The Relationship Between Bioethics and U.S. Health Law: Past, Present, and Future
Abstract: This chapter explores the way bioethics is taught as part of U.S. health law. It begins with an overview of changes in several major textbooks in the field that cover bioethics and the law, in terms of their content and the way they organize the field. It then considers the problem of translation and, more specifically, the ways in which the ethical discourse gets translated into a much more formalist legal discourse, by discussing a number of recent court cases, including Sherley v. Sebelius and Isaacson v. Horne. It proceeds by assessing where the field is going, with emphasis on the increased interest in population-level bioethics and the law, including the increased recognition of intellectual property and drug development as topics for both disciplines. The chapter also examines the rise of libertarian bioethics in litigation by focusing on two circuit court cases: Abigail Alliance v. Eschenbach and Flynn v. Holder.

Rejoice! If you have a digibox, at least - if you don't, then go and get yourself one. For Lemmy's sake, they're only thirty quid or so from the supermarket. And, once you have one, you can watch More4, the new Channel 4, uh, channel, which launches tonight at 8pm. A new freeview digital channel, you say? Isn't there one of those launched every day? Ah, but More4 is going to screen The Daily Show (daily 8.30pm More4), Jon Stewart (pictured)'s scathing, scabrous political sketch comedy-comment hybrid. We've heard only good things about The Daily Show from our American friends, so we are squirming with excitement/anticipation like Rove deserves to squirm in front of the Supreme Court.
More4 will also be showing such TV-tastic masterpieces as The Sopranos (Mon 11.35pm More4) - surely the best programme of the last decade (we're deadly serious). Watch right from the very start the show that rings so true, real-life mobsters have been taped by the FBI saying how accurately it reflects their experiences.
If we're starting to sound like More4 cheerleaders, then, well, tough - we haven't finished lauding it yet. A Very Social Secretary (Mon 9pm More4) sounds like snide, blackly humorous fun at the expense of everyone involved in the sordid Quinn/Spectator/Nannygate affair (here's a link for anyone who's been living under a rock for the past year or so, and a link to the latest Blunkett scandal - we're anticipating the AVSS follow-up already - An Even More Social Secretary? The Social Secretary Utterly Incapable Of Learning From His Past Mistakes? A Guide Dog's Dinner Of An Affair?). AVSS is bound to be sharper than More4's other big premiere, the sixth series of West Wing (Fri 9pm More4). We've never 'got' the West Wing - it's smug, po-faced, smug, self-important, smug wish-fulfilment, and seems utterly divorced from relevance in a world of Bush, Blair, DeLay, Katrina, Osama and so on. Give us Commander In Chief (when it finally makes its way to these shores) instead any day.
Much as we loathe President Smugface Bartlett, however, we can't help but wish he had been in charge of the Katrina relief effort; watch how his real-life counterpart dealt with the disaster (with 'help' from every level of government, from the state to the federal) in The Hurricane That Shook America (Wed 9pm BBC2). Then, cheer yourself up by watching Lost (Wed 10pm C4) immediately afterwards - who is Ethan Rom? Thanks to a handy solver, we've discovered his name is an anagram of "Other Man", "More Than", or, in an offbeat tribute to Last Of The Summer Wine, "Them Nora" - or perhaps he's a Radiohead fan who just wants to get "Near Thom". Whatever, he's clearly a bit of a nutter, and has managed to take Charlie and Claire prisoner. Cripes!
If your digibox is broken, hey, at least you get to watch Hidden Lives: Super Size She (Mon 9pm Five), about the fascinating/disturbing world of female bodybuilding. There can't be a single Londoner who has failed to see the enormous Tube posters, newspaper ads and billboards Five has rolled out to support the Hidden Lives series, and the way in which they mess with our gender expectations. Joanna, the programme's subject, has bucked society's "you can never be too thin" pressure to transform herself into almost pure muscle; like a Sainsbury's Be Good To Yourself cereal bar, she's 97% fat-free. It's odd how subversive and challenging the idea of a muscle-bound woman is in our supposedly gender-equal times; tune in to see her side of the story (and a hell of a lot of dodgy lycra outfits, too).
There are more programmes about London during WWII on this week (People's War: London Calling, Tue 7pm BBC2; City At War, Thur 7.30pm ITV1); anyone would think there had been a major anniversary or something recently. Err ...
After such an emotional rollercoaster of a week, chill out of Friday Night With Jonathan Ross (Fri 10.35pm BBC1) - Katie and Peter Andre are his guests - after the season finale of Scrubs (Fri 8pm C4), when Carla and Turk finally tie the knot (without sting ray boots or fifty million Swarovski crystals, we're willing to bet). Oh yes, the wonderful Jimi Mistry guest stars in Spooks (Thur 9pm BBC1) - it's yet more terrorists this week. Then on Saturday it's the first studio concert for the X Factor (Sat 6pm/8.35pm ITV1), and one act will be sent packing by the judges. Who needs a social life, anyway?
One final note: all you
rich lucky sods out there with access to satellite/cable are to be treated to the third series of Kath And Kim (Wed 10.30pm LIVINGtv). Please, BBC, if you're reading this (ha!), hurry up and get series two on our screens ASAP - we need a new fix!

|Biographical Information
|Rock Tribe
|Defender of Roxtus
|Two swords
|Bara Magna
For Atakus's Review go to Atakus Reviews
Atakus was an Agori from the Rock Tribe. He worked as a guard for the city of Roxtus.
Early Life
Like all other Agori, Atakus came into being on Spherus Magna, where he spent his early life in the army of the Element Lord of Rock.
Core War
Atakus participated in the Core War following the discovery of Energized Protodermis in the Planet's Core. However, the liquid had a number of destructive qualities about it. This meant that it was unstable and led to The Shattering occurring as a result. Atakus took shelter during this Cataclysm and ended up being kept on Bara Magna; unlike a number of unfortunate other warriors who were trapped on Bota Magna.
Post Core War
When The Shattering occured, the Bota Magna area that the Rock Army had resided in was forced out of the ground by an Energized Protodermis burst; that slit the planet into three segments. Much to the Rock Army's dismay, they were cut off from their homeland.
As a result, the Skrall and Rock Agori were left open to Baterra attacks as they began to take residence in the land that surrounded their former home. Atakus served as a guard at a fortress and survived a Baterra attack.
However, as the Baterra attacks began to occur more frequently, members of the Leader Class were soon picked off and killed by their enemies until Tuma was the only one remaining. At this point he ordered the Skrall retreated South, away from the Baterra menace.
Migration South
Tuma led the Skrall and Rock Agori as they migrated further south. The Rock Army soon took up residence in Roxtus and made attempts to set up connections with the other Tribes. The Skrall swiftly forgot about the Baterra threat and joined the Glatorian Social System.
However, it soon became apparent that the Skrall were much better warriors than the Glatorian and began to dominate the Arena Matches that settled Colonial Dispites. As the Skrall began to win all of the Arena Matches, Tuma began to consider the other Tribes as inferior to the Skrall.
As a result, Tuma tightened security at Roxtus, fortifying the city and employing Atakus as one of the guards.
Following a dispute betweent the Rock Tribe and the Jungle Tribe over a Water Spring, a Skrall was sent to fight Glatorian Gresh in an Arena Match for the Spring. Atakus was ordered go with the Skrall to Vulcanus. After the Skrall won the battle they parted ways and Atakus went back to Roxtus.
Atakus was encountered with an Agori that was sent by Raanu to gain aid in defense for the village. He wanted help from the Skrall. Atakus told the Agori that the Skralls' aid was for sale, so the Agori payed a great amount of Thornax. Atakus gave the Agori his seal to show that he was a friend of the Skrall. The Agori then moved on to a Skrall so he could get the seal for the Glatorian contract.
BIONICLE.com Stats
Abilities and Traits
Atakus was a fierce warrior, and a very skilled warrior. He was overly confident, but also weak against a smart opponent. Atakus rellied on brute force rather than tactics.
Atakus carries two swords powered by technology alien to Bara Magna.
- Atakus was released as one of the six small set of early 2009. He had 13 pieces.

7 Ways To Boost The Metabolism
First of all.. What is BMR?
Simply put, BMR - Basel Metabolic Rate is that number (rate) of calories your body uses per day to perform your daily tasks as well as bodily functions such as your heart, lungs, other organs and digestive system.
Here are 6 ways to increase your metabolism to it's optimum.
1. High intensity interval cardio, - HIT or HIIT will increase your metabolic rate and keep your metabolism working for hours after. By incorporating HIIT into your regular workout, your body will be under much more strain than usual and therefore needs longer to recover keeping your metabolism going. Low intensity cardio is great for burning metabolism whilst you are doing it, but when you stop, your metabolic rate reverts back to normal.
2. Lifting weights is even better than HITT for keeping that metabolism going after you have finished lifting. Again it is because the body is under strain and needs more time to recover than from HIIT.
3. Food can make a difference. There is no real evidence as yet. However Cruciferous/fibrous vegetables are thought to rev up the metabolism as well as spices such as chili/chili powder.
4. Green tea is a booster of the metabolism, although you need to drink 3 to 4 cups a day to reap the benefits. It is very popular with the fitness world but there are many different brands out there so take care to buy a better quality tea for maximum effect. Loose whole leaves are the best as quality is impaired when processed as in all foods.
5. Sleep is important, not getting enough sleep can is so many negatives when it comes to bodybuilding. Research shows that metabolism is affected by lack of sleep affecting glucose and cortisol levels.
6. Eat more food - Your metabolism slowly adapts to the amount of food it has. By slowly adding a few extra calories or carbohydrates a week (anywhere from 5g-50g) you are able to increase your bodies BMR. This is also true for restricting your food - your body adapts to lower calories and slows down the metabolism. This is also known as metabolic damage or metabolic adaptation.
7. Increase muscle mass - muscle tissue requires more calories to sustain than fat tissue therefore the more muscle mass you have the higher your BMR will be.

It's been just over two months since I came to Yale from NUS to complete the NUS Masters Double-degree programme with Yale School of Management, but it sure feels like a life time when I think about the experiences and memories I've gained.
I've been fortunate to travel from China to Singapore, and then to the United States, in pursuit of knowledge and meaningful experiences. I chose NUS MBA because of the diversity of students, global experiences that are part of the NUS MBA programme, Singapore's strategic location and the dynamic format of the MBA programme.
Today, as I look back to the time that's just gone by, I cannot help but reflect upon the rich experiences and benefits of taking up the NUS MBA double-degree Masters in Advanced Management (MAM) programme at Yale University.
The innumerable case studies, field trips, classroom discussions, projects, management practicum etc. provided me countless opportunities to network and learn about the growing Southeast Asian market. I have to say it makes you different and stand out from the peers at Yale due to the experience and insights about Asian markets.
First major draw for me to take up MAM was the academic experience. Yale campus is beautiful and offers tons of resources. I still remember my very first visit to the Sterling Memorial Library at Yale, the world's second largest university libraries, with a huge collection of everything from manuscripts from 18th centuries, to books, CDs, and other multimedia resources.
Yale also has some of the world 's top professors. The Nobel Prize winner in Economics this year, Robert Shiller and the Nobel Prize winner in Medicine, Dr James E. Rothman, are both from Yale. Imagine the thrill of meeting them, sitting in their lectures, discussing with them and having them as your mentor!
Second major advantage of this programme is the course format itself. Spanned across nine months, the Masters in Advanced Management programme is exclusively designed to bring together the most promising management students from elite non-US schools to train them to become future leaders in the most real and practical way. For instance, I participated in a class project led by the most popular marketing Professor Ravi Dahr at Yale School of Management, in which students are guided by professors who serve as mentors rather than teachers, and students have to themselves, independently provide innovative and creative solutions to real issues. As an Asian, this is a great opportunity to learn about the vast U.S. market, like the U.S. Hispanic consumer behaviour on the real case sponsored by the big-name companies. This exposure to rich environment has largely improved my future professional outlook.
Last but not the least, I've made some best friends and most memorable relationships during my time at Yale. Between the variety of club activities, social events, company visits, group projects, and team meetings, my time at Yale just flew by! NUS is the strategic partner university of Yale in Singapore to join the ranks of the world's leading business schools in the Yale partner network. So if you're in NUS Business School, you should NOT miss this great opportunity!
Here's hoping my peers will make most of these opportunities by NUS Business School, while I continue my globetrotting!

Clara Barton
Clara Barton was a great woman of her day who would forge the humanity side of this nation with her
medical-nursing abilities and aid to those in need. She would begin caring for those wounded in the
Civil War until the African War of 1899-1902. She was the founder of the Red Cross in 1881. This
foundation would grow and be there for every disaster and war since it's inception. The woman of
great vision brought the humanity tht we see and that which will raise her to greatness.

Fun Monday assignment Feb. 4 set by Tiggerlane from
Here's Da Rules.
Have you heard of The Bucket List? Well, that's what I want from you! Make a list of things you want to do before you die. It must be at least five items - and you can make it as long as you desire. Photos are optional. And let's hear about some of the wackiest, most bizarre to-do's on your Bucket List!
That last sentence brings a smile of delight to my face, for someone like me an invitation to be wacky and bizarre is in itself a dream come true so here goes, in no particular order;
Picture this, a luxury suite in a five star hotel where I am being attended by a beautiful lady, a sort of cross between
Imagine the joy of being awoken from a deep sleep by a beautiful smiling young lady with the news that you have won $5 million in Lotto, ah, I can't get the smile of my face just thinking about it.
I am not foolish enough to think that money can buy you health and happiness, even though I can still see that lovely young lady with the $5 million, but in my bucket I am going to have a morning when I get up with no aches or pains, my eyesight and hearing as good as in my youth.
As if by magic I am going to be transported back to September 1994, this is a couple of months before my world fell apart when my marriage broke up, but knowing what I now know there is no way I am going to let that happen, while I can't remember a lot about those 14 years I recall how well BHP and Commonwealth Bank have performed, so that should keep the bucket topped up with cash.
I have enjoyed some wonderful meals over the years but there have been a couple of stand outs, like a delicious soup full of sheep's eyes, a still pulsating cobra's heart removed at the table with great flair, and everybody's favourite, sushi, uncooked bloody fish!!! thank the lord I've got that bucket.
Oh by the way did you see the news headlines, peace has broken out in the middle east and throughout the rest of the world too, famine has been replaced by happy faces smiling and well fed every where in the world, now I'm not going to claim credit for these events but this bucket full of fertilizer helped the crops grow I'm sure.
Now you can go and read about all the folks who keep their feet a little more firmly on the ground, hope you all have a Fun Monday.

Prince Louis has been captured giving a huge grin as he was held by the Duchess of Cambridge, in the latest official photo released from his christening.
The photograph was taken by Matt Porteous in the garden at Clarence House, following the prince's baptism at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace on 9 July.
The royal family said they "hope that everyone enjoys this lovely photograph of Prince Louis as much as they do".
The latest photo comes hours after the royal family released four official images taken by British photographer Matt Holyoak, featuring the whole family.
In one photo, Kate and William are joined by their children, along with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, and the Middleton family including Kate's sister Pippa Matthews and her husband James.
Members of the royal family appear in another photo without the Middletons, a third photo features the Cambridge five and the fourth photo is an image of just Kate and Louis.

Much Ado
Entry 304 posted in: 3. Gamebits
Things haven't been moving a lot on this website and that is because some rather disturbing things have happened in my life lately. If you ask what it is I'll answer 'none of your business', my psych knows and that is enough.
Ask me another question then, for instance 'what is the best computer game... ever' and I'll give you an answer in a split second without hesitation. I'll give you three answers even...
On three: Tetris, the original (1985). The game is so well known that I don't need to elaborate on that, I hope. I still have a soft spot for the original DOS version that can be found here, don't forget to read the story behind the game!
On two: before I had a DOS PC I bought me an Amstrad CPC, well not really an Amstrad but a Schneider that was the same piece of equipment but streamlined for the European market.
With the box came a copy of Spindizzy (1986) and that is probably the best game ever to be produced for that piece of machinery. The object is simple, you are a 'Gyroscopic ExploRAtion Landing Device' shaped as a gyroscope, a ball or as an inverted pyramid and your goal is to map all 386 levels of the world you have been warped into and to get back to the starting point. Your ship uses a lot of energy but that can be recuperated by grabbing the jewels that are lying around.
The main problem was that the maze was so big that you needed to make:
a: a detailed roadmap of the explored levels in the game
b: a route description of what to do in what level in order not to get out of energy.
Spindizzy was made by Paul Shirley who found that: "Fitting 386 levels into 11K was satisfying." The original game can still be played if you install a CPC emulator, for instance WinAPE but apparently a Linux remake is in the works and will be issued in 2007. (Let's hope it will also hit Windows, although I fear that the remake will be slightly bigger than the original 11 Kb, yep, you've read that right eleven, not eleven thousand.)
And what about the best game ever then? Well, we'll get to spot one later on.

Business welcomes NSW Govt's commitment to cut red tape
NSW's leading business organisation, NSW Business Chamber has welcomed the NSW Government's response to the Jobs Summit and its commitment to cut red tape on businesses by $500 million by June 2011.
The Chamber has also welcomed the commitment to set targets and regularly publish reports on cutting red tape.
The NSW Government's commitment to reduce red tape supports a six point plan NSW Business Chamber released in the lead up to the Jobs Summit in February.
"Businesses in NSW are doing it tough and any steps to stop them from being buried in red tape is a step in the right direction and is warmly welcomed," said Kevin MacDonald, CEO of NSW Business Chamber.
"Red tape stifles competition, innovation, productivity and employment the very things business should be concentrating on during an economic downturn."
"We were concerned that the business community's burden with red tape was falling on deaf ears but clearly the government has been listening and is prepared to act.
"NSW Business Chamber has been arguing for the need to set binding targets to cut the red tape burden on business owners. The government's target of cutting red tape by $500 million by June 2011 is the right course of action."
MacDonald said that there was further opportunity for additional savings in excess of $500 million considering that Victoria has a target of $700 million by 2016. Nonetheless the Premier has sent a strong clear signal that the government is committed to ongoing cost savings for business.
NSW Business Chamber further welcomed making red tape reduction a condition of agency CEOs' performance contracts.
"We would like to see the Minister for Regulatory Reform be given the ultimate responsibility for delivering this program of measurable targets to cut business costs." MacDonald concluded.

The competency framework will be useful in all human resource activities within the sector, from setting job descriptions and performance benchmarks to developing training and professional development plans. As a second output of the project, twenty occupations were identified ascore occupations within the international trade sector.
In 2015–2016, Tourism HR Canada embarked on an ambitious consulting project with the Forum for International Trade Training (FITT) to help align their training programs with the recently updated competency standards developed the previous year. This opportunity is a direct result of Tourism HR Canada's past work and growing relationship with FITT, and is an example of our capacity to develop skills training and competency profiles in economic sectors outside of tourism. This project continues as we develop a current and practical series of training modules and support material for the global business practitioner.
As part of FPHRC's efforts to improve standardization of the food processing sector, Tourism HR Canada produced a report outlining the feasibility and business case for development of certification programs in the food processing industry, developed and updated essential skills profiles for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point Coordinator and Sanitation Worker, and developed a voluntary online HACCP certification program.

In addition, a report on maintaining the standard and how to utilize it to develop a certification program was developed.

Tourism HR Canada, in partnership with Colleges and Institutes Canada (CICan), initiated a year-long research and capacity building project in Tanzania as part of the federally-funded Improving Skills and Training for Employment program.

Tourism HR Canada participated in a six day mission to provide information and advice on establishing a tourism sector council in Bangladesh based on the Canadian experience.

It was a case of joy and despair for the North Wales senior men's team at the Settle Hills 11.3km Inter counties Championships.
They would have been more than happy with the silver team medals beforehand but, to miss out on the gold by just one point left them wondering; what if?
Still, an excellent result for North Wales competing in ideal dry and calm weather conditions on the quite fast running course.
North Wales were led home by 2010 British Fell Running Champion Tim Davies who finished 5th in a time of 48:59, with 11th placed Matt Roberts 49:59 just ahead of 12th placed Eryri club colleague Richard Roberts 50:04.
They were the North's three scorers and lost out to Yorkshire for the gold medals by just the single point, 25 to 26, with Northern Ireland taking the bronze medals with 29 points.
African athlete Wegene Tafase, running for Scotland West, won the event in a time of 46.06 ahead of North West Counties Nick Swinburn 46:23.
The Inter-Counties Championships held on Saturday.
In the first race of the day, North Wales Eryri athlete Bronwen Jenkinson won the bronze medal in the under 16 women's race while Menai T&F athlete Iolo Hughes just missed out on the gold medal in the under 18's men's race, losing out in a sprint finish with Yorkshire's Max Wharton by two seconds.
Iolo and Colwyn Bay's Jacob Griffith also won team silvers.
Overall, a well organised event in scenic Yorkshire.

Hangsterfer's has developed S-787, a REACH-compliant, non-hazardous cutting fluid designed to increase surface quality and extend tool life.
S-787 is designed for machining in the toughest applications and eliminates common problems such as foam, residue and staining. "Third-party testing facilities have verified that S-787 extends tool life, reduces cutting forces and improves surface quality by at least 40% over the competition," said Jones. S-787 accomplishes this through its chemical makeup and was designed with the complicated machining process in mind. At the micro level, the formulation of S-787 fills in gaps and reduces oxides in aluminum, alloy steels and titanium applications. It is also a low-consumption lubricant that extends sump life. "Many cutting fluids need to be changed at least every six months, but S-787 can stay in the machine for two years or more, depending on the application. These qualities contribute to cost savings over time," said a company spokesperson.
The most advanced metalworking lubricants no longer require costly additives. Instead, products like S-787 are designed to be bio-hard at the molecular level. The chemical makeup of S-787 prevents the growth of dangerous and costly bacteria and fungi, so that no biocides or fungicides need to be added to the machine. This equates to less down time, and again greater efficiency.
Because the manufacturing industry is facing increasing scrutiny from national and international regulatory bodies, Hangsterfer develops its products to be safe for workers and for the environment. S-787 is a bio-renewable product and is REACh, RoHS, SCAQMD and VOC compliant. Under the new GHS regulations, product safety data sheets are required to show pictograms for all hazardous materials. S-787 is free of all hazardous pictograms including the health hazard pictogram depicted as an exploding body.
S-787 has a variety of applications and is especially good for aluminum, composites, nickel, stainless steel, titanium, copper, magnesium, molybdenum, tungsten, zirconium and their alloys. It also holds a long list of aerospace and medical approvals.

HAPPY TOWN: 1.05 "This Is Why We Stay"
HAPPY TOWN: 1.06 "Questions and Antlers"
It's almost unfortunate. While I might still have my annoyances about the show, it really is ramping up with some decent material just as we're approaching the end.
Seriously. In the last two episodes, I've actually been quite interested in what's going on. Particularly because they're focusing on the mystery of the Magic Man. It's true, this week we did kinda side-step that with our focus on Dave (poor Dave), but even he saw the tomb of cages that clearly were possessions of the Magic Man and home to his victims.
Too bad he's dead now and no one will know.
Do you think Dave would have killed Tommy? Well, he was quite out of his head. But sadly, no, I don't think he was actually going to shoot Tommy, and he was just using the gun as a scare device. Yes, to me, Tommy made a rash decision, and it's unfortunate.
That being said, I wish in the last few episodes they had spent more time on the Tommy/Dave dynamic. I could understand why Tommy wouldn't want to see him, but having that extra attachment to their life-long friendship really would have given Dave's death that extra umph. Man, I'm morbid.
Meanwhile, I'm disappointed this week that we didn't get more on Tommy's wife's memory. Didn't at the end of last week's episode she told us that she remembered? I guess she just remembered the water memory. And yes, that was one creepy scene (very Cabin by the Lake, if you remember that movie) and the fish-thing didn't help. It creeps me out that that is now in the police station.
Speaking of police, what do we think about the detective with the camper? Is he really just a man who wants to solve the case? I doubt it. But I can't pinpoint what he really wants. But then again, he's a perfect person to think is the bad guy when we find out who the real bad guy is later. But dude, the crepe thing was creepy. I hope those kids really do skip town.
Finally, Henley. Man, she certainly took a new role this episode. I adored watching all the struggles she had last week trying to get out of town–or at least the money out of town. But really, watching her torture Greggy was kinda freaky. Nice guitar case of torture devices, eh? I mean, true, she could have done worse (think Angel in season one when they had that ring that made vamps invicible), but it was effective.
Plus, there was an interesting plot twist: the fact that they're trying to get Henley's contact in town. I wonder if we'll be seeing that person. Or if that person just might be associated with the Magic Man.
There are many unanswered questions, which is better than in the first few episodes, and while the show could still use some work, I have to say that I'm actually kinda looking forward to the next episode. I hope some of you Happy Town fans will be pleased.
Considering where it started, I certainly am.

Planting the Sundrop Flower
The Sundrop flower is one of the easy to grow flowers of the world. They require very little care and have a beautiful bright yellow blossom. The Sundrop is a wild flower that does something unusual. When the sun goes down their flowers close up. Being a wild flower, the Sundrop does spread very quickly and some people see it as an unwelcomed addition to their garden. Planting the Sundrop is a very easy process.
Start from Seed
The Sundrop plan can be started from seed and planted directly into the ground in the Spring season after the frost has left the ground. Plant them in sunny locations that drain well.
Space 12 Inches Apart
When you sow these seeds directly to the ground, make sure there is at least 12 inches of space in between each one. If you are planting from a potted plant, keep the 12 inch spacing but also set the plant into the ground as deep as the dirt enclosure they were in.
Water Well
Once the seeds, or plant, has been sown into the the soil, make sure it is watered well. Do not leave it in a puddle of water, but the ground should be soaked.

Die-hard-ism: Being such a hardcore fan of something that a huge chunk of your identify is defined by how much you profess your love for it. Die-hard-ism manifests itself in different ways for different people. There are some who are die-hard hobbyists, others who devote themselves wholeheartedly to Dungeons & Dragons, or knitting, or Brazilian jiu-jitsu—whatever it may be, their minds are constantly preoccupied with that hobby.
Now, while the demographic of people who are tenacious crochet enthusiasts is undoubtedly quite tiny, there's one group of "die-hards" we've probably all encountered at some point in our lives, and that's the die-hard sports fan.
The die-hard sports fan has an undeniable dedication to their team and sticks by them through thick and thin. They know the starting lineup by heart, the bench players, the teams each individual player was a part of before. They know the different plays each team likes to employ, the different strategies used against opposing teams. They know the coaching staff, assistant coaches, prospective trades, the blood types of players, where their kids go to school, etc.
Sometimes, it gets borderline creepy. Like Robert DeNiro from The Fan levels of take-it-down-a-notch.
Barring any creepy stalker-ish behavior, the enthusiasm of some fans is something to be admired in some cases.
1. Like this Turkish man who was so devoted to his team he came up with a creative solution to being banned from the stadium for 12 months. He rented a crane.
Denizlispor Fc Of Turkey handed One-Year Ban On its supporter. To go round the ban, the Fan built a crane outside the Stadium with sky-view Of the Stadium. His club that faces relegation ended up beating Gaziantepspor Fc 5-0 … In life, when a door closes, the Skies open. pic.twitter.com/cRLyP2gAnb
— Donald B Kipkorir (@DonaldBKipkorir) April 30, 2018
Look at that wave, you know he's soaking up the praise from his adoring public.
He became an instant legend, and rightfully so.
He didn't let anything get between him and watching his team play live.
He arguably had the best seat in the house. And if you believe in luck and that sort of thing, I mean, his antics might could be attributed to helping his team win 5-0.
Winning teams aren't the only ones who get unconventional love from their fans, however. Just ask Cleveland Browns fans.
2. In 2017, the Browns managed to have a "perfect" record. And by "perfect," I mean a perfect losing record. To lament the fact that their team went 0-16, Browns fans decided to throw a mourning parade complete with tombstones, beer, and an "at least it can't get worse" attitude.
There were motorcades and marches. Men in briefs waving the old star spangled banner. T-Rex costumes. Giant inflatable swans. Tons of beer.
And self-deprecation, lots and lots of self-deprecation.
Some Browns fans and players were insulted by the 0-16 parade.
That parade is a joke don't call yourself a true browns fan if you go to that thing! Going 0-16 was embarrassing enough as a player. That is like adding fuel to the fire and it is completely wrong!
— Emmanuel Ogbah (@EmanOgbah) January 6, 2018
And even though they might be mad that these fans were pointing out the fact that they didn't win a single game in an entire season, you can't say that they aren't dedicated.
There are players on this team who want to play and win for the Browns and The Land. Parading around isn't encouraging a change, it's more so encouraging players to avoid the opportunity to play here. 1-31 isn't what we want to be known for but we won't stop fighting to win here.
— Feast Mode #55 (@Danny_Shelton55) January 6, 2018
They're all decked out in official Browns gear, and still managed to have a good time despite the fact that their team was the biggest loser in the NFL that year. If the players want that to change, then they just need to start winning some games, I guess. It's humiliating, but it doesn't seem like the fans are mad, and anyone who goes through such great lengths to show out for a losing team is probably going to come back and cheer them on next season.
3. Some fans take their love of superstar players a little too far, and when it comes to superstars, it doesn't get much bigger than Cristiano Ronaldo. The footballer found himself stormed by fans on the field who ran out to plant a smooch on his face, while another snapped a selfie with the Portuguese phenom.
Ronaldo didn't look too happy, and it's hard to blame him. The man has a ridiculous work ethic and his training regimen is challenging for even the world's top athletes to endure—all so he can be on the top of his game. Must be annoying when you're just trying to be the best athlete you can be and a bunch of people storm the field to get some of your star power in person.
4. People who storm the field aren't always there to just snap a picture. Like this amazing Russian superfan who couldn't wait for a penalty kick to take place. So he decided to score on the goal himself.
5. When it comes to going to extreme lengths, soccer fans seem to have the market cornered. At the Polish cup, somehow a bunch of spectators smuggled in hundreds of flares that they lit up and threw on the field, creating a scary, dark, black cloud of smoke.
6. It's a pretty well-known fact that Matthew McConaughey is a Texas A&M alum and an avid Longhorns fan. So the fact that he delivered this inspirational pump-up speech to the team before a game, one that looks like it's straight out of a movie, is just too, too perfect.
7. Then there was this guy who loved his Flamengo soccer club so much that owning a jersey just wasn't enough—he had to tattoo it on his skin.
8. Speaking of bad fan tattoos, there was this Patriots superfan who inked up his entire dome to pay homage to the Brady-Belichick dynasty.
9. Some fans are so devoted to their team that they're willing to make some serious sacrifices in order to ensure their victory. For Sudhakar, a die-hard cricket fan, he sacrificed he decided that a physical sacrifice at a nearby Hindu temple would help his country's national team overcome the crazy deficit they suffered at the hands of Australia.
That sacrifice? His tongue.
The young man caused permanent damage to his tongue and he'll require years of therapy in order to speak again. Also, as it turns out, his sacrifice was in vain: India ended up losing to Australia and were kicked out of the World Cup.
10. Sometimes, super fans aren't just violent towards themselves, but the objects of their desire. Which was the case with Ruth Steinhagen.
The insurance company typist was obsessed with baseball player Eddie Watkus. When the first baseman was traded from the Cubs to the Phillies, Ruth couldn't forgive him. So she hatched a plan: lure him to her hotel room and then shoot him in the chest with a rifle.
11. This list took a dark turn, but here's a friendly reminder that fans usually channel their enthusiasm into more lighthearted projects that don't involve planned assassination attempts – like Don Martini's amazing woodwork replica of Giants stadium.
Now that's dedication – the kind that doesn't make you want to immediately call the police, either.
