Note: This piece was originally published in the CERN Student Club's "Creative Voices" in 2009. The website is now under major revamp, so I am republishing it here.
One year ago before I came to CERN I had no idea what the Higgs boson was, I thought a wormhole is where birds are sent to when they die and Quark is a kind of food I like. I thought life is the biggest concoction of coincidental and wicked confusion, until one day someone tried to explain the string theory to me.
I had no expectations, no worthy predictions of what this place had in store for me and I was living in an apartment with a kitten that chases her tail and thinks she is a dog. I had never lived with an animal under the same roof before, at least not with one that snarls at me when I accidentally step on her imaginary turf.
Unfamiliarity can be a bitch, and in my case this bitch comes in the form of a hypothetical particle and a purring creature. They're both unpredictable, volatile and I can't decipher them with my engineer-geared mind where "hypothetical" is a shunned word and used only when you have no idea what you are talking about, and a string is really just that – a string. I felt like someone just threw me into a whirlpool akin to the infinite improbability drive and asked me to engineer my way out of this whimsical maze. The Higgs and the cat suddenly seemed like two monsters disguised as science, waving their "hypothetical" paws at me and I couldn't decide if they are really as harmless as they seem to be. And it drove me crazy.
But just like how all adventure tales end, over time I realized that even the scariest monster can be tamed if you are determined enough (or in some cases, if you are a whiny teen with a scar on your forehead and your enemy dies by committing suicide). I didn't have my crystal ball with me when I arrived, but even without it I knew that I could only survive if I opened myself up to find out as much as possible about my enemies.
Armed with the age-old wisdom of 'Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer', I set out on a mission to acquire as much knowledge as I could about the unpredictable Higgs and kitten. They were the symbolic representations of everything that was mysterious, incomprehensible and unfamiliar to me, and I couldn't wait to reveal their darkest secrets. Unfortunately for me, I am not a scientist, nor an animal trainer. And the most interesting experiment on the topic of mind reading I have ever done involved me and my 6 year old brother, some poker cards and a mirror.
So even if the Higgs and the kitten are, metaphorically speaking of course, unfamiliar territory, I knew that I would have no choice but to face it head on. And that is where the beauty of CERN lies.
This is a place where finding out about the unknown is the heart of all research, and wandering into unfamiliar territory is the way to go. The buildings are scattered and numbered without any logical coherence but opportunities are abundant. People are different and unpredictable but they are also kind, inquisitive and creative. You walk into a big hall not knowing what to expect and are suddenly greeted with a grand piano. Some guy does yoga and stands on his head right in the middle of the field in full view of everyone having lunch. You have some of the brightest brains in the world gathered in one place, and yet nobody hesitates to applaud and cheer if you decide to run the annual marathon wearing just a hat. This is a place where every possible differences you can think of come together, fight, kiss, make up, compromise and advance together.
I set out to conquer the Higgs and the kitten, but we ended up becoming friends. When one is immersed in an environment so receptive to foreign things and occurrence, you can't help but to slowly shake off that protective color and evolve. When in search of some worldly pursuit, we are often held back by our own perspectives and become slaves of our mind. But in the one year course of living with the Higgs and the Kitten, I learned that when something doesn't fit into my pre-conceptions, I can widen my perspectives to accommodate them. Even for something as flighty as say, a kitten.
And that is the story of the Higgs and the kitten.
The world changes every day. Every day you discover something new about the people around you or yourself. So one day if you find yourself stuck in a pickle with some strange object with a name you have never heard of, or an unknown creature with sharp claws, remember one thing – the best way to tame a bull is by grabbing it by its horns. And of course, have your friends back you up while you do that.
And then celebrate with a beer.

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Carlos Alberto Parreira led Brazil to the World Cup title 16 years ago, but he feels as though his current team - South Africa - is an even better group of players to work with.
Parreira has worked with numerous national and clubs teams since his first job at club team Sao Cristovao in Brazil more than 40 years ago. He guided Kuwait to the World Cup in 1982, the United Arab Emirates in 1990 and Saudi Arabia in 1998, in some of his other international stops.
South Africa earned an automatic berth as hosts of the 2010 World Cup, and now the veteran coach hopes he can work magic on his team's own soil.
Although other African countries Cameroon, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Nigeria are more likely to remain in the tournament through the group stage, Parreira does not rule out a berth in the knockout round for the overlooked Bafana Bafana.
"Believe me when I say we are going to cause surprises at the World Cup," he said on FIFA's website.
South Africa is an underdog, but Parreira still faces pressure as no host has ever failed to reach the knockout stage. South Africa opens the tournament against Mexico on June 11, and also plays France and Uruguay in Group A.
"I am not asking them to win all three matches, but I have told the squad to perform well and the results will follow," Parreira said.
Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar and West Ham forward Benni McCarthy form the heart of the South African team and the English Premier League players need to play well for the Bafana Bafana to advance.
Pienaar has 46 appearances for South Africa and has developed into a prominent player for Everton, which finished seventh in the EPL last season.
McCarthy has a great international record, with 35 goals in 83 appearances and will once again be counted on to find the net this summer.
Siyabonga Nomvethe, who has played 74 times for South Africa, returned to the team after a three-year absence and could play for Parreira in the World Cup. The forward scored the only goal in South Africa's only World Cup victory, 1-0 over Slovenia in 2002.
"All I want to do is to contribute towards making this World Cup a memorable one for my country. I hope that I can add value in this team," Nomvethe told FIFA's website.
Forwards Bernard Parker, who has eight goals in 26 international matches, and Katlego Mphela, who has 12 goals in 26 games, are other attacking options.
Teko Modise, MacBeth Sibaya and Siphiwe Tshabalala are midfielders with more than 40 international matches.
Captain Aaron Mokoena, who plays at Portsmouth, is the team's most experienced defender with 99 international games.
Although South Africa lacks the big-name stars like Africa's other qualifiers, Pienaar and McCarthy could easily lead this team through the group stage.
And Parreira knows he will get his players' best effort in every game, even if South Africa is not favored in any of its matches.
"This is the best bunch of footballers I have worked with and that includes Brazil," Parreira said. "These boys are motivated, hard working, committed and determined to do well despite being written off."

AXE recently launched a new campaign, which is aimed at redefining what it means to be a man. As part of the campaign, AXE coined and introduced a new word to the English language. The new word is 'bathsculinity,' according to the brands, the word means the concept of being confident in yourself inside and outside of the bathroom.
About AXE's Bathsculinity Campaign
AXE's latest Bathsculinity campaign, that was created to redefine what masculinity means was created by the creative agency 72andSunny Amsterdam. According to AXE brand, the campaign was created to reduce the pressure on young men to conform to past concepts masculinity. The bathsculinity campaign aims to encourage men to be themselves and have fun while they are it.
To help drive home the basculinity concept, the grooming brand released a series of short films to their US audience. The campaign borrows the comedic chops of comedian Lil' Rel Howery, he stars in each short films. In the grooming brand's tongue-in-cheek ads, we see Lil' Rel Howery drive the message with his comedic style. As part of the basculinity campaign, AXE will be adding the word basculinity and its definition on Wikipedia and the Urban Dictionary. By doing this the grooming brand is trying to spread the message further while also demonstrating the seriousness of the campaign.
72andSunny Amsterdam Speak on the Bathsculinity Campaign
The creative director of the creative agency in charge of the campaign (72and Sunny Amsterdam) Adam Koppel spoke about the campaign. He talked about the purpose of the whole campaign, he stated that it was created to start a new conversation around masculinity in the 21st century. They want to start a conversation about what it really means to be a man in the 21st century. He talked about how finally stereotypes are being recognized for what they are. He also talked about how men are now being encouraged to express themselves more freely and to look after themselves.
This is not the first time the Unilever-owned brand has to redefine masculinity with its commercials. In 2016, the brand also redefines masculinity and celebrated individuality by launching a global campaign titled 'Find Your Magic.'

arenas of the past, managers of smaller enterprises could remain local if they desired, and they could be reasonably assured of insulation from the forces of international competition (2000). If
they decided to expand into markets abroad, they would be able to acquire and internalize the resources needed and do this incrementally over time (2000). Thus, small and medium sized
businesses did not have to worry about steep competition or funding to expand globally. However, that was the way of the past. Things have changed immensely for small businesses. In
the new, intensified competitive environment, both small and medium-sized enterprises, or SMEs, have to achieve world-class efficiency in order to survive (Etemad & Wright, 2000). This is true whether or
not they actually compete globally as they can no longer afford the luxury of achieving such efficiencies gradually, or through a sequential evolution, or through the use of their own
resources (2000). As a result, it has become more and more difficult for independent, small businesses to survive unless they are globally competitive (2000). This is a significant change from
the past and something for which all small business owners need to be cognizant. While many preclude small business from marketing overseas due to the competitive nature of business in
general, this again is no longer the case. Small and medium sized businesses must expand and they do this with regularity. For example, there are several small and mid-sized Central
New York businesses that have been trading successfully overseas for a number of years (Fitting, 1997). Many of these endeavors focus on marketing products, and the products range from high-tech
machinery to small items like wrist-coil key-holders (1997). Another example is that two Massachusetts agencies are competing to build connections with travel agents and tour operators and marketing firms overseas

Oljharok's eyes snapped open. He gazed at the unconscious boy in front of him, shock glinting in his eyes.
"I didn't think a mere remnant consciousness had enough power to chase me out. Lady Gahrona really is mysterious and unpredictable. Can this brat pass her test?" muttered he.
It wasn't the first time he had experienced a severed mental link, so it didn't sock him too badly. But now that his spell had failed, there was no point in him remaining there. There was nothing he could do to help. Everything now depended on the boy. He called his subordinates and had them haul the kid back to his room.
The various accounts of history all said the inheritors of legacies had to rely on themselves to wake up again. Since it might take quite a while, sending the boy back to his room was the best choice.
A tantalizing human female appeared beside Leguna. Her tanned skin looked healthy and filled with vigor, while her figure was comparable to that of Vera.
She had short hair, like Annelotte's had been two years ago, but they were black. Her face was comparable to Annelotte's as well in terms of beauty. But, whilst Annelotte's face bubbled with the innocent beauty of a young maiden, this woman's face was boundlessly bewitching.
Annelotte gave others the impression of cold beauty, like a piece of ice. She felt unapproachable, like destiny had decreed she may only be observed from afar. Everyone acknowledge her beauty, but it was a kind of beauty that made one ashamed of desiring it. The desire to approach her alone was blasphemy already.
This woman was completely different, she was beautiful and infinitely tempting. Her slanted eyes left a trail of wanting wherever she gazed and the corner of her lips twitched teasingly. In simple terms, she was a temptress that inspired limitless imagination in anyone who set their eyes on her.
Leguna stared at her blankly. She gazed back curiously. The two checked each other out, neither wanting to speak first. Leguna was the one that gave in first. His will to resist her tantalizing gaze gave in, and he spoke.
"May I ask if you're Senior Gahrona?"
"I am her," answered the woman in a coarse, rousing voice, "Don't call me lady or anything like that. It makes me feel like an old crone."
Not just any old crone, an old orc crone, thought Leguna harshly.
He didn't dare appear disrespectful, so he didn't make his thoughts known.
"I heard you were an..."
Gahrona smirked. The slight change in her expression doubled her temptuous aura.
"You were going to say I'm an orc, yes?"
"Yes," admitted the kid with a lowered head.
He felt he would go crazy if he stared at her for too long.
"I did this for your sake, you know," Gahrona said, a hint of laughter in her words, "Would you feel more comfortable if I looked like this?"
Leguna lifted his gaze and found a female orc standing in front of him. The orc's gaze was still somewhat tempting, but her tusks disturbed him. It appeared the orc really was considerate of his feelings.
"I don't have an actual physical body, so I can look however I want," explained the female orc as her form morphed back into that of a human female, "I thought this would make you feel more comfortable."
"Senior is right," agreed Leguna as he looked down again.
Gahrona smirked again, but Leguna didn't see it. She circled him.
"Assassin, shadow dancer, 11th-stratum, human..."
The object of her scrutiny remained silent. She had completely seen through him just by taking a brief look.
"I didn't think my descendants would allow a human to inherit my legacy," she praised, "This is the first time I've seen such a pure affinity for the dark aspect. Even mine is slightly inferior. So, how many gifts have you awoken so far?"
"Two..." Leguna said with some thought, before he corrected, "Maybe three. I still don't have complete control over my third."
"What are they capable of?" pressed the woman.
Leguna looked at Gahrona silently. She smiled.
"You don't have to be so wary of me, kid. I'm just a remnant will. I might disappear for good after the transfer. Even if I wanted to, there's no way I can reveal anything about you to anyone else."
"Oljharok could communicate with me just inside. Is he's still listening?" Leguna was incredibly cautious.
"Come oooon—" she suddenly tugged his hands and shook it left and right. "—I'm just curious, okay? There's nothing wrong with telling, is there? I've chased that priest away. I used to be a saint-ranked expert, so I have at least that much dignity, you know."
Leguna sweated all over. He knew he was facing an old, granny-level orc, but he couldn't digest her disguise and flirting.
He gazed at her innocent, hopeful eyes and felt his will melt away. She was only a remnant consciousness indeed; what harm was there in sating her curiosity about something so trivial?
He eventually revealed his first two gifts stutteringly. His third, Shadow Blink, which he had yet to master, he could only vaguely describe.
"You fell for it!" Gahrona said the moment Leguna finished, "I have a way to contact others. Let me see... I wonder if I can sell this for something useful for the orcs! They will praise me for being devoted even in death! Hehehehe!"
"Y-y-you!" Leguna's veins twitched furiously. The woman's ungraspable personality frustrated him greatly.
"You fell for it again!—" The orc retracted her smile. "—Kid, you're quite talented, but you believe others too easily. You were actually fooled so easily!"
Leguna froze when he realized all the expressions he had just seen, as pure as they appeared, were just an act to test how alert he was.
Ah! I failed already! moaned he.
However, a smile surfaced on Gahrona's face again.
"But that's fine, since you're still young."
Leguna stared at her, speechless. He couldn't tell whether this woman was trying to assess him or just mess with him anymore.
"Alright. Kid—" She patted his shoulders. "—I'm quite satisfied with your talent. You qualify to be my disciple in that regard at least."
Was he going to get a teacher? Wasn't he supposed to be inheriting a legacy?
"What? You don't wanna? When I was still alive there were thousands of assassins, of many different races, that wanted to be my disciples. Not one struck my fancy. You should be honored you did."
"It's not that..." Leguna naturally didn't dare to be fussy. "—I already have a teacher."
"Oh? Who has such a good eye?"
"Wayerliss, Wayerliss Deepshadow," Leguna proudly declared.
Gahrona looked at the kid oddly for a moment. Her eyes twitched and the corner of her mouth lifted as she pressed her lips together unnaturally.
"Pfff... Pfft! Ahaha… hahahahahahahaha! Wayerliss?! That little elf who used to soil himself the moment he saw blood?! He even got the nickname Deepshadow now and is your teacher?! Hahahaha! Tell me, what part of him impressed you?"
"Teacher's a saint-ranked assassin and the chairman of Moonshadow Thieves!" Leguna felt he needed to defend his teacher's dignity.
"Oh? So that kid actually became a saint? And what in the world is this Moonshadow Thieves? Speaking of which, how many years has it been since I died?" asked Gahrona suddenly.
"Hmmm… I'm not really sure. A hundred years at the very least."
"Ah, it's been so long? I bet quite a lot has changed, hasn't it?" asked she softly, her appearance slightly desolate and bleak.
Her gaze seemed to be asking whether he'd spoken the truth.
Leguna could feel the melancholy in the once-world-shaking assassin's gaze.
"Alright, let's stop talking about this—" Gahrona took a deep breath and recovered her previous state. "—You don't have to worry. I can't be sure of Wayerliss's current strength, but I have a good idea of what he'd amount to. While he is quite adept at scheming and plotting, he'd be a little too fresh to teach you actual combat and assassination."
As expected of a legendary assassin! Her words are so confident! thought Leguna.
In the ten or so years he had lived, he once thought Arikos was the strongest person there could be, only to find out he was merely someone Wayerliss ordered around on errands. He then placed Wayerliss on a pedestal in his heart. But now, Gahrona actually called his idol a 'fresh little fellow'. He finally understood what the saying 'there's always a mountain taller than the one you know' truly meant.
"But..." he tried to cautiously remind her, "You're only a remnant will. You might dissipate at any moment. How could you become my teacher?"
"I already said I was lying," she replied, smiling seductively, "I'm not some remnant will. I am Gahrona herself. I'm an incomplete soul now, but I am the original. As for dissipating, we don't need to worry about that right now. Aren't you carrying that on you? It won't be a problem as long as you do. Come to think of it, if it weren't for that, I would never agree to let you inherit my legacy! Alright, I need to check your performance in other areas now. If you pass, then you'll have the honor of becoming my first disciple."

Enjoy A Super Satisfying Ninja Show At The Iga Ninja Museum!
Written by Osawa Kumi
Enjoy a ninja performance featuring real weaponry at the Iga-ryu Ninja Museum in Mie Prefecture. After the show, try flinging some shuriken for yourself!
At the Iga-Ryu Ninja Museum in Iga City, Mie, in addition to visiting ninja houses and ninja tool displays, you can enjoy a ninjutsu show by the Iga ninja troupe Ashura, a humorous performance that packs a real punch. When you come to the museum, by all means, check it out.
For more about the Iga Ninja Museum, check out our article about it.
There is a sign posted near the Ninja Museum entrance that introduces the subject matter and schedule of the show. To see the performance, be aware that you need to pay 400 yen in addition to the admission fee. You can confirm details about the show schedule on this page.
The show venue is in a corner of the museum grounds. Pay at the entrance. You will also see a few guests clad in ninja gear, scattered here and there, as well as cute ninja children.
At Last, Let's Head to the Venue
The audience seating area is here, and can hold 180 people per performance. Note that taking photos and videos is prohibited.
Also, because the performers use real weapons, take care not to move during the show, and keep your phone in manner mode. On the other hand, it's important to get excited along with the MC, to clap, and to cheer.
Real Blades Before Your Eyes!
The content of the show varies daily, and on the day we went, it started with a performance featuring real swords. The cast talked about the blades and used them in the show.
Apparently, a straw bundle soaked in water overnight develops the same rigidity as a human neck. That solid bundle was easily sliced apart right before our eyes.
The cast will approach the seats and explain the traits of Japanese blades from close up.
The sword on the left is known as a ninjato. It is characteristically straight like a spear, unlike the curved sword of a samurai. It is more of a stabbing weapon than a slicing weapon, and ninjas would also thrust it into the ground to serve as a foothold when clambering up walls.
The Archery Show Scores a Bullseye!
With the bow in the hands of an expert archer, the gunpowder Daikoku fire arrows, as they are known, blasted through the air for a distance of 150 to 200 meters. The booming sound will make you involuntarily cover your ears, so keep this in mind if you are accompanied by small children.
What is the Secret Behind Ninja Blowguns?
After the performance is over, there is a section where ninjas recruit guests who are interested in trying to fire an actual blowgun. The blowgun is said to have been a lethal weapon, with darts that would cause various ill effects. By steeping their blowgun darts in horse manure for several days, ninjas could afflict their targets with tetanus, which is a little creepy.
Even Cords Become Weapons!
Iga-Ueno is famous for its traditional kumihimo craft, a cord made of braided silk and cotton. While you might not be able to see it as a weapon, they can become one of the strongest implements for battle in the hands of a ninja. First, they seize the enemy's sword with the cord.
After wrapping their enemy up in the cord, they deliver the killing blow with the blade they stole. The crowd went wild with applause.
Try Out a Shuriken Toss to Commemorate Your Trip!
While shuriken appear small and light, one shuriken actually weighs 200 grams, and they were not carried in large quantities, as seen in historical dramas. Also, by dipping their shuriken in toxic aconite, ninjas could inflict deadly wounds just by grazing their foes.
Shurikens come in all shapes and sizes, and can be flung one or two at a time.
After the show, you can pay an additional 200 yen to toss five shuriken. Test your ninja skills with shuriken that are lighter than the real thing! Just then, a cute boy in ninja attire was trying it out for himself.
Here are some shuriken that went wide off the target. You can earn special prizes depending on your score, so why not give it your best shot?
Take Commemorative Photos with the Ninjas!
You can also take pictures with the ninjas, and receive a complimentary Iga-ryu original gift, so how about memorializing your ninja trip? 300 yen with tax.
Adopting this "seal-binding" ninja pose, with index fingers pointed up, is said to calm the spirit and focus mental energies. Try striking a pose together.
There are not many facilities where you can enjoy ninja shows on a regular basis. During the Ise-Shima Summit, Ashura also tailored their performances for media consumption, so enjoy the show.

When I grew up. " His smile reached up to his eyes, which were bright and looking somewhere over my shoulder. "I've always had a fascination with Egypt, but I couldn't tell you when it started.
I was glued to the TV for every special on things archaeologists discovered.
The quaking outside intensified, so I pressed my lips together. Fisted my hands. Still, my legs swayed. Chris pulled on me until I stepped back, halting when my calves hit the edge of the bed.
I didn't think either were possible with my current position. If I didn't get offered the promotion, did I want to stay at the gym and keep living month-to-month. Paying rent. Of course, that turned my thoughts to my roommate.
Tumblr black big tits
I did shake my head then. Two peas in a pod, they were. I stepped away from my boyfriend and took a deep breath. "One last thing. " Chris raised his eyebrows.
I grabbed my jeans and sat on the edge of the bed. "Is it the same spot as last year?" "It should be. We'll find out when we get there. Don't put those on, I brought your khakis.
But the moment I took his cock in one hand and his balls in the other, his eyes drifted closed. He shivered and moaned, his fingers lightly tangling in my hair. Before I dipped my head, I saw his lips part.
I smiled and slowly stroked just the top length of his cock, eliciting a couple of sharp inhales from him.

The water was warm now, but it was wet and helped my dry throat. "I don't think-" Dirk started. I held up my hand, and Chris said, "She's not done. " "Case in point, Thanksgiving," I said once I could talk again.
Keep paying your rent for now. The money Dirk gave me will supplement Jolie's half of my rent for a while. Once Will gets on his feet, you can get rid of the apartment. It's cheaper to stay here paying only half of the rent, plus you're going to need space to study in when you go back to school.
"Whoa. It had an hour to go when I grabbed the ring. Plus, I set a timer. It's all good. " I flopped back on the bed with a deep sigh.

EDAL case summaries
UK - LC (Albania) v The Secretary of State for the Home Department and The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, 9 May 2017
This case dealt with the issue of whether the Supreme Court's four-stage test for the determination of sexual orientation asylum claims, set out in HJ (Iran) and HT (Cameroon) v Secretary of State for the Home Department ("HJ (Iran)"), still held good, specifically the third and fourth stages which draw the distinction between those who would conceal their sexual orientation and whether the material reason for that is fear of persecution or for other reasons.
UK – F v M and A (a child) and Secretary of State for the Home Department Joint Counsel for the Welfare of Immigrants (Interested Party), Case No: FD15P00103, 26/04/2017
Following the careful examination of International, European and domestic law, the Court concluded that the grant of refugee status supersedes any order made by a Family Court (regarding the return of the child to Pakistan), because it is the Secretary of State for the Home Department that is the entrusted public authority to deal with asylum matters. However, were the Family Court to discover new facts, the relevant public authority would be responsible, in principle, under the tenets of UK Administrative Law to review their decision.
This case dealt with the extent to which in the case of a child the prospect of discrimination could amount to a real risk of persecution sufficient to found a successful asylum claim in a situation where a comparably placed adult would not be at such a risk.
This case dealt with the issue of whether the Secretary of State's certification of the asylum claims of the two independent applicants as "clearly unfounded" was flawed on public law grounds, and the important difference between a decision on refugee status itself and a decision on a claim being "clearly unfounded".
There is a real risk that by virtue of his predicted employment in the media sector the Appellant will be persecuted for political opinion and/or that a breach of his rights under Articles 2 and 3 ECHR will occur.
The Appellant is not to be denied refugee status on the ground that it would be open to him to seek to engage in employment other than in the journalistic or media sector.
UK - House of Lords, 18 October 2006, Fornah v. Secretary of State for the Home Department (linked with Secretary of State for the Home Department v. K) [2006] UKHL 46
The case concerned a woman who feared return to Sierra Leone because she would face gender specific persecution in the form of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). The issue was whether she was entitled to recognition as a refugee because she feared persecution on account of her membership of a particular social group. Her appeal was allowed on the basis that women in Sierra Leone and, alternatively, uninitiated women who had not been subjected to FGM in Sierra Leone, were particular social groups.

Gender in the Night: Juan de la Cruz and Cecilia del Nacimiento

GENDER IN THE NIGHT: JUAN DE LA CRUZ AND CECILIA DEL NACIMIENTO Elizabeth Rhodes Boston College Et dixi: Forsitan tenebrae conculcabunt me; Et nox illuminatio mea in deliciis meis. (Psalmus 138.11 [St. Jerome's Vulgate]) T he notion of "the dark night of the soul," the subject of the two mystical poems under consideration here, has passed itself through a remarkable metamorphosis. The phrase is generally understood to have originated in Plotinus (?205-270? C.E.), who used it to describe the radiant darkness that characterizes the final phases of mystical union (Underhill 15). St. Juan de la Cruz made the expression famous in his eight-stanza poem "Noche oscura," whose subject Kieran Kavanaugh describes as "the painful passage through the night, and the unspeakable joy of encountering God" (353). From this celestial height, the same expression has suffered something of a fall into popular discourse, and is used today to describe any difficult circumstance. For example, on a website for a software company recently in financial distress, one finds "The Dark Night of the Soul" heading a page that opens, "The last quarter of Autodesk's fiscal year has always been the most difficult . . . " (Autodesk). This leap illustrates the ability of certain powerful signifiers to remain fixed while what they signify crosses large semantic distances, particularly over long expanses of time. What follows is a consideration of a similar leap, at work not along the axis of geography or time, rather of gender. The lexical and anecdotal similarities between Juan de la Cruz's "Noche oscura" and Cecilia del Nacimiento's "Canciones de la unión y transformación del alma en Dios" (hereafter "Canciones") point to some kind of a relationship between the two: both employ apophatic tropes of darkness and cast the human soul as a lover whose desire for her beloved leads her to seek him out and become one with him in joy.1 The fact that Cecilia del Nacimiento's "Canciones" were actually attributed to Juan de la Cruz for several hundred years is CALÍOPE Vol. 13, No. 2 (2007), pages 39-61 40 Elizabeth Rhodes D D D D D testimony of both the high quality of her poem and its apparent kinship with his work.2 The connection between the two texts has been described as that of a poem and its gloss, or one text that inspires another, with Cecilia del Nacimiento as the imitator and Juan de la Cruz the imitated. Boyce and Olivares refer to the "Canciones" as a verse contemplation on Juan de la Cruz's text (148); Toft says the Carmelite nun's poem is based on Saint Juan de la Cruz's (84); Arenal and Schlau find that it explicates and expands Juan de la Cruz's mystical theme (144).3 The poems have much in common; they share the theme of the mystical union of the soul with God, embodied in a female protagonist who leaves one space to seek out her lover in another. Furthermore, both use standard mystical signifiers of night, light, and fire, culminate in an exclamatory stanza that masks the moment of union, and end depicting a dissolution into bliss. These representational tools could have been drawn from the common pool of tropes that characterize Catholic mystical writings, writings indebted to Christian interpretations of the Song of Songs. Although written after Juan de la Cruz's poem, Cecilia del Nacimiento's is not constrained by his, and in fact may be read as a different answer to the same question to which he responds in "Noche oscura": what is the state of the soul it its final approach to and encounter with the divinity? In what follows, I would like to suggest that the gendered conditions of mystical representation, conditions that reflect gender socialization, are manifest in the differences between the Discalced Carmelite nun's verse account of the soul's union with God and that of the Discalced Carmelite friar. In this context, the distinctions between the two texts illuminate not only the plurality of paths leading to God, buy also the vivid differences between the way in which early modern man rendered his path to God and...

Monthly Parish Walk
Parish Walk – 21 March 2020
Parish Walk to Islingham Farm-Saturday 21st March 2020 – CANCELLED
It is with huge regret that we are cancelling tomorrow's walk. Nicholas, our vicar, has taken advice from the NHS and they are very cautious about encouraging gatherings. The situation, of course, is changing very quickly and we will keep it under review.
This is a great disappointment to us all. These are very challenging times of course. We need to keep our spirits up, and we would encourage you to walk into the countryside on your own if you can, and are well, but please don't try to meet up with others.
As soon as the situation changes we will be in touch. Meanwhile keep safe and well, and if you are feeling down do get in touch with us.
Best wishes
Judith and Rob
Meet at the Parish Hall on the corner of Church Green and Murray Road.
Join us on Saturday 18th January 2020 to get the new decade started with a great walk.
This walk of just under 3 miles goes to Upnor and back by a circular route. Mostly on
footpaths, this walk reveals some of Medway's hidden gems including Upnor Castle, the
estuary by St. Mary's island, and woods and footpaths. We will return for hot or cold drinks, and tasty treats. Dogs on leads welcome; children under 14 must be accompanied. Please be prepared for muddy conditions after the recent rain. It will below tide but there is a stretch by the river that may be wet under foot (there is an alternative route by road) .
Parish Hall Frindsbury, Corner of Church Green and Murray Road ME2 4HJ
Walk around Manor Farm and Wainscott
Don't we all need a break from the Christmas preparations, and we have just the thing. Join us on our shorter walk this month exploring the footpaths, streets and developments close by.
Our walk is under 2.5 miles and explores the semi-rural area around Manor Farm, and the changes either under way, or under discussion, before moving on to Wainscott recreation ground, where there are swings for the younger ones, and the option of the outdoor gym for those of us who'd like to burn off a few calories before Christmas. We return to All Saints church for hot and cold drinks and seasonal tasty treats.There are no steep climbs on this walk, and we will be using footpaths or quiet streets nearly all the time.Please be prepared for muddy conditions after the recent rain. Dogs on leads welcome; children under 14 must be accompanied.
Feel free to wear your Santa hat or reindeer antlers!
All welcome. Please feel free to invite family, friends and neighbours.
To Haven Street Wood
16 November 2019
It was a perfectly dry day for our fabulous walk to Haven Street Wood. Even with the option of a shorter walk, many people chose the muddier and longer full route, braving three stiles and a fallen tree. We are delighted to say no-one slipped and all were accounted for on arrival back. Those who chose the gentler option still saw some superb autumn colours and got first dibs on the treats table. The egg muffins and cheese scones were particularly popular. We have gained a pair of very small wellies which we hope to re-unite with their owner before it rains again. This owner could be the one we spied stretched out fast asleep on a pew during refreshments.
Many thanks to those who brought treats for the table, those who took photos (do share them on our All Saints Frindsbury events Facebook page), and to Jane and Nan for tail-walking.
Our next walk is on Saturday 21st December with more details to follow. However, don't forget the Santa hats and Rudolf antlers for our Christmas special!
Happy Walking!

Guaifenesin protocol
Guaifenesin protocol is an experimental, alternative treatment for fibromyalgia proposed in the 1990s by R. Paul St. Amand, MD. The treatment involves three parts: titrating to the proper guaifenesin dosage, avoiding salicylates, and following a low carbohydrate diet if the patient is hypoglycemic. Guaifenesin has not been approved by the FDA for the treatment of fibromyalgia, and the protocol has not been shown to be effective in clinical trials as of 2005. It has been adopted by many due to anecdotal evidence of success.
Additional recommended knowledge
Treatment details
Guaifenesin dosage
The dosage is individually determined by slowly titrating the dosage up until a worsening of symptoms is noticed and there is a decrease of the lesions that can be palpated in the muscles. Patients begin with 300 mg twice a day and increase from there. The guaifenesin should be pure guaifenesin and not a preparation including other medications.
Avoiding salicylic acid
Salicylic acid in even tiny amounts blocks guaifenesin from binding in the kidneys. It is present in many drugs such as aspirin, Salsalate, Disalcid, Anacin, and Excedrin. Plants produce salicylic acid, so herbal medications must be avoided as well as plant oils, gels and extracts in cosmetics and any product that touches the skin. These ingredients include aloe, castor oil, camphor, and mint. Any plants can be eaten, however, because the small amount of salicylic acid present in food is broken down in the digestive system and tagged with glycine by the liver before reaching the kidneys.
Treating hypoglycemia
Many symptoms of hypoglycemia (or perhaps more aptly titled Carbohydrate Intolerance) are similar to fibromyalgia, and while leaving hypoglycemia untreated will not hinder the reversal of the disorder with guaifenesin, the symptoms will continue to plague the patient. The only treatment is a life-long avoidance of simple sugars, caffeine, starchy foods, and any other foods that cause insulin spikes.
Theory of fibromyalgia cause
This theory involves phosphate accumulation in cells that eventually reach a level to impede the ATP process, possibly caused by a kidney dysfunction or missing enzyme that prevents the removal of excess phosphates from the blood stream. This theory posits that fibromyalgia is an inherited disorder, and that phosphate build up in cells is gradual (but can be accelerated by trauma or illness). Calcium is required to buffer the excess phosphate when it enters the cells. The additional phosphate slows down the ATP process; however the excess calcium prods the cell to action. The causative mechanism in the kidneys is unknown.
The phosphate build-up theory explains the myriad symptoms present in fibromyalgia and provides an underlying cause, but remains strictly theoretical. There is no conclusive evidence that the phosphate build-up theory is correct, or that Guaifenesin protocol is effective.
Results of the only known randomized clinical trial were made available in 2003 (R. Bennett & P. Clark). It found that guaifenesin had no significant effects on pain, other symptoms, or laboratory measures over 12 months in a sample of people diagnosed with fibromyalgia syndrome, however, the study did not control the intake of salicylates absorbed through the skin via cosmetics.
This theory arose when Dr. St. Amand noticed that patients with fibromyalgia symptoms had an increase of tartar on the teeth in the form of calcium phosphate. Crystals are also often found on urinalysis which further points to calcium phosphate, and muscle biopsies show an increase of phosphate in the cytosol. Lesions of muscles, tendons, and ligaments can be felt by a method of palpation called mapping developed by Dr. St. Amand. These lesions are thought to be contracted cells forming a spastic area caused by an excess of calcium in the cytosol of the cells.
The treatment was discovered serendipitously when the physician found that uricosuric drugs for treating gout also coincided with relief of fibromyalgia symptoms. Guaifenesin is mildly uricosuric but, unlike standard uricosuric drugs, has almost no side effects. Dr. St. Armand therefore began to study whether guaifenesin might relieve the symptoms of fibromyalgia while causing fewer side effects than other uricosuric drugs had caused.

At Home: Reflections on how it feels to be at home living a different kind of life
AS and A level photography students were given an external competition brief; At Home: Reflections on how it feels to be at home living a different kind of life. It is a very powerful and current brief and will go down in history as an event in time. It is a great way for students to think about their circumstance and embrace it through their creativity. Art is a therapeutic medium and over the past 6 weeks individuals, families and children have embraced the beauty of art. We should share and celebrate it and hope it will touch the hearts of many and make them smile in these unprecedented times.
Daisy Kenway
Living in a nationwide lockdown makes time seem to move differently. Hours, days and weeks blend together, with the only discernible changes coming with the weather and the light at different times of day. Although our surroundings remain the same, and every day may feel identical, nature reminds us that time is moving forward. At first this may seem daunting, however it also reminds us that with every day we move closer to a more promising future.
Aimah Naqvi
In this image I wanted to reflect the repetition of everyday activities, I shot the image in my room to keep the idea of isolation and entrapment from the outside world and I used props such as a phone to show how that is the only source to know what is going on outside, and the book to show how I am trying to keep myself busy by doing work or generally learning new things. Overall everyday feels the same and how we are limited to what we do at home.
Sanchia Edwards
To me, this piece represents several aspects of the lockdown: On the face of it, it shows how the once bustling streets are now quiet, only being walked by our key workers. On a deeper level however, I feel the piece represents just how isolating this time can be for some people and the impact that is having on their mental health; The location is significant to my mental health, as I suffer from PTSD from the arena attack, and with the third year anniversary looming, Ive personally found this lockdown detrimental to my health. With this being said, I believe a lot of people could find a sense of representation within this image, no matter where the location may have been.
I chose to title This piece "Oh how times have changed" as our concept of "normal life" has changed, and it feels quite distant from the reality we have now become accustomed to.
Better Days are on the Horizon, stay positive 🙂

The Fox Coin Master mobile app is a fun twist on the classic card and board game. It works with the person's Facebook account to let them be able to see their in-game friends and then have it pop up various things for their participation. It also does this very well, so the player does not even realize they are getting into any of these games. The Fox Coin Master game is set in the same game universe as the classic game "Jewel Quest". This character from the original game was a brown haired child with a cutie mark that allows him to use magic to make coins appear on the ground when he passes by them. Many of the newer additions to the game from the start made it seem like this may be the next great strategy game that was going to take over the gaming industry. At the time it was out, however, it was a fairly new concept and was not particularly popular. After the release of the game, it was quite successful and since then the game has been featured in many things. The Fox version of the classic game character became so popular that it made its way to other titles that were out, such as "Card Crawl"The Best Card Game". This proved that people were ready for something completely different than what they had experienced before. The Fox Coin Master mobile application is easy to use. The social aspect is an important part of the game, as you are able to see how many cards your friends have "saved" and this is also reflected in the cost of the cards in the mobile app. While you are playing the game, other players can also see how many cards you have earned, which makes them interested in playing with you. One thing that the Fox Coin Master game has going for it is that it is free to download and can be enjoyed by all ages. It is not only for children who play it because it is still a game that requires skill and strategy to be able to win at it. It is also not just for men who are into cards because it is still a game that can be enjoyed by those who are in their 50s and older. While there are several other cards available in the Fox Coin Master game, the two basic types of cards are gem and treasure. In the gem type, players can collect three gem stones that will allow them to cast spells that will help them in their quests. The treasure cards, on the other hand, are used for just playing against the computer. The Fox Coin Master mobile app also offers up something called the Raid Friends which is a place where players can invite other players that they want to take on raids with. The Raid Friends feature helps to keep players involved and encourages them to be a part of a real, live adventure instead of just playing a game. Once a raid is successfully completed, the loot and Coins collected is given to the winner, which is the player that is participating in the raid. The most difficult part of the game is playing the "Mines" which is the hardest part of the game to beat. However, with the Fox Coin Master game, the player will be rewarded for their efforts and they will be able to take the time to level up and earn more coins and gems in order to progress through the game. The Fox Coin Master game does not come without its risks but if the gamer takes the time to play and master it, they will be rewarded for their efforts with fun and excitement.

OK, while squirming through muddy crevices like giant earthworms, hundreds of metres below the earth's surface, isn't necessarily everyone's definition of a fun weekend, for friends Mike and Dave, it takes them straight to their happy place: "It's a phenomenal feeling that you can't really get anywhere else... underground, you don't know what's going to be there." To adventurous spirits, caving is one of the last bastions of real exploration – at least to those who can't fund trips into space or plummet themselves down to the depths of the ocean. It makes sense that the underground fixates, in a world where every inch of the earth's surface has already been traipsed over and mapped and carved up.
These two caving buddies are currently on a mission to connect a cave system in the Waikato region of the North Island of New Zealand. How do they describe being hundreds of feet under? "Like kneeling in a bath of porridge with a rainstorm coming down on your head."
Thanks to this short film, you can live vicariously through Mike and Dave, and get an incredible, rare glimpse underground – minus the slick mud, oppressive claustrophobia and threat of imminent death.

mmm beef
I'm sorry but that's horrible!!
You say a lot of work has been going on with it.... Am I looking at the same site!?!?
The text on your buttons needs some serious work, It's blocky and pixellated.
the border around your main content text gets cut off on the right hand side.
The rollover effects lagged badly for the first few seconds I was there.
and that text box
"Welcome to our Blogs Website.
Please enter the blog name of which you wish to view:"
What a daft idea! Anybody new to the site and unsure of the exact name of the blog they want will be stuck. Just show a list of the available Blogs.
I'm gonna assume (hope) that that Taurus page is just a holding page til you get some content. DO NOT use that image.
Sorry for being harsh but really something need to be done with it.
No ma'am, we in IT don't have a sense of humor we're aware of.
The border on the main content is ment to have the right side missing. It is in the CSS
And I am still working on the blogs page (I put that page their as a temporary page so people can quickly view a blog). I have mainly been working on the back-end http://www.dwsn.ath.cx/msg/index.php?user=dwsnCode:border-bottom:#FFFFFF thin solid; border-left:#FFFFFF thin solid; border-top:#FFFFFF thin solid; border-right:none;
I didn't put that image their, someone else did it (serious) and I have been working on a new image for it but i lost it and will post when I find it.
I might be able to fix the roll-over effects with some kind of javascript. I can't realy tell how fast the page will load in the "real world" because im on a 100mbs ethernet connection direct to the server.
Thanks, dandono.
ps. For the blogs idea I was thinking more of someone elses site linking to their blog but now I think im going to re-think that idea.
pps. The taurus page is the old design. I havn't realy worked on that project for a while and apperently "it's a good idea".
mmm beef
This site is in such a developmental stage that I can't even begin to critique it.
FYI, put a border on the right edge of the content box. Otherwise it looks sloppy, not creative. One more thing, blue text on a red background is one of the biggest no-no's known to man.
Why bust your *** with javascript for simple rollovers?!!?!Originally Posted by dandono_
Look at what is possible with unordered lists...
I don't get why people try to overcomplicate things... Like with flash... 99% of the time flash is unnecessary. Good (X)HTML and CSS will sort most if not all of the problems discussed so far.
No ma'am, we in IT don't have a sense of humor we're aware of.

An expert warned that Earth would have little time to react if a space rock from the asteroid belt gets dislodged from its orbit and heads toward Earth. If the asteroid is big enough, it could cause an impact event that could trigger mass extinctions on the planet.
The asteroid belt, also known as the main belt, lies in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter and contains various irregularly shaped space rocks. Unlike near-Earth objects, which are known to approach Earth from close distances, those in the asteroid belt usually remain within their orbits.
However, according to Carl Ejnar Nielsen of the University of Copenhagen, it is possible that an asteroid would get dislodged from its main belt orbit. This can be caused by a variety of factors such as a collision with another asteroid. It is also possible that the gravitational pull of Mars or Jupiter could change the asteroid's trajectory.
If this happens, Nielsen noted that the asteroid could end up on a collision course with Earth.
"Some may still sneak in on us. If an asteroid is deflected from its orbit in the asteroid belt to hit Earth half an orbit later, we have precious little time to act," he said according to Express.
According to Nielsen, a rogue asteroid from the main belt could catch Earth by surprise depending on the direction it's traveling. If it approaches from behind the Sun, Earth may not be able to detect the asteroid until it's too late.
"We may also miss an interstellar interloper, as its trajectory can be obscured by the Sun while on its inbound leg towards the Sun, after which it will present its dark side to us while outbound, maybe to hit with no warning in the middle of the day," Nielsen explained.
As noted by other scientists, the main belt, as well as other regions in space, may hide mountain-sized asteroids. If these massive space rocks find their way towards Earth, the resulting impact event could trigger a series of catastrophic effects that could eventually wipe out more than half of life on the planet.

Women more at risk of blood clots during first six months on 'The Pill'
Women who use birth control pills are at greater risk for developing blood clots during the first six months of oral contraceptive use, and they are at even greater risk when first starting the pill and when restarting the same pill or a different pill after a four-week or greater break.
The interim data comes from a large, prospective, observational cohort safety study on the increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), or blood clots, in women who use birth control pills. The study was funded by Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals Inc., makers of Yaz, one of the most popular brands of birth control pills.
Blood clots are a potential side effect for women who use combination birth control pills. But Bayer's Yaz and its sister pill, Yasmin, have come under fire in recent years for advertisements that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said overstated the drug's benefits and downplayed its risks.
Those criticisms were compounded when the pharmaceutical company was later hit by thousands of lawsuits from women or their family members who claimed that Yaz and Yasmin put them at even greater risk for serious health problems including blood clots, heart attacks, strokes, gallbladder damage, and even death. The lawsuits claim Bayer never fully warned women that using Yaz and Yasmin could potentially kill them.
Bayer has been quick to dismiss the charges against it, arguing that Yaz and Yasmin are no more dangerous than other birth control pills, calling blood clots a "well-established risk in women who use combination oral contraceptives (COCs).'" Bayer says it was important for the company to take a lead in the studying and communicating of the risks and benefits of combination birth control pills.
"The new information is helpful because while healthcare providers have long known about the risk of VTE associated with COCs, there was little information to indicate that there was an increased risk in women restarting COCs after a four week or greater period of non-use. This new information should provide both healthcare providers and women who choose a COC for contraception with additional information when making the decision to implement a pause in their COC routine," said Leo Plouffe, MD, Vice President, US Medical Affairs, Women's Healthcare, Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals.

The 1988 Union of Myanmar Foreign Investment Law (FIL) lays down the procedure for making proposals for foreign investments and to provide guarantees and incentives for foreign investors. The law allows foreign investors to establish 100% foreign-owned ventures or joint ventures in which the foreign partner is required to take at least a 35% equity stake. Priority is given to projects which promote exports, optimally exploit domestic natural resources, transfer high technology, increase employment, save energy or contribute to regional economic development and improve energy supply, transportation and communication.
Procedures related to the FIL further require that a minimum of $100,000 be brought into the country as investment. The form of incorporation of the business entity can be sole proprietorship, partnership or limited company. Incorporation of businesses not involving state enterprises is to be made under the Myanmar Companies Act. If the investment involves a state enterprise, incorporation must be made under the Special Companies Act.
As the private sector in Myanmar is still at an early stage in its development, it will be difficult in practice for foreign investors to find suitable local business partners. To deal with this problem, and also to assist Myanmar businessmen to familiarise themselves with various economic activities, the government has established a number of joint-venture corporations (JVCs) with the private sector. In most of the limited number of JVCs that have been formed the government's share is 50% or over. A holding company (The Union of Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited), formed with present and veteran members of the defence forces, has also been set up.
Foreign investors can enter into joint ventures with these organisations. They can also start joint ventures with state enterprises (indeed this is the preferred type of incorporation at the moment.) In addition, they can enter into joint ventures with local private business partners, or establish their businesses on a wholly-owned basis.
The Foreign Investment Commission (FIC) was appointed by the government in 1988 to approve applications for investment projects. The commission can also grant terms and conditions on the issuance of permits, monitor and evaluate the foreign investment situation, relax and amend the terms and conditions previously defined etc. The FIC is chaired by the Minister for Planning and Finance, with ministers from economic ministries as members. The commission has 11 members and an appointed secretary carries out the administrative matters of the FIC. It meets fortnightly. It should be understood that FIC approval is not a pre-requisite to foreigners doing business in Myanmar (unlike the permit to trade referred to later) so much as a means of obtaining certain concessions to assist in and facilitate the carrying on of business.
Apart from the right to repatriate profits and to withdraw legitimate assets on a winding up of their businesses, foreign investors can enjoy the following tax incentives:
- An income tax holiday for three years, with a possible extension. Foreign investments made under the FIL enjoy automatic exemption from income tax for three consecutive years. Other tax exemptions and reliefs are given on a case-by-case basis. For any enterprise producing goods or services, exemption from income tax is given for a period extending to three consecutive years, inclusive of the year of commencement of production of goods or services. In cases where it is beneficial for the state, exemption or relief from income tax may be granted for a further reasonable period depending upon the success of the enterprise in which investment is made.
- Exemption or relief from income tax on profits of the business if they are maintained in a reserve fund or reinvested within one year after the reserve is made.
- A grant of accelerated depreciation on capital assets. A right to accelerate depreciation on machinery, equipment, buildings and other capital assets used in the business, at a rate fixed by the FIC, to the extent of the original value for the purpose of income tax assessment.
- If the goods produced by an enterprise are exported, relief from income tax of up to 50% is granted on the profits accrued from the exports.
- Exemption or relief from customs duty or other internal taxes, or both, on machinery, equipment, instruments, machinery components, spare parts and materials used in the business which are imported, as far as they are actually required for use during the period of construction.
- Right to carry forward and set off losses for up to three consecutive years from the year the loss is sustained in respect of such losses sustained within two years immediately following the enjoyment of exemption or relief from income tax, for each individual enterprise.
- Permission to pay income tax on behalf of foreign employees and the right to deduct such payment from the assessable income.
- Right to pay income tax on the income of foreigners at the rates applicable to citizens residual enterprise.
- Deductions for research and development.
There is an unequivocal state guarantee against nationalisation and expropriation. The government also guarantees the repatriation in foreign currency of the rightful entitlement of the foreign investor after termination of the business. The FIL also recognises as a right the regular repatriation of the profits of the foreign investor and the repatriation of the savings of foreign employees engaged by the foreign investor. In this context the huge disparity between the official exchange rate and the black market rate is an obvious disadvantage.
There are certain economic enterprises, however, that are not permitted to be entered into by foreign investors, as follows:-
List of Economic Enterprises which the government reserves the sole right to undertake
1. Extraction of teak and sale of the sale of the same in the country and abroad;
2. Cultivation and conservation of forest plantation with the exception of village-owned fire-wood plantations cultivated by the villagers for their personal use;
3. Exploration, extraction and sale of petroleum and natural gas and production of products of the same;
4. Exploration and extraction of pearls, jade and precious stones and export of the same;
5. Breeding and production of fish and prawns in fisheries which have been reserved for research by the Government;
6. Postal and Telecommunications Service;
7. Air Transport Service and Railway Transport Service;
8. Banking Service and Insurance Service;
9. Broadcasting Service and Television Service;
10. Exploration and extraction of metals and export of the same;
11. Electricity Generating Services other than those permitted by law to private and co-operative electricity generating services; and
12. Manufacturing of products relating to security and defence which the Government has, from time to time, prescribed by notification.
