A couple years ago, Manhattan architect Luke Clark Tyler, lived in a 96 square foot apartment. Instead of upsizing with his latest move, he chose to squeeze himself and his belongings into even less space.
Luke now lives in a 78 square foot shoebox studio. It's too narrow to fit a bed lengthwise, but using a bit of plywood and 2x4s he built his own custom bed/couch.
He keeps his clothes, plates, microwave, books, spices and shaving and cleaning supplies in a large built-in cabinet. The rest of his kitchen is a tiny refrigerator that helps hold up his desk (he works for home as a contract architect).
While he admits he misses being able to cook a real meal- though he's vegetarian so eats a lot of vegetables and nuts and can even microwave eggs- Luke doesn't see living small as a sacrifice.
He loves living in the heart of New York City- his place is in Midtown Manhattan's Hell's Kitchen- and he likes paying just $750/month (cheaper than the shared housing he could find in the area).

Viktor Frankl on the Art of Presence, the Soul-Stretching Capacity of Suffering, and How to Persevere in Troubled Times
By Maria Popova
The life-story of Austrian psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl (March 26, 1905–September 2, 1997) , is one of history's greatest testaments to the tenacity of the human spirit. In his remarkable 1946 psychological memoir Man's Search for Meaning (public library), previously discussed at length here, Frankl reflects on what his devastating time at Auschwitz taught him about the most essential driver of life — the inextinguishable human hunger for meaning, which separated those who survived from those who perished.
In one particularly poignant passage of the book, Frankl reminds us that the art of presence — an art so central to our everyday well-being — isn't merely about savoring the pleasant moments of everyday blessedness. Rather, its canvas stretches all the more exquisitely in precisely the opposite circumstances — those most trying and turbulent moments, when the ability to inhabit the present makes all the difference between life and death, both figuratively in matters of the soul and, in Frankl's Auschwitz experience, literally and bodily:
A man who let himself decline because he could not see any future goal found himself occupied with retrospective thoughts. In a different connection, we have already spoken of the tendency there was to look into the past, to help make the present, with all its horrors, less real. But in robbing the present of its reality there lay a certain danger. It became easy to overlook the opportunities to make something positive of camp life, opportunities which really did exist. Regarding our "provisional existence" as unreal was in itself an important factor in causing the prisoners to lose their hold on life; everything in a way became pointless. Such people forgot that often it is just such an exceptionally difficult external situation which gives man the opportunity to grow spiritually beyond himself. Instead of taking the camp's difficulties as a test of their inner strength, they did not take their life seriously and despised it as something of no consequence. They preferred to close their eyes and to live in the past. Life for such people became meaningless.
To be sure, Frankl is far from advocating for filtering the present through rose-colored glasses in order to soften its intolerable pain. Quite the opposite — much like John Cage came to believe when he discovered Buddhism, Frankl argues that presence comes from leaning into suffering, not from tensing against it:
When a man finds that it is his destiny to suffer, he will have to accept his suffering as his task; his single and unique task. He will have to acknowledge the fact that even in suffering he is unique and alone in the universe. No one can relieve him of his suffering or suffer in his place. His unique opportunity lies in the way in which he bears his burden.
Frankl points to commitment, be it to human relationships — "the soft bonds of love [which] are indifferent to life and death," to use Isaac Asimov's poetic language — or to purposeful work and cultural contribution, as the essential anchor of presence, the umbilical cord that links those in the most trying of circumstances to their own lives:
This uniqueness and singleness which distinguishes each individual and gives a meaning to his existence has a bearing on creative work as much as it does on human love… A man who becomes conscious of the responsibility he bears toward a human being who affectionately waits for him, or to an unfinished work, will never be able to throw away his life. He knows the "why" for his existence, and will be able to bear almost any "how."
Man's Search for Meaning is a remarkable read, life-changing in the most earnest sense of the phrase. See more of it here, though no annotated excerpt could possibly do justice to the expansive richness of its entirety.

So the new SkyDrive is out today, you can read about the awesome new features here (on the Building Windows 8 blog). The SkyDrive team really amped up their battle with DropBox in this new version. With Windows Phone, iPad, iPhone support, along with MAC and PC support, it really is pretty cool, and now completely accessible. Also with HTML5 support, it's super fast on the PC and MAC for browsers that hardware accelerate HTML5 based graphics.
However, I will miss Mesh. I wasn't asked to un-install it, as part of the upgrade, but I can see it coming (no I have no details here, speculation only)
Mesh had this ability to sync *any* folder to the cloud, which is now gone from this version of SkyDrive. Apparently all the DropBox fans have forced the hand on this one. Fortunately, on Windows (and I'm sure this works on a MAC too, but I can't test it, any mac fans post how to do it in the comments and I'll add it to the post) you can create links to folders to have things sync to your SkyDrive that aren't actually in your SkyDrive folder!
To do this you'll need to bust out the ol' Command prompt, in Administrator mode, because a symbolic link just isn't enough for SkyDrive to pick it up, you need a hard link.
- Click Start, and type in CMD, right-click on the cmd.exe and choose Run as Administrator
- Change to your SkyDrive folder, mine is c:\users\<username>\skydrive (so cd /d c:\users\seanda\skydrive)
- Next we're going to make a link to a directory that lives in My Documents Folder, I'm going to do that with this command to sync my "tools" directory: mklink /j "Tools" "c:\users\seanda\documents\tools". You'll get a line that says "Junction created for Tools <==> c:\users\seanda\documents\tools.
You'll notice a new tools directory being created, and it looks exactly the same as the other directory (contents and all, you didn't need to copy anything in). Now you can simply drop stuff in your c:\users\seanda\documents\tools directory, and SkyDrive will pick it up. (You might need to restart the SkyDrive system tray app for it to pick this directory up, although I didn't.)
Additionally, if you're trying to get this to sync between two computers, you'll have to set up the Junction before SkyDrive can drop files in there (meaning create the folder locations manually with the junction in place. I only use the one computer, so I didn't test this.

Yesterday, in a comment left on CentreRight.com (and discussed by Jonathan Isaby on Three Line Whip), Robert Key MP questioned the dedication of some of the younger MPs:
"Too many young Members are entirely predictable in what they say and how they vote. They are just as boring as the handful of insecure MPs who only ever speak about their constituencies and forget they are sent here as independent representatives to shape national policies and decisions and Britain's place in the world."
Well the younger MPs - 27 of the 2005 intake (listed opposite) - are certainly setting the pace on public trust in politicians this morning. In a letter to The Telegraph they say that consideration should be given to constituents having the power to "recall" Members of Parliament between elections:
"We would want safeguards to be put in place to ensure that this mechanism was not abused, such as requiring a high percentage of registered voters in a constituency to petition for a recall ballot, or only permitting a recall ballot when the Commons Standards and Privileges Committee has recommended it as a sanction. None the less, a mechanism of this sort used in exceptional circumstances would increase MPs' accountability, address some of the frustration felt by a disenchanted public and help restore trust in our democratic institutions."
ConservativeHome strongly supports this initiative - it was one of the recommendations we made in the fourth theme of our still unfolding Agenda 2008. We are also encouraged to learn that the letter was submitted with the full knowledge of the Tory leadership. On his blog yesterday, Guido noted that the Tories were waking up to the scale of voter discontent with the political establishment. We can only hope so. The party leadership still has a long way to go if it is to convince this site that it is genuinely anti-establishment. Admitting that he has been wrong about supporting more state funding for political parties and ending the incumbent-favouring control freakery that has characterised the reselection of MEPs would be signs that David Cameron was really serious. He shouldn't be afraid of admitting he was wrong on state funding. Voters are very supportive of politicians who hold their hands up, say sorry and adopt a position in tune with them.

Lindy, two and a half, has recently begun demonstrating many of the signs of readiness for toilet training. When she senses that she's about to wet her diaper, she gets a funny look on her face and sometimes drops into a squatting position. When she's about to have a bowel movement, she runs and hides behind the couch. She's even figured out how to get her diaper off and loves to run around the house naked whenever she gets the chance. Lindy's parents agree that this seems to be the perfect time to start. Yet when they point out the potty in the bathroom to Lindy and suggest that she sit on it for a while, she just laughs and runs away. She'd rather risk an accident—and her parents' annoyance—than sit still long enough to use the bathroom.
Determining the best time to begin toilet training is not always easy—not only because readiness occurs at different ages for different children, but because your child may be ready in one area of development but not in another. A one-year-old who happily sits on her potty to look at picture books still may not be able to comprehend the potty's real purpose, while a two-year-old who knows what potties are for may refuse to use his out of a toddler's natural desire to remain in almost constant motion.
In general, most children become physiologically ready for toilet training at around eighteen months of age—that is, their digestive system and bladder have matured to the point where they can delay a bowel movement or urination long enough to get to a potty. But they are usually not cognitively ready—able to associate the need to eliminate with potty use, to remember to use it, and to resist distraction long enough to complete the process—until sometime after their second birthday. The motor skills needed to get to the bathroom, manage clothes, and sit still on the potty are also clearly important.
So is the emotional urge toward independence and self-mastery—as well as sufficient emotional maturity to relax control sufficiently to avoid constipation. Social readiness—an awareness of others' toilet use and a desire to imitate their behavior—is a powerful motivating force for toddlers and preschoolers. Another factor is the verbal ability to understand your explanations of how toilet use works and to communicate to you any confusion or uneasiness they feel.
As you can see, a range of physical and psychological developments help support the process of toilet training. While it isn't necessary to wait until you're sure that every one of these developments is in place, each step does increase the chances of toilet-training success.

The United States' ability to maintain its influence over the rest of the world has been slowly diminishing. Since the petrodollar was established in 1971, U.S. currency has monopolized international trade through oil deals with the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and continuous military interventions. There is, however, growing opposition to the American standard, and it gained more support recently when several Gulf states suddenly blockaded Qatar, which they accused of funding terrorism.
Despite the mainstream narrative, there are several other reasons why Qatar is in the crosshairs. Over the past two years, it conducted over $86 billion worth of transactions in Chinese yuan and has signed other agreements with China that encourage further economic cooperation. Qatar also shares the world's largest natural gas field with Iran, giving the two countries significant regional influence to expand their own trade deals.
Meanwhile, uncontrollable debt and political divisions in the United States are clear signs of vulnerability. The Chinese and Russians proactively set up alternative financial systems for countries looking to distance themselves from the Federal Reserve. After the IMF accepted the yuan into its basket of reserve currencies in October of last year, investors and economists finally started to pay attention. The economic power held by the Federal Reserve has been key in financing the American empire, but geopolitical changes are happening fast. The United States' reputation has been tarnished by decades of undeclared wars, mass surveillance, and catastrophic foreign policy.
One of America's best remaining assets is its military strength, but it's useless without a strong economy to fund it. Rival coalitions like the BRICS nations aren't challenging the established order head on and are instead opting to undermine its financial support. Qatar is just the latest country to take steps to bypass the U.S. dollar. Russia made headlines in 2016 when they started accepting payments in yuan and took over as China's largest oil partner, stealing a huge market share from Saudi Arabia in the process. Iran also dropped the dollar earlier this year in response to President Trump's travel ban. As the tide continues to turn against the petrodollar, eventually even our allies will start to question what best serves their own interests.
Many E.U. member states are clashing with the unelected leadership in Brussels over immigration, terrorism, and austerity measures. If no solutions are found and things deteriorate, other countries could potentially follow the U.K.'s lead and vote to leave, as well. It is starting to become obvious that countries in Eastern Europe will look to the East to get the resources their economies need.
China, Russia, and India are all ahead of the curve and started stockpiling gold years ago. They recognize that hard assets will be the measure of true wealth in the near future — not fiat money. The historic hyperinflation that has occurred in these countries solidified the importance of precious metals in their monetary systems. Unfortunately, most Americans are ignorant of the past and will likely embrace more government bailouts and money printing when faced with the next recession. Even Fed officials have admitted that more quantitative easing is likely the only path going forward.
Several renowned investors have warned about this ongoing shift of economic power from West to East, but bureaucrats and central bankers refuse to admit how serious things could get. The impact on the average person could be devastating if they are not properly educated and prepared for the fallout.
Economist and author James Rickards summarized why China and Russia are so interested in acquiring precious metals:
They are stuck with their dollars. They fear, rightly, that the US will inflate its way out of its $19 trillion mountain of debt. China's solution is to buy gold. If dollar inflation emerges, China's Treasury holdings will devalue, but the dollar price of its gold will soar. A large gold reserve is a prudent diversification. Russia's motives are geopolitical. Gold is the model 21st century weapon for financial wars.The US controls dollar payments systems and, with help from European allies, can eject adversaries from the international payments system called Swift. Gold is immune to such assaults. Physical gold in your custody cannot be hacked, erased, or frozen. Moving gold is a simple way for Russia to settle accounts without US interference.
Mainstream pundits will continue to distract the public with the same optimistic talking points, but taking advantage of this calm before the storm is important. As this transition takes place, central bankers will sacrifice anything and everything to keep their Ponzi scheme going. Only individuals can take the initiative to protect themselves and be able to help others who won't be as lucky. Those who embrace sound money and cryptocurrencies will thrive in this new competitive global economy, but if America fails to adapt, the same fiat system that gave it power will drag it into poverty.

LSU's Reese unapologetic over gestures to Iowa star Clark
DALLAS (AP) — LSU's Angel Reese waved her hand in front of her face while staring down Caitlin Clark, then pointed toward her finger as if to say a ring was coming while walking toward the Iowa star.
The gestures late in the Tigers' 102-85 victory in the NCAA championship game Sunday lit up social media, with comments supporting the "Bayou Barbie" for trash talk that's just part of the game and condemning her for lacking grace in victory.
The bubbly junior from Baltimore, who transferred from Maryland to join flamboyant LSU coach Kim Mulkey, was unapologetic in the postgame news conference.
"All year, I was critiqued about who I was," Reese said. "I don't fit in a box that y'all want me to be in. I'm too hood. I'm too ghetto. But when other people do it, y'all say nothing. So this was for the girls that look like me, that's going to speak up on what they believe in. It's unapologetically you."
Clark, the scoring sensation who was the first with consecutive 40-point games in an NCAA Tournament, made the face-waving gesture to no one in particular during an Elite Eight victory over Louisville.
The Associated Press Player of the Year wasn't shy about showing her emotions when the Hawkeyes knocked off undefeated defending national champion South Carolina in the semifinals.
If she saw Reese's gestures, Clark didn't seem concerned about them.
"I was just trying to get to the handshake line and shake hands and be grateful that my team was in that position," said Clark, who scored 30 points. "That's all you can do is hold your head high, be proud of what you did. All the credit in the world to LSU. They were tremendous."
In a 79-72 semifinal victory over Virginia Tech, Reese made what appeared to be a "you're too small" gesture several times after scoring around the basket.
The fashionable 6-foot-3 post with modeling aspirations is becoming a social media magnet. Reese wooed Lil Wayne after chastising the rapper from New Orleans for reaching out to Elite Eight opponent Miami before doing the same with the Tigers.
"I'm going to be me, but I can't do it without the girls here, and I can't do it without the rest of my teammates and coaches," said Reese, who had 15 points and 10 rebounds while three teammates scored at least 20 points.
She was named the Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four after setting an NCAA single-season record with her 34th double-double against the Hawkeyes.
"Twitter can say what Twitter can say," Reese said. "I love reading those comments. I have all the screenshots of what everybody has said about me all season. What are you going to say now?"

An analysis of information spreading and privacy issues on social networks
An analysis of information spreading and privacy issues on social networks
Sayin, Burcu, author.

Fiziksel Tanımlama:
xii, 59 leaves: illustrarions, charts;+ 1 computer laser optical disc.
With Social Networks (SNs), being populated by a still increasing number of people, who take advantage of the communication and collaboration capabilities that they offer, density of the information, spread over SNs is increasing steadily. Furthermore, the probability of exposure of someone's personal moments to a wider than expected crowd is also increasing. Hence, analyzing the spreading area and privacy level of any information through a SN is an important issue in social network analysis. By studying the functionalities and characteristics that modern SNs offer, along with the people's habits and common behavior in them, it is easy to understand that several privacy risks may exist, for many of which people may be unaware of. We address this issue, focusing on interactions with posts in a SN, using Facebook as the research domain. As a novelty, we propose an application tool which visualizes the effect of potential privacy risks in Facebook and provides users to control their privacy. The proposed (and simulated) tool allows a Post Owner to observe the spreading area of his/her post, depending on the selected privacy settings of this post. Moreover, it provides preliminary feedback for all the Facebook users that have interacted with this post, to make them aware of the possible privacy changes, aiming to give them a chance to protect the privacy of their interaction on this post by deleting it when such a privacy change takes place.

The Global Obama (BOOK REVIEW)
The Global Obama Crossroads of Leadership in the 21st Century
Edited by Dinesh Sharma and Uwe P. Gielen
Routledge Books
Paperback, $59.95
364 pages
Review by Kam Williams
Obama [has] garnered higher approval ratings in most parts of the world than in
the United States. What a paradox. The first black president, loved by people
around the world, yet struggling for approval for his policies at home—whether
it be the healthcare initiative, the stimulus to bail out the economy, or his
'leading from behind' on foreign policies.
wanted to explore the stark contrast between Obama's popularity abroad and his suboptimal
ratings at home… Why the inverse correlation between the public image at home
versus abroad?
can't be a prophet in your own land, Obama suggested… Thus, the idea was
hatched to publish The Global Obama… It is only appropriate that we try to
grasp the total Obama…
part of Obama's worldwide appeal is due to his international biography… Barack
Hussein Obama's rise from his early life as a multiracial and multicultural
outsider in a broken family… to assuming the world's most powerful executive
position is as improbable as it is global in its trajectory and in its
implications for the evolving 21st Century.
whereas his life story has been the subject of several good biographies, his
global position as a leader has not been assessed in a sustained manner.
Obama's global leadership qualities and position and how he is being perceived
and judged around the world are the central and intertwined topics of this
Excerpted from the Preface (page xxi)
Obama was so uniformly admired when he became president, that he won the Nobel
Peace Prize during his first year in office, even before he had a chance to
prove himself on the world stage. And just last month, he received the warmest
reception of any of the heads of state in attendance at the funeral of Nelson
How has
Obama managed to maintain his popularity overseas despite suffering from
plunging approval ratings at home? The answer ostensibly lies in his being as
much President of the Planet as the President of the United States.
While he
has caught considerable flak from Republicans for the supposedly "apologetic" speeches
delivered to citizens on his tour of over 40 foreign countries and counting,
truth be told, those visits have actually cultivated considerable political
capital for the sage leader of the Free World. So, while his second term tanks
domestically due to the dubious launch of Obamacare, our peripatetic pres is nevertheless
likely to find continued approval abroad.
this surprising development is the raison d'etre of The Global Obama:
Crossroads of Leadership in the 21st Century. Edited by Dinesh
Sharma and Uwe P. Gielen, the enlightening opus is comprised of insightful essays
on the subject by a diversity of academics, shrinks, journalists and social
scientists, contributors coming from ports-of-call as far afield as Kuwait,
England, Thailand, Germany, Dubai, France, Kenya, Japan, Korea, India, Canada,
Malawi and, of course, the U.S.
The book simultaneously serves as a
logical follow-up to Barack Obama in Hawai'i
and Indonesia,
a painstakingly-researched biography of the President's formative years published
in 2011 by Sharma, a Professor of Global Cultural Studies at SUNY-Binghampton.
Here, the focus is on the charismatic role model's image as perceived by folks
on five continents.
A seminal exploration painting a complex portrait of the
President as a compassionate humanitarian, militaristic expansionist and Teflon
diplomat with incomparable strategic and oratory skills.

Forty eight percent said they would vote for Hilary Clinton, and that's 11 percent more than her rival Barak Obama.
I imagine this is down to maybe a couple of factors: firstly, recognition. Poles remember Bill – 'I did not have sex with that women' – Clinton. So Hilary is a known quantity. And the second reason I will leave to your imagination.
Poor old Republican nominee-in-waiting John MaCain doesn't seem to have much support at all in Poland. If the presidential race was between Clinton and MaCain then 64 percent of Poles would vote Democrat and just 20 percent Republican. If Obama was the candidate, then Poles would still vote Democrat but by the smaller margin of 52 to 36 percent.
So Poles are Democrats, interestingly, and they are rooting for Hilary.

Unprecedented Death Sentence for Christian Pastor on Charge of Apostasy
"Apostasy" Not Even a Crime Defined in Iranian Laws
(7 December 2010) The Supreme Court of Iran should immediately reverse the apostasy conviction and death sentence of Christian pastor Youcef Nadarkhani and release him from prison, the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran said today. The judiciary should also release another pastor, Behrouz Sadegh-Khanjani, who faces a similar prosecution.
Nadarkhani, 33-year-old who became a Christian at age 19, is a member of the Church of Iran ministry and the pastor of an approximately 400-person congregation in the northern city of Rasht. Despite being sentenced to death for apostasy, no articles in the Iranian legal code refer to such a crime.
"It is the low point of any judicial system to sentence a person to death outside of its own legal framework," said Aaron Rhodes, a spokesperson for the Campaign.
"To execute someone based on the religion they choose to practice or not practice is the ultimate form of religious discrimination and disregard for the freedom of conscience and belief," Rhodes added.
On 22 September 2010, the 11th Circuit Criminal Court of Appeals for the Gilan Province upheld the death sentence and conviction of Youcef Nadarkhani for apostasy.
Apostasy, the act of renouncing one's religion, is not a crime under Iran's Islamic Penal Code. Instead, the presiding judge in Nadarkhani's case rested his opinion on texts by Iranian religious scholars.
According to the judgment, Nadarkhani was born to Muslim parents but converted to Christianity at 19. The judgment stated that during interrogations Nadarkhani made a written confession admitting he left Islam for Christianity. But at his trial, Nadarkhani said his interrogators pressured him into making the statement.
"I am not an apostate … prior to 19 years old I did not accept any religion," Nadarkhani said at trial. After repeated questioning, "my interrogator coaxed me [into thinking] that a person who is born to Muslim parents, and does not accept a religion other than Islam before reaching the religious maturity age [15 for males], is automatically a Muslim."
On Sunday, 5 December 2010, Nadarkhani's lawyer filed an objection to his client's sentence with Iran's Supreme Court.
Articles 13 and 26 of the Islamic Republic's constitution recognize Christianity, granting Christians the right to freely worship and form religious societies. Article 14 obligates the Iranian government to uphold the equality and human rights of Christians.
The judge in Nadarkhani's criminal cases grounded his decision on provisions in the Constitution and the Revolutionary Court's civil procedures that instruct judges to consult sources when there is no codified-law that addresses a matter. The judge also cited a provision in the penal code that allows judges to draw upon their personal knowledge when adjudicating cases.
"More and more, the Iranian judiciary is departing from any recognized form of due process, issuing arbitrary judgments based on vague, open-ended laws," said Rhodes. "Laws and evidence are increasingly irrelevant and unrelated to judicial outcomes in Iran."
Another Christian pastor, 33-year-old Behrouz Sadegh-Khanjani, is facing a possible indictment for apostasy in the southern city of Shiraz.
Referring to Nadarkhani and Sadegh-Khanjani's cases, Firouz Sadegh-Khanjani, brother of Behrouz and member of the Church of Iran's Executive Council, told the Campaign, "This is part of a greater trend of persecution against Christians."
"My brother was arrested in June 2010. Eight members of his congregation including his wife were arrested two days later but were eventually released," Firouz Khanjani told the Campaign. "For several months he was in solitary confinement; we had no word from him and he had no contact with his lawyer. He has been moved to [prison] but we worry about the type of pressure he was under while in solitary confinement."
After his release from solitary confinement, Behrouz Sadegh-Khanjani and his lawyer, Mahmoud Taravatrooy, attended one pretrial investigatory hearing [dadsara] where prosecutors sought to indict him for apostasy along with the crimes of acting against national security, propaganda against the regime, and insulting sanctities.
"We are most concerned with the apostasy charge," said Taravatrooy. "In preparing [my client's] defense, that's where most of my energy has gone, to save him from death."
According to his brother, Sadegh-Khanjani was born to Christian parents and was never a Muslim. Behrouz Sadegh-Khanjani's mother is a Christian immigrant from the Congo and his father converted before he was born.
"Technically speaking, the court should dismiss this charge," said Taravatrooy, "but the judge has to review the accusations first."
"We asked some top clerics to issue opinions on [apostasy under Islam]," Taravatrooy told the Campaign. "Four Ayatollah's [including the late Grand Ayatollah Hossein-Ali Montazeri], said that changing one's religion from Islam to one of the Abrahamic religions [including Christianity], is not construed as apostasy and [the convert] should be treated the same way as people of other religions would be."
Authorities placed Behrouz Sadegh-Khanjani under temporary detention on 6 June 2010 after he reported on a summons to the revolutionary court in Shiraz. At the time he was free on bail stemming from a December 2009 arrest. Taravatrooy told the Campaign that Sadegh-Khanjani's temporary detention order expired on 18 October 2010. "Technically he is being held illegally."
The Campaign called for the immediate release of Nadarkhani and Sadegh-Khanjani and for an end to prosecutions on the charge of apostasy, which does not appear in any Iranian laws and violates Iran's human rights obligations.
*Correction on 13 December 2010: the ages of Youcef Nadarkhani and Behrouz Sadegh-Khanjani were incorrectly stated as 32 and 35, respectively. Both men are 33 years of age.

But let's do a scorecard of this film's Good aspects, its Okay ones, the Bad… and the Ugly.
Characters! … Character is J.J. Abrams's strong suit. We knew this from LOST, where we cared deeply about them all, despite there being no sense to the story. And to be clear, Mr. Abrams did the Star Trek characters very well, too -- individually and interacting, one-on-one. Hence, no surprise, he worked the same magic here, in SW:TFA. These people were all well crafted, the actors well-directed, and I could feel them. Moreover, let there be no doubt that characters are the most important element in all types of drama, especially film. This alone made The Force Awakens worthwhile.
More on characters, below. Grade A-
(Why the A-minus? Because after all, well, it is Star Wars and Abrams had a limited character palette to work with. But he worked it well.)
Music... I listened carefully for the themes for the new characters. They were nice, but did not tug at the heart quite as powerfully as I felt the riffs for Luke and Darth and Leia, back in the 1970s. All right, I was younger then. Solid Williams. Grade A-
Well, at least it wasn't memorably awful, like the dialogue in Lucas's cringeworthy prequels. So, in fact, "serviceable" came as a huge relief. Grade B
Still, I give Mr. Abrams some credit for self-control this time. In fact, there were fewer of these self-indulgences than I feared, in SW:TFA. Just way too many. (Though I admit it was a shock to re-encounter Edna Mode from The Incredibles in this flick, doing pretty much the same work. She does get around.) C+
Mind you, I kept hoping to hear that the Republic Fleet might show up and neutralize the First Order Armada, so that our heroes could do their thing. Would that have hurt? Three extra minutes and some added battle-sizzle, while showing that the Republic and its quadrillion citizens can actually do something. Even in a supporting role?
But the damage to our notions of civilization self-confidence runs so deep that I do not blame Abrams for never thinking of it. C+
Heck, if J.J. Abrams were ever to ask my advice (and he never will), I would suggest a plot device of a villain seeking to technologize access to the Force! How much more interesting that would be, than just inserting another Sauron-style emperor and another Darth Vader wannabee.
But Star Wars is not science fiction! It is fantasy of the old school: Good and Evil are archetypes of utter simplicity. Pure light versus pure dark. Sweet folk versus red-glowing eyes. Pretty=good and ugly=evil. The Force Awakens does all this about as well as other flicks that wallow fantasy-obsessions like "long-ago" lords and mages and mystical mumbo, e.g. Tolkien, except that in Star Wars the wizard wands are light sabers.
Oh, this could have been science fiction. But hey, that boat sailed long ago and so let's take the franchise for what it is. And heck, why deny myself a bona fide pleasure? I can enjoy a good fantasy wallow. Grade___ pass.
(Oh, can you dig it? In this photo I'm wearing the crew jacket from Kevin Costner's The Postman flick. Don't get me started on THAT!)
... all of it culminating with a little ship diving or shooting into a big ship to blow it up from the inside.
Really? Must you? Sure, character is more important than plot. Still, plotting matters. And here TFA gets a Grade D+
There were moments, alas, when I just had to fiercely quash all critical faculties in order to stay in the spirit of the film. I succeeded! (I get plenty of practice, alack.) But these tucked-away moments did come to mind, later.
One was an embarrassing scene in the rebel base -- (will we ever see Leia actually use some force?) -- when some rebel warrior asks incredulously (I paraphrase) "But... but... isn't this just another damn Death Star?"
To which came the lame answer - delivered in a voice that I swear sounded apologetic - "But can't you see? This one is much BIGGER!"
Seriously? The dial now goes to Eleven? Even the minor human characters are complaining and rationalizing, from inside the film itself!
Still, dang, you couldn't have given Max Von Sydow a soliloquy? Just a little one? I mean... were you aware of the fact that you were aiming a camera at ... Max... Von... Sydow?
Or like another father-son confrontation on a bridge. That wasn't a bad idea, actually, though meh-executed, deserving far better attention to masterful dialogue. At least Han could have done a remise on the most-famous line by saying: "remember your mother."
(Good death scene for Han, though.)
...okay, okay, the answer to that question, I already know.
Know it, so do you.
Obvious -- and sad -- it is.
Never, will they demand better.
And Finn. And all the women in my life vote for Oscar Isaac's character "Poe" who has the "force" of enviable masculinity. As I said, J.J. Abrams knows characters! He is brilliant with characters, as George Lucas was brilliant with visuals. And yet, as Clint Eastwood said - so-wisely - in Magnum Force: "A man's got to know his limitations."
Clearly, J.J. Abrams knows this (Lucas did not.) Hence Abrams hired Laurence Kasden to work magic. And it worked, somewhat. Extra credit points for good intentions.
I'll not bother railing against this one — nor shouting joy, as I did after the anomalously wonderful Empire Strikes Back. This newest installment is a decent-entertaining flick, benefiting from near complete absence of earlier Lucasian poisons. A solid, fun, self-indulgent and utterly repetitive-cliched good investment of twenty bucks and a couple of hours of lifespan. I regret nothing…

the biggest surprise of the Haikou World Open so far is that there haven't been
any surprises.

There's a new strain of ransomware to put on your radar.
This latest one was discovered by researchers working from SentinelLabs and it has been dubbed Nefilim.
Based on the initial research, it seems to share significant portions of its code base with an older strain, Nemty 2.5.
The two key differences between the two strains are as follows:
- Nefilim's code does not contain the Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) found in Nemty 2.5
- Nefilim relies on email communication to arrange ransom payment, rather than routing those through the TOR browser.
The researchers spotted Nefilim in the wild at the end of February of this year (2020). At this point, it's unclear exactly how the malware is being distributed. The best guess at this point is that the malware is being spread via exposed Remote Desktop Services. However, the malware winds up on a target system.
When it does its work and infects the files on the compromised computer, the victim will see the following note:
"A large amount of your private files have been extracted and is kept in a secure location. If you do not contact us in seven working days of the breach we will start leaking the data. After you contact us we will provide you proof that your files have been extracted."
This tactic is becoming increasingly common, and as we've seen in recent months, it's not an idle threat. Worse is that based on the analysis of the code to this point, Nefilim is secure. That means that at present, there's no free way to recover your files once they have been encrypted.
While this strain isn't especially widespread at this point, it's a legitimate threat. It would be a grave mistake to ignore it.

They are both amazing. It's as simple as that. They are two of the best MGs ever released. They are both kits that you should own if you are into Gunpla^^ The Nu Ver.Ka is just newer and a little more impressive here and there. And the Stein doesn't have the ridiculous amout of stickers that the regular Sinanju has so that is a big plus as well. Build experience was awesome with both of them. The Sinanju isn't exactly complicated to build but it does have a lot of smaller pieces. And the Nu is just brand new, it has a lot of new stuff in it's design. As for decals, the Nu comes with waterslides which is awesome. And you put silver foilstickers under the psychoframe pieces which look really cool. Can't say much about the Stein in that regard of course. But it does also come with waterslide decals as far as I know. I can't say much about the looks of the Stein but the Nu looks really freaking awesome on my shelf! It comes with a stand which you can attatch the funnels to REALLY damn well! I'd say get both. Doesn't really matter which one you buy first because they are both REALLY amazing kits! |
I saw the rrobbert184 review and I'll check out the Prime review. Just looking for more input beyond just the 2 ppl really.
I already have the first Sinanju that (still incomplete), but before I tackle that monster I want to get another kit completed to 'work out the kinks' |
Or you can go for one of the new cheaper MGs from AGE or Wing |
I'd prefer to pick up the MG. I think the plastic used to mold the HG kits is different from the MG ones. I remember it being a bit more brittle and prone to discoloring to white when I cut it. However, I might be imagining things or my memory is bad
If you want to get into MG, why not go for the MG's from your favorite series? Many of us who are from the US started with Gundam Wing so the current line of "EW" Master Grade lines are the choice to go for. I'm personally a fan of Wing, 00, and Age so I only get the MG's from those series and so far I've had a blast! They're really good. I especially like 00 quite a bit as many can tell you and the MG's are awesome. I really like the LED gimmick that you can optionally purchase. If you want a decent MG to start with, go with MG Age-1 Normal. Its inner frame isn't detailed, but it still features the MG spirit. 00 MG's on the other hand are very detailed and has lots of parts. =D I guess if it was up to me, I would start with MG Exia. If you can, get the Ignition Mode version. |
I have quite a few kits on hand but their getting up there in age. I started the whole gunpla thing in 06. I have mostly MG kits. Turn A, AEUG MKII, Strike Freedom FB, Hi Nu, Unicorn, Sinanju, etc, I even have PG Strike Freedom, 00, Strike Rouge and Strike. Their just sitting in a closet waiting to get finalized. I'm even thinking about selling a few since their still waiting in my closet.
I'm having a DIY toy thing at my house and it might be a good opportunity to pick gunpla back up. I kind of want a good build to do when my guests are over but I don't want to start back up with one of my PG kits. I want to stay away from the HG kits vs an MG kit for the previous reasons. I thought one of the new releases like Sinanju Stein or Nu ver. ka might get me back into it. |
Simply picking any model that you like is what I'd say, no point getting something just to test the water especially with a MG unless you have the money and time to blow on it. Otherwise go for whatever one you like between the Stein and Nu, it's not really hard to make em anyway. My first gunpla was Sinanju, tricky but not hard. |
@rageous Focus on what you like. So long as your interest is there, you'll improve. Almost anything can be repaired with putty, and paint, in the end. Man, I want my casting stuff. The site I ordered from, has been taking their sweet time. Just a concept at the moment but: http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w...ps354e9641.jpghttp://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w...psdf77450d.jpg Age 1 double spallow? |
Is anyone actually going to get the MG Aile Strike HD Ver.?
Do you think that we'll see an HD Ver. for Freedom and Strike Freedom as well? If I do get into the Seed kits, I think I'll just get: Aile Strike HD Ver. x3 Launcher/Sword pack HD Ver. x1 Strike Rouge HD Ver. x1 Freedom HD Ver. x1 Strike Freedom HD Ver. x1 IMO, those are the mains from Seed and Seed Destiny since they're the ones piloted by Kira, the main guy from Seed. |
^ well Id get it considering since getting the Aegis it prompted me to get the other 3, it seems it will be released with the launching base stand again... that makes me very happy and nostalgic. I'd definitely get the launcher and sword packs too.
I'm guessing you'd display it as all 3? why not as perfect strike? @Appel You might have sold me on the MG Nu...! (ps long time :P ) |
What Kira piloted, unless I'm mistaken: GAT-X105 Strike Gundam GAT-X105+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Gundam GAT-X105+AQM/E-X02 Sword Strike Gundam GAT-X105+AQM/E-X03 Launcher Strike Gundam GAT-X105+P202QX Strike Gundam IWSP MBF-02 Strike Rouge MBF-02+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Rouge ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom Gundam So those are the MG's that I'd like to see Bandai do a Remaster HD ver. for.. GAT-X105 Strike Gundam GAT-X105+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Gundam GAT-X105+AQM/E-X02 Sword Strike Gundam GAT-X105+AQM/E-X03 Launcher Strike Gundam GAT-X105+P202QX Strike Gundam IWSP MBF-02 Strike Rouge MBF-02+AQM/E-X01 Aile Strike Rouge These would be reusing the upcoming Aile Strike Gundam MG frame, add parts, changing colors, adding accessories. ZGMF-X10A Freedom Gundam ZGMF-X20A Strike Freedom Gundam Those would be the ones that would need total new molds. |
I buy like that to prevent myself from going crazy and buying too many kits. I think it's good to set limits and goals so you don't end up spending too much money. I mean this is only a hobby and hobbies are meant to last a few years.
But alas... You have your way of buying certain models and in some regard you too have rules which in your case is to buy whatever. I'm just saying you need to set goals. |
Sinaju Stien finally came in the mail. Thing looks awesome. I'm almost finished with Tallgeese and already finished OYW so now I just have to decide between SS, Shin M. Zaku 2.0 and Khsatriya HG for my next build.
As far as Strike HD, it's incredibly unlikely I will get it. I don't like the Designs form SEED* because of the huge and ugly backpacks, Strike being the worst offender. I already bought Strike RG so I have a version already. *Blitz not included, I love the Blitz. |
You know, I actually have to wonder how many master grades we'll get from Destiny. Destiny already has a large number of them, and three of the six remaining Gundams are transformables that do not belong to a main character. That leaves us three new ones and the Blast Impulse, and I don't see the Akatsuki getting one due to it being way too pricey with all that gold.
I suspect the main push will be in the real grade line for the new Destiny Remaster. I'd love to be wrong and see the Gaia Chaos and Abyss get master grades though. Thinking about it, it is entirely possible we'll see a few more master grades from Seed. Freedom is in Destiny for a very long time after all, and a Providence could probably share some of its frame with a Legend Gundam later on. |
@Suiton not sure He piloted using the IWSP.
U'd be missing out if they did a remaster of the Noir... though i dont think its necessary? |
Strike Noir is new enough (and still holds up perfectly fine even in this day) that it does not need a new kit |

I've seen these tables around the Internet for awhile and I loooove them! I would probably put two in my living room if there were space for them. I've seen painted and stained versions. But the one I'm hacking is from West Elm. I love it so much, from the stump, to the rug to the cool chair. {Doesn't it look a lot like an "inspiration" chair from my classifieds search?}
I kept an eye out for tree stumps for
So that's why it took so long, trying to make sure it was tall enough, wide enough, old enough, but not too old or too short, etc.
Clean'er up! Z and I sprayed pest control all over it for several days {some homemade stuff I whipped up, another post, for another day.} We left it outside to try while it simultaneously repelled pests. Then I washed it down to remove any residue.Second
The sides were the easy part, I just used a palm sander and some 80 grit sandpaper, then 180, then 320. Unfortunately, the top was cut a little uneven. I don't have a circular sanded so I improvised. I added a sanding disk to my drill and it worked like a charm. Isn't she so pretty! Love, love the gray undertones in the worn wood!Third
I used a homemade stain made from White Distilled Vinegar and Steel Wool pad. Just let the mixture sit for a couple days outside, it doesn't smell pretty. I didn't measure, I just stuffed a steel wool pad into the bottom half of my vinegar bottle (bottle was .5 gallon.)
Wearing gloves, I ragged the mixture on, moving in the direction of the wood grain.You can see what it looks like, as I'm wiping, the color is forming. The stain is a stinky, gray liquid. It's very easy to work with, easier than "real" stains, I think. When dry it looked like this. I was kind of shocked. I thought it would be a lot grayer in color. So, I started Googling and found this stain reacts differently with different trees. {whoops!}
I have no idea what tree my stump was from.
But the stain turned sort of reddish.
Third & Fourth {again!}
I lived with it for 1 whole day, before I made a new stain.This time I used Apple Cider Vinegar, the all knowing Internet said it would turn the wood grayish. I used the same process, just threw the wool right in the vinegar, sanded the stump super lightly, and reapplied the mixture.
You can see where I made hash marks on the stump there's almost a line down the middle, showing you the different colors that the 2 stains turn. Isn't it funny that the white vinegar turns reddish and the red vinegar turns wood gray?
I was kinda petrified to do the new stain right on top of the old, but I figured could always sand it. {again} The new color is just perfect, a tan and gray mixture! I am so glad I tried again.
Since I was already playing around with it, I tried two more experiments staining the wood.
- I also sprayed some clear sealer on, just to see what would happen. It made the wood look a little yellow.
- I also brewed some Tea to stain the wood. Tea has tannic acid in it, a chemical that reacts with the vinegar.
- I read a few different tutorials and some said to apply the tea 1st, let it dry, then brush on the vinegar; while others said to do the opposite.
- I just brushed some tea over the vinegar that I had put on the stump days before. I was shocked how dark it tuned! I tried to give you guys a picture of the different results.
Thanks for checking out my new table!! Have you guys made one of these? Are you planning to now that you've seen my beauty? lol I wouldn't blame you cuz I love it!
Disclaimers: I've heard this stain will keep long term. That's awesome, but I probably wouldn't keep it a plastic bottle, like the one I used to mix my stain. Make sure you poke a hole in the lid, to let the fumes escape! As always, I'm telling you all how I did this project, but I'm not a furniture professional or a scientist- so wear gloves and follow along at your own risk. Although I didn't have any problems and haven't heard of anyone having them either.
I'm also linked up here.

Bitcoin may be hard to use even with consumer-friendly tools, while running its core infrastructure is even harder. However, this isn't stopping efforts to change that. The global, volunteer developer group behind the most popular implementation of the software, Bitcoin Core, is soon to debut its 17th major software release, one which puts to code a number of highly-anticipated changes. Of particular emphasis is improving the software's default wallet, where user's bitcoin private keys are stored.
Perhaps the most interesting update is the debut of a new "language," initially proposed by prominent bitcoin contributor Pieter Wuille, known for designing some of the most radical changes to bitcoin in recent years (including Segregated Witness, which helped chip away at bitcoin's scalability problem last year).
The idea behind the new language is to add important extra information to keys. Or, as Bitcoin Core contributor Andrew Chow put it, it provides a "sane" alternative to the problematic "account" system that was recently ripped out of the software. Simply put, it allows users to name their different accounts. Like labeling one "donations" and another "savings."
One other significant use case of the language is to make it easier to move keys from one wallet to another. As it stands, if a user tries to move a key from one wallet to another, they might lose some of the information about how the coins can be unlocked and sent to someone else.
That's not a big problem for many transactions. After all, most transactions have pretty simple instructions: the owner must sign the transaction with a secret key, proving the coins are really theirs. But that's not true for every transaction. For example, multi-signature transactions require more than one person to approve any spending.
Lightning transactions, a faster and more scalable type of payment that's still in its infancy, are perhaps the most exciting example of this.
With this type of transaction becoming more common (lightning is thought to be the best way for the platform to scale to millions of users), the new language aims to ensure crucial information isn't lost more regularly.
With this in mind, Wuille's new language aims to tags each key in bitcoin (both public and private) with a "label" that describes what can unlock it, "changing the way we think about wallets," Chaincode engineer John Newbery said in a talk describing the upcoming release.
To be clear, though, this release is just a small step, the first code change to put this into practice, Newbery said. But developers anticipate the language will weave its way through the codebase in future software releases.
Other changes in the latest release are iterative, first steps that developers hope will lead to something more.
Partially Signed Bitcoin Transactions (PSBT) are another highly-anticipated change that fits the bill, coded up by Chow. (PSBT is a new format for transactions that are not fully signed yet that can be passed around until finally broadcast.)
This all sounds rather technical, but the thinking here is actually rather forward-looking, and could have an impact on a wide range of users.
Already, there are all sorts of hardware wallets on the market, small mechanical devices that are considered one of the safest ways of storing bitcoin, since it moves the keys that unlock them offline so they can't be stolen by way of an internet connection.
But each hardware wallet – including Trezor, Ledger, and so forth – is kind of off in its own little world when it comes to how it engages with the software. In short, they aren't compatible with all software wallets at once.
One of the easiest ways to use a hardware wallet is to leave it offline, but then connect it to a software wallet on a mobile device that makes it easy to actually make transactions.
It's cool that this is possible – to get the security of hardware wallet but the convenience of a software wallet at the same time. The problem is that usually each hardware wallet only includes support for one or two software wallets. Trezor only supports the softwaare wallet Electrum, for instance. They can't connect the Trezor to Bitcoin Core or whatever other software they want to connect to.
And users have long been complaining about how annoying this is. BIP 174 offers away around that. It's a standard that every wallet can use.
Though, of course, it depends on whether wallets actually indeed choose to use it. The prospects are looking optimistic so far. Even though the code isn't officially out yet, it's attracted much enthusiasm, with one hardware wallet, coldcardwallet implementing the transaction signing method already.
As wallets pick up this standard, it will make Bitcoin Core in particular a bit easier to use because hardware wallets will easily be able to connect to the software.
"PSBT will enable Bitcoin Core to more easily support hardware wallets and have better offline, airgapped wallet setups. I'm actually working on hardware wallet support for Bitcoin Core by using PSBT," Chow told CoinDesk, going as far as to argue that Bitcoin Core is a much safer way to use bitcoin than other software wallets.
"[SPV wallets] carry privacy and potentially security risks as they are trusting a third party to do the blockchain verification. Once Bitcoin Core supports hardware wallets, users can use Bitcoin Core instead, and because it is a full node, the user does not need to trust a third party that the everything has been verified correctly," he said.
But the code change opens up a lot of options, even potentially boosting bitcoin smart contracts and privacy features. "PSBT also makes things like multisigs and CoinJoins easier to do," Chow continued.
To this end, one user tweeted: "Excited to see all the interesting ways BIP174 will be used."
And more
These are a couple of the changes developers are most excited about, but there are dozens of other upgrades rolled into the release. One is a "dynamic wallet creation" feature.
"A few releases ago, we introduced the ability to use multiple wallets in Bitcoin Core. However that required starting Bitcoin Core configured for multiple wallets. Now, we can load, unload, and create wallets when the software is already running," Chow said.
Meanwhile, you might have heard of Coin Selection, an improved way of plucking up the coins go into a transaction. It's so much better than the old algorithm that it greatly improves bitcoin's scalability as a whole, even cutting fees.
Though the main code for the new feature was already added about six months ago, the algorithm is getting a small privacy boost in the 17th release.
That still doesn't cover everything. The rest of the changes are to be described in more detail in the final release notes, which will be released at the same time as the final, tested code.
These might seem like small changes. Especially since few people use bitcoin and even fewer use Bitcoin Core. And there's no question why. Bitcoin's software takes up nearly 200 GB, about the size of a laptop. Downloading it and using it is a far cry from downloading and setting up the Venmo app on a smartphone in matter of minutes.
But the goal with these major code changes is to eventually get the code to the point where it's not such a pain to set up, so maybe one day anyone who wants to utilize the full advantages of bitcoin can do so.

The Art of Deception
Fact is no longer a factor. As technology has developed, websites like YouTube and Vimeo make it possible for anyone to broadcast information, even if the information they express is based on lies.
In an academic environment, a paper must have detailed references according to a set of university standards, but in a film, anything goes.
The Art of Deception is an explanation of how a documentary is constructed to communicate truth, brainwash the audience and push an agenda.
The Art of Deception explains the way the media has become a puppet for certain people. The US government used Kony 2012, or the invisible children, as a puppet to invade Uganda after they discovered huge amounts of untapped oil. This is explained in great detail in the documentary.
The Illuminati used Zeitgeist as a puppet to destroy religion and to scare the population about their own existence. Sounds far fetched, right?
