It is important to remember that as a woman, you should pick the relationship that suits you and be very clear about what you want with your partner. Ultimately, it is your business how you conduct your personal affairs and that should always be the top of your mind when it comes to how you view yourself and your life. A relationship, I believe, is a way in which two or more people talk to, behave towards and deal with each other. In a relationship, the feeling should be mutual, there should be mutual respect and it should be beneficial. The Ghanaian societal beliefs and culture puts women in a very tight corner when it comes to romantic relationships. Women are not able to express themselves and their feelings clearly in relationships. We put certain ideas in our heads, which does not help us.
It is mostly clear that women only look for love in a relationship, not sex. Anyone who has been in relationships throughout their lives know that every relationship is different; sometimes you want the sex, the relationship and all the responsibilities that comes with it, sometimes it's just the relationship and the comfort that it brings while other times, its all about the physical. Therefore, most women who only look for love in a relationship are bound to be hurt and heartbroken because it may not be what their partners are looking for. Love does not usually define a relationship since the love will one day fade away. The thing is, even when women just want a relationship to be about the physical, they risk their reputation being ruined and various labels like 'slut' being tagged to them, which should not be so. We make our cultural beliefs eat us up so deep that we are not as happy as we ought to be.
Even when it comes to sex, it is believed that a woman has to use sex to keep her partner, which is very wrong. People have sex for different reasons, some for love and others for respect but women should not have sex because they feel indebted to the man or because they want to keep a man. The belief that women have to use sex to keep their men, I think, stems from how sex is positioned, as something women give and men get, rather than a sharing between the two which is a healthier way to view it. These beliefs make men use various methods of pressure and coercion to get women to have sex with them. This whole idea of sex being the only way to keep a relationship secure is a particularly powerful method, more because it often does not work. The strength of a relationship is not based on whether there is sex or not. Many women all over the world give in to the pressure and their relationships end up dissolving, anyway. Sex, however great it may be, is not always enough to keep a relationship going.
The belief that women are naturally faithful than men also make women endure things they are not supposed to endure in a relationship. We put it into our heads so much that men are naturally polygamous and so even when we catch them red-handed cheating on us, we forgive them and endure but have we ever sat to think a man will ever forgive his cheating partner? Hell no.. We give the men so many opportunities to ride on us just because of social pressure. It is funny how the society ensures that women stray less but then, accepts and applauds a cheating man. Women who have affairs out of their relationship or marriages face harsher treatment. They could be ostracized, beaten or even killed yet the men walk scot-free. The reality is that anyone can potentially have an affair; it has very little to do with gender and far more do with circumstances, the state of relationship and how someone feels about themselves and their partners.
We women always want men to take control of the relationship, by so doing, we give them the right to boss us around and yet we give them so much space to flirt with whomever they want to. We must note that everything in a relationship should be mutual, from respect to benefits. We should have sex because we want to and enjoy it. We should give men as much space as they give to us. We should never tolerate a cheating man with the belief that he will change after marriage because a cheat will always be a cheat. Women should not complicate their lives with the wrong partners; we should make all our needs and concerns clear to our men. Communication is the only tool used to build a relationship. Our worth should be seen and felt and more importantly, never stay in an unhappy relationship. If you are not as happy as you want to be or ought to be, JUST LET GO.

7.x: Unexpected "The program is compiled with EurekaLog 7 trial version"
Posted by Aleksandr Alekseev on 17 July 2012 23:27
I'm trying/evaluating trial, but I get this message for my specific application:
Normally this message appears when your application is expired. This happens after 30 days since compilation. However, if compilation date can not be retrieved - then application is also considered expired.
In other words, if you see this message immediately after compilation - then this means that EurekaLog was not run to post-process your project. This can be due to some kind of installation problem or project configuration problem.
A very common reason for this issue is dropping TEurekaLog or TEurekaLogV7 components on the form without actually configuring EurekaLog for your project.
One of the common reasons for this is mixing files from different EurekaLog versions. If EurekaLog code do not match injected EurekaLog's data - then EurekaLog's data are considered to be unknown version and will not be loaded. Thus, compilation data will not be retrieved and your executable will be "expired".
If you dropped TEurekaLog or TEurekaLogV7 component on your form, but did not configure EurekaLog via "Project" / "EurekaLog Options..." IDE menu command - do it now. Please, see this guide on using EurekaLog or watch video tutorial.
You can check output from EurekaLog. Use "View" / "Messages" IDE command to open build log (older Delphi/C++ Builder IDEs do not have such command; introduce non-used local variable to get "hint" from compiler about unused variable; EurekaLog's messages will appear in the same window). Build your project and watch messages from EurekaLog. A sample output of normal compilation may look like this.
For installation issues - please see this guide.
For post-processing issues - please see this guide.
You can check version of EurekaLog's code and data by using Module Informer (PE Analyzer) tool (which is available both in EurekaLog and EurekaLog Tools Pack).

Shopping in Nepal
Shopping in Nepal is easy. With a little money and some time one can obtain the best buys this little kingdom has to offer. A Nepali for company is a help if a shopping project is on your mind. Common tourist shopping items include souvenirs and trinkets like gems and jewelry. Hand-woven cotton fabric is a popular buy among visitors. Some buy pashmina wool items that Nepal is famous for while some pick up a variety of fresh tea and spices. Other popular buys among visitors are local craft and artwork. Among these are the Tibetan and Newar Thangka and Paubha paintings that belong to the time when these cultures were at their peak. Visitors buy Newari woodcrafts done on picture frames, windows, statues and carvings. Carpets that represent the age-old folk art of the Tibetans are also very popular. Traditional Nepali paper is popular as writing pads and bound journals, calendars and lampshades.

Who would dare have an encore?
Genieschlag 2009
Lexden Choral Society's Perfomance
of Brahms Requiem & remembrance day gala 2016
The real Eureka moment, the apple dropping on my head in my life, was my favourite girlfriend from Don Quixote leaving me in 2009. From that moment on I felt nothing but blessed as if I could do anything. She left me half way through my Masters dissertation and I just about got it done in time and passed my degree. The fact I know it was a real Genieschlag was that absolutely everybody hated me for it, but that I know from reading about such characters in history is that life gets very difficult for them from that moment on but they can achieve anything. I was obsessed with the fact that she wasn't coming back and I wrote 3 novels about it each over 50,000 words. That was the first thing I did, and I started to sing again. I had this little voice in my head saying I had the best voice in the world. So, I practiced some bass and tenor arias and found that I had a Baritone voice that had everything according to my experience. In the countertenor I'd had problems with breathing, but that was not the case with the bass voice and the range was exceptional. I have everything as a baritone except for a Wagnerian top Bb. I can go all the way down to an E or a D below the bass clef and I have a top G sharp on a bad day and a tenor A with a following wind. Indeed, when auditioning for Ian Ray's choir in 2017 he suggested I might even be a second tenor and not a baritone.
Singing Renaissance Dec 2014 – 2018
My mugshot with Aldeburgh Voices in 2016
During my Genieschlag I became very tense and had to go into hospital. I am a flawed genius because I get very tense if my blood sugar is out of order because. I have to be very careful with what I eat. In fact before the latest medication I was literally dying of my condition, but this new drug, Trulicity has really saved my life once again. I have two potentially fatal health conditions.
The catalyst for me pressing on with my creativity and singing is literally that since diagnoses in 2005 I've never known when I'm going to die. The Germans in Klinikum Barmen which is one of the best hospitals in Germany did mention to me they thought I had 10 years to live realistically. That's devastating news to a 27 year old. I just had this vision of being some kind of Freddie Mercury. I remembered the line from Hammer to Fall "Build yer muscles as your body decays!". He was a fantastic inspiration to me in that situation because I loved his music as a boy. He had an absolutely heroic effect on me because I didn't know if I had longer than 10 years. So, I just said lets go for everything I want to do in life right now without passing go and collecting 200 pounds. Let's see just how much I can fit into that time. Over the last 10 years I've been though incredible physical and emotional pain due to my illness. I've also been bullied by my family who have not been very understanding sometimes and blamed the whole thing of my illness on me, but I've got 90 compositions out of me, I've got 11 books and anthologies, I've been slowly transcribing and editing my 350 or so poems and publishing them, I've improved my languages, and my music theory on my own. I've built a self publishing set up and I've enjoyed this singing Renaissance.
It all began with a crush on a certain violinist. I got the fiddle out of the cupboard after having driven the neighbours mad practicing piano six hrs a day after university. I started doing five hrs on the fiddle trying to imitate this wonderful Ladies in Lavender sound of 2011. Totally bonkers. Anyway I popped up to the town one Sunday on my birthday in fact in 2014. I didn't know why I wanted to go to the Istore and it wasn't at all planned. It was closed until 10:30 it was only ten am and so I walked around block very bored and these people were all going into the Baptist Church for a service you see. I thought, why not? I haven't been to church for years! They were all really enthusiastic and competent musicians and they had this wonderful evangelical worship group. I prayed with them, and then they asked if anyone was musical enough to join the worship group, so I put a hat in the ring. He didn't want me to sing there but play the hymns on the fiddle. So, I ended up playing with my sweetheart Alice on the flute. We played all these lovely songs for worship I'd missed out on in the bells and smells tradition I'd grown up in. I also attended the one o clock evangelical service and prayed with them beforehand. They were some of the hardest evangelical love bunnies on the planet. I was the nicest religious experience I'd ever had and I was fully prepared to take the plunge. Unfortunately, Alice, Ian and I had a wonder jamming session playing the Rend Collection hit My lighthouse and really going for it on the Friday night and fell completely head of heals in love with Alice despite her having 3 kids I asked her to see me. For that I was excommunicated from the worship group but luckily I'd been invited by one of the Baptists, called John to sing with a concert choir at St Leonard's Lexden run by John Chillingworth the cellist and Sarah Blake.
I started to sing for Sarah Blake's church choir at St Leonards and did over 100 services for them between Easter 2015 and Easter 2017. It was a good solid choir doing similar things to school and I really learned to sight read from my friend Robin Greatorex who was a Kings Ely Cathedral Scholar in his youth. We did a new anthem every week plus chanted canticles and psalms, occasionally we did full choral evensong with Stanford in C. It get's pretty busy being a high church, conservative evangelical style of worship around Holy Week and Christmas but I wanted to do it as well to make my peace with God having had my doubts in me 20s and I didn't know how long I was going to live. I fully enjoyed those two years. They just didn't realize how much I gave them as a choir in terms of voice they were all about being modest and I can be forthright at times. Sarah did appreciate me but the guys were ultra competitive with me and the woman priest hated me and we fell out. We just spent too much time together. Because I was sick and went to morning and evening prayer and she didn't like me at all it got a bit out of hand. I was unhappy about my friend Owen being cut short talking about his candle duties at the PCC and she was like that with him too patronizing. I complained to Bishop Stephen. I think he asked her to moved on. I was politely discouraged from going there again on a regular basis. In my catholic fraternity we discussed those sorts of things all night long if necessary and he wasn't allowed to make a single point. She asked Owen to stop singing the Lent prose solo because she felt it should be sung be a woman. Sarah was lovely because I really fell for her but she was so kind to me because she knew I needed someone and she never complained about me. She was such a good friend to me because she knew I was in need. She was such a good Christian. So sweet.
Anyway I did some concerts for her concert choir as well. Lexden Choral with John Chillingworth we did. the John Passion, Trial by Jury, Faure Requiem, Handel's Messiah Brahms Requiem and some carols. Apart from that I got into Aldeburgh Voices for a couple of concerts back in the big time with Ben Parry in 2016. I did Aldeburgh Sing Christmas and a performance of Handel's Messiah with AV and they were the two most enjoyable concert of my entire life. Oh, it's so wonderful to sing with Martin Stevens, he should have been a pro, he nails every note and is so committed singing. One of the best amateur singer I've ever known faultless, genius and it such a pleasure to sing with him. Ben Parry is so good at developing people into that person too and I was delighted beyond comprehension to sing with the best 8 young singers in GB the NYCGB fellowship scholars on the solos in the Messiah at Snape Maltings and we blew audience through the back wall with the Hallelujah chorus it was faultless from me too and we didn't sing it in conventional parts either but as soloists sitting next to members of other parts ladies and men mixed up. That is the best way to sing it because you have to reach out for a member of your voice and listen to him rather than destroy what his doing for your own prowess. It's wonderful I wish I could sing like that all the time.
I've also done 5 concerts for TRBC The Really Big Chorus 4 for ex King's singer Brian Kay at the Royal Albert Hall and in Guernsey, St James Hall, St Peter Port where we performed the Gounod St Cecilia Mass from scratch, and I've the Royal Albert hall four times with Bob Chilcott and Brian Kay, singing Carmina Burana, Verdi Requiem, The Armed Man and Mozart Requiem. I also sing and continue to sing for the Roman River Festival Choir with Orlando Jopling and Ben Vonberg-Clark, I had a brief spell with Ian Ray and Colchester Choral. I also now sing for Daniela Bechly and her choir which is a great choir of really competent amateur singers mostly women of my age, but with some guys. Daniela is a professional and international competition winner and soloist.
I've now performed 21 oratorios 4 operas and operettas. Over 200 hymns, over 250 carols and about the same in anthems. My bumper year was 2016 when I did 9 major concerts and over 50 services. I've stepped off the gas since then to spend time on Europe and on writing and composition. If the concerts come the come if they don't they don't it's always been the way with me.
I have an audition on 30th August, an exciting one for Brussels Choral Society who are just like AV. I've finally become a musician anyway.

Amelia Earhart's lei, 1935
On January 11, 1935, Amelia Earhart took off from Wheeler Field on Oahu, Hawaii. The next day, she landed in Oakland, California, becoming the first person to fly solo between Hawaii and the United States. When she arrived in Hawaii, ahead of her historic flight, she was given several leis, including the one shown here, which can also be seen in the photograph that documents the event.

One Response to "Video: CBS Sports Previews the Vikings at Panthers Sunday"
Here's this week's Handle's take:
CAROLINA –3½ over Minnesota
Hard to imagine the 1-5 Viking having a letdown game but after a semi-respectful showing at home to Green Bay last week, they could be even flatter than usual here. Minnesota's three road games thus far, all on grass, have produced an 0-3 mark while being outscored 85-44. Panther defense is ranked a stellar 12th in the league and they appear to be getting stronger with each passing week. Vike are an ugly proposition after game with rival Pack.
Play: Carolina –3½

Flu Season Peak Approaches South Dakota
SIOUX FALLS, S.D.- It's flu season and we all dread to hear the doctor say, it's time for your flu shot.
"It's important for us to take it seriously because it is a very serious virus. This is really a family of killers in many ways" says Doctor Wendell Hoffman with Sanford Infectious Disease.
Right now in South Dakota, there aren't many cases of the flu. Looking back at the latest data there was 14 confirmed cases before the New Year, but that could soon change.
"Often times it does happen that the influenza virus epidemic, which is seasonal, will start in other parts of the country and then kind of fills into the Midwest. So I anticipate that we are going to see more and more flu cases over the next number of weeks" says, Hoffman.
So if you're one of those people putting off the shot, doctors say now is a good time to get it done.
"It's not too late for you to get your flu vaccine in January here. In fact, it wouldn't be too late for you to get your flu vaccine. However, we would like people to get their flu vaccines now" says, Hoffman.
Doctors say the vaccine is safe so there is no reason not to get the shot. In fact, you could help keep the state on the right track when it comes to fighting the flu.
"Well, I would say, South Dakota, historically really is fantastic with regards to its rate of influenza vaccination," says, Hoffman.
Doctors advise parents to get their children the shot instead of the FluMist. Recent studies show the nasal spray isn't as effective as experts initially thought.

When people band together, pledging the various levels, allows for the accumulation of the funds from the many to be channeled to the creator of the project. Now, the creator has enough funds to initiate the manufacturing process.
While running the Planet 313 Kickstarter campaign I have ran across several folks that find it difficult to sign up onto the Kickstarter site and back the project.
I wanted to make sure that we had a step by step to help these folks get onto the site and back our project.
These steps will get you signed up to support our project on Kickstarter.com.
When will my card be charged?
· If we do not reach the funding goal, your card will NOT be charged at all!
· If we reach the funding goal, your card will be charged the evening of the final campaign day or the day after. (depending on Amazon Payments approval backlog at the time.)
Who guarantees that the pledge level rewards will be fulfilled for Planet 313?

They won't get better. They'll get worse. So give up five minutes at the end of class once a week (or on those terrible days when the behavior in the classroom is intolerable to you), just to talk with kids. Let them know the good things you noticed. Let them know the things that happened that bothered you. And then be willing to listen to their critique. Kids are not diplomatic, but they are genuine. It's hard to take public critique of your teaching. But if you can swallow your pride and really listen, without letting it get under your skin and lashing out, you'll learn things that will make you a better teacher. With periodic class meetings you can communicate to students the things that bother you, and that they may not be aware they're doing. And you can learn from them things that you can change to improve their attitudes and behaviors.
2. Change the setup. Civil engineers watch how people utilize spaces. You should too. Think about the physical layout of your classroom, especially those places where traffic jams happen. Consider how you can improve the flow to get students to their seats more quickly and minimize the congestion. Congested areas are often the source of behavior problems. And anything that slows kids down as they enter the room means you can't start class on time. Moving furniture might be a solution, but perhaps finding a strategy to avoid having students delayed in that area of the room would be more effective. For example, perhaps the routine is for students to pick up handouts from a counter near the door. If kids pile up there, it delays a smooth entry to class and probably keeps you from starting class on time. Maybe it would be better to have collated stacks of handouts ready to distribute after everyone is seated. Think about the things that delay the start of your class and make a change for better efficiency and less congestion.
3. Restructure the beginning of class. In my job as an instructional coach with teachers who were really struggling, one thing was noticeable and nearly always present: a lack of structured routine. The first ten minutes of class are critical. While you are taking care of "administrivia" like attendance every student should be in their seat and quietly working. If they aren't working on something productive, they'll keep themselves entertained in less desirable ways, leaving you to repair the damage. Don't let that happen.
The challenge, of course, is finding the warm-up activities. I'll get you started with some that can be adapted for quite a few subject areas. It's a set of questions that I originally developed to give to parents. But I've had feedback from teachers telling me that they have used the questions successfully as writing prompts. Writing is important in every subject. So here's a free start for your warm up activities: Conversation Starters. The picture below is a sample from the set.
4. Restructure the end of class. We all have pressure to "get through" or "cover" our assigned curriculum. And we all have a tendency to feel more and more urgency to do that as the year progresses. We rush through the last few minutes of class in order to "teach" everything we have planned for the day. By doing that we might meet the goal of "covering" the material, but we're not effectively teaching it.
There's a memory effect called "primacy/recency". Basically it boils down to the fact that students remember best what they heard first and remember second best what they hear last. What they hear is not always what you said. Hearing requires attention. "Remember the quiz tomorrow!" shouted as students rush out the door will be neither attended to nor heard.
The solution is to stop "covering" the curriculum. Discipline yourself to leave ten minutes at the end of class for a summarization activity, such as an exit card, to hold students accountable for learning something every single day. If you hold them accountable - even with the briefest of summarization activities - their behavior during class will gradually improve. You don't have to spend a great deal of time correcting or grading those summarizing activities. Just sort them into three piles: Gets It, Kinda Gets It, and Doesn't Get It. Use the piles to help you decide what might need reteaching, and what seems to have been mastered. Give a minimal number of points for credit. I used three points, two points, and one point respectively, because it's not enough to hurt a student who was absent, but in my class, if accumulated over the course of a semester, it was enough to impact a grade. Because it was based on mastery of material, I felt comfortable using those points as part of a final grade, and by having points attached to it, students felt more inclined to complete the work - especially as they saw points accumulating.
5. Require engagement. Sounds easier said than done, right? Wanting it and requiring it are two different things. One great zero-prep method of requiring engagement was taught to me by a fabulous high school ESL teacher named Ali.
It is a strategy Ali called Ask Answer Add. She didn't use the strategy every day. Usually at the end of a class, but sometimes when she felt engagement waning during class, Ali would require every student in the room to ASK a question, ANSWER a question, or ADD to an answer given by another student. She just kept a roster and checked names during the activity. She'd start with a question about something she'd just taught. She'd ask for someone to answer. Then the other students could ADD to the answer, or ASK a follow-up question or a new question. Students quickly learn that it's a lot easier to ask, answer, or add at the beginning of the activity than it is at the end. Ali simply would not allow students the choice to disengage. She wouldn't let them leave class until they'd all responded in some way. I'm sure it took some practice. But students in her class learned to be ready to Ask, Answer, or Add whenever Ali decided it was time.
Another great way to require engagement takes a little more explanation. Check out the resource pictured to the right. They're called Response Cards. Click on the link to see more about them.
The preview of the resource will give you the general idea of how it works. You can save yourself some time by purchasing the set of cards, but if you don't want to do that, or want to make your own, please feel free to just look at the preview and get the general gist.
6. Review. You probably went over your class rules and expectations during the first week of school. But it's important to do that again after every extended break. Take part of the first day back to school to greet your students and to have a simple conversation with them. Then review your expectations, introduce anything new that you've decided to implement, and enjoy your "new year" with your students!

Opening with a somewhat harrowing sequence showing the arrival and separation of a father and son pair of illegal immigrants – unhinted at by the happy-clappy trailers – "Nativity Rocks!" quickly settles down into the twee, ramshackle charm of a school nativity play given big-screen licence we've come to expect from the franchise.

The Predator (2018) Review
The Predator franchise hasn't had as much bad luck as its studio stablemate the Alien.

Hotel Transylvania 3: A Monster Vacation (2018) Review
Legendary animator Genndy Tartakovsky returns for a third time to bring us the further adventures of Dracula and his growing family. Although he's often spoken about stepping away from the series, we should be thankful he's stayed onboard because it's his involvement that keeps this amiably undemanding series from sliding inexorably towards mediocrity. Mistaking her … Continue reading Hotel Transylvania 3: A Monster Vacation (2018) Review
The Equalizer 2 (2018) Review
I'm enough of a fan of the original TV show "The Equalizer" to wish Antoine Fuqua had found a way to incorporate Stewart Copeland's superb synth-driven theme tune into this modern reinterpretation. But my favourite part of the TV series was always the helping out of 'the little guy' rather than the bigger, over-arching spycraft … Continue reading The Equalizer 2 (2018) Review
Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018) Review
*SPOILER WARNING* Donna is dead to begin with. As dead as a doornail.

Preparing for the grand opening of the Hotel Bella Donna, Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) is working … Continue reading Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018) Review
Incredibles 2 (2018) Review
Picking up mere moments after the first film ended, "Incredibles 2" wastes no time in re-treading the same ground as its illustrious predecessor.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) Review
*SPOILERS, I GUESS (IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE TRAILERS)*I've long nurtured a theory about the Jurassic movie series, which is the secret ingredient to a really good "Jurassic Park" film isn't the dinosaurs, it's the park. "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" confirms the theory by breaking the deadlock 3 to 2. The dinosaurs are the 'wow!' … Continue reading Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) Review
Sherlock Gnomes (2018) Review
Following in the footsteps of the Man Of Steel and Captain America, Gnomeo and Juliet become the latest characters to have their sequel hijacked by a bunch of different characters as the franchise tries to position itself as a vehicle to reimagine classic British literature, a sort of anthology of garden toy stories.

Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle (2017) Review
There was a howl of outrage heard around the world when plans were first announced to make another "Jumanji" film.

Turns out the Robin Williams CG-heavy jungle adventure … Continue reading Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle (2017) Review
Blade Runner 2049 (2017) Review

Following the … Continue reading Blade Runner 2049 (2017) Review
Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017) Review
"Kingsman: The Secret Service", a gleefully disrespectful, violent and funny action reworking of "My Fair Lady" was an unexpected delight, right up until it ended on a decidedly bum note.

Jaws: The Revenge (1987) #SharkWeak Review
Among this movie's few achievements is the coining of the instantly cliché tag line 'This time it's personal'.

When Sean Brody … Continue reading Jaws: The Revenge (1987) #SharkWeak Review

War For The Planet Of The Apes (2017) Review
As a rule, I'm not a fan of prequels.

In the aftermath of Koba's betrayal … Continue reading War For The Planet Of The Apes (2017) Review

Mechanic: Resurrection (2016) Review
Rivalling "Suicide Squad" for worst editing of 2016, "Mechanic: Resurrection" is a confused and underwhelming mix of lush location footage and studio bound cut scenes which feel more "That Riviera Touch" than a modern action thriller.

Alice Through The Looking Glass (2016) Review
While 2010's "Alice In Wonderland" may have left critics unimpressed, audiences embraced its restless, kooky energy as Lewis Carroll's mastery of the absurd and impossible was filtered through the dark kaleidoscope of Tim Burton's vision.

The Huntsman: Winter's War (2016) Review
So, is "The Huntsman: Winter's War" a prequel or a sequel? In truth, it's a bit of both, forming a wraparound tale which actually turns the original film into the dull middle chapter of a decent fantasy trilogy.

I saw "Minions" accompanied by Mertmas and four of his friends as part of a 9th Birthday treat, so here's their perspective: "Minions" pretty much hits its target market spot on.

Statewatch article: RefNo# 25553
EU agrees US PNR deal
Statewatch News Online, May 2004
- European Parliament by-passed in shoddy deal that undermines privacy and EU data protection rights
- leading MEPs call for the "Conference of Presidents" to discuss on 15 June
The General Affairs Council of the EU meeting in Brussels on Monday 17 May 2004 adopted - without debate - the EU-US "light" international agreement which obliges European airlines to give access to passenger name records (PNR data) to US agencies (this followed the Commission's finding of "adequacy" of the US "Undertakings", see below).
This decision effectively annuls the case that the European Parliament had sent to the Court of Justice for an opinion on the legality of the measure. However, the parliament can still exercise its rights under Article 230 of the EC Treaty to seek the annulment of the international agreement or of the "adequacy" finding or both. This is exactly what Graham Watson MEP (leader of the ELDR, Liberal group) and Johnna Boogerd-Quaak MEP (the rapporteur) have called for by requesting that Pat Cox, the President of the parliament, ensures that the matter is on the agenda of the "Conference of Presidents" (the meeting of group leaders) on 15 June: Letter to
Pat Cox, 18 May 2004
Pat Cox wrote to the
Irish Presidency of the Council
and to
Mr Prodi, President of the European Commission
, on 5 May informing them of the parliament's opposition to the deal and the impending case before the court and calling on them to wait for the court's Opinion. The very same day the Commission started the "written procedure" process to adopt their finding of adequacy.
The Watson/Boogerd-Quaak letter to Cox says that despite the Commission having been informed of the parliament's Resolution of 30 March and its decisions of 21 April and 5 May to seek the opinion of the court they have gone ahead. The letter also refers to the Boogerd-Quaak MEP:
Letter to Pat Cox, 7.5.04
One matter in the US "Undertakings", on which the Commission's finding of "adequacy" was based, emerged only recently according to Commissioner Bolkestein. This was the US demand that passenger data plus any "intelligence" added by US agencies could be passed to third countries - this has apparently been resolved by the US "informing" the Commission when it has done so. This gives no protection whatsoever to EU citizens and is yet another breach of EU standards under the 1995 EC Directive on data protection.
The European Association for the Protection of Human Rights (FIDH-AE):
Press statement
(18 May, pdf)
Tony Bunyan, Statewatch editor, comments:
"The Council and the Commission have throughout this process shown a contempt for the opinions of the democratically-elected European Parliament which has voted against the EU-US PNR deal on three occasions - and ignored the highly critical reports from the EU's Article 29 Data Protection Working Group.
Under the guise of the "war on terrorism" personal data - including e-mail addresses and credit card details - will be checked out against an unspecified number of US agencies and commercial databases, data will be added and stored on an unspecified number of databases, the data will form part of a "life-time" record of travel and can be transferred without the consent or knowledge of the individual to third states. The "deal" breaks the rights and protections of the 1995 Directive on all these counts.
The scheme will not stop terrorists travelling to the USA - if they are on a "watch-list" they would presumably be arrested when booking the ticket or on arrival at the airport. If they are not on a "

There were only 4 months to go until their wedding day when Shirley and Kris decided to book our services. They heard about us through a friend of theirs who also trusted us with their wedding.
Shirley is a beautiful, smiley and optimistic person who at the time was really busy with work, as was Kris. She explained that she was looking for a memorable weekend wedding including a welcome dinner with a Halloween theme on Friday, the wedding on Saturday and a fantastic BBQ in a stunning venue on Sunday.
The wedding took place in early November and we were very lucky as we got a fantastic weather with an amazing sunset during the canapés reception. They went for a white and olive green colour palette and the live music was the main theme.
We hired a music band originally from the UK but based in France who accompanied the guests from the moment they walked into the welcome reception until the end of the ceremony. It was great seeing everybody led by them to the beautiful and cosy chapel where their childhood Reverend held the Anglican blessing. After the ceremony and during the canapés reception, a jazz band took over.
Last but not least, Shirley changed into a spectacular golden gown that surprised everyone right before the party. The band then took over the party, followed by a DJ that made sure the fun lasted until the very early hours of the following day.
Thank you very much, Shirley & Kris, for your trust
Love x

Premiere of "Queen Of Sheba" a symphonic collaboration with Ibrahim Maalouf at the Jazz A Vienne Festival
On July 9th, the trumpet player Ibrahim Maalouf was in the Antique Theater of Vienne, in front of more than 7,500 spectators, for an unprecedented project with the Orchestre des Pays de Savoie and singer Angelique Kidjo.
All gathered around a muse: the queen of Sheba. A historical figure from Jazz to Vienna, the Beninese singer, dressed in a royal dress, bears in her that strength of character that the Queen of Sheba had. A myth mentioned in biblical, Koranic and Hebrew stories, that of a woman who reigned over a kingdom stretching from Yemen to northern Ethiopia and Eritrea. She would have gone to Jerusalem to fight against King Solomon, attracted by his reputation for wisdom.
Angélique Kidjo wrote for this show, presented for the first time, seven texts like the seven enigmas that the queen would have asked King Solomon to seduce him. Because it is above all a love story. The meeting between two rulers that will give birth to Menelik, the first king of Ethiopia. Enigmas that promote tolerance, respect and sharing.
Once again, Ibrahim Maalouf moves us as much as he enchants us, accompanied by Angélique Kidjo, always so sublime and charismatic.
Because this creation was done without barrier. Ibrahim Maalouf's music is, as is often the case, a mixture of influences in which Afro beat, classical music, pop, etc. mix, where the notes are as sweet as a serenade and suddenly more powerful like passion.

I can't thank Adam enough for all the hard work, dedication and the time he spent in selling my townhouse. Adam did all the hard work for me, he went above and beyond to help me, I very much appreciate it. I most definitely would recommend Adam to anyone who is selling or wanting to purchase a home. Adam is an expert in the real estate field and I was very lucky to have him as my agent.
Tracy - 2/51 School Rd, Stafford
My wife and myself chose Adam to sell our home based on his ability to "keep it simple". There were no excessive marketing costs,he was honest and accurate in his appraisal and he was punctual and courteous at all times.His feedback was accurate and our expectations were more than fulfilled. Jo-Anne and myself cannot recommend Adam highly enough.
Darryl - 22 Seventh Ave, Kedron
Adam suggested what needed to be done to make my property more attractive without spending a fortune. I am glad I took his advice as I had a contract on my property one day after it was listed for sale and I got above my asking price. Many people commented on how nice it looked with an inexpensive face lift and some staging furniture. I would definitely recommend Adam to anyone thinking of selling their property.
Sue - 6/92 Broughton Road, Kedron
I have utilised Adam's services now as both a buyer and a seller. I was very impressed with Adam's attitude and service. Adam took the time to listen to my needs and manage to negotiate a win-win situation for both the existing tenants and myself. His communication was timely and I feel he will go the extra mile to achieve a positive result. I believe he has a good local knowledge of the real estate market and would recommend him to others.
Karen - 20 Cootha Street, Everton Park
Empathetic approach
Adam was unfailing in his patience in dealing with diverse family points of view. He was always courteous and understanding and highly professional in his approach to helping a very old man work through the emotional time of selling his family home.
Rob & Trish - 188 Stafford Rd, Kedron / Gordon Park
Professional Excellence with a personal touch.
I can't say enough about the service provided by Adam in selling my property, nothing was too much for Adam when it came to getting the best outcome for my husband & I. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone selling or buying a property, his knowledge & professionalism was of a very high standard. Thankyou.
Leanne - 1/39 Collier St, Stafford
Thank you Adam Stefan.
It is with pleasure to have the opportunity to provide Adam Stefan with a big thank you. Adam put me at ease from the beginning and went above and beyond to help me with all my questions and replying promptly with the answers. Adam's hard work, constant communication, great advice and support throughout the selling of my place and the purchasing of another property was impressive and very much appreciated in a very stressful period. I commend Adam for the input into the quick and successful sale of my property. He is very professional and has a very thorough knowledge of his area which helped enormously in finding me a place to purchase after my sale. I would not hesitate to recommend Adam to anyone wishing to sell or purchase a property.
Tracey - 3/28 Lutana St, Stafford
Highly recommended real estate agent
High level of professionalism and very accommodating real estate agent. Good market knowledge around Stafford/Gordon Park and made the sale process easier than I would have expected. Thanks Adam!
Alan - 5/37 Gamelin Cres, Stafford / Gordon Park
As a first time seller I was very apprehensive and clueless about the actual process. Having heard lots of horror stories I was quite nervous and suspicious about the task in front of me when I decided I was going to put my property on the market. Fortunately I choose to walk into LJ Hooker at Stafford for my initial interaction with real estate agents. My first meeting was with Adam Stefan and whilst initially he was not going to be my agent due to circumstances he ended up being my selling agent. I was more than pleased with how things unfolded. I was fortunate that the property sold in less than a week but the settlement didn't just happen without any issues. Adam was there all the way with me and the communication was excellent. He continually reassured me and kept me updated on every development. He and his colleagues communicated on my behalf with the buyers til it was brought to a satisfactory conclusion. Would I use Adam Stefan as my agent again - definitely.
Denise - 3 Balal St, Stafford
From our first dealing with Adam Stefan we found him to be honest , truthful and professional in his approach to selling our property. He always kept us informed of the progress regarding the sale. Any enquiries that we had were dealt with quickly and to the best of his knowledge. We would like to thank him for a successful sale and would have no hestiation in recomending him to anyone who is of need of a real estate agent.
Allan & Robyn - 20 Alice St, Kedron
Very happy with Adam Stefan's work. I purchased first, and then sold my home in Gordon Park, both through Adam. The sale took longer than predicted but Adam stayed with the job. Many offers were made but no pressure for a quick sale applied until price met my complete satisfaction. His integrity and honesty is highly commended.
Sandra - 14 Shamrock St, Gordon Park
We found Adam to be very professional when it came to the sale of our property. Adam always kept us up to date with the open inspections and progress of anyone that was viewing the property. We would recommend Adam to sell your property.

The complete nucleotide sequences of the S RNA of two Japanese isolates of Watermelon silver mottle virus were determined. One was isolated from naturally infected watermelon and causes malformation on upper leaves of Tetragonia expansa . The other was isolated from melon and causes characteristic yellow necrotic lesions on upper leaves of T. expansa . The total nucleotide sequences of the S RNA of WS-O and WS-Y were 3553 nt and 3558 nt long, respectively. Both the nucleotide sequences and the deduced amino acid sequences of WS-O and WS-Y were quite similar even though the symptoms on T. expansa are quite different. They were also significantly similar to those of the Taiwanese isolates, Topso-W and Tospo-To. These results suggested that the Japanese isolates and the Taiwanese isolates of WSMoV were classified as one group not only serologically but also genetically. Within the S RNA sequences, the most variable region was the intergenic region between the N gene and the NSs gene. This was due to a 20 nt insertion between the Japanese isolates and the Taiwanese isolates.

"UNITED STATES FOREIGN POLICY IN THE MIDDLE EAST AFTER THE COLD WAR" (Book Chapter)
The Persian Gulf War presented the United States with the first major challenge of the post-Cold War era. President George H.W. Bush's successful use of diplomacy and military power presented new and unprecedented opportunities for the region and American leadership. Almost thirty years later, and either despite or because of a continuous American military presence, the region has arguably never been in more disarray and American leadership more absent. The United States did not cause all of the problems currently facing the Middle East, but it has a mixed track record in its response to regional events.
"Rethinking the Iran Deal," World Policy Journal, 8 January 2016
"The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA, a.k.a. "the Iran Deal") is now six months old. At the time of its release, I wrote that the United States and Iran couldn't achieve their jointly-held goals of destroying the Islamic State and al-Qaida, weakening the Taliban, and enjoying greater regional stability without "close and cordial cooperation between the two governments." In my analysis, I made two major errors. The first was in assuming that the United States was the only major viable partner for Iran in these specific military endeavors, and the second was in confusing Iran's interest in stability on its own borders with an interest in regional stability."
"Don't Reform the Security Council," World Policy Journal, 21 September 2015
"The dilution of the power of the P5 would succeed in making the UNSC more reflective of the UNGA, but it would also pave the way for more ad hoc side-meetings, informal arrangements, and unilateral action. The reason that a P5 state can take whatever action it wants — invade Iraq, annex Eastern Ukraine, build artificial islands to expand territorial waters, intervene in West Africa, and so forth — is not because it can veto any UNSC resolution directed against it. The P5 states can get away with anything because no other states have the power to stop them. Nuclear weapons, force projection capabilities, and global economic strength provide a lot more cover than does the veto power. "

1. Discuss the history and development of telecommunication in the US and in the Philippines. *In the US
The first telecommunication recorded was in Africa, the Americas and some parts of Asia where smoke signals were used to communicate. Alexander the Great also used this type of communication in a war in 320 BC. Then in 1792, the first fixed semaphore systems or visual telegraphy emerged in Europe with the help of Claude Chappe but semaphore systems needed skilled operators and expensive towers often at intervals of ten to thirty kilometers so the last commercial line was abandoned in 1880 and in the 1830s, the electrical communication started to appear. There were many people who experimented in electrical telegraphy. Some of which were the German, Samuel Thomas von Sömmering (1809) who based his work in Salva Campillo's robust design (1804), the British internationals, Sir Charles Wheatstone and Sir William Fothergill Cooke (1839) who viewed their device as "an improvement to the [existing] electromagnetic telegraph" not as a new device, Samuel Morse who independently developed a version of the electrical telegraph that he unsuccessfully demonstrated on 2 September 1837 and was joined after by Alfred Vail who developed the register — a telegraph terminal that integrated a logging device for recording messages to paper tape. On the 27th of July, 1866, she first successful transatlantic telegraph cable was completed. This allowed the telecommunication for the first time. Earlier transatlantic cables installed in 1857 and 1858 only operated for a few days or weeks before they failed. Then in the 1870s, Elisha Grey and Alexander Graham Bell both independently designed devices that electrically transmit speech which is the telephone. Alexander Graham Bell, who first invented the telephone and Elisha Gray entered into a famous legal battle over the invention of the telephone, which Bell won. On March 10, 1876, Bell's greatest success was achieved which marked not only the birth of the telephone but the death of the multiple telegraph as well. "Mr. Watson -- come here -- I want to see you." were the famous first words of Alexander Graham Bell to his assistant, Thomas A. Watson while speaking through the instrument. This was written in a notebook dated 10 March, 1876 where Bell also described his successful experiment with the telephone.
The AT&T Corp., formerly known as the American Telephone and Telegraph Corporation, is as old as the telephone itself. The company became AT&T in 1875, in an arrangement among inventor Alexander Graham Bell and financers, Gardiner Hubbard and Thomas Sanders. In 1878, the first telephone exchange, operating under license from Bell Telephone, opened in New Haven, CT. Transcontinental telephony was made possible with the first practical electrical amplifiers, devised at AT&T in 1913. The history of AT&T is in large measure the history of the telephone in the United States. AT&T became the parent company of the Bell System during the 19th century. The Bell System provided what was by all accounts the best telephone service in the world. In 1984, the system broke up into eight companies by agreement between AT&T and the U.S. Department of Justice. From 1984 until 1996, AT&T was an integrated telecommunications services and equipment company, succeeding in a newly competitive environment. AT&T is a global networking leader, focused on delivering IP-based solutions to enterprise and government customers today. The company continues to offer consumers and small businesses a breakthrough alternative to traditional services – Voice over IP –as AT&T pivots away from traditional consumer services.

The Allegheny Plateau is a large dissected plateau area in western and central New York, northern and western Pennsylvania, northern and western West Virginia, and eastern Ohio. It is divided into the unglaciated Allegheny Plateau and the glaciated Allegheny Plateau.
The plateau extends southward into western West Virginia, eastern Kentucky and Tennessee where it is instead called the Cumberland Plateau.
The plateau terminates in the east at the Allegheny Mountains, which are the highest ridges just west of the Allegheny Front. The Front extends from central Pennsylvania through Maryland and into eastern West Virginia.
The plateau is bordered on the west by glacial till plains in the north, generally north of the Ohio River, and the Bluegrass region in the south, generally south of the Ohio River.
Elevations vary greatly. In the glaciated Allegheny Plateau, relief may only reach one hundred feet or less. In the unglaciated Allegheny Plateau in southeastern Ohio and westernmost West Virginia, relief is typically in the range of two hundred to four hundred feet. Absolute highest elevations in this area are often in the range of 900 to 1,500 feet (270 to 460 m). By the Allegheny Front, however, elevations may reach well over 4,000 feet (1,200 m), with relief of up to 2,000 feet (610 m).
One of the more notable geologic areas within the Allegheny Plateau is the Hocking Hills region of southeast Ohio.
The Allegheny Plateau is a physiographic section of the larger Appalachian Plateau province, which in turn is part of the larger Appalachian physiographic division.[1]
