Get Your Free Audiobook
TextAppeal for Girls!
Publisher's Summary
Wouldn't it be great to know:
- Why he isn't texting you back!?
- Why your multiple texts are killing the attraction?
- Why he is so sexual in his texts?
And wouldn't it be invaluable to understand:
- How to have him text you back right away?
- How to have him ask you out with only a couple of texts?
- How to safely flirt with the greatest results?
- How to have him waiting for your text rather than the opposite?
What if....
- He were the one texting you all of the time??
- You could get him to respond instantly anytime you wanted?
- You could get that distant guy to pay attention to you?
- You could have him finally take notice?
- You finally know exactly what to say every time, to get what you want?
- You finally stopped feeling so much anxiety over that one guy because too many guys are paying attention to you?
It pains me to see so many girls/women alike making all the same, fully preventable, mistakes via texting. It pains me to hear from women nearly every day, how they pushed away that one guy that really mattered. The secret to fixing this is remarkably easy, something that you can master in minutes, and wouldn't that be worth it? I unshakably stand behind the concepts in TextAppeal, simply because they work, and work fast. You want to fix your problem? Want to fix it now? TextAppeal has the solution.

Don't Bother!
Would you try another book from Michael Masters and/or R. C. Bray?
Possibly. I don't blame the author. However, I would not try another with the same narrator.
Has TextAppeal for Girls! turned you off from other books in this genre?
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of R. C. Bray?
I don't know, but he sounds like a computer talking instead of a real person.
You didn't love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
I couldn't even finish it. I couldn't stand listening to the narrator.
Any additional comments?
Please choose narrators that sound real and have fluctuations in tone instead of a monotone, computer sounding voice.

Möbius syndrome
A child with bilateral facial nerve and abducens nerve palsy.
Patient Data
Loading Stack -
0 images remaining
Right facial nerve is hypoplastic and the left facial nerve is absent. Also, the floor of the fourth ventricle is flattened due to absence of the facial colliculus.
2 case question available
Case Discussion
In this case, the referring Ophthalmologist already had a working diagnosis of Möbius syndrome prior to imaging. The combination of facial nerve palsy and abducens nerve palsy is characteristic, and high resolution T2 imaging should be obtained in these cases to examine the cisternal portions of the facial nerve. Although, the abducens nerve is not routinely visualized on imaging, the absence of the facial colliculi should be sought, as they are mainly formed by the abducens nerve nuclei.

It's a chilly morning here in Florida! The temperature on the left is the present temp in our cabin, with the stove on for coffee (Ron claims it's up 2º); the reading on the right is our fridge. The good news is that the sun is shining and they're "promising" highs in the 60's today.
I'm thinking maybe I should knit myself a warm hat.–jes

There has been a broad welcome for the recently published report of the Independent Aquaculture Licence Review Committee.
Irish Farmers Association president Joe Healy described it as a significant and serious blueprint for the survival and development of a key food sector.
He said the report particularly addresses many of the deficiencies and delays in licensing which has cost the industry millions of euro and hundreds of jobs.
"The reform needs to be comprehensive in scope and focus both on immediate actions which can produce results in the short-term as well as initiatives which will bear fruit in the longer term," he said.
The review committee was set up by Agriculture, Food and Marine Minister Michael Creed to examines the process of licensing for aquaculture and its associated legal framework. This was in keeping with actions identified in Food Wise 2025 and Ireland's National Strategic Plan for Sustainable Aquaculture Development.
"Our aquaculture sector has enormous potential to sustainably grow its production of seafood to meet the opportunities presented from growing world demand for safe, sustainable seafood," said Mr Creed.
"Ireland's National Strategic Plan for Sustainable Aquaculture Development aims to sustainably grow our production across all species by 45,000 tonnes."
Mr Creed said to achieve that goal, there is a need to revamp the aquaculture licensing process as well as its associated legal frameworks. This move would ensure that an operator can have a decision on an aquaculture licence application within timeframes that compare favourably to our competitors.
"But any changes must ensure that all stakeholders can participate in a transparent licensing process and have confidence that any licensing decision complies with all EU and national legal requirements and protects our oceans for future generations," said Mr Creed.
The review group is comprised of retired senior civil servant Mary Moylan, chair; Lorcán Ó Cinnéide, chief executive of the Irish Fish Processors and Exporters Association; and Ken Whelan, the adjunct professor in the School of Biology and Environmental Science at UCD.
They were tasked with making recommendations to improve the existing licensing system and to undertake steps to review the legislative framework. They received 385 submissions.
Mr Creed said the report was commissioned against a backdrop of a licensing process which had accumulated a significant backlog and, it is fair to say, considerable stakeholder frustration on many sides.
"I have no doubt that the Independent Review Group has undertaken a considerable journey to understand the complex issues involved in this process and to reach the 30 recommendations in the report that I will now need to examine," said Irish Shellfish Association chairman Michael Mulloy, welcoming the report, said gaining a 20-year licence term was very significant for the sector — allowing for proper business management and succession planning in the industry.
In addition to a pre-assessment procedure, he welcomed more transparency in public consultation and the emphasis on seeking managerial and financial assurance in advance of new licences being granted.
Irish Salmon Growers' Association chair Damien O'Keeffe said the report contains many welcome proposals for simplification and increased transparency and customer service for both land-based and marine finfish farming.
There was also a warm welcome for the report from Marine Harvest Ireland, founded in 1979 as Fanad Fisheries by a group of Irish shareholders led by Anthony Fox.
It is now part of the Marine Harvest Group, the world's leading seafood, company based in Norway, and the largest producer of farmed salmon. MHI managing director Jan Feenstra said the publication of the report represents a significant milestone for the future development of Irish aquaculture.
"Our company intends to invest between €20mand €25m in a number of sites off the west coast of Ireland," said Mr O'Keeffe.
"However, we can only proceed if afforded certainty around the licencing process and regulatory regime here.
"There are many positive aspects of the report which mirror what we had proposed in our detailed submission as of the consultation process.
"We compliment the minister and the members of the Independent Review Group but of paramount importance now, is acting on the 30 recommendations contained in the report.
"It is now the minister's prerogative to outline what becomes of the report. We would implore him to set out a clear timeline regarding the implementation of the report's recommendations.
"Otherwise, the hard work of the Review Group will be in vain and our aspirations to create hundreds of new jobs will flounder.
"We must believe that this report has the potential to herald a new dawn for Irish aquaculture.
"The industry has been smothered in red tape and inertia for much too long, preventing it from prospering and delivering the targets set out in a swathe of Government reports and strategy documents."
Marine Harvest Ireland contributes over €15m to the domestic economy annually with some 800 Irish suppliers presently doing business with the company here.
Meanwhile, data from Bord Iascaigh Mhara shows that 2016 aquaculture production rose 9% in volume to 44,000 tonnes.
The value of production at first point of sale also increased by about 13% to €167 million and the industry contributed to providing over 1,900 jobs, a notable 6% increase on 2015.
Oysters are aquaculture's single largest employer — they account for nearly 1,300 of these positions.
Professor Alan Renwick noted in a 2015 report for the Irish Shellfish Association that oyster farming is a relatively young industry in Ireland. Many of those involved are first generation producers.
This has meant that they have been on a steep learning curve. However, the report added that those in the industry have now developed the skills to produce more consistently the quality of oyster required by the market.

Movie: Raid
Direction: Raj Kumar Gupta
Cast: Ajay Devgn, Ileana D'Cruz, Saurabh Shukla
Music: Amit Trivedi, Tanishk Bagchi
Cinematographer: Alphonse Roy
Editor: Bodhaditya Banerjee
Genre: Action, Crime
Rating: ∗∗∗½
What is it about: This film is based on the true events inspired by the longest IT raid ever done in India during 1981, Lucknow. The film is directed by Raj Kumar Gupta.
Why it's disappointing: There's not much to be disappointed.
What to watch out for: This film is neatly crafted to suit the timeline and was written well to adapt the true events from which it was inspired. The writing by Ritesh Shah was quite crisp and the dialogues were powerful. Director Raj Kumar Gupta did a great job in pinning the characters which were rooted to their attires and that made the film more interesting.
Ajay Devgn is quite a versatile actor, few things doesn't suit him but few characters sit tight. In this film as Amay Patnaik, he was brooding with screen presence and gave a strong performance.
Saurabh Shukla is an amazing actor. We love his penchant for adapting to the character, 'cause he does that like it's a child's play. He did a fantastic job as "Rajaji/Tauji".
Illeana d'Cruz had little to do, so you really can't comment on it. But there were supporting characters in the film which are worth mentioning. For instance Sheeba Chaddha she was good. Then comes Sulagna Panigrahi, regardless of less screen time, she pulls a good attention. Another silent performer was Gayathri Iyer, she may have fewer dialogues, but she was very expressive.
Apart from them there were two characters who stood out they're Amit Sial as Lallan, he did a commendable job. And finally Pushpa Joshi as Amma Ji, she was amazing, and cracks you up instantly, a great performer.
The cinematography by Alphonse Roy was good and it was neatly edited by Bodhaditya Banerjee. The music and background score by Amit Trivedi was good.
Verdict: Raj Kumar Gupta, did a good job in packing the longest raid in crisp 128 minutes and dished out an engaging thriller drama which was fuelled with strong dialogues and power packed performances. Definitely worth a watch.

This is a sponsored post from BlogHer and Smuckers.
The school year is right around the corner for most of us, and summer's togetherness will soon be replaced by a potentially hectic new schedule. With early mornings, and late nights as they get older, there are times I feel like I haven't seen the kids all week.
When we need to reconnect a little, when I fix my kids' lunches, I sometimes put a note in with them as a surprise, just to let them know I'm thinking of them, and am tuned in to what's going on at school, e.g. "I love you, and good luck on your test!" My older ones fix their own lunches, and I will sometimes sneak a note in theirs as well. (As far as I know, they've not been beaten up for it.)
The nice folks at Smucker's have taken the lunchbox note a step further, and given the lunchbox note a little twist. Smucker's Kidvitations are a cute way to make a note for your child's lunchbox to let them know you're thinking of them, and are looking forward to doing something special with them later.

Did You Know?
Wet ink glides in cursive stride as I write out another passage on paper. Underlining, jotting down, and circling phrases reveal more to me than first glance. God draws me in, leading and captivating me with each verse. Week after week, my notebook pages are crammed full.
People sometimes ask me, "How do you find time to write?" I often share, "I can't help but write." When you love to do something, you make time for it. And truthfully, I'm living out one of the purposes God has for me, leading this online ministry.
Did you know a year has gone by since it began?
Now tell me, where were you a year ago? Are you able to pinpoint growth in your life? I hope the answer is a confident YES! My prayer is this ministry is more than encouragement for you. I pray the encouragement you receive spurs you on to pursue more of God.
Since August commemorates a year of this ministry, I want to take the time to do two things out of the ordinary in a typical post. First of all, join me in praising God for his goodness in this ministry.
"Thank you, Father, for guiding, affirming, and transforming us through your Word. You are truly a God who lavishes good gifts upon his children. I praise you for leading us as you graciously promise in Isaiah 40:11."
Secondly, I want to encourage you, in many ways, using various Scripture passages. My encouragement for you, sweet sister in Christ:
When you are worn out from you day. . .
Remember to hope in the Lord and you will renew your strength. (Isaiah 40:28-31)
When you are in need of guidance. . .
Remember God generously gives wisdom if you ask. (James 1:5)
When you want to yell at your children. . .
Remember gracious words are sweet to the soul. (Proverbs 16:24)
When you've messed up as a mother. . .
Remember there is no condemnation for those in Christ. (Romans 8:1)
When you are weary of sacrificing. . .
Remember Jesus' humility in sacrificing himself upon the cross. (Philippians 2:3-8)
When you need to be reminded of your purpose as a mother. . .
Remember to train your child in accordance to God's Word. (Ephesians 6:4)
When you are tired of being intentional with your child. . .
Remember you will reap a harvest in doing good. (Galatians 6:9)
I hope you are encouraged! Finally, I want to share that I will be taking the next four weeks off from writing for this ministry. My plan is to spend time receiving much needed rest. I also plan to pray for this ministry and God's desires for the future. I want you to know you are welcome to peruse the archives to find a study you'd like to do for the next four weeks. There are plenty available!
As for the study this week, we will be taking a closer look at the passages referenced above. Please join along! To download the reading guide, click here. Let's begin this week's study by taking a closer look at Isaiah 40:28-31, NIV.
"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the week. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."
As you read this passage, consider the following:
What does God promise in these verses?
What does it mean to hope in the Lord?
*If you have been blessed by this ministry, please show your support. Share it with friends or simply "like" He Gently Leads You's facebook page.*

The beauty of France is that everywhere we go, we find interesting buildings and sites. Case in point is the little town of Trélazé, just outside of Angers, we stumbled upon when looking for a place to stay. Not a town that would otherwise have drawn our interest, we were intrigued to learn that it was famous for its blue slate. Extensively used throughout the region, it could be seen on the roofs, paths and in the garden walls of the houses and chateaus for which the Loire Valley is famous.
Appropriately enough, we stayed in a gîte in the centre of town called Les Nuits Bleues which, most importantly for the kids, had a dog (named Fiasco). Our hosts were so taken with our idea of a year-long trip around the world, they graciously left us a bottle of wine to celebrate.
Aran and Chris felt it time to sit still and 'chill' for a day (and to finish off some overdue homework!), so Eva and I seized the opportunity to visit Ussé chateau; given that there are 88 chateaux in the Loire region to choose from, it was difficult to decide. After Eva heard that it was the chateau that inspired the tale of Sleeping Beauty, she was sold and so off we went for our first mother/daughter escapade.
We then made our way further south making a brief stop along the way for a short hike to a menhir. Anyone who has read Asterix knows what a menhir is and how Obelix carries them around all the time. They are big pointy stones that are stuck in the ground and the debate rages on today as to what purpose they served. Technically the name comes from Middle Breton, the language that was originally spoken in Brittany, and means 'long stone'.
Our other learning opportunity for the day was much more grim. During our last visit to France, Chris and I had visited Oradour-sur-Glane with our friends, Daphne and Dion. This is a small village just north of Limoges which, on June 10, 1944 – just prior to the end of World War II – was destroyed by a German military company. In total, 642 inhabitants, including women and children were killed. While the men were shot, the women and children were herded into a church and it was set on fire. Only one woman escaped through a church window. The reason it is so fascinating is that the town has been kept as a memorial and it has remained basically untouched since 1944. We were a very solemn family as we walked quietly through this tragic site.
Moving into the Dordogne region, we stayed with more wonderful Servas hosts – Catherine and Patrick – just south of Perigueux. Eva was delighted to find that they had several animals, including a cat, chickens and rabbits. We explored the area the following day by heading to the Lascaux II cave in the morning. This area of France is famous for both its castles, as well as its Paleolithic art. Lascaux I cave (which dates back over 17,000 years) was found in 1940 but, due to damage sustained by the breath of too many visitors, it was closed to the public. A second cave, an exact replica, was created. It is this one that we visited. The paintings are absolutely amazing and depict animals that lived in the area so long ago including bison, bears and rhinoceros. After our visit to the cave, we drove around the countryside seeking out a perfect little lunch spot that Catherine had recommended. Needless to say, we didn't stop until we found it and boy, was the drive worth it.
After an almost 3 hours nosh, we managed to push ourselves away from the table and headed off for another hit of prehistoric art by visiting the Grotte de Rouffignac (Rouffignac Cave). This was a great thrill as we had to board a small, electric train that took us two kilometres underground. Imagine how dark it was when our guide turned out all the lights for a few seconds! With the lights fully on, we were able to appreciate just how amazing the cave paintings really are. Along with lots and lots of mammoths (there are about 158 paintings of them in the cave), there are also bisons, woolly rhinoceros and other such fantastic animals. Alas, no photos and no selfies were allowed, which actually helps to burn the memory of these prehistoric masterpieces into our minds.
We had made reservations to head to a third cave the next day but began lamenting the fact that we didn't have any time to spend canoeing the Dordogne River. Given that it was a beautiful day, we chucked aside the original agenda, picked up some paddles, and spent a most leisurely afternoon floating down the river. This truly is the best way to see some of the historic castles of the area. During the Hundred Years' War (between 1337 and 1453) where the English and French fought to control France, the French held the Château de Beynac and the English held the Château de Castelnaud. All these years later, the two still stand proud today and stare each other down across the river. We ended our canoe trip within eyesight of a third castle, Les Milandes. This was formerly owned by Josephine Baker, the black American singer/dancer who made her name in Paris during the roaring 20s.
Next stop, Toulouse, where we visit old friends and create new memories.

A review of the literature has failed to reveal similar bone involvement in leukemias in which the dominant cell is a monocyte or one of its immature forms.
Numerous accounts of bone changes in leukemia have appeared in the literature. In 1878, Newman and Eisenlohr5 described pathological changes in the bones in leukemia. Subsequent reports of bone changes in myelogenous and lymphatic leukemia were made by Osler,19 Snelling and Brown,23 Doub and

text: romey1 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2015 For background, my daughter's father passed away several months ago. State of Texas. He was never married and had 3 children. Two of the children are adults and my daughter is a minor. One of the adult children has already begun the probate process and is being appointed administrator. The decedent passed without leaving a will. He owned a home, several cars, and I know that he had bank accounts and investments and even some life insurance. The probate seems to be going very slowly. I don't even see that the Administratior of the estate has even been approved yet. From a very reliable, inside source, I know that one of his sister's was on his bank account, and I know that large sums of funds have been deducted from this account and given to 3 of the sisters. My understanding that each sister was given 10,000.00 each. Shouldn't this account be part of the estate? I am trying to stay clear of this whole situation , and have had no contact with the other siblings or the family, but I just feel that something wrong is going on here. It's my understanding that the Mother has also received his retirement account. I am guessing that he left her as beneficiary,. Just seems to me that a lot of things are going on, out side of these probate proceedings. My understanding is, that while in the probate process you have to get an inventory of the deceased things. Would that inventory be based on date of death? If the accounts have been liquidated or diminished, would the administrator have the right to request that funds be returned? I just see that things may be about to get real ugly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

i hope to be a bit more blog-minded this week - i have so many fun images to
share with you, including the tiegen family portraits (gorgeous) and
the engagement session i shot tonight with morgan and preston (also gorgeous)!
and speaking of gorgeous,
meet luke!
he is breathtakingly handsome.
he and his mom are madly in love.
i had so much fun with the two of them!
luke made not a peep for nearly two hours.
and then, when he had had enough,
he lifted his arms above his head, let out
the cutest little squeak ever - and since i had a
full memory card and a ton of gems -
we called it a day.
i hope i get to see luke for his 3 month photos.
he is precious.
(squeak squeak)
told you he's precious.
"just when you think you know love, something little comes along
and reminds you just how big it really is."

2013– England U21 10 Appearances, 8 goals
Tottenham striker Harry Kane continued to enhance his international credentials with his 15th goal of the season coming in the 2-0 victory over Leicester a fort night ago, and he stands to become only the second Tottenham player to make it to 20 goals since 2007-08; Gareth Bale got 26 in all competitions in 2013-14, the season before he departed for Real Madrid. Such impressive form is sure to have propelled the young striker into the reckoning for Roy Hodgson's next England squad.
Harry Kane made his first team breakthrough at the end of the 2013-14 campaign. Harry was handed his first Premier League start for Spurs against Sunderland in April, 2014 and responded with a first Premier League goal - the first of three on the trot. He ended the season with 19 appearances to his name in all competitions, scoring four goals.
Born in Walthamstow, Harry joined Tottenham Academy in July, 2009 and signed professional forms a year later. After impressing for the Academy teams, Harry joined Orient on loan in January 2011, made his Football League debut and scored five goals in 18 games. The following season, 2011-12, was his breakthrough campaign at Spurs with a debut against Hearts and six appearances in the Europa League including his first goal in the win at Shamrock Rovers. He then joined Millwall on loan in January and scored nine goals in 27 games for the Lions. Capped for England at Under-17 and 19 levels, Harry was a member of the Young Lions' squad for the U20 World Cup and played all three games in Turkey. The Young striker made his Premier League debut on the opening day of 2012-13, taking his tally to eight appearances. Harry then joined Norwich City on loan but a serious ankle injury restricted him to four appearances at Carrow Road. On his return to fitness, Harry joined Championship team Leicester City and helped them reach the play-offs, where they lost over two legs to Watford. He made 13 appearances for the Foxes, scoring twice.
The unspectacular loan spells at Leyton Orient, Millwall and Norwich City proceeded Kane's time with the Foxes, and Magpies manager Alan Pardew has pointed out, the youngster seems to have an impressive work ethic to go with his natural talent. Indeed, the England boss looks set to be spoiled for attacking options for his next squad, with several other candidates propelling themselves into the reckoning. Kane has scored more than any of the frontmen used in England's last game, Wayne Rooney (eight goals in all competitions), Danny Welbeck (seven) and Raheem Sterling (six). England resume their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign in March, and with Daniel Sturridge expected to return to action in the new year, Hodgson looks set for one of those good headaches when he selects his next squad.
Harry Kane intends to buck a recent trend at Tottenham Hotspur and reach the 20-goal mark as he continues to enjoy one of the feel good stories of the season. There have been many startling indicators of Kane's rise to prominence and this form has come at the cost of relegating Emmanuel Adebayor to the status of foot-note. Kane started the season behind Emmanuel Adebayor and Roberto Soldado in the Spurs pecking order. Crystal Palace failed in a bid to take him on loan only because he was needed for the Europa League. But Kane has now moved ahead of his high-earning team-mates. With each goal comes more admiration from the Tottenham fans for their home-grown hero, who bursts with pride whenever he hears his name ring around White Hart Lane. Kane's form has helped Spurs to challenge Arsenal in the Premier League table and he would like nothing more than to help the club finally finish above their north London rivals.
Spurs face table toppers Chelsea next. Contests against the leading sides have traditionally seen the north London club come unstuck but with the young Englishmen in this kind of form Spurs will always have a fighting chance.

Global Telecom Holding, a leading international telecommunications company in Africa and Asia, has announced that it intends to raise capital via rights issue of EGP 11.2 billion ($624.7 million), through the issuance of 19.3 billion new shares with a par value of EGP 0.58.
Following the capital increase, GTH's issued capital will reach EGP 13.92 billion ($780 million) divided into 24 billion shares.
The company operates mobile networks in Africa and Asia. It has operations in Algeria (Djezzy), Pakistan (Jazz), Bangladesh (Banglalink), with its total number of customers exceeding 100 million in 2018.
The rights issue - approved by the Board of Directors by the end of November 2018 - will be offered pro-rata to existing shareholders of GTH as of the record.
The planned capital increase will partially be servicing the Company's debt, reducing its consolidated interest expense and supporting its ongoing operations in Bangladesh.
The company's financial obligations include loans from its main shareholder, VEON Group (owns 57.7%), in addition to providing sufficient liquidity needed to meet its operating companies' near-term needs, with focus on Bangladesh where significant investment has been made during 2018 on spectrum additions.
As per a statement from Global Telecom, $300 million will be injected to refinance its Bangladesh subsidiary financial needs.
"After an extensive review of the options available to GTH, supported by our external advisors, it has become clear that a rights issue is in the best interests of all stakeholders", said Vincenzo Nesci, Chief Executive Officer of Global Telecom Holding.
The CEO indicated that the Transaction will have a positive impact on GTH's financial position, reducing its reliance on VEON ltd and provide the liquidity necessary for the company to address the challenges it faces up-streaming funds.
Global Telecom Holding is majority-owned by the VEON Group, one of the world's largest mobile telecommunications provider. The company is traded on the Egyptian Stock Exchange.
In November 2017, a tender offer was deposited by Veon Holdings on 42.31% of Global Telecom Holding shares, though; Egypt's Financial Regulatory Authority didn't approve the offer, reportedly due to the company's debts.
While in July 2018, GTH announced that it has received an offer from VEON to acquire its assets in Pakistan (Jazz and its associated operations) and Bangladesh (Banglalink) for a total gross consideration of $2,550 million, but that was too refused by the shareholders as it didn't meet their expectations.

Paul Kantner, a musician who helped define the fabled "San Francisco Sound" in the 1960s as a founding member of the Jefferson Airplane, died Thursday.
The cause of death was multiple organ failure, his publicist and friend Cynthia Bowman told the San Francisco Chronicle. He reportedly suffered a heart attack earlier in the week.
The vocalist-guitarist, who helped craft such counterculture anthems as "Volunteers" and "White Rabbit," was 74.
Kantner was involved with a number of musical endeavors, but he'll be best remembered for helping get Jefferson Airplane off the ground and then taking the Bay Area band to some phenomenal heights.
The band's origins date back to the mid-1960s, when Kantner — who had spent some time studying at both Santa Clara and San Jose State universities — met fellow folk artist Marty Balin and began laying the groundwork for a new band. They recruited some other talents — most notably, guitarist Jorma Kaukonen — and the Jefferson Airplane made its public debut on Aug. 13, 1965 at the soon-to-be-legendary Matrix club in San Francisco.
The band — which was soon strengthened by the additions of vocalist Grace Slick, bassist Jack Casady and others — quickly become one of the Bay Area's hottest acts. The group signed with the mighty RCA Records label, resulting in the little-noticed debut, 1966's "Jefferson Airplane Takes Off."
The troupe's next record, "Surrealistic Pillow," was a smash hit and is considered a classic of the psychedelic rock era. It featured such anthems as "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit" and became one of the de facto soundtracks to the Summer of Love in 1967. The band struck a chord with the youth of the day, offering up swirling psychedelic anthems that featured political or surreal lyrics and driving folk-rock-blues riffs that had a profound impact on the direction of popular music. Alongside the Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service and other Bay Area bands, the Jefferson Airplane made the so-called San Francisco Sound a phenomenon. The band had memorable appearances at both the Woodstock Music Festival and the Altamont Concert in 1969.
Kantner didn't always get the most attention in the band. He often seemed to operate in the background, but he still played a huge role in piloting Airplane — and the latter incarnation Jefferson Starship — to success.
"Although he never wrote or sang lead on a hit single, Paul Kantner had the greatest impact on Jefferson Airplane/Starship of any member," Greg Gildersleeve writes on the Airplane's website. "If Marty Balin was the soul of the band, and Grace Slick its public persona, then Paul Kantner could be considered its brain."
Marty Balin wrote on Facebook Thursday: "So many memories rushing through my mind now. So many moments that (Kantner) and I opened new worlds. He was the first guy I picked for the band and he was the first guy who taught me how to roll a joint. And although I know he liked to play the devil's advocate, I am sure he has earned his wings now."
Kantner was a guiding force in the transformation from Jefferson Airplane to Jefferson Starship, an offshoot band with a more commercial sound that didn't generate the critical acclaim of its predecessor but sold a lot more records. It went on to reach platinum heights with the mid-'70s albums "Red Octopus," "Spitfire" and "Earth."
Kantner was inducted, as a member of Jefferson Airplane, into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
He is survived by three children, sons Gareth and Alexander and daughter China.

Over the past decade, India has invested significant resources in public diplomacy, using traditional and new approaches to build and leverage its soft power. This article examines the reasons for this investment, the various forms of public diplomacy India employs, and the effectiveness of its efforts to shape public opinion. It finds that Indian investment in public diplomacy is partly a response to concerns about the perceived growth of Chinese soft power and partly a function of changed beliefs in the foreign policy-making elite about the uses of new social media. It also finds that India's new public diplomacy seems to have met with some––albeit patchy––success in augmenting its soft power.

Learning Goals
- Students will identify potential stakeholders (e.g. individuals, social groups, scientists, community planners, emergency managers, decision makers, etc.) who would have an interest in or benefit from their assessments of hazards and vulnerabilities. Optional: Invite community stakeholders to attend and offer feedback or ask them to speak to the class.
- Students will make a general list of recommendations for preparedness, resource allocation and city planning to promote building a better prepared and more resilient community (these can be specific to a particular stakeholder group).
- Students (or groups of students) will choose a specific stakeholder to communicate their findings and recommendations in a hypothetical situation (potential forms can be a speech, written report, poster or PowerPoint presentation).
Context for Use
Note to instructors: Hazard professionals are interested and may want to talk to your class about the relevance/importance of their surveys. Think ahead of the module in extending invitations to professionals, as time permits.
This final part of the module is where students synthesize their findings from the previous units essentially into an action plan. We suggest at least two dedicated class periods to work on the presentations as students will need time to practice and get feedback from their peers and the instructor.
Description and Teaching Materials
Please note: We suggest that instructors give the students 1–2 minutes to discuss and list potential stakeholders who may be interested in this data (formative assessment). This can segue into an introduction on the role of stakeholders in disaster mitigation before moving into presentations:
Introduction to Stakeholders (PowerPoint 2007 (.pptx) 417kB Oct28 14)
Unit 3 Rubric (Microsoft Word 2007 (.docx) 23kB Oct19 14)
Activity 3:
This activity combines the results from Units 1 and 2. Each student group will be assigned a different stakeholder by the instructor (either "general public" or "expert") with whom they will hypothetically (1) share the results of the mapping exercise and survey results, and (2) make recommendations for building stronger community resilience.
Groups will begin by making a list of recommendations for preparedness, resource allocation and city planning to promote building a more resilient community. This list will focus on their specific stakeholder and will included in the presentation.
Finally, each group will prepare a 5–minute PowerPoint to present their findings and recommendations for their assigned stakeholder. The presentations will be given in class during the following class period. Students should be instructed to turn in a copy of their PowerPoint the day before the presentation.
Note to instructor: It is a good idea to invite stakeholders (either within the university or community) to attend during Activity 4. The students take it more seriously and they can also get valuable feedback on their presentations.
Activity 4:
Unit 3 Student Instructions (Microsoft Word 2007 (.docx) 27kB Oct19 14)
Students will give their presentations to the class. The class and instructor will grade the groups of students using the rubric. Finally, instructors will give students a short, post-module assessment to gauge student engagement, interest and degree of learning from participation in the module.

Publisher Description
My childhood was perfect.
I've led a charmed life, and I'm not going to blow it now by picking the wrong guy.
I've got my sights set on my brother's best friend.
He's known my family for years. He's reliable and kind and handsome.
Sure, he's been avoiding me since I was six.
I'm a bit aggressive for him, maybe.
But he's the one… right?
RIGHT is a full-length standalone novel.
This novel features Everly, Sophie's best friend from the novel Wrong.
Both books were written as standalones and can be read without the other.
Customer ReviewsSee All
Dayum. Also, delightfully written.
"You don't think I'm a bit much?" I hold my breath. Everyone thinks I'm a bit much.
Two years and several reads later, that line has stuck with me. Jana Aston writes characters that are so real. Eccentric, flawed, funny, insightful.. and Jana clearly adores them. She celebrates the things that set them apart. And (not to be completely heavy handed) her acceptance of her characters gives me insight and appreciation for my own.. I won't say flaws, but the things that make me different, that at points in my life I've wished were a bit camouflaged.
Also, hot as hell.
Love it
I couldn't wait to read Everly's book and I wasn't disappointed. I love what comes out of Everly mouth and she is determined to have her brothers best friend Finn, but is he who is right for her? I couldn't put this book down, I had to know what was gonna happen, at a certain part my heart broke for Everly. But don't worry it will be ok? I don't want to give anything away u just have to read for yourself. I wish I could give more then 5 stars because it deserves so much more.
Witty and refreshing
I love Jana's writing style! This is a laugh out loud, sexy read. Her characters interact beautifully. I can't wait to devour her other books.

Stress will be the end of you. If you let it, that is. Daily stress can add up and seriously bring you down, causing anxiety, depression, and even anger issues. What many dont realize is the havoc it can wreak on your immune system and overall body function. If it gets out of control it can increase cholesterol, blood pressure, weight gain, and cause insomnia, headaches, acne, and even hair loss. Take appropriate time to unwind and clear your head daily. Meditation with focused, deep breaths is a great way to reduce the silent killer that is stress.
Go for your regular checkups, at least annually. Men tend to avoid going to the doctor much more than women. Perhaps its the can-do, tough attitude that they can get better on their own. Maybe its for fear of bad news, or not feeling the necessity since you feel fine. Feeling fine often has little to do with actual health though. High blood pressure, cholesterol, or even diabetes will rarely present themselves in ways youre likely to notice right off the bat. Suck it up, be a man, and get checked out.
While were on the subject of things men are uncomfortable with, one of the most important things to monitor as men age is the prostate. Prostate cancer results in 250,000 deaths per year worldwide. Early symptoms are primarily found in the urinary system, where tumors can press against the bladder and cause either more frequent urinating, or trouble urinating. It can eventually spread to the lymph nodes in the pelvis, and eventually into bones. The exam may be a scary thought for a lot of men, but the possible repercussions are much more so.

I started to put my fingers in my ears.
I didn't want to hear him speak;
the sound of his voice sickened me…
but then I remembered
that this is why we are where we are today–
because we don't listen to one another.
And so I resisted.
I looked at him there on the TV screen,
(what I consider to be)
the same old insubstantial rhetoric,
and I tried to listen.
We need to learn how to listen
especially when we don't agree.
We need to learn how
to look at one another
and see the similarities
rather than the differences.
To find the humanness in our opponents,
to keep our hearts open,
to look for solutions.
Pretending they don't exist
won't make the problems go away.
May I keep my eyes and ears and heart open,
may I learn how to really listen.
Learning to Listen
I started to put my fingers in my ears.

Game Captain (Nov 12, 2007)
Frankreich, England und dazwischen wir Söldner. Ich habe von Bladestorm nichts erwartet und jetzt ist der Titel für mich einer der Geheimtipps des Jahres. Einen Auftrag noch, nur noch einen Auftrag, dann mache ich die Kiste auch endlich aus. Außerdem habe ich ja noch andere Dinge zu erledigen. Aber noch ein Auftrag. Gut, danach noch einen, der nicht so schwierig ist, aber dann ist Schluss. Spaß am Spielen, den hatte ich und wenn ich dann sehe, wie einige Spiele hoch gelobt werden, um dann tief zu fallen, dann klammere ich mich an diese unterschätzte kleine Perle Bladestorm. Sicher ist das taktische Action-Geplänkel nicht jedermanns Sache. Vor allem dann nicht, wenn ihr auf Schusswaffen steht, wenn ihr als Einzelkämpfer vorwärtskommen wollt. Wer aber ein episches Spiel sucht, wer gigantische Schlachten miterleben will und sein strategisches Geschick vor historischem Hintergrund testen möchte, der kommt an Bladestorm nicht vorbei, der übersieht auch gern die kleinen Schwächen des Spiels.
GameTrailers (Nov 17, 2007)
Every time Koei releases its barrage of real-time war games, it comes dangerously close to being labeled a one-trick-pony. And then the publisher turns around and releases something truly unique and inspired. Bladestorm is that game. The mixture of real-time action and strategy is a joy to play, and a nice departure from what is fast becoming a stale play mechanic.
Game Shark (Dec 13, 2007)
As is usual for a new Koei franchise, Bladestorm still has some rough edges. The engine can chug a bit when a few hundred soldiers are on screen, and the random battles you fight in between doses of story eventually get a bit repetitive. If there's one thing Koei is known for, however, it's taking a core game concept and polishing it endlessly, so most of these issues should be solved by the time we see a Bladestorm sequel. Until then, the game remains a refreshing change from the well-worn gameplay Koei has become famous for, and the epic battles provide a satisfying fix for loyal fans of the genre.
Eurogamer.net (UK) (Oct 16, 2007)
It's also a very, very good videogame: another brilliant evolution of Koei's unique interpretation of the real-time strategy genre, and every bit as satisfying as previous efforts. What it lacks in terms of the speed and immediacy of, say, Gundam Musou, it makes up for with strategic range, design ingenuity, and conceptual novelty. Whether it'll sell any better than the Dynasty Warriors games, though, is anybody's guess. It certainly deserves to.
AceGamez (Dec 07, 2007)
For me, it's nice to see Koei take a risk that has ultimately paid off; it shows that even established developers who seem stuck in their ways can see room for improvement, recognise potential and act upon it to create something different. If you want hollow button mashing then pick up the latest Dynasty Warriors, but if you are after something with a little more depth, breadth, scope and originality then give Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War a try; you might just be pleasantly surprised as it smashes away your preconceptions like so many scattering infantry.
4Players.de (Nov 29, 2007)
Der Einstieg gestaltet sich zwar etwas zäh und gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber es tut trotzdem gut, mal keinen fernöstlichen Kloppmist vom Fließband, sondern mittelalterliche Feldzüge mit neuen Ansätzen von den Dynasty Warriors-Machern zu spielen. Das strategische Gerüst ist zwar nicht sonderlich komplex und ungewohnt passiv, geht aber nach einer Weile locker von der Hand und belohnt mit monumentalem Schlachten vor ansprechenden Kulissen - auch, wenn jene teils mit massiven Slowdowns erkauft wurden. Die Motivation, seine Truppen zu erweitern und individuell zu verbessern, trübt das aber kaum. Auf Dauer gestaltet sich die limitierte Truppenführung allerdings etwas eintönig, die eher beiläufig erzählte Geschichte des Krieges bleibt ungemein blass und der Spielkomfort lässt teils deutlich zu wünschen übrig. Warum kann ich z. B. die Ausstattung meiner Truppen nur beim örtlichen Händler wechseln? Warum gibt es bei den meist mehrtägigen Konflikten keine Zwischenspeicherfunktion?
Destructoid (Nov 21, 2007)
Truly, Bladestorm requires a lot of patience and will sometimes antagonize you, but it's very much worth it. It's a lengthy slog -- I'm still fighting through it right now -- and will chew up a fair few hours, provided you're the type of person who can get into it. It would be foolish of me to recommend this to everybody, as some people are just going to hate it. However, as one of the few fresh things on the menu, I would implore anybody with determination, an interest in strategy, and a desire for something new to check it out. It's got a fair few flaws, some of which can be draining, but it's a fine game indeed, one of Koei's best efforts to date.
Game Over Online (Jan 04, 2008)
The game actually plays pretty well, and it is a pleasantly quirky combination of Warriors-style action and small unit tactics, but the lack of variety in the gameplay is a serious bummer. More mission types or some additional things to do would have been nice, and the total lack of any kind of multiplayer is almost shocking, not to mention terribly disappointing. Romping through the war with a few buddies would have been awesome, creating exactly the right kinds of combined arms strategies necessary to win battles. Instead the result is an almost success that lacks staying power, worth checking out if you're big into Koei's other franchises or at the very least not put off by a lot of repetition.
Play.tm (Dec 10, 2007)
Despite these few niggles, if you can overlook the moderate repetitiveness of the missions in Bladestorm, and conquer its slightly confusing initial battles, it's an extremely rewarding and fun game. The game makes for a refreshing change on the Xbox 360 by building upon the small success of Dynasty Warriors in Europe, and focusing on something a bit more European in feel. Its quirkiness remains Japanese, but in the good way. Bladestorm won't sell anywhere near as many copies as some of the big hits we've seen in the past few months, and it is probably unfortunate that it arrives in the midst of so many huge hits. But hopefully once the dust has settled, people will notice this game, take a risk and be pleasantly surprised. Bladestorm definitely harbours room for improvement, which we will hopefully see in a future sequel, but for now, it's certainly worth your time, and will keep you busy for many a long winter evening.
Boomtown (Feb 06, 2008)
Bladestorm is an odd game; on the one hand it offers reasonably entertaining action and a good mix of strategy and battling, with some excellent music and a strangely compelling story mode to play through. On the flip side, dodgy AI and a feeling of being detached from the game at times can raise the question of whether you're really having fun, or if you just think you are. With only one single player mode, and no multiplayer to speak of whatsoever, the limited amount of actual gameplay on offer coupled with the some-will-like-it-some-won't feeling that Bladestorm gives off, it's a difficult game to recommend. Definitely worth a rental if you're into the Dynasty Warriors games or you like the sound of the style, but be wary, as it's very much a game of highs and lows.
Official Xbox Magazine (UK) (Nov 08, 2007)
On the positive side, it's a balanced and rewarding war game that doesn't delve too deeply into hardcore strategy. Koei's trademark enthusiasm for rewriting history is also a huge reason to play, and yet despite all this you might still learn something about the 100 years war. Watch out Joan of Arc, I'm coming and England's coming with me.
XboxAchievements (Feb 03, 2008)
If you enjoyed Dynasty Warriors but wanted more, this game is a good move. It certainly is an excellent step forward and a worthy addition to any library for gamers who enjoy hybrid strategy/action games. The amount of repetition is definitely a drawback along with a difficult method for saving and reloading games, and the achievements are rather bland. Overall, a solid entry in the genre, perhaps even a leader in some ways, but if the genre does not interest you this game will not change your opinion at all.
GameZone (Nov 19, 2007)
Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War has a lot going for it, including as the utime frame it is set in. Unfortunately, this game has several shortcomings that prevent it from truly breaking out of the crowd this holiday season. Hopefully the developers will fix these issues and come back next year with a much stronger product.
IGN (Nov 08, 2007)
Bladestorm is fun, for the most part. If it had a little more polish and fewer technical flaws, we might go so far as to say that this is one of the finest KOEI games we've seen in a while. The change of pace and game direction is incredibly refreshing, so fans of the various Warriors games may want to give this one a shot, especially because those fans are probably used to overlooking technical disappointments. And, in the end, we're total suckers for Joan of Arc. Come on, she's just too cool.
PAL Gaming Network (PALGN) (Dec 10, 2007)
With some interesting and fun gameplay ideas, Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War is worth playing for fans of this style of game. Unfortunately, its undeniable flaws will keep it from becoming the success it could have been.
Jolt (UK) (Dec 03, 2007)
As something new, Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War is familiar but refreshingly new, even if doesn't exactly work out quite as nicely as Koei probably would have liked. As a sign of things to come, it's the first ray of sunshine for the Dynasty and Samurai Warriors style of game since those series' inception as a one-on-one fighter, but we still won't be crossing our fingers in anticipation of Dynasty Warriors 6 being brilliant.
Avid Gamer (Feb 17, 2008)
Your enjoyment of Bladestorm is likely to hinge on whether this is typically your sort of thing. As a Dynasty Warriors sceptic I was hopeful that this would be the title to drag me into the Koei groove but in practice it highlighted exactly the reasons why I've never been tempted in the past- repetitive missions and combat, recycled environments, slightly arbitrary mission success. It does represent a step away from the increasingly stale hack and slash bandwagon, but ultimately doesn't do quite enough to sustain interest or provide the depth and variety that might help spread the appeal to a wider audience. Oh well…
Totally Gaming Network (Nov 22, 2007)
Bladestorm is a game suffering an identity crisis. It simply tries to be too many things and as a result delivers poorly in all aspects. This strategy based role playing action game holds no place in my heart and while not a terrible title it's not really worth your time either. Rent it if you're a strategy fan with money to burn, otherwise avoid it and save yourself the disappointment.
DarkZero (Dec 04, 2007)
All in all, it's hard to recommend Bladestorm to most people, as it could easily end up feeling like a waste of your money. On the other hand, it could very well be one of the top games in Koei's action-strategy niche. In truth, the game does nothing to offend, but it also manages to come across as feeling a bit bland and half-baked at the same time. Even if you are a fan of the genre, then the new unit mechanics could be enough to put you off the game, but at the same time it could also be that little something extra you wanted all along. On the whole, Bladestorm is truly a game that is all things to all people, but unfortunately not in the best sense of the phrase.
GameSpot (Dec 07, 2007)
Even with such a solid, action-first squad-combat idea, Bladestorm comes off as only half-finished. Both the new gameplay concepts and the European setting need to be fleshed out more to really pick up on the promise shown here.
GamingExcellence (Nov 28, 2007)
If you're starved for strategy and like the idea of open-area, semi-persistent medieval battle scenes, Bladestorm might make sense. Unfortunately, you won't find rewarding, patient strategy, or dynamic action within. Couple this underdeveloped concept with some of the simplest AI you'll see, boring presentation, no additional online, co-op or competitive modes, and a lack of real meta-gaming or skill development across a campaign, and what do you get? A package that even the most desperate console commander will find little to rally behind.
Jeuxvideo.com (Nov 08, 2007)
Plus proche d'un Kingdom Under Fire que qu'un Dynasty Warriors, Bladestorm : La Guerre De Cent Ans ne provoquera que des soupirs et des crises d'hystérie de votre part. Bien que la gestion de nos troupes ou la customisation de notre champion ne manque pas d'intérêt, la réalisation technique à la ramasse ainsi qu'une jouabilité désastreuse, inspirée par celle de Dynasty Warriors, ne jouent clairement pas en la faveur du soft d'Omega Force. Ah ma bonne Jeanne, je me disais bien aussi que ça sentait le roussi.
Gamestyle (2007)
Sadly, Bladestorm isn't an improvement on the Warriors games. An awkward mish-mash of action and strategy, which fails to succeed on either count. The combat is monotonous and the strategy underdeveloped. One to avoid.
Cheat Code Central (Nov, 2007)
It is really hard to recommend this title, especially considering the next-gen price tag. The game is marred by technical problems and, if anything, is an exercise in mediocrity. Ambitious on so many fronts, Bladestorm ultimately never finds a satisfying home. Take heed: this blade is dull.
1UP (Nov 06, 2007)
With all these hiccups, we're pretty shocked that this war lasted one year, let alone 100.

In a Few Words
About twenty-two years ago, I was told I was lucky my now-husband had asked me to marry him.
It wasn't a "happy" lucky I heard. It was a "you're lucky because he's such a great guy and you're lucky someone that great is asking someone like you to marry him."
I can't say for certain the second option was the intent of the words. But it's what I heard, and I have carried it around for so long.
My husband and I celebrated our 19th wedding anniversary yesterday. Our marriage is by no means perfect. And I've felt – due in part to those words I heard all those years ago – that a good part of that is somehow my fault (even after sharing those words with my husband years ago and having him tell me such was definitely not the case).
But yesterday with a few pen strokes in his distinctive scrawl, my husband brought light into a dark corner of my heart.
What he wrote was this:
"_______ was wrong I'm the lucky one"
(In reality, we are each the lucky one.)
