New adoption laws encounter age-old prejudice
Korea seeks to stem export of babies to overseas families
November 5, 2012
Since the end of the Korean War, just less than a quarter of a million South Korean children have been adopted. A large majority of them – 164,612 – were adopted by families overseas, according to the Health and Welfare Ministry. This makes South Korea the world's fourth largest "orphan exporter" after China, Russia and Guatemala. It is also a reversal of the worldwide trend, where statistics show that 85 percent of adopted children remain in their countries of birth. What is the reason for this anomaly? "Koreans are rather picky in adoption, preferring girls, the same blood type as the parents and good health," says Suh Suk-kyung, director of the Holy Family Child Adoption Center, Korea's only Catholic-run domestic adoption center. "As a result, parents may have to be found overseas for boys and children with disabilities." The center was established in 1989 by the late Cardinal Stephen Kim Sou-hwan who was concerned about the numbers going overseas and wanted to offer Korean children for domestic adoption only. Now it seems that the government has come round to Cardinal Kim's way of thinking. It encourages domestic adoption by paying all the adoptive family's adoption expenses and health insurance until the child turns 18. If psychological therapy or counseling is deemed necessary for the child, which is often the case, the government pays the fees. And with the Special Adoption Law which was passed in August, it also tightened up procedures and brought in a more transparent process, a much more stringent registration system and better protection for the children. These moves may help to stem trafficking and human rights abuses, but they present a new problem; they now make it mandatory for an adopted child to clearly have the word "adopted" on their identity papers. In this Confucian society, birth out of wedlock is still seen as highly shameful – and adoption carries much of the same stigma. Reverend Lee Jong-rak has been running a 'Baby Box' in Seoul since 2009, where mothers can leave unwanted babies. He says his intake is increasing, with mothers leaving notes saying they have no alternative, "because of the new law." Oh Min-ha was diagnosed with infertility one year after her marriage, around 12 years ago. She adopted two daughters, but says she often experiences "inner conflict" over whether she should tell people, because of the social prejudice against adopted children. But Pyoun Mee-hee, professor of welfare at Baekseok University, believes these problems are transitory. Ultimately she believes the new law will bring benefits, especially for adoptees who may want to find their roots later. "This is a transition period," she says. "Let's wait at least six more months and see." Related report Church domestic adoption center marks 20th year

Howdy Shouter, Yesterday (15th March 2015), I organised a paid blogging workshop in Bengaluru and we all had a great time.

This was the #3 workshop organised by ShoutMeLoud, and first outside Delhi. Next Workshop is happening in Pune in the month of April.

Best of Blogging From 2014- ShoutMeLoud Edition
2014 was a year of change for blogger as a lot has changed in the way we blog. Apart from noticeable shift towards mobile approach, we have noticed a lot of changes in SEO. Guest blogging is dead, authorship doesn't exist anymore and mobile optimised site is now a ranking factor. Blogging is also becoming a primary channel for big brands and companies for marketing and I'm hopeful to see blogging reaching new heights in 2015.

IMO, it's MM games to keep driving the price down.
RE: ONCS...Not really paying attention to that right now, but I believe they will try to lower it as much as they can today, but I believe May and first part of June will be good for ONCS.
Shttt what do I know...probably shouldn't be saying anyting at this point in time.
I did add some yesterday but I am not concerned with ONCS...I am concerned with this one.
I hear ya bud. I lost another 7k trying to flip it. Needless to say I'm done going to the well on this one. Just cut my losses here. The real shltty thing of it all is momentum trading in the sector has been taken over by shorts. So, trying to even play a run-up into a catalyst has just become that much more difficult. GILD looks like a safer play, but with safety comes less on returns. And even that may not be safe if the market decides to take a dump. Fauking retail never wins. Ugh!
No problem, put another order $1.25.....
Not worth it. The next catalyst isn't for awhile. And to hope for a partnership just isn't wise. If the sector wasn't in a bear market I'd consider it, but way too risky right now.
Holy Cow
Pete are you on the Bid again?
This is #$%$.
I almost took the ask, but I still have my doubts about being able to flip anything large as a retailer. MM will see it on L2 and give me the bird.
Mother faukers they are.
Working for a few short funds I am sure. Mkt is not rigged though. Totally honesty across the board.
It's total BS bro, but what can retail do? They name the game, pick their pieces and roll first every time. We only have 2 choices. Play those odds or don't play. At least we know HOW they play. It gives us something and that's better than nothing.

What was Angel's excuse to get a few hours away from her boyfriend today? That she was going to go hang out with a friend. Awww. Angel thinks we're friends. In her second ever adult video all of Angel's holes are on the menu.
I mean...look at that. How do you say no to a girl that JUST graduated high school a couple days ago when she says she wants to shoot a fuck flick? You don't. Bianca is likely headed to LA to fuck her 18 year old brains out but you absolutely 100% saw her here first!
This gorgeous - 18 year old - multi-orgasmic - first timer considers herself a bit of a submissive. As she admits in her interview, she wants to feel safe, but she wants to be fucked as if she doesn't have a choice. Fair enough, Misti! Our guy fucks her face before spreading her open on the bed and having his way with her. GO WATCH HER NOW!!!
Brookln is back and this time she's spreading those chocolatey cheeks for some anal fun. Given how hard it was to get just a finger past her tight little hole I was worried this scene wasn't going to turn out but I was so so wrong. She found a position that hit the right spot and was soon begging to be fucked in the ass.
According to Kelcee, any girl that says she doesn't like being slapped or choked while she's being fucked is a liar. I don't know about ANY girl but Kelcee definitely likes being slapped and choked. And being spanked. And having her hair pulled. And being called a little whore. And And And. Go see this busty amateur get used and abused in the members area RIGHT NOW!
I'm in love with Hailey. If I could ever commit to one woman it would be a girl exactly like her. She's got perfect girl next door looks, she speaks softly, she has a nervous innocence about her that gives me a huge boner, aaaaaaaand, shes a filthy slut.

2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT 2dr Convertible (3.0L 6cyl 5M)
I have had this car for almost a year now and have had no problems whatsoever. It is very fun in the summer, but able to keep warm in the winter as well. Leather seats a must with the convertible. I drive back and forth from home to school, a 200 mile drive, every weekend and it handles great on the interstates.
The pick-up, the V6 is definitely the way to go. I also like the smoothness of cruising and how it's not too bad with gas. The 4 disc CD changer and the ease of putting the top up and down are great as well.
The back seats are VERY tiny and can get uncomfortable after a while and the visibility is somewhat hard to get used to. The rims are not the best quality.
2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GS 2dr Convertible (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
I have no had problem with this car. Just the usual oil changes and maintenance. Everthing works excellently. It is worth the money that I spent on it. It is the best sporty car I have driven.
The excellent pickup, smooth ride quality even at high speed, very good shock absorbers, interior design, and bucket seats. This is a great convertible that is not expensive.
None, I am totally satisfied.
I was never a "big fan" of the body style change of the Eclipse in 2000, but I must say the Spyder still looks good. It is fun to drive and will get looks everywhere you go (and I'm not just saying that). With the top up it maintains a very sleek low profile. I have a burgundy GT with the tan top, which is very stylish. The version GT with the 3.0L engine is a must! Its gas mileage is almost exactly the same as the smaller engine (1 mile per gallon difference) so why skimp? The tiptronic auto is the best of both worlds, auto for in town and switch it to manual when it's time to have some fun. I highly recommend the car if you are looking for a convertible with extra seating. The rear seats might be a little tight, just hope for small kids.
The GT convertible version with the "shift-o- matic" auto transmission for the wife and the manual transmission for me! The 3.0 liter V6 engine is a must! I like how aftermarket parts are cheap!
I personally think that the car would look great about a inch and a half lower, it would just add to the profile. I have just ordered a lowering kit for my suspension, I'm not a "hot rodder" but I just like the low profile look.
I bought this car as my third convertible. I had two Sebring Convertibles prior to this one. I have to say that they never gave me the type of trouble this car has given me. The car has cost me so much money in repairs it's ridiculous. So far I have had a rear differential pressure sensor short which cost about $500 to replace, a center speaker blow, a total new set of rims because they bend so easily (they are cheap and the new ones have already begun to bend at the edges), an instrument panel and center stack light burn out, and a fog lamp replaced. To add injury to insult, the rear differential pressure sensor blew because of a Mitsubiahi dealer mechanic leaving off the radiator hose!
The car looks nice, but as with most things, looks can be deceiving. I love the styling, but the headaches are far from worth the constant problems I've had with this vehicle. I had to file my first lawsuit because of this car against the dealer. My next car will be a Lexus or Audi. Never again!
I will never buy a Mitsubishi product again. The build quality is unacceptable. This car has a superbly cheap interior! After three Chryslers with relatively few problems, I'm astonished that a company, particulary a Japanese one, can have such awful reliability issues and even more dismal dealers / mechanics.
Use premium gas, it's worth it as the 6 burns it like a hog...Premium goes farther. Highway mileage is not bad at all. We'll see what the '06 brings.
Nice heavy car. Great stereo.
Lousy turning radius. Back seat gets pummelled with the top down.

Eddie and Sharon Nichols: Prominent East Texas Cop/Pastor and Wife Charged with Sex Crime
Authorities in the east Texas town of Marshall say a local cop / pastor and his wife, an assistant clerk in the county clerk's office, committed indecency with a child by contact.
Huey Edwards "Eddie" Nichols Jr., 49, and his wife Sharon Nichols, 33, were arrested Friday. Police there say the arrest came about after the victim -- a student at Marshall's Texas State Technical College -- told her school counselor about the contact. The counselor told campus cops, who took the case in turn to the Harrison County Sheriff's Department, Eddie Nichols' employer for the past three-and-a-half years. Realizing their possible conflict of interest they called in the county DA's office and the Texas Rangers and other agencies.
Prior to that he had been a Marshall city cop for 13 years, not to mention the department's chaplain. He is currently listed as occupying the pulpit at Marshall's Harvest Christian Fellowship.
Part of Sharon Nichols's job at the county clerk's office is to sign marriage certificates, as one East Texas Internet commenter noted to her dismay.
Eddie Nichols is charged with two counts of indecency with a child by contact and his bond was set at $200,000. As of yesterday he was still behind bars. His wife's bond was set at half that and she is a free woman. If convicted of the second-degree felony, each could be sent to prison for two to twenty years.

"The snows of Kilimanjaro" by Ernest Hemingway
The snows of Kilimanjaro by Ernest Hemingway Audiobook | ISBN-10: 0684804441 | 2006 | English | MP3 (128 kb/s) | 108 mb
Classic, Adventures, Novel
The story centers on the memories of a writer named Harry who is on safari in Africa. He develops an infected wound from a thorn puncture, and lies awaiting his slow death. This loss of physical capability causes him to look inside himselfˇŞat his memories of the past years, and how little he has actually accomplished in his writing. He realizes that although he has seen and experienced many wonderful and astonishing things during his life, he had never made a record of the events; his status as a writer is contradicted by his reluctance to actually write. He also quarrels with the woman with him, blaming her for his living decadently and forgetting his failure to write of what really matters to him, namely his experiences among poor and interesting people, not the predictable upper class crowd he has fallen in with lately. Thus he dies, having lived through so much and yet having lived only for the moment, with no regard to the future. In a dream he sees a plane coming to get him and take him to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Skip to comments.The New Jews: They're Asian Americans.
Posted on 06/09/2012 3:24:32 PM PDT by rhema
Like many colleges and universities, Princeton professes its devotion to institutional equity and diversity. The universitys website claims that the school actively seek[s] students, faculty, and staff of exceptional ability and promise who . . . will bring a diversity of viewpoints and cultures, before explaining that examples of personal characteristics that confer diversity of viewpoint and culture include but are not limited to gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, national origin, etc.
The U.S. Department of Education may beg to differ. Since 2008, according to a spokesman, its Office for Civil Rights has been investigating whether the school discriminates against Asians, on the basis of race or national origin, in its admissions processthat is, whether students of Asian descent are being penalized for their background when applying to the school. Princeton, for its part, said through a spokesman, We treat each application individually and we dont discriminate on the basis of race or national origin. . . . We evaluate applications in a holistic manner, and no particular factor in the admission process is assigned a fixed weight. There is no formula for weighing the various aspects of the application. One could be forgiven for wondering how the claim that the school does not discriminate on the basis of race or national origin does not contradict its mission to actively seek students who bring a diversity of viewpoints and cultures, though. After all, doesnt trying to foster a diverse student body necessitate some form of race-based decision making?
This isnt to single out the Tigers. Indeed, Princeton is far from alone in being accused of anti-Asian bias in admissions. In August of last year, an Indian-American student filed a complaint with the Department of Education against Harvard alleging anti-Asian discrimination in its admissions department. (The student ultimately withdrew the complaint in February 2012.) Michele Hernández, author of A Is for Admissions and former admissions staffer at Dartmouth, recently said that after 10 years of [counseling] and 4 years in Dartmouth admissions, I dont think its intentional, but I think there is discrimination. If you look at the numbers, you can basically see that [if you are applying to many selective colleges] you have to have higher-than-average scores if you are an Asian.
Asian Americans routinely outperform all other groups, including Caucasians, in academic achievement, a pattern that has been observed since at least the mid-1980s. By eighth grade, the percentage of Asian American students scoring in the upper echelons on math exams was 17 points higher than the percentage of white students, reports the Washington Post. When its time to apply for college, the gap continues: In 2010, the last year for which data were available, the average SAT score for Asian Americans was 1636, versus 1580 for Caucasian students, 1369 for Mexicans and Mexican Americans, and 1277 for African Americans.
But as Asian Americans have risen through the academic ranks, some claim that theyve become the new Jewsa group considered to be overrepresented in elite academia.
Data bear this out. A Center for Equal Opportunity study, cited on the Manhattan Institutes website in the wake of the Harvard complaint, found that Asian applicants to the University of Michigan in 2005 had a median SAT score that was 50 points higher than the median score of white students who were accepted, 140 points higher than that of Hispanics and 240 points higher than that of blacks. The center also found that among applicants with a 1240 SAT score and 3.2 grade point average in 2005, the university admitted 10 percent of Asian Americans, 14 percent of whites, 88 percent of Hispanics and 92 percent of blacks. As further evidence, consider that after the state of California abolished racial preferences, the percentage of Asian Americans accepted at Berkeley increased from 34.6 percent in 1997, the last year of legal affirmative action, to 42 percent entering in fall 2006, clear evidence that the group had been unfairly penalized under the previous regime.
Ironically enough, one of the most revealing studies of this phenomenon was conducted by one of Princetons own. In 2009, Thomas Espenshade, a Princeton professor of sociology, co-authored a report that revealed students of Asian descent did indeed face discrimination at colleges and universities beyond the Ivy League. According to Espenshades analysis, an Asian student needs to score 140 points higher than whites on the math and reading portions of the SAT, 270 points higher than Hispanics, and 450 points higher than blacks to have the same chances of admission at the nations top schools. [A]ll other things equal, Espenshade told Inside Higher Ed, Asian-American students are at a disadvantage relative to white students, and at an even bigger disadvantage relative to black and Latino students.
To supporters of affirmative action, the practice has two major benefitsone positive and one punitive. For one, they say that its a necessary corrective to grave historical injustices. Twoand this they dont often say out loudaffirmative action punishes those who are perceived to have benefited from (or even personally perpetrated) the politics of racial supremacy.
But in both caseseven if one accepts those justificationsdiscriminating against Asians is indefensible. Indeed, it can be reasonably argued that Asian Americans have endured more discrimination than American Hispanics, who benefit from affirmative action as it is currently executed. And Asian Americans can hardly be accused of oppressing other racial groups en masse. As S. B. Woo, former lieutenant governor of Delaware and current director of the Asian-American advocacy organization the 80-20 Initiative, says, there is no historical rationale that justifies forcing Asian Americans to bear the burden of preference, more than other Americans. Indeed, given the historical injustices suffered by Americans of Asian descentJapanese internment, the Chinese Exclusion Actin an honest affirmative action regime, they would stand to benefit.
The times may be a changin, though. This fall, the Supreme Court will hear a case brought by a white student who says she was denied admission to the University of Texas on account of her Caucasian background. Consequently, racial preferences in college admissions could be banned altogethera real possibility, given the Courts relatively conservative bent.
But until then, Asian applicants may continue to have to leap a higher bar than others. Unsurprisingly, the Associated Press reported late last year that increasing numbers of Asian applicants are neglecting to identify themselves as suchstudents of mixed descent, for example, fail to mention their Asian heritage at all, checking the box for Caucasian and leaving Asian blank.
Maybe they should check Native American instead.
Of course Asian-Americans are being disriminated against in acadameia along with other venues. How many do you see in government jobs? The reason just might be that they have a work ethic, not an aversion to work ethic that other groups seem to have a genetic disposition towards.
My great, great grandmother was full Cherokee. Mt other GGG was from Denmark. I like to gamble and sunburn easy.
Yeah, 0bummer's incompetent/inept/moronic idiot Sec'y of Energy Steven Chu did a real great job of making that case for all Asian-Americans, didn't he?
The Schools in CA including trade and professional are packed with Asians, mostly from Asia. What better for a University's bottom line since they pay full boat in cash?
Gee, no racism or discrimnation in THOSE numbers huh? Lefty racists have perfectly mimicked Orwell's pigs.
One reason why the left and certain minorities - particularly blacks - despise Asians is because Asians harpoon a major plank of their religion, which claims that non-whites can't make it in America.
Their philosophy is largely based on envy, class warfare and race pimping. Asians throw a stick in their spokes, by proving them wrong.
Probably wishful thinking on your part. Most asians identify themselves as democrats.
One point many seem to forget is that there is no such thing as an "Asian" race, going by the technicality of the definition of the term used in government forms and the like: 'Asian' includes people from China, Japan, Korea, and notably, India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, etc.
The races from all of these nations are not homogeneous: Most Indians fit the definition of 'Caucasian', and are closer to this term both linguistically and genetically, but are legally 'Asian'.
Likewise with the 'West Asians' who are classified as 'White'.
I'm not sure "race" is what's involved here. Identifiably endogamous groups will not only develop an identifiable genetic profile, but will also transmit more uniform cultural norms. "Race" probably doesn't exist scientifically.
The example of the Vietnamese boat people -- arriving here in the 70's with just the clothing they wore and speaking little or no English, and having their kids be the valedictorians twenty years later -- must be especially galling.
Not sure what this has to do with anything - my (completely non-wishful) post was an observation on how leftists and blacks view Asians, not how you claim Asians view themselves.
Where do you find those statistics? Most of the Asians I know are Korean and identify strongly with Republican principals and values. I do not think I have actually met anyone from that community that would confess to voting democrat.
...In terms of partisanship, Asian Americans most identify as Democrats than as Republican, 32% to 14%, respectively. One in five identify themselves as Independents and the largest number of respondents, thirty-five percent, do not identify themselves as Democrat, Republican, or Independent.
These preferences vary among ethnic group: Asian Indian and Japanese Americans most strongly identify as Democrats, and were the strongest supporters of Obama, 52% and 60%, respectively. Vietnamese Americans most strongly identify as Republicans, and were more likely to support McCain than Obama, 51% to 24%. Chinese Americans (70%) are the least likely to identify as either Democrat or Republican, but were more supportive of Obama. Filipino and Korean likely voters favor Obama over McCain.
Overall, 41% of Asian American likely voters supported Obama, 24% supported McCain...
WOW that's interesting. Guess it's maybe the Koreans in my community that go conservative. Comes down to the company we keep i guess.
First problem is the very high concentration of East Asian ancestry folks in Hawaii, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle. That skews the results.
As the economy began its spiral into bankruptcy (the Great Obama Recession) they were right up against the wall economically and voted in desperation for the supposed messiahbama.
Obviously they were wrong.
What I find interesting in that whole mess ~ small business owners wanting socialized medicine ~ is that it was not the broad masses who thought they'd get ahead, but the very core of what ought to be a main constituent of the Republican party ~ to wit, store keepers!
Well, I guess they've figured out that part by now. If not they'll be voting to give ObamaKKKare another try.
So if AA is to remedy past discrimination, how does a WASP raised biracial of slave owning stock but no slave or JimCrow blood get to benefit. Or a blue eyed WASP whose family expelled the Cherokees but pretends to have Cherokee blood get to benefit?
Indians now put down white on college apps.
Asians should have so bad....
"Where do you find those statistics? Most of the Asians I know are Korean and identify strongly with Republican principals and values. I do not think I have actually met anyone from that community that would confess to voting democrat."
There's a number of factors at work. First, the Dems hook-in the Asians by addressing their number one issue, which is immigration (i.e., family unification). They reach out in their language and make darn sure that Asians understand that all Republicans want to seal up the borders, tighter than East Germany. Obviously not true - but the Republicans are clueless enough to let them own that market...and it doesn't hurt that the Dems own the media too.
When it comes to preferences, Asians seem to pretty much put up with it. They don't like to make waves, and like Jews, they can't be held down economically in this country. So if they don't get into Princestone University (PU), they get into Rutgers, clean everyone's clock there, and get great jobs or research assignments with their 4.0s. Exactly the opposite of what happens to blacks that get pushed up to PU because of their skin color - they never have a chance against the students that earned their way there.
Very telling.
Remember some years ago when Ward Connerly led the successful fight to get rid of Affirmative Action in California schools and universities?
The law he got overturned gave Affirmative Action to Blacks and Hispanics....but EXCLUDED Asian-Americans. A lot of people did not realize this
Obviously, Affirmative Action in education is done because Liberals strongly believe that Blacks and Hispanics are unable to meet standard academic qualifications. Why would you exclude Asian-Americans (who also have a history of being abused and victims of racism) if you did not think this way...and thought only in terms of race/ethnicity?
Historically, many schools had quota limits on the number of Jews permitted each year.
That's interesting - from what I've seen, the Filipino population here in Jersey notably swings Republican.
Recently, I had a conversation with a high ranking clergyman. He is American, a graduate of West Point (taught there too), a VietNam vet whose wife if Korean. I have been trying to teach myself the Korean language and asked for his advice. In our talks, he told me that Koreans here in this part of the south were very hard working people, very religious and devout (Christian) and that they were up at 5AM to come to church daily. He told me they were very strong tithers. He implied that I would do well to emulate them (e.g., their work ethic) if I wanted to learn their language which is one of the more difficult to learn. I've met a number of them who personify this ethic. All are very hard working people who put in long hours. Of those I've met, their children are tops in their classes and almost all seek to learn classical music and other true arts. This includes the Viet Namese and Chinese families as well. Interestingly, to me at least, all of the Japanese restaurants here are owned by Koreans. I would like to see some accurate demographic data on these ethnic groups. I have not discussed politics with them ( except one couple from Thailand and they are vociferous Republicans) but I suspect most who vote do tend to vote conservative and I base this on their general outlook on life in America.
>>Im not sure race is whats involved here.
I like to write in "human" when race is requested on a form.
Drives my wife crazy.
No, there's no discrimination.
It's just a fact that if you're Asian, you have to be a straight-A student with genius-level test scores, class president, captain of the football team, and an Eagle Scout to get in.
If you're Black, on the other hand, you can be a congenital idiot, convicted felon, drug abusing flunk-out with abysmal test scores, and you're in.
But, no, there's no discrimination.
Meanwhile, the big thinking heavy hitters on the various admissions committees never pause to think how this set of circumstances - of which everyone with as much as two gray cells to rub together is aware - debases the value of a Black diploma.
But, then, it hardly matters, becuse the same set of biases are evident in hiring and promotion, as well.
I'm going to suspect that the kind of people who put in long hours working and trying to improve themselves are not necessarily going to look favorably upon people who expect they can demand the fruits of Koreans' labor.
Then again, the Koreans in South Korea have their radical Leftists, so who can be sure?
I suspect your suspicions about hard workers not necessarily looking favorably upon their neighbors who are work challenged and who expect to be on the dole are correct.
I suspect also that the Korean "radical Leftists" tend to stay in Korea rather than immigrate to the US, the grand pooh bah of what is wrong in the world and the cause of South Korea's problems or so these "leftists" think. Poor misguided souls.
Having "Eagle Scout" on your academic resume would be an automatic disqualification for any Ivy League slot. The Scouts are considered a homophobic hate group, full of extreme right-wing teabaggers by the admissions staff.
Reminds me when I went to pick up an order at our local sushi place after the Japanese earthquake/tsunami I offered condolences and was told all the staff were Korean.
Can't hold your breakfast pastries, huh?

Flash Suppressor (Revision 253)
Edit Page Last Edit: 3 years 5 months ago
A flash suppressor, also known as a flash guard, flash eliminator, flash hider, or flash cone, is a device attached to the muzzle of a rifle or other gun that reduces the visible signature of the burning gases that exit the muzzle. This reduces the chances that the shooter will be blinded in dark conditions. A common misconception is that the flash suppressor is used to hide the shooter's position. This may be incidental, but is not the purpose of the flash suppressor.

One shows a MacBook Pro running a Core i7-3820QM at 2.7GHz, which achieved a benchmark of 12252—around 17 percent better than a current equivalent Core i7 15-inch or 17-inch MacBook Pro. Plus, there was an iMac model powered by a Core i7-3770 chipset operating at 3.4GHz, which somehow only scored 12183, but that might be something to do with its 4GB of RAM. The only question is whether the results are legitimate, but the numbers certainly don't seem ridiculous. So if you're cash-rich and in the market for a new Apple machine, you might want to wait a month or two and see what emerges from the next Apple event love-fest.

Hi David
Have you ever thoght about merging this plugin with BP Group Hierarchy?
It´ll be the perfect group managing suite to bp :-)
BTW: do you plan to continue developing both plugins and making them full compatible with BP 1.7.xxxx, don´t you? I´m asking because the features present on both plugins are not yet present in BP core and who knows if they will be implemented sometime ;-)
thank you

I went with a friend to Krakow primarily in order to visit Auschwitz (that's another story). However, we found that the city is very well served by little electric buggies which have tourist information on loudspeakers. Our guide also spoke excellent English and she took us all around the historic Jewish Area which was very well preserved and interesting, particularly, of course, the story of the Ghetto and the horrors of the Holocaust. We were very pleasantly surprised by the beautiful square, actually a horse-shoe shape, which is surrounded by large pavement restaurants and cafes. As it was October, there were even blankets waiting on the chairs to cover your legs in the evening. We felt very safe to walk around at night and found all the people charming and helpful. We stayed at the excellent Metropolitan. Couldn't fault it.

is still very sexy even at her age. She got divorced long ago and George is the
only her son. He just turned 18. They are great friends even though many teenagers
at his age have problems with parents. The only thing that bothered him in his
relations with mothers is that she was extremely jealous to his girlfriends. He
couldn�t understand why till one night she came to his bedroom is short robe to
talk about it. As you may see their conversation ended with really wild and messy
Amanda�s sons grew up it was very painful for her to watch them having fun at
parties and clubs and dating young girls. She did her best to stay # 1 for them.
Sons often joked that she�s she only woman in the world they will ever love. Once
they had pretty frank conversation about sex and Amanda said desperately she�s
not able to explain everything they ask her about but she�s able to show! That
was nasty but her sons took her right. It was their first incest experience so
they recorded it on video.
grew up without mother. She died when Helen was a just small kid. Her father Artur
took care of her, protected and cherished her. Sure, for Helen loved him not like
a father but like a man. But she couldn�t confessed herself in it till the day
he kissed her lips while she was sleeping. She woke up and finally realized how
happy she is. She never enjoyed sex with guys from her college as much as she
enjoyed it with Artur. She got her cunt eaten out as never before and then stuffed
with her father�s strong cock.

OK, this is an idea I've had knocking around for a little while. In case you aren't aware of what a roguelike is, it's this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roguelike
But obviously this isn't a turn-based top-down game, so here are the key features (pasted from that page) that I'm thinking of capturing:
* Roguelike games feature randomly generated dungeon levels, which give them more replay value than games in which the levels are the same every time, though many have static levels as well. The randomly generated levels typically include rooms (some of which may be preset or specific, e.g. monster lairs, treasuries) and corridors / tunnels leading from one to another, though more open non-room spaces or other elements, like rivers, may occur.
(So, the rooms and corridors would actually be side-on rooms and landscapes, like Castlevania, Ghouls 'n Ghosts, etc. "Randomly" generated makes it sound crap, but the trick is to work out a process that "grows" the level and then decorates it and populates it with monsters, items, etc. I think I've got a decent set of rules but it'll be interesting to see how well it works)
* (MAYBE THIS ONE) Roguelike games traditionally implement permadeath—death is unrecoverable. Once a character is dead, discounting item-afforded preclusion, the player must start over from the beginning of the game. Most roguelikes provide a "save game" feature, but this is only intended to allow splitting a game across multiple sessions, and the save file will be deleted automatically when the character dies. Players can avoid this by copying the file to another location, but this is considered cheating and often known as "save scumming". Some roguelikes provide a "wizard mode" that lets players explore the dungeon without risk of death. Players may also encounter items during normal gameplay that can prevent death (usually just once).
(This may be too harsh, but one consequence is that there is a lot of tension in the game. To reward the player if they fail, each attempt allows them to learn more about the game, and each attempt should be an interesting and often funny story in itself. It's also important to allow the player to work out how risky a situation is, and then give them a choice whether to get into trouble... most of the time)
* The world of roguelikes is heavily interactive and players can often perform tasks impossible in other games, e.g., digging through walls or lighting fires.
(There is usually a lot of emergent gameplay, i.e. simple things combine to make interesting situations. Another thing that is common is the need for the character to eat, and often make risky choices in order to avoid starving)
My original plot idea was very basic, just a tongue-in-cheek plot to hang the gameplay on:
* Kings and nobles complete with each other to amass artifacts and treasure
* They pay collectors (players) to go out and bring something back - maybe anything (payment dependent on value), something of minimum value, or a specific item.
* This allows the player to return early with a low-value item but risk loss of reputation and low reward
* The patron creates a portal which stays open (i.e. the world beyond persists) until th job is completed or abandoned
* A collector might have a single patron, or play patrons off against one another to drive up prices, especially as their reputation increases
* Things collected visible accrue in the patron's castle
* High-level player might be able to build and furnish their own castle
Of course, it could be more varied, and another idea was that this could really be found by the player to be a distraction from the main plot, e.g. finding a missing friend, or the underlying secret behind this greedy society.
Anyway, there you go! I have more stuff on this, including thoughts on how to great good procedural content involving traditional authored content.

The meaning of employee engagement is ambiguous among both academic researchers and among practitioners who use it in conversations with clients. We show that the term is used at different times to refer to psychological states, traits, and behaviors as well as their antecedents and outcomes. Drawing on diverse relevant literatures, we offer a series of propositions about (a) psychological state engagement; (b) behavioral engagement; and (c) trait engagement. In addition, we offer propositions regarding the effects of job attributes and leadership as main effects on state and behavioral engagement and as moderators of the relationships among the 3 facets of engagement. We conclude with thoughts about the measurement of the 3 facets of engagement and potential antecedents, especially measurement via employee surveys.
