EDICAL JoURN;
Others, even reaching one gram in some cases. Low
increases occur in atrophic cirrhosis, in serious mor-
bid processes of the h'ver and in exhausted hepatic
glands and hepatic insufficiency. The high rates
occur in Hvers stimulated by the violent initial re-
actions of acute diseases and the more durable ones
of hypertrophic and hyperplastic hepatitis.
In acute malarial paroxysms these same phenom-
ena of excitation and of deficit are most manifest.
At the onset of the attack, at the very time that
the diarrhea takes place and the liver prepares its
defensive action, the reaction increases and may at-
tain from seventy-five centigrams to one gram eight
centigrams. At the height of the attack it constantly
diminishes and hardly ever exceeds seven to ten
centigrams. Then the sugar content progressively
returns to normal. A rather curious thing is that the Flonase Ns
preceding glycemia is usually more intense at the
onset of the attack and less during the phase of
full development, but the adrenalin reaction is not
greatly disturbed by these initial variations. These
variations are often, but not always, absolutely pro-
portional with those of the nitrogen coefficient or
that of the alimentary glycemia, because they
are Flonase Generic Cost related to the different functional processes ; in
some the ureogenic, in others amylopexic, in still Generic Flonase Nasal Spray Order Flonase Online
others amyloh'tic.
It is curious to observe with what rapidity, the
attack having ended, the hepatic Cheap Flonase reactions return to
their previous state. These change later on as suc-
cessive attacks occur, following the same plan and
order, then they lose their importance, their regu-
larit}- and distinctiveness. This is because in the ad-
vanced phase of paludism the test is no longer made
on new soil but on one that has been overturned.
The hepatic gland gradually becomes accustomed Flonase Discount to
these multiple irritations and becomes immune to
them. The charts are no longer those of frank
paludism. The progressive changes of the liver suc-
ceed these successive assaults so that the various
tests do not give their former Flonase Rxlist distinct results. Flonase Canada
The liver is unquestionably, of all the abdominal
viscera, the one which gives rise to the most inter-
esting reactions during the evolution of chronic ma-
laria, namely, hypertrophic and nodular hepatitis, re-
sulting from repeated functional excitations, each
one of which adds its quota and leaves its imprint
on the glandular parenchyma. Or there may be an
atrophic hepatitis, the hepatic activity becomes ex-
tinct and the secretions progressively dry up. There-
fore, to these two orders of lesions correspond two
very different functional states which are distinctly
revealed by a chemical analysis of the blood and
urine. In the first are met Flonase Coupons Printable the high nitrogen coef-
ficients, marked glycemic reactions and high per-
centages of urea; in the second, a lowering of the
nitrogen content, a diminution of the glycemia and
blood amylolasis, and the adrenalin test increases the
glycemia Buy Generic Flonase to eighty centigrams to one gram in the
first, while in the second it is hardly twenty-five to
thirty centigrams.
From these functional hepatic disturbances a se-
ries of general and abdominal symptoms result, one
of the most frequent being diarrhea. The diarrhea
of chronic malaria becomes progressively installed, it
then becomes permanent and leads to cachexia. Al-
though its origin may be a superadded dysentery,
awakened and kept up by the malaria, or even a
true malarial inflammatory mucorrheic enteritis, in
the stools of which some observers have found Alternative To Flonase red
blood cells containing the Plasmodium, it is quite as
often due to some morbid change in the liver. It
is no longer an enteritic diarrhea but a dyspeptic one,
in which an excess of bile or hepatic insufficiency
are to be held responsible, Flonase Generic Price and should Flonase Generic Name the enteritic
process develop later, it has none the less been set
up by the dyspeptic state. Thus Flonase Generic Equivalent the variations Purchase Flonase Online in
the hepatic functions during an acute paroxysm of
malaria, in their almost cyclical and rapid succes-
sion, sum up the Flonase Acne changes of these same functions
in the evolution of the malarial liver. They are,
to a certain extent, the imprint that the malarial
process makes on the entire existence of the pa-
tient. In what has been said I have endeavored to
make clear the understanding of the intestinal acci-
dents of paludism in general, and this now brings
up the subject of hepatic dyspepsia.
Some of these Flonase Nasal Spray Generic intestinal reactions might well be
given the name of premonitory diarrheas. Exact
from the clinical viewpoint, in the sense that the
diarrhea announces the near advent of a paroxysm,
the term premonitory is inexact from the standpoint
of physiology, because the diarrheic reaction is not,
in the strict sense, a humoral reaction. It is, in some
cases, the indicative reaction, while other s^'mptoms,
such as lassitude, chilliness and discomfort, pass by
unnoticed. It marks the entrance upon the Flonase 0.05 scene
of the Flonase Alternatives parasite that an examination of the blood

Sydney: Michael Bevan will stay in Australia's World Cup squad despite suffering a groin injury, the Australian Cricket Board (ACB) said on Monday.
National selection panel chairman Trevor Hohns said Bevan, who was injured while batting during Saturday's second triangular series One-day final against England at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), was considered a vital part of the side's World Cup campaign. "Like Michael, we were all relieved to learn that the extent of his injury was not as serious as first thought," Hohns said on Monday.
"Although he will take a few weeks to regain full fitness, the selection panel along with (captain) Ricky Ponting unanimously agreed that he should retain his spot in the World Cup squad. "It goes without saying that Michael is a key component of our World Cup plans, and with the relevant treatment, we are hoping that he will be back sooner rather than later." Bevan's World Cup prospects were given a boost on Sunday after diagnostic scans revealed the injury would only keep him sidelined for two to three weeks.
"Naturally when I first suffered the injury, I feared the worst and thoughts of missing the World Cup went racing through my head," Bevan said. "But the groin felt considerably better by the morning and after having scans and speaking to Trefor James (ACB medical officer), things seemed a lot brighter. "It is obviously a big relief, and it's now up to me to do whatever it takes to get the injury right." The Australian squad leaves for South Africa on Thursday.

Mr. PALMEIRO. Good afternoon, Mr. Chairman and members of the committee. My name is Rafael Palmeiro, and I'm a professional baseball player. I will be brief in my remarks today.
Let me start by telling you this: I have never used steroids, period. I do not know how to say it any more clearly than that. Never. The reference to me in Mr. Canseco's book is absolutely false. I am against the use of steroids. I don't think athletes should use steroids, and I don't think our kids should use them. The point of view is one, unfortunately, that is not shared by our former colleague Jose Canseco. Mr. Canseco is an unashamed advocate for increased steroid use by all athletes.
My parents and I came to the United States after fleeing the Communist tyranny that still is in my homeland of Cuba. We came seeking freedom, knowing that through hard work, discipline and dedication, my family and I could build a bright future in America. Since arriving to this great country, I have tried to live every day in my life in a manner that I hope has typified the very embodiment of the American dream. I have gotten to play for three great organizations, the Chicago Cubs, the Texas Rangers and the Baltimore Orioles, and I have been blessed to do well in a profession I love. That blessing has allowed me to work on projects and with charities in the communities where I live and play.
As much as I have appreciated the accolades that have come with a successful career, I am just as honored to have worked with great organizations like the Make a Wish Foundation, Shoes for Orphans' Souls and the Lena Pope Home of Fort Worth.
The league and the Players Association recently agreed on a steroid policy that I hope will be the first step to eradicating these substances from baseball. Congress should work with the league and the Players Association to make sure that the new policy being put in place achieves the goal of stamping steroids out of the sport. To the degree an individual player can be helpful, perhaps as an advocate to young people about the dangers of steroids, I hope you will call on us. I, for one, am ready to heed the call. Mr. Chairman, I think the task force is a great idea to send the right message to kids about steroids. If it is appropriate, I would like to serve with Mr. Schilling and Mr. Thomas. Thank you.
Chairman TOM DAVIS. Thank you very much, Mr. Palmeiro.

|[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-5488) Add remaining JDBC 4.1 bits which did not appear in the Java 7 javadoc.
|Tue, 15 Nov 2011 15:18:51 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5488?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13150547#comment-13150547 ] Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-5488: -------------------------------------- Thanks to Bryan and Knut for helping me sort out what JDBC level our Java 6 drivers should report. Except for the very highest JDBC level we support, all of our JDBC driver implementations contain methods which were introduced by higher levels of the spec. So for instance... 1) Our JSR 169 implementation contains lots of methods which were introduced in JDBC 2.0 and 3.0. 2) Our JDBC 3.0 implementation contains some methods which were introduced by JDBC 4.0. Nevertheless, those implementations don't claim to fully implement the higher JDBC rev levels from which they borrow methods. JDBC 4.1 is an interesting special case. All other JDBC levels introduced data types which did not appear in their predecessors. For this reason... 1') Our JSR 169 implementation doesn't contain an implementation of the java.sql.ParameterMetaData type which was introduced in JDBC 3.0. A JDBC implementation which runs on small devices cannot provide an implementation of ParameterMetaData and so can not claim to implement JDBC 3.0. 2') Our JDBC 3.0 implementation doesn't contain methods which mention java.sql.SQLXML, a type which was introduced by JDBC 4.0. A JDBC implementation which runs on Java 5 cannot contain methods which mention SQLXML and so can not claim to implement JDBC 4.0. JDBC 4.1 is the first rev of JDBC which does not mention any types which were not available to its predecessor. It is therefore the first rev of JDBC which could be implemented to run on a lower rev level of the JVM. So the short answer to Bryan's question about precedents is: No, there is no precedent. The slightly longer answer to Bryan's question is: ...perhaps because the situation is impossible for previous JDBC rev levels.

text: I'm working on a corner lot, Power raking. Everyone had their garbage at the end of their driveways in situations like that I put the bags of grass with the regular garbage. So I had about 10 bags of grass on the curb already and was carrying more from the back the garbage truck passed and picked up what was there. So as I'm putting more bags at the end of the driveway a gabage man starts yelling from the other end of the cul du sac. I wasn't sure he was yelling at me and turned to get more bags a couple times. When the truck gets closer he's still yelling, saying that I'm breaking the law, he can get me fined and so on. I yelled back at him that I'll put garbage wherever I want and I've never heard such laws. It was pretty intense, then his supervisor pulls up while I'm still arguing with this twit. He says now your going to get fined and he said, I took bags from here but I'm not taking anymore. (it's not my house and I wasn't asking him to take more bags as they had already passed, they were working their way around a cul du sac, I was just puttin gbags at the end of the curb) I start talking to the stupidvisor and he trys questioning me, whats my name, do I own this company. Then I got rude to and told him its none of his business, that I will never take clippings to the dump. He actually told me he was watching another LCO a few blocks away and he's taking his clippings. I pulled out my voice recorder and told him I was recarding this conversation (even though my batteries had died: I didn't know that at the time) and told him I would be filing a complaint agaisnt him. The I told him the garbage man stole my property. I had a brand new role of gabage bags at the bottom of my pail, which was sitting upright at the back of my truck halfway up the driveway. I only had it partially full and was going to take it to the next job to fill it up there. He must have walked up the drive way pulled out the nearly empty bag then grabbed my role of new bags. I say tihs because everyone elses garbage cans when emptied were lying on there side at the end of the drive way while mine was still standing upright at the back of my truck halfway up the driveway AND they obviously had a beef with LCO's. They told me several times (this took about 15 minutes) Ppl arent allowed to have more than 8 bags. lco's have to take away all clippings. i can be fined and we must take away the clippings. They tried to represent laws that dont exist the idiot gives me a tag that they put on garbage when they don't take it away as proof. I read it in front of him and it didn't say anything about what we were talking about, lol. he told me to phone them and that he was on the phone with his boss blah blah. The supervisor gave me a roll of cheap bags that dont fit my garbage cans to replace what was stolen but i'm so choked I'm putting my thoughts on paper and am contemplating a police report. I already filed a complant with the city who told me there were no such laws. The background of this is that recently a company called BFI has contracted out garbage pick up it used to be city workers that did it and I guess they dont like LCO's in the spring clean up time and make up their own BS laws and try to intimidate us.

Unskilled and unaware of it?
In a widely cited, and provocatively titled, article in 1999, now approaching 1,400 citations on scholar google, Kruger and Dunning seemed to provide evidence that "difficulties in recognizing one's own incompetence lead to inflated self-assessments". In other words, the less skilled (that's what the authors really meant to say, alas a provocative title tends to sell) were argued, on average, to be more unaware of the absolute and relative quality of their performance. In fact, the less people were skilled the more they seemed "miscalibrated".
In an earlier article, Krajc and yours truly have provided in response a simple model and some exploratory computational exercises that suggested that the less skilled may simply face a more complicated signal extraction problem. Our argument hinged on the distribution of skills in the environments that were typically studied being highly asymmetric, often resembling J – shaped distributions. Simply put, it is easy for the A++ student to figure out where s/he stands but much more difficult for those ranked towards the bottom of the class.
In an article just published, Ryvkin, Krajc and yours truly provide evidence in favor of a conjecture formulated in the earlier article: that with fairly little feedback self-assessment biases can be overcome. There was certainly a distinct literature on calibration that suggested that much (e.g., Juslin, Winman, & Olsson 2000 or Koehler 1996 – see here and here). There was, however, also some evidence that suggested otherwise (reviewed in our just published article.)
We hence set out to study whether, and to what extent, the difficulties of the less skilled in recognizing their own incompetence (largely, overconfidence) can be reduced by feedback. We report the results of two studies, one in a natural setting of a two-months graduate orientation and screening semester (and there particularly the micro-economics course by instructors not part of the research team), and another in the same environment but using tasks and stimuli materials that were better under our control. We document initially the same strong miscalibration that Kruger and Dunning also documented but also show that over the course of the two months this miscalibration almost completely disappears with the notable exception of those at the very bottom of the skills distribution and there only for their relative self-assessment which might provide support for the conjecture of Krajc & Ortmann (JoEP 2008; for reference see above) or self-image (e.g., Koeszegi 2006).
So, are the less skilled doomed to be unaware? It seems, no, not really. Learning goes a long way. Which should make us happy. But, of course, it all depends (on the strength and type of feedback, for example.)

I ought to agree with Kruger and Dunning's statement. As long as the unskilled are unaware of their lack of skills and qualities they will not try to obtain the necessary skills. Not everybody may gasp the concept that the reason they are jobless or not being promoted is because they do not possess of the skills required. In short, their lack of skills and vision, prohibit them from seeing their own lack of skills.
Yes, there is some people that never learn from failure. But many do. Eventually.
I agree. Not everyone knows why they are unskilled and jobless. And the blame can't be entirely theirs. Sometimes it can be on their upbringing or background and due to that fact it can impact their way of thinking only inside the box. Due the Economy not everyone can afford an education and this should be better seen to in that everyone should have an education to further more in life.
People without the knowledge and skills, or a lack there of, might not know which skills to improve and how they should be improved. This could also be caused by a lack of education, thus people should start at educational level by working on the necessary skills. With better education and skills development, the level of jobless people might go down.
Certain skills and abilities come naturally to some individuals where as others need to be taught. It has become increasingly more important to develop skills such as interpersonal skills. Knowing the theory of a business but not being able to interact effectively with the people in it is a major hindrance. Many people don't realize their inability to perform a task due to the fact that they have never been taught the right way or even any way. The phrase ignorance is bliss may be true for the person who is ignorant but can cause much frustration for those working with him/her and also as stated by Ansuri be the reason why the person is jobless or not being promoted.
I agree with Tanja that people should already at educational level be taught the necessary skills in order to become an effective employee and be assessed regularly to see in which areas they are lacking so that they can become aware and improve.
I have to agree with Kruger and Dunning's statement as it would seem difficult to recognize and maybe try to improve one's incompetence when they are not even aware of it. Perhaps this issue may go back to high school institutions which just put kids out without a proper briefing on how life works. Perhaps if the these kids were educated on the skills required for the career path they intend to follow they would not make the mistake of acquiring the wrong skills and thinking they were on the path to success. Regardless it should not be an excuse to stay in ignorance, people should always seek professional advise on these things.
I wonder whether you even read what I wrote.
In any case, the point is that we provide evidence under fairly controlled conditions that most people learn quickly to calibrate properly. I.e., that they become aware of their lack of their skill if the signal extraction problem is not too difficult.
This article eventually boils down to education and vision. The more you are educated, the more sharper you become and the more knowledge you attain the better skilled a person will be. People who are skilled tend to know what weaknesses they have and use the opportunity to attain more knowledge in it to sharpen their intelligence. In some way people who are unskilled need help in identifying core skill that they may be able to master in when that happens, poverty decrease and unemployment increases.
correction, poverty decreases and unemployment decreases.
Perhaps the most important realization that an individual can make in their quest for personal growth is that there is no single formula that defines the path to personal success. As human we have different vision and goals.ost of the times our background is what is likely to make us realise our skills and capabilities. for example on might have a rich family and never worry about what they personally want to do because they know they have what they need for everyday survival as parents provide and some day they will inherit what their parents worked for. This leaves the young generation unaware of their skills however working on the opportunities their parents worked on. on the other hand coming from a poor background, children strive to work hard and be independent so that they can change the situations at their homes. Parents do not choose for them which field to go into however their free to make their own choices and advance on their skills. My conclusion is that individuals sometimes do not set their own vision and goals but are set by parents. sometimes children may not like the particular field parents choose for them which will make them unproductive. And when laziness kicks in its the end of opportunities.
Very interesting article to read.
In all essence, when one thinks about it, it is relatively obvious that the less knowledge one has about something the less responsive they would be towards the situation; to what extent would there be no response is the concern and I appreciate the study that was done to figure this out.
This article has definitely enlightened me to idiocy of ignorance. When one does not know which skills they have or lack, it cannot be expected from them to even try improve them.
Good read.
Sometimes people may seem as though they are unaware of the skills which they lack, however, they could just be comfortable with where they are in their lives. Certain people aim to achieve that which they feel is "good enough" and in turn do not attain new skills. This results in people being unskilled in several fields as the years progress.
Being unskilled and unaware of it is a dangerous thing as it prevents growth.
The blog post has a lot of proof and references to back the statement. Although I agree to some extent, it is a bold generalization to make. I feel majority people who are unskilled do realise it, but are ignorant to the fact,but would try to become skilled if the right opportunities came their way. Thanks for the interesting blog
The article contains a lot of proof and references to back the statement. Although I agree to some extent, it is a bold statement to make. I'm sure many people realise that they are unskilled, i just think many are ignorant towards facing the truth, and would try and obtain the necessary skills if the opportunities came along. thanks for the interesting article.
The article is based on one side and all it's sources support it based on the side that people who are unskilled are unaware of it. on the point that states :it is easy for the A++ student to figure out where s/he stands but much more difficult for those ranked towards the bottom of the class. this is pure not true in my believe because the are different ways to measure skills but according to this article it is only taken academically. As Morongwa Tshetlo as commented "Sometimes people may seem as though they are unaware of the skills which they lack, however, they could just be comfortable with where they are in their lives" not what is concerted "good" in the environment that they live in.
Very good blog. The conclusion only supports the idea that education and knowledge is vital; a person cannot realize their full potential in a task without the knowledge to do so. I believe that an unskilled person will remain blinded that he/she is unskillful until someone gives them the feedback they need to realize that they are unskillful, however i believe that everyone is skillful but don't always see it and that they only need the knowledge to become more skillful. Thank you.
The relation between those who are unskilled and not being able to assess their potential truly is evident. I think the study is very true and applicable to all unskilled people. It is obvious that an unskilled person would not be able to rank him or herself in relation to their competence in the industry ,as you remarked Marelize. Feedback should thus be noted as very important in a business.
Skilled labour is a vital part of certain markets and is the driving force to many production companies etc. The unskilled labourer and their unawareness thereof could be detrimental to the successful daily operations of a business and so forth. Moreover, their incompetence to acquire certain skills essential to fulfill a particular job may make it difficult for the labourers to secure a job thus it only seems fitting that they partake in the necessary training and courses essential to the securing of a job.
When we fail to recognize and acknowledge our shortcomings,we tend to overstate the abilities and skills we possess and Kruger and Dunning make a valid point on that notion but this does not apply to everyone because other people do recognize their failures and work on improving that as Derek rightfully pointed that.I believe that this problem of not recognising our failures can be overcome by simply empowering ourselves with the necessary skills required in our field of work and studies..Furthermore,I believe that self introspection will go a long way in eliminating this problem.As stated above constructive feedback is also a strong tool that can be used to alleviate this incompetence as people will be able to go back on their failures and take the feedback given and look on the positive aspects.With that being said,I believe there is gaps in the blog as various factors contributing to not being able to recognize failures such as disadvantaged backgrounds and not having means financially to empower oneself.
This post is very interesting. I agree with it, although I think it maybe a generalization. Sometimes, especially if the people who are unskilled are experienced, they are blinded by their own skill level. Thus nothing for them to measure it against. In creating awareness of low skill levels one should be careful not to undermine self-confidence totally as this could be detrimental to productivity.
This post is interesting in a way that it opened my eyes to see this in a different way. My previous thought on this matter was that those who are unskilled were aware of the fact that they are unskilled but just knew that they did not have the resources to improve their performance capabilities therefore making them not do anything about. I now come to think that perhaps they feel as if they doing the most they can and that they cant get any better, which is incorrect. There are ways to improve their situations but perhaps they are just not aware of such.
This is an interesting read, an eye opener… most of the unskilled lack confidence in themselves as they feel they don't have what it takes (comparing themselves to the skilled), this is where it all begins, there is a saying "the only disability in life is a bad attitude", if you don't believe you can then you never will. Recognize where you lack and work on improving it until you get to where you need to be.
Looking at the working and business environment, people tend to realize what they are up against. I say thank you to the working place development skills that some manager provide for their employees to develop their working skills. Although some people may need to be given a push to develop their skills but as Andreas Ortmann quoted that "difficulties in recognizing one's own incompetence lead to inflated self-assessments". What do people decide to do when they realize that they are incompetent, what is the personal step that they decide to take in order to remove themselves from their comfort zone. Some people may decide to do nothing after receiving feedback from self assessment, question is why? while some will be motivated enough to react on that little feedback they receive, question is what motivates them? Our economy depends on our competency in order to grow and do things better in this world.
This blog gives insight as to why people in their current jobs are struggling to keep abreast with the forever changing business world. The business world is complex and it is imperative that current employees' are aware of any change that may, directly or indirectly affect the current business that they are working at. To continue excelling as an employer (and points which have been mentioned above), one must identify the skills need to handle their work load. By acquiring these skills, employees should be able to handle their work load and have more confidence in their ability to achieve the business's goals and objectives.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
We're a 15-month old DE LLC. My co-founder and I are the only members/managers of the LLC (we funded it). Never memorialized our structure/arrangement, so fair to say we own 50% each of the LLC outright. Neither one of us made an 83(b) election. Biz has done well but no revenues or other clear valuation makers yet.
We're now discussing seed financing and investors want us to convert to C-corp. They also want to restrict majority of our ownership to time-based vesting.
How should we structure+sequence (i) conversion, (ii) putting vesting on founder shares, (iii) 83(b) election, (iv) creating option pool for future emplys, and (v) bringing in new money/investors, so as to minimize/eliminate out-of-pocket taxes for the founders (also audit risk) due to this conversion & related steps?
You need an accountant or a tax lawyer for sure. After getting advice from them, a corporate lawyer would be able to do the work for you. Or you can hire a corporate lawyer and ask that they work with an accountant or tax lawyer for you.

This is a complicated question. As you must already be aware, the 83(b) election must be made within 30 days of the stock purchase date. Whatever you do, you want to make sure you do not miss the window for making that election. You have a few options on the conversion, but by far the most common choice would be to create a Delaware C-Corp and merge the LLC into the Delaware C-Corp. To structure the transaction to avoid tax, there must be a pro-rata distribution of C-Corp shares to the founders in proportion to your LLC capital account ownership (50/50). Founder shares could vest over 3 to 4 years to defer income.
In order to generate funding dollars you have to choose your poison. If traditional (and cheap) debt funding will not be sufficient, you will have to go with relatively more expensive equity and Private Equity firms and Venture Capital firms exact a heavy toll. You can create an employee stock option plan contemporaneously with these other steps, but that is a lot to tackle all at once.Ask a similar question

Counter-attack opens in Syria
The Syrian army is reported to have launched a threatened counter-offensive against rebel fighters in the Syrian commercial centre of Aleppo.
The reinforcements, which have been massing over the past few days, "have moved on the (south-west) Salaheddin district, where the largest number of rebel fighters are based," the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
"The fiercest clashes of the uprising are taking place in several neighbourhoods of the city," the head of the British-based watchdog, Rami Abdel Rahman, told AFP.
"You can say that the fightback has begun."
The United Nations, along with the US, Britain, France and Turkey, fears for the safety of civilians in the city.
Government forces reportedly have rebels in Aleppo surrounded, with thousands of troops, tanks, and helicopter gunships.
One pro-government newspaper says troops are preparing for the "mother of all battles".
Fear for civilians
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay, has urged rebels in the city, and the government forces surrounding them, to spare civilians.
"I have been receiving as yet unconfirmed reports of atrocities, including extra-judicial killings and shootings of civilians by snipers, that took place during the recent fighting in various suburbs of Damascus," she said in a statement.
"It goes without saying that the increasing use of heavy weapons, tanks, attack helicopters and - reportedly - even jet fighters in urban areas has already caused many civilian casualties and is putting many more at grave risk.
"All this, taken along with the reported build-up of forces in and around Aleppo, bodes ill for the people of that city."
Her concerns have been echoed by the US State Department, which fears forces loyal to Mr Assad are preparing to carry out a "massacre".
Audio: Fears for safety of civilians in Aleppo (AM)
The department says there are credible reports of tank columns moving on Aleppo, along with air strikes by helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.
With the build-up of heavy weapons around Aleppo, Assad is preparing to carry out a fresh slaughter of his own people.
French foreign ministry spokesman Bernard Valero
France also fears Mr Assad is preparing to carry out a "slaughter" in Aleppo.
"With the build-up of heavy weapons around Aleppo, Assad is preparing to carry out a fresh slaughter of his own people," foreign ministry spokesman Bernard Valero said.
Mr Valero said France shared US concerns over the rapidly deteriorating situation in Aleppo and called on Mr Assad to end the violence and step down.
"Our message is that Assad must go," he said.
'Death is everywhere'
The battle for Aleppo, a major power centre that is home to 2.5 million people, is being seen as a potential turning point in the 16-month uprising against Mr Assad.
Activist Dema al Attar, who is in Aleppo, says residents are desperate.
"We are needing help. We are needing support. We are needing somebody to protect us from their invasion," she said.
"People is afraid and worried and blood is everywhere. Death is everywhere."
But thanks to a deadlock at the United Nations, no one is coming to help.
Neighbouring Turkey has called for international steps to deal with the military build-up in Aleppo.
And Britain has warned a Syrian regime attack on Aleppo would be unacceptable and could lead to huge loss of civilian life and a humanitarian disaster.
Prime minister David Cameron says he is concerned the Assad regime is set to carry out some "some truly appalling acts around and in the city of Aleppo".
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has begun evacuating some expatriate aid workers from Syria due to the worsening situation.
Transition talks
Even as the world braces for another bloodbath, there has been more speculation about a possible transition if the Assad regime crumbles.
Opposition groups are meeting to discuss a possible transition government.
One name mentioned prominently is Manaf Tlass, a former top ranking Sunni general who defected earlier this month.
Some see his close connection to the regime as a possible advantage; others as a detriment.
It is far from clear the if opposition groups talking about the transition represent the rebel fighters on the front lines.

Sales of the Company's speech generating devices decreased 22% to $20.9 million, and sales of its special education software declined 48% to $3.0 million from the prior year. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 declined 26% to $16.7 million, compared to $22.6 million in the fourth quarter of the prior year. The Company's gross margin for the fourth quarter was essentially flat at 70.1%, compared to the prior year's comparable quarter. Operating expenses, excluding impairment charges, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 decreased 5% to $16.1 million, compared to $16.9 million in the prior year.

SMT RSB Arya Vidya Mandir (Juhu) registered a 2-0 win over Arya Vidya Mandir (Bandra) to enter the quarter-finals of the Mumbai Schools Sports Association (MSSA) boys U-16 Division III at Azad Maidan yesterday.
After a goalless first half, the Juhu outfit's Ishan Vijay opened the scoring via a solo effort in the 38th minute. The Bandra school's strikers tried hard to restore parity, but were unable to break down the Juhu school's defence.

The RSB AVM boys effectively killed off that match in the 42nd minute when midfielder Atharva Wagle tapped in the ball to double their lead. In the quarter-final, the Juhu school will take on St Paul's School (Dadar) tomorrow.
"Last year, we had lost in the quarter-final. But this year our team is a much-balanced side," said 15-year-old Ishan.
Meanwhile, Atharva wants his team to earn a promotion to Division II. "Our school team was promoted to Division III in 2012. It is my wish that we help our team earn promotion to Division II before passing out of school," said Atharva.

All Product Details
This is a portrait painted in broad strokes and fine details. We see how Roosevelt's restless energy, fierce intellect, personal magnetism, and ability to project effortless grace permitted him to master countless challenges throughout his life. Smith recounts FDR's battles with polio and physical disability, and how these experiences helped forge the resolve that FDR used to surmount the economic turmoil of the Great Depression and the wartime threat of totalitarianism. Here also is FDR's private life depicted with unprecedented candor and nuance, with close attention paid to the four women who molded his personality and helped to inform his worldview: His mother, Sara Delano Roosevelt, formidable yet ever supportive and tender; his wife, Eleanor, whose counsel and affection were instrumental to FDR's public and individual achievements; Lucy Mercer, the great romantic love of FDR's life; and Missy LeHand, FDR's longtime secretary, companion, and confidante, whose adoration of her boss was practically limitless.
Smith also tackles head-on and in-depth the numerous failures and miscues of Roosevelt's public career, including his disastrous attempt to reconstruct the Judiciary; the shameful internment of Japanese-Americans; and Roosevelt's occasionally self-defeating Executive overreach. Additionally, Smith offers a sensitive and balanced assessment of Roosevelt's response to the Holocaust, noting its breakthroughs and shortcomings.
Summing up Roosevelt's legacy, Jean Smith declares that FDR, more than any other individual, changed the relationship between the American people and their government. It was Roosevelt who revolutionized the art of campaigning and used the burgeoning mass media to garner public support and allay fears. But more important, Smith gives us the clearest picture yet of how this quintessential Knickerbocker aristocrat, a man who never had to depend on a paycheck, became the common mans president. The result is a powerful account that adds fresh perspectives and draws profound conclusions about a man whose story is widely known but far less well understood. Written for the general reader and scholars alike, FDR is a stunning biography in every way worthy of its subject.

About Me
meet new friends
hey i am french, working as a french teacher in Athens. i am patient, kind; open-minded and i like talking.
I usually provide my guests with some coffee, offer them a free tour of the city, show them interesting spots for wonderful pictures and try to get them into the local culture through markets or local excellent restaurants. I also sometimes cook for them. BUT recently i noticed some couchsurfers take it for granted, sometimes complain about the walking and most of the time forget to pronounce a simple word ''THANK YOU''. Just to remind that behind, a host makes effort to give unforgettable memories out of his personal time. It is an act of generosity, sharing, humanity. Not just a place to leave your bag and have a bed for free... be thankful
Also, if you plan to leave in middle of the night to catch a bus, be independent. I am tired to cross the city by foot at 4am... ☺
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
met really nice and kind people for a drink and during monthly couchsurfing meetings in Bulgaria, Slovakia and Greece.
i love travelling, talking with someone while drinking tea, watching tv, internet and driving.I m really interested in sightseeing, nightlife, food
i also love walking and explore :D

Diabetic Foot Care, Six Tips For Healthy Feet And Skin
Failing to do so can result in a variety of serious foot problems, and in some cases the problems can be so bad that amputation may occur.
Just following some very simple foot care tips every single day can help you make sure that you keep your diabetic feet in the best shape possible.
Diabetic Foot Care Tip #1 - Keep Sugar Under Control - One very important of taking care of your feet is to keep your sugar under control.
Always make sure that you take your medicine for diabetes as directed. Also be sure that you make healthy food choices that keep your sugar low as well.
Checking your sugar each day can help you keep it under control, which will help in your foot care as well.
Tip #2 - Wash Feet Thoroughly Daily - Every single day you need to make sure that you wash your feet thoroughly.
Be sure that you avoid using water that is too warm for your feet, so make sure that you test the temperature of the water before you use it. Using water that is too hot will dry your feet and may even result in burns.
Diabetic Foot Care Tip #3 - Check Feet Daily - Many people do not have great feeling in their feet when they have diabetes. For this reason, it is important that you check out your feet every day.
Be sure that there are not cuts, bruises, blisters, or sores that are developing on your feet. If there are any cuts or sores, you may want to see your doctor.
Tip #4 - Moisturize - Another important part of foot care for those with diabetes is moisturizing. Find a good moisturizer that will keep your feet from getting dry and irritated. When feet get dry, they are prone to cracking and bleeding, so you want to keep them moisturized.
Diabetic Foot Care Tip #5 - Protect Feet with Proper Footwear - Wearing footwear, and the proper footwear is very important. You need to avoid going around barefoot, since you may injure your feet this way.
Get shoes that fit you as they should, and wear socks inside that will not slip and slide and start causing any blisters on your feet. Make sure that there are no insects or foreign objects in your shoes before you put them on as well.
Diabetic Foot Care Tip #6 - Get Active - Another thing that you can do daily to take care of your feet is to get more active. Simply walking, biking, or even swimming can greatly improve your circulation, which will in turn help you take care of your feet.
It is important that you avoid doing any activities that could put unneeded pressure on your feet though, such as running or jumping on a trampoline.
These are just a few tips that can help you take the best care of your feet each and every day. Start using these foot care tips and your feet will thank you for it.

Central to all of our programmes are experiences that have come to be termed "rites of passage." Through this context we harness the integral goodwill of local adult men by providing them with a powerful training that develops mentoring skills, emotional intelligence and enhances authenticity and confidence. This in turn empowers these men to provide a rites of passage training and ongoing mentorship to the young men of their community.
The mentors hail from very varied walks of life and currently include local businessmen, tradesmen, film makers, actors and even Chief Executive of a large public company. They act as role models for local young men who are experiencing difficult life situations and provide them with acknowledgement, challenge and a whole range of other coaching and support, both personal and practical, to enable them to turn their lives around.
By bringing generations of men together to collaborate in a meaningful and common purpose, abandofbrothers acts as a catalyst for creating social capital at a local level.
We work in partnership with community leaders, local authorities, educationalists, health professionals and all service providers who are seeking an effective way to engage and marshal the energy of male youth.

Mentee, George Ross tells his story to the Easbourne HeraldThe Eastbourne Herald (in fact the writer was abob's Patrick McCurry) charts the trajectory of George Ross, 20, who was convicted for robbery after the death of his father, and the support that abob have given him in terms of different choices in his life.

The Problem
Men account for 8 out of 10 people cautioned by the police, and nearly 9 out of 10 people found guilty for indictable offences are men. Men are responsible for 97% of burglary and 92% of violence against the person.
The Causes
We live in a society largely stalled at adolescence. Many adult men seem to relish and prolong adolescence for decades. However tempting it may be to blame and punish disaffected youth, a range of adolescent psychopathologies are all too easy to identify in many adult men across the social spectrum.
Our Solution
How might your life have been different if, when you were a young man uncertain about something you could not begin to explain, or overwhelmed by the power of your own emotion, that there had been older men who would acknowledge your anger and confusion without advice or judgment?
Our Programmes
a Band of Brothers offers a range of programmes that provides training to would be mentors as well as mentees. Information on additional courses will follow shortly.
- Reoffending down by 80%
- In employment 80%
- Worthwhile 100%
What we do gets results
Changing the narrative of someone's life is not an easy thing for the state to do.
Our narratives are formed and developed in organic ways throughout our lives. The training & mentoring we offer has been recognised and accredited by the University of Brighton as a process that is especially effective at helping these young men rewrite the narrative of their lives.54 young men have graduated from six programmes run to date with another 13 from Eastbourne to graduate later this year.
The results are remarkable, with an 80% drop in offending rates by those men and as many as 80% of them finding employment or going into further education. Additionally some of the young men have gone on to volunteer on community projects overseas with Raleigh and, more locally, with the Princes Trust. Additionally, seven of the young men have now stepped up more than once to staff training weekends for both the adult mentors and their own peers.
It is incredibly heart-warming to see how many of our recent applications and self-referrals have come from the personal recommendation of our graduates. For us, this is the very essence of community building.
I also recommended A Band of Brothers to my younger brother and, 2 years on, he's just completed his training with them as well. It's great to know there's a project out there for men of all different ages and that me and my brother can stay involved for as long as we wantTony
I have also staffed four weekend trainings with A Band of Brothers and it's been really satisfying putting older men through their paces so that they can become great mentors for more young men like me.Lucas
I am now nine months into my three year apprenticeship and on track to becoming a fully fledged technician. I start work at 8.30am and finish at 5.30pm. It's my dream job and I feel so lucky to be doing something that I'm genuinely passionate about.Bilal
Abob CEO, Nathan Roberts in the Guardian on the prison crisis.
The Guardian's 'Comment is Free' section invited Abob's CEO, Nathan Roberts, to write about why the prison crisis is happening. Nathan explains: "Young men don't mature psychologically until their mid-20s. Condemning so many to the toxic environment of our jails is a recipe for re-offending and suicide" in a very strong piece.

We are working towards a society where young men and their families are supported through the difficult transition into manhood.

Last February, Michelle Obama and comedian Jimmy Fallon teamed up in a masterpiece skit called "The Evolution of Mom Dancing." It was one of the most viral clips of 2013.
Taking inspiration from the success of the performance with the First Lady, and to honor Father's Day which is just around the corner, Fallon decided to do "The Evolution of Dad Dancing" this year.
The Tonight Show host chose New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie as his partner in crime and together they tried to solve the mysteries of awkward "dad dance moves."
One thing is for sure: You'll definitely appreciate your father's talents after watching Christie's performance.
The Republican leader made his first appearance on Fallon's late-night show since the "Bridgegate" controversy six months ago.
ALSO WATCH: "Low Rent Character Bruce Springsteen" Slammed For Bridgegate Jimmy Fallon Parody And It Was Not By Chris Christie
Fallon had earlier in January joked about Christie on television when Bruce Springsteen dropped by on his show.
Both of them performed a parody of the Chris Christie saga – a song titled "Gov. Chris Christie Traffic Jam" that narrated, through its lyrics, the entire controversy of the George Washington bridge lane closures.
Recommended: #ChrisChristieMovies Brings Out The Creative Side Of Twitter Users
Fallon also added a Bridgegate climax to the dad dance routine with Christie. Check out how the New Jersey governor reacts to it in the video above.
