"SHOW ME THE MONEY", BOYS.........CEO David J. Stern of the David J. Stern Law Ofice and CEO Steve D. Fredrickson of Portfolio Recovery Associates have had Civil Complaints filed against them for fraud, libel and slander and illegal debt collection, respectively, in Broward County Civil Court, Sarasota County Civil Court and NOW one consolidated case of five United States District Court cases in Southern California that had oginated in Florida.
David J. Stern and his Law Office sold their "Biz Plan" to NASDAQ investors stating that a foreclosure law office could make $$$ Millions by bidding on bundled failed mortgages from Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Bank America and Wells Fargo among others, then foreclose on the mortgages at $1,200 a pop and do volume "Biz" at break neck speed through what turned out to be illegal practices like "Robo Signing".
Steve D. Fredrickson president and CEO of Portfolio Recovery Associates sold his "Biz Plan" to NASDAQ investors stating, in his most recent Securiteis and Exchange Commission Report (SEC), that a collection agency could make $$$ Millions by buying "bundled old bad debt" and accounts discharged by Federal Bankruptcy from banks like Wells Fargo and Bank America, sound familiar.
It is illegal to attempt to collect on accounts discharged by Federal Bankruptcy Courts and most of the bundled dated bad debt of Portfolio Recovery Associates has gone way past individual states statue of limitation on time to collect.
UPDATE.....NYT Feb. 1st, 2012, F.T.C. Fines Debt Collector $2.5 Million. The Federal Trade Commission that it would continue to crack down on debt collectors who harass consumers for money they may not even be legally obligated to pay. The F.T.C. said that Asset Acceptance had agreed to pay a $2.5 million civil penalty to settle charges that the company deceived consumers when trying to collect "old bad debt" and accounts discharged by Federal Bankruptcy. This is the exact same business plan that Steve D. Fredrickson president and CEO of Portfolio Recovery Associates sold his investors on NASDAQ.
David J. Stern, the Florida foreclosure lawyer who profited off the state's housing bust before losing his biggest clients Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, was sued by a partner company that claims it was damaged by Stern's (illegal) foreclosure practices for FRAUD.
DJSP Enterprises Inc. (DJSP), which took on the non-legal foreclosure-processing services of Stern's law firm and depended on his referrals, said in a copy of a complaint included in a regulatory filing dated Jan. 3 that Stern concealed his business was "systematically engaging in unlawful and fraudulent conduct" in foreclosures.
Those practices jeopardized Stern's relationships with his biggest clients, including banks and government mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the viability of his law firm and DJSP, according to the complaint. DJSP said the complaint was filed January 3rd, 2012 in Broward County, Florida, MORE FROM THIS SOURCE…

RISKY BUSINESS…Steve D. Fredrickson and Portfolio Recovery Associates Sold His "Biz Plan" to NASDAQ Investors Just Like Foreclosure King David J. Stern Did.
Steve D. Fredrickson president (bald man in center- photo above) and Portfolio Recovery Associates are under attack by the FCC, multiple Federal Lawsuits and a Class Action Lawsuit, their SEC report indicates multiple problems with negative publicity and FCC recommend enforcement actions. The Portfolio Recovery Associates stock (PRAA) as traded on NASDAQ has dropped from a high of $91.00 to a low of $56.00 during 2011.
BOTTOM FEEDERS like Steve D. Fredrickson CEO of Portfolio Recovery Associates and David J. Stern of the Stern Law Office made their $$$ Millions off the misery of others. Steve D. Fredrickson and Portfolio Recovery Associates is another house of cards just like the Stern Law Office Foreclosure Scam.

If your lawn is small and also the farthest edge is about 30 to 35 feet away away from nearest electrical power you can very well go for an lawn mower reviews.
And when we're on the main topics saving fuel, remember to car pool when ever you have a chance and also start scaling down your lawn every 14 days instead each week. You may have may want to keep your lawn nicely cut down, letting it go the extra week between mows shouldn't customize appearance a lot. Utilizing a manual best push mower like those more frequently employed many, several years ago will be an aid to save becoming green even lots more. You should be able to pick one up in community hardware websotre.
Enjoy a few of nuts whenever a craving traffic! Nuts contain protein and fats which are for keeping your body healthy and strong. They also contain fiber which feel full for a number of years after ingesting them. Include a sprinkling of walnuts on the salad, or pop several in your mouth as you watch flat screen tv.
When it appears to lawn care equipment, there is one you must get their hands on and that is edge cutters. This type of apparatus will work your tool to perform the finishing touches on your lawn. It's like adding perfection an attractively mowed sod.
At Huntsville we took Highway 19 east towards Crockett and then Highway 190 east towards Livingston. Highway 190 is a country, 2-lane road that eventually turns in to a 4-lane streets. This area should be the Trailer Capital because raggedy trailers to trailers modified seem like a log cabin littered the countryside. Most lawns demand best lawn mower support keep the yard from becoming pasture solid ground. Horses, cattle and farm land spring up intermittently once we roll down 190. Locate myself seeking "for sale" signs. It's peaceful proper. Few cars or bikes pass our organization.
You certainly don't to help introduce a controversial topic and then not state your own opinion. Discussing and even sympathizing with both sides is good, but a great opinion of your family. You don't must agree with everyone. Just back the opinion with facts or reasons why you believe the following.
For people large lawns or associated with trees and rocks to safely move around, the commercial mower may emerge as best tool. They can help an individual the task finished more almost instantly. For large flat lawns, another potential model to contemplate are zero turn lawn mowers, while they can turn quickly on a small rotation area plus they also can undergo large areas in short enough time.

Parish MagazinePrint This Page
September 2017
The Vicar writesJeremy Fletcher
I write this on the day GCSE results have been announced. More than one of my friends has commented that we still think of them as O Levels, which means we took ours before 1988. I am so old that I not only took O Levels but taught them too. That confusion has perhaps been enhanced by the new numbering of results, like they used to be up to 1975, even if a 9 is a 1 and a 1 a 9 (younger readers might need help here).
What hasn't changed is the sense of this time of year being about many more new beginnings than January. Everyone at school, college or university is starting something different. Even those of us in the same role at the same place are, hopefully returning refreshed and ready to go after the change of gear in August. Whether we are clutching results which have set the course of the next term, wondering what our new class will be like, or are in the afterglow of a great holiday, September brings new things.
I am delighted that we have much to look forward to at Hampstead Parish Church. Well mark the beginning of the academic year with a Blessing of the Backpacks on Sunday September 10th, at the 10.30 Eucharist. Thats not just for school pupils: anyone beginning a new term can bring something which symbolises it for them. Well pray a blessing on each of us, that we may be a blessing wherever we are. On Sunday September 24 we will celebrate Harvest Festival at the 10.30 service. Junior Church will be raising funds to support the amazing Send A Cow charity.
On Friday October 13 at 6 pm we will have a launch evening for our Community Sponsorship of a Refugee Family. Sheena's article later in the Magazine gives more details about what we hope to do. We know that it will be complicated, and Im excited about what might happen. Similarly, we will be hosting the Saturday night Camden Cold Weather Shelter from Saturday November 11. There will be practical ways to help in these two ways of welcoming the stranger and offering radical hospitality. Keep an eye on the notices.
A new musical term begins too. Our young people will be singing at Greenwich on September 3, and the Hampstead term begins on the 10th. Our Director of Music, James Sherlock, has begun his new life studying orchestral conducting in Finland. Well still see James for certain events up to December, but we are in a vacancy, and will be planning to appoint a new Director of Music as soon as possible: its likely to be after Christmas at the earliest.
We look forward to welcoming the Bishop of Edmonton on Sunday November 5 at 10.30 for a service of Confirmation: that is there are any people to be confirmed. If you would like to be confirmed (and baptised if you have not been) please contact me as soon as possible so we can arrange preparation. Teenagers and adults are welcome: we generally have separate preparation groups. Its immensely encouraging when people make a profession of their Christian faith. A new start indeed.
Happy New Year!

I am sure by now you already Know of Keaton Jones. He's the little boy who said he was bullied at school in a video that went viral. All kinds of celebs rallied around him on social media, including Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown and others.
After Keaton received that support, his mom Kimberly was seen with a Confederate flag and was accused of being a racist. (She said the photos were supposed to be a joke.) On top of that, it seems like Kimberly was trying to use the crowdfunding money that was set up for Keaton on herself. The campaign has been halted as a result.
But on Instagram, T.I. said that he still supports the little boy, regardless of what his mother has been accused of.
View this post on Instagram
Ok… So it seems as though we were somewhat mislead by what we saw yesterday in regards to Keaton. Now while I still stand by initial standpoint whole heartedly,I also believe in the laws of karma & reciprocity. I've always heard "What make ya laugh'll make ya cry." I'm thinkin this is a true example of that. But I STILL support Lil dude… even IF he's truly being given a taste of his own meds because when it's all said & done… while his family is spewing hatred around him… he himself will be able to speak from experience how much LOVE was shown to him on the gram by the very ones he's been taught to DISPISE!!! That's how we unlearn racism. THAT DONT MEAN GO DONATE NO MONEY THO!!!! I'm completely against ALL THAT🙅🏽♂!!!!✊🏻✊🏽✊🏾✊🏼✊🏿

The War Briefing
Episode Info
Award winning Frontline producer Marcela Gaviria teams with correspondent Martin Smith to offer this sobering look at the many trials and tribulations that face President-elect Barack Obama as he prepares to take office and contend some of the most formidable challenges ever to face a first-term president. With wars raging on two fronts, an overstretched military on the verge of collapse, a newly emboldened Taliban, and a reconstituted Al Queda operating safely in the lawless tribal areas of Pakistan, how exactly is President Obama supposed to fight the war on terror while patching up the US economy? At a time when some troops in Afghanistan are on their fifth deployment, we stand at a point where the Taliban and Al Queda can launch attacks from insurgent safe havens in Pakistan. While American Special Forces have begun launching ground attacks on these tribal areas, they have done so without the permission or consent of the Pakistani government, in turn fueling tensions with the country's army and new civilian leaders. Are there really any workable solutions to these problems, and, if not, how can we hope to achieve peace while still ensuring the safety of Americans both at home and abroad? These are but a few of the issues that President Obama will have to address after he is sworn in on January 20, 2009; should he fail to address them with the greatest of caution, it could spell tragedy for the entire global community.

A few weeks ago, I had applied for a 2 week travel writing mentorship to the Balkans through World Nomads Insurance and the winner was announced the other week. For some reason I just had this really good feeling that I was going to get the mentorship, despite the low odds (over 8,000 entries!). However, I did not win one of the coveted spots. I wasn't even on the short list. Womp womp.
However, I'm not going to let that discourage me! I'm still interested in travel writing and will have to find a different avenue and do some more research. I found out this week that I have 3 days off for the July 4th week (hallelujah!), so I really want to go somewhere for a week. Honestly, I've been craving a real travel vacation since my honeymoon last year and have been so busy with work/life that I've just been stuck. In fact, my husband and I had planned on taking a 2 week trip somewhere to celebrate our 1 year anniversary, but my work schedule changed and we will have to put it on hold. Due to his work schedule, I'm not sure if he will be able to go with me in July, but fingers crossed!
I can't decide if I want to go to the mountains, go to the beach, go somewhere new in the states, or go somewhere overseas. I keep changing my mind! SO my ask of my readers is to tell me your favorite places to go around the world that I could do in a week without a TON of travel time. For example, Asia and Australia are probably not going to ideal for this trip. I live in Atlanta, so I do have a lot of options with hopefully some affordability!
Also, I follow a lot of photographers and travel Instagrams, so if you like to travel as much as I do check out some of my favs: cabinlove, yournextbucketlist, stayandwander, fursty (Dylan Furst), welivetoexplore, iceland.wonder, and theoriginal10cent (Lori Andrews). There are of course a ton more that are amazing, so if you don't already…check out the different Instagram pages and explore the far reaches of the world with just your fingertips! If interested, you can follow me at iveysm14 on Instagram.
Happy exploring, Readers!
*Please note, I do not get any endorsements or acknowledgements from the Instagrams I listed. I just like their pages!*

John started his musical life as a drummer before the age of ten, but through the encouragement of "his poor mother," took up the quieter acoustic guitar in his teens. In high school John met a banjo player and was encouraged to try the fiddle. He was quickly hooked, and by the age of 20 began playing his "rhythmic" style of fiddling for contra dances around New York and New Jersey.

Maa ladoo
There is a link between tamil families and sweets. For every family, there is a traditional sweet that is made for every special occasion and is the gold standard for that family. When a guy in that family gets engaged, the bride's family has to prepare the sweet (or procure it from a good source) for the betrothal ceremony. The preparation will be subject to extensive critique at the end of the day (not usually in front of the bride's family, thankfully). The complicated part of this protocol is that the traditional sweet is never asked for openly in Indian 'arranged marriages'. One has to make assumptions based on whether the family is from Tanjore, Thirunelveli etc. For people, unfamiliar with tamil brahmin groups, most people originate from Tanjore, Thirunelveli and Palghat.
My marriage had this usual dilemma on what the guy's family sweet would be. S, being from Thirunelveli, it was decided that it should be Maa ladoo . It turned out to be a right guess, that my dad later confirmed with someone in S's family. My family is a rava ladoo family but our family sweet was boondi ladoos. Notice how complicated things are and how sweets are in-grained into life of Indians. My mom was not sure whether the ladoos were to be made with green gram, or dalia or yellow moong dal. We safely bought it from Krishna Sweets, who have the reputation for tasty sweets. Whether they lived upto S's family standards, is not known. Mainly because S feigns selective amnesia as to what happened when the sweet was tasted later on.
Anyway, this recipe comes from my MIL herself. I like rava ladoo but I have acquired a taste for Maa ladoo as well. And oh, the maa stands for 'maavu' made with powdered dalia.
Maa ladoo
1 cup puffed chana dal or dalia
1 cup sugar
4-5 T broken cashewnuts
5-6 elaichi
1/2 cup to 1 cup melted ghee , as needed
Dry roast dal until fragrant and warmed through. It should not change color. Add the dal, sugar and elaichi to a food processor and process until powdered fine. It would do good to pass it through a sieve once or twice. Heat 2 T of ghee and roast cashew until golden brown. Add to the powder. Add melted ghee as needed to make rounds from the powder but not so much to make it oily or soggy.
This sweet is especially nutritious for children since dalia is considered easy to digest and helps to increase bone density and promote weight gain.

I like maa ladoo - especially the crunchy cashew nut pieces! :) It's so ridiculously simple to make, isnt it? My mother makes them sort of bite-sized or there's every chance of some greedy person (wonder who that could be...) choking to death on a large ladoo! ;)ReplyDelete
ahh... that brings some plesant memories. In Tirunelveli ( mostly the non-brahmin groups) also call them..nei urundai (as in Ghee ladoo, but not using the word ladoo), as the ghee is used in copious amts to bind the dalia/sugar combo.ReplyDelete
great post!
Hi Mika,ReplyDelete
Maavo ladoo looks yummy.
My grandmom makes this .
Thanks for sharing,

"Turkey, Cyprus, United Arab Emirates, Israel and Italy are included in the list of the most popular destinations for the holiday period", - reports the Association of Tour Operators of Russia (ATOR) with reference to the players of the tourism market.
In the top list of foreign destinations for school holidays are present both European countries (where excursion tours are in demand) and warm destinations, including long range destinations. "In whole, the TOP 5 of the most popular destinations for the holiday period includes Turkey, Cyprus, UAE, Israel and Italy", - ATOR said.
Also, Anex Tour operator, in addition to "TOP" countries, noted the high demand for family trips to Dominican Republic, Thailand, Vietnam and China on vacation dates. "But countries, where short tours with a short flight are possible, are more popular for vacations", - the company said.
In TUI company said that the audience with school-age children prefer a beach visa-free vacation in late autumn and so they have many requests for tours to Cyprus, Israel, Turkey and UAE.
In the company "Muzenidis Travel" noted that vacations in schools are scheduled on different dates, so there is interest in programs for a request with a flexible choice of dates of arrival. Visa-free Georgia and Cyprus also found themselves in the top requests of the company.
According to experts, the peak of sales for school holidays is coming. "The peak of sales is not passed. According to experience, short holidays are booked often on the eve of departure. The tourists often fly to countries where there are free places and do not look at the cost ", - explained the Director of the marketing, sales and agency department of ICS Travel Group tour operator Valeria Romanenkova.
In NTK Intourist and TUI Russia companies reported, that the sales volumes for autumn school holidays doubled in comparison with the same period of the last year. In ICS Travel Group "the increase of tourist amounted 25%".

After a long, hot, dry summer, rain is on the way to southern Saskatchewan.
But it isn't clear how much precipitation is expected as the cloud patterns keep moving further south to the U.S. border.
"I don't have a definite answer for you, this is really a wait and see game," Environment Canada's Natalie Hasell explained.
Initially, the forecast called for five to ten millimetres to fall in and around Regina beginning Wednesday afternoon and through into Thursday.
How much will fall it will likely be a relief to many.
The dry conditions have not only caused a problem for farmers, particularly in the southwest, but ground shifting has led meter boxes to pull away from houses in Regina, a problem SaskPower has been dealing with since July.
The rain likely won't be enough to have an impact on the wildfires burning in northern Saskatchewan nor dissipate the smoke that is blanketing much of the province.
Sask. farmer welcomes the rain
Instead of singing Rain Rain Go Away, one farmer is hoping the rain will stay.
Grain farmer, John Collins said it's been a dry summer near Yorkton, where he farms, but they have had some moisture. He added he's been lucky with his crop.
"We were pretty fortunate, we got some timely rain," Collins said. "We were very happy with our crop this year, it was actually surprising what we thought we were going to get — to what we've been getting."
Collins added he welcomes the rain as it will help with the winter wheat he's getting into the ground this year.
"I'm seeding into a little bit of moisture but you know we could use that moisture just for fall work to start things off for next year," he said. "If we don't get any rainfall this fall or any snow this winter we're going to be dry for next spring."
He added his crop is just about off the field for the year and hopes to have his harvest complete by the end of the week.

Boyne City, Michigan
On the shores of crystal-clear Lake Charlevoix is Boyne City, a small town that offers big things. Outdoor enthusiasts flock to Boyne City year around to take advantage of everything from snowmobiling and skiing to camping and fishing. Springtime brings on those looking for the elusive morel mushroom (a championship hunting competition takes place here). The River Walk runs along the Boyne River for those who wish to stroll or throw in a fishing line. Several festivals take place here throughout the year and reflect the community spirit and pride that make this small town such a gem. Winter brings an abundance of snow for those wanting to snowmobile, and Boyne Mountain Resort, just six miles from Boyne City, is a great place to strap on the skis or in the summer, play a round of championship golf.

Stop the Bleed: Uncontrolled bleeding is still number one cause of preventable death
At least one of the three victims in last spring's horrific stabbing on a MAX train survived when a stranger applied direct pressure to a bleeding neck wound.
A nationwide campaign seeks to teach the public what to do when confronted with uncontrolled bleeding.
Doctors at OHSU will conduct a series of 90-minute "Stop the Bleed" classes in the coming months.
"Whether it's after a car crash or it's an active shooter or a stabbing or something of that nature where the paramedics or EMS is not readily on-site, there is still an opportunity for the public to learn how to control bleeding and save lives," said OHSU trauma surgeon Dr. David Zonies.
He says applying direct pressure is the best way to start, followed by a tourniquet.
If the bleeding doesn't stop, a second tourniquet may be required, followed by packing the wound with gauze or cloth.
"Because uncontrolled bleeding is still the number one cause of preventable death after an injury in the field, what we're attempting to do is bring this type of education and training to the lay public," Zonies said.

This condition is called coccydynia. I have experience in handling these kind of problem.. You won't get this method of treatment with traditional Physio practitioner unless they identify the cause for this problem... During consultation I can explain you those...it is a chain reaction from one problem to other like you said about your foot pain..using a donut pillow is just a temporary solution through which you can sit comfortably but you have to correct the affected muscles...pls contact us @ www.myokare.com...

A group of 11 of us stayed in VillaKZ for 5 days. We had the best time and would HIGHLY recommend this property.
The villa itself is beautiful; all rooms are well sized with en suit bathroom and dressing room.
The breakfast varied daily but was always delightful with plenty of fresh fruit, something cooked, homemade jams, toast, juice and hot drinks. We had access to our own kitchen which we used to cook evening meals.
The pool is perfect and the BBQ and outside seating area mean it is it ideal for relaxing outside all day and night.
The villa is located close to a train station from which it takes about 40 mins to reach central Rome easily and cheaply (1.50 euro).
More than any of the above reasons, Nina and Sergio who own the villa were most important in making our holiday memorable, enjoyable and fun. They were incredibly welcoming and friendly offering advise on Rome attractions. They were eager to help us by giving us lifts to and from the local train station and shops. Nina gave us advise on the easiest way to arrive with public transport prior to our departure. Sergio even cooked tortellini with us one evening and they join us for a BBQ another evening. We can't thank them enough for their hospitality and we will hopefully be returning and recommending this villa to friends who are visiting Rome.

text: Conference on European Angst "We have many identities" Vladimira Dvorakova, Didier Eribon und Shermin Langhoff with students. | Photo: Caroline Lessire For two days, at the European Angst Conference, authors, academics, journalists and students grappled with populism, extremism and the rise in Euroscepticism. The meeting organized by the Goethe-Institut Brussels restores hope. Back in April 2016 when preparations began for the Conference on European Angst, the initiators would not have thought some of this year's political events possible, particularly the Brexit and the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States. But even then, last spring, they perceived a threat at the heart of Europe: a feeling of angst. More precisely, they perceived concerns that this product of peace – Europe – might disintegrate, the fear that the foundations of our coexistence could be called into question and our common values be perverted. Europe is not a melting pot The President of the Goethe-Institut, Klaus-Dieter Lehmann. | Photo: Caroline Lessire For two intensive days, the participants in the conference explored this concern, asked questions and sought answers. Europe, explained Klaus-Dieter Lehmann, the president of the Goethe-Institut, in his opening speech is not a "melting pot" that homogenizes the characteristics and contours of its individual countries. Europe is far more a "mosaic," framed by a common European responsibility and supported by a foundation made up of the rule of law and democracy. Authors, intellectuals, scientists and journalists of various nationalities met before roughly 1,000 listeners at the Bozar arts and cultural centre in Brussels for four discussion sessions. They analyzed the causes of extremism, deliberated over reasons for racism, the role of the media and over possibilities for countering extremism. Their reflections, sometimes contradictory, were supplemented and queried by comments from 42 students from all over the world who study at European universities. International students took part at the discussion. | Photo: Caroline Lessire Don't just treat the symptoms One basic tendency quickly emerged at the conference: that the achieved status quo must be called into question in order to arm ourselves against populism and right wing tendencies. Johannes Ebert held a speech at the conference. | Photo: Caroline Lessiere The French philosopher Didier Eribon, for example, bemoaned the ignorance of the "ruling class" who seem to have no interest in the lives of the people. People mistrust the established politicians and many in France voted for the Front National in order "to finally have their voices heard," according to Eribon. The Slovenian philosopher and cultural critic Slavoij Žižek stressed that we must tackle the causes of dissatisfaction, not just try to treat the symptoms. To him, the first step would be to admit that there are no clear answers to the present developments of growing Euroscepticism, populism and extremism. Freedom is not a given Béatrice Delvaux, Vladimira Dvorakova and Didier Eribon. | Photo: Caroline Lessire Freedom to express opinions about politicians or speak out about grievances without fear of repression and freedom to travel are not givens. This was emphasized by, for example, the political scientist Vladimira Dvoráková and the journalist Martin Ehl from the Czech Republic as well as the Polish journalist Warzecha. The fact that the Syrian filmmaker and actor Firas Alshater was only able to talk with the Dutch sociologist Paul Scheffer in the Bozar via a live video stream demonstrates that this freedom is not a given. Three years ago, Alshater came to Berlin as an immigrant and his present status does not allow him to leave Germany for even a short while. When moderator Isolde Charim asked him how it feels to be an immigrant in Europe, he replied, "I did not choose to be an immigrant." To start anew in a completely new place and to learn a foreign language is difficult, added Alshater, who talks about his experiences in Germany in humorous YouTube clips under the pseudonym Zukar. These videos have made him famous. Contempt for the foreign Herta Müller | Photo: Caroline Lessire At least in Berlin, Alshater can openly express how he feels and thinks. On the first evening of the conference the author Herta Müller explained the value of the right to freedom of expression. The Nobel laureate recalled the cruelties of the Romanian dictatorship, the secret services and the decades of xenophobia in Eastern Europe. "It is the xenophobia of those days that we are dealing with today," she said. "Back then, contempt for foreigners arose under the dictatorship." This is an explanation that can be sought in the near past; a past that many assumed had been overcome along with the opening of the borders. What is populism? But what is populism exactly? And what effects does it have on a society? Populists, said political scientist Vladimira Dvoráková, are those who decide who belongs and who doesn't, who is "in" and who is "out." But when society follows such divisions, it promotes exclusion and discrimination and thus would ultimately fall apart. As Dvoráková, the Turkish-British writer Elif Shafak and Žižek agreed, "We have many identities." These identities are determined by such factors as our family history, the languages we speak, our education, religion, sex, our choice of partner and much more. After many hours of intense discussion, the emotional plea expressed by one student stays in mind. She called upon the audience to be courageous, overcome fear and fight for a peaceful, united Europe.

Trading in shabby trickery, Deception proves painfully incapable of building a better suspense-movie mousetrap. In present-day Manhattan, lonely auditor Jonathan (Ewan McGregor, exhibiting an over-pronounced American accent) is shaken from his somnambulant existence by corporate lawyer Wyatt (Hugh Jackman), who treats Jonathan to tokes on a joint, a night on the town, cool new threads, and—after the two "accidentally" switch cellphones—entrée into a secret anonymous sex club for professionals known as "the list." Despite Jonathan's career as a meticulous scrutinizer of falsehoods, this insanely good fortune strikes him as plausible, which makes him as big a dolt as director Marcel Langenegger and screenwriter Mark Bomback assume their audience is, what with all the in-plain-sight clues (and unimaginative choice of title) clearly underlining the subterfuge at work. As an evil villain boasting conveniently limitless resources and a magic ability to appear and disappear on cue, Jackman flashes his thousand-watt smile and, once the transparent jig is up, delivers glares so wicked they seem to demand accompanying moustache-twirling. Wyatt's scam involves sending Jonathan on a carnal carnival ride and then both threatening to frame him for murder and blackmailing him with threats of violence against a mysterious beauty played by Michelle Williams. As the dreamy one-night stand Jonathan wants to date rather than just screw, Williams is reduced to doe eyes and a svelte figure, meaning she comes out only slightly ahead of Charlotte Rampling, appearing for a nude flash astride McGregor, and Maggie Q, whose primary purpose is to supply her token scene with a giant close-up of a bare ass. Yet as it hinges on perilous potentialities that have no chance of actually occurring, Deception is spoiled not by misogyny but monotony, such that even the clattering score—in which traditional orchestral music is overlaid with clicks, clanks, and crashes—eventually becomes merely another component in the film's cavalcade of dullness.

Modified from the E.Z.N.A.® Cycle Pure Kit, the E.Z.N.A.® MicroElute Cycle Pure Kit is specially designed to purify PCR samples with a small elution volume of 10-15 µL. Highly concentrated DNA eluates are ready to use in all subsequent applications.
- Elution volumes – 10-15µl
- Rapid – Purification of PCR products in 10 minutes
- Convenient – No phenol/chloroform extractions
- Versatile – Spin and vacuum formats available
- High-quality – DNA is suitable for downstream application
Effect of elution volume on concentration and recovery using the MicroElute® Cycle Pure Kit. Elution volume versus recovery and DNA yield; 11 µg of 3 kb PCR product was purified using the MicroElute® Cycle Pure protocol and eluted with the indicated volume of elution buffer. The standard protocol uses 15 µL elution buffer because this combines higher yield and higher concentration. The yield can be increased by increasing the elution volume.

About Me
Born and raised in New York City, I relocated to Arizona in 2004. I've lived in several different states during my life, and finally made the move to the one place I've always wanted to live. Since turning 50 in 2003 I've found myself opening my eyes to what is happening around me and in the world at large. I also find myself on a spiritual journey at the same time. This blog is more about the things I see happening today that I find downright frightening.
This is NOT the America I was born into. I miss the days when people were actually allowed to make their own decisions about things and what risks to take. Not only that, but we were healthier and happier back then also. It was actually a time of "live and let live" and tolerance and acceptance seemed to part of everyone's life.
I want the country back that I remember. There's a storm brewing that is man-made and I'm afraid the storm is NOT going to be a nice, easy one.

So glad you found the place to live where you are happiest. I am still looking for such a place and hope to find it soon.
Good for you, Lynda! Much success to you and to your blog.
May eyes be opened, ears unplugged, and minds unleashed!
Love your blogg. I hope people will think about the things you are writing about, they need to. It seems that we are under attack from our government, the drug companies, being manipulated by all and sundry. Thanks for doing the research.
Much good luck. I'll stop by frequently to see what you've written.
I s'pose you've been here? http://www.capc.co.uk/
Take a valium before looking at the 'Your Views' or 'Your Comments' pages.

Just discovered your blogsite, Lynda. It looks very nice.
LyndaF: I found your blog address on the Smokers' Club Forum and I am so glad to have found a way to correspond: Have commented back and forth on Smoking Lobby as Jsidney in La Mesa California. I am an old lady (retired aerospace engineer.. why i'm so pedantic) currently trying to persuade the La Mesa 5 person City Council that Calabasas type smoking bans suck and don't do it. Will revisit you in future.
Hello, Lynda I'm Tom you probably know me as tr1992 on smokers club. You have a great site! I just happened to hit the link at the bottom of your comment and here I
am. You have some great info on your site. I will definitely be checking in often.
Thank you for all your great work on this site.
Hi, Great site, Been frantically looking for a subscribe to icon, didn't find one. So i have book marked this. With all the tags, it will occupy me for quite a while. We have very similar problems here in the UK, and it is very frightening.There are more cameras in London, than anywhere else in Europe, they know where your car is any given minute, with Number plate recognition cameras and you can be tracked anywhere, in real time.Please try to keep posted when you publish again..
You've been tagged….see my blog, copy and paste it to yours with you information!
Hello Lynda,
nice place you got here! Due to my political work I cannot be on Forums as much as I used to, but you're all present in my mind.
Keep on fighting! The smoking bans were just the opener.
For Humanity!
like your blog. we have the same motivations.
check out my blog
keep up the good fight!

Charles Dickens Quotes About KissingQuotes about: Kissing
Before I go," he said, and paused -- "I may kiss her?" It was remembered afterwards that when he bent down and touched her face with his lips, he murmured some words. The child, who was nearest to him, told them afterwards, and told her grandchildren when she was a handsome old lady, that she heard him say, "A life you love.
You have been so careful of me that I never had a child's heart. You have trained me so well that I never dreamed a child's dream. You have dealt so wisely with me, Father ,from my cradle to this hour, that I never had a child's belief or a child's fear. Mr. Gradgrind was quite moved by his success, and by this testimony to it. " My dear Louisa," said he, you abundantly repay my care. Kiss me, my dear girl.

Disciplines: Snow BikeFrom: Seattle, Washington Born: 12/17/87
Though his name isn't widely known at X Games, Robert Haslam has been a fixture in the small Pacific Northwest freestyle motocross scene for nearly a decade and is known for his Gumby-like elasticity with full extensions on every bar trick. He is the owner of JetCity FMX, booking freestyle demos at county fairs and monster truck rallies that he performs in along with riders from the U.S. and Canada. When he heard Snow Bike Best Trick would be debuting at XG Aspen 2018, he and his friend Kyle Demelo began working on modifications to Timbersled snow bike kits to make them more jump ramp-friendly, and promptly started sending them into a foam pit. He'd never been on a snow bike before this winter, but then again, neither have most of the other guys in the field. Look for big bar tricks and backflip variations.

I put it here as I didn't know where to put it.
As a male who was married to an extremely vanilla woman until she died, there is a question that has come on my mind since.
I've read stories where women use a strap on dildo on their husbands and I'm sure this has ben done. I know you can get double sided strap on ones that allow the wearer to have one inside her at the same time, but with the ordinary strap on, would the wearer (female) get any inducement (does it put pressure on any part of the female body) from the item or does she simply get it from knowing she is shagging her husband / boyfriend / date, maybe in revenge?
I would like to work a story about this.

Ideal for security surveillance, search and rescue, and tactical applications, the Iris 321 3.6x 3rd Generation Night Vision Binocular from Night Optics is equally optimized for handheld or headgear-mounted use. It features two 3rd generation filmless autogated intensifier tubes that provide image resolution of 64-72 lp/mm and automatic brightness control. They will enable you to see brighter and clearer images than 1st and 2nd generation devices with similar optics. The filmless microchannel plate improves the signal-to-noise ratio and efficiency of the intensifier, and autogating greatly increases sensitivity in low light and varying lighting conditions, protects from bright light burnout, and extends life. Outfitted with automatic brightness control, the device will regulate image brightness to maintain the same visibility. To maximize image brightness in total darkness, the binocular features a built-in infrared illuminator that can cast infrared light on your targets. The optical system features a multi-coated 80mm, f/1.6 lens system, a 3.6x magnification, a 15° angular field of view, and a minimum focus distance of 10'.
The water-resistant housing is made of lightweight, durable, impact-resistant polymer. The wide rubber winged eyecups will prevent spill-over of light and offer comfortable cushions between the orbits of your eyes and the eyepieces.

|[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-1570) Add a per-job configuration knob to control loading of native hadoop libraries
|Wed, 11 Jul 2007 19:05:04 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1570?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Doug Cutting updated HADOOP-1570: --------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) This looks great, except the methods to set the configuration property don't belong on JobConf. JobConf should only have methods specific to jobs, settings read by the MapReduce kernel. We've not been great about enforcing this in the past, but don't want JobConf to just turn into a heap of settings. Rather these should be static methods on related code, like util.NativeCodeLoader. > Add a per-job configuration knob to control loading of native hadoop libraries > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1570 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1570 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: io > Affects Versions: 0.13.0, 0.12.3 > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Arun C Murthy > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-1570_1_20070709.patch > > > As it exists today, native-hadoop libraries are loaded automatically if libhadoop.so is present; however we have sporadically seen issues (HADOOP-1545) since native direct-buffers aren't very well understood. The only way to switch off usage of these is to remove the native libraries which is a maintenence issue for large clusters... > Hence I propose we add a per-job config knob: {{hadoop.native.lib}} (set to {{true}} by default) which can be used to control usage of native libraries even when the libraries are present e.g. we can have hadoop installed with native libraries present and then use this knob to switch off their usage in rare cases we see issues with them; thus aiding maintenence. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

THE faction of  militants which carried out the March 15 bombing in Warri, Delta State says its next target is to bomb the Government House, also known as Creek Haven, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State and the NDDC office.
The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger-Delta (MEND) claimed responsibility for the two bombs, which were detonated 200 metres away from the Government House Annex, Warri.
But a supposed militant leader, who identified himself as the Udemegun of Niger-Delta, in a text message to Sunday Vanguard, yesterday, said his group was not yet done with the governors of Delta and Bayelsa states, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan and Chief Timipre Sylva respectively.
His words, "I, the Udemgun of Niger-Delta is here to inform u that with my group Uduaghan, Timpre Sylva will never have peace. I will live (sic) Delta State for now until close to the campaign period, there will be massive bomb and rocket launchers attack in the state.
"Bayelsa Government House is the next target because Sylva wants to kill the people with hunger; we are going to use rocket launchersâ€.

By Matt Melton
Baseball became America's pastime almost immediately from its inception. The game's greatness shines for several reasons, many of which are obvious. The methodical pace of play between pitcher & catcher, and between hitter & fielder, allows for easy conversation among friends while still being able to focus on the game's action. The baseball season itself begins in the spring, coinciding with nature's yearly rejuvenation, and continues through summer when the weather is dry and the days are long enough to play two. The creation of the sport itself is a tale of American folklore, and Americans are wary to trudge on the sagas of their history.
It also doesn't hurt that certain men named Cobb, Ruth, Mays, Gehrig, Mantle, Musial, Aaron, DiMaggio, and so many others, brought a heroic presence to the lives of millions, through both the best and worst times of our nation's history. From roaring economic excess to crashing stock markets, there was baseball. From World War to Pleasantville and back to World War again, there was baseball. From radios to broadband, streetcars to subways, and megaphones to smart ones, there was baseball.
Every once in a while, baseball reminds us how glorious the sport is, by giving us a few magnificent weeks of paradise. The drama of this year's conclusion to the regular season, and four-week run to crown the World Series champion, has renewed my love affair with the game. I admit, it surely helps that my hometown team took center stage during the events of the last few weeks. However, any baseball fan who tells you that this season didn't give him or her new material to share with future generations, when it's time to pass on life lessons learned, is lying.
This past season taught us that anything is possible. At a time when our country's future is as bleak as we ever thought it could be, baseball gave us hope that we can succeed. At a time when Americans seem more distraught with their fellow neighbor than ever before, baseball brought us together in celebration. At a time when external differences become fodder for hate, when disparity and jealousy rule the day, baseball inspired us to focus on teamwork, unity and trust. To paraphrase the adage on the importance of kindergarten: everything you ever need to know, you can learn in a summer of playing baseball.
How many kids in St. Louis will pick up a bat and dream of immortality after seeing hometown hero David Freese resurrect the Cardinals in the World Series? How many kids in Texas will master a fastball after seeing Derek Holland dominate on the hill in Game 5? From city to city, year after year, baseball brings a sublime inspiration to generations of adults, children, and anyone who has the desire to recapture what is good.
With that sublime inspiration, there also comes a callous reality to the game. How else can you describe a sport where the very best hitters fail seven out of every ten times they enter the batter's box, and where the very best teams leave the park losers at least sixty times during the season? As great as baseball is, it is a sport surrounded, cloaked, and otherwise ensconced in failure.
Failure does bring one thing that success rarely does – a chance for introspection. Unity and trust are wonderful attributes to share with others, but when it comes to developing one's self, a little humility and modesty can go a long way towards true growth as a person. Baseball gives us that proverbial chance to dust ourselves off, no matter the circumstance or score, and try, try again.
However, there is no rewarding amount of humbleness that can be learned after witnessing the hardships experienced by the kids on the Ugandan Little League team. The Ugandan squad was the first African team to ever qualify for the Little League World Series. That is no small feat, when considering that throughout most of Africa, famine, poverty and death are basic concepts learned well before one ever swings a bat. Like most third-world countries, parents (often illiterate themselves) are not as astute with record keeping, especially when it comes to birth certificates and residency documents. As such, despite what the rules of the game called for, the winners did not move on in the Little League tournament. The United States State Department refused visas for the kids, denying them their chance to succeed – or fail – on the diamond together.
As sublimely inspiring as this baseball season was, remember that there is another side to the game. That callous side can rear its head in several ways – with a swing that misses, with a dive that comes up empty, or as those 11 and 12-year olds from Uganda experienced, with an opportunity earned that is stolen before ever being realized.
