Oscar testifying the reason of having that no.11 jersey.
Oscar testifying the reason of having that no.11 jersey.
The season starts in less than 10 days time; let's take a look at reigning European champions-Chelsea's challenges and preparation for the 2012/2013 season. Chelsea had been one of the busiest clubs around this summer carrying out some major signings/changes in the squad. Last season comprised of breaking strikers and parting managers resulting in a 6th place finish in the premier league to a defensive winning performance in the Champions league backing Roberto Di Matteo's evolution mantra.
Keeping up with high hopes of Chelsea fans this season it's been a high spending transfer window so far. As last season's big guns like Didier Drogba, Jose Bosingwa, and Salomon Kalou have all left the club, Di Matteo's chances of succeeding have certainly been boosted by Abramovich's clear backing in the signings of Marin, Hazard and Oscar. Don't be surprised if at least two further signings this window is made to strengthen the areas such as right back. So far Chelsea has focused only on adding to the attack. The main focuses of the club this summer seems to be finding younger, more versatile players.
Signings to watch: Eden hazard Ligue 1 Player of the Year signed for Chelsea after a long drawn out game of £32million. He's one of the elite young talents in Europe, and it's certainly possible that he will adapt quickly. It is highly expected that he would immediately play a pivotal role and will be a constant player in the first team.
Next up we have Oscar,an attacking midfielder formerly of Brazilian club, Internacional, he finished last season with 13 goals and assists, proving that he can finish as well as create. With his recent star performance in Olympics 2012 he has certainly shown his football maturity, technique, pace, passing ability, movement and bravery.
Marko Marin is a player who is only 23 years old with considerable playing age ahead of him and he is hungry to prove himself. A 'smart' signing for Chelsea at 6.5m pound price. He promises to excite the supporters with many moments of genuine magic thanks to his skill set.
Assets from past : Apart from the new signings assets like Frank Lampard a penalty kick specialist, could suffer from serious rotation due to his age but not to be written off. The club's greatest athlete and Player of the Year last season, Ramires is naturally a dynamic central midfielder offering Chelsea a unique tactical option. Mata is expected to be significantly more creative than last year's backing a more of assisting role.
Fernando Torres will be Chelsea's focal point. His late season resurgence and Golden Boot winning showing at Euro 2012 has certainly returned the much needed confidence. Carrying forward the legacy of Drogba will be the ultimate test of Torres, who has not reached his incredible, prolific and big-game (scoring openers) exploits since his twenty-two goals in thirty-two matches for Liverpool in 2009/2010. If he continues his performance from the Euros into the premier league, he could have that awesome 20+ goal season he is in dire need of.
The 'new look' Chelsea is looking very promising and new signings will prove to assist Chelsea in their quest for sustainability. They have replaced their more physical players with small players with good passing and agile ability; possibly we could see a new Chelsea mentality playing tika taka football this season. Previewing where Chelsea will finish in the Premier League is a real paradox, with Chelsea have yet to gel in the pre-season – they lost to the MLS All-Stars as well as to AC Milan. Chelsea certainly seems to prove a tough test for the top teams this year with new faces filling up the vacant position fronting well organised, dynamic and resilient picture.
Likely XI: Cech; Ivanovic, Luiz, Terry, Cole; Mikel, Lampard, Ramires, Mata, Hazard; Torres
Highly unexpected that RDM will stick with this line up much often, look out for frequent rotations as he showed in the previous season.
Speaking on ITV, Drogba (the eventual match winner) said it was 'written a long time ago' that the Club would beat Bayern Munich to become the first London club to win the Champions League. Call them lucky, opportunistic or whatever you want but let's face it; it's hard not to imagine that Chelsea were destined to win the Champions League Saturday night at Allianz arena Munich. The day 19th may 2012 belong to underdogs who colored Munich blue .
Chelsea have made history by becoming the Kings of Europe after a captivating match against Bayern Munich which ended with the Blues winning a penalty shootout 4-3 after the game had ended 1-1. A team that many had thought drained two months ago is now the European champions. Chelsea did it behind the heroics of keeper Petr Cech and Didier Drogba, they did it with an interim coach- Roberto Di Matteo, and they did it without four major players (suspended). They held their turf and nerves against The Bavarians, who came hotfooting from every possible angle.
Bayern Munich largely held the upper hand throughout yet were unable to capitalize until Thomas Müller headed in with seven minutes remaining which beat Cech by some abrupt bounce, and it looked like the trophy was heading to Munich for a fifth time but Chelsea's strength of character rose to the prow once again when Didier Drogba who had other ideas, the Ivorian leveling in the 88th minute with a powerful header from Mata's corner. Bayern had a fantastic opportunity to restore their lead early in extra-time when they were awarded a penalty, but Petr Cech saved it from his former Chelsea teammate Arjen Robben who looked nothing less than dejected.
After a few clashes in the remaining period of overtime, it was time for certain heartbreak shootout.
Bayern Munich again spurted ahead 3-1, but Chelsea again restored parity 3-3. The teams were ready with their final kicks. Bastian Schweinsteiger fluffed, finding the post and it fell to Drogba to seal Chelsea's fate, which he did in style giving Chelsea the title they failed to win in a similar shootout to Manchester United in 2008 in Moscow. He's been the man of big moments for Chelsea these last couple of months. He's started every decisive match. He's always been there for Chelsea. Drogba has conquered all at Stamford Bridge – the premier league titles, the Carling cup, the FA cup and now the Champions League. He has nothing to prove to anyone anymore, a Chelsea legend forever.
For Bayern the defeat was particularly bitter as not only have they failed to win the Bundesliga, but they also badly lost the German Cup final to Dortmund. Moreover it also ended FC Bayern Munich's hopes of becoming the first team to win the competition in their own stadium.
In a nutshell: wasteful Bayern were edged out by an effective and spirited Chelsea side. Munich launched thirty-five shots at them, not counting the penalty kick tiebreaker. They earned twenty corner kicks. Chelsea had one corner, and they scored off of it. Chelsea had done the improbable, if not the impossible. They were simply good.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo proposed the tuition plan in January.
Cuomo announced April 8 that the Excelsior Scholarship, a first-of-its-kind in the nation program will provide tuition-free college at New York's public colleges and universities to families making up to $125,000 a year. Now, families whose incomes are less than $100,000 can avail no-fee education at the schools of the State University of New York (SUNY) starting this fall. In the fall of 2018 it will become available for those making up to $110,00 per year and by fall 2019 it will be fully available for families making $125,000 per year. "Most students need room and board, that's where the big expenses are".
After graduation, students who are given the scholarship must then remain living and working in NY for a minimum of the same number of years they had been given the funding.
The Excelsior Scholarship is not meant to replace other merit scholarships which can be used for expenses other than tuition. The program has no age limit and once students receive the scholarship, they must be enrolled in college full-time, average at least 30 credits per year and meet the GPA requirement for their program.
Crabill says the campus can absorb extra students, although she says depending on numbers, there could be issues down the road.
Under terms of the deal, the program would be phased in over three years.
Cuomo also responded to critics who said the tuition-free scholarship program for SUNY would hurt New York's vast network of private colleges. If they don't then the scholarships would convert to student loans.
The state will increase spending on higher education to cover the cost of the program. That would cover about 25,000 students who attend a 4 year school... but an estimated 200,000 students would be eligible.
The scholarship covers tuition, which is now $6,470 at the State University of New York (SUNY) for one year of study toward a bachelor's degree. Adults entering college for the first time are also eligible. He said, "This program does nothing to address the needs of countless low-income students and will only end up impacting a small percentage of CUNY students". Well it's becoming a reality for middle class students in NY.
"If Skoufis thinks 80% of all NY families is too few students, he should go back to school himself and take a remedial math course", Azzopardi said.

This is an excellent and erudite collection of essays centered around William Marshal's career in Ireland. William Marshal came into the lordship of Leinster when he married Isabel, the daughter of William Fitz Gilbert de Clare, a.k.a. Strongbow, the Anglo-Norman lord who first penetrated Ireland in the late twelfth century. Marshal spent a good part of the rest of his life securing his holdings in Ireland and working to turn them into a profitable enterprise. This collection starts with a brief account of Marshal's life and character and then proceeds to closely examine a number of aspects of his lordship of Leinster. Many of the essays herein rely on archaeological evidence. This is inevitable where there is such a paucity of written documentation.
Sadly, two of the authors of this collection, John Bradley of Maynooth University and Billy Colfer of the Christian Brothers' School, Wexford, died before its publication.
William Marshal was the son of a down-at-heel noblemen from Berkshire. Seeking to make his fortune, William trained as a knight and went off to excel on the tournament circuit in Germany, where he caught the eye of Eleanor of Aquitaine. She brought him into the court of England and he soon made himself indispensible, earning renown as a warrior both in France and on crusade. Richard Lionheart rewarded William by giving him the hand of Isabel de Clare, the heiress to the Leinster lordship. They were married in 1189, when she was seventeen and he was around forty-two.
David Crouch holds up Marshal as the model of the ideal knight as described by Arnaut-Guilhem de Marsan in his ensenhamen. William was very brave and skilled in the arts of war, and his steadfastness and loyalty were legendary even in his own time. But the ideal knight also had to show "courtliness." William strove to cultivate this quality even though he was rough around the edges and probably functionally illiterate. Crouch recounts the numerous humiliations that William suffered at the hands of King John and how he bore them with quiet self-control, so exhibiting another of Marsan's qualities of the ideal knight. Marshal was a big man both physically and in his stature as a knight, courtier and lord. After the death of King John he acted as regent for the underage Henry III.
Adrian Empey offers a look at the accretion and planning of the desmesne in the lordship of Leinster. Marshal made the town of Kilkenny the seat of his earldom. He took over the lordship of his wife's inheritance and energetically worked to complete the work of consolidation that his deceased father-in-law, Strongbow, had begun. Empey poses the question: "To what extent were the Leinster desmesnes the product of careful seigneurial planning as distinct from hit-and-miss opportunism or the random outcome of marcher warfare?" (73). He answers his own question by asserting that the archipelago of castles and holdings that Marshal constructed to secure his holdings shows itself to be part of a long-range strategy, what Empey calls "The Marshal Plan." Anyone having a fief from the king, or anyone else, felt the need to quickly assert his right to it because if such assertion were left too long the weight of custom might leave it permanently alienated from him. The initial form that feudal holdings took in Ireland was important because once in place they could become fixed by customary usage.
In 1193 or soon after, Geoffrey Fitz Robert, a vassal of Marshal, founded the priory at Kells in County Kilkenny. It was peopled by monks from Bodmin in Cornwall and was a daughter house of the Augustinian priory at Bodmin. Therefore it was part of the movement by the Anglo-Normans to supplant the native church. Miriam Clyne provides an extensive description of archaeology done on the priory in the 1970s and 80s. 18,000 artefacts have been recovered from the site.
Clyne's article is followed by a short piece by Daniel Tietzsch-Tyler using archaeological evidence to describe the various stages in the building of the Kells Priory from its founding up to ca. 1500.
There is further concentration on architecture in Ben Murtagh's essay on the great circular tower that William Marshal built at Pembroke in Wales. This tower incorporated advances in military architecture that were happening throughout Europe and in both Wales and Ireland. Dublin Castle, started by King John, was a similar stronghold. Marshal would have been familiar with these innovations and he built a matching tower at the entrance to Waterford Harbor. Both of these served as defensive bastions guarding the sea approaches to his possessions and so securing the vital lifeline to Britain, but they also functioned as lighthouses. The tower at Hook Head in Waterford is now the oldest functioning lighthouse in the world. This is a long and immensely thorough look at castle building both in Ireland, Britain and France in the thirteenth century. Murtagh demonstrates a comprehensive command of the archaeological sources and vocabulary.
Tietzsch-Tyler, who specializes in archaeological reconstruction drawing, returns with a detailed look at archaeological evidence regarding Kilkenny Castle as it was in 1395 on the visit to Ireland of Richard II. The castle was started by William Marshal but there is virtually nothing left of the original. The author himself laments, "the difficulty when attempting to visualise the outer defences of Kilkenny Castle lies in their complete absence, both from the ground today and, at least in any obvious way, from the earliest maps and plans of the castle" (193). Kilkenny appears to have been a concentric castle, i.e., it had several defensive rings. This was probably a development over time and the original castle of William Marshal would not have had this feature. The Anglo-Norman invaders put considerable energy and resources into building these fortifications which were effectively invulnerable to attacks by the native Irish who had no experience of siege warfare.
The next piece, "William Marshal's charter to Kilkenny, 1207: background, dating and witnesses," is tinged with sadness for more than one reason. It was begun by John Bradley who, lamentably, died before he could complete it. Ben Murtagh undertook the task of finishing the article. The authors set the stage for the foundation of Kilkenny by Marshal. Even before the arrival of the Anglo-Normans the old Gaelic Ireland was being transformed by the Norse, who founded the first towns in Ireland and opened it to commerce with the outside world. The king who would rule Ireland no longer need seize Tara, but Dublin. The Norse settlement at the mouth of the Liffey was where the money was and still is.
In the patchwork of kingdoms that the Anglo-Normans found when they arrived in 1169, those of Leinster and Osraige were in a state of constant, low-level warfare. The authors recount in detail this infighting and treachery in the early twelfth century. This was part of the conflict, of course, that ultimately lead to Diarmait MacMurchada's enlistment of Strongbow to retrieve his kingdom of Leinster and the consequent subjection of Ireland to Anglo-Norman rule.
After William Marshal inherited Strongbow's holdings in Leinster he founded the new High Town of Kilkenny on the river Nore as the centrepiece of his desmesne. In its charter he granted the denizens a number of privileges and set up guilds, all to encourage economic activity and make the colony pay for itself. Among the privileges was the right of the townsmen to sell their burgages to whomever they wished except religious orders. Also in the charter William calls on his lords to defend his interests and his lady, Isabel, who was to be left behind to run his affairs while he was summoned back to England by King John. There follows a list of those witnessing the charter with brief biographies of each and their connections. In the event these men did rally to the defense of Isabel when, in the cut and thrust of early thirteenth-century Ireland, the wolves attacked Marshal's holdings. This article is capped by a translation of the charter rendered by Bradley.
The next article, by the late Billy Colfer, returns to archaeological evidence to explore William Marshal's settlement strategy in Co. Wexford. Marshal continued the project of his father-in-law, Strongbow, in constructing a long series of earthworks running from northeast to southwest and demarcating his land in Leinster from the Gaelic areas outside. These were bolstered with stone castles, mottes and ring forts. Colfer also looks at the Tower of Hook at the entrance to Waterford harbor as a fortress protecting the shipping avenue. William also founded the port at New Ross, one of the best harbors for shipping in the kingdom, as a rival to the king's port at Waterford.
Also focusing on the foundation of New Ross is Cóilín Ó Drisceoil who looks at its foundational charter in a later redaction made by William's grandson, Roger Bigod, along with archaeological evidence for the founding of the town, the waterfront, religious houses, mills, bridge and ferry. In the thirteenth century New Ross was the greatest wool-exporting port in Ireland and there were Florentine merchants there as early as 1217. Ó Drisceoil follows with a plea for more archaeology and for it to take precedence over development as he fears that valuable evidence is being lost in the scramble.
This collection finishes with a delightful offering from Gillian Kenny about Isabel de Clare, William's bride. Though she was the daughter of Strongbow and Aoife MacMurchada, Isabel was raised at the court of Prince John and she grew up speaking French. Isabel was a formidable woman who, though she was a generation younger than William, was able to protect her husband's holdings from predators during his absence in England. She bore William ten children but none of the males lived to inherit his lordship and so, upon his death, his land had to be divided among his daughters and came under the control of their husbands.
This collection is illuminating and of rigorous academic standard. One feels that the authors have utilized virtually all available evidence and wrung the maximum conclusions from it.

How I scraped my competition's facebook group
- September 13, 2018
- 0
Sup guys, in this post I'm going to show you how I scraped members from my competition's Facebook group to engage and connect on Linkedin.
Before we get started, here's the stack you'll need:
Let's get started.
- Click on the link above to download the FB Group Scraper Extension and unzip.
- Open Chrome extensions and toggle on Developer Mode.
3. Select Load Unpacked
4. This will open Finder if you're on a Mac or […] on Windows. Locate the unzipped fb group scraper extension and upload it. This is what you should see:
5. Turn the extension on, if its off. You should extension in the toolbar.
6. Head on over to your competition's facebook group.
7. Once you're in the group, simply click on the extension. It will take a few minutes to scrape the members and will automatically download it to your computer as a csv.
8. The next step is to create a trial account on Phantombuster and utilize their LinkedIn Profile URL Finder to generate the LI urls for the members you just scraped.
9. Once you've generated the LI urls for the group members, go to your campaign dashboard in Orca and click on Create Campaign in the navbar.
There are four types of campaigns in Orca:
- Search on Linkedin
- Upload a CSV of Linkedin URLs
- Send Linkedin URLs by Zapier
- Send Linkedin URLs from Growlabs
For this hack, you can either upload a CSV or pass leads through Zapier.
10. Setup your sequence. I typically keep my sequences to 3–4 touches. Remember this is Linkedin… don't be stupid and use long-ass copy in your outreach. Keep your messages short, sweet, and social. After all, Linkedin is a social networking platform. Plus, nobody likes getting spammy messages, including the sales reps sending out spammy ass emails and messages.
BLUF: don't be that idiot that sends a paragraph long pitch in a connect or follow-up.
11. Click Next when you're done and give your campaign a name. To keep things organized, I recommend naming your campaign the same as the fb group followed by winning at the end. Like so:
Dux-soup User Group — winning
Why winning? To give your campaign some positive vibes. 🙂
12. Publish, then sit back, pop open a can of Pringles (Sea Salt Vinegar preferred), and groove out to this playlist: https://spoti.fi/2BOu124
Once your campaign is published, the leads will be in pending status while Orca verifies the URLs are valid. Note:make sure that your Linkedin account is connected with Orca, otherwise… all the leads will be invalid because Orca won't be able to login to your account and verify.
Verification will start within 15–30 minutes, unless that is you've already ran Orca all day and it needs to rest. Yes, robots need sleep too.
Orca runs around 200 engagements per day for premium users and half that for basic users. I don't know the exact number because we randomize it to keep your account safe from being flagged.
Don't get flagged. Set up a automation schedule under Automation Settings in Preferences
Okay, cool. So what was the result of my scrape? Well, I managed to generate around 300+ Linkedin URLs, 230 are still pending verification. Out of the 91 profiles that I've engaged with, I connected with and started conversations with 52.8% …. when was the last time you saw email opens or response that high?
Better get cracking on your Linkedin game before everyone and their mothers start running social selling campaigns on Orca. There's a shelf life to every growth tactic. Don't be a damn laggard.

- A woman claims to have regained her sight at Bishop Agyinasare's Festival of Wonders event
- The woman was overcome with emotion after allegedly being blind for two years
- Bishop Agyinasare preached that sin brings curses into peoples lives at the event
A woman who is said to have lost her sight allegedly regained it during Bishop Charles Agyinasare's Festival of Wonders event that took place in Tamale, the capital of the Northern Region.
According to a report published by Starrfmonline.com, the women is said to have been overcome with emotion thanks to her newfound sight, and made no effort to conceal it.
The woman allegedly lost her eyesight two years ago, and expressed that part of her joy stems from the fact that she can now walk and go about her day without the need for assistance.

Addressing believers at the event, Bishop Charles Agyinasare advised Christians to endeavor to stay away from sin in order to live a life free of curses.
The popular man of God went on to name some of the sins, he said, people commit that bring curses into their lives such as idolatry, selling the same piece of land to multiple buyers, dishonoring one's parents, and homosexuality among others.
Bishop Charles Agyinasare, Founder of Perez Chapel International went on to say Christians should repent in order to break the curses laid on them.
The Festival of Wonders event comes just weeks after the Festival of Miracles event which was organized by Perez Chapel International at the Independence Square from January 30th, to February 2nd, 2018.

Throughout The Car Industry
Toyota Prius Family To Get a Little Bigger By 2013
Despite being the best-selling hybrid around, the Toyota Prius isn't quite for everyone. Some may need or want more interior space to fit their families and all their haulage, and some may feel the Prius isn't small and efficient enough. Both those segments will be getting the Prius they yearn for in just a few short years.
According to a Wall Street Journal report based on discussions with two dealers that were briefed at a company dealer conference last week, Toyota will be introducing both a smaller and a larger Prius to market by the end of 2012. The larger model will give drivers 50 percent more interior space while the smaller model will be comparable in size to the Yaris.
Toyota is already the world leader in hybrid sales, and the two new Prius models will be among six new hybrids that Toyota plans to introduce over the next two years. Since its introduction in 1997, the Prius has sold to the tune of two million, and Toyota plans to drive hybrid sales to the point of a million per year with its expanding family. It hopes to offer a hybrid version of every one of its vehicles by the 2020s.
Another model that's expected by the end of 2012 is the Prius Plug-In. It features the same engine/motor combination as the standard Prius: 98-hp 1.8-liter engine with an 80-hp electric motor, but uses a lithium-ion battery instead of a nickel-metal-hydride battery. The plug-in can travel for up to 13 miles under electric-only driving and can recharge in three hours.
In a recent study by the Union of Concerned Scientists, Toyota was declared the second-greenest automaker (tied with Hyundai), trailing very closely behind Honda. The company was expected to surpass Honda for the first time this year, but fell just short. In looking at how Toyota could beat Honda in the future, Jim Kliesch, the report's author said: "Toyota also will need to make fleetwide improvements to stay in contention. Without its successful Prius hybrid, the company would have placed fourth this year instead of second."
A bigger Prius family seems like just the ticket for Toyota to take top billing on the report.

According to the Wiki, "Github is a distributed revision control and source code management (SCM) system with an emphasis on speed."
To understand better, a comparison of Github with the Version Control Systems is a great option since most of us have used some or the other VCS. Here goes the comparison:
To understand better, a comparison of Github with the Version Control Systems is a great option since most of us have used some or the other VCS. Here goes the comparison:
- Git thinks of its data more like a set of snapshots of a mini filesystem and stores every version as a reference to the snapshot of the filesystem at that point, unlike VCSs which think of the information they keep as a set of files.
- Git stores the entire history of the project on your local disk, due to which most operations in Git only need local files and resources to operate unlike a VCS where most operations have that network latency overhead.
- Git provides data integrity through its check-summing mechanism.
- All the actions Git allows are undoable. As in any VCS, you can lose or mess up changes you haven't committed yet; but after you commit a snapshot into Git, it is very difficult to lose.
The Three stages of Github
Git has three main states that your files can reside in:
- Committed: means that the data is safely stored in your local database.
- Modified: means that you have changed the file but have not committed it to your database yet.
- Staged: means that you have marked a modified file in its current version to go into your next commit snapshot.
Setup and Start Using Github
After taking a walk through the Github basics, getting to the very aim of this post i.e Setup and Start Using Github
- Firstly install git on your machine using synaptic or the command
sudo apt-get install git
- Once the account is setup, you need to set the ssh keys required for authenticating your account/local repo to github. Before this if any operation is attempted like :
are tried, you'll get errors like :
"Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly "
"Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly "
So proceed for setting up the ssh keys.
- Steps for setting up SSH Keys
1. Check for SSH keys:
$ cd ~/.ssh
Checks to see if there is a directory named ".ssh" in your user directory. If yes, proceed with the step 2, else jump to step 3.
$ cd ~/.ssh
Checks to see if there is a directory named ".ssh" in your user directory. If yes, proceed with the step 2, else jump to step 3.
2. Backup and remove existing SSH keys :
i. $ ls (Lists all the subdirectories in the .ssh folder)
config id_rsa id_rsa.pub known_hosts
authorized_keys id_dsa id_dsa.pub known_hosts
ii. $ mkdir key_backup (makes a subdirectory called "key_backup" in the current directory_
iii. $ cp id_rsa* key_backup (Copies the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub files into key_backup)
iv. $ rm id_rsa*
3. Generate a new SSH key.
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "email@example.com"
(this email id is the one you must have used when creating the github account)
Output would be like :
Generating public/private dsa key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa): <press enter>
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): ******
Enter same passphrase again: ******
Your identification has been saved in /home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa.
Your public key has been saved in /home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa.pub.The key fingerprint is:
- Add your SSH key to GitHub.
Open the SSH Keys option in your Github account and click on the "Add SSH Key" button. Copy the content of the /home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa.pub file and paste here.
Then hit the Add button.
- Test everything out.
Try the command below :
$ ssh -T firstname.lastname@example.com
$ ssh -T email@example.com
If an error like :
"Agent admitted failure to sign using the key.
Permission denied (publickey)."
occurs then try :
$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_dsa
Output would be :
Enter passphrase for /home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa:******
Identity added: /home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa (/home/abc/.ssh/id_dsa)
Now try the same command :
$ ssh -T email@example.com Jayati! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.
Commit your code to a remote repository
To add code to some remote repo on github:
- Clone the repository to which you need to add a module/subfolder.
This creates a folder sample_repository in the current working directory.
- Copy the folder to be added to this cloned folder and place it the way you wish to add it to the repository. Cd to the cloned copy of the repository and run the following command to add the folder to the local repository
or"git add sample_sub_folder/pom.xml"
if only one of the components(for eg. pom.xml) of the folder is to be added.
"git commit -m "message"
"git commit -m "message"
"git commit -a" (this opens a shell to add the commit message)
- Run the pull command:
"git pull"
- Run the push command:
- To revert a commit:
That's it. Enjoy Githubing ...

Right before you will have a look at the manual, you may read the gta 5 online cheats.
There's so much to do, right? Los Santos is a huge city, but then there's the numerous miles of countryside outside of it, and of course an whole sea floor littered with collectibles. Where do you begin? In the start, sure, but where to next once that's done? There's no wrong answer in GTA V. Research or not as you'd like. Read on for some help getting a grasp on some of the game's basic systems, and hopefully avoid some of those trial-and-error that accompanies learning them.
Starting fresh
You are going to have to play through it all until you get to a place where you're ready to explore Los Santos and the neighboring region. Bear in mind your ability to change between multiple protagonists is restricted at first. It's a fantastic hour or two before you've got two characters to play with, and many hours longer beyond that prior to the third joins the celebration. Overall, you're likely looking at 3-5 hours of mainlining the story if you want to hold off exploring until all three personalities are in the mix.
The whole map is available and accessible to research from the very first moment you set foot in Los Santos. Your only barrier is the in-game map, which can be shrouded at the beginning at a"fog of war" that slowly reveals itself as you research more and more of what is out there. For those that want to fill in some of the map prior to the story's various assignments send you around, it is useful to keep handy the newspaper map of the region that ships with the game. It doesn't show you everything, but it highlights a range of the major landmarks that are scattered across the world.
Getting around
It wouldn't be a GTA game in case you weren't stealing tons and tons of cars all of the time. It's right there at the name, after all. You'll come across the exact same diverse mix of vehicles — with wheels, with wings, and with rudders — roaming the streets that you did in previous games. Maintaining cars which you've stolen remains an option, but it works a little differently in GTA V.
Every safehouse includes a distance where you are able to store a vehicle or two, but each of those three personalities also has his very own garage. Franklin, Michael, along with Trevor-specific map icons are marked green, blue, and orange, respectively, and this color coding helps to recognize each of the garages. Drive or walk around a and press directly on the D-pad once the prompt appears in order to enter it. Inside, there's enough space to get a handful of vehicles, at least 5 or even six. It works as the garages of prior games; take a car out of the garage, and it is gone until you store it there again. Abandon a stolen car (instead of simply wrecking it), and you may have the ability to detect it in the game's ton.
You'll want to mod these automobiles early, since any updates adhere even in the event that you lose or destroy the vehicle and have to grab a replacement at the safehouse. Focus on the armor , then the motor and anything else that enhances acceleration (such as turbo tuning). Also make sure you grab bulletproof tires. You'll come to recognize them quickly as you satisfy each character.
Boats and planes work just a bit differently, in that you'll have to buy dock space at the local marina and a hangar to store those. Otherwise it is the same. Leave the vehicle you'd like to store in the proper storage location, and it'll be waiting for you once you return.
For up-and-coming automobile thieves, you'll find the finest rides in and about Vinewood. Keep a look out for sport cars. You'll want to have Franklin about to boost automobiles; he will get in and get one started more quickly than Michael or even Trevor thanks to his background as a repo man, and he doesn't have to break a window in order to achieve that.
Getting away
Sooner or later, the cops will come after you. That is fine. This can be GTA, after all. It helps to understand how you can get away though. Break their line of sight along with the flashing stops and the authorities begin to consciously hunt for you, with your last known location as a starting point. You'll see each cop or police automobile emphasized on the minimap having a vision cone extending out from it when they're in search style.
The trick out of here is simple, in theory at least: stay out of those vision cones. That isn't always feasible given the designs of the roads and freeways around Los Santos, but it is what you have to do. There's no on-screen indicator that communicates how long you've left until the police call off their search. Your wanted level only flashes to let you know they're searching, and disappears entirely when they call it quits.
There's no real trick to getting away, you only have to be sensible. From the city proper, make use of alleyways and the empty spaces under raised roadways. The aqueduct may seem to be a fantastic spot to conceal, but be mindful that the fuzz will appear in there too. You may also look to some body of water that is deep enough for you to dive under the surface . You can't hold your breath indefinitely, but swimming underwater is fantastic cover for getting away.
Away from the town, you'll mostly just wish to prevent all roads. Generally speaking there's a component of improvisation to shaking the heat. You have got to see your minimap, see where cops are spawning, and traveling in directions that steer you away out of their vision cones. Cops tends to spawn on roads or in parking lots, therefore heading out to the open country is almost always a reliable bet for shaking any severe heat. You may also try taking to the heavens, but be mindful that police choppers begin to spawn — at all altitudes — once you're at three stars or greater.
Right to bear arms
It's not long until you develop a healthy arsenal of firepower in GTA V. Your firearms stay with you once you have them in your stock, barring a handful of plot-specific moments that restrict what you've got access to. Ammu-Nation is still the weapons supplier of choice in the GTA world, and they're everywhere in Los Santos. Guns, gun mods, and ammo all cost money, with just one notable exception: Trevor is this a huge deal up north of his Sandy Shores house the local Ammu-Nation there gives him all his firearms for free. Make sure that you stock up once you've obtained control of Trevor.
Also worth noting: you're not confronted with a one-or-the-other situation when you pick up numerous weapons of the identical kind (ie pistols, SMGs, assault rifles, etc.). Holding LB on a Xbox 360 controller brings up the radial weapon . A screen in the center of the wheel shows you that weapon you currently have selected along with a list of all mods now fitted to that weapon.
Making money
You get most of your money in GTA 5 Online Game by playing through each of these story-connected heists, but you have plenty of other choices if you want to create some quick cash. Convenience shops and liquor shops that you're ready to walk into can be redeemed; it is as simple as pointing a weapon at the cashier until he or she coughs up any money. Also watch out on the streets for armored automobiles; blow open the rear doors (or simply blow it up) and you'll receive cash from that too.
Playing the stock market is always an option. The prior ties directly to the events of the game, so you'll want to pay attention to what is going on — and observe LCD closely — when your actions in the story relate to a company or another. This is particularly true for the assassination assignments that unlock about halfway through the story. Take note of everything you're told in the pre- and post-mission briefings for these assassinations, since your murdering are intended to affect stock prices in 1 manner or another.
Then there's BAWSAQ, which can be monitored on Rockstar Social Club affected by the behaviour of the overall GTA 5 Online Game community. If a lot of people are stealing one type of automobile or robbing one store particularly, the inventory on BAWSAQ related to it is going to change.
There are still other ways to earn money beyond that. If your minimap suddenly strobes white, watch for blue and/or red dots ; this can be an indication that one of those dynamic"citizen needing" moments is occurring. Occasionally it is a pickpocket, occasionally it is a gang shootout, and occasionally it's only a random drunk couple looking for a ride. You may earn some extra scratch by helping these people out… or not. Why yield the $2,000 you've only recovered, to the lady over there when she is going to take it all back and provide you a $200 reward? Why drive lone hitchhiker to his wedding when you could just as easily promote off him to a cannibalistic mountain cult that pays handsomely for new meat (true story)?
Strangers and Freaks
There's more of a very clear divide between critical route missions and optional assignments in GTA 5 Online Game than there ever was before in the series. The Strangers and Freaks missions generally follow their own plot thread; once you've met a particular character for the very first time, all subsequent assignment markers in their storyline are identified on your minimap as an icon consisting of a question mark and the initial letter of the mission-giver's name.
When the character change interface looks, you'll usually observe a number over each character portrait. This number denotes the amount of assignments the character has not yet begun; if there's no quantity, there aren't any new assignments to be collected.
Skills and unique abilities
Each playable character has his own set of ability bars concerning shooting capability, driving, flying, endurance, and so on. These skills all improve with repetition (ie the longer you run, the greater your stamina rating gets), but you can find other strategies to improve them too. Flight School provides a simple route to maxing out your flying skill — you'll get there before you complete each the challenges — and doing so cuts down on the quantity of turbulence that character experiences in flight. Visiting an Ammu-Nation firing range, on the other hand, offers an opportunity to boost your shooting. There's generally a nominal fee for a lot of the stuff, but it is small ($15 for a round at the shooting range, for instance ).
Special abilities are also unique to each character, although they're all activated (and deactivated) in the exact same manner: push down on the left and right thumbsticks at the exact same time. Franklin's unique enables him to slow time down while he's driving. Vehicles also accelerate more quickly and shed less momentum after collisions while the particular is busy. It's extremely helpful for some of the narrative's tighter chase assignments and getaways, but it's helpful whenever you want to do a little precision driving.
Michael has the exact same basic capability as Franklin, except for him time slows down when he's on foot. When his unique is busy, Michael is essentially only channeling Max Payne's bullet-time attribute. He is more deadly because he's moving faster than anybody else on earth. Trevor also becomes more deadly when his unique is busy, but not because of bullet-time. Rather, Trevor goes to a rage mode that makes his weapons do more damage while reducing the harm he takes.
Each exceptional ability serves a purpose in different situations. Franklin is clearly the wheel guy. Michael is best employed as a sniper, since his bullet-time capability makes scoring headshots at extreme ranges no difficulty at all. Trevor is best saved for all-out assaults, those moments once you really just want some nutjob with a shotgun to run in and clear out a space.
Materials you should try
Now that you've got the basics down, here are a couple of specific things that you may want to try out, or keep in mind. Got any of your own? Or some other tips that weren't mentioned here? Please, by all means, talk about it in the comments below!
Mind your airspace: here is a professional tip that should help everyone. Most of us have a blimp via unlock code, compliments of a launch window GTA 5 Online Game buy. Most of us are likely going to want to jump in that blimp right away and fly all around. That is fine. It's a slow-moving beast, but it is a neat way to tour around the map. Keep 1 thing in mind though: restricted airspace is not your friend. Be cautious not to fly the blimp over the airport or the prison or the army base. It's a crap getaway vehicle, being that it is a giant freaking balloon drifting in the sky.
The most dependable approach to sneak a jet that we've discovered: fill Trevor's unique meter, get a helicopter, and fly high over Fort Zancudo (if you're large enough, you won't activate the alerts ). Once that is done, skydive down to the foundation. You're aiming for the large open hangar that is adjacent to the runway. There's obviously a jet inside. Activate Trevor's unique after you hit the ground and make a beeline for the jet. You have got enough acceleration that you should be able to remove the moment you clear the hangar.
Channel your inner Jacques Cousteau: There's a substantial chunk of real estate in GTA 5 Online Game at the base of the ocean. Besides an assortment of optional assignment collectibles, you may frequently find weapons and armor missing one of the seaweed too. Before you can research, however, you will want scuba gear. Roughly midway through the game you'll have the ability to obtain a company up north known as Sonar Collections. This provides you access to your submarine, and you're mechanically wearing a ski tank whenever you bail out of it. You'll also unlock a Strangers and Freaks assignment that gives you access to a Zodiak vessel; like the sub, you're scuba-equipped if you bond out of this one.
Build your empire: There's another route to earning cash that we did not get into above: going legit. A number of companies available for purchase are sprinkled across Los Santos. You'll likely have to make some money from one or more heists until you may begin buying up serious property, but doing so provides the character that owns the house — yes, possession is character-specific — a weekly influx of cash. You'll also sometimes acquire optional assignments related to your owned companies that improve your income. Act quickly once you have the call or you'll miss your opportunity. You can't mess up your company by missing these, but your weekly earnings are going to take a hit.
Find all of the things: The story in GTA 5 Online Game visits many places in Los Santos, but a lot of others are skipped over. You won't visit the prison or the army base. You won't find any concerts at the town's Hollywood Bowl knock-off, and you also won't stink any bodies under the Vinewood sign. Make sure that you get out there and really research. There's a lot of small tidbits hidden away. Can you locate the abandoned hippie commune? The mountain fort of the Altruist Cult?
Naturally there are cheats. GTA games constantly have them. You're under no obligation to utilize them, and we won't judge you in the event that you do. These cheats will provide you different ways to enjoy the game, but they won't be helpful for unlocking anything. Take a look at gta 5 online cheats for limitless money.

Any entrepreneur can tell you about their moment.
The moment they looked in the mirror, and said to the exhausted face staring back at them, can I actually make it? Will I actually achieve the success I'm striving for or am I killing myself for nothing?
It is at this critical moment that we define ourselves as entrepreneurs.
It is at this critical moment that we tap into our inner-most belief—our unrelenting, unyielding belief in ourselves—to push through the pain, push past the doubt, and keep working towards our goal.
As entrepreneurs, our deep, unspoken belief in ourselves is what guides us on a day to day basis. It's what allows us to conduct business, and achieve the goals we set for ourselves.
No one knows this fact better than today's guest on Making Bank, Liz Benny.
Early in her entrepreneurial career, Liz didn't have a whole lot of self-belief. She had been homeless. Been defeated. And been discouraged about the future.
It wasn't until Liz started tapping into her belief in herself—wasn't until she started reminding herself that she could do anything—that she started making the strides that would lead her to where she is today.
And where is she?
Sitting at the head two businesses (Jinga Social and Social Monkey Business), generating seven-figures in revenue, and creating high-yielding online courses and digital resources that help other aspiring entrepreneurs achieve greatness in their own lives.
And while she still faces her fair share of entrepreneurial struggles on a daily basis, Liz continues to press forward, reminding herself with a little KAPOW-energy that she really does have the power to do anything she wants.
So tune-in to today's episode to hear Liz Benny and host Josh Felber discuss the power of the positive mindset, and an array of other topics, including...
✓ How to leverage passion to make life-altering change
✓ Why fostering the RIGHT mindset is indispensable for your business
✓ What you can do to effectively share the load and delegate tasks
✓ Why accountability partners are essential for your growth as an entrepreneur
✓ The difference between KNOWING and ACCEPTING yourself
✓ How the entrepreneurial journey is defined by both the highs AND the lows
And much, much more...

The Business District Revitalization and Streetscape Project for the Borough of Avalon in New Jersey was a phased infrastructure reconstruction and improvement project intended to correct drainage and utility problems, promote safe bicycle and pedestrian use along the public transportation corridor on Dune Drive, and enhance the charm of the Business District.
Mott MacDonald provided preliminary and final design for the project as well as funding and permitting assistance and construction management, observation, and administration.
With relation to the adjacent street roadway reconstruction, we provided initial field survey, stormwater and sanitary sewer investigations of existing size, location and condition of each utility and preparation of contract drawings utilizing AutoCAD software.
The design for each roadway including the calculation of new vertical alignment as well as design of stormwater conveyance system upgrades. Other duties consisted of material takeoffs, technical specification design and contract advertisement, and recommendation for contract award and contract administration and inspection services.
We designed the roadway reconstruction contract in accordance with NJDOT Roadway and Bridges Specifications and AASHTO requirements.
Stormwater system improvements included an innovative duplex pump station design that allowed for the gravity discharge of runoff during small to moderate rain events while using pumps to discharge runoff from larger rain events and minor tidal flooding.
Mott MacDonald used low-flow drip irrigation systems in all landscaped areas to reduce water use and improve environmental sustainability. We designed the roadway reconstruction contract in accordance with NJDOT Roadway and Bridges Specifications and AASHTO requirements.
Negative impacts and disruptions to the general public and business community were successfully minimized by engaging and communicating with all stakeholders throughout the planning, design, and construction process.
We assisted the Borough in obtaining TEA-21 and New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) Centers-of-Place and Local Aid funding for the construction of portions of the project.
Following the completion of the various phases of the project, the Borough of Avalon experienced a dramatic increase in the economic vitality of the business district. The upturn continued despite a national and regional economic downturn.

Shetland Sheep are classed as one of the primitive breed of sheep and despite their genetic make-up having been "improved" on over many hundreds of years, whilst most modern day Shetland Sheep have to be sheared, there are still some genetic strains out there that still have the ability to naturally shed their fleece. The fleece from these particular strain of Shetland can be naturally harvested from the sheep by a traditional method called "rooing". Shepherds who know that they have some of these sheep in their flocks will often gently tug on their sheeps fleece around the normal sheep shearing time to see if the fleece is ready to come away naturally at "the rise", which is the name for the point on the locks where one seasons growth ends and the new seasons growth begins and this is a weak spot and will break off during preparation of a sheared fleece.
Once again, this Shetland fleece came from the same farmer in Morval, Cornwall, that all of my Shetland fleece have come from so far. This is a Grey/White Rooed Shetland Lamb fleece and is absolutely beautiful.
I started out with 678g of fleece and after removing really, really short locks and washing it it weighs 428g, a massive 250g loss before I even get my combs out!
I noticed that some of it felt a little coarser than the main bulk and so I separated those locks out and prepared and spun them separately. I will refer to parts of this fleece as Grade A (the best) and Grade B (the coarser stuff).
After I combed it, I was left with 52g of Grade B top and 238g of Grade A top, in a range of shades.
From the Grade B, I made a Fingering Weight 2ply yarn, 52g/124m and I called it "Snowy Owl".
From the Grade A, I made a Double-Knit Weight yarn, 2 skeins: 113g/385m and 119g/357m and again I called the colour "Snowy Owl".

Dogs playing in the mud can be so amusing.
Even if you do have to wash them afterward, you can?t help but admire their ability to turn a quagmire into good, dirty fun.

Actress Tori Spelling Reportedly Engaged
HOW can you get engaged when you're not even divorced yet?
HOW? How?!?! How?
When poor people act like this, we call them white trash.
Well, Donna Martin, if the cut-offs and halter tops fit, wear 'em.

From what I've heard re: Tori's dad...he's pretty addled mentally at this point. I mean, the dude's like 80 years old I think.
I've heard he's softheaded now. Maybe he doesn't even know what Tori and her hole are up to.
I definitely think if my kid was married then split a year later then engaged again within four months, we'd not be laying out any sort of cash, and we'd be having a big talk. A BIG talk.

Changing Demographics of Performance Management
Off late we have been a witness to a lot of transformations and how technology has been at the epicentre of those disruptive transformations and HR has not been oblivious to it.
The keywords for survival and competitive advantages today are decentralized decision making and the need for speed, both of which necessitates and triggers the need to improve coaching and guidance for improving employee engagement levels. This requirement is justified when viewed from the context that the average voluntary employee turnover is happening in the chunks of the medium performers & if this is coupled with the speed in decision making it makes it paramount and difficult to ignore in a global economy.
While nothing may have changed from an organizations expectations w.r.t their employees owning-up responsibilities for their productivity and the organizations performance, however, when factoring the employee turnover component into the organizations people sub-system changes the overall equation of an organizations environment.
While a lot may have changed in the way organizations operate, there has also been an impact on the average employee tenure from 10 to 5 years and the graph is further in the downtrend making talent retention the most volatile subject for discussion among the HR team. While few of the industry segments may not perceive this as a problem yet because jobs keep multiplying but they would soon be exposed to the financial and non-financial cost associated with the employee turnover. Well, why will they not be, no segment can remain immune: when there is a direct connection to an organizations' investment in its employees, recruitment, on boarding, training etc., and the non-financial factors like knowledge, competitiveness etc. This is a serious issue and organizations have to address the challenges of employee turnover to lessen its impact on cost and productivity.
So what may be the probable solutions to address the employee turnover issue?
Inspire and build a strong work culture
People seek meaning in whatever they do, they would like to know the "Why" for every action. The answer to "Why" provides a feeling that the effort is worthwhile and improves employee response enhancing the possibility of successful outcome which drives workplace satisfaction and inspires employee loyalty and encourage them to stay longer.
Create a workplace that drives values
People feel connected when they feel they are valued, collaborative working relationships exist, creativity & innovation is encouraged, efforts appreciated, service beyond expectations rewarded and opportunities for learning & personal growth exists.
Job Security
Over the years there has been a significant difference in the perception of Job Security. Gone are the days when employees viewed their job as their career and retired with a "group photo" to feel nostalgic and a thank you for your trust in us and years of contribution note engraved on a "memento". This change may be strongly connected to the flat organization structures prevalent today, which inhibits creation of long-term employee career strategies. This also indirectly encourages poaching higher salaries and vertical growth which employees leverage to fulfil their eagerness to learn as-much-as possible, even if it's going to be from more than one organization.
While all the 3 points mentioned above are strongly connected (the factors indirectly referenced) sounds meaningful and convincing to influence employee tenure. Translating them into practice may be time consuming with embedded constraints. However, the issue of "how to get the new joiners to speed" requires to be addressed on war footing at an era of rampant recruitments and also quickly integrate these new joiners with the business process to optimize their availability and improving productivity. Enterprise size organizations like Adobe, Deloitte, GE, TCS, Wipro, Infosys, etc., were quick to realise that annual performance reviews may not be useful to address this concern and the need of the hour is "Continuous Feedback".
Continuous Feedback – Brief informal ongoing & continuous interactions, is the best way to quickly inspire and win the commitment of an employee. It provides the best way to demonstrate work place collaboration, encouragement and improve competitiveness. It helps to immediately appreciate efforts and recognize exceptional performance instantly. They help best to coach and mentor employees which improves their participation, approach to work, make informed decisions and deliver successful outcomes. All the aforementioned leads to improved workplace satisfaction and hopefully may also significantly improve the average employee tenure, the rest is gravy.

Bethesda Softworks Opens Office around australia The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim The Elder Scrolls: Online Wolfenstein: The Brand New Order The Evil Within
Bethesda Softworks Opens Office in Australia | The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim | The Elder Scrolls: Online | Wolfenstein: The New Order | The Evil Within
Bethesda Softworks, legendary for the Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, has opened up a workplace in Sydney Australia.
Should you thought you recognized Bethesda Softworks, you most likely did due to the Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. It's certainly one of their top titles, and so many people are acquainted with it. As goes Bethesda Softworks, they have finally opened up a workplace in Sydney Australia.
Of places, why Australia?
Australia includes a growing market and it is an excellent place for Bethesda Softworks to plant a workplace. ZeniMax Australia Pty Limited will oversee sales, marketing, and distribution for Bethesda titles in New zealand and australia.
During an announcement earlier today, Simon Alty was named the md from the Sydney office, getting much experience of marketing and advertising for games. ZeniMax Europe's md Sean Brennan designed a statement:
"Simon's expertise and experience within the games industry – particularly getting labored on marketing and advertising of Bethesda's titles the final 4 years – is going to be of effective value once we open a publishing office in Sydney. Searching ahead, 2014 promises to become a big year for Bethesda once we to produce trio of AAA titles: The Elder Scrolls Online, Wolfenstein: The Brand New Order and also the Evil Within."
As 2014 is drawing closer, don't be surprised excellent achievements from Bethesda Softworks, and New zealand and australia can get to consider a bigger role because the marketplace is opening wider on their behalf.

I am a cry baby..
I admit it and I ain't denying it..
I cry over the smallest and shallowest things..
I cry in movies, I cry for tv shows, even commercials, I cry even at times for no apparent reason..
Some days a good cry is all you need..
To wash away the dirt from your eyes
To cleanse your heart and soul from all negative energy
or just to let out all pent up emotions..
Crying is good therapy if you are the type who likes to keep things bottled up inside..
One can cry with any emotion. Mostly sad but there are tears for joy as well.
I can cry at the slightest of instance, most of the time it gets triggered when the situation I am witnessing is related to family mostly about parents or sons.. even pets!
I think I got this from my mama, she used to cry for the smallest things as well. I remember I would wonder why she was crying back when I was small and we'd laugh at her especially my papa who is the bigger critique when it comes to cry babies. Oh how I miss them..
As per Wikipedia:
Crying is the shedding of tears in response to an emotional state. The act of crying has been defined as "a complex secretomotor phenomenon characterized by the shedding of tears from the lacrimal apparatus, without any irritation of the ocular structures".[1] A related medical term islacrimation, which also refers to non-emotional shedding of tears. Crying is also known as weeping, wailing, whimpering, and bawling.[2]
For crying to be described as sobbing, it usually has to be accompanied by a set of other symptoms, such as slow but erratic inhalation, occasional instances of breath holding and muscular tremor.
I believe everyone deserves to cry from time to time.
It's not nice to laugh at someone at this state but I guess sympathy and a willing ear is more than enough to soothe those water ducts.
(awwww! i don't own the rights for this picture by the way..)
Till my next blot of ink! 🙂
