Debbie from Ashburn Age: 21. A charming little girl with a cute smile, a fairy in bed. In fact, miracles! I will give an unforgettable meeting!!
He starts fucking her hard in missionary while she rubs her clit with her soft fingers. While he fucked a girl, the rest watched, made out with each other and masturbated. My prick could hardly even fit into her little pussy but we managed somehow. She then laid on the ground as her girlfriend started fingering her hard. The hot naked woman passes her hands all over her body, feeling how slippery and slick oil makes her skin.
Molly from Ashburn Age: 33. There are many fantasies, yet no one to bring them to life. I will be glad to invite you for coffee, and then do not mind to continue at the hotel, where we will discuss our sensual dates in bed)
Hot Sexy Tan Teen With Sexy Curves Getting Fucked Porn Videos
She arches her back and moans. You declare under penalty of perjury that you are at least 18 years of age, consent to viewing adult-oriented materials and agree with all the Terms and Conditions. Her clit is sticking out from between her meaty pussy lips. I was passing by this house one day and by the pool was the hottest girl ever, playing with herself by the pool. That part when she is slowly sliding up and down on it is so sexy. Two young naked girls got the most fantastic fuck massage. He takes her downstairs and the sassy teen slut gets down on all fours on a white leather couch and he pounds her muff doggie style.
Valerie from Ashburn Age: 27. A charming girl with a gentle smile and a gentle look will invite you to visit or come to You.
Teresa from Ashburn Age: 33. I wish to meet interesting man for regular meetings.
Patty from Ashburn Age: 22. In my hot embrace you will forget about everything, experiencing fantastically pleasant emotions and a magical feeling that you are the most desired!
I squeezed her buttocks then put my hands on her breasts, her ass and her firm tits excited me even more. One of the girls pulled the blind down, and they began to jump on the guy, and his dick was out in a matter of seconds. Sexy naked girl rides his big dick like a rodeo, as her big juicy ass bounce all over. She would tease me in the process, making me even more excited to get to the good parts. These two beauties were laying around by the poll until one of the girls started to take the bikini off of another girl. XXX All rights reserved.

Hillary Clinton wants to be the US president but does not want to run because she feels entitled to the title which she feels was stolen from her, according to Myles Hoenig, an American political analyst and activist.
Hoenig said in an interview with Press TV on Tuesday that Clinton agrees with her handlers that any campaign would be a disaster like the last one.
In a recent interview, Clinton said that even though she doesn't want to run again for the White House, "I'd like to be president."
Her remarks come amid increasing speculation that the former secretary of state might launch another bid for the US presidency after the midterm elections.
Lost in 2016— David Vance (@DVATW) October 29, 2018
And still losing.
And will lose in 2020.
She is The People's Loser! https://t.co/j4QRCqQwLN
"It is understandable that Hillary Clinton wants to be president but not to run. The last time she tried she exposed herself as incorrigibly corrupt and incompetent as a campaigner. Add to that the utter humiliation of being defeated by Donald Trump and it's no wonder the other facet of her character comes into play; that she believes she's entitled to the throne, that campaigning is beneath her," said Hoenig, a former Green Party candidate for Congress.
"It is in her mind, as well as so many of her supporters, that the election was stolen from her by the Russians and she has every right and expectation to demand, not a re-match, but a coronation. Not having any clue what the Democratic Party constituents actually want in a future presidential candidate, Clinton believes the Old Guard knows what's best for the party and the nation," he stated.
"This mid-term election should set to rest what her party actually wants, and if the country is willing to go along. If the Democrats do re-take the House, the general consensus is that the voting nation wants a sea change, wants to put a halt to the excesses of the Trump administration. Yet to the Clintons and the Bidens of the party, the actual changing values that is being promoted now is still alien," he noted.
"Even since the primary when they sabotaged the Sanders campaign, the voting population has become more progressive, but the Old Guard was often successful in further sabotaging the new breed of candidates. The new kids on the block were ignored, and the DNC showed over and over again that they believe their old ways work best. The Kavanaugh fight also showed that the powers behind the Democratic Party had only one interest in mind, maintaining senatorial seats, even at the expense of overriding evidence of sexual predation and corruption at the highest levels of the Supreme Court. By providing cover for Sen. Manchin, the DNC showed that the Hillary wing of the party still dominates," the analyst noted.
"Hillary Clinton believes she has earned the right to be president, without going through the trial of campaigning once again. Her pedigree demands it and they see no reason why her perceived wisdom and experience should be encumbered by something as simple as the democratic process, something for which she has no understanding," he concluded.

The Sterling showed an upward movement versus the US Dollar after a report that said the European Union is prepared to grant another Brexit extension to the U.K. to prevent the country from leaving the bloc without a deal.
Focus on the key resistance level of 1.2428. In order for the GBPUSD upward movement to continue, it needs to rise and stay above 1.2428 on four hourly basis. Should this occur, we will see face 1.2502 as the next resistance level. Otherwise, we will see the support level at 1.2364.
Support : 1.2364 - 1.2286 - 1.2205

(ref. BAP-2020-430)
The Laboratory for Process Microbial Ecology and Bioinspirational Management of Campus Group T (PME&BIM; Centre of Microbial and Plant Genetics; Department Microbial and Molecular Systems) is internationally recognized for its research in the domain of plant-microbe interactions as well as plant-microbe-insect interactions. Within the research team an important focus is on biological control, i.e. the management of pests and plant diseases by the use of beneficial (micro)organisms.
In previous work, we found that microorganisms including yeasts and bacteria play an important role in the interaction between plants and insects, and between different insects. Microorganisms produce a wide diversity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that may directly affect insect behavior. Some compounds are attractive to insects, others may be repellent. In addition, they can change the composition of plant and insect VOCs, and thereby affect insect behavior indirectly. A profound knowledge of the role of microorganisms in the interaction between plants and insects and between pest insects and natural enemies will lead to novel insights to improve biological pest control.
We are looking for a dynamic and highly-motivated PhD student who will perform innovative scientific research in the field of biological control and chemical ecology. More specifically, we aim to improve biological control of pest insects by parasitoids (i.e. parasitic wasps that lay their eggs in other insects, their 'hosts') by an in-depth study of the role of microorganisms associated with their hosts, eggs or feces in the behavior of the natural enemies. Emphasis will be on both direct effects of the micro-organisms on the parasitoids and indirect effects via the plant.
The research activities will lead to a number of scientific papers and a PhD in Engineering Technology, and have a clearly practical applicable finality. The research will be performed under supervision of Prof. Bart Lievens and Prof. Hans Jacquemyn. Both have plenty of experience with high-quality PhD research. The successful candidate will be part of an international research team, and will get the chance to collaborate with expert researchers in the field of microbiology, chemical ecology and biological pest control from our own and other universities and research institutes, as well as with bachelor and master students and companies.
Interested candidates must have a master's degree in engineering technology, bioengineering, biology or equivalent.
Qualified candidates:
- have a strong interest and knowledge in the field of microbiology, plant protection, biological control and chemical ecology;
- are communicative and willing to present research results at (inter)national conferences, via social media and through teaching activities;
- are willing to supervise student/thesis projects;
- are willing to help with the teaching activities of the research team;
- are well-organized, flexible, critical-thinking and not afraid to take initiative;
- can work independently, but also have good teamwork skills;
- think in solutions, not in problems;
- Proficiency in English is expected for all applicants.
- Experience in conducting experimental research is a plus.
The successful candidate will be hired as a PhD fellow. We offer a one year contract which can be prolonged by another 4 years if the candidate is successful in acquiring an FWO-SB grant. Extension through other research means is also possible. Your main working place is the Laboratory for Process Microbial Ecology and Bioinspirational Management in Heverlee (Leuven).
For more information please contact Prof. dr. ir. Bart Lievens, tel.: +32 16 32 75 43, mail: email@example.com.
You can apply for this job no later than July 31, 2020 via the online application tool

I am trying to round the corners of the bars produced by a SCIFastImpulseRenderableSeries (pointMarker is hidden). Any suggestions how to do that?
Hello Alexandru,
Rounded lines aren't available out of the box, but what you can do is to try mimic that, but adding point marker with size which equals fo the boys width, that way you will have rounded bars for the impulse series.
Hope that helps.
Best Regards,

Shadi Khadivi was a true partner throughout my renovation project, from concept and permitting through punchlist. She combines expertise in historic buildings with a modern design sense that tends toward clean lines and practical materials. She studied my Houzz ideabooks to get a sense of my taste; asked all the right questions about how my family would use the space; drew alternative configurations to help me see the range of possibilities; and ultimately translated my vision and needs into reality. She proposed solutions I hadn't thought of, such as stacking the washer and dryer, and she actually built a scale model overnight to help me decide on the configuration for my built-in bookcases. In my Victorian home, we created a contemporary open floor plan and took advantage of the high ceilings to maximize storage space, while highlighting period details like the butler's pantry and elaborate woodwork. When I said I wanted to minimize waste by reusing my existing kitchen cabinets, repurposing vintage oak doors, and donating unneeded items to Habitat for Humanity and the Historic Albany Foundation, Shadi enthusiastically embraced the idea. Shadi introduced me to the outstanding local contractor that my husband and I ended up selecting for the project. She shopped with me—both online and going with me to showrooms— to select appliances, fixtures, and finishes and get the best prices. Some of my favorite things she suggested are the reasonably priced porcelain floor tile that looks like slate, and the glass jar pendants over the kitchen peninsula. As the work progressed, Shadi helped keep project timeline and budget on track by scheduling meetings and walking me through decisions and tradeoffs. She conducted innumerable site visits and served as liaison with the contractor. Not only did she validate my own observations, she brought an invaluable perspective: with her practiced eye, she saw things I may not have noticed or understood initially.

Transgenic expression of CD95 ligand on islet β cells induces a granulocytic infiltration but does not confer immune privilege upon islet allografts
Binding of CD95 (Fas/APO-1) by its ligand (CD95L) commonly induces apoptosis. Apoptosis of activated T cells, induced by CD95L expressed in the rodent testis, has been proposed to be the mechanism of immune privilege [Bellgrau, D., Gold, D., Selawry, H., Moore, J., Franzusoff, A. & Duke, R. C. (1995) Nature (London) 377, 630–632]. To test whether CD95L could protect pancreatic islet grafts from rejection, we made transgenic mice expressing murine CD95L on their islet β cells and transplanted fetal pancreata under the kidney capsules of allogeneic animals. Expression of CD95L failed to protect the grafts from rejection. However, transgenic mice developed a granulocytic infiltration in their pancreata. These results demonstrate a pro-inflammatory function of CD95L and suggest that expression of CD95L may not be sufficient to protect organ allografts.
There is a chronic shortage of human tissues for transplantation that would be relieved if methods that allowed humans to accept grafts of xenogeneic tissue were developed. One of the main barriers to acceptance of xenogeneic and allogeneic grafts is the T cell-mediated response of the host. Immunosuppressant drugs that depress T cell activity leave the host vulnerable to infectious attack. A strategy allowing specific deletion of only those T cells that recognized the graft would allow tolerance of the graft without general immunosuppression.
It has been proposed (1, 2) that CD95 ligand (CD95L) may be able to function as just such a graft-specific immunosuppressant for three reasons. First, the testis is known as an immune-privileged site as foreign tissues grafted into the testis, in which the Sertoli cells express CD95L, persist for longer periods than when transplanted elsewhere (3). Second, activated T lymphocytes are known to express CD95 (reviewed in ref. 4) and become sensitive to CD95-mediated killing at some time following exposure to antigen (5). Third, it has been reported that testis grafts from normal mice, but not CD95L-mutant gld mice, survive for extended periods in allogeneic hosts (1). These observations suggested that CD95L expressed by Sertoli cells in the testis induced apoptosis of activated T cells that would otherwise mediate graft rejection. Furthermore, it raised the possibility that enforced expression of CD95L might be used to confer immune privilege on other cell types (6).
BALB/c, C57BL/6Jax (B6), C3H/HeJ (C3H), and C3H/HeJgld (C3Hgld) mice were bred at The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute for medical Research. Rat insulin promoter (RIP)–CD95L transgenic mice were made by injecting a DNA construct consisting of the rat insulin II promoter (7) linked to the murine CD95L cDNA (8), and simian virus 40 poly(A) addition sequences, into fertilized B6 oocytes. Transgenic animals were identified by Southern hybridization of tail DNA using a RIP probe.
Cell Death Assays.
Adult islets were isolated by digestion with collagenase P (Boehringer Mannheim) at 0.8 mg/ml, purified on a BSA gradient (First Link, Brierly Hill, U.K.) as described (9), and then hand-picked 2-fold and dispersed with trypsin. About 60–70% of this preparation comprised β cells as determined by flow cytometry (data not shown). Islet cells were cultured overnight in DMEM/10% fetal calf serum (FCS) to allow reexpression of CD95L in case it had been damaged by the isolation procedure. The next day, SKW6 B lymphoblastoid cells were cocultured for 24 hr with control or transgenic islet cells at an approximate ratio of 10 or 20:1 (105 SKW6 cells/104 islet cells). CD95–Fcγ fusion protein (20 μg/ml) or tumor necrosis factor receptor–Fcγ fusion protein (20 μg/ml; data not shown) were added to cultures to block their respective ligands (10). As a positive control for CD95-induced apoptosis, SKW6 cells were treated with APO-1 antibody (11). Cell viability was determined after 24 hr by visual inspection because it was easy to differentiate the large islet cells from the small SKW6 cells under phase contrast microscopy.
Testis tissue from 6- to 8-week-old donors or pancreas from fetal (embryonic days 16–18) donors were grafted under the kidney capsule of 6- to 8-week-old male recipients. Fetal pancreata were cultured for 2 weeks in vitro to allow degeneration of the exocrine pancreas (12). Expression of CD95L on β cells of the cultured pancreata was determined by immunocytochemistry. Freshly cut testis slices (approximately 2 × 2 × 2 mm) were grafted directly. Recovered grafts were fixed in Bouin's solution. Sections were coded and the pathology was scored by an independent observer.
Preparation and insulin staining of Bouin's solution-fixed or acetone-fixed cryostat sections were as described (13). Rat mAbs to Mac-1α/CD11b (M1/70) and Gr-1 (RB6–8C5) were detected with fluorescein isothiocyanate-coupled anti-rat Ig (Vector Laboratories) or horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-coupled anti-rat Ig (Chemicon). A rabbit anti-mouse CD95L polyclonal antibody (AL82; ref. 14) was diluted 1:100 and detected with HRP-coupled anti-rabbit Ig (Dako) or fluorescein isothiocyanate-coupled anti-rabbit Ig (Silenus, Paris). Blocking using 2% FCS plus 10% normal mouse serum was done before staining with the rat or rabbit antibodies. Peroxidase staining was developed with diaminobenzidine, and sections were counterstained with hematoxylin.
CD95L Transgenic Mice.
To test whether CD95L could protect allogeneic islet grafts, we made transgenic mice expressing the murine CD95L cDNA (8) driven by the rat insulin II promoter (7) (RIP–CD95L mice). Two lines were investigated, one of which expressed a higher level of CD95L (RIP–CD95Lhi line) detectable by a rabbit polyclonal antibody (14) that showed a similar level of staining to Sertoli cells in the testis (Fig. 1 A and B). The other transgenic mice (RIP–CD95Llo line) expressed a lower level of CD95L which did not stain with the antibody by immunocytochemistry. Nevertheless, adult β cells from both lines expressed sufficient functional CD95L to give an apoptotic signal as islets from transgenic mice, but not those from control littermates, killed SKW6 B lymphoblastoid cells, which are susceptible to CD95-mediated apoptosis, in tissue culture (Fig. 2). Killing in this assay depended on CD95–CD95L interactions as it could be inhibited by CD95–Fcγ fusion protein that binds to and blocks CD95L (10). Killing was not inhibited by a control tumor necrosis factor receptor–Fcγ fusion protein that blocks tumor necrosis factor receptors (data not shown).
Most islets of young (9–12 days) RIP–CD95Lhi transgenic mice were infiltrated by large numbers of neutrophils, eosinophils, and macrophages, but not by lymphocytes (Fig. 3A). In older (8-week-old) mice, occasional foci of Gr-1+ granulocytes, macrophages, and a few CD4+ T cells were evident (Fig. 3B), and most of the transgenic islets were small and disorganized, with associated ductal fibrosis (Fig. 3D). No such pathology was seen in littermate controls (Fig. 3 C and E). Young RIP–CD95Llo transgenic mice had a similar, but milder, pathology, with most of the islets from adults appearing normal (data not shown).
A similar granulocytic infiltration was observed by Yagita and coworkers when they transplanted CD95L-expressing baby hamster kidney fibroblasts s.c. into nude mice (15). They hypothesized that neutrophil migration was mediated indirectly by the chemotactic cytokine interleukin 8 (IL-8). As ligation of CD95 on epithelial cells can induce secretion of IL-8 (16), we think it is likely that CD95L on the islet cells of the transgenic mice stimulated IL-8 secretion by neighboring CD95+ cells. Despite the infiltrates and fibrosis, none of the transgenic animals developed diabetes over a 30-week observation period.
CD95L Transgenic Transplants.
To test whether expression of CD95L would protect islets from rejection in allogeneic hosts, fetal pancreas grafts from C57BL/6 (B6) RIP–CD95L donors were transplanted under the kidney capsule of syngeneic (B6) or allogeneic (BALB/c) male recipients. Expression of CD95L by the syngeneic grafts in situ was confirmed by immunocytochemistry (Fig. 3F). This staining coincided with insulin staining in serial sections and thus identified the CD95L+ cells as β cells (data not shown). Syngeneic grafts from nontransgenic donors were recovered at 14 or 30 days (Table 1) and contained many islets that were free from inflammatory infiltrates (Fig. 3G). Syngeneic islets from RIP–CD95Lhi or RIP–CD95Llo donors were also recovered (Table 1) but were generally smaller, and some of them contained mild mononuclear cell infiltrates (Fig. 3F). At 30 days, two of the four RIP–CD95Lhi syngeneic grafts were rejected, presumably as a consequence of expressing CD95L.
Nontransgenic control and RIP–CD95L transgenic grafts were recovered 14 days after transplantation into allogeneic hosts (Table 1). Both kinds of donor grafts contained heavy lymphocytic infiltrates, and only 2 of 15 had a few residual β cells and pancreatic ducts (Fig. 3 H and I). At 30 days after grafting, only a scar at the graft site remained under the kidney capsule (Table 1). Transgenic and nontransgenic B6 into BALB/c allografts were thus rejected in the same way. Neither delay in graft rejection nor increase in islet graft survival was afforded by CD95L.
Testis Transplants.
Bellgrau and coworkers reported the indefinite survival of CD95L+ B6 testis tissue grafted under the kidney capsule of allogeneic (BALB/c) recipients, whereas testis tissue from CD95L− mutant (B6gld) mice was rejected within 7 days (1). In an attempt to repeat these experiments, we grafted testis tissue from BALB/c, B6, C3H/HeJ, or C3H/HeJgld donors under the kidney capsules of male BALB/c recipients. At 14 days, syngeneic grafts had viable seminiferous tubules and were free from infiltrate (Fig. 3J). After the same period, allogeneic grafts, whether from C3H/HeJ or C3H/HeJgld donors, bore heavy lymphocytic infiltrates, and all had both damaged and viable seminiferous tubules (Fig. 3 K and L). Analogous transplantation of adrenal tissue gave similar results, although only a few residual adrenal graft cells were present in allogeneic samples (data not shown).
After 28 or 36 days, syngeneic testis grafts had viable but atrophied seminiferous tubules free from infiltrate (Fig. 3M). Allogeneic graft sites were also recovered at this time, but their gross appearance was abnormal, consisting of wide, white tubules lying under the kidney capsule. Histology showed these to be calcified seminiferous tubules associated with infiltration; no viable testis tissue remained (Fig. 3 N and O, and Table 2). C3H allografts at 28 days had the same pathology as B6 allografts (data not shown). We were therefore unable to detect any difference between the rejection of normal (CD95L+) and mutant (gld, CD95L−) allogeneic testis grafts.
Historically, the testis and the eye have been considered to be immune-privileged because unmatched grafts placed into these sites are rejected more slowly than grafts placed elsewhere, such as under the kidney capsule (reviewed in ref. 3). Recent reports have shown that expression of CD95L by host cells in the eye or by syngeneic myoblasts can protect CD95L− foreign cells from immune attack (2, 17). We sought to test whether CD95L did not have to be expressed on host cells to protect foreign tissues from rejection, but would also offer protection if expressed by the graft itself as predicted by the results of Bellgrau and coworkers (1).
Our attempts to repeat the observations of Bellgrau and coworkers (1) were not successful as we found that CD95L+ or CD95L− allogeneic testis grafts developed massive lymphocytic infiltrates and lost all normal tissue architecture, with only calcified and necrotic tubules remaining by 28 days. This is in marked contrast to the observation of Bellgrau and coworkers, who reported the indefinite survival of CD95L+ allogeneic testis tissue that appeared "indistinguishable from syngeneic grafts" (1). Our findings were therefore similar to those of Statter and coworkers, who found that in both the rat and the mouse, adult allogeneic testis grafts became massively infiltrated and suffered rejection by 10 days (18, 19). We cannot account for the difference between our results and those of Bellgrau and coworkers (1).
In the pancreas of transgenic animals, CD95L provoked a granulocytic infiltrate rather than acting as an immunosuppressant. This inflammation resembled that found when baby hamster kidney cells expressing transfected CD95L were transplanted s.c. into nude mouse recipients (15). In addition, there was a remarkable absence of T or B cells in the islets, suggesting that granulocytes were specifically recruited. As ligation of CD95 on epithelial cells can induce secretion of IL-8 (16), we think it is likely that CD95L on the islet cells of the transgenic mice stimulated IL-8 secretion by neighboring CD95+ cells rather than acting on the granulocytes directly. The distribution of granulocytes in the acinar tissue of the pancreas seen in Fig. 3B could be due to a chemotactic response to a chemokine such as IL-8. As CD95L induced granulocytic infiltrates in both nude mice (15) and transgenic pancreas (Fig. 3 A and B), we do not believe T cells were involved in the induction of the granulocytic infiltrates. Backcrosses to IL-8 or IL-8 receptor-deficient mice could provide evidence for a role of this particular chemokine.
In the transgenic mice, high level expression of CD95L was detrimental to the β cells as small islets associated with fibrosis were seen in adult animals. Mice never became diabetic, however, implying either incomplete destruction or regenerative capacity of the islets. A number of mechanisms may have led to the β cell damage seen in the high expresser line, including (i) the toxic effects of overexpressed transgenes (19), (ii) the damaging effects of the granulocytic infiltrate, or (iii) the possibility that CD95 was up-regulated on transgenic islets which then killed themselves.
Islet allografts expressing CD95L were not protected from rejection. Like the nontransgenic control allografts, they were massively infiltrated with CD4+ and CD8+ T cells (data not shown). This result is not consistent with the premise of the testis grafting experiments of Bellgrau and coworkers (1), who suggested that CD95L should confer immune privilege on the tissues that express it. In fact, some CD95Lhi-expresser islet grafts failed even in syngeneic hosts (Table 1). Preliminary results in which rag-deficient mice were used as recipients of CD95L+ grafts indicate that this rejection is not mediated by T cells; nontransgenic grafts (six of six) had islets, but CD95L+ grafts (four of six) were rejected or damaged. Although granulocytes were few in these grafts, we presume it was they or some other consequence of CD95L expression that damaged the grafted transgenic tissue, just as the islets are damaged in the transgenic pancreas itself (see above). Lau and coworkers (17) found that syngeneic myoblasts expressing CD95L could protect neighboring allo-islets well enough to maintain normoglycemia in mice made diabetic with streptozotocin. Yet a similar experiment in rats showed that syngeneic, CD95L-expressing Sertoli cells could only prolong rejection of neighboring allo-islets by 9–14 days (20). This result suggests a weak immunosuppressant effect of CD95L and has only been observed when CD95L was expressed on syngeneic tissues cotransplanted with allogeneic islets.
In conclusion, we found that expression of CD95L by β cells was not sufficient to protect transgenic islet grafts from allogeneic rejection. Whether expressed by transformed (15) or nontransformed cells, CD95L acted as a proinflammatory molecule and, therefore, may contribute to rejection rather than prevent it.

Farmers Market Vegetable Medley
From the Blogger: "It's always nice when there's a farmer's market that's close by. Most large and small cities have them scattered around. Here on Long Island, there are many to choose from. Especially out east. Suffolk County where the Hamptons are located and Montauk Point. There's so many to visit. Some only open on the weekends and others are open all week. Here's a vegetable medley that's from a local farmer's market. Every veggie is from there. Of course if you don't have a local farmer's market, go to your favorite place to shop and look for the freshest fruits and veggies you can find. If you don't see what you're looking for, ask one of the people that works in the produce department. Maybe they have more in the back that just has not been put out yet. Enjoy this healthy and hearty recipe. Serve over pasta, rice or even a baked potato."

Here it is absolute proof that registration leads to confiscation. The shear fact that he registered his AR is ultimately what got it confiscated. The gun grabbing left has for the longest time denied that they are coming for your guns that was until recently and now they are acting on it! A man in San Diego California has had his AR pistols confiscated after successfully registering them on June 20, 2018. Under California's registration law certain rifles and 80% lowers had to be registered by July 1 of 2018!
Scroll down for video
The issue stem from California's ever changing gun laws, some of which is the strictest in the country, one such law which redefined an "assault weapon" and required anyone with a gun that fell under the new definition had to register it with the state. California's continually changing gun laws can be very difficult to navigate without legal help.
Building an AR pistol in California is for the most part is illegal as it is considered an off roster handgun. If you build a pistol not on that list it is considered an illegal firearm. Even with the featurless and maglock laws there really isn't a way to legally build a AR pistol in the state in accordance with the states unsafe handgun act.

Registration leads to confiscation. ———-Reposted from @west_coast_weaponworks – We need the big boys to stand up and help. 4 weeks ago a friend named Mike had his AR pistol confiscated by CA DOJ, we contacted lawyers and nothing happen, Mike never even heard back. Today my friend Brett had his AR15 pistols confiscated. Both guys followed the rules, self registered their 80% guns before the deadline and now they get them taken away. Some of you will be next. The Pro 2A organizations and CA gun lawyers need to take a stand for the average CA gun owner who is trying to follow the rules before it's too late. We need legal help to stop the DOJ @gunpolicy @calgunsdotnet @sdgunowners @calgunlawyers If you know anyone that can or should help tag them – #regrann
We will continue to update this as more information becomes available. You can view the video below
Responsible Gun Owners need to act. We need to be more politically active. We need to show up at the polls. We need to fight unconstitutional laws no matter how we feel about what they are banning because once they ban one thing they move onto the next object that triggers them and so on. Contact your state representatives. Develop counter initiatives to combat these dumbass anti gun campaigns that are based on lies and feelings instead of facts and evidence.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'BLEACH' tag.
This week's SOTW is also late. But it is a BLEACH theme, which I've been listening to recently for no real reason other than nostalgia.
So here it is.
Ending Edit:
Yeah, this is late, and I apologise. I just finished a 5 day run of evening shifts, then had a birthday right after.
Anyway, I play Bleach: Brave Souls now, and because of that I've gone back to listen to old Bleach themes. This one was pretty good, if I remember correctly.
Ending Edit:
This is late again, but that's just what happens when you have a single day off in a run of 10 or so days.
Anyway, as this is a rushed post, and since I've never blogged this before (and seriously, how have I not done anything on this yet?), I suppose I'll just leave this here and go to work.
Opening Edit
Hey, look, I did one on time.
Me? So late on an SOTW? Did something go wrong? Yes indeed it did. I was meant to return home last Sunday morning, unfortunately I only just arrived back earlier today. Long story short, I fell ill from a chest infection and had a high fever for three straight days before it started getting better. As much as I hate giving myself excuses, this one's at least a reasonable one.
Either way, I had an SOTW in mind before I was ill, when I was enjoying my holiday at Karaoke, because that's the place to be when you're in any eastern-asian country. I've actually mentioned this before all the way back in SOTW 4, when I blogged Summer Song by Yui, that this is one of the few Japanese songs I've memorised and so can sing at Karaoke even with being unable to read the Japanese lyrics. So I think it's a great song to bring to my SOTW list. Here's a fairly old song, the fifth, I believe, OP of BLEACH, Rolling Star by Yui.

Nevertheless, ClickFunnels additionally has their own effective automation device called Actionetics.

I like Actionetics because it not only changes your e-mail marketing but carrier advertising and marketing and also SMS advertising and marketing softwares too.

A video overview of Actionetics will be supplied better below.

While you could start with the Free 14-Day Test, there are 3 various pricing options with ClickFunnels:
- $ 97/month.
- $ 297/month.
- $ 997 bulk discount rate plan (advised).
I'll explain for every of these plans below.
1. ClickFunnels Requirement Strategy – $97/month.
The common plan includes all the attributes you would require within ClickFunnels, yet with restrictions on the variety of funnels (20) as well as pages (100) you could have in your account, in addition to how many site visitors (20K) could see your web pages per month.

In Actionetics – you could handle all of your get in touches with that subscribe to your list, send out e-mail programs, and create a host of various other automations. ConvertKit and Facebook
The distinction between the two plans really is the restrictions, and Actionetics/Backpack. If you are a standard user and don't expect to use more than 20 funnels in your account – the Standard Strategy need to be adequate.

ClickFunnels vs. Every person Else.
Many individuals ask just how ClickFunnels compares to various other landing web page contractors such as Leadpages, Unbounce, as well as Infusionsoft.
Essentially it's not actually a reasonable contrast because each of these devices stands out is one location or the various other.
The chart above provides a comprehensive evaluation – but I'll highlight a few of the significant comparisons below.
ClickFunnels vs Leadpages
Prior to ClickFunnels, Leadpages was the huge pet dog.
Leadpages is simply a lead capture software program – absolutely nothing even more. You could create touchdown web pages, lead boxes, accumulate leads … that's pretty much it. Additionally, the Leadpages themes are also limited on modification.
ClickFunnels is far more flexible – it's much easier to use as well as does so far more compared to develop lead capture web pages.
Put simply, Leadpages is really simply a landing web page home builder, while ClickFunnels is focused around developing extremely incorporated funnels.
ClickFunnels vs Infusionsoft
Infusionsoft is not a touchdown page or sales page home builder. It has some of that functionality developed it, however that's not just what it's known for.
At it's core, Infusionsoft is a CRM system – one that permits you to handle your entire customer data source. ClickFunnels has this capability with Actionetics, however it's not almost as progressed as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is likewise incredibly pricey and forces every brand-new client to pay $2000 for a mandatory kickstart mentoring bundle simply to discover the best ways to utilize the intricate system (which is infamously hard to make use of).
ClickFunnels Associate Program
There are two primary courses individuals drop as ClickFunnels individuals.
Those that decide to use the tool for their organisation – in hopes of someday accomplish both Comma Club (over $1M in income).
And also those that have an interest in earning easy income as a ClickFunnels Associate and winning the Desire Cars and truck Competition (where they pay $500/$1000 to your dream automobile if you get to 100/200 active month-to-month signups, specifically).
With a massive 40% regular monthly reoccuring commission, ClickFunnels quickly has among the greatest affiliate programs of any type of system around.
That's right – you get paid a recurring 40% compensation on every affiliate signup you make with the ClickFunnels Affiliate Program. However, what does that actually equate to?
The basic plan is a $97/month financial investment and the Etison Suite plan is a $297/month investment. consequently you make $38.80 each fundamental plan and also $118.80 each Etison Collection plan … each and every month!
Typically, every 100 signups will generate $4000/month in affiliate commissions (basically depending on the amount of Etison Strategy customers remain in there).

The Bottom Line
ClickFunnels is pass on the greatest system if you are planning to quickly develop high converting sales funnels.

Thinking About Outsourcing To Latin America? Here Are The Pros & Cons
- 27 Mar • 2020
Outsourcing to Latin America - what you need to know
For many companies in the US and Canada, hiring remote developers based in Latin America is a great option for keeping development lean, code quality high, and costs low. If you're considering taking the leap but still have some questions, read on for more information on the pros (and a few potential downsides) to keep in mind as you make your decision.
Let's start with the potential cons or downside
Rates aren't as low as Eastern Europe or India.
There's a reason that India and Eastern Europe are known as outsourcing hubs – their main benefit (and the deciding factor for many companies) is their low cost. There are some situations in which low rates and quick turnaround time might be your company's top priority – like urgently getting a product to market, or having a small budget to begin with and needing to develop your project in order to begin testing and validating. If you are in this situation, it could be worth looking into India or Eastern Europe as an outsourcing option. However, the adage "you get what you pay for" unfortunately can apply here. If you need something developed right the first time, it may be worth investing a bit more in a nearshore option to ensure high code quality and less back-and-forth.
You may need to wait a bit longer to find the right fit for your development needs.
As opposed to some other offshore outsourcing locations, Latin America tends not to have massive "coding factories" where you show up with your project and are matched with the first available developer(s), no matter how good (or bad) a fit for your project they may be. Many firms in Latin America take the time to pair you with the right developers for what you're looking for, taking into account cultural and work fit as well as technical fit, so you may need to wait a bit longer to get your project started.
While rate and quick turnaround time may be top priority for some companies, if you have the flexibility to find the best fit for your team and project needs, and if you need your project developed right the first time, it may be worth looking into Latin America for your development needs.
Let's look at the pros or upside
High-quality code at reasonable prices.
Latin America has established itself as a hub for programming in recent years, and Latin American devs closely follow coding standards and best practices used by North American companies. This means that you can expect the same high-quality code that you'd get when hiring a local developer in the US or Canada, but at far lower rates.
Timezone overlap with the US and Canada.
Naturally, one of the biggest potential issues working with remote developers is the potential for late-night calls or work being delayed by up to a day due to fragmented communication and no overlap in working hours. When working with developers in Latin America, this is a non-issue, as Latin America spans all US timezones. This means you can work (virtually) alongside your development team, if desired, resulting in a closer working relationship and quicker results and troubleshooting.
Cultural and work culture fit.
Latin America is steeped in North American culture, both from a popular culture standpoint and also from a work standpoint. This means that much of the top development talent in Latin America already has experience working with international clients, many of which are in the US and Canada, giving them crucial experience working in a North American environment. Similarly, there is cultural overlap between the two, meaning that developers from Latin America can more readily integrate into North American teams, ensuring a smooth working relationship that may be difficult to find in other outsourcing hubs.

In this post, I offer some suggested readings that I find help inform my approach to teaching. The books are listed in no particular order.
For any teacher, I recommend:
- What Works in Schools? Robert J. Marzano, Debra J. Pickering, and Jane E. Pollock. (Note that there is now a second edition available with a substantially different organization. Either edition is valuable.) This book (first edition) discusses nine strategies shown by research to be effective in improving student learning outcomes. Sometimes the strategies are "obvious," but it can still be helpful to be reminded that they are important teaching tools. For instance, summarizing and note-taking are effective. However, for me, many of my students have never been taught how to take notes, or have never discussed strategies for taking notes. So I make an effort to tell students when someone states an idea that I think everyone should write down, and I set aside some time for students to discuss what they should write down during class. Other strategies take a more concerted and planned effort to implement. For instance, generating and testing hypotheses is another strategy. While this is a natural part of doing mathematics, this reminds me to include tasks in which students do more investigative work. More than a list of nine ideas, the book has specific recommendations that are helpful. For instance, what are some important features to make cooperative learning successful? These are the kinds of specifics that are discussed in the book.
- Why Don't Students Like School? Daniel Willingham. Willingham is a cognitive psychologist who poses some key questions and answers them from the perspective of his discipline. There are a few things that I like about this book, and that make me go back to it. One of the things I like is that each chapter closes with implications for the classroom. For example, one chapter discusses our human tendency to prefer and make sense of things as stories. In a course like precalculus, this might be used to frame "telling the story of a function," where a function has properties like limits as x goes to infinity, asymptotes, periodic behavior (or not), symmetry, and so on. In calculus or analysis, the story idea might be put in terms of the central "conflict," will a sequence converge or not, or another, is a function continuous or not. Rereading (or skimming) this book and thinking about the implications often inspires me to find ways to improve my day-to-day plans.
- What's the Point of School? Guy Claxton. Claxton describes what he believes are the core goals of an education. These are big-picture concepts like developing people who are curious and are lifelong learners. While this is not a book that I return to for help in thinking through the details of teaching, I find that it helps to remind me of what is really important in my role as an educator.
- Switch. Chip and Dan Heath. This book inspired the name of my blog. The Heaths describe how to make a switch—a change—either in yourself or others. The single most important idea is that a lot of what we do is driven by emotion, and so we need to think in those terms when looking to effect change. The authors go through several ways of activating the emotions that will enable a switch to happen. I have returned to the book many times, for example, to remind me of how to approach students who are struggling, to help them find the emotion that will drive them to turn around their performance in my classes.
- Understanding By Design. Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe. This is a book that puts forth a framework for thinking about curriculum design by starting with the end results, then thinking about how those results will be measured, and only then moving into designing the learning activities that will produce the desired end results. I return to this book from time to time to remind myself of how to frame my goals, and how to find ways to measure progress towards those goals.
- Mindset. Carol Dweck. Dweck has done significant research into the power of having a growth mindset, a mindset in which one believes that through hard work, one can get smarter or better. In the book, she describes some of this research and how it can make a difference across different domains of school and life. The book helps to remind me of why a growth mindset matters, and serves up examples that I use in explaining the power of the growth mindset to students.
For math teachers at any level, I recommend:
What's Math Got To Do With It? Jo Boaler. Boaler has studied high school students experiencing problem-based curricula and compared them with those in traditional curricula in two different countries, the US and the UK. This book describes some of what was learned in those settings, and distills for a general audience—including parents of schoolchildren—some of the key ideas of what mathematics learning is, or should be, about. From the perspective of a math teacher, this book is less likely to offer ideas for day-to-day decisions, but like Claxton's book, helps to remind me of the goals of teaching mathematics.
For college teachers, I recommend:
What the Best College Teachers Do. Ken Bain. Bain's book centers how the select group of highly-respected teachers he studied approach teaching, from preparing for class, to setting expectations for students, to conducting class, and so forth. Each chapter holds a wealth of good advice, like seeking the commitment of the students: asking them to consider whether they are willing to do what it takes to succeed in the class, and therefore have them commit to the effort required. I find I sometimes return to the questions he poses in the chapters as a way of gaining a fresh perspective on my courses.
Finally, for college math teachers, I recommend:
The Moore Method: A Pathway To Learner-Centered Instruction. Charles A. Coppin, W. Ted Mahavier, E. Lee May, and G. Edgar Parker. The four authors of this text each describe how to implement the Moore method, as they see it. The book offers the reader a chance to consider various aspects of teaching in a learner-centered environment, and benefits from the approach of the authors, which is essentially to offer their individual responses to the key questions in setting up and operating a Moore Method course. This variations-on-a-theme approach has the effect of providing the reader with a canvas and a palette, rather than promoting a specific paint-by-number prescription. The authors take on a wide variety of issues associated with implementing the Moore method, including such topics as, What if no one has anything to present? How do I grade? and many others. I have returned to the book many times to seek out new ideas of how to handle syllabus construction, or to remind myself of ways to approach managing an IBL classroom. (In full disclosure, I should mention that I am personally acquainted with the authors, and have worked closely with Ed Parker.)
What are some of your favorite or most inspiring reads from the educational realm?
