It's been awhile since I've had something infuriate me to the point I felt the need to blog about it. That changed today after I spent about an hour trying to remove some intrusive malware from my laptop. Oh, I know. I have installed all the wonderful little goodies that are supposed to make the job easier and even prevent most malware from infecting my baby in the first place. Nothing is perfect, though. Something always seems to find its way through all the blocks, just to make life miserable until I can get it removed.
That leads me to today's little gem. Amazon Smart Search somehow snuck onto my laptop and proceeded to pester me every 2 - 3 minutes to make Amazon Smart Search my default browser. I didn't even know Amazon has its own browser. "What new malicious evil is this?" I asked no one in particular, since I'm home alone. Assuming a new browser tool bar had installed itself, I ran a search of my hard drive for "Amazon" to see if I could find where it was nesting.
While I'm not a complete idiot where computers are concerned, I consider myself one of those people who knows just enough to be dangerous. When all the Amazon files started filling the screen, I decided more information would be needed before I zapped something important. Off to Ixquick, I go. A quick Google scrape later (Ixquick doesn't save any info from search history, while it returns the same results you get when searching with Google, who DOES save ALL of your search history for purposes known only to them.), I find a nice little article on Amazon Smart Search removal. Moments later the pest has been removed safely. 15 minutes and still no pop-up saying I need to change my default browser, so I assume it was a successful uninstall.
Amazon Smart Search? Seriously? SMART Search? What makes it so smart? This is exactly why I hate GEC. (That's Giant Evil Corporations, for those who may have wondered.) What is with people these days? Can no one think for themselves anymore? I have news for you, Amazon: YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT! Heck. Half the time, even I don't know what I want, so how are you supposed to have figured it out? I do know this. I don't want Amazon, or any other computer program, telling me what I want. I will decide for myself. Whose idea was it to call these annoying devices smart, anyway? Smart-car, smart-chip, smart-phone, smart-search...dumb idea!
I have a theory that this is part of the problem causing society becoming more ignorant. People are so caught up in letting computers think for them, that they have completely forgotten how to think for themselves. I won't be surprised to learn that we soon have an app to tell us when we need to pee. We've stopped teaching basic courses in our schools in order to make room for shoving technology down our kids' throats. No wonder we are becoming dumber! (For more on this topic, try searching the Archives over at American Thinker. Some very interesting stuff on the subject there.)
Said technology is bent on reducing the amount of thought required to use it and making decisions easier by pointing us in its perceived right direction, based on our day to day actions. Guess how technology gets all that daily information. Yep. Those good ole tracking cookies. Oh sure. They're harmless. They won't hurt your computer. They don't collect any Personally Identifiable Information about you. Have you ever stopped to ask what they consider Personally Identifiable Information? I personally think tracking what I search on the web and how I use my computer is rather identifiable information about me. You may not have my address, but you have the address of my ISP, who does have it. Hmmmmm...
Try looking at it from a non-technological perspective for a moment. If I followed you around for a few weeks and wrote down everything you did, but I didn't include your name or address or phone number on the pages that I tucked away in a file folder, do you think I couldn't find you later by using that information? Would you shrug your shoulders and go on about business as usual when I showed up at your doorstep with a pile of catalogs pertaining to all the things you did over the past month?
Give me just a moment of your time to show you these wonderful offers that I'm sure will interest you since I know you've been shopping at similar stores this week. Oh and while we're at it, how about we expand on your knowledge base by checking out some similar items that you didn't show an interest in, but they are actually pretty close to stuff you do seem to like. No? Well, what about these other offers? It's just a few seconds of your time. It won't take long at all.
While I'm busy trying to convince you of the benefits of the latest tanning cream, someone else steps up to show you what they discovered while following you around after you visited their store. Their stack of catalogs isn't quite as big as mine, but they also want to take just a moment of your time to show you some things you are sure to need. Then a third salesman shows up, claiming he isn't there to sell anything, only show you some stuff you might like to try for free. Since you don't seem to mind these other guys standing at your door... Next thing you know, you have a group of people all trying to crowd into your living room with a stack of pictures to tout their wares.
This is exactly how malware works. It isn't inherently evil or destructive. There is no malicious intent to destroy the function of your computer. It just wants to collect some information and use it to try to sell you stuff or get you to go to websites that want to sell you stuff. The problem is that the stack of catalogs gets so big, your computer doesn't have time to do what you WANT it to do. It can't function around the pests that are busy trying to tell you what you want or need.
No problem, you say. I'll just hire a bodyguard. In computer terms, that would be your anti-malware or anti-adware program. You've already put a security system in your house when you moved in, and you carry homeowner's insurance (anti-virus software with a money-back guarantee). So you aren't worried about the thugs that want to break in and steal your stuff or destroy your house (virus or trojan files). You just need a small guard dog to add to that to keep the sales guys from pestering you. Something to get rid of the trash that your main security guard isn't trained to catch.
Makes sense, right? Well, this works okay, except now your computer is really slow, because it is now bogged down with all the scanning and removing going on in the background. You only have so many resources to use at one time. You can't stand in your living room all day, listening to a bunch of salesmen tell you what you need to buy next, and your computer can't do the basic functions you WANT it to do, if it is bogged down with all the programs running at once to keep out the stupid malware.
Back to why I hate Amazon.com...
The worst thing about the GEC is that they have so many other little companies attached to them to do their dirty work. They sit back and sing their own praises about how good they are to you, the customer, while their little side companies are busy clogging up your system with more junk and making your computer work overtime to keep up. They are very good at keeping you distracted from their evil schemes to the point that they can simply SAY they didn't do it on purpose, and you'll believe them.
Sometimes, I KNOW what I want to do online. If I don't, then I'll figure it out on my own. I don't need someone else to think for me. I don't need other programs to tell me what I want to do. I hire the ones I want to provide specific services. If I wanted all the other things that keep clinging to important files on my computer, I'd have asked for them. I DON'T want them. I don't want to support GEC like Amazon who hide most of the bad stuff they are doing behind other business names they call "affiliates." Ultimately, there are only a few pockets at the top of the heap that are being lined from all the sheep who are too busy grazing to note the garbage they are spewing right alongside the supposed good stuff they do.
I could rant on this subject for days, but my smart-phone just told me to go use the restroom, and my computer says my turtle wants to be brought back inside to his tank. Meanwhile, dinner isn't going to cook itself. I've yet to find a good deal on a smart-stove or smart-chicken!
Thanks for reading my heavily opinionated drivel!

One More Reason I Hate Amazon.com

If you hadn't already noticed, drones are invading film making and as the viewer, we can only benefit. If you weren't sure just how important an element the use of drone photography was becoming in the film making industry, then consider these two facts. Firstly, the FAA approved the commercial use of drones for six film-making companies back in September 2014. By the beginning of 2015 that number was twenty, and at the end of 2015 it had risen to over 500!
Yes, we have all seen aerial shots in films, but these have been relatively static – cranes may give you the angle, but no movement, while remote helicopters can work at a distance, but they do not have the responsiveness of drones, so aerial imagery has been sadly one-dimensional. Today that is all changing, as you can see from the video we have included for the making of a Game of Thrones commercial. Clearly the advancements in digital video photography have provided the gateway for drones to reach their true potential and this is most definitely one of those occasions where one plus one equals three. The quality of the imagery coming from drone shots is remarkable, while the smooth and seamless multi-directional movement can produce breathtaking results that truly add an extra dimension to films.
Whereas before, in films such as the unforgettable train sequence in Mission Impossible, the camera was static, so imagine the difference had they used a drone. Move on a few years to Skyfall, the James Bond movie, and surely you remember the motor cycle chase across the rooftops don't you? Drones were used for many shots in that sequence and it was impossible not to feel you were 'right there' watching for yourself. While this is all good for us, it is even better for film makers. No longer will they have to build mini railroads for camera 'trucks' to film action sequences, sequences that are notoriously plagued by too many cuts to different angles. Instead they can create smooth and flowing action that will allow us, the viewer, to concentrate more closely on the action without disturbance.
However, it is not just the movie industry that is benefitting, as you will see from our second video, courtesy of Robert McIntosh. From sport to advertising, drones are getting in on the action, even with sports that demand silence at crucial moments like golf. Unlike previous remotely operated helicopters, drones are virtually silent, so we can now watch the likes of Phil Mickelson playing golf from a totally new angle, and it's impressive. Is for car commercials, well we have all seen aerial shots of cars in action before, but even in the short clips included in this video, the difference is remarkable. It is as though we have leapt forward twenty years almost overnight.
As for where drones will further influence filming, and well natural history has to be a logical field where the ability to follow animals at close range and not filmed just from the back of a Land Rover or Landcruiser. For us, the viewer, it will be like being reintroduced to the natural world all over again. The likelihood is that we will now get to watch so many sports during the Summer Olympics from angles we have never witnessed before, and with the Winter Olympics the door is wide open to some truly spectacular aerial shots.
Of course there are also those who like to think outside of the box, and Ars Electronica Futurelab in Linz, Austria have already taken the artistic capabilities of drones to a stunning level already with their pre-programmed multi-drone night time displays, that are a joy to behold. Somehow you just can't help but feel that right now, we are just scratching the surface of the drone's capability where film making is concerned.

Forms are PDF documents that print with the Declaration. The code and edition number (e.g., ML-42 1/17) appear on the Declaration. Forms also appear on the Quote Summary and Policy Application deliverables.
Review how forms print and appear on the Declaration prior to uploading them to BriteCore.
Preliminary Work
- Gather and organize all form files, which should be PDFs
- Ensure the PDFs are of high quality
General Assertions
- Forms print with new business
- Forms do not print with renewals
The combination of form code and edition number must be unique among forms
New Business Exceptions
Forms print with new business except when the
- Suppress Printing checkbox is checked, which prevents a form from printing
- Document Printing Depends on Selected Category checkbox is checked, which prints the form only when certain categories are chosen
- Print only when this item's premium is drop down is selected, the form may not print based upon the configuration of the setting.
Renewal Exceptions
Forms do not print with renewals except when
- An existing Form Code, Edition Number, or Description is changed
- A new form is added to the line of business
- The Always Print on Renewal checkbox is checked, which prints the form every renewal
If Document Printing Depends on Selected Category or Print only when this item's premium is is checked, the form will not print on a renewal unless the Always Print on Renewal is also checked
Order in which Forms Print
Default Behavior
Forms print with the primary insured's Declaration:
- Forms will print in the order their associated line item appears in the Lines module (
policy_type_items.sortOrderfor a given
policy_type_items.policyTypeId). If more than one form is attached to a line item, the forms will print in the order they were added to the line item
- Then, forms associated with the policy type will print in the order they appear in the Lines module
The example pictured below is a policy type in the Lines module with 6 different forms. Assuming both coverages are on the policy, the order in which the forms print will be 5, 3, 4, 6, 1, and then 2:
- Form 5 is first as it is associated with the first listed line item and was uploaded to the line item prior to form 3
- Form 3 is second as it is associated with the first listed line item and was uploaded after form 5
- Form 4 is third as it is associated with the second listed line item
- Forms 6, 1 and 2 are next as that is the order they are listed
With a database setting, forms will still print with the primary insured's Declaration but will do so in alphabetical order. Engineers with access may read PR 4629 for more information. To enable, run
#UPDATE settings SET value=1 WHERE option='sort-forms-for-printing'
Location on Deliverables
Forms can appear on the Declaration, Quote Summary, or Policy Application in one of two places.
The default location is at the bottom of the first page with only the Form Code and Edition Number.
When enabled, Settings > Deliverables > Options > Show Form Descriptions on Declarations, Quote Summaries, and Policy Applications, will show the Form Code, Edition Number, and Description on a separate page.
Order on Deliverables
By default, the Lines module setup governs the order in which forms will appear on the deliverables.
By Type
Documents uploaded to the Policy Type section appear first. The remaining order are the following types of line itmes:
- Coverage
- Adjustment
- Non-rate
Within a Type
Within each type subset, the order of forms is the order in which the line items are built.
If line items are built in the below order,
- Coverage Z
- Coverage K
- Coverage H
then that is the order the line item forms will appear on the deliverables. If, however, the order of the line items are changed to
- Coverage H
- Coverage K
- Coverage Z
then that will be the order the line items appear.
Database Setting
Via a database setting, forms can appear in alphabetical order. For those with database access, run
#UPDATE settings SET value=1 WHERE option='sort-forms-in-dec'
Lines Attachments
Forms are accessible in the Lines module only. Though forms print with a policy Declaration, they are not accessible on the individual policy.
For easy access to forms, as well as a history of form use,
- Navigate to Lines > Attachments
- Create a new folder with a title, such as Forms 1/1/17
- Create subfolders for each line of business
- Upload the forms
Lines of Business
Keeping in mind the order forms print and appear on deliverables, forms can be uploaded to a policy type or an individual line item:
- Upload a form to the entire policy type if it should appear with every policy (e.g., Privacy Statement)
- Upload a form to an individual line item if it should print only if the line item appears on the policy (e.g., Computer Coverage)
- Add a Form Code, Edition Number, and Description (e.g., ML-223 6.0 Lead Liability Exclusion) to each uploaded form
- Select the applicable print settings for the form (e.g., always print on renewal)
Force Print a Form on an Individual Policy
You can force print a form on an individual policy so long as the corresponding Declaration has not been printed.
- Enable the include-forms-as-attachments setting
- Locate the applicable Declaration that has yet to print
- Access the folder for that Declaration that contains the corresponding forms
- Highlight the form row
- Click Print State
- Set the form's print state to to be determined
Print a Form on an Optional Endorsement
When the line item is added to the policy, its attached form will display on the Declaration and print:
- Navigate to the Lines module
- Create the line item
- Upload the form to that line item
- Enter the Form Code, Edition Number, and Description
Specify With Which Copy of the Declaration Forms Print (IWS Only)
- Identify which copies of the Declaration are generated via Settings > Deliverables. For example, you may have the Insured and Additional Interest checked. Note that the if the mortgagee and agent copies are selected, they may not print if you are using InsVista and emailing agent copies, respectively
- Determine with which copies you want forms to print. For example, you may want forms to print with the Insured copy but not the Additional Interest copy
- Submit a ticket to IWS
- Run
Select * x_report_locations WHERE reportId = ( SELECT id FROM report_types WHERE reportType = 'Declaration' );
- For each state update the following columns to either
- formsInsured
- formsAgent
- formsAddtInt
- formsMortagee
Once enabled, the change will only apply to newly created Declarations. Already created Declarations will still print forms according to the previous settings.
When would I use the Document Printing Depends on Selected Category Values when printing a form?
A primary case for this setting is when you have a category where the user is asked to select the form (e.g., HO 2, HO 3, etc.). Based upon which form option is selected from the category, the respective form should print.
Can an already-existing PDF be replaced with a new PDF?
- Not from the screen. As such, either
- Delete the old form and add the new one. However, when a new form is uploaded, BriteCore's default behavior is to print the form with all new and renewal policies, or
- Submit an OOPS! ticket to IWS with the new form attached and to which policy type or line item it should be attached
Are forms tied to effective dates?
- On the screen, yes
- In the database, not directly. Forms are attached to the policy type (
x_policy_types_docs) or line item (
x_policy_type_items_docs). Both tables follow the flow
files > policy_type_items (line items only) > policy_types > effective_dates
- When analyzing forms, the below queries serve as a starting point. The
effectiveDatein the
WHEREclause will need to be updated prior to running the queries
Policy type level
SELECT xpt.formCode, editionNumber, xpt.description,
pt.name AS Policy Type
FROM x_policy_types_docs AS xpt
JOIN files ON files.id = xpt.fileId
JOIN policy_types AS pt ON pt.id = files.referenceId
JOIN effective_dates ON effective_dates.id = pt.effectiveId
WHERE effectiveDate = '2015-02-24'
ORDER BY formCode
Line item level
SELECT xpt.formCode, editionNumber, xpt.description, pti.type, pti.name AS Line Item Name, pti.description,
pti.displayOnDecAs, policy_types.name AS Policy Type
FROM x_policy_type_items_docs AS xpt
JOIN files ON files.id = xpt.fileId
JOIN policy_type_items AS pti ON pti.id = files.referenceId
JOIN policy_types ON policy_types.id = pti.policyTypeId
JOIN effective_dates ON effective_dates.id =
WHERE effectiveDate = '2015-02-12'
ORDER BY formCode;
Report unclear or missing documentation.

As with Devon County, entries were certainly down for Royal Bath & West but the quality of those cattle forward gave high hopes for success. Judge Mrs Grania Phillips' found her Breed Champion in Lisa Roper's yearling bull, Forde Abbey Solomon, with Female Champion, Kingsbrompton Flirt standing Reserve. Colesden Curly 21st, bred by David & Sarah Tutt, owned and exhibited by Messrs Poad & Slee, won her cow class and stood Reserve Female Champion, while Tom Priday's Norton Valley Salamander, exhibited by Mark & Lisa Parsons stood Reserve Male Champion. Mark & Lisa were showing Norton Valley Devons as well as their own Kingsbury Devons and they were in the ribbons in most of the Devon classes. Their consistency gave a hint as to what was to follow in the Interbreed, on Thursday and Saturday. On Thursday, Interbreed Judge, Mr I Green from Moray, followed the Devon judging to tap out Forde Abbey Solomon as his Reserve in the Best Exhibitor Bred Native Championship and the Junior Native Beef Bull Championship. Mark & Lisa Parsons' pair of Kingsbury yearling heifers, took the Championship title in the Best Pair of Native Beef Animals and the Best Pair of exhibitor bred Native Beef Animals. This pair, both sired by Ebbesbourne Oakley, went on to stand Reserve in the Supreme Pairs Championship to a Limousin pair. That might have been thought enough success for one Show, but Saturday's Finale brought more success in the prestigious Yarner and Col. Bill Roberts Championship classes for Group of 3 and Group of 4 respectively. In his summing up before tapping out his Champion, Judge Mr Ron Wilson from Roxburghshire said that this was probably the finest groups class he had judged in his entire career. With 13 exhibitor bred groups of three competing for the Yarner Trophy, it was good to see the Norton Valley trio pulled forward into the final six. Even better to have them tapped out as Reserve Champions to Nick Hill's Quaish pair of Limousins. The Norton Valley trio of yearling bull and two yearling heifers were all sired by Perton Dynamite, bred by the late Richard Jeanes. In the highlight class of the Show, the Col. "Bill" Roberts Perpetual Trophy for the Best Group of Four, the Devon Judge's selection of the Norton Valley trio plus Kingsbury Sovereign, proved the right choice; with the ringside six deep with spectators watching the impressive spectacle of 11 groups of four representing all the main Native and Continental breeds, it was fantastic to see the Norton Valley quartet getting the tap for Reserve Champion, with the Championship once again going to the Limousins. See the website for a full set of results.

Ever read a book and wondered how the beautiful scene described in its pages would actually look like? Yes the feeling is absoluyely priceless. To be lost in wonderland where you are surrounded by the beauty of nature all around you. While most of the places are fictional in nature there are a few places which have inspired authors and film makers to write about them or include them in their movies. Here is a guide to five such places in India that have inspired authors to write about them.

Chand Baori
Chand Baori, located in the village ofAbhaneriin Rajasthan, is a famous and arguably the most beautiful step well in India. It was built in the 9th century by the then ruling king of the region, Raja Chand. Built on a square plan, Chand Baori is a 100 ft deep step well that has 3500 narrow steps in 13 storeys. The well is surrounded by steps from three sides, while the fourth side has a set of pavilions that are built one atop the other. The side having pavilions is characterized by niches having beautiful sculptures and religious carvings. There is also a stage for performing arts and several rooms for the King and Queen. Chand Baori is now being managed by the Archaeological survey of India. There is no fee charged for visiting the monument. The place has also been shown in various movies like "The Fall" and "The Dark Knight Rises".

If you have read R.K. Narayan's Malgudi Days, or seen its televised version by Shankar Nag, then you may remember the make-believe town of Malgudi in Agumbe where the series was actually shot. Certainly one fictional place where you can actually head to and relive those beautiful moments.

Kanha National Park
The Kanha National Parkis one of the biggest parks in Madhya Pradesh and is also a protected Tiger Reserve. In the 1930's, this area was divided into two sanctuaries, Hallon and Banjar, that were later joined together to make the Kanha National Park. The park has a significant population of Royal Bengal Tiger, leopards, sloth bear, Barasingha and Indian wild dog. Other commonly seen animals in the park include the spotted deer, sambar, barking deer and the four-horned deer. The lush sal and bamboo forests, grassy meadows and ravines of Kanha provided inspiration to the author Rudyard Kipling for his famous novel, 'The Jungle Book'.

Ram Setu
Certain historical inscriptions, old travel guides and old maps have been said to reinforce a religious and geographical belief that this is an ancient bridge fromRamayana. The Sri Lankan Tourism Development Authority sought to promote religious tourism from Hindu pilgrims in India by including the phenomenon as one of the points on its 'Ramayana Trail', celebrating the legend of Prince Rama.

Shangri La
The fictional lamasery of Shangri-La from'Lost Horizon'a 1933 English novel by James Hilton, which was later converted into a movie by the same name is in-fact inspired from the real location in the Himalayan ranges.

A Letter For My Foolish Father
by Mey Lyn Joy Lopez
Dear Papa,
As time goes by I learned to live without you because you left me all alone and replaced us with a new one. I never forgot you, I just learned to let go of you.
At first, it was hard. I tried to hold you back so you won't drift away from me. I just want to tell you how I want to turn back time so that those moments when you were still with us, when we were still once a family so that I can always cherish those moments and maybe I would even not want to come back in present time because in my heart I know that nothing can make me any happier than being your daughter and being your family.
You forgot me haven't you? You forgot my mother. You abandoned us and I don't know what I have done wrong for you to ruin my mother, my sister and my once dreamed family. You shattered my heart into pieces when you walked away home and never came back even once.
Thank you also for what you have done because now I have promised myself no matter happens I will do anything to keep my own family complete. At least you taught me that. All my life I will always carry the scar you caused me.
Your once called daughter,
Mey Lyn

Lahore : Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi Thursday said the premature dissolution of any provincial assembly or assemblies would not affect the Senate election, which would be held in time as per the Constitution.
"In case, any provincial assembly is dissolved before the Senate elections, the senators would be elected on the basis of seats in the National Assembly and the remaining provincial assemblies. The Constitution is very much clear on it," he said in an interview with a private television channel.
The prime minister in response to a question said there could be an aspect of conspiracy in such things and talks. However, if any chief minister opted for a premature dissolution of a provincial assembly, he would compromise his politics, he added.
About the gathering of main opposition parties leaders along with Dr.Tahir ul Qadri in Lahore on January 17, Prime Minister Abbasi said it was for them (Asif Zardari and Imran Khan) to think and decide as to why they were joining hands with a non-entity (Tahir ul Qadri).
To another question, he said, "If Asif Ali Zardari and Imran Khan were joining hands with a smaller party, which had no political credibility and base, then questions would definitely arise." "I don't know why they are in a hurry, when only four months are left in the election," the prime minister said and categorically stated that the government would complete its term and the general election would be held in July next.
He said even if he dissolved the National Assembly right now, there was no chance for early election before the completion of ongoing process of delimitation of constituencies in accordance with the new census.
He advised the opposition parties and leaders to wait for the next general election; focus on election politics and not to become part of the efforts of instability, which would affect their performance in the election.To another question, the prime minister said Imran Khan was used to taking turns on daily basis.
To a query, he clarified his remarks about the July 28 Supreme Court verdict and said he had stated that the decision was neither accepted by the masses nor it would be recorded in the history. The SC verdict was implemented in letter and spirit, he added.
He also referred to the execution of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and said that decision of the superior court was not accepted by the masses as well as history. As regards former prime minister Nawaz Sharif's views about institutions, Abbasi said he (Nawaz Sharif) was a senior politician and thrice-elected prime minister and his views were "not a hard-line" but "a statement of facts".
To a question about Nawaz Sharif's reported views about Sheikh Mujeeb ur Rehman, the prime minister said, "The politicians have to face different questions from media, and sometimes the remarks are reported out of context."
When asked as to who would be the next prime minister from the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) if the party won the next election, he said it would be decided by the party's Central Executive Committee and the leadership.
Prime Minister Abbasi said the relationship between Nawaz Sharif and Zia ul Haq only remained for less than three months, from May to August 1988, and the impression of any long association carried no truth. He said besides being a statesman, Nawaz Sharif was an experienced politician not only in Pakistan but the world over. He had carried out record development during his tenures and always upheld democracy and constitution.
During last 30 years, the PML-N remained in power for only ten years at the Centre and one could compare its performance with others, he added.
To a question, the prime minister said the PML-N was a democratic party as its members enjoyed freedom of speech more than any other party. He said there was no room for a technocrat government in the Constitution. In past, many technocrats had ruled the country, but they had no Contribution. The government in 2002 was not a public representative and everyone was witnessed to what they had delivered, the prime minister remarked.
To another question about the civil-military relations, the prime minister said Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa was a professional and was selected by former prime minister Nawaz Sharif out of a panel.
He viewed that the incumbent Army Chief had performed well and that the civil military relations were harmonious that would be better for the country's future. Prime Minister Abbasi said General Bajwa was committed for the continuation of democracy and holding of timely elections.
Speaking about the foreign policy challenges, the prime minister said starting from the first policy announced by US President Trump to recent tweets, Pakistan had opted a firm stance that it was a sovereign country which unfortunately pinched some states. Pakistan had always strived to protect its sovereignty and sustained the pressure from those who criticized it, he remarked.
To a question whether Pakistan was dependent on the United States or vice versa, the prime minister said all the countries were interdependent on one another as no state could operate independently. Asked about any common ground to resolve the issues, he said it was there as both Pakistan and the US had been fighting anti-terror war. Pakistan, he added, had responded to the US reservations and also extended cooperation against terrorism. Besides, both the countries had also a history of economic and people-to-people ties.
He said Pakistan had fought the anti-terror was from its own resources, which led to the loss of around 60,000 lives and economical loss of $ 120 billion.
When questioned about any Indian role in strains between Pak-US ties, he said no doubt, India had hegemonic designs in the region but Pakistan had its counter-designs too. He said Pakistan had a core issue of Kashmir with India and there was no room for relaxation on it. "We still have tension on border and now a new dimension of nuclear capability has also been added."
To a question about any possible sideline meeting with Indian Prime minister Narendra Modi at Davos during the upcoming World Economic Forum, he said sideline meetings took place where there was any willingness from both sides. But, such willingness never came from the Modi regime.
He said back-channel diplomacy always continued but formal diplomatic channels were not possible until atrocities in Indian Occupied Kashmir were ended.
Regarding the country's economic outlook, Prime Minister Abbasi said economy was growing at 5.5 percent and it could have been above 6.5 percent had there been no sit-in and the Panama issue.
To another question, the prime minister said Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) had been on the list of privatization for last 15 year as the government had been facing Rs 450 billion deb due to the entity, with Rs 40 billion added just during last year. He recalled that till October 12, 1999, PIA had no debt, rather it used to give dividends to the government. He viewed that governments could not run any business entity, particularly an airline as it had to face a stiff competition from the world airlines.
About the current political situation, the prime minister advised Tahir-ul-Qadri to leave for his country Canada, as being a dual national he was ineligible to even contest election in Pakistan. He also expressed his astonishment over the leadership of Pakistan Peoples Party and Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf, who were following such a person.

White House Staff Secretary Rob Porter (L) reminds U.S. President Donald Trump he had a bill to sign after he departed quickly following remarks at his golf estate in Bedminster, New Jersey U.S.., August 12, 2017
The White House is defending President Donald Trump's failure to acknowledge the women who accused former staff secretary Rob Porter of domestic violence.
White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders tells reporters that Trump and the entire administration take domestic violence very seriously. And she says the president believes that all allegations need to be investigated thoroughly.
Sanders says she spoke directly with the president and he had "relayed that message directly to me."
Trump complained on Twitter over the weekend that, "Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false." He also said he wished Porter well in his future career.

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. -- More than eight months after a hit-and-run accident left an elderly woman seriously injured in Eastchester, state police identified the motorist responsible as an off-duty local police sergeant who committed suicide three days after the incident last summer.
State police announced the results of their months-long investigation Saturday morning.
At about 9:28 p.m. on Aug. 21, 2016, the Eastchester Police Department responded to investigate a hit-and-run automobile/pedestrian collision which occurred on White Plains Post Road (Route 22) in Eastchester.
The victim, identified as 73-year-old Irene Macchia, was transported to Westchester Medical Center as the result of serious, but non-life threatening injuries.
Preliminary investigation by state police revealed a dark-colored pickup truck was traveling northbound, when it struck the pedestrian, who was attempting to cross the road while heading east. Immediately following the collision, the vehicle fled the scene at a high rate of speed, state police said.
Three days later, on Aug. 24, 2016, Eastchester Police Sergeant Richard Morris, 61, was found dead as the result of suicide within Valhalla's Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Mount Pleasant.
On Aug. 25, 2016, at the request of the Eastchester Police Department, the state police, in conjunction with the Eastchester Police Department, assumed the investigation.
The ensuing state police investigation determined Morris, while off duty and after having consumed alcoholic beverages, was operating his personally owned Dodge Ram truck, when he struck the pedestrian and then left the scene of the collision.

Lindows CEO Says Microsoft Targets European ResellersBy Steven Vaughan-Nichols | Print
Desktop-as-a-Service Designed for Any Cloud ? Nutanix Frame
Lindows.com CEO and founder Michael Robertson discusses the "lawsuit rampage" around Windows and Lindows.Microsoft and Lindows.com Inc. are continuing to battle in the courts of Europe for the hearts and minds of resellers in what Lindows.com CEO and founder Michael Robertson, calls a "lawsuit rampage" begun by Microsoft last month when it went after Lindows on trademark grounds in Finland, France, Sweden and the Netherlands.
"I still don't know why they choose those four countries," Robertson told Ziff Davis Channel Zone in an exclusive interview. In each country, he said, "the complaints were the same ones they tried to use on us in the United States: that we were violating their Windows trademark with Lindows."
In the US, Microsoft filed a similar suit in December of 2001. But on March 15, 2002, the American court ruled that there was considerable evidence "windows" was a generic term and Microsoft did not have enough evidence to be granted a preliminary injunction. That case is now scheduled to go to court on March 1, 2004.
Lindows' Response.
Robertson has also traveled to the Netherlands and Sweden to support local resellers and meet with lawyers. He expects the first trial to be in the Netherlands where "Dutch resellers have volunteered to go to court" over the trademark issue.
According to Robertson, Microsoft is deliberately trying to stop Lindows by threatening its resellers and threatening court action throughout Europe. "The world is a big place, they only need to find one judge to buy that they'll be harmed by Lindows, so they're picking and choosing jurisdictions."
Robertson dismisses Microsoft's claims saying, "windows" is a generic term for graphical user interfaces that long precedes Microsoft's use of the word. And, in any case, " Lindows goes out of the way to say we're an alternative to Windows, we're not trying to hoodwink anyone into thinking that our operating system is Microsoft Windows."

This article was originally published in the August 2009 edition of Soul Search, the journal of The Sole Society
In the last edition of Soul Search I am sure you read the trial of Solomon Sewell for the murder of Noble Edden at Aylesbury in 1830 sent in by Denise Howes. From our Sole Society records we find that Solomon was the youngest child of John Sewell and his second wife Charlotte nee Archer.
He was baptised 15th February 1809 in Tettsworth, Oxfordshire. Elaine Lowes who is descended from another branch of this family sent me a copy of another account of the murder she found on the internet. It does suggest that Solomon may not have been fully aware of the consequences or responsible for his actions.
William Noble Edden was murdered by some person or persons unknown as he walked home from market one night in 1828. He met his death near the village of Haddenham, Bucks, but lived in Thame, just over the county border in Oxfordshire. His wife was at home in their cottage but she had a clairvoyant vision of the murder and told disbelieving neighbours her husband would not return home that night as his body lay in a ditch somewhere. The neighbours tried to calm her, disbelieving her vision, but the next morning Noble's body was discovered and a murder inquiry was begun.
The authorities, already surprised by the accuracy of Mrs Edden's vision, had an even bigger surprise coming: she announced that in the vision she had also seen the face of the murderer. And that murderer was one she knew to be called Benjamin Tyler.
Tyler, of course, denied the charge but nearly a year later Tyler was arrested for the murder - largely on the testimony of a labourer, Solomon Sewell. Sewell told the magistrates he had seen Tyler hit Noble Edden with a hammer. Tyler dismissed this as nonsense and his main line of defence was that Sewell was a simpleton and his word could not be trusted. Indeed among those testifying that Sewell was of unsound mind was Sewell's own mother. Mrs Edden told the magistrates of her vision on that night.
She said: "On the night of the murder I was ironing; something rushed over me, and I thought I heard the voice of my husband. I ran out and said, 'Oh dear God, my husband is being murdered'. I told this to several persons before I heard the news; I thought I saw my husband's apparition and the man that done it was Tyler. That was the reason I sent for him after the body was brought home; I sent many time, but he wouldn't come. I wanted him to touch the corpse."
The reason why she wanted Tyler to touch the corpse arises from the superstition that the body of a murdered man has the power to point out the murderer. King James I in his Demonology says: "In a secret murder, if the dead carcass be at any time thereafter handled by the murderer it will gush out of blood, as if the blood were crying to Heaven for revenge."
The magistrates released Tyler declaring that the testimony of Sewell was completely untrustworthy. On his release Tyler went to Thame, gaily dressed in ribbons, where he annoyed the witnesses who had given evidence against him, by dancing before their doors. But if Tyler had in the back of his mind the age-old couplet, "If you have done murder and wish to get clear, Take care and be tried in Buckinghamshire" his trust was misplaced. In 1830 Tyler was again rearrested, still largely on Sewell and Mrs Edden's testimony, and eventually committed for trial with Sewell on the capital charge of murdering William Edden. The trial took place in Aylesbury on 5th of March 1830 and did not finish until after midnight.
Both men were found guilty and sentenced to be hanged. Three days later some 4,000 to 5,000 people gathered in front of the gaol to witness the execution. As Tyler advanced to the front of the gallows he addressed the crowd thus: "My blessed brothers. I wish to say a few words to you before I quit this world, which will be in a very few moments, and I hope you will take warning by my untimely fate, though I am innocent of the act for which I suffer. I am just going to leave this world, and I solemnly declare to you that my life has been taken away by false swearers. I bear them no malice but I freely forgive them and I hope God will bless you all."
Sewell's body was dissected at St Bartholomew's Hospital, London, and the surgeons reported that the brain of Sewell was diseased and bore the appearances of those of persons who had been insane. In their opinion the disease had existed throughout the lifetime of Sewell.
The grave of Noble Edden which stands in the churchyard of St Mary's Church, Thame.

I remember learning to read in Miss Young's kindergarten class at School 15 in Elizabeth, NJ. Miss Young taught kindergarten when my grandfather went to School 15 – my grandfather. Miss Young was old. Ever since those little yellow readers about Sis the Snake, I have loved to read. I still remember my first trip to a library. In my memory, it is a dark fall night and the children section glows as if by candlelight. I remember when we moved to the suburbs and lived in a house where I could walk to the library. Walk to the library? Absolute bliss. Blindfolded, I could probably still find the biography section and where the Encyclopedia Brown books were shelved. Later, I went on to earn two degrees in English which both required a lot of time in libraries. And now, there is a whole new set of sweet memories in bringing my children to the library.
So in celebration of National Library Week, I am declaring April "Book Month" here at Sure as the World. Each week, I will be posting a list of my favorite books. I will try to limit myself to a dozen or so titles, however, I'm not making any promises. The lists are not hierarchical, nor are they definitive. And even though nothing makes me break out in a cold sweat faster than the question "What's your favorite book?"- I'm diving in and reminding myself to be brave in all things. I hope you'll join me.

|DANBURY, Conn. (July 12, 2012)– Producing up to 30 linear feet of molded foam cushions per minute, Sealed Air's new Instapak Tractor Mold® system offers a volume of cushions not possible with any other foam-in-bag molding system on the market.
The newest Instapak®Automated Molding System produces cushions that are ideal for major appliances, furniture and building products such as windows, doors and cabinets. The system's proven reliability and unmatched speed allow it to keep pace with the demands of high-volume operations, while offering increased productivity and decreased damage rates over alternative protective packaging systems and materials.
The Instapak Tractor Mold®system continuously creates L, V and U channel cushions as well as low-profile shapes and can be used with any of the 14 unique Instapak® foam formulations.
"With many companies striving to reduce inventories, just-in-time production of packaging materials from a system like this can benefit large operations," said Tim McInerney, Sealed Air's product manager for Instapak® foam packaging. "By reducing inventory and material handling labor costs, the Instapak Tractor Mold® system can lower operating expenses for our customers while dramatically improving productivity."
Instapak® foam is created when two components are mixed together and react to create high-quality polyurethane foam packaging. The Instapak Tractor Mold® system produces a large volume of custom Instapak® cushions by feeding foam and film into a continuous mold tunnel where the foam rises and takes the shape of the finished cushion. As the cushions exit the system, they can be separated with a cutting mechanism and integrated into the packaging line or batched for later use. As with all Sealed Air protective packaging systems, this solution can be customized for each customer's specific needs by Sealed Air's experienced sales representatives.
"Our consultative sales approach has always been the cornerstone of our solution-based product offering," said McInerney. "Our expertly trained sales representatives perform a complete packaging audit of our customers' operations, including a detailed value analysis outlining the return on investment. This, coupled with Sealed Air's first-class service organization and industry leading commitment to R&D, has provided measurable value to our customers for more than fifty years."
In addition to reducing operating costs, the Tractor Mold® system reduces the need for the storage space associated with pre-fabricated materials. Because of its superior performance, Instapak® foam requires less cushioning material in each pack, reducing package size and weight. The reduction in damage aligns with Sealed Air's efforts to reduce carbon footprint throughout a product's lifecycle by avoiding damaged product returns and disposal, and therefore assists customers in reducing their environmental impact as well.
For more information on the Instapak Tractor Mold® system, call 1-800-648-9093 or visitwww.instapak.com.

I am passionate about 3 things in life: My family, my patients/career, and running. I currently exercise about 12 hours a week. The majority of my exercise is running, but I also think it is important to include cross training (which for me, is weight lifting and tire pulls and cycling and core workouts). Cross training improves athletic performance without increasing the risk of over-training in your primary sport.
Regardless of whether you enjoy exercise or not, I think it is important to exercise for your long term health. Exercising outdoors has proven to benefit us more than indoors, and lowers our stress levels and our risk of depression, heart disease, and diabetes. Studies have shown that individuals who live near a park are more charitable to their neighbors and that the entire neighborhood then has lower crime levels. It is for this reason that when I was President of the Florida Orthopedic Society that I held our Annual Meeting here in Sarasota and had the surgeons attending and our community build a park instead of going fishing. I invite you to come visit the $250,000 park we built on the legacy trail at Laurel Park (509 Collins Road, Nokomis, FL 34275), which incorporates fitness stations along a play trail through the woods. Each fitness station has something for children, adults, and the handicapped.
When developing a fitness program, it is important to understand that we have two distinctly different muscle types: aerobic and anaerobic. We should try to exercise both of these muscles. The aerobic exercises have been proven to help us live longer and build new blood vessels to our heart and muscles. The anaerobic muscle fibers help us have power to get up a ladder or sprint or get out of a chair or lift a suitcase. To exercise the aerobic ones, the exercise should be sustained over at least 30 minutes but the intensity should be moderate (so you could still talk to someone while exercising). The anaerobic exercises (such as sprints at the track, or lifting weights) should be in repetitions that are harder.
We should also strive to include some exercises that involve weight bearing to prevent osteoporosis. Running and weight lifting and other exercises when you are upright helps build bones. I was surprised to learn that elite swimmers and cyclists have actually been proven to have below normal bone mass due to lack of weight bearing exercise.
Exercise programs should be designed to have harder days and easier days, and also have a minimum of one day "off" from using a particular muscle group to avoid overuse/injury. Even in the best training programs with the best trainers and the best athletes, injuries can and still do occur. It is important to ease into a new exercise program and proceed cautiously, and to listen to our body. When I/we first start to get a pain, it is far better to rest and use ice than it is to try to push through the pain and risk further injury. As we push the envelope for improved performance and train with more intensity, the risk of injury increases.
One of the most popular myths is that running leads to arthritis of the knee. There is compelling scientific data (65 articles) about running and arthritis, and none of them have shown that running leads to arthritis. Unfortunately, arthritis does occur in most of our knees as we age, and it is much easier for us to blame our ailments on our past work activities or excessive exercise that it is for us to accept the fact that we are getting older.
Although the risk of heart problems in our future is less with aerobic exercise, it is also more likely that a heart issue such as death or heart attack will occur during our exercise. Although I am a physician, I am NOT an internal medicine or cardiologist specialist, and it is important for you to discuss exercise with your personal physician before pursuing an intense program.
I hope the above advice keeps you healthy and fit! However, if you are having a pain or issue that is not improved with rest and time, then I would enjoy the opportunity to treat you. I have been the team doctor for North Port High School since the school opened in 2000, and have also been the orthopedic doc for the Sarasota Marathon and Half Marathon since it started in 2006, and the team physician for Riverview High School and Cross Country since 2009. Because I have completed more than 35 marathons, numerous ultra-marathons, numerous triathlons, and numerous adventure races, it is likely that I can personally relate to your sports injury.
Below are links to local clubs to find like-minded athletes, and to parks and trails:

For years the mindset that "longer is better" has been perpetuated where exercise is concerned. In other words, to receive the full benefits of burning fat and calories, as well as building lean muscle, you have to exercise for at least 30 minutes to an hour. But science has proven that the body responds far more to how hard or intense you exercise, as opposed to how long you exercise. Gone are the days of feeling like you HAVE to work out for hours to experience results. B.U.R.S.T workouts position the body to build lean muscle, burn fat, and re-charge the metabolism in far less time.
Sound to good to be true? It isn't! We, along with countless others, have experienced incredible results from implementing this more efficient way of burning fat. Since time is one of our greatest assets, we want to invest ours wisely. Why spend hours working out when we can burn fat faster with B.U.R.S.T.?
Check out these pilot study results, which show the efficiency of BURST:

The kids and I took a long road trip over Memorial Day weekend to Vermont and back. To entertain us along the way, I attempted to find some kid-friendly podcasts to break up the steady diet of television shows, I Spy, and whining. After running through countless poorly-produced story podcasts where the hosts always had mysteriously thick British accents, I finally found an excellent science-based one called Brains On (more on that below).
During an episode called Secrets that we heard while making our way back across Route 2, a retired UPS driver and amateur etymologist named M.J. Hatfield shared her passion for bugs and other tiny creatures. "One of the things that really got me on insects is I don't focus very well and I don't pay attention very well," she said. "And with insects, I can see something every day that I have never seen before in my life." The kids and I made eye contact in the rearview mirror and smiled.
The next evening, back home, we decided to wander out and see how the garden was coming along. As so often happens when puttering in a garden, one thing led to another and my husband and I found ourselves moving a pile of rocks. They had been sitting in one spot for four years or more but those rocks suddenly needed to be moved to another location right away. If you have a garden, you know how these things occur.
As we lifted one my daughter said, "Look at all the ants! Wait, what are they doing?" There indeed was a mass of black ants scurrying around, grabbing small white balls, and then heading off, sometimes crashing into one another in their haste and burden. In shifting the rock, we'd disturbed an ant nursery and the poor confused little workers were in a sudden frenzy trying to carry their eggs to safety. My husband very gently lifted some of the ants and eggs up so the kids could take a good look, and then set them back down on their way. After a bit we decided to let them settle back down and picked up the next rock and, her curiosity piqued, my daughter looked under this one, too.
"A spider!" Sure enough, under this rock was a spider. It hunched down as we moved the rock and glared at us suspiciously for a moment before moving on. I was starting to turn away when I suddenly noticed it wasn't walking, it was moving rhythmically in a circle, almost like it was dancing. "What's that thing under it?" my daughter asked. I looked closer. "It's a…it's an egg sac! Oh my goodness, she's still building her egg sac." And she was. Caught in the middle of tiny nest of pure white webbing was a yellow blob ("It looks like a yolk," said my son) and she was turning around and around on it, rapidly covering it with more white.
She wasn't happy we were there, but her work was more important than a few oglers. The kids watched, captivated, and after a bit I suggested we just put the rock back where it was so she could finish in peace. We set it back down very, very gently, ensuring that there was still a gap where she was, and went back to work.
When I noticed my daughter wander into the house a bit later, I followed her so that I could get one of them started on bedtime. "Let's head up for bath," I announced when I walked in. Instead she held up her magnifying glass, "I wanted to see the spider again." I looked at the clock, shrugged, and walked back out with her.
We lifted the rock and crouched down around the hole and took turns trading the magnifying glass around. The spider was still working away, although almost no yellow was left. The ants had mostly disappeared, but we were able to peel back some leaves to find the entrance to their nest, a few harried nursery workers still visible. Optimal bath time came and went, and still we watched in the graying light.
"It's just like that lady said," commented my daughter. "If you pay attention, you can see new stuff every day."
M.J. Hatfield, you were right.
If you have kids who like science or the natural world, I highly recommend giving Brains On a listen. The podcasts are generally around 20 to 30 minutes and cover a range of topics. My kids, at 5 and 7, are definitely on the young end for this show and I think it would be excellent for kids up to age 12. Some episodes are pretty straightforward, but the Extinction episode went pretty in-depth on DNA and cloning, to the point where I thought my kids had tuned out. I reconsidered when they later gave their father a blow-by-blow account of why dinosaurs couldn't be cloned. You can listen to Brains On through iTunes or whatever podcast service you prefer (I use Podcast Addict) or, if you prefer, direct on the website itself: www.brainson.org
