The sponsor for the TeenTech Environment and Energy Award will be announced shortly. There will be lots of information coming soon but in the meantime here are some guidelines:
Problems such as global warming and diminishing natural resources demand action from all of us. How are we going to ensure we have enough energy for generations to come? What differences can you make to the way you use energy, how is it generated, transmitted and consumed?
As students, you have the creativity and education needed to solve the environmental issues of today and of the future. After all, YOU are the ones who will be most affected.
For instance, many of us enjoy music festivals but what would you do to green the industry? Take a look at the number of tents abandoned after the 2018 Reading Festival here
- What can we do to recycle more and cause less waste?
- How can we provide clean water to parts of our planet that need it the most?
- What can each of us do to prevent climate change, and protect endangered species, our oceans and the rainforests?
- How is energy generated today?
- Who uses energy and why?
- How does energy production impact the environment?
- How does energy affect you?
City, urban and rural areas have different and interconnected issues.
There is a lot to consider in this category!
Here are some interesting websites to help you generate ideas:

Crossing a road is pretty easy, but only if you do it right. If you try to cross a busy highway, in fog, at night, wearing dark clothes, blindfolded, drunk and walking on your hands, you can make something that is basically pretty easy into something extremely difficult. And so it is with quitting smoking.
Smokers believe that quitting is hard for a couple of reasons: firstly, everyone tells them it is. Smokers are bombarded with messages from other smokers, drug companies and quit smoking 'experts' (many of whom have never smoked a cigarette in their lives) that smoking is 'harder to quit than heroin'. I've never been a heroin addict, but I'm guessing that quitting the stuff is no picnic. Who could think of a worse mindset with which to approach a problem?
Secondly, throughout their smoking lives smokers have been told that smoking helps them relax, cope with stress, concentrate, keep them thin and so on. Any smoker who believes these things will retain a desire to smoke in those situations, and will need to use willpower to try to overcome that desire. This creates a conflict; part of them wants to quit, but part still wants to smoke and it is this conflict – not physical withdrawal from nicotine – that creates the symptoms of fear, panic, anxiety and irritability that so many smokers associate with quitting.
Thirdly, smokers are seriously misinformed about nicotine – in particular about how addictive it is and bad withdrawal is.
But despite these horror stories, every so often you come across one of those people that say: "Nah. Quitting smoking was easy." I am one of those people and I want to share my experience with you.
I started smoking as a nine year-old and for the next twenty-six years never went a day without smoking. By the time I quit I was smoking 40-60 cigarettes a day. I tried to quit smoking many times over many years. I tried the patch, the gum, hypnosis, acupuncture, laser therapy, cold turkey, herbal treatments, homeopathic remedies – you name it, I tried it. I never made it to a single day smoke-free using these methods for the reasons I have already explained above: My expectation was that quitting would be difficult and unpleasant, that I would feel deprived of my pleasure or crutch, and that physical withdrawal was brutal.
As soon as I was able to change these beliefs, it was ridiculously easy to quit.
First, I decided to stop listening to people who found it difficult to quit and start listening to people who had found it easy. There are a surprisingly large number of such people.
Second, I learned how to challenge the beliefs that created the desire to smoke. If smoking relieved stress then why was I so stressed? If the cigarette was an appetite suppressant then why was I 60 lbs overweight as a smoker? If the cigarette aided concentration why weren't smokers smarter than non-smokers? If the cigarette aids relaxation why aren't chain smokers the most relaxed people on the planet? By challenging these beliefs I was able to realize that actually there was nothing to give up, apart from illusions I had acquired as a smoker – most of them as a very young smoker.

Watch out Merck: Heron snagged FDA approval on Emend competitor
San Diego's Heron Therapeutics $HRTX has won FDA approval for Cinvanti to prevent nausea and vomiting for patients on chemo. The drug will directly compete with Merck's Emend, as it has bioequivalence — potentially sans the side effects.
Physicians and patients may prefer Heron's new drug over Emend, since it's free of polysorbet 80, which is known for inducing allergic reactions, coughing up blood, irregular heartbeat and fainting.
Cinvanti is the second anti-nausea drug in Heron's product portfolio, with Sustol approved last August for the same indication. The approval should beef up Heron's revenue, which totaled $20.7 million by the end of Q3 this year.
Emend brought in $549 million for Merck last year.
Barry Quart, CEO of Heron, said he expects to launch Cinvanti in January 2018.
"To obtain FDA approval for a second product in just over a year is a significant achievement for Heron, and we remain on-track with our third important product, HTX-011, which we expect to file for FDA review in 2018," Quart said in a statement.
HTX-011 is in Phase III trials for the prevention of post-operative pain.

The researchers' findings on how this may have come about in nature could also lead to the production of better pharmaceuticals, and were published in this week's edition of Nature Chemistry.
"Pharmaceuticals are a 300 billion dollar industry, and rely on the ability to make one enantiomer in a drug, not a mixture of both," said Andrew Gellman, the principle investigator of the study from the Department of Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon. "If you make a drug that has both enantiomers and ingest it, one of them might be therapeutic, but the other probably isn't. In fact it could be highly toxic."
Enantiomers, commonly termed "left-" or "right-handed," are molecules that are mirror images of each other, but they are not exact replicas and thus take on different properties when ingested by people or living organisms. When amino acids or pharmaceuticals are synthesized in laboratories, both enantiomers are produced and it is exceedingly difficult to separate the two.
But in this study, researchers were able to successfully produce a highly-purified mixture of "left-handed" enantiomers by reacting a gas consisting of slightly more "left-handed" enantiomers than "right-handed" ones with the surface of a piece of copper. This small initial imbalance was amplified after interacting with the copper surface, in spite of the fact that this copper surface is not "handed."
"You could do this in a distillation-like process to make a substance more and more exclusively one-handed," Gellman said. "This could be very useful for the pharmaceutical industry. But it also helps explain how the 'primordial soup' in which life began went in the direction of one-handedness."
Gellman co-authored the study with Yongju Yun, who earned a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon and is now a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Berkeley.

Suspect behind casino bomb wanted
Banateay Meanchey provincial police are on the lookout for those behind the planting of a time bomb in a restroom at the Golden Crown Casino in Poipet town on Sunday night.
Poipet town police chief Thin Sindeth told The Post on Monday that the homemade device was found in a restroom by a casino patron, who brought it to a security guard.
The guard placed the bomb on a sewer cover in front of the casino and called the police, who requested assistance from the Cambodian Mine Action Centre (CMAC), Sindeth said.
"CMAC experts came and destroyed the explosive device at night. Nobody was injured in the operation," he said.
Sindeth said police had launched an investigation to find who had planted the bomb.
Sam Vireak, head of Banteay Meanchey CMAC, told The Post the bomb was homemade and set to go off at a certain time.
The bomb exploded powerfully when detonated, he said. CMAC is in the process of ascertaining what the bomb was made of.
"We collected samples of the explosive materials to find what was used to make the bomb," he said.
A Poipet town police official who requested anonymity said the Cambodian national who found the bomb was called in for questioning on Monday as part of the investigation.

SPTE Buyer Testimonial
"I am attending SPTE in order to get a good insight into product news and new products from the South Pacific region. I am very supportive of one event representing the whole region. The combination with ATE works perfectly for me as a European buyer, taking into account the travel distances from Europe".– Sebastian Martens (FTI Touristik)
It was a great to experience SPTE17 in Sydney for the first time and hope I will attend many more. Meeting with the suppliers of Tourism, Hoteliers and Cruise products in Fiji and the South Pacific Islands that Fiji Airways services was very helpful in gaining knowledge to better promote Fiji and beyond in the Canadian market. I look forward to working more closely with all of the suppliers that I met with in 2017 and look forward to Adelaide in 2018! – Coral Perry, Area Sales Manager (Fiji Airways, Canada)
It was really good to be do SPTE straight after ATE. Same city and location of the venue which made it very efficient for me. Something that I think is very important for all the buyers that travel from a long haul destination.
The SPTE show was very well organized. From the early phases with the Marcom ACE system to the day of event. The appointment time was good and breaks between the meetings had enough time (almost too long breaks).
Well done SPTO! – NICOLAS PETERSSON, Product Manager (Tour Pacific Scandinavia AB)

"This is what I live for, so bring it. This is how I write my act." – Kathy Griffin answers Elisabeth Hasselbeck's question on whether the redhead worries about being a guest on "The View" after saying things about the show that are "a) untrue and b) not so funny." Of course, comedy is subjective and usually the targets are not laughing.
"This is what I live for, so bring it.

Of course, comedy is subjective and usually the targets are not laughing.
With LA Pride 2010 a thing of the past, I zipped back to Boston – a little hoarse, a little congested, but mighty happy. And proud. For the 40th anniversary of LA Pride, our celebrity grand marshalls were Sharon and Kelly Osbourne – certainly no one could argue their support of our community. The Osbournes even got the chance to show how passionate they are about gay rights. Shortly after the parade started, they were heckled by some homophobic twits with some anti-gay signs. Happily, someone made sure that the Osbourne float was equipped with a microphone and sound system. Sharon burst into action and berated the bullies, screaming "You should all be ashamed of yourselves!" Kelly took offense to one picket sign by saying, "My God loves gays!" Then Sharon got the crowd of supporters to chant "God loves gays" over and over. The nasties departed and the Osbournes enjoyed the rest of the day – reminding us all why we love them.
Sexy Ronnie Kroell from the current print edition of "Playgirl" was at the parade and later came by to see me hosting the main stage. He wanted to thank me for publicizing his modeling gig – and his pledge to give a portion of all money he makes from selling autographed copies to local gay charities. I was delighted that he brought a special copy for moi, but even more excited when someone slipped me a special something that I'll share with you in a future column. Let's just say it will prove conclusively whether or not Ronnie's dick was Photoshopped!
While all this was going on in LA, the Tony Awards were happening in NYC – not that anyone was watching. Every year, the question is not "How were the ratings for the Tonys?" it's "How low were the ratings for the Tonys?" Ratings were down eight percent from last year. It could have been worse (in fact it was – the ratings this year did beat the record lows in 2008). Sean Hayes managed to keep the show moving without any disasters. Kudos to our own Levi Kreis for his win. Three years earlier he appeared at LA Pride. Now he's got a Tony…and I'm still hosting pride festivals. Sigh…
Combining a bit of skin with theatre, Tony presenter Paula Abdul (huh?) took in the Broadway revival of "Hair." Why? Because it stars "American Idol" alums Ace Young and Diana DeGarmo (the show closes on June 27th). Since the cast traditionally brings members of the audience onstage during the finale, it wasn't surprising for Paula to be up dancing without much coaxing. And this gives us the perfect opportunity to respond to the numerous e-mails I've received asking if Ace does the nude scene. Come on – do you honestly think Ace Young would pass up an opportunity to be naked? When he first joined the cast, he told everyone how "freeing" he found the nudity. My spies tell me that not only is he free, he's also hung – so hung that he's actually swinging during the finale to the first act! Although no full-frontal footage of the abs-olutely fabulous Ace has materialized, we have a number of shots of his delectable torso and his ass. Oh, yes – that ass is something to behold. Those pics will be posted on BillyMasters.com. You might want to keep checking back – never know when something will pop up!
Recently, Ricky Martin was on the cover of the Father's Day issue of "People en Español." In the interview, he confirms being in a relationship. The lucky guy is someone Martin knew from his childhood in Puerto Rico, but reconnected with last year in Miami. Ricky was also honored at the AmFAR Inspiration Gala. The event at the New York Public Library was hosted by Kylie Minogue and included entertainment by Cyndi Lauper, Kelly Rowland and Estelle. There were also a gaggle of semi-clothed male models, which made Estelle gasp, "I didn't know you could get so many abs on a body."
By the way, one of Ricky's Menudo co-stars is in the news. Angelo Garcia decided the time was right to also come out of the closet. The skinny little singer is now a hulking, imposing SF-based bodybuilder who has timed his coming out with a nude photo session…and who could blame him? You can see more of him at BillyMasters.com
Lastly, a teen heartthrob was just outed as a lesbian! Last week, there were numerous sightings of Justin Bieber drinking in an Ocean City, Maryland bar. This got people into a tizzy – including one person who called the police to report the 16-year-old was indulging in underage imbibing! The cops showed up only to find the Bieber was actually a 27-year-old woman! When questioned, Katie (who is referred to in all of the stories as a lesbian) laughed saying, "This happens all the time." Turns out Justin is in the Bahamas with Kim Kardashian. What do you think the chances are that alcohol isn't involved? Or that a lesbian would be able to show Kim a better time?
When Kathy Griffin pissing off a conservative is news, it's definitely time to end yet another column. This was a super-sized column, which means our print outlets will only be able to run about half the dish. If you want the full-length version, be sure to check out BillyMasters.com to read every last word for free each and every week. I'm now jetting off to yet another undisclosed Eastern European country for adventures that I'm sure will find their way into future columns. But no matter where I am, I'm only just an e-mail away. Send your questions to firstname.lastname@example.com and I promise to get back to you before we get reports of Bieber Fever in Kardashian's beaver (which I believe can be cured with a combination of Vagisil and Kwell – the guys can swap out the Vagisil for ID Lube)! So, until next time, remember, one man's filth is another man's bible.

Fair deal? Men cornered, women to rule the roost at grassroots
It's a win-win situation for the fairer sex in Himachal Pradesh at the end of polls to Panchayati Raj Institutions. With 50% seats for women reserved in PRIs for the first time, roughly 58-60% women have won seats in the state, marginalizing the men significantly. Archana Phull reports.india Updated: Jan 05, 2011 20:44 IST
It's a win-win situation for the fairer sex in Himachal Pradesh at the end of polls to Panchayati Raj Institutions. With 50% seats for women reserved in PRIs for the first time, roughly 58-60% women have won seats in the state, marginalizing the men significantly.
In last elections, when 33% seats were reserved for women, the number of elected women had gone upto 38 to 40%.
The State Election Commission (SEC) is in still in the midst of compiling details.
"But it's sure that the number of women elected representatives is higher than the mark of 50," said S C Negi, secretary of SEC.
Inquiries in different districts revealed so.
The state conducted elections to 3195 seats of panchayat presidents, 3195 vice presidents, 19195 ward members, 1651 block development committee members, and 240 zila parishad members last week.
The polls to 14 panchayats in Kinnaur could be conducted on Wednesday due to heavy snow last week.
"Women presence in PRIs will not be less than 60% this time. In case of bodies having higher odd number of wards, the number of reserved seats for women was determined by rounding off on the higher side. This took the number of reserved seats beyond 50%," deputy commissioner, Kangra, R S Gupta told Hindustan Times.
Kullu deputy commissioner, B M Nanta said, "At the time of reservation, it came out to be 58%. The final figure is yet to be arrived."
In Mandi, the reservation went up to 55%.
Some women in the state have made it through open seats too which will take the number of women representatives in PRIs higher.
While this comes as an opportunity for the BJP government in Himachal to take credit, as it was the first government in country to do it in 2008 (immediately as BJP took over reigns this time). The opposition Congress too is welcoming the scenario of "women dominance' in PRIs.
"It will be a training ground for women in the run up to proposed 33% reservation in Vidhan Sabha and Lok Sabha for them," state Congress chief Kaul Singh Thakur said.
"It's a big step towards women empowerment. But it beings greater responsibility on women at the same time. They will have to have grasp of things and perform at the grassroots," Reena, 23, a first timer in zila parishad said.
She is final year student of law in Himachal Pradesh University, and was elected from Anandpur ward in Shimla district.
To Reena awareness about domestic violence, health issues and information on government schemes for people are the top priorities.
The women majority in PRIs has been generally liked by people, and cross section of the men, who have made it to PRIs, but not without apprehensions.
"Women can certainly address issues at grassroots with greater sensitivity. But at the same time PRIs have now assumed a significant role in governance. Women generally can't spare more time from their house chores for this responsibility and they don't have knowledge of procedures and schemes. This part should be seriously taken care of at the onset and trainings should be organised," said Akshay Jasrotia, who was re-elected to zila parishad from Paprola in Kangra district.
Jasrotia, 38, was a student of economics at Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi earlier, but left academics to champion the cause of grassroot politics back home.
But is it a crisis of sorts with women making it to PRIs in such great numbers?
"We have had a good experience with the women representatives, when the reservation was
33% for them. There is no reason for apprehension. The elected representatives get a training first, that builds up their capacities, to begin with," said R S Gupta, Kangra DC.
Reservation was similar for elections to urban local bodies in HP (that ended on Saturday) but their numbers are not high enough to make an impact, as compared to the PRIs.

Is That Home Still Available?
We understand that most home buyers use the Internet for their home search. That being said, you need to realize that many sites out there offer information that is not very accurate. I can't tell you how many times I've had clients ask about a home that was already under contract or even sold.
That's why we recommend that our clients allow us to create a personal home search for them. We will take your specific parameters and have updated information sent to you through our MLS ( Multiple Listing Service ), the most current database available.
You will be sent an email of homes as they either come on the market, or have a status chance, like a price reduction.
Here is what your personal home search will look like:
It is simple to view photos here and easy to navigate. You can even categorize the homes as your "favorites", or "rejects". It is also a good way to communicate with us as we can see which homes you like. It even allows us to post comments about the homes to each other.
So if you are looking to buy a home and want the most accurate information around, give us a call and we'll set you up on your own search.

Migraine sufferers could have access to some "exciting" new targeted therapies by mid next year, says an Australian neurologist.
Headache and migraine affects an estimated five million people.
Unfortunately, there isn't "very good" pharmaceutical treatments at present for chronic migraine - a complex neurological syndrome - that causes "nasty" and "invisible" suffering, says Professor Tissa Wijeratne, chair of the Department of Neurology at Western Health in Melbourne.
Having recently attended the 18th Congress of the International Headache Society, Prof Wijeratne says there is a lot of hope and promise for better therapies.
"There is a lot of exciting treatments that are going to be available at our doorstep very soon," Prof Wijeratne told AAP.
"None of the medications that we have thus far have actually been designed to act against migraine. They are either anti-epileptic drugs or drugs that were manufactured to treat depression or blood pressure.
"But in the last couple of years clinical trials have come out which will help us to have a bunch of medications to treat migraine which are actually designed for migraine. For the first time we will have some medications that were actually designed to treat migraine."
One of the new medication targets a small peptide - known as calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) - which has been heavily associated with the origins of migraine, Prof Wijeratne says.
The new class of precisely-engineered migraine preventive drugs have been cleared for the final phase of clinical trials.
Migraine is more than just a "big headache". People with migraines can lose their vision and even lose function of their arms and legs.
Symptoms during a migraine attack include pain on one side or both sides of the head, sensitivity to light and sounds, nausea, blurred vision and light-headedness.
It is possible, however, to live well with migraine without medication, says Prof Wijeratne.
He says keeping hydrated is vital.
"We must drink about three litres of water every day," he said.
His other tips to avoid migraine include getting proper sleep, staying physically active, eating a healthy diet and keeping the mind silent.

This is not an encyclopedia article. If you find this page on any site other than Wikipedia, you are viewing a mirror site. Be aware that the page may be outdated and that the user whom this page is about may have no personal affiliation with any site other than Wikipedia itself. The original page is located at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Eluchil404.
I aspire to be a wikignome but also make some contributions in my areas of interest, including those mentioned below. I am a fairly frequent participant in deletion discussions of various kinds but try to limit my comments to when they will be helpful. After all Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet.[1]
I began editing Wikipedia in late 2005 first from IP's such as 188.8.131.52 and then registered an account on March 2nd, 2006 in order to create the article Keynes (disambiguation). Prior to 2006 unregistered users could create articles. I became an administrator on August 8th, 2007 after my second request for adminship. Since then I have worked largely at AfD and DRV closing deletion discussions and opining when I think I have something important to say.
Most of my direct contributions to the encyclopedia have been wikignoming, fixing typos, replacing internal links to the wrong page, and miscellaneous clean-up. I have however written a few articled from scratch: Patrick Flores, Mark Johnson (producer), Vatta's War, etc. I have also moved around content so that it is organized better and created redirects, especially from titles that seemed logical to me. Minor stuff, but I believe that overall I have been a net positive.
As part of my interest in deletion discussions, I have sometimes commented on the various notability guidelines that we have. Especially Wikipedia:Notability (films) of which I wrote the first draft. Others have vastly rewritten it, much to its improvement, but I am gratified that they have seen value in my proposal.
I believe that Wikipedia is just beginning, and that it has a prosperous future ahead of it. All we have to do is keep working. Sometimes outside disputes or disruptive editors can get in the way, but overall we are still on the right track. Our explosive early growth has slowed and a renewed focus on recruiting and retaining quality editors is necessary. Nevertheless, I am convinced that the best is yet to come. Certainly, nothing that is required is more difficult or unlikely than a bunch of random people getting together and writing the world's most popular encyclopedia.

I stopped doing weekly reports at some point, for a very simple reason: I had few to report, except maybe my frustration that I couldn't find the bugs in my OHCI driver that prevented some (but not all) devices from working.
So I spent the last weeks tracking down these issues and reading specs and more specs. Both OHCI and xHCI – the latter because it's part two of my project, and because I was close to giving up OHCI for now and working on xHCI first. It's an independent task, so that could have been done easily.
Today, I managed to hunt down the bug. It was a simple fix once I found out what's up. While this uncovered more problems, I can move forward again.
To prevent me from hanging 4 weeks on the next bug, I'll start on xHCI nonetheless, while doing OHCI on the sideline. Most of OHCI is done, and I guess I can start pushing code upstream soon – just one feature (interrupt transfers, so keyboards work) and a couple of cleanups are missing.

Office Dog / Wellington / Wellington
DNA is an equal opportunity workplace – and whilst Agatha and Albert have the same role – Official office dogs – both bring a unique sense of skill, flair and personality to the day job(s). They do bring into focus just what matters to our everyday.
Albert spends a fair bit of time distracting the troops (and visitors) in Wellington. He is still at the annoying stage, meaning he'll chew anything, and he definitely needs a bit more training in all things.
Albert is naturally pretty chilled, which tends to rub off on all who meet him.
Both dogs are working on their French, which all goes to make the contingent of Gallic staff across DNA feel right at home.
Out of the workplace, you will find Albert chewing furniture, expensive shoes and when all else fails – a stick.

By Sherrie Locke, written on 3 Qanil, February 2014
A respected Native American elder told me this story in the form of a poem, and these were his words:
"Once upon a time there was innocence, harmony and oneness between brothers.
Then came a being from somewhere beyond this place.
A being that did not love the happiness of man.
It gave that being nothing.
So he went to a place,
A primordial place,
The first place of response,
and found something.
He found survival instinct,
He found fear.
So he devised a way
that each and every human
at some point
would respond to this energy.
At that juncture, he found an entry point
through the medulla, the lizard brain, the place of fight or flight response,
and attached
to feed on what he is."
So people, this is a story, a metaphor. As this respected elder explained it to me, the first fear hits in childhood, then the being attaches itself and feeds off your fears for the rest of your life unless you find a way, or a shaman, to reset the assemblage point (I will discuss this in a future post on The Human Assemblage Point) with tools and consciousness to (hopefully, if diligent) not let it entangle you again. Only then you will be free to live your true life, not the life of fear and heartbreak that the ego feeds upon.
It goes like this: when the first fear strikes, usually between the age of three to five, He (I use "he" because I am describing a yang force) attaches himself to a person and runs that original "fear program" over and over in myriad ways throughout the person's life. Always in a theme or "plot twist" of the original cause.
He tortures, he holds one back, he is a predator lying in wait to sabotage your dreams and aspirations, to screw up your life, and he holds all the information you have ever taken in. Not an outside force but from within.
He is the predator within.
He's a crazy coyote program with self-replicating bio-programming abilities that makes you think he is you.
Nowadays they call it the Ego. Find it, split from it, watch what it does and become master over it.
That is all. Good Luck!

A pocket flashlight is compact, and for some uses, that is what matters most. Unfortunately, there are several pocket flashlights in the market to pick from; with many of them offering a less than ideal use experience with their poor quality light, unreliability, poor battery life, and a host of other issues.
So, if you want a flashlight that you will truly appreciate, a little digging is worthwhile. Fortunately, you don't have to – below is a breakdown of the best pocket flashlights in the market today; have a look at what they have to offer before you make your purchase.
Best Pocket Flashlights – Reviews
10Super Bright LED Mini Aluminum Flashlight with Lanyard
Besides being compact, this flashlight is also very durable, which makes it incredibly versatile as well. The aluminum body makes the light much stronger, and that makes it more suitable for the great outdoors.
In addition to all this, the light is very easy to use, and it provides a very strong light despite its small size. You will need 3 AAA batteries with this light; and your purchase will include a 3-month money back guarantee and a reassuring 100 percent satisfaction guarantee.
9Coast HP1 Focusing 190 Lumen LED Flashlight
The beam emitted by this small LED flashlight can be used for distances of up to 171 meters (560 feet). This is incredible considering that the flashlight can produce a light this intense for 1 and 15 minutes when using a Li-ion battery. The flashlight will also provide a focusing system, based on a sliding focus feature.
The device is also water-resistant, and its aluminum casing and light weight makes it quite versatile. It can also resist many things including rust and corrosion. This flashlight is also versatile in that you can use both a AA alkaline NiMH rechargeable battery and lithium batteries.
8Hausbell Ultra Bright Mini LED Flashlight Tactical Flashlight (2 Pack)
With 300 lumens, this is a truly powerful flashlight. And even if you need something dimmer based on your usage needs, you don't have to get a more modest alternative – this flashlight has adjustment options that will dim the brightness level with ease.
Through the zoom feature, you can also widen and narrow the beam as needed. Water resistance is also one of the great features this flashlight has, which makes it suited to every kind of outdoors adventure, including hiking, cycling, camping and so forth.
7Outlite A100 High Powered Handheld Flashlight
You can use a rechargeable lithium-ion battery (18650) or AAA batteries when using with this flashlight. The light also stands out for the fact that it has a selection of 5 brightness modes – high brightness, medium brightness, low brightness, strobe light and SOS light.
You can also adjust its focus, and see distances of up to 600 feet. The durability of this flashlight is also quite good, as the aluminum used in its construction can stand up to extreme temperatures, shock, and even exposure to moisture.
6OxyLED OxyWild MD50 Super Bright LED Flashlight
For a truly water-resistant use experience, few alternatives can offer you what this pocket flashlight has. It has an IPX-6 rating in this regard, and that means it will even work in heavy rain. And despite its rugged design, this flashlight's coating is non-abrasive, which makes it more comfortable even under potentially bruising use conditions.
Otherwise, the aluminum alloy used to make this flashlight is toughened, anodized, and uniquely constructed to make this flashlight very durable. Another plus to using this flashlight is that it has five light modes, including a strobe and an SOS setting.
5LE Cree LED Adjustable Focus Mini Tactical Flashlight Torch
You can get brightness of up to 140 lumens with this light. That makes this pocket flashlight well-suited to long range lighting needs, although it can be used as a flood light in case you need to light up a large area.
The ergonomics on this compact flashlight are also commendable. For one, the design is skid-proof, and the light comes with a lanyard for an easier use experience. Moreover, the flashlight is highly affordable, which makes an ideal choice for value buyers.
4PeakPlus Super Bright LED Tactical Flashlight
Regardless of its compact size, this flashlight has more brightness than many larger product versions. Still, it offers other amazing benefits including a water-resistant cover that is also ergonomically designed to be anti-abrasive, skid proof, and very comfortable to hold.
This tough flashlight is therefore suitable for hunting, camping, hiking, fishing, and the other outdoor activities. The device is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, but you also have the option of using three AAA battery. Finally, it offers three brightness levels in addition to a strobe and an SOS feature.
3Streamlight ProTac 350 Lumen Professional Tactical Flashlight
Even among the more amply-sized flashlights, an output of 350 lumens is rare. And yet, for this pocket sized flashlight measuring just 4.25 inches and weighing a mere 4.8 ounces, this is a reality. When on this brightness setting, the flashlight can run for 1.5 hours.
Other brightness levels are the 150 lumens brightness level and the 40 lumens option. The flashlight can also produce a beam that can be effective within distances of 160 meters. The flashlight is made using sturdy, durable, and reliable anodized aluminum, which makes it perfectly capable of standing up to the rough outdoors.
2J5 Tactical V1-PRO 300 Lumen Ultra Bright Flashlight
At its best, this flashlight can generate 300 lumens; which is more than adequate for most uses. This light beam can light up distances of up to 600 feet. Furthermore, in addition to high and low brightness settings, this flashlight has an intelligent brightness feature as well as a strobe mode.
And because of its toughness, the flashlight can be used for hunting, camping and other activities. In fact, you will get a full satisfaction guarantee with your purchase, which means if you are not happy with what you get, you can always take it back for a full refund. For convenience, the flashlight can use both an AA battery or a 14500 rechargeable battery.
1UltraFire 7W 300 Lumens Mini Cree LED Flashlight
With just 7W of power, this flashlight can generate 300 lumens of light. It comes with a zoom feature that makes it fill the role of a flashlight and that of a torch as well.

In Hollywood, the term overnight sensation is typically an over-exaggerated definition of a suddenly famous celebrity, but for 13-year-old Marsai Martin, this shooting star is already on course to be a whirlwind sensation. Born in Plano, Texas, Marsai began acting before she could talk. At the age of five, she landed her first national commercial with the agency, appearing in The Choice Hotel ad "Voice of the People."
Marsai relocated to Los Angeles in 2013, and, in a little more than 100 days, secured a major national commercial campaign with Meineke. That meteoric whirlwind also included being cast as the co-star in a number one network comedy. Marsai plays Diane Johnson on the ABC Emmy-nominated hit comedy "black-ish." Alongside an all-star cast including Anthony Anderson, Tracee Ellis Ross and Laurence Fishburne, the young starlet has stolen the hearts of viewers who tune in every week to see her mischievous antics on the show. Her work on the award-winning show has earned her two NAACP Image Awards in the categories of Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series and Young Artists Award for Best Performance in a TV Series, Supporting Young Actress, and a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series.
Marsai recently performed in the 35th Anniversary Celebration of the Tony Award-winning Musical "Dreamgirls" with the original stars (Sheryl Lee Ralph, Loretta Devine and Jennifer Holliday), singing the hit song "Move." Additionally during her break from "black-ish," Marsai worked on the films "How to Die Happy" with Meagan Good, and "Fun Mom Dinner," with Adam Scott, Katie Aselton, Toni Collette and Adam Levine. In 2016 she starred in Amazon's "An American Girl Story – Melody 1963: Love Has to Win," set in Detroit during the Civil Rights Movement. Marsai not only pitched and executive produced, but stars in Universal's comedy "Little," set for wide release in 2019.
With opportunities presenting themselves daily, Marsai is excited about what's to come, including her newest endeavor, Genius Productions, her very own production company. When asked what she wants to do when she grows up, her answer is simply, "To be a legend." In addition to acting, she loves producing, singing, dancing and creating her own content for social media.
Marsai studied at the Cathyrn Sullivan Acting for Film.

Am I A Candidate For Teeth In One Day Dental Implants?
Many people wonder whether they are a suitable candidate for dental implants, and what the prerequisites are for the treatment, which can replace damaged and missing teeth; ranging from a single tooth to an entire set, top and bottom.
The Teeth In One Day dental implants are a sophisticated and advanced dental implant solution that allow for the largest number of replacement teeth to be fixed on the least amount of implants; four in total for a full arch.
They work in much the same way as standard multiple tooth dental implants but, among other differences, have a unique angle of fixture at the back of the jaw. This gives added structure to the jawbone, and allows longer implants to be used, which can be fixed to stronger bone, allowing the implants to fuse more effectively.
The candidacy for Teeth In One Day dental implants is pretty much the same as for standard dental implants, but Teeth In One Day makes the procedure even more accessible, as will be explained.

|Product Overview:
|Recombinant fragment of human VEGF Receptor 1 (aa 783-end) with an N-terminal His tag
|This gene encodes a member of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) family. VEGFR family members are receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) which contain an extracellular ligand-binding region with seven immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a tyrosine kinase (TK) domain within the cytoplasmic domain. This protein binds to VEGFR-A, VEGFR-B and placental growth factor and plays an important role in angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Expression of this receptor is found in vascular endothelial cells, placental trophoblast cells and peripheral blood monocytes. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Isoforms include a full-length transmembrane receptor isoform and shortened, soluble isoforms. The soluble isoforms are associated with the onset of pre-eclampsia.
|Tissue specificity:
|Mostly in normal lung, but also in placenta, liver, kidney, heart and brain tissues. Specifically expressed in most of the vascular endothelial cells, and also expressed in peripheral blood monocytes. It is not expressed in tumor cell lines. Isoform sFlt1
|Biological activity:
|Specific Activity: 170 U/mg. One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will transfer 1nmol phosphate to the tyrosine substrate per minute at pH 7.4 and 30C. Assay buffer: 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 3 mM MgCl2, 3 mM MnCl2, 1 mM DTT, 3 uM Na-orthovanadate,

Or the intersection of warm water and the concrete wall of a swimming pool. March may provoke similar feelings of contrast for us.

Think Fast: The 3rd International Manila Improv Festival is Happening on July 8 to 12
Nobody knows what's going to happen. Awesomesauce.
(SPOT.ph) It's been two years since the last festival and between that time and now, the Silly People's Improv Theater (SPIT) has been productive in...basically, everywhere. They participated in two local major festivals (The Imaginarium and Fringe Manila) and made people laugh in Hong Kong and Amsterdam. That's aside from regular shows in your favorite bars.
Come July, the group will play host to groups from the exotic lands of Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo, Warsaw, and Bacolod. The performance is about a month away, but we're certain that the 18 participating improv groups in the 3rd International Manila Improv Festival are all busy "rehearsing." They may not have a script, but trust us, being on your toes is a 24/7 gig and staying sharp requires a lot of dedication.
Along with performances, the festival also features workshops. SPIT founder Gabe Mercado mused that the group is prepared to be a better mentor, especially now that offshoot companies like Switch are doing well in the industry. It's a different role, but with decades of practice in handling the unknown, it is almost certain that the group will be sensational in that field as well.
That's not to say that this is their last hurrah. Far from it, actually. The size of the festival is a testament to the growing interest in the art of improvisation and the audience has matured enough to appreciate it as performance art. Groups like Lamb Ink, whose style is a little more experimental, can rest easy knowing they won't be met with blank stares and confused brows.
There's a lot to look forward to from July 8 to 12 at The PETA Theater Center. Not the least would be seeing what 3 Dudes Improv (Hong Kong), The Beijing Collective (Beijing), Impromafia (Brisbane), The Improv Company (Singapore), Landy & Summers (Los Angeles), People Liberation Improv (Hong Kong), People Republic Comedy (Shanghai), Pip Show (Warsaw), The Pirates of Tokyo (Tokyo), Taichung Improv (Taichung), To Be Continued... (Hong Kong), and Zmack (Shanghai) have on The Bacolod Improv Group, Dulaang Atenista, One and a Half Men, SPIT, and Switch. The short form games will always elicit a few chuckles, but we're excited to see the long form improvisation from all the groups. Who wouldn't want to see 30 or more minutes of funny stories being born, one after the other?

Birth Plan
Date of birth:
Birth involves lots of surprises, and because of this, it is important to establish which options you desire or are open to as the experience unfolds. The Birth Plan is intended to be a flexible guide for how you envision your birth—you may change your mind at any given moment, and we understand that. This plan is intended to be an aid to you, your partner, doula, and caregiver so that we may honor and remind you of your first intentions.
Beginning of labor
- I would like labor to begin naturally, even if I pass my due date. If my bag of waters breaks first, I would like to wait for contractions to begin on their own.
- I want to spend as much time at home as possible before I go to the hospital.
People in the room
- I request that no residents or students be present during my labor.
- I would like my partner and our doula to be present for labor and delivery.
First-Stage Labor
- I would love to use water during labor to ease pain (bathtub or shower).
- I would like to try to go through the process of labor and deliver without any pain medication. If needed, I would like to talk to my partner and doula before receiving any.
- I request that the hospital staff suggest natural ways to manage pain (massage, changing position, walking).
- I would like as little interruptions and vaginal exams as possible.
- would like augmentation performed only if baby is in distress.
Second-Stage Labor
- I would rather risk a tear than have an episiotomy.
- I would like a squat bar to help me push.
- I would like to be able to see my baby or touch my baby's head as they are crowning.
Cesarean Section
- I strongly hope to avoid a cesarean.
- If a cesarean becomes necessary, I would like my partner to be present at all times.
- I would like to be conscious during the procedure.
- I would like to hold or touch my baby immediately afterwards, before examination.
- I would like to hold and do skin to skin contact immediately after birth.
- I would like the staff to wait until the umbilical cord stops pulsating before clamping it.
- I would like my partner to cut the umbilical cord.
- I do not want routine Pitocin postpartum.
- I would like to postpone routine newborn procedures for as long as possible (1 hour), until after I have held and breastfed my baby for the first time.
- I would like all newborn procedures to take place in my presence, while I or my partner is touching the baby.
- I plan to breastfeed.
- I DO NOT want my baby to be circumcised if he is a boy.
- I DO want to keep the placenta and will bring a special container (Cooler) for it.
- I would like an epidural to help relax if I am not making progress with dilation.
- I would like to try Pitocin to help with contractions if the epidural slows down my contractions.
- I would like to try attempt all possible options before opting for a cesarean.
Additional questions:
Are you video-taping the birth? If so, who will be in charge of this—partner? doula? family member?
Is there anything special we should be aware of such as religious observances, spousal issues, sibling needs, etc/
What are some things that you DO NOT want for your labor and birth?
What are your main fears surrounding labor and birth?

It's been nearly ten years since I found out I have a wheat allergy and during this time, much to the disdain of my mother, I've eaten somewhat little Russian food…
Even though it is still summer here in Sydney, autumn, as always, takes it's first breath in early February. Making itself known for the first time since the year prior, the mornings become a little crisper, and the days start becoming noticeably shorter. And whilst there is still plenty of warm weather about, I take it as a reminder that summer too, will come to an end in a few short weeks, and to appreciate and bask in what is left of the season…
Even though I eat very little Russian food these days, there are some standout dishes which are part of my regular cooking repertoire and this is one of them…

Horizon Zero Dawn Street Date Broken in South America
According to some reports, it seems that some stores in South America have broken the street date of Horizon Zero Dawn. Some users of NeoGAF have already come into possession of the game and on the forum notes are circulating too many spoilers about the plot.
It seems that some lucky players are already able to play the final version of Horizon Zero Dawn, the new action game of Guerrilla that was expected to release on February 28, 2017 on the PlayStation 4.
As evidenced by the picture shown above, leaked on the web through NeoGAF, it seems that the game is already out on the market somewhere, unofficially, and some users would be quietly playing the title, complete with spoiler also surfaced on NeoGAF, although everything is taken with the usual pliers, whereas these are just rumors.
Judging from the written language in Spanish on the packaging and the ESRB symbol, it seems that this is a copy for the South American market, however, there are no reports of uncontrolled leakages on the market in Europe, for the moment. Among the issues raised before the time there is also the leakage of the complete map of the exploitable world of Horizon Zero Dawn.
In recent days there had been talk of a break of day one in Brazil but the news was subsequently denied, the photos circulated in fact portrayed versions of the game of presentation of pre-orders, a simple empty case for store shelves.
There are no news of the street date broken with regard to North America and Europe, at least for the moment.
Recall that Horizon Zero Dawn will arrive in the US on February 28 while we in Europe players will have to wait until March 1 to get their hands on the new game of Guerrilla.

PRA ready for country-wide launch of computerised identity cards
PRA ready for country-wide launch of computerised identity cards
MAZAR-I-SHARIF (Pajhwok): An official from the Population Registration Authority (PRA) said on Wednesday that the department is fully prepared for the distribution of the much awaited computarised identity cards.
Although he did point out some technical difficulties, he added that PRA is hopeful that everything would be set up on time for the process to begin.
Mohammad Karim Seghani, the Deputy Director of the PRA, while inaugurating the newly constructed provincial building in northern Balkh province, said that no serious issues are being encountered regarding the country-wide distribution of computarised identity card.
He said they are currently waiting for the decision of the joint commission of the Wolesi Jirga (the lower house) and the Mesharano Jirga (the upper house),which will decide the fate of the Population Registration Law.
The Wolesi Jirga had earlier rejected the presidential legislative decree regarding the amendment to the census law, but the Mesharano Jirga had approved it. Now a joint commission of the two houses has been convened to take the final decision.
The distribution of the computarised identity card become controversial over the induction of religion, nationality and ethnic identify, which has prevented its initiationfor the past few years.

suggested. And working alongside landscape architects,
Narboni's team experimented with lighter paving to
boost brightness in this dimmer light.
'Trying to negotiate with politicians and technicianstook over a year. In the end we took them to one street inClichy Batignolles where we'd been experimenting withthese ideas. They thought the street was bright. Whenwe told them it was just 10 lux they couldn't believe itwas so low. But they didn't accept our proposals: theywere worried residents would complain. Everyone is forreducing light pollution but as soon as you demonstratewhat that means there's reticence.'Fear of the dark is an entrenched demon. The perceptionamong electors that it generates violence and crimemake politicians most afraid of 'taking risks', he argues.'We have statistics from police proving 80 per cent ofmajor crimes take place in daylight. Politicians aren'tprepared to take a chance so we need to educate andbuild trust slowly.'This process, he says, doesn't faze him: designers,landscape architects and architects are there to helpdefine a city's future, not its tomorrow. 'Some justcreate, they don't think what the city could or should belike in 20 years. You have to have vision, not get stuck inthe everyday world.'Happily, outside Paris public officials are 'lessconservative'. In the northwest French city of Rennes,Narboni has proposed a new lighting strategy that placesentire zones in total darkness, while others are barely lit.'They accepted the concept. All they wanted to knowwas how to apply it. And that's what we're working onnow,' he says, with a broad grin.

Open Post: Hosted By The "Power Rangers" Trailer
October 9, 2016 / Posted by: J Harvey
They didn't even include "Mighty Morphin'"! This is respect-free! The trailer for Power Rangers has dropped, and my condolences if your childhood was killed in the blast. Everything's very serious now and someone cloned Zac Efron. Elizabeth Banks and Bryan Cranston must both want a bigger summer mansion in St. Barts next year, so they're involved. That's Elizabeth murdering the classic Rita Repulsa character and wearing her skin to menace CW fodder at 1:52.
As we've discovered in this year's presidential election, nothing is sacred.
Watch the Power Rangers trailer below.
Our commenting rules are pretty simple: If you make any overly offensive comment (racist, bigoted, etc..) or go way off topic when not in an Open Post, your comments will be deleted and you will be banned. If you see an offensive or spammy comment you think should be deleted, flag it for the mods and they'll be forever grateful and give you their first born (although, you probably don't want that).

This is my proud result of my 1000 Cranes Project.
|This is currently my wallpaper. No big deal.
How did I do it? Well, let me explain my five year process.
- I bought a box of 1000 pieces of small origami squares.
- I learned how to make a paper crane.
- I folded a thousand of them. (This took about four years.)
- Dumped them all into a cardboard box.
- Waited a year, thinking about what to do with them.
- Strung them together with random bits of thread I found in my mother's sewing bag.
- Voila, I'm done.
But I'm never making another crane again. <3 Fi
