A version of this review of the Catwoman movie ran several years back in the Chicago Reader.
Bad As It Wants To Be
Some of the earliest sexual fantasies I can remember involve Catwoman. Specifically, they center around a Batman audio recording I listened to when I was eight or younger. I can't remember where I was at the time, and I'm pretty sure I heard the tape only once. Nonetheless, I remember the plot clearly; Catwoman had developed a kind of super-catnip, and she used it to control Bruce Wayne's mind and force him to help her steal jewels. I could go on in detail; the story's extremely muted eroticism was seared into my pre-adolescent brain, even though — or perhaps because — I didn't know exactly what catnip was. From context, I vaguely assumed it involved needles, a misunderstanding that it took me at least another ten years to clear up.
The specific details of my, um, relationship with Catwoman are idiosyncratic, of course, but the fact that I have a relationship isn't. She may not be Mickey Mouse, but it's safe to say that a large number of people have thought about Catwoman in the 60-plus years since she was first invented by Bob Kane. She's a firmly established part of what comic-book writer Alan Moore calls the "fictional planet — the place we have with us ever since we started listening to stories."
Moore adds that "We spend a lot of time in these imaginary worlds, and we get to know them better than the real locations we pass on the street every day." This is why making a movie about Catwoman — or Spider-Man, or King Arthur, for that matter — is such good business; the audience already knows and loves the people in the film. It's almost like watching a friends' home movies. Critics forced to sit through uninspired sequel after uninspired sequel often start moaning about late capitalism, or marketing machinery, or Hollywood's general lack of daring. But the truth is that the public has always liked to hear about the same damn people doing the same damn things over and over and over. Today, we call these pulp stories; they used to be called myths.
The argument that super-heroes are somehow the latest incarnation of a universal, Joseph-Campbell-approved Bildungsroman is frankly preposterous, no matter how often it's wheeled out by desperate comic-book fans. Superman is not Zeus, and the Elongated Man is not the holy lingam. But while the content of pulp and myth may be different, the way they are produced has some similarities. Myths had no single creator; they were group productions; lots of poets and singers and just ordinary folks told each other stories about the gods, adding to them as they went. But nobody owned them — they belonged to everyone. In pulp stories, of course, we generally do know the actual originator; we can point to Edgar Rice Burroughs and say, there's the guy who made up Tarzan. Nonetheless, the creation often looms so much larger than the creator that it eclipses him or her altogether. Today Tarzan is as much a creature of Johnny Weissmuller as of Burroughs, and perhaps even more a product of the people who worked on that animated cartoon, whoever they were. He's a composite creation, cut off from Burroughs in a way that Hamlet, for instance, will never be cut off from Shakespeare.
Super-heroes may be our cultures' most communal possessions for the paradoxical reason that comic-books are so little read. For most people, if a movie or television character originated in a comic-book, he might as well just have sprung full-formed out of nowhere. This gives super-heroes a certain fluidity, which is, again, similar to mythological figures. Just as Argus had anywhere from four to a hundred eyes, so a single super-hero may change radically from story to story, depending on who's doing the telling. In the first Superman comics, for example, our hero could only jump, not fly; in the Christopher Reeve movie, he can make time run backwards by reversing the direction of the earth's rotation, a preposterous idea that I've never seen utilized in a comic-book. Sometimes Superman is married to Lois Lane, sometimes he isn't. And what about the "alternate-universe" story where the infant child rocketed from Krypton is found, not by the Kents, but by an Amish family, and so becomes a pacifist, with tragic consequences for all?
If a major figure like Superman is treated with such freedom, a minor one like Catwoman must count herself lucky if she's even vaguely consistent from appearance to appearance. In fact, as the excellent fan-produced Feline Fatale website amply documents, most aspects of the Catwoman character have been up for grabs over the years. Her origin has varied widely; at first she was an amnesiac stewardess (yes, that's right, a stewardess), then an abused housewife, and now, thanks to writer Frank Miller, she's a hard-boiled ex-S&M hooker who snaps out lines like "You know why I hate men?….Never met one." Her powers, too, have come and gone; sometimes she has a whip, sometimes she has cats trained to do her bidding, sometimes she knows martial arts, and sometimes, of course, she has super-catnip. Even her costume has been reworked; early on she wore a full, furry cat-head replica; later she changed to a more manageable eye-mask and a purple knee-length dress with a green cape. Her most recognizable outfit — the catsuit — didn't become de rigeur until Julie Newmar's shiny, form-fitting debut on TV's Batman series. In Batman Returns, Michelle Pfeiffer moved the franchise more firmly towards fetish gear, with a notoriously uncomfortable latex get-up; Pfeiffer had to use powder to slide it on. More recently, the comic-book Catwoman has been wearing goggles, of all things.
But though one has a lot of leeway when telling a Catwoman story, the character still has to be recognizable. That's the challenge of writing about pulp icons; you have to come up with a way to make the story your own while making sure it remains everyone else's too. A current success is the WB's popular Smallville. The show is about Superman as a teenager, before he got his costume and all his powers. The series works as decent melodrama, and it gains much of the weight it has from the audience's familiarity with the details of the Superman narrative — heat vision, Lex Luthor, Lana Lang, Krypton. In other words, its creators reference a shared body of knowledge, and by doing so, demonstrate their respect for both their material and their audience.
The same cannot be said of the people responsible for the new Catwoman movie. As an experience, the film is familiar enough, but it's the familiarity of cliché, not archetype. One-named director Pitof's visuals are relentlessly, anonymously stylish — one sequence on a basketball court could be mistaken for an exceptionally long and pointless soft-drink commercial, while another where cubicle workers speed up to show the passage of time looks like an ad for telecommunications software. The actors appear to be as non-plussed by the visuals as the audience; Sharon Stone is especially peevish, but everybody looks as if they wished they were someplace else. The plot, such as it is, involves toxic beauty cream and many, many shots of Halle Berry's rear end. Among men, the financial success of the enterprise will clearly rest on the second of these; for straight women, the only possible attraction is the kitty cats. Be warned, however: there are many fewer cute feline reactions shots in the movie than you would have a right to expect from the previews.
Obviously, no one involved in this disaster cares anything at all about Catwoman. Even so, the script ignores the character's legacy in a manner that can only be described as gratuitous For example, in all her previous incarnations, Catwoman's alter-ego was named Selina Kyle. Now some secret identities — Dick Grayson, for example, or Oliver Queen — have aged poorly. But what on earth is wrong with Selina Kyle? Nonetheless, it's gone; in the movie, Catwoman's alter ego is…Patience Phillips. If that sounds a bit too much like Peter Parker, it's no accident; Berry's Catwoman has a lot more in common with Spider-Man than she does with the Batman villain. Just as Parker gains the proportionate strength and speed of a spider, Patience's mystical cat benefactor grants her "fierce independence, total confidence, and inhuman reflexes." With her super-self-esteem, Patience becomes Oprah Winfrey in a Mexican wrestling outfit, telling off all those who need telling off and boldly owning her consumer preferences. As an extra bonus, she gains many of the attributes of cats, such as fear of rain and — in a scene reminiscent of Splash — an unseemly appetite for raw fish. On the subject of litterboxes, however, the film is mercifully silent.
The one aspect of the traditional Catwoman character that the movie *does* seem interested in retaining is her moral ambiguity. In the comics, Catwoman began her costumed career as a burglar, and though she's been reformed at various times and in various incarnations, she's usually been kept at least a little villainous. Patience Phillips does, in fact, have a first-rate motive for turning to crime: she has just lost her job. Luckily, though, she is not the sort of girl who thinks like that or, indeed, who thinks much at all. When Catwoman does rather dutifully steal some jewels, it's only because, you know, cats like bright, shiny things. In any case, Patience's heart doesn't seem to be in it — she almost instantly returns most of them in a bag marked "Sorry."
Berry's Catwoman, then, isn't selfish or greedy or even especially angry. She just has poor impulse control. This neatly inverts the whole raison d'etre of the character. The old Catwoman was sexy because she was dangerous, skillful, and unattainable; Batman was attracted to her at least in part because she was a worthy foe. Berry's version, on the other hand, is supposed to be appealing because she's animalistic — i.e., sexually aggressive, spontaneous, and fun to be around. Most of all, she's available: when a bartender leers at her, she doesn't hand him his head, but instead almost purrs with appreciation. Berry's up there to be eye-candy, and her desperate desire to be ingratiating makes all the tight leather and exposed collar-bones seem more than a bit pitiful. When Catwoman dumps Tom Lone (Benjamin Bratt) because she's just gotta ramble, baby, it's hard not to think that he's well out of it.
At the film's close, Berry's Catwoman mews that she's "bad as I want to be," which is a little misleading In truth, Catwoman is as bad as *Warner Brothers* wants it to be; they're the ones who made the movie and, moreover, the ones who own the rights to the character. That's because even though Catwoman's been around for more than half a century, and even though her creator is dead, she's still under copyright. So are most super-heroes, which is a shame. At one time, tales involving communally created characters were told by whoever remembered and could best repeat them; nowadays they're told by whoever happens to have the ear of a media oligarch. This produces some lame art, and it also keeps a lot of good art off the shelves; the excellent live-action Batman TV-show, featuring Julie Newmar and Eartha Kitt as Catwoman, has still not been released on DVD because of licensing disputes. More importantly, though, granting corporations the rights to ideas that have for all intents and purposes entered the public domain turns people into passive observers of their own culture, and of the insides of their own skulls. I don't know about you, but I don't particularly want Time Warner claiming ownership of any part of my psychic space. It makes me feel a bit like Patience Phillips/Catwoman: torn between two identities, each one stupider than the other.

can the two USB ports on the keyboard also be used with my (2009) Mac book Pro's 2 usb ports at the same time? (for a total of 4 USB ports)
- Asked by Edgar M from Downey
Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
Only three USB ports are available after plugging the keyboard into your MacBook Pro.
I think, the USB ports on the keyboard are low-power (mice, USB thumbs, etc.).
High-power USB ports can run 2.5" USB hard drives & web cams, charge your iPod.
If you need more high-power USB ports, get a powered USB 2 hub.

We Are Going To Give It A Go
Paul Lambert has promised that Villa will give it a good go tonight against Man City, despite us being the underdogs.
Speaking to the Official Site ahead of tonight's Capital One Cup clash, Lambert said he was looking for the team to put in a performance that the fans can be proud of:
'Nobody will expect anything from us, other than ourselves, but you go up there and you go and try and win. I'm not going to change my ideas, regardless of the personnel they have out. We will be up for it and I'll tell them we've got nothing to lose. I'll go as strong as I think I can to win the game, that's important.'
Strong and positive words from Lambert, let's hope the players are in a Swansea frame of mind and not a Southampton.

There's 2 parts to Tax season as an entrepreneur:
Part 1: The awful chore of getting everything ready (unless you have a bookkeeper or accountant)
Part 2: The dread or excitement of the final result.
If you played your cards right and were lucky, you will be getting a refund! Not every business owner will get one, but a good majority might. The question is WHAT do you do with that money?
Unfortunately, many people just blow it since it's "free money" and make plans on how they are going to use it before the return is even completed. Family vacation, things for the kids, money for Christmas, big screen TV etc. I'd never advocate that you shouldn't have some fun, but this is also a great time to put your business first and make an investment into your business that you otherwise may not have or may have needed to wait a bit longer to purchase.
Everyone gets a different amount, but here are some creative ways for entrepreneurs to use their tax return and put money back into their business. This is also making an investment into YOU to bring you more happiness and less stress!
Coaching Program – Most of these programs are $1,000 and up and are a hefty investment, but can yield you a large return.
New Computer – Computer chugging? Now is the time to upgrade!
Office Supplies – Printer jammed? Paper shredder not working? 3 ring whole punch sticks and makes you crazy? These little things will be a great relief.
Software – Want to record webinars or have great sales pages? Make an investment into Lead Pages, Optimize Press, Go to Webinar, Easy Webinar, WishList Member or a host of any other tools that you have always wanted and never purchased.
Take Care of You – As a business owner you can't afford to get sick and not take care of yourself. Treat yourself to some exercise equipment, essential oils, a diffuser, new shoes, a gym membership or anything that allows you to focus on you.
Personal Development – Bunch of business books you have been wanting? Get them! Keep them all in your Amazon WishList as you find them and then you have them to add to the cart when you are ready.
Social Media Graphics/Custom Pins – Always need graphics for social media and don't have time. This is your chance to just buy some. This will give you a chance to breathe and just have them done for you.
These are just some suggestions to get you started, but the choices are endless. How will you be spending yours?

Why Abundance and Ruthlessness Are Needed To Get Hot Girls In 2017 – Troy Francis
One of my early posts, 2 Things To Be A Machiavellian About, touched on this. In short term dating, you absolutely need to have some level of ruthlessness or you will be ignored and walked all over.
Flake or be flaked on. Show up late to dates. Don't give a shit what girls think about you. If you fuck it up who cares? This is what works. Now once a woman has earned your trust and respect, you can transition into being a good man when she has proven she deserves it. But that would be reserved only for long-term dating. In the short-term, all girls must be treated as replaceable options until they prove themselves otherwise.
Why is this necessary? Because it's exactly how they treat you.

Why All Modern Women Crave A Spanking – The Head Of Household
This post changed my life. When talking to new girls, I now actively work to unleash their inner-submissive spanking fetishes. In the last couple months since reading this, I've implemented a new style of game that usually ends up with her bent over my knee, getting a good spanking for her naughty behavior, all while calling me daddy.
I'll typically look for reasons to say something to her such as "Wow that's bad. You're going to be punished for that." The girl will almost always follow up by requesting additional details of said punishment to which I respond "A good hard spanking. I can tell you're in need of that"

Browser: personally I like to use google chrome but its up to you. You can use any web browser.
Editor: its good to start with notepad for a beginner, but you can use notepad++ for your convenience but I don't support any other rich editor like sublime, atom, brackets for a beginner. So please start with notepad or notepad++. you can download notepad++ from here.

The Importance of Teaching Moral Values to Kids
Morality is the herd-instinct in the individual- Friedrich Nietzsche. Morality is like fuel that keeps the wheels of life moving. It gives a correct direction to our lives so that we can enjoy a life of prosperity and happiness. When we were kids, our grandparents were our moral instructors. By telling stories of moral values, they inculcated good values in us. But now, the tradition of joint families have almost abolished from the big cities.
So the responsibilities of parents and teachers have multiplied. Once Swami Vivekananda, the great Indian saint quoted, "We want that education by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, the intellect is expanded, and by which one can stand on one's own feet". The home is the first social community for children. Lack of supportive and sound environment in the family life may impact greatly the psychology of kids. With the rapid growth of post modern culture, the moral values are degrading. It has become a great concern for all of us as a decline in the moral values of the citizen means a decline in the personal image of a country.
Teaching moral values doesn't mean restricting your kid from doing their favorite task. But it's a way of teaching them the rule of nature and life. Values are the desirable principles in someone's character that society considers worthwhile. Friendliness and courage are values. Morals work with the judgment of values as they emerge in actions. Promptness is a value; therefore, it is morally wrong to be late to work. It is not that kids become aware of these values by their own; they need adult guidance on every walk of their lives. The early caregivers of the child should develop a sense of belongingness with the child so that the human traits can be shown in the child in a later life.
A bond of trust with the elders of the family helps the child to develop these traits. The quality of relationship the children have with their parents greatly affects the way children develop morally. During dialogues generated by parents' use of induction, parents also can help stimulate children's moral development by the use of questioning within an emotional supportive context. For example, parents can ask children why they think that their behavior led another child to cry, helping children come to the answer themselves. How parents can do this depends on the child's level of development; parents need to be cognizant of what children can understand and adjust their language accordingly.
The teachers in school can also imbibe moral values among kids. A nation having citizens who are healthy, patriot, honest and sincere, that nation can ensure a secure future to all its citizens. The inclusion of moral education in the schools has become more important these days. There are different ways by which school can morally upgrade the kids, like telling stories, preaching, group discussions, Yoga, and Meditation. To be an effective teaching, a combination of all methods can be used. Children are by nature pure, sincere, and eager to learn. If the schools and colleges impart the moral character building values effectively, the purity of the students can be maintained and enhanced.

Having been raised by an amazing Persian woman, rose water pretty much runs through my veins. Growing up, my mom would make a refreshing rose water and chia seed drink every summer. We had no idea they were called chia seeds, and you couldn't even find them in the states! Naturally the first few times I made chia seed pudding I felt like something was missing. Then, I figured it out….Rose Water!!!
I should mention that there is also rose water in a Persian dessert that is very much like rice pudding. I usually top it with cinnamon or berries. I hope you enjoy this version of chia pudding as much as I do.
1 cup Milk (dairy or Almond)
4Tbs Rose Water
2Tbs Raw Cane Sugar
4Tbs Chia Seeds
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl, preferably one that has a lid. Make sure to mix well so the chia seeds don't stick together. Put in the fridge and let sit for 3 to 4 hours. Enjoy!

As Northern Ireland prepare to depart for their first-ever European Championship finals, they are bidding to give the Windsor Park faithful a win before they head for France.
They will take on a depleted Belarus side led by Aleksandr Khatskevich, who has some of his star players out injured.
Either way, the eastern European outfit's tough defensive style will provide a stern test for Michael O'Neill's side.
Fanfare farewell for O'Neill's heroes
When Northern Ireland kick-off on Friday night, it will be just two weeks until the tournament starts in France. It's been a whirlwind turnaround for the side, who had previously dropped four points to both Azerbaijan and Luxembourg in the previous World Cup qualifying. Things looked bleak at that point.
Fast forward to this point in time, and fans aren't booking flights home from the Euros; the Green and White Army are going in numbers and, for once, are confident about what may lie ahead. Germany, Poland and Ukraine await the Northern Ireland squad, who are currently 10 games unbeaten.
Their defeat to Romania in Bucharest was the only low in an otherwise incredible qualifying campaign, where the roof was regularly blown off Windsor Park - if not by the fans, then by the ground collapsing - this has been a 'seeing is believing' period for the loyal Norn Iron faithful.
Belarus beginning to pick up form
Despite picking up just 11 points from their 10 qualifying games, Belarus ended the campaign strongly and arrived that into the recent run of friendly matches. They are currently unbeaten in their last five outings, which includes an impressive away triumph against Slovakia in their penultimate qualifier.
That has also been matched by their staunch defensive effort, as the Belarus defence has not been breached in any of the aforementioned quintet of fixtures. Those last three results have come as nil-nil draws, as goalscoring appears to be a serious problem for Khatskevich's men; they'll be hoping to change that on Friday.
Team news
Everything is looking good from a Northern Irish point of view, with Chris Brunt's long-term injury the only major absentee that Michael O'Neill has to worry about.
Belarus, on the other hand, have already cut their squad from 23 to 18 ahead of their trip to face the two Irish nations. The likes of Sergei Kornilenko, Stanislav Dragun and Sergei Balanovich have all dropped out and has left them thin for both games. It will, however, hand the less experienced players a chance to impres.
Predicted line-ups
Northern Ireland: (4-1-4-1) McGovern; McLaughlin, Cathcart, McAuley, Evans; McNair; Ward, Davis, Norwood, Dallas; K. Lafferty.
Belarus: (4-4-2) Klimovich; Shitov, Martynovich, Filipenko, Polyakov; Krivets, Hleb, Stasevich, Kislyak; Janusz, Gordeychuk.

The 10 Best Cocktail Bars in Milan
It is not difficult to have nice drinks in Milan, you just need to know where to go to. Between annoying teenagers and watered down cocktails, it is easy to goof up on quality.
In years and years of nights out I have collected a list of beloved bars where you can have refined drinks without going home with a headache.
When I am in for a proper Bloody Mary I leave everything and go to via Orti, behind the yellow line metro stop Crocetta. Regularly a Bloody Mary turns into some Blody Mary's. And it's not that I have an alcohol problem, but they prepare it in an incredible way here, and in at least ten different variations. There is the Maria L'Acerba – fyi, my favourite – which is the one with green tabasco and chili pepper vodka. There is the Q.B., a variation with tequila, basil and cinnamon liquor. And then, there is the Yellow Sub-Maria, yellow pepper infused tequila with a sprinkle of turmeric. Get comfortable on the sofas in the Futurism inspired room and, if the aperitivo starts your appetite, go directly to the room with the fish restaurant, where the dishes are on the level of the cocktails served at the bar.
LACERBA. Via Orti 4, Milano. +39 02 545 5475 Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open Mon-Sat (18:00/2:00) Closed on Sunday.
Beside the excellent kitchen, the reason for stopping at Rebelot, younger brother of the starred Pont de Ferr, are their cocktails. It is a privilege that is hard to resist to sit in springtime at one of the tables facing the Naviglio and enjoy a cocktail created by Oscar Quagliarini, one of the best barmen in Europe. The quality of the drinks and the mixing expertise are two of the characteristics that are undeniable from the first sip. I couldn't miss the Mary per Sempre (did you get that I love Bloody Mary?) a variation of the drink with Mare gin, tomato juice, caper liquor and fresh rosemary. Scrolling the menu, all the drinks are very inviting. The Speakeasy (Whisky Ardberg 10, sugar, Galliano, angostura and chocolate bitter and a sprinkle of absinth) and the Vie en Rose (gin, grapefruit juice, tonic water, angostura and Saint Germain) are only two of the drinks they offer.
REBELOT DEL PONT. Ripa di Porta Ticinese 55, Milano. +39 02 84194720. Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open everyday (18:00/2:00) Closed on Tuesday.
Outside the Naviglia area, inside a beautiful courtyard: elements for loving Turbigo, but it is when you order something to drink or eat that you understand how strong that love is. I have tried great detox cocktails (pear, fennel and dill and green apple, lime and mint) while sitting on one of the sofas in the yard. I went back again trying something stronger, but nothing has changed: beautiful presentation, special flavour.
TURBIGO. Alzaia Naviglio Grande 8, Milano. +39 02 8940 0407. Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open Tue-Fri 18:00/24:00; Sat-Sun 12:00/24:00
I entered the doors of the Taco Bar in via Casale, new adventure – this time a latin one – of the founders of the format of Al Mercato (ever tried the Burger Bar and the Noodle Bar?), thinking that I could binge on burritos after a difficult day. I went out, yes after eating burritos, but also after a few pretty good cocktails. One of them, the most incredible one, was a mohito with an upside down beer inside. The second one, also incredibly good, was a Bloody Santana (Bloody Mary dressed with tequila and beer). Do I need to mention that I go back at least once per month?
AL MERCATO TACO BAR. Via Casale 5, Milano. +39 02 36767328. Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open Mon-Fri 19:00/02:00; Sat 12:30/15:00 and 19:00/02:00; Sun 12:30/15:00 and 19:00/00:00.
Although it is a cross street from Naviglio Grande, so slightly apart from the bars of the area, the Rita is a hotspot in the area and it sometimes happen to queue up for a cocktail. It is thanks to the guys who prepare the drinks with great passion. Usually I order a "Cazzi Tuoi" just for the fun of saying it (Ed. Swear words in Italian). The list is long, and every cocktail is duly described. And delicious.
RITA&COCKTAILS. Via Angelo Fumagalli 1, Milano. +39 02 8372865. Average price of a cocktail: 9€. Open Mon-Sat (18:30/02:00) Closed on Sunday.
The first time I went there I ordered a Moscow Mule. And then another. And another. And that's how Pravda entered my heart although I am in the opposite side of the city and althought there is big generational gap between me and the clientele (yes, it was full of teenagers). Many consider the Pravda the best cocktail bar in Milan and I don't think they are wrong. If you want to feel a bit younger it's enough that you have a chat outside there, mix up with the kids and drink a vodka cocktail after another.
PRAVDA VODKA BAR. Address: Via Vittadini 6, Milano Phone: +39 334 3387602. Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open every evening (18:30/01:00).
The managment in the kitchen is by Carlo Cracco. At the bar the ball passes to Filippo Sisti, the bar tender that tickled the taste buds of many New Yorkers, Parisians and Londoners. In Milan, in the quite new place of the aristochef in via Meda, Sisti is serving his original cocktails, prepared with instruments that are usually in the kitchen (oven, pan, vacuum-packed, blast chiller and so on) and with a large use of spices. The result is astonishing at any time of the day, from aperitivo to the after-dinner. I wouldn't mind a little bit less ice cubes and a larger glass, but you know that even at Cracco's you don't finish full and sated.
CARLO E CAMILLA IN SEGHERIA. Via Meda 24, Milano. +39 02 8373963. Average price of a cocktail: 9€. Open Mon-Sat (18:00/02:00) Closed on Sunday.
Cocktail and pizza: what else? That's what they might have thought at Dry, (almost) twin brother of Pisacco, in via Solferino. The barman is Guglielmo Miriello, young and already "trained" to deliver good drinks to his fellow citizens. His specialties are vintage drinks, but on the menu you find a little bit of everything. If you come in group, there is the cocktail in the bottle, for four or eight people. My favourite? The 'Between the Sheets', timeless drink with rum, cognac, cointreau and lemon juice.
DRY. Via Solferino 33, Milano. +39 02 63793414. Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open every evening (19:00/1:30).
At Taglio eveything is remarkable (starting from Eggs Benedict, I believe I will write about it very soon), a special focus has to be put on cocktails. They make some very good ones in this nice place in via Vigevano, between Porta Genova and Navigli: I tried a few – of course! – but the ones that stayed on my mind were one mix of gin, lime, tabasco and elderberries and a fantastically made spritz. The atmosphere is very cozy and it feel like we are miles away from the chaos of the Navigli. A reason to enjoy a moment of calm with a great drink in your hands.
TAGLIO. Via Vigevano 10, Milano. +39 02 3653 4294. Average price of a cocktail: 10€. Open everyday (8:00/23:45).
A Portuguese saying goes "Se a vida lhe der um limão, faça dele uma caipirinha" – that is "If life gives you lemons, make a caipirinha". Not wrong. The way they make the caipirinha at Temakinho is top notch. Prepared with fresh fruit, cachaca Leblon, sugar and lime is fantastic: especially the one with mango, with small balls of pink salt that I went crazy for. The caipirinha goes with a temaki on the side, of course.
TEMAKINHO Ripa di Porta Ticinese, 37 \ \Corso Garibaldi 59, Milano. Average price of a cocktail: 8€. Open everyday (12:00/15:00 and 19:00/00:00).
And what about you? Where do you go when you need a cocktail with all the trimmings? Nasdrovie!

Duluth tees up for 2014 Greater Gwinnett Championship
April 1, 2014 by Max
With just weeks to go until the 2014 Greater Gwinnett Championship, Duluth print companies have no doubt rushed to get the tickets and player credentials printed up. Played just a week after the U.S. Masters at Augusta National, local folks are sure to pack the viewing galleries for the golf spectacle.
It is the second running of the championship at TPC Sugarloaf, following last year's inaugural event. The 2013 Championship saw Bernard Langer take the title, as he shot a final round 67 to win by three shots.
Some of the biggest names ever to play the game of golf have committed to play in the event this year. As well as last year's champion, the 81-strong field will include the likes of Mark Calcavecchia, Miguel Angel Jimenez, Tom Kite, Sandy Lyle, Mark McNulty, Corey Pavin, and Curtis Strange.
With a $1.8m purse, the field will be competing for the title over three rounds of the Greg Norman-designed course. Played in a stroke play arrangement, the 54 holes will be played by all 81 players with no cut going into the weekend.
As well as the full championship, the course will also play host to the Matt Ryan Celebrity-AM Classic and the Executive Women's Day. That takes place on Monday April 14, with free entry to spectators.
The championship itself will get underway on Thursday, April 17, and run through Sunday, April 20.

My thoughts over at the Arena. I am certainly interested in seeing what else the President has to say concerning this general subject. But someone needs to tell him that pretty words alone won't cut it when it comes to breaking new ground, and forging a new culture of civility. Much as I may wish the contrary, taking the debate over abortion to a new, and better level is going to require more than mere eloquence.
And yes, I think that colleges and universities should seek out speakers who can talk directly to the students, with a greater appreciation for the life experiences of those students. Maybe it's high time to acknowledge that celebrity is overrated.

Making Money Online, Again!!
How To Make Money Online Again
How to Make Money Online Again
How To Make Money Online Again?
We get frustrated that making money online just does not happen overnight, Is it hype? Solid business online is one of the hardest business's to make cold hard cash. Advertising your business then marketing your business online. This will hopefully bring in customers. Then you advertise more and grow a few more people from your website traffic if done correctly.
Online traffic, is this key in building a profitable business on the net, I believe there are very few of us that will make it. The online advertising sign is up and running, yet our customers are slowly making their way into our business, very slowly, This , of course if your one in a million that makes a onetime article that just hits the public just right. You must make a solid impact for a longtime, or even the aging of time must be pro-active. The majority are struggling to make it work with keywords and ads to find different niches or ideas. The stream of new traffic, in to our doors can take time. Blog traffic is not free either, you have to spend time online and push traffic to your blog and your time is money.
Whether its time or money there is no free traffic that we are getting, the countless hours' blogging and selling, using our skills to drive the herd our direction. There are scams that have taken my time or money and proven to be a waste, there is no such thing as fast cash. To be efficient you have to spend some time, and that means no money time. Hopefully you are prepared for the long haul and to do this selling part –time, I don't see it. If so then great I am a bit slower than some and don't catch on to traffic catching very fast..
I have written articles for company's and make a few bucks per week, and then I write for hub pages and make at least one or two articles a day, some quality, some not quality material. I get in too big of a rush for some reason; I have to remember that lines of traffic are coming, just not in my time. There is a company called textbroker.com, this is a great way to make a spare income, and the pay is "fair", compared to Elance.com in that they are high end SEO type of company that wants to pay cheap on most projects that I qualify for. This is not to put down Elance.com, they have very high end writers and I am not,Maybe , it's a waste of my money at this point in my life, later on maybe an asset.
Not much in the way of making money on the internet, as I see it, and have experienced it with the hubs and the 40 blogs, I have yet to see any real money, though I am seeing some activity from writers and people that may want to offer me to write on my blogger account,. I would have to say the internet is what you type it to be, if your experienced at writing as I am not, and a fast type, have a way with words, there is a place for you here. I will play alongside of the top dogs, and learn as much as I can where the money is on this article writing. You just keep doing it and someday as your numbers grow, your income will as well, My income is growing, so I would have to say yes you can make a living on the internet writing articles, is it easy, by far . It takes commitment, and for a man commitment is hard, just laughing, yet the commitment to stick with the writing is king. This is how to make money online, or one way of thought , be good at article writing or SEO work then you should get better.
I like this !

Kelley Walsh-Lyons, Owner
Kelley moved to Vermont from Colorado in 1993 and started practicing yoga in 1997. It felt amazing and was a great way to balance out the demands of working in the kitchen after training at the Cordon Bleu in France. Her yoga teacher left Vermont in 1999 and someone had to bring hot yoga to the cold northern climate of Vermont! She completed the teacher training in Los Angeles in 2000 and open the studio on Pine St in the winter of 2001. Kelley loves yoga! She has been fortunate enough to take classes, seminars and trainings with great teachers here on Pine St, as well as across the States, and recently in Mexico too. She loves living in the woods of New England with her husband (who doesn't do yoga), Chico the cat and her corgi, Ruby. Yes, her dreams include lots of yoga and corgis.
Betsy Baker, Yoga Instructor
Betsy started practicing Bikram yoga on New Year's Day 2002 and went to teacher training in the summer of 2004. At times, yoga has been her main athletic activity, other times it's been auxiliary – keeping her healthy for hiking, running, CrossFit, and more. When teaching, she is aware that people bring their complex lives into the studio, therefore she embraces the essence of Plato's quote: "be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle." Betsy believes in working hard at the yoga, and being encouraging and compassionate with her students. Come stretch and sweat with her!
Mindy Elmergreen, Yoga Instructor
"Bikram Yoga – Intense workout. Expect to sweat." Mindy will never forget this tiny ad that she found in the classifieds of the Seven Days in 2001. It was the summer before her senior year at the University of Vermont that she became hooked on Bikram Yoga. Fifteen years of playing competitive sports, countless sprained ankles, pulled muscles and two knee surgeries left Mindy yearning to find a new routine to stay fit. Beyond strength and flexibility, Bikram Yoga has given her so much more than she could have ever imagined. A sense of well-being, contentment, confidence, breath control and patience are just a few of the non-physical benefits that she quickly encountered. She attended teacher training in the fall of 2002 in Los Angeles. She is beyond elated to continue to share this incredibly healing, detoxifying and empowering practice with her community. Mindy's days are spent with her two young sons and her wonderful husband. When she's not sweating it out at the studio, Mindy can be found hiking, biking, snowboarding, gardening, fermenting, sprouting, dehydrating and cooking.
Robert Luce, Yoga Instructor
Robert started practicing Bikram Yoga in his late forties, in 2001, the year the Burlington studio opened. He came to manage the stress of his job as a trial lawyer at Downs Rachlin Martin and to deal with chronic pain associated with old ski injuries. He found what he was looking for and much more, including an extraordinary community of people and the richness of of yoga beyond the physical practice. (He also found his wife Aida, another yogi.) His yoga practice and the Burlington Bikram Yoga community have sustained him through many challenges over the last several years. In 2012 Robert was able to take a 9 week leave from his law practice to attend teacher training. He hopes as he enters his sixties that he will be able to promote the miraculous benefits of yoga, both as a practitioner and as a teacher.
Julie Peoples-Clark, Yoga Instructor
Julie Peoples-Clark has been a go-go dancer in a cage in a night club, a showgirl in Atlantic City, a backup dancer for Richard Marx, a magician's assistant, a teeny bopper in a John Waters's movie, a tap dancing book on television, a professional modern dancer, a yogi and mother to Ella the Great. She began practicing Bikram yoga in 1998 to rehab her body from years as a professional dancer. The yoga practice has been a constant in her life during the many challenges that have been sent her way.
Tracy Rubman, Yoga Instructor
Tracy started doing yoga in 2000 after her Lupus doctor suggested hot yoga may allow her to reduce her medication load. Voila … No lupus medication and virtually symptom free for 10+ years. She became a very regular student and decided to solidify her commitment by becoming a yoga teacher in 2005. Teaching yoga and watching students change their lives is a gift. Yoga keeps her healthy so I can also enjoy spending time with family and friends, skiing and flying small airplanes. When she is not teaching or practicing yoga, Tracy works as an intensive special educator and is a mother of one girl and three boys 20,14 and 11.She is overjoyed to say her children have started doing yoga with her.
Francesca Parnham, Yoga Instructor
Francesca attended her first Bikram Yoga class in 2011. Admittedly, she has never been a person who's enjoyed being in the heat. Now, all of the irritation and frustration has gone away and summer is her favorite time to practice! As a student of the yoga, Francesca dedicates tremendous energy and time focusing on learning and developing her personal practice. She constantly challenges herself to continuing her education and knowledge of the practice and it's tremendous benefits. Yoga has given her the ability to stay present in life's most challenging moments and helps her lead a balanced life. Francesca is an outdoor enthusiast, avid skier and mountain biker, and self-proclaimed foodie. Francesca teaches with care and compassion and is overwhelmingly inspired by her students' motivation and dedication to their own personal practice. Visit Francesca at Bikram Yoga Happy Valley & West Linn Studios in Portland, OR. Keep it hot!
Marnie Owens, Yoga Instructor
Marnie dabbled in yoga throughout the early 2000's, but she knew she'd found something special in 2007 when she wandered into the hot room on Pine Street, then known as Bikram Yoga Burlington. She quickly became a regular, interspersing her yoga practice with running and soccer. Aside from practicing yoga, Marnie began to devour articles, books and web resources on the physiological and psychological benefits that yoga provides. Marnie credits her yoga practice with helping her manage a chronic illness and keeping her (mostly!) mentally healthy. In 2015, Marnie attended teacher training with master teacher Tony Sanchez in Mexico, delving further into her own practice, anatomy, and yoga history and philosophy. When she isn't at Tapna, Marnie can often be found in Votey Hall at the University of Vermont, where she serves as an Assistant Dean in the College of Engineering & Mathematical Sciences. She lives in Winooski with her husband, her cats Rugby and Omen, and her blind pit bull mix Crash.
Lindsey Cox, Yoga Instructor
Lindsey Cox first discovered Bikram yoga in Burlington in 2004. Initially a way to stay warm during long Vermont winters, her practice has opened up the door to so many important "off the mat" skills like patience, humility, and child-like play. With a day job in education, her passion has always been to help others discover those "ah-ha moments." Whether in a classroom or on the mat, Lindsey believes that we never stop being students. This led her to Florida to complete Shiva Rea's Prana Flow 200 hour Teacher Training with Micheline Berry in 2010. She began teaching all different forms of yoga, including Bikram, at Yogani Studios in Tampa. Lindsey returned to Vermont in 2012 and, after the birth of her son Dylan, started teaching at Tapna exactly 10 years to the month from when she took her very first class. Off the mat you will find her skiing, biking, and brewing kombucha.

Coming up the River Bure towards Wroxham is a fine journey, however, demasting your sailboat is going to be a potential issue if you can not do it on the go like some can and some can't. Me included.
Wroxham Island is a 15 minute trip away from the low Wroxham Bridge and this is the last place you can actually stop and moor up to demasting going in
Coming out you have Hoveton viaduct and also Bridge Broad only if it is suitable to demast your vessel away from a mooring.
Wroxham Demasting Zone?

Cattle rise most in six months
By Bloomberg News
CHICAGO -- Cattle futures rose the most in six months on concern that U.S. beef supplies will shrink as Tyson Foods Inc. halts purchases of animals fed with a supplement made by Merck & Co. after discovering lame livestock at factories.
"Some animal-health experts have suggested that the use of the feed supplement Zilmax, also known as zilpaterol, is one possible cause" for the animals being unable to walk, according to a letter sent by Springdale, Ark.-based Tyson to cattle suppliers. The "interim measure" is effective Sept. 6, and the "evaluation of these problems is ongoing," according to the letter provided Wednesday by Tyson spokesman Gary Mickelson. Merck said the supplement is safe.
Futures climbed to a five-month high. Zilmax helps animals gain 24 pounds (11 kilograms) to 33 pounds more than normal and is used to increase lean muscle, according to Steve Kay, the editor of Cattle Buyers Weekly, a trade magazine based in Petaluma, Calif. The supplement is typically given for about 20 days in the month before livestock are sent to slaughter, he said.
"This is not a food-safety issue," according to the letter by Tyson, the biggest U.S. meat processor. "It is about animal well-being and ensuring the proper treatment of the livestock we depend on to operate."
Pamela Eisele, a spokeswoman at Whitehouse Station, N.J.-based Merck, said in an email that "extensive" data and research showed that the "behavior and movement of cattle fed Zilmax is normal." The company "has offered technical assistance, both internal and external experts, to help Tyson to understand what is behind the instances at its facility," according to the email.
Cattle futures for October delivery rose 1.9 percent to settle at $1.27075 a pound at 1 p.m. on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the biggest gain for a most-active contract since Jan. 28. Earlier, the price climbed by the CME limit of 3 cents to $1.27675, the highest since March 13.
Trading was 89 percent more than the 100-day average for this time, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Cattle futures have dropped 3.9 percent this year.
The price pared gains after Cargill Inc., the second-largest U.S. beef packer, said it will keep buying animals fed with additives.
"We buy cattle that have been fed supplements, and we're not we're not planning to change what we do," Michael Martin, a spokesman for Cargill Inc.'s U.S. animal-protein business, said Thursday in a telephone interview. The closely held company, the biggest in the United States, is based in Minneapolis.
Feeder-cattle futures for September settlement rose 0.9 percent to $1.57825 a pound after jumping the exchange limit of 3 cents to $1.59375, the highest since June 2012. Trading was 75 percent more than the 100-day average, according to Bloomberg data. The price has gained 12 percent in the past year.
Because the suspension is not effective until next month, it "gives cattle feeders plenty of time to stop using Zilmax," Kay of Cattle Buyers Weekly said in a telephone interview. About 60 percent to 80 percent of cattle are given Zilmax or the alternative additive Optaflexx, manufactured by Eli Lilly & Co.'s Elanco unit, he said.
Optaflexx is a brand of ractopamine. China and Russia have sought to restrict meat imports with that additive.
"Zilmax has been used globally for nearly two decades in countries including South Africa, Mexico, Canada, the U.S. and Canada, and South Korea," Merck says on its website. "The safety of Zilmax is well documented by numerous independent, third-party experts."
Wholesale beef reached $2.1137 a pound on May 23, the highest since at least 2004, U.S. Department of Agriculture data show. Since then, the price has dropped 11 percent to $1.8832.
"Either the size of the animals will shrink, or a lot more corn will be consumed" as feed, Jerry Gidel, the chief feed-grain analyst for Rice Dairy in Chicago, said in a telephone interview. Zilmax is "a widely used additive in the U.S. and also by the exporters in Canada," he said.
Corn futures for December delivery rose 0.3 percent to $4.5975 a bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade, ending a five-session slump. The price has tumbled 44 percent in the past 12 months on forecasts that U.S. farmers will harvest a record crop this year.
"You're going to see beef packers follow suit" on scaling back supplements, Troy Vetterkind, the owner of Vetterkind Cattle Brokerage in Chicago, said in a telephone interview. "It's getting harder to sell meat with additives in it as countries like Russia and China are refusing to buy it."
Cattle futures probably won't top this year's high "because you shut demand off, and pork and poultry production is on the rise," he said.
On Jan. 11, the most-active contract by open interest reached a record $1.35175.
The retail price of ground beef averaged $3.382 a pound in June, the most ever behind the record of $3.407 in January, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data show.
"Cattlemen and women believe in the right of farmers and ranchers to responsibly use FDA-approved technologies," Forrest Roberts, the chief executive officer of the National Cattlemen's Association in Washington, said in a statement. "However, we take every report of animal welfare issues very seriously. We believe these products can be used responsibly when managed properly."

Seed Funding
North Star Fund invests in groups when no other funders will take a risk. Some of New York City's most powerful community-based organizations got their first grant from North Star Fund.
A group of homeless New Yorkers wanted to fight back against police harassment, stigmatization, and the lack of affordable places to live. Other funders said, "You can't organize this community." North Star Fund took a risk. Today, Picture the Homeless reaches 2,000 people each year and is leading the movement for just policing and permanent affordable housing.
A group of Latino immigrant workers in the food factories of Brooklyn and Queens that supply New York City's grocery stores and restaurants were tired of being subjected to verbal abuse from their bosses, being denied wages, breaks, and overtime. They had never written a proposal before. North Star Fund took a risk with a $5,000 grant. That grant led other funders to lend support as well. Today, Brandworkers has won over $2 million in stolen wages, won settlements with major New York City food factories, and is a founding member of the Food Chain Workers Alliance, protecting workers in all corners of the food industry.
As the West Village started to gentrify in the early 1990s, LGBTQ youth—who had found safe space on the Christopher Street pier away from their conservative families or neighborhoods—started to be pushed out. A group of them came together to keep the West Village a safe haven for queer communities. North Star Fund took a risk on them. Since then, FIERCE! has trained hundreds of young people to speak up, fought police harassment, and ensured that the pier remains a place where young people can be who they really are.
line"You as a New Yorker could never know every group out there doing important, pushy, aggressive work to make the city a better place, a fairer place, a more just place, and if you are a supporter of North Star Fund, you know that's where your money is going."

In 2012, the Somali National Constituent Assembly and other key stakeholders have agreed, under intense pressure from the international community, to allocate 30 percent quota of Federal Parliament seats for women.
Unfortunately, all men of the traditional elders selected Members of Parliament, women received only 14 percent in a 275-member legislature. Disenfranchisement is even more pronounced in Federal Member States, including Puntland and Somaliland, where (3%) women have been selected in the 66-member regional legislature in Puntland and only one woman among 164 members of Somaliland Parliament (less than 1%). Women are not faring any better at the Cabinet level as there are five women (three ministers and two deputy ministers in the 66-member cabinet (8%). Similarly, there are 4 women ( one minister, two deputy ministers, and one DG ) in cabinet of ministers in Puntland,
Under the theme 'Planet 50-50 by 2030: Step It Up for Gender Equality', the day is aimed at encouraging governments to step up efforts in empowering women and eradicating cultural practices, laws and regulations that hinder the realization of their full potential in society the government should come up with a fair formula that spells out women's equitable representation of the 2016 electoral selections in line with the general principle of the provisional constitution of Somalia and article 22 of the Istanbul Communiqué of February 2016
My candidacy of Somalia's lower house MP in 2016
I have launched my candidacy on 5 May 2016 and Somalia in an exciting critical stage of political interchange which means good opportunity for women to participate the move and they must be spotted and seized, In my candidacy I have few things that pushed me including.
1. In the recent 25 years Somalia's women has been portrayed, beaten, killed and raped and that was anarchy the country has been suffering therefore I want to be the changing machine of that difficulties
2. Ending patriarchy era and campaigning for democracy, the last 25 years and before Somalia has been and still is more patriarchal state which means men are the dominant group in every sector of the government, democracy drivers are not in a place where women cannot play a similar ground with men.
3. Ending gender segregations , not only in Somalia where segregation is still remnant but parts of the third countries are still intact with it, my two month campaign I have departed for empowering young girl education have increased my appetite to present more larger option to make into action of what I have started to end.
From the past 25 years Somali women has been through my difficulties including home segregation, school segregation, rape cases has been too much, pre-mortem death and FGM, except those natural cases others have partially rooted the Somali culture and it's because Somali traditional culture has been and still is the justice bench of those difficulties which means the state is yet moving a low speed for the formation of the gender equality.
As Somali politician women, advocate of women's political participation and young girl education empowerment activist I have made new beginning to be a candidate of Somalia's lower house MP for seeking our 30% quota, my candidacy will evoke the ambition of many other Somali women who have been in close door stage for their ambition to speed up.
And even 30% percent quota is not enough for our call of power sharing and gender equality but because of this critical stage we have sacrificed our partial share for men in order for the process, we recognized Somali traditional elders will find themselves difficulty of implementing a such long-called recent issue but for the close observance of the international community we made our confidence more stable.
My massage to all the concerned parties.
The election model took into consideration the bicameral system of parliament as envisaged in the Provisional Constitution 2012. The Lower house will consist of 275 MPs chosen along the traditional 4.5 model and the Regional States will appoint all the 54 members of the Upper House. 48 Members of the Upper House will be equally distributed among Somalia's existing and emerging Federal Member States. The remaining 6 members will be distributed equally between Somaliland and Puntland in recognition of their political status and maturity according to the Somali Federal Government.
A continuing goal from the 2012 elections is the need to include women in the election process and to fulfill the 30% quota for their representation both in the Lower and Upper House. This quota was missed by a large margin in 2012 and will need a real push from all stakeholders and participants to bring to reality.
Therefore my message is clear; we have to learn from 2012 when such issue has been neglected deliberately by both traditional elders and international community on their watch, there is a need to realistically implement the 30% quota and the international community should conduct a very close follow up for the program, likewise in 2012 special committee should be allotted to follow the program.
This 30% quota should be made a legitimate article of the 2016 core election principles and I'm sure this will make successful of Somalia's women political participation dream, if such role is neglected again the 50-50 principle by 2030 will not work and it will add another failure, as an advocate of Somali women political participation my whistle blow will be not be local but a further broader campaign. I believe that the only viable option for equitable participation of Somali women in public life is to agree and set up a quota system prescribed in a legislation tabled and passed before parliament before July 2016 to coincide with the August 2016 election. Such legislation should contain a provision for nominating women members of parliament if the number of women selected/elected falls short of the targeted number, therefore I'm calling the Somali federal government and international community to set up new legislations in order to make sure that such policies are manipulated correctly
My recommendations for re-correction
Currently we see the immature political free kicks being made but that's not our intent notion to focus, the fact that Somalis today are discussing and preparing for elections which are more inclusive than in the past and that is a welcome progress. Democracy based on justice, fair representation and nationwide consensus will ensure Somalia leaves behind its dark past and accelerates further towards the path of stability, peace and progress. However, all these depend on the implementation of the proposed electoral model that includes the implementation of women's 30% quota.
And for the successful implementation of the issue the following are vital.
- Women's political representation and strategies regarding the 2016 election/selection should be called as consultations and forums should be held for persuasion of the program
- Engendering the constitutional review process that will focus on women's political participation
- Critical legislative and policy interventions to advance women's human rights.
- The Federal Government should come up with a fair formula that spells out women's equitable representation in the 2016 elections/selections in line with the Garowe Principles, the Provisional Constitution of Somalia and Article 22 of the Istanbul Communiqué of February 2016
- The Federal Government should convene a stakeholders meeting that will bring together women leaders, parliamentarians, the government and CSOs for consultation on power sharing and representation by Somali women not later than july 2016.
· Now we learned that Garowe 1 and Garowe 2 were more political that women couldn't utilize it therefore the recent 2016 should be more into action and politically free, we would like to remind the international community that our mind recalls the way we were outsmarted politically in 2012 and we will not allow this for a recurrent option
- We recommend the Federal Government and the international community, most particularly UNSOS, UNWOMEN and UNDP gender unit to consult with women on possible electoral models currently under revision and any accompanying implementation work-plans so that we can make informed contributions and possibly audit them on gender equity and make their quota implemented
- We urge the federal member states like Puntland to consult with women for the process and allocate their quota fairly possible, Puntland has been promoting women's political participation and we are confident women's quota will not be politicized
- I recognized the traditional elders has always been the main protocols of such elections and we recommend them to recognize the women's role is very constructive mind, we as a women have always and still recognized the elders role, we respect them and we want them to be likewise to recognize our power and influence as a women.
- The Somali government and international community should set up new committee that are politically free who closely watch our quota is not fallen short on the targeted number

Ich folge Archillect ("The ocular engine") schon eine ganze Weile auf Twitter und ging eigentlich davon aus, dass dahinter irgendein Mensch steckt mit 'nem ziemlich guten Auge für Architektur und Grafik-Design. Heute hab' ich gelernt: Das ist ein ziemlich elaborierter Bot, programmiert von Murat Pak, der im Laufe der Zeit Geschmack entwickelt, der sich wiederum an der Social-Media-Rezeption seiner Postings orientiert. Ein assoziativer Visual-Bot mit Popularity-Feedback. Bin gespannt, wann Archillect bei Katzenbildern landet.
Archillect has an algorithm that is fed a list of keywords. Instead of posting the search results directly, she wiki-walks between pages and posts, collecting data on various items: image, poster, recent interactions and the visible audience of the post. She maps the social structure of these items by mining as much data as possible from each one of them. This abstract structure helps Archillect find positive results but more importantly, allows her to discover related keywords and eventually learn.
The balance and threshold of keywords and picks are dynamically adjusted as Archillect's posts on social media gain attention. This not only makes the decision making process nearly human but also gives her a primitive trend perception.
Archillect's curation process works like a simple neural network. She aims to make her posts reach as far as possible considering the potential followers that may share the content with their own followers. As a result she likes attention from accounts with high potential of making her posts survive in the social web and she increases her trust in the accounts that helps her make the correct choices that made earlier posts reach further.
She tries to understand what is "liked" on social media.
As a result she learns, evolves, communicates and becomes happy in her own ways.
