way. Sadly, The cancer has done so much damage to Tyler's little body.
He has been through 55 surgeries, facing #56. We will have to take him to MUSC for scans and Maryland for treatments and surgeries. He will spend his entire life going through this. He will never be 100% better, as the doctors told us. He has had a lung removed, and 1/2 of his leg bone taken out to replace his jaw (from both legs). This now causes Tyler to hurt when he walks. Tyler had to be home bound from school. He has a wonderful teacher that comes out. He loves Mrs. Bright so much.
Once again, his jaw replacement with the leg bone isn't working , nor is anything else that the doctors have tried, so they have to fix that again. Not only this, but Tyler tends to get sick often and can only eat soft foods. His face stays swollen on one side and pulls sideways, making his whole face hurt. He cannot do things like normal kids because of these things. We also have been told he maybe never able to have babies when he is older.
The cancer he had isn't like common cancers. The doctors told us Tyler wasn't suppose to live. We are very lucky to have him. I know he is going to make it!!!!!! He's been fighting nine years now.
The chance of Tyler's cancer coming back is very high, but we think he will be fine because we are trying so hard to get support for him, and having the whole world caring about him. We have hope, and Tyler is a warrior!
Be sure to leave a note in my Guest book (both TYLERTUCKER.COM and Caring Bridge) Poor Tyler's been through a lot and could sure use some cheery mail to remind him that he's special and loved by God and all the angels that God has placed in his life. Share a little joy with Tyler by sending him some "happy mail." he loves cards, and Christmas is here in four short weeks. Reading Christmas cards would be great!
We love you all!

Hello everyone,
This will be a short update; there's not much to tell. Things are just about the same as when I last updated. Tyler is still taking his medication for pain. His dad is still hurting from a broken back. On top of that, Ashley got an infection from getting her tooth pulled and ended up at the ER. Jayden, Nathan and Ethan are doing great, thank God.
Tyler wants me to take him shopping and let him get some Christmas gifts. This was strange. He never asks to go shopping. Tyler said he wants to buy for his brothers and himself. I didn't have the heart to tell him we don't have the money. I tried to change his mind and told him we would have to push him in his wheelchair because he wouldn't be able to walk that long, and that there would be bunches of people there. I think he saw a black Friday commercial on TV.
I don't think I will be able to take him. Finances are really low and he has surgery coming up as soon as they get his new jaw made.
I have my faith, and I will pray about this one. Can you believe Christmas is only four weeks away?
We had all eight grand kids over yesterday. What a blessing in my life!
Thanks to all of Tylers angels. Please keep praying. We hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Please be safe.
We love and appreciate you all so much. I know in my heart that your prayers have kept Tyler with us.

Hey guys! Long time no see
I havent posted in a while... been shooting film mostly, so I hope you don't mind the analog photos! I met a few cool people and had a few interesting events happen in the past while...
From the M5 and the Zeiss 28 Biogon and 35 Summaron!
I had a watch that needed repairing (a Seiko Bellmatic from '71), and I heard that the best watchmaker in Toronto was Shane Ede. I gave him a call and he told me to pay him a visit.
I waited for him at his doorstep, thinking "man it's cold... where is this guy?!" A few minutes later the door swung open and an old man stood behind it with a big smile, and said "hello! Come on in!" I shook his hand, and stepped in with my family.
He showed us to his office, a small room with a CD collection covering one wall, cabinets filled with watches covering two adjacent walls, and his work bench opposite to the CD's. He sat down and looked at the Seiko while I paced around the room looking at all the watches in the room. An Omega Speedmaster caught my eye.
He tinkered with my watch a bit and told me that the watch has some damage to it, it looked as if someone who was inexperienced took it apart and messed with it, put it back together, and sold it. I asked what could be done, "source parts and repair it... but it won't be cheap. Just buy another Bellmatic, there are tons out there." he said.
I told him I'm happy with this watch, and I'd rather start saving for a Speedmaster. He looked at me and said... "Be careful. It's a shame that you're into this hobby... it's a very slippery slope, and there are many bad people out there who only care about making money."
He told me to never buy a watch from India unless the seller is willing to take a refund. The watches there are legit, even the vintage ones (left over by the british), but are usually water-logged and have irrepairable damage done to them by the high humidty and moisture.
He told me to never buy a new Omega because the Swatch Group has replaced all the quality movements with standard ETA "swiss" movements "made in China that are worth only $25". He told me a story of his friend, a collector, who took his Seamaster to Omega's repair facility to have it serviced. He saw a row of 5 chinese workers and asked them how much they made. When he discovered that they made minimum wage doing services that Omega charges $500 for, he told off the manager and swore never to buy another watch again. "They charge you $500, then give the watch to a repairman who gets paid $10 an hour. There's no motivation to do quality work." In other words, you get charged $500 for a $50 job.
"It's a slippery slope, and you have to be careful." He said. "I don't want to see people getting scammed."
I thought about what he said, and in all honesty... I don't doubt him. I've never been attracted to new watches because they're over-priced chunks of steel with standard movements found in every other watch. Buying a $500 Longines might as well be the same as buying a $1000+ Bell and Ross if you're still getting some stock ETA movement.
I asked him which watch in this room is his. "None of them! I don't own a watch!" he said. Surprised, I asked him how he got into this hobby. "By accident. I do it because I find it fun!"
Shane Ede is one of the most happy, kind, and genuine people I've met. He'd give up a potential customer just to make sure that a young man doesn't get scammed, doesn't get addicted to the hobby.
I left him another watch, one I bought for my father, with him. I hope to get it back soon, and I have no doubt that he'll do a quality job on it! "$60, that's how much it'll be... I can bring it to your office. I've been riding my bike a lot lately and it's just down the road."
I was on the subway one morning and noticed a father and his son sitting across from me. The child was curious and energetic, looking all over the train and pointing at all the ads, asking what they meant. The father was patient, explaining to the child everything he asked, and entertaining the child as he stared out the window of the moving train.
It seemed to me that the child was only so happy and curious because his father showed him that he loved him.
It made me thankful that I had loving parents.
My parents weren't too happy with me this saturday morning. They sat me down to talk to me about certain photographs of Hillary I uploaded that might bring harm to her. I could tell by their expressions that they were angry. But they never yelled at me... they told me about the photos they saw, but didn't scold me. Instead they asked me... why. I told them why, and I told them that Hillary had given me her permission to upload them, and when she didn't want me to upload certain photos, she would tell me and I would comply.
They told me they weren't happy that I hid the photos and certain intimate aspects of my life from them. I told them I was sorry, I just didn't know how to tell them and I didn't want them to think of my relationship with Hillary as anything less than it is. So I came clean and told him everything about my relationship with Hillary, even the more intimate aspects of it (of course, not in detail. I'm sure they DON'T wanna know that!)
"Do you love her?" My dad asked me. I said yes. I asked him when he knew he was going to marry mom. "We met when we were 19, just like you. I dated mom hoping to marry her. Why waste time and risk hurting others if you didn't intend to marry?" He told me how they always worked together towards marriage.
I told him something similar. That in highschool I dated because I was lonely, but my previous girlfriend was the one that made me consider dating for marriage. That when we broke up, and when I found Hillary, I knew that I wouldn't date her unless I wanted to marry her. That we work together towards our goal of marriage.
He said that he knew and he understood, that he was happy to know that I am serious about Hillary, that we were working towards marriage. Then he referenced the photographs again, and said this:
"If you guys get married, I wouldn't want anybody to use those photos to hurt my daughter-in-law. I don't want her to face that."
I realized he was right, and so I agreed to remove them.
"At this table, nobody knows who's right and wrong, nobody is better and wiser than the other. We just want to have a discussion." And I'm glad they meant that.
"From the first week you began dating, the first time we dropped her off at her appartment, we could tell that she loved you more than you loved her. She looked back as we drove away, waving at us while you went back to sleep. I told mom that I was worried about you, that you would hurt Hillary."
I'm happy to know that I have parents that care about Hillary as well, that look out for her even if it means standing up against me and telling me I was wrong. I'm happy to know that I have parents that chose to converse with me instead of yelling at me.

Two other pics from my favourite stay in Italy near Gaeta with view to Ischia and along the coastline towards Naples. You can find here mountains from sea level up to 1.400 m with pristine nature, long beaches, excellent seafood and pasta, Rome by train only two hours, Naples one and a half hours away, 40 km to the famous Abbey of Monte Cassino ...
Yes, you are right - I really love this corner of Italy !

Thanks for the comments, all And I like that suggestion that david mentioned... inviting you all to our big day It'd be really nice to meet all of you someday.
With regards to the story behind the photo... maybe some of you can see it, maybe not, but there's a lot more behind it than just the issue of the photos, but the photos did play a big part in the events that have happened in our (Hillary and mine) lives recently. I think one thing everyone could learn is that listening is the solution to many of the relationship issues/roadblocks/problems we face in our lives. My parents weren't always that understanding and open-minded, and neither was I. Hillary's parents certainly aren't. Without disclosing too much detail, I guess I'd like to say that listening helps you avoid a lot of the pain and harsh confrontation that come with relationship issues, and in many cases... nobody has more authority over another, no matter how much older, wiser, and more experienced.
There are a few adults in my life, my parents being two of them, and our very own Rob T Wilson being another, that seem to understand these concepts. I've never felt insignificant, small, inexperienced, or... "under-qualified" when talking to these people. I've always been able to have good, strong, and meaningful discussions with these adults, and that's something I'm thankful for. On the other hand, I've heard other adults say that I should (word for word) "fear and respect" them, that they're "30 years older and know more than you do." And all I've seen that mentality do is hurt others.
Back to the photos though
David, your black and white's of the bradbury are probably some of my favourite photos from you. They capture such a film noir feel that I've associated with the building... it feels like those photos could be stills from a Bladerunner remake :P
Moh, those "three little dudes" have to be the cutest dashboard decorations I've ever seen!
Edward, those photos from the market are amazing, vibrant and full of energy!

My boyfriend and I have been together for about a month now, but I feel like i'm single. He only texts me 1-2 a day and says that he doesn't like talking on the phone. He lives in a dorm and goes to Stanford University (a very hard school) and says he's busy with his studies. I drove 1 hr and 30 mjn to see him three times, but he hasn't seen me once because he doesn't have a car and lives near his school. I feel like he's not as invested in the relationship? Or am I overthinking it? What should I do
Most Helpful Guy
I was in a very similar situation with a girl recently. I got to the point where I just stopped sending messages entirely. We haven't talked in days now, have no idea what's up but whatever.00|00|0
Why did you stop messaging her?
Because she wasn't really responding to any of my texts at all. It just got to the point where I was like why am I even doing this anymore? I'm trying to talk to someone who obviously has no interest in talking to me so why am I even wasting my time with this? So I said Im not gonna send her a message until she sends me one first. It's been like 5 days now si apparently I was right and she really had no desire to talk to me.
Most Helpful Girl
I'm exactly in the same situation and I stop sending messages, he never text back, and now it's has pass 3 weeks, and he's gone, I just continue with my life. So girl, just do the same.00|00|0

Holyhead is the largest town on Holy Island in the Isle of Anglesey, Wales. With a population of 11,431 in 2011, the town is home to a busy ferry port, with frequent ferries to Ireland and European destinations. Although Holyhead once thrived due to its aluminium manufacturing industry, today many locals are employed in roles in shipping or the transport sector, or at the retail parks in the area.
So if you have been injured in an accident at work and you're looking for an accident solicitor in Holyhead, you can get in touch with Accident Advice Helpline, as we have helped people across the country claim compensation after their accident.
Injured at work
There's no denying that some jobs are more dangerous than others – for example if you regularly work with heavy machinery or vehicles, you may be more at risk of serious injury than somebody who works in an office. But if you have been injured in an accident at work, what can you do about it? If you believe your employer is at fault and you're concerned about workplace safety, you could report them to the Health and Safety Executive, who may carry out their own investigations. Then you could find out if you're eligible to claim personal injury compensation.
It might be that you have suffered serious injuries whilst working in the transport sector, or sustained minor injuries after an accident in a shop. Whatever has happened, you don't need to hire an accident solicitor in Holyhead to handle your claim – you can trust Accident Advice Helpline to get you the compensation you deserve.
Loss of earnings
One reason why many people who have been injured at work avoid making a claim for personal injury compensation is because they have been affected financially by loss of earnings. If you're worried about how you will afford to pay fees to an accident solicitor in Holyhead, let us stop you right there. Accident Advice Helpline's lawyers work on a 100% no win, no fee* basis, so however you have been injured, you could claim compensation for your loss of earnings, pain and suffering without losing sleep over legal fees.
You can call our freephone helpline today on 0800 689 0500 to find out if you could make a claim after your accident. Don't forget there is a three-year time limit in place to make a claim, so don't wait too long or you could miss out.

Ottawa Authorities have recovered a purse that belonged to Doris E. Branson, a rural Ottawa woman who was murdered at her home March 20, according to the Franklin County Sheriff's officer in charge of the investigation.
Capt. Craig Davis said a Baker University student found the purse April 6 in a ditch on the east side of Douglas County Road 1055 about six miles south of Baldwin. The student initially discarded some of the contents, but eventually turned everything in to the Baldwin Police Department, which handed the purse over to the Franklin County Sheriff's Office on April 7, he said.
Davis said the purse was taken from Branson's home the day of the homicide, and it appeared to contain all the original contents, including a small amount of cash. Officers were unable to determine if anything else was stolen from the house during the burglary.
Officers conducted a check lane at the location where the purse was found for four hours Friday to ask motorists if they had witnessed any suspicious activity between Baldwin and LeLoup Road in rural Ottawa since March 20, Davis said.
"We're still looking for anyone who could say they saw the purse or that the purse definitely wasn't there between March 20 and last Monday," he said.
The sheriff's department has established a secret witness hot line, which allows callers to remain anonymous. The number is 1-242-4502.
The department also is offering an award of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest in the case.
Branson, 45, died at her home, four miles north and west of Ottawa, after being stabbed several times.

Roy Cummings of the Tampa Tribune reports that the Buccaneers have officially asked CB Ronde Barber to return for another season. Bucs G.M. Mark Dominik announced the following this morning: "Coach (Greg) Schiano and I met with Ronde this past week and expressed our desire for him to return to play another season with the Buccaneers. He asked us for some time to make his decision and we certainly respect that." Barber, 37, has said that he expects to take his time making a decision on whether or not return next season. "They want me to play, but they have left it up to me like they have pretty much every year," Barber said, via Tampa Bay Times. "I've got time, so I'm going to take my time." It's actually somewhat surprising that the Buccaneers are so interest in retaining Barber for another season. He was clearly a liability in coverage and against the run. It's really hard to imagine him getting much better at 38 years old. The post Buccaneers Ask Ronde Barber To Return For Another Season appeared first on NFL Trade Rumors -.
