Top 10 Countries In The World With A Shortage Of Men. Many of these countries may feature picturesque views and pretty girls, but gender imbalance makes these beauties anxious to find a husband. The sax ratio, or gender ratio, is a demographic term referring to the ratio of males to females in a population. It is an expression of the number of males for every 100 females. The ideal ratio is somewhere from 105 to 107:100, which means 105 to 107 men for every 100 women. This ideal ratio was first documented in 1710 and several other studies have confirmed those figures.
Where men are more than females, problems such as homicide and violence may arise. Where women are more than men, a disparity in income earned between the two saxes is likely to affect the economy of a nation. A large number of unmarried women worsen the gender imbalance due to decreased births. The number of men is slightly more than the number of women in the world. However, they are countries where women outnumber men.
If you are a single man, you may want to try your luck by visiting these countries; you just might come back with a beautiful wife. Let's have a look at the top 10 countries with a shortage of men.
10. Kazakhstan
Ratio of men to women: 0.92:1
9. Moldova
Ratio of men to women: 0.91:1
8. Monaco
Ratio of men to women: 0.91:1
7. Hungary
Ratio of men to women: 0.91:1
6. Russia
In Russia, there are more newborn boys than girls each year, and men continue to outnumber women until age 31. But from age 32 onward, there are more women than men, with the gap widening every year.
Russian's overall population is in decline with males even more so, including a drop in life expectancy for men. Women have a higher life expectancy of 76 years that of a man's 65 years.
Much of the gender discrepancy can be explained by history. The demographics of the former Soviet republics have been greatly influenced by their 20th-century history. According to the very first census conducted in Russia, there were 98.9 men for every 100 women in 1897. It almost matches today's gender ratio in the United States. (98.3 men for 100 women).
Today, ratio of men to women: 0.88:1
5. Lithuania
Ratio of men to women: 0.88:1
4. Belarus
Ratio of men to women: 0.88:1
3. Ukraine
Since it was a Soviet Union nation, Ukraine's gender disparity is traced back to World War two. Life expectancy for either gender is 64 years. However, men live to an average of 62 years while the female are 74 years. Many men in Ukraine are affected by mental, and health problems and this, coupled with high levels of emigration reduce the country's male population.
Ratio of men to women: 0.86:1
2. Estonia
Ratio of men to women: 0.86:1
Latvia is a former Soviet Union country and experienced a great decline in male population during World War two. By 2015, there were 84.8 males for every 100 females. The proportion of the female was 54.10% of the total population.
Men in Latvia have a high mortality rate due to issues such as alcoholism, smoking, and careless car driving. Around 80% of suicides in Latvia are committed by men, often because of unemployment and unrealized financial goals. There are 3,000 more women aged 30-39 than men. Ratio of men to women: 0.85:1. Women live 11 years longer on average, the highest disparity in the EU
Far Reaching Implications of Gender Gaps.
In most countries across the world, the population is made up of more men than women. Some nations, however, have a population made up of more women. The gender imbalance in these countries can be traced back to war and conflicts. Studies show that this disparity is not desirable.
These countries have a high number of well- educated women who earn a high level of income but cannot find partners. Gender disparities in wages also put an economic strain on these countries. Men are more likely to suffer from mental health problems since more pressure is put on them to provide for the family.

An Introduction to Thai Cuisine at The Peninsula Bangkok Thai Cooking Class
Cooking classes in Bangkok are a common offering for tourists and food lovers. While there are many choices, some of the best lessons and experiences come from the finest hotels in the city.
The Peninsula Bangkok presents The Joy of Thai Cooking: An Introduction to Thai Cuisine.
The Class Experience
Guests are first introduced to Thai ingredients in a local market via an authentic tuk tuk ride – Thailand's famous three-wheeled taxi decorated in the Peninsula green and upgraded with Wi-Fi, cold bottled water, and a cold towel to cool off.
Back in the cooking class, located above the Thiptara kitchen (the hotel's Thai restaurant), the chef demonstrates and guides guests with each of the four courses. Every person makes their own dishes, which are tasted and approved by the chef. After the courses are cooked, you then enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Information about the classes
Prior to the class, which are arranged through advanced reservations with the hotel, you can choose your four courses of salad, soup, a main dish, and dessert (the selection can be found here). Classes are 3 hours, with an additional hour with the market visit, starting at 9:00am.
THB 4,000 per person without the market visit
THB 5,000 per person with the market visit

Founded in 1993, Pathacura is a CT based family-owned business providing disposal of regulated medical, chemotherapy, and Rx waste, as well as e-waste (computers ) for generators, x-rays and fixer in CT, NY, PA, RI & MA.
Used fixer from X-ray processing is a dangerous waste because it contains high concentrations of silver–3,000 to 8,000 parts per million— and anything over 5 ppm is dangerous waste. Because of these high silver levels, it's illegal to put used fixer down the drain, into a septic system or into the garbage.
Our staff is continuously trained to remain abreast of proper handling, removal, and disposal procedures to ensure the safety of your staff and patients. Our thorough documentation process protects the public, minimizes legal risk and creates a safe, compliant, worry-free environment; allowing you and your staff to dedicate your time and resources to the needs of your patients and clients.
As a locally based company, we provide convenient, cost-effective services for any customers generating 1-10 gallons per month. For amounts over this volume, we recommend using silver recovery units for the management of used fixer because it makes economic and practical sense to reclaim the silver.
We provide all services at a guaranteed 20% savings to your current provider, but often deliver savings up to 40%. Additionally, there are no long term contracts. If you are not happy for any reason you will not be held back by a restrictive long term contract.
Give us a call to schedule a cost free evaluation.

Prince Caspian is Jane's favorite Narnia book, but The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is mine. I remember reading it for the first time, sitting in a little blue folding chair on the back porch. What's odd is that I have no idea why I was sitting on the back porch; it wasn't a very pleasant place for sitting (it still isn't), and I don't remember doing such a thing at any other time. Out on the front patio, sure, but the back porch never.
But I digress.
I just finished reading it to my two boys, and while I'm not sure how much of the ending they really got, I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's one of those books that deepens each time I read it. The boys, for their part, were considerably amused by the Dufflepuds.Posted by Will Duquette at May 31, 2005 08:12 PM
Mark D. said:
"It's one of those books that deepens each time I read it." Me too. It's filled with powerful spiritual images - Goldwater Island never fails to chill me. And the renewed feast on the final island, and what follows, is almost as grand as The Last Battle's ending.
If you missed it, there's an interesting post + lengthy discussion on a certain reading peril over on Making Light: link.
The Narnia series is discussed in the comments.
Will Duquette said:
Re: the final feast, you're absolutely right. And it all went completely over my boys' heads. They've not made the Aslan=Jesus connection yet, and I'm in no rush to enlighten them; I figure it will have a bigger impact when they are both a little older.

Culture activity center for elderly in Chaoyang
90% of Chinese elderly people live at home. My project is a culture activity center containing six workshops; Calligraphy, Painting, Seal cutting, Chess and Tai Chi. There is a tearoom, a Chinese garden, and supporting functions for 100-150 elderly every day..
The process has been to search Chinese perceptions of space. Key words are relationship,
fluid, suspended, immanence, and enclosure.
"Western perception of space privileges the tangible over the intangible; with the Chinese, the converse is true. In Chinese conception of space, space is usually alluded to, or allegorized, and this holds true across many different disciplines of Chinese culture."
A traditional Chinese brick pavement covers the site. It articulates boundaries like a sheet of paper for a Chinese painting. A shop at the entrance faces inside; Chinese immanence paying attention to intrinsic qualities. To have view out and far is important. Overviews of trees in between volumes are softening the edge of volumes which form dynamic space.

Robert Monk was born 1780 in St Giles, Oxford, England. He died JAN 1853 in Madras, India.
Robert Monk's wife was Mary. They were married, but date and place are unknown. Their 9 known children were William Monk, Thomas Monk, Priscilla Monk, Charlotte Monk, William Monk, Cecelia Monk, Joseph Monk, Robert Monk and John Monk.
He was pensioned off from the 30th (Cambridgeshire) Regiment of Foot on 21 May 1828 see WO/120 Vol35 p.102
The following is from information found by Celeste Goulding
In November 1805, he states that he is 25, making him born in 1780, at St Giles, Oxford in the parish of St Giles but i have not been able to locate birth information for him, or any other Monk people from St Giles.
He enlisted in the 30th (Cambridgeshire) Regt of Foot on 29th November 1805 at Dublin.
He was discharged from the same regt at Fort St George on 2nd Aug 1827, aged 47.
He was pensioned on 21-5-1828.
He was stationed in India from 14 Oct 1806 - 30 July 1827
Rank at time of discharge: Private
Occupation: Breeches Maker
He signs his name as "Rob Monk"
Also, i had a look at this site http://www.headington.org.uk/oxon/stgiles/tour/index.htm which lists the owners of the all the main buildings in St Giles.
St Giles is a very small place but I did not see any Monk owners.
The year that he retires, 1827, seems to be about the time that breeches suddenly go right out of fashion.
The 30th Regt of Foot were in India from 1807-1829.
Movements whilst Robert Monk was in India are as follows :-
1807-1809 Madras
1809 Poonamallee
1810-1811 Trichinopoly
1812 Cannanore
1815 Vellore
1816-1817 Fort St George
1818 Masulipatam
1818 Secunderabad (Hyderabad)
1819 Asseerghur* (Asirgarh)
1819 Boorampoor*
1819 Khandish*(a state)
1819-20 Jaulna*(Jalna)
1825 Bhutpore
1819-1826 Secunderabad** (Hyderabad)
1825 Fort St George, Madras
1827 Fort St George, Madras
*Anglo Marathi War. Soldiers would have gone to these locations.
**If Robert Monk was a Breeches Maker at that time then he may have remained at the cantonement in Secunderabad. The birth of some of his children places his wife in Hyderabad during these years. Hyderabad=Secunderabad.

Jordan and Spring Break
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged El Hemmeh, Jordan, Wadi el Hasa on March 12, 2010| Leave a Comment »
Spring break is halfway done for us Baylor students. I've been spending it in about as frugal a way as you can imagine. I'm staying at my apartment and working in order to save up some money. The Texas Collection library employs me as an archival assistant; I've been spending much of the week there keeping an eye on the researchers who stop by. Besides working, I spend my time not buying things and finding amazing ways to stretch out my food supply. If you could picture some montage from a movie of a kid smashing his piggy bank, looking under the couch for change, and selling lemonade all for the sake of buying a new shiny red dreambike, that would be how I'm living my life right now.
Baylor class ring savings fund? Raided.
Stock I bought when I was 14? Sold.
21st birthday gift-checks? Not spent on booze.
I'm doing all this for just one reason: I will be going to Jordan this summer to take part in the 2010 el-Hemmeh excavation at Wadi el-Hasa (funded by National Geographic) along with some Stanford undergrads.
I just really need a plane ticket.
The fact that a significant portion of that statement was both italicized and bold-faced should show how excited I am about this. I've got my passport, my Jordanian Antiquities Department security forms are fine, and I'm purchasing my first Marshalltown trowel as I write this very sentence. Did I mention my excitement?
I just don't have a plane ticket.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to find out what the market value of a kidney is.
P.S. Baylor Vs. UT at Kansas City tonight. Sic 'em Bears!

A while after I wrote that post on Jared Diamond and the Easter island research that was published in Yoffee and McAnany's Questioning Collapse, Rhonda Shearer of Stinkyjournalism.org commented on it with some links to new posts on that site. Jared Diamond had a book review of Questioning collapse published in the February 18th edition of Nature. Although the book itself is practically dedicated to discrediting much of Diamond's research, there wasn't any sort of disclosure in nature about his position in regards to the book. Needless to say, the review is heavily critical. At the very least, the editors of Nature were not giving McAnany and Yoffee a fair shake without letting the readers know about the potential biases that Diamond may have brought into his review. So, this is an interesting example of a science media ethics debate.
Stinky journalism has been regularly updated with new information on all this. I've got some links for you.

Consumers should make a list of questions before they shop for a health plan. Consumers should gather information about household income and set a budget for health insurance. Consumers should find out if they can stay with their current doctors and pharmacy, and understand how insurance works – including getting an understanding of deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums and copayments.
There are a number of other resources from the Kaiser Family Foundation, Consumer Reports, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Labor to help consumers understand how insurance works, the different insurance options, and what to consider when you buy coverage.
A new standard form called the Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC), and the companion Uniform Glossary that includes a set of uniform definitions, are also available for all health insurance plans. This information can help consumers compare different insurance options. Consumers can get the form and definitions through the Health Insurance Marketplace or ask the plan for it.
If a consumer is eligible to buy coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace, he or she can enroll through a link on doi.nebraska.gov, the Marketplace website at HealthCare.gov, by phone at 800-318-2596, or in person through agents, navigators or certified application counselors. More information on these programs is found elsewhere on this website.
There are three types of individuals trained to help consumers make decisions about health coverage.
Health insurance agents sell insurance coverage on behalf of one or more insurance companies. Health insurance agents are licensed by Nebraska and receive continuing education related to their job. They can help educate consumers about health insurance policies, help consumers apply for coverage, and advise consumers about the type of health insurance coverage that best suits them and their family. Agents can sell consumers insurance plans in the market outside the exchange, as they always have.
Agents who want to sell policies through the Health Insurance Marketplace will have had extra training from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). They will have passed a test at the end of their training to sell insurance policies through the Health Insurance Marketplace. Consumers may wish to talk with more than one agent before making a decision on which plan to buy.
Navigators are individuals trained to help consumers understand the insurance policies available through the Health Insurance Marketplace and answer consumer questions about the Marketplace as well as insurance affordability programs, including Medicaid and CHIP. Navigators also can help educate consumers about their health insurance policy options and help them apply for coverage. Navigators get grants from the federal government and receive training on how to assist consumers. After training, they must pass a test and be certified by the federal government. Contact information for navigators can be found elsewhere on this website.
Certified application counselors are to provide enrollment assistance to consumers. Certified application counselors receive and successfully complete comprehensive training. They, too, can help educate consumers about health insurance plans and help them complete an application for coverage. Examples of application counselors include staff at local community health centers, hospitals or other consumer non-profit organizations.

WWE WrestleMania 34 is in the bag, so it's time for another reaction review and the usual Smack Talk Pay-Per-Viewpoint post-show podcast (which you can find at the end of this page.)
Let's dive into the reaction side of things first, though, and my initial response to the closing of WrestleMania was mostly confusion more than anything else.
There were plenty of positives and negatives in the midst of that confusion, and it's hard to even pinpoint exactly what I just watched, but I did want to call attention to a few things in particular.
I don't know how to feel about some of the surprise outcomes of these matches quite yet, and I have a sneaking suspicion I won't be able to fully judge this year's WrestleMania until at least Backlash, if not further down the line, which is rather strange.
Was it an amazing move to do something like end Asuka's undefeated streak here and not have that albatross continue to dictate her future, or will we look back and think it was wasted on Charlotte Flair, who arguably didn't need it?
My gut reaction is to not be upset about it, but maybe, based off how they balance the women's divisions, I might be annoyed about it in the coming weeks or months.
Likewise, I'm actually pretty damn happy with the decision to keep the WWE Championship on AJ Styles AND to turn Shinsuke Nakamura heel, as I didn't think Nakamura was quite ready for that task and I definitely hold more value to Styles as champion—but part of me can't help but feel like maybe this would have been better suited for Asuka to turn instead of Nakamura.
Also, I can't deny that there's at least part of me wishing that both Royal Rumble winners wouldn't have lost their title matches, yet I'd argue that if both had won, SmackDown would have felt strange and the outcomes would have been predictable.
I feel like a broken record saying that I perpetually don't support the idea of endorsing surprises for the sake of surprises in a blind sense, and I only like shocks when they're for the better, but some of the things that happened tonight came off to me like WWE might have changed the outcomes specifically just to keep people on their toes and not to fulfill the right objectives.
With Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar, I've yakked on and on about how I thought it was a bad idea to build this up for a year, and now I feel like we've had a full year build to absolutely nothing, for no reason, and it was a lose/lose situation.
If Reigns had won, it would have been predictable, so they went with Lesnar retaining for the surprise, but what does that accomplish? Does it make Lesnar look better? Who cares? Does it get Reigns over with the crowd? No. Does it convince the audience chanting "boring" and "this is awful" to go more with the WWE narrative? Absolutely not. Does it set up someone to swoop in and take the title and be a hero? I don't know, but I can't see anybody being in that position tomorrow night on Raw in a way that would make me feel like it was worth building a year up to WrestleMania and then throwing it away at the last minute.
I don't feel happy about the Universal Championship scene, but I do feel like some of the right steps were taken in the direction of things like the Cruiserweight Championship picture and the future of Ronda Rousey, who surprised the hell out of me and proved me wrong in every way to the point where I'm now pulling a 180 degree turnaround and going from dreading her appearances to looking forward to what's coming next.
For that matter, even though I was somewhat backing the Finn Balor horse in the Intercontinental Championship race (as I figured The Miz was a guaranteed loss, even though I like him better than both), the prospect of Seth Rollins holding that title has me excited for the midcard of Raw, which is much more than I can say about the midcard of SmackDown now that Jinder Mahal is a champion again. Pass on that one, majorly.
I don't even know what to think about this Nicholas situation with the Raw Tag Team Championship, but I've able to snuff out the voice in my head that says "this is ridiculous" and instead, have more of a viewpoint of "okay, I'm confused, take me for a ride and we'll see what happens."
Honestly, there were tons of highs and lows throughout this night for better or worse, and I don't know what the hell I just witnessed, but I do know it was a spectacle, and maybe that's all it really needed to be.
Then again, we'll see what tonight's episode of Raw has in store for us, as that might really reshape my perspective of all of this…
That is my immediate reaction in a general scope, but for more opinions on the show as a whole, check out the latest edition of the Smark Out Moment wrestling podcast SMACK TALK as the panel reviews WrestleMania 34 with our immediate reactions following the event before the dust has fully settled.

Can you survive the 14th wave of Bryan and Robert? Listen to our review of The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey!
Bryan's quick summary:
Humanity never expected aliens quite like this. After four unexpected waves of attacks exterminate most of humanity, Cassie is one of few humans left on earth. When the malicious visitors take on human form, Cassie must rely on a mysterious hunter to save her brother and preserve whatever scraps remain of civilization.
The Fifth Wave is by Rick Yancey.
So what did we think? (From a reader's perspective)
1. (Bryan) Man, I loved the concept of this book. Aliens figuring out what humans expect and then attacking them in the complete opposite way. Very cool and action packed. I liked the characters too and the way the story was told. An entertaining yarn for sure that's sure to keep readers excited.
2. (Robert) ) The story is fast-paced and has a great hook to start, with Cassie camping out in the woods, obviously having lost her family. The back story and the waves evolve nicely as her quest to stay alive unfolds. I found the book genuinely exciting, even if some of the action was hard to believe, or insufficiently explained to be able to suspend disbelief. Warning: There's some mild sexual content and plenty of "romantic scenes", so age 13+ for this "young adult".
3. (Robert) The different "waves" make for fun descriptions (although always prompting the question: these aliens are super-advanced. Why such archaic, PHYSICAL methods of extinction?). It's easy as the reader to put yourself in the place of a typical human, somehow trusting that we'd survive, yet hopelessly out-maneuvered by a superior race.
What did we think from a writer's perspective?
1. (Bryan) Maybe I've read too much dystopian and watched too much sci-fi, but I thought it was a little predictable. Of course the guy being trained is going to be Ben Parrish. Of course the guy who saves Cassie is an alien. That didn't diminish my enjoyment, but it may have been a bit paint by numbers. I may have liked the setup more than the payoff, but that's just me.
2. (Robert) I agree with many of the 1-star reviewers that there is so much in this novel that seems unbelievable. Super-powerful aliens who insist on odd plans. Young girls who cart around M16s and ammunition like they grew up in the Middle East (and with not much explanation). Clichéd romance scenes. Clichéd EMP burst events, but no explanation as to how they got power and vehicles working again (if they'd been "fried"). Hard to believe escape sequences. None of which would make me give this book a 1-star review, as I still enjoyed all the excitement and action! Strange ending though.
3. (Robert) The author tries a little too hard to convince us he can write a female character, and because of this, the character suffers from sounding a little stupid (searching for tampons?). This clearly disturbed plenty of female reviewers!
Bryan and Robert's Famous Takeaways:
1. Raise the stakes. It doesn't get much higher than 7 billion people killed.
2. This is still an enjoyable novel, for anyone who loves alien dystopian stories. Yes, maybe there are better, but it's still a great read … and hopefully one day an amazing movie.
3. Research your genre and make sure your use of weaponry is accurate, as well as testing your assumptions about alien behavior and how to "explain" it.
Prompt of the Week:
What would you do if you were the last human on Earth? How would you spend your days and how would you survive?

This particular post should be entitled "How to be a Beverly Hills badass" but we left our filter on. Having said that, the super smokin' awesome crew at Heelys gifted Wynn with a supreme set up of their Fresh X2 street skates, Triple 8 safety pack, Heelys signature beanie, loads of stickers & rubber wrist bling so he took them for a spin down Beverly Drive in Beverly Hills, CA! A bit shaky at first but with the super cool How 2 Heel video and advice from his older sister, Sami who had a pair of Heelys when she was younger, he was off and rolling in no time! Not even gonna lie, Wynn wasn't just catching air…several kids (and adults) did a stop and stare when he rolled by!
Wynn loves his new Heelys and I personally love that he's getting fresh air & exercise while using them, not to mention building up those little leg muscles! A+ award and a fantastic gift for the Holiday season for both boys & girls on your Nice List!

I am and always have been a huge believer in the universe and the exquisite force it's able to flex. Walking a straight line into divine intervention, we were introduced to Feather Drum by our good friend and amazing professional stylist extraordinaire, Kiki Tillman. Because I am a believer, whenever intertwined with someone new, I instantly look for the "connection"…you know the invisible red thread that binds those that are destined to meet in some way, shape or form.
The red thread is this: Feather Drum designer, Kelly-Lee "draws her inspiration from her life-long love of French design, her local environment and her natural bohemian style to produce this gorgeous range of quality garments that are fashion forward, sophisticated and fun to wear for free-spirited girls and boys." Wynn is part French, I am part Bohemian (and yes, it's a real ethnic background and yes there really was a country called Bohemia that is now referred to only as the Czech Republic). Wynn is also part Native American and whether the designer intended this or not, several pieces breathe of a long lost Indian tribe. As for the free spirit part, if you've learned anything at all from our instagram about my son then you know this was a direct hit.
Feather Drum Dreamer Sweater (Wynn is wearing size 6) paired with Scotch Shrunk bleached denim scarf & H&M optic white denim.

For sizing reference, Wynn is wearing size 8 in both tee and jacket perfectly yet with room to grow.
Rowen Christian Couture launched just last year yet has already been making major waves in the boys denim department.

Wynn is wearing their new for Spring 2015 Brayden Classic Short which is extremely soft with a very luxurious feel. For sizing reference, Wynn is wearing size 7 with the waist slightly adjusted (great feature!).
Since day one…Dr. Martens (and Vans) have been on Wynn's feet for a reason. They outlast every single one of his adventures and provide the level of comfort for his feet that he demands. For the Spring & Summer months, diehard fans can opt for canvas versus leather boots for the breathe ability factor. Wynn is wearing Dr. Martens Delaney in British Camo canvas.

Our first fashion edit for 2015 features La Miniatura and their newest collection for Spring! We were given the opportunity to test-wear a few of their amazing designs prior to their worldwide public debut coming soon.
Brought back for Spring 2015 is their seersucker suits and seperates only this time with a dip-dye twist. Available in 3 colorways (black, navy, tan) with the same classic appeal and lofty-soft fabric. Pushing the kids fashion world forward is and always has been signature La Miniatura since day one.
Designer, Jeffrey Sebelia continues to satisfy the diehard Teddy Boys era fans like myself with the first ever foil-denim for boys and girls that at first glance appears to be made of oil slick leather. Exclusive only to La Miniatura– Cone Denim fabric with a 4-way stretch and adjustable waistband that stays true to form and supremely comfortable, even for those rebels that stick their noses up at the shear thought of wearing anything but sweatpants.
Punchy graphic tees that celebrate fashion and music trends of years gone by are the chosen ones for La Miniatura's Spring 2015 collection. From the Punk Revolution era to the funky Roller Disco days, each one is constructed of silky soft fabric and dyed to withstand a multitude of washings and wearings.
Is there ever anything better than the real thing? Cult era logos like Chanel & Coca-Cola reappear in true fashion wearing style form. Fully licensed to La Miniatura and without a doubt a huge hit that spans numerous genres.
Printed button-downs, color block polos, plaid-infused shirts- all directed at keeping up with La Miniatura's tagline of "Dress your kid with dignity". Sleek cuts that are not too slender or too boxy with a fit that runs true to size.
Paint-splattered denim in the same super stretchy fabric is available in two colorways with the same fit as their foil and staple crayon denim jeans.
Beatniks and little hipsters along with prepsters (don't get it twisted, prepster and hipster are two totally different styles) can easily find comfort in buttoned-up polos and rolled up denim and presents as yet another nod to the Teddy Boys era!
We were given just six sneak peeks of their girls and boys collection to share with you. La Miniatura's Spring 2015 collection will be shipping this month to fine retailers worldwide and will also be available online at www.laminiaturakids.com.

How to Teach a Horse to Lead and Tie
"Great color photos . . . This is a very useful book that starts at the imminent signs of birth and continues through from foal imprinting to breaking in the young horse as a three-year-old."--Valley Country
The natural instinct of a horse is to fight against anything that restricts the movement of his head. In the wild, they need complete freedom to survey the landscape, see threats from afar and to deal with threats nearby. A horse that needs to run, rear, buck or kick needs to move his head to keep balanced. This means you need to overcome the fear you will create as soon as you try to restrict his head.
A horse will naturally pull back against any pressure on his head. Tying him before he has learned to give to the pressure instead of pulling back will endanger both you and the horse. It is common for a horse to panic if he is not adequately prepared. If he pulls hard enough to break either halter or lead rope, he can easily fall over backward, perhaps landing on top of structures or equipment that is nearby. He may also break his neck just by pulling. As he is pulling, he may also lash out with his front feet, striking whatever is in front of him, including you. Horses have hung their front leg in the crotch of trees and then fallen, hanging by the trapped leg. A horse may also suddenly lunge forward, trying to run over whatever is holding him.
Dr. Miller experimented with his own foals, maximizing their handling at the time of birth to imprint them. He added desensitizing procedures and later conditioned responses to create "imprint training," a technique that's now in use all over the world, with all breeds and other precocial species, as well. This book contains Dr. Miller's theories and techniques, including step-by-step procedures involving bonding, habituation and sensitization.
Before a halter is placed on the young horse, he should be prepared by allowing him to sniff or otherwise become familiar with the halter, by having the handler touch, pull or push on his head with their hand, and by having the handler touch, push and pull on his neck. Cues using the halter and lead rope are communicated by pulling or pushing, so preparing the horse to give to these pressure points before the halter is used will help keep him calm after he is haltered. The first haltering should not be a complete haltering. It should only be the first step of placing his nose in the noseband, then taking it off again. This should be repeated until he is calm each time. Then the sides of the halter can be pushed into place by hand, repeating this until all fear and resistance is gone. Only then should the crown piece be placed over his head, again repeating until he is calm. When this is done right, the final buckling should be easy for him to accept without fear.
The halter should never be left on a loose horse because they can get it caught on the fence or, if it is badly fitted, he may even be able to get a leg trapped in it. Either incident will create panic and injury, perhaps even death.
When introducing the horse to the halter, you should work inside his corral. During the process of teaching him to trust you, you can use treats to entice him to take a few steps toward you. When he does, use a verbal command, such as "come." Soon he will learn that "come" means move forward and get a treat. This verbal cue will be handy when you are ready to ask him to lead for the first time.
Horses are a precocial species which means they are ready and able to learn shortly after birth. Enhanced Foal Training uses age appropriate games and exercises to help develop a a foal's mind power long before it is time to tap into his horse power. (DVD)
The first thing to teach a horse with the halter is to give to its pressure. There are five pressure points you will use: the poll, under the jaw, the nose, right cheek and left cheek. Before you use a halter, you can prepare him for this task by applying pressure on the last four with your hand. He should move away from the pressure. It is difficult to simulate the same pressure on the poll using just your hand, but you can prepare him for pressure there by rubbing on it and even lightly pushing down.
Once he is comfortable wearing the halter, pull gently left until he turns his head left. Repeat on the right. Turning his head when he feels pressure on his cheek is less threatening than feeling pressure on his poll. When he is comfortable giving side to side, then lightly pull forward on the nose piece, creating pressure under his jaw. If he takes a step, reward him. If he simply extends his nose, reward him. Both are signs he is willing to give in to the pressure under his jaw The forth pressure point is his nose. When pressure is placed on his nose, you want him to give, either taking a step backward or tucking his nose toward his chest. All of these should be well-trained before any pressure is placed on the poll. The poll is very delicate, and he can cause himself severe injury if he fights the pressure there. Some trainers prefer to use a rope to place pressure on other parts of his neck, allowing him to learn to give to that pressure before placing any pressure on the poll.
This book is a reflection of my heritage with horses. It comes from both sides of the saddle, so to speak, because both of my grandfathers were excellent horsemen. One grandpa was Cherokee and rode with the Kiowa horsemen in the early days of Indian Territory. They call it Oklahoma today. He gave credit to the Kiowa people for our unique way of working with a mare in-foal in order to blend our spirit with the foal.
Some people feel they need to keep pulling on the rope until the horse gives in and moves toward them. This is a fallacy. In many horses, this will simply teach them to fight and to move backward. It is better to pull lightly, asking him to give, then releasing the pressure if he doesn't. Wait a few seconds, then pull again. Repeating this process will teach him to expect the pressure. As he realizes it doesn't hurt, he'll relax and give to the pull a little more each time pressure is applied. Each time he gives, reward him and he will soon look forward to earning the next reward by giving a bit more. Once he takes a step or two forward to earn the reward, he is ready to learn to lead.
The easiest way to teach a young horse to lead is to work him beside another horse he trusts. Have another handler control that horse. When that horse is walked, put slight pressure on the lead rope to cue the young horse to walk. He will probably move forward to stay with his trusted friend. As soon as he does, the other horse should stop, and he should be rewarded. If this doesn't work, another person could be behind the youngster to urge him forward with sounds like clicking their tongue, talking or clapping of their hands, but that person should not touch or hit the horse in anyway. That could cause the youngster to kick or to plunge forward over top the handler. If two helpers are present, they could hold a long rope between them, moving slowly forward toward the youngster. Many young horses will move forward to avoid allowing the rope to touch them, but others might kick, so the helpers should never be within kicking range. Again, the youngster should be rewarded as soon as he takes one or two steps forward.
Before a horse is tied, he must know how to submit to being haltered without fear, how to follow the person holding the rope, how to give to pressure on both the halter and the rope, and how to understand the cues transmitted through the halter and the rope. When he is tied, the rope should never be tied hard and fast. It should always have a slip knot or quick breakaway clip that the handler can pull easily to release him.
The safest way to teach a young horse to tie is illustrated in the video: tied high, with a little slack, and nothing close he can get a foot or head caught in,
A sturdy crosstie is safer than one rope tied to a tree or hitching rack in front of him. Two people can simulate the pressure of a cross tie by having one hold the rope on each side. This added step will help him learn he cannot walk forward, backward or turn his head without endangering him as he learns.
It is important to plan ahead for an emergency. Have something to cut the rope with and a first aid kit. Try to have two people in attendance. Scout the area for possible hazards and remove them. Rocks under foot are a hazard too. With a little planning, your youngster can learn in safety and without too much fear.

Firstly, the fatigue strength of container ship hatch coaming structural detail is studied by Spectral Fatigue Analysis in this paper, and influencing factors are investigated. Secondly, corrosion effects with uncertainty are introduced, and thus the probabilistic characteristics under simultaneous uniform corrosions (however, with different scales) throughout the cargo tank structure are obtained, and surrogate models are built to replace the Finite Element Analyses that are time consuming. Additionally, corrosion models are modified so as to deal with the gradual corrosion problem while maintain probabilistic features. Finally, the fatigue strength's probabilistic characteristics as a function of time is investigated numerically, and regression form models are derived.

Here are just a few of the services that TargetClose currently offers:
White Glove Service
We work directly with your marketing team to take your design from rough mockups to a tailor-made, direct-response experience.

We make it all easy so your integration is a snap. And you can focus on maximizing conversions and revenues.

Whatever you want to refine, TargetClose is flexible enough to quickly help you find the winning combination of elements that close deals.
TargetClose HPC's (High Performance Channels) let you create a dynamic microsite that optimizes itself to convert the customer. Not everyone gets the same experience!

Configurable Cart
Other carts are static, meaning they're not configurable or testable. But this page is the most important: It's where your revenue lives – or dies. Why is the cart an afterthought in other offerings? Shouldn't you be able to test different carts as well as page flows? We agree. That's why TargetClose lets you try different carts, or embed different carts in different places, or try carts with different offers or upsells, or even try upsells after the cart.
Post-Click Optimization
You've gone to a lot of trouble to get them here. But visitors don't equal sales. It's what you do after the click that matters the most. And visitors are not all created equal – traffic from one campaign or time of day may respond to one creative or offer, but visitors from another traffic source or time of day may respond in a completely different manner. Cracking these patterns is the key to cracking open the maximum revenue potential for you – and only TargetClose gives you the tools that you need to do this.
Know what campaigns are driving what behaviors – and know where to double down on your spend, and where to pull back.
Business Intelligence
TargetClose lets you distinguish which sales were produced by which campaigns – whether they are on television, on the web, radio or elsewhere. Tie specific sales back to specific campaigns and media spends. Omniscient, big-data knowledge about your omni-media campaign. Don't guess. Know.
Increase Conversion Rate
To increase your conversion rate, you need to know what magic combination of factors actually produces sales. And only by optimizing specifically for conversion – the creative, the upsells, the traffic sources (and understanding all of this deeply) – can you reach your objective.
Bounce Rate
Once you get them here, make sure you don't lose them. TargetClose helps you hone your creative to keep them around. Get the knowledge you need to reduce your bounce rate.
Increase Average Order Value
Maybe your offer only pencils when the average order reaches a certain dollar threshold. This is a different target to optimize toward than just a plain conversion. TargetClose lets you tune your creative and offer toward a path that leads your customers over this threshold – and brings you only the customers that provide this value to you.
Lifetime Value
Or you might be more interested in the long-term view. You might have a subscription or continuity offering. So you take the long view. This is another objective TargetClose can optimize for. Learn which creative, offers, page flows, traffic sources and other factors combine to deliver you customers who buy from you over and over again.

- noun the craniometric point at the lowest point on the lower edge of the orbit
Sorry, no etymologies found.
Like Martin I too thought the different behaviour of your examples 'hospital' 'orbital' and 'digital' might be due to dissimilation, but the parallel with Italian ospedale vs orbitale and digitale, made me think it might be more likely to be because 'hospital' is of greater antiquity and familiarity than the other two, at least in their current main senses.
Uita-te la cat de mult ne-am dificultate păstrarea sateliţi care funcţionează în orbita în jurul planetei noastre? radiaţiile solare, temperaturi extreme, precum şi resturile orbitale sunt constant ştergerea reţeaua noastră de utilaje care deservesc noi din spaţiu.
The orbital septum (septum orbitale; palpebral ligament) is a membranous sheet, attached to the edge of the orbit, where it is continuous with the periosteum.
X. The Organs of the Senses and the Common Integument. 1c. 3. The Accessory Organs of the Eye
And ML's comparison with Italian ospedale and orbitale supplies a very telling one.

- About this book
Bob Mizon, one of the world's best known campaigners against the veil of light pollution that has taken away the starry sky from most of the world's population, takes readers to a hundred places in the UK and the USA where the wonders of the night sky might still be enjoyed in perfect or near-perfect night skies. Visiting small hotels and simple campsites, and savoring vast dark-sky reserves where the night sky is actively protected, The Million-Star Hotel celebrates the black skies of yesteryear – which may become a reality for more and more of us as modern technology reins in lighting and puts it only where needed.How can you prepare for your stay beneath the stars? What astronomy can you do during the daytime? What kind of equipment will you need? Questions such as these are answered, and if town dwellers return inspired – and, Bob hopes, also inspired to look with fresh eyes at their own local lighting – there is enough information here for them to equip themselves for some urban astronomy too.
- About the authors
Bob Mizon, MBE, FRAS [Bob likes to point out that his name rhymes with 'horizon'] is a graduate in modern languages, but is much better known as an astronomer. Having taught for 26 years at Poole Grammar School – where he met his wife Pam – he embarked on a rather daring career change in 1996. Responding to a lifelong love of astronomy, he became a planetarium operator, and now takes a stunning mobile dome into schools, youth groups, and societies all over southern England. Over 130,000 people have experienced a tour of the Universe with Bob at the controls!
Bob is best known in the scientific and environmental community as the co-ordinator of the British Astronomical Association's Campaign for Dark Skies, which aims to turn back the tide of light pollution that has seriously affected our view of the stars over the last fifty years. Glare, light-intrusion and skyglow have become the norm nowadays, a situation hardly compatible with a society that is supposed to be saving energy and protecting the environment.
- Reviews
"The book is written as though the author has visited all the places described, and the style is very readable. The text is peppered with useful web addresses for local campsites, hotels, park opening times, etc. ... If the reader is determined to seek out all the dark places in the UK and the United States, this book will be invaluable ... ." (Malcolm Gough, The Observatory, Vol. 137 (1258), June, 2017)

My name is Frank Chen, and I am teaching a seminar at UCLA called CS 88S: Safety in the Cloud – Introduction to Cybersecurity in Spring 2017. This course is an preliminary introduction to the field of cybersecurity. We will study a variety of topics that are important for a regular consumer of technology. This course has great relevance in our current society: cyber attacks and data leaks are becoming more mainstream. A shared belief in the journalism field is that "nothing is more important to democracy than an educated electorate"; the same can be said for education in cybersecurity. It is more important than ever for everyone to be cybersecurity-aware.
This is an online form for anyone not enrolled but interested in following along with the course!
No programming or computer science background is required to understand the material – just excitement for a more cybersecurity-aware society! I'll be sending out weekly emails + resources.

World of Warcraft: An Interview with Theliah
Posted by David Dawson on Sunday, November 23, 2008
World at Warcraft. The crack of the gaming world. But what makes it so addicting? For answers, we (meaning me) at the Wonderful World of Gaming went to the site co-creator, Theliah.
WWoG: Have you played the previous Warcraft games? What were your experiences?
Theliah: It was a fun game to play. The campaign took a while. I met some friends while playing online, and some enemies. :D I was really bad at the game, but all the online custom maps were great. Wacraft is an all around fun game to play.
WWoG: How is WoW different from the older games?
Theliah: WoW is an MMORPG, where as the Warcraft games were RTS games. WoW is an entirely different experience. It is much more of a hardcore game. WoW is so huge, even after 2 and a half years of playing, I haven't even seen half of the game. O_O WoW is really fun to play, and if you're willing to pay the $15 a month, then BUY IT! BUY IT NAO!
WWoG: Do you prefer the MMORPG or RTS? Are either of these your favorite genre?
Theliah: I prefer playing MMORPG games. They are more fun, and the fun lasts a LOT longer than an RTS game. MMORPGs are definitely my favorite Genre, but can get boring after over 1 year of playing. RTS is my fallback plan.
WWoG: Is there even a story for WoW?
Theliah: Yes. WoW has an original story, following after Warcraft 3's expansion pack. Each WoW expansion continues the story forward. With the release of the expansion, the Burning Crusade, the Burning Legion, a great power was gaining strength. The forces of the Horde and Alliance had to fight this evil. They assaulted the Outland in an attempt to drive back and destroy Illidan Stormrage's army. The war goes on.
WWoG: Customization. What can't you customize in this game?
Theliah: Nothing really. You're equipment, hair, everything! There's even clothes for every occasion! Tuxedos, dresses, etc. WoW is too much like real life in many ways. O_O
WWoG: So essentially it eats your life and spits up a twitchy little nerdling?
Theliah: Yes, exactly.
WWoG: Other than playing dressup, what is the gameplay like? How big is the focus on combat?
Theliah: Incredibly focused. Half of the game is just PvP. There is a crazy amount fighting in it. The game IS called World of WARCRAFT. The gameplay is cool. Killing enemies gets you rewards, and questing will level you. The gameplay has so many things to do, you can't explain it all in one paragraph. Or ten.
WWoG: Can you pick some outstanding gameplay features?
Theliah: Yes, the 40 and 25 man raids are incredibly fun and awesome to participate in. The PvP with tons of NPCs and players is so cool to watch! Doing things with like 40 people, is like awesome!
WWoG: So it's like an online orgasm of nerdlings?
Theliah: Precisely.
WWoG: Is there any truth to the rumor that MMORPG stands for Many Men Online Role Playing as Girls?
Theliah: Yes, it's partially true. If you played WoW, you would notice a very high rate of girl players, while not many actually play WoW. Obviously, freakish people play as girls just for fun, or just for other reasons.....
WWoG: Okay, our readers have been thoroughly disturbed by you sick bastards... so, how are the graphics? Do you encounter technical difficulty often?
Theliah: Not really. The graphics aren't that good, and are very "Cartoonish". They definitely don't compare to next gen games at all. Frame rates drop to below zero in highly popluated places, though.
WWoG: Did this game meet your expectations?
Theliah: Yes, I didn't really know what to expect when I started playing. WoW is a whole new experience. It's a whole new genre of MMORPG.....
WWoG: What would you give this out of 10?
Theliah: 9/10 For sure.
WWoG: Excited about Wrath of the Lich King?
Theliah: Before it released, the game turned to chaos. The lag was incredible, and so many crashes. Anyway I want to get a Death Knight so much. They would be so fun to play as. Also, I want to do the new raids!
WWoG: Thank you for your time
Theliah: YOUR WELCOME TEHEMOGUY!!! (My name on Xfire)
So there you have it. The game zombifying a generation revealed. Worthy of a 9/10 in Theliah's eyes, so if you're willing to drop your life down the shitter (in the good way) pick up a copy.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley told lawyers for Christine Blasey Ford that it is not the FBI's role to investigate her allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Grassley reiterated in a letter that Ford is invited to testify before the panel on Monday, either in public or in private. Ford has accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault and her lawyers have said a full investigation by law enforcement is needed before she can testify.

Though I've apparently been on a bit of a vacation from this blog, I did idly consider writing various posts on pleasant topics over the Christmas holidays. Unfortunately, the impulse to not write was compounded by the general impulse to sit, eat, and drink by the fire. And since getting back to St. John's, class prep has kept me pretty insanely busy.
So it's unfortunate that I feel prompted to return to ye olde blog on a dark and disturbing subject. Since Representative Gabrielle Giffords and numerous others were shot this past Saturday by a deeply disturbed and mentally unbalanced young man in Arizona, the rhetoric and argument has saturated the blogosphere. Aside from the predictable back-and-forthing between rightwing and leftwing pundits, it has been heartening to see a significant amount of thoughtful, sober discussion.
That being said, I have attempted for the past three days or so to compose my own thoughts on the subject, and really failed entirely. And then, listening to President Obama's speech in Tucson, I just gave up—he said everything I would have wanted to say, and said it better. By several orders of magnitude. In the face of such a tragedy, he said, "We recognize our own mortality, and are reminded that in the fleeting time we have on this earth, what matters is not wealth, or status, or power, or fame - but rather, how well we have loved, and what small part we have played in bettering the lives of others."

I can't believe it is already May. Almost half of the year is gone.
But with the approach of the winter, Sydney heads into party and play mode. May was the month of the Mother's Day with great family time, flowers, chocolates, long lunches and gifts. And the end of May marks the beginning of the Vivid Festival, which is a one of the great tourist attractions in Sydney.
This year the organisers of the Vivid Festival came with a very different concept. The Opera did not put on bright colours. It was rather sober, mostly gray, brown and green as it featured giant figures moving around the sails. Very original, though different from what we got used to by the light shows of the previous years. See some images here and compare with the last year.
The Vivid Festival continues until June 11. Here are some of the other things to do in Sydney in June and some more images of the lights on the Customs House and the Museum of Contemporary Art.
