Why a ban on Qatar may not be in the interest of the countries joining forces against them
While the announcement that several Middle Eastern counties including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain and Yemen were outright banning all relations with Qatar, the fact that they actually did it has had reverberations across the globe. Saudi Arabia declared a complete ban on all air, sea and land routes into and out of Qatar while UAE and Bahrain demanded the expulsion of Qatari diplomats from their countries. At last count, Libya and Maldives had joined the growing chorus against Qatar. Qatar is a tiny emirate jutting out as a peninsula from Saudi Arabia towards Iran. While it is a member of the international oil supplying nation group Organisation ...Read Full Post
Dictators like Rodrigo Duterte need to be careful when they "joke" about using rape as a weapon
The world works in strange ways and the more things change, the more they stay the same. After decades, nay centuries of conflict, it seems the world had finally turned the corner in the 90s. Yes, there was a lot still to be done, but we seemed to be moving in the right direction. The cold war had ended, the European Union (EU) took concrete shape, and globalisation was taking root all over. Free trade and the communication revolution were turning the world into a global village. Perhaps for the first time in human history, democracy and human rights were regarded as supreme and inviolable in ...Read Full Post
Why do students in American high schools resort to humiliating Muslims and people who aren't white?
When the student body president of a Northern California high school won his campaign after posting an Islamophobic joke, I was not surprised. It is part and parcel of American high schools to reward students for racism, particularly when the school administration isn't interested in protecting vulnerable students for the sake of 'keeping the peace'. By overlooking racist and toxic behaviour, schools inevitably normalise racism, misogyny, and heterosexism, all of which lend to bullying and cheapen the lives of many young people at these schools. And it's not only the oppressed or the so-called victim who is negatively affected by this situation, but the oppressor as ...Read Full Post
Trump may be doing the right thing siding by Saudi instead of Iran
Political pundits around the world are trying to analyse the impact of President Donald Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia and his speech to the leaders of some 50 Muslim countries in Riyadh. Some are saying that it is full of contradictions as compared to his pre-election rhetoric against Muslims. Others say that his clear tilt towards Sunni's and his siding with the Saudis on their stand vis à vis Iran is illogical and counter-productive to the USA's fight against ISIS. On one hand, the fountainhead of the theological underpinnings of ISIS is the Saudi Arabian sponsored Wahabi/Takfiri ideology and its main support comes from ...Read Full Post
In Pakistan, tolerant Islamic voices are being silenced
Last week, only three days after a suicide bomb went off in Lahore, an Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) supporter struck a crowd of Sufi dancers celebrating in the great Pakistani shrine of Sehwan Sharif. The attack, which killed almost 90, showed the ability of radical Islamists to silence moderate and tolerant voices in the Islamic world. The attack also alarmingly demonstrated the ever-wider reach of the ISIS and the ease with which it can now strike within Pakistan. ISIS now appears to equal the Taliban as a serious threat to this nuclear-armed country. The suicide bombing of the ...Read Full Post
Russia will never sabotage its alliance with Iran for Donald Trump
As I write these lines, Washington is abuzz with the news of Donald Trump's top security advisor, Michael Flynn's resignation. The White House is trying to clean up the mess Flynn's rather over-zealously erratic act created, ending up in critics looking at the election victory in a whole new light. Ironically, Trump saw in Flynn the capability to penetrate the Russian iron curtain by virtue of his connections with Moscow. Ironically also, it was Flynn who had put Iran on an unexplained and unelaborated 'notice' early February – an ill-conceived, rhetoric ridden, flash in the pan type of a half-step that really just reiterated Washington's unsavoury ...Read Full Post
Five non-fiction books of 2016 you should definitely read!
The past year was encapsulated with great works of literature – especially when it came to non-fiction. The following five books delved deep into relevant issues in today's world. 1. The Return by Hisham Matar It's a searing and poignant book that deals with the abduction of Matar's father, Jaballa Matar, in Libya.Photo: Goodreads. Hisham Matar's memoir, The Return, a tear-soaked love letter to his father, towered over all other non-fiction books written last year. It's a searing and poignant book that deals with the abduction of Matar's father, Jaballa Matar, in Libya. Jaballa was a major opponent of the Qaddafi ...Read Full Post
Turkey and its war over Islam
As Turkey mourns the loss of 39 souls in the fifth terror attack to strike Istanbul in a bloody 18 months, the country's plight unveils the two arms of Islamism unfolding against Turkey's century-old canvas of civil, pluralist Islam. One is known as violent Islamism, and the other, less recognised but more covert (and, for that reason, more ominous), is institutional Islamism. While the gunman has already been identified and claimed by ISIS as its soldier, Turkey is learning the institutional Islamism that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has pursued for decades is no protection against violent Islamism. Erdogan's Turkey is increasingly governed by institutional, non-violent Islamism, a ...Read Full Post
Who is committing the worst atrocities against, us, Muslims?
Who is responsible for the greatest numbers of deaths against Muslims today? Who commits the worst atrocities against Muslims? It is not the West that claims the highest headcount nor is it Israel. The sad truth is that today Muslims kill the most Muslims around the world. Since the beginning of the Arab Spring in late 2010, more than 100,000 have been killed. Many of these deaths were in Syria, where thousands more languish in prisons expecting similarly grim fates. And with the rise of ISIS and the threat that it poses to regional stability, many more are expected to ...Read Full Post

In recent years the lightning stroke-caused wire-breakage faults occasionally happen in overhead distribution lines in China and these faults seriously jeopardize the secure operation of power grid, so it is the key for the solution of this problem to make the mechanism leading to lightning stroke-caused wire-breakage clear. Existing research results pay attentions on qualitative theoretical analysis and the experimental verification is in absence. Two processes, i.e., the line to earth discharge as well as arcing and combustion caused by power frequency sustaining current of lightning-stroke overhead line, are simulated in laboratory, and the conductor burning in 10 kV distribution system caused by arc due to power frequency sustaining current under the condition of typical short-circuit fault is mainly researched. Research results reveals that whether the root of arc caused by power frequency sustaining current can freely move or not is the basic reason of the phenomena that the arc-resistant performance of bare conductor is strong and the arc-resistant performance of insulated conductor is weak. Experimental results validate the fact that after the arcing due to power frequency sustaining current the breakage of the insulated conductor is inevitable and yet the breakage probability of bare conductor under the same condition is very low. The obtained conclusion is available for the prevention of wire-breakage of overhead transmission line due to lightning stroke, namely it is necessary to adopt the measure to prevent wire-breakage of lightningstroke insulated overhead transmission lines and it is not necessary to adopt such a measure for overhead transmission line using bare conductors.

Characteristics of pollution Flashover and raining flashover of DC equipment are restricted by their surface RTV coating insulation characteristics. In order to research the influence of oil leakage of transformer bushing on RTV insulation characteristics, ordinary RTV and insulation nanocomposite modified by nano-SiO2 and fluoride polysiloxane were selected, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of RTV materials were comparatively investigated by using SEM, EDS and universal testing machine. By the national standard GB 1739-1989, oil accelerated aging immersion tests were investigated, hydrophobic recovery characteristics of RTV in different immersion oil time and recovery time were studied, and the influences of environmental factors and component of pollution on hydrophobicity of RTV at pre-and post-oil impregnation were analyzed. The results indicate that the hydrophobicity and hydrophobic recovery characteristics of RTV are decreased by high-temperature transformer oil, and comprehensively modified RTV nano-composite materials show better characteristics than common RTV on mechanical properties and oil resistance. According to the hydrophobicity, the recovery speed and degree of RTV closely depend on the immersion oil duration, and regularly vary during a given immersion oil period. Pollution composition, ambient temperature and relative humidity have obvious effects on hydrophobic recovery characteristics of RTV.

Considering the fact that membership functions and factor weights are highly depend on man in fuzzy synthetic evaluation, a model for power transformer condition assessment based on Support Vector Machine (SVM) is presented. In order to eliminate the false feature and retain the true, the information data of the transformer is preprocessing with Kernel Principal Component Analysis (KPCA) first, the results become the inputs of SVM to form the KPCA+SVM model for transformer evaluation. To enhance the effect of evaluation, an improved KPCA+SVM model is proposed. Mixtures of kernels and parallel optimized strategies are used. The example shows the effectiveness and superiority of the improved model. 1548-7741/Copyright © 2015 Binary Information Press

The number of underdetermined equation, which is limited by the grounding down lines, reduces the grounding grid corrosion diagnostic precision. Based on the grounding grid fault diagnosis method and sensitivity analysis, the value of slip resistance change on the impact of the port resistance in several cases, such as small span, large span and edge, center and symmetrical cross-line of the grounding grid, is analyzed. A new method which is used to select the node pairs to calculate the corrosion situation of grounding grid is presented. Based on this method, the simulation analysis and field test has been done. The experimental results show that this method could improve the accuracy and efficiency of grounding grid fault diagnosis.

Taking the cable sheath overvoltage caused by an arc discharge fault in the operation of single-phase gas insulated switchgear (GIS) disconnector as an example, we numerically simulated the cable sheath overvoltage under different cases. Simulation results show that, the higher the breakdown voltage of air gap is, and the shorter the arc cut-off time is, the more serious the cable sheath overvoltage would be. Adding the sheath protector is the most effective way to restrain the overvoltage of the cable, however, the thermal capacity of the sheath protectors in the case of the arc reignition in GIS disconnector should be considered. If the graphite electrode outside the crossing connection of the cable discharges, the sheath voltage at the discharging point will decrease greatly, but the energy distribution of sheath protectors will change. It is found that arc reignition in GIS disconnector will cause the damage of sheath protector, resulting in graphite electrode discharging, and then more sheath protectors are destroyed further. The simulation results have reference values for the cable sheath overvoltage protection.

Power structure optimization is to determine the planning time, the type and the capacity of power supply, thus the best way to meet the load demand for development. With the help of Markov decision-making process (MDP), it has been established based on the grid-connected PV system generation. Using the optimal strategy of MDP, one step transition probability matrix and the expected total reward criterion have been obtained. According to weather conditions, PV generation was distributed to load, grid power and batteries. The example result shows that the expected total reward criterion of MDP applying to grid-connected photovoltaic system is more powerful. © 2011 IEEE.

After analyzing operation characteristics of battery swapping station (BSS) for electric vehicles (EVs), a battery state transition model in BSS is proposed. EV swapping demand model is presented based on EV daily consumption profile. The scenario reduction algorithm based on Kantorovich distance is used to reduce EV swapping demand scenarios. On this basis, a battery capacity optimization model in BSS under time-of-use pricing, taking the relevant constraints of charging/discharging ability and EV swapping demand into account, is developed to minimize the investment cost, maintenance cost and charging/discharging cost of batteries. A case study of certain BSS is carried out, and influences of battery price and electricity price difference between peak and valley on optimization results are analyzed. Results show that battery capacity configuration will increase with battery price decrease and electricity price difference increase between peak and valley. © 2016, Power System Technology Press.

The one-and-half breaker scheme is applied to 500kV bus of Three Gorges right bank hydropower station and its main bus is equipped with the segment switch. The on-off state of the segment switch is taken as the state of its position contact or hard strap, but these auxiliary binary variables cannot truly reflect its actual state, which may lead to bus protection malfunction, especially when there is signal error or misoperation. The problems existed in current configuration scheme are analyzed and the solution is proposed: as the segment switch is equipped with CTs at both sides and several differential protections with different selection ranges are configured in bus protection, the method of digital logic circuit analysis is used to obtain the operational mode of segment switch by analyzing the logic combination of differential operating data, which can truly reflects its actual state.

Visiting artist talks clay and balance
The Student Ceramics Art Guild hosted Brenda Lichman this past week, a ceramicist and teacher from Wichita, Kansas. Lichman makes functional ceramics, like mugs, teapots and bowls. During workshops and demonstrations on Monday and Tuesday, Lichman modeled her methods to 30-40 students and community members in the campus ceramics studio.
"The pots begin on the wheel. Simple forms are thrown with a soft, feminine profile focusing on accentuating the belly or the hip of the pot. This is where I want to create the most sense of volume and strength in the form," Lichman said.
Lichman begins her pieces by throwing basic mug or bowl shapes on the pottery wheel. She balloons those shapes out around the bottom or middle third, adding volume and visual weight to the original form. After the clay has been allowed to settle and harden slightly, she spends time applying decoration using slip, a viscous mixture of clay powder and water. Her thick slip surface decorations mimic icing layered on a cake.
After the slip has had time to set, she manipulates the forms further, pressing out from the inside of the shapes, adding small bellies in between the lines of slip. She fires her pieces in a soda kiln, a method of atmospheric firing that produces a specific effect on slips and glazes and renders every pieces fired one-of-a-kind.
Lichman has made a name for herself in American pottery with her particular method of surface design. Jenny Chamberlain, a Master's student majoring in ceramics, attended both days of demonstrations, as well as Lichman's Monday night artist talks in the Murie Auditorium.
"I could really relate to her interest in movement, and the figure. There was repetition and balance and flow, and it's all captured and explored through the different textures that she's using on her pots," Chamberlain said.
Lichman spoke at length during her demonstrations and artist talk about the importance of balance in both her life and work. As well as working as a functional potter, Lichman teaches ceramics and drawing at Wichita State University. She discussed how her initial focus in college, graphic design, brought her to her love of pottery.
"I was sitting at a computer for hours a day, barely moving. I'm an active person, I love sports— I need to stand up and do things," Lichman said.
A fluke in her course scheduling meant that as a college senior, she had one introductory 3D studio class left to fulfill. After those first couple of weeks in the ceramics class that she chose, she called home to tell her family that she was changing her major, Lichen said. She attributes her initial fascination with clay to how physical the act of making becomes and how difficult it was for her to master at the beginning.
Many of the questions posed to Lichman during her demonstrations in the ceramics studio inquired into her inspirations and influences. Lichman spent time discussing her own ceramic education, and her many male instructors who emphasized solid, traditional pot designs with little delicacy to them. Lichman questioned this, asking why her self-described femininity, and feminine designs, made her work worth less than theirs.
She spent time after college really developing her style and interests. The key to feeling successful in art making, according to Lichman, is to find the element that you love most about making that kind of art, and then make that element the thing that you do best.
Lichman finished a Bachelor of Fine Art in Ceramics from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in 1998. In 2002, she went on to complete a Master of Fine Arts in Ceramics at the University of North Texas. In 2008 she curated an exhibition for the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts Conference and the May 2009 issue of Ceramics Monthly named her an Emerging Artist. She has been published in both "Surface Design for Ceramics" and "500 Teapots, Volume 2."
The Student Ceramics Art Guild typically invites 2 – 3 visiting artists a year to host workshops, demonstrations and lectures on campus. The Guild meets every Thursday in the Fine Arts Complex, Art 415, from 5 – 6 p.m.

Foothill College won't have to log much mileage in its quest to return to the women's water polo state championships.
The road begins today at home in the quarterfinals of the Coast Conference playoffs, which the No. 10 Owls will host in Los Altos Hills. Top-seeded Foothill (17-5, 7-0 Coast) is the prohibitive favorite this weekend — the Owls have won their conference eight of the past 12 years — and seeks back-to-back NorCal titles after winning its first in school history last season.
To achieve that feat, Foothill would only have to drive to College of San Mateo for next week's NorCal playoffs.
"Very excited to be close to home so the kids can sleep in their own beds and we don't have to deal with travel," Foothill coach Jeff Bissell said. "Obviously, if we make it to state championships, we'd have to travel to Riverside. But we're not looking forward past this weekend. We have to take care of business."
The Owls take on No. 8 Ohlone today at 2 p.m., with the semifinals scheduled for Saturday morning and the championship game at 3:40 p.m.
Sophomore Deanna Farley leads Foothill with 48 goals, but five other players have scored at least half that much — Alexandra Chapa (40), Marissa Sendejas (34), Paly grad Shameem Jalil (26), Woodside grad Megan Bordy (24) and Riley Negrete (24).
"We have multiple girls who can get the job done," Bissell said. "We have done a good job supporting each other, playing as a group."
The defense is anchored by Foothill goalkeeper Ashley Arras, whose 320 saves (14.5 per game) lead the state by a wide margin.
"Ashley in the cage has been our rock," Bissell said.
On the opposite side of the bracket, Cabrillo and CSM — the No. 2 and No. 3 seeds, respectively — will likely battle for a spot in the finals.
"There's been two different sides to the coin with four dominant teams," CSM coach Randy Wright said of the Coast Conference. "I never want to say it's pre-determined, but I'm going to say it's going to follow suit with 1-2-3-4 going to the semifinals."
CSM (10-10, 5-2) lost 10-4 last week at Cabrillo, which isn't the biggest team in the pool but provides other challenges.
"We're not looking to get muscled, but we do have to be prepared to deal with their quickness," Wright said.
First, the Bulldogs must get past sixth-seeded De Anza in today's quarterfinals at 1:15 p.m. CSM will rely on scoring from Shelby Chung (49 goals), Jasmine Zaldivar (44) and Erica Staben (31).
"You want that game where it all clicks, everybody is on cue," Wright said. "And we've had glimpses of that; it would just be nice to put it together for 32 minutes. It's a lot to ask for, but if you're going to do it, now is the time."

Review: Treo 755p
Form Basics Extras Wrap Up Comments 5
Most faithful Palm users have already upgraded to a Treo 700p, and since the 755 does not have any new or even upgraded features, it's unlikely this device is meant for them. Even if it was meant for current Palm users, it's unlikely they would upgrade knowing that Palm will unveil new devices running a new Linux-based OS later this year.
Which means the 755p is probably designed to bring new users to the Palm OS, like the Treo 680p for GSM networks. However, despite the update to a more appealing form factor to attract the mass market, the 755p is still a higher end smartphone both in model number and price. The Palm's simplicity, even when considering the learning curve, could be appealing to new smartphone users. Knowing that the Palm OS is in its twilight months, however, this seems like an odd time for Palm to try to attract new users.
Video Tour: Treo 755p
Palm has dropped the antenna from its CDMA Palm smartphone - and sped things up a bit too.
Review: ZTE Warp 7 for Boost Mobile
ZTE's low-cost Warp 7 finds itself amongst some fierce competition in the middle of Boost Mobile's lineup of Android smartphone. This big-screened handset has conservative styling, but scores well on core functions such as call quality and battery life.
Review: Apple iPhone 6s Plus
Apple's newest iPhones may look like last year's, but the company packed tons of appealing updates into the 6s Plus. New features such as 3D Touch and the improved cameras impress, while refinements to iOS 9 and how the 6s Plus interacts with the platform give the handset new-found power.
Review: BlackBerry DTEK50
The DTEK50 runs BlackBerry's apps and services on Google's operating system and Alcatel's hardware. It's a curious collaboration of sorts that adds up to a better 'Berry.
Review: Huawei Mate 9
The Mate 9 is Huawei's flagship handset for 2016 and it's an impressive device. This over-sized Android smartphone comes in an attractive glass-and-metal form with top specs buried within.

Info concerning Laney College mens golf, and registering for discussion sections and departmental seminars. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. College coaches want to see you play. A lot of the time college coaches may have only one chance to see potential recruits play, so be ready to shine if you are visiting the campus in person. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Laney College Golf information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Laney College.
As a student athlete, you can play college sports competitively at an intercollegiate level, or just for fun via intramurals. Please keep in mind that few students will qualify for athletic scholarships, and that college coaches sward available sports scholarship money judiciously.
Approximately 126,000 student athletes go to college on either a partial or full athletic scholarship, but the vast majority of college athletic teams have open tryouts, and walk-ons may land a position on the team if they are talented enough. If you've been recruited or made it past a walk-on tryout, that's when the real challenge starts. You still have to make it through daily practices, and several rounds of cuts in order to make the team. Macomb Community College baseball prospect camp may indicate that it's an option to delay college entrance by a year. An extra year in high school or prep school can allow players to mature mentally, bring grades and SAT test scores up, put on weight and gain strength. Beyond consideration for Laney College mens golf, you may think about East Georgia College connections for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Etiquette Basics for Vapers
Even as vaping is becoming more and more widespread, there are still several people in this world who find the hobby objectionable. One of the best ways to handle this is by reading up on it, especially articles that show the top 10 e-cigarette myths debunked, for example. this way, it will be easier to refute false beliefs non-vapers may have.
The following are four different ways to show proper vaping etiquette amongst non-vapers and vapers alike:
Be aware of your environment.
This one is also probably the most critical. The most bothersome action a vaper can take is to blow vapor at another person's face, and it doesn't even matter if that guy or gal is a vaper. Even if you know all the top 10 e-cigarette myths debunked, nothing will work if you're being offensive in your behavior.
Thus, if other people are around, you should be mindful. Iin a music venue or a crowded street, those aren't the best places for vaping (unless you're sure everyone is ok with it, but if you're by yourself, then vaping is perfectly okay.
Try stealth vaping.
This tip is related to the one we first mentioned in that it also needs you to be subtle when you vape. Stealth vaping is a kind of vaping where you're supposed to hide your vape and liquids, and sometimes hold vapor longer than you usually would so you make clouds that are tinier and more discreet. You can do this to prevent distraction in the workplace, as well as to show people that you can be a responsible vaper. It's also a good intro to sharing your knowledge of the top 10 e-cigarette myths debunked.
But of course, not all situations are suitable even for stealth vaping. If you know for a fact that is should not be done, then don't force the issue. Otherwise, you will be ruining not only your own reputation but also that of the whole community of vapers.
Educate yourself about vaping.
The major issues non-vapers have about vaping are usually rooted in rumors they've heard through time. This can be very frustrating, since you probably know that these rumors, as rumors, are of course false. What you can do is to maybe talk to someone with misconceptions about vaping and try to clear things up based on your own factual knowledge. Definitely, knowing about the top 10 e-cigarette myths debunked is a great start.
If they're happy to listen, then take your time giving them a more accurate picture. If you know a lot about vaping yourself, then you can probably win them over to your side.
Don't be a snob.
We all know that vaping has someone developed a reputation as an elite hobby. Vapers may be tempted to flaunt around their devices with some unique pride. Avoid that. Don't discriminate against those whose device may be cheaper than yours, and definitely, you are not to judge their character just because of that. Be happy and friendly in the company of fellow vapers.
Sometimes, all you need is common sense and a good understanding of what's out there in the world around you. Of course, you also have to use all the resources you have, and they are generous these days. Read up on vaping, read more and develop a solid knowledge of how you can be a better vaper. Lastly, always be ready with your knowledge of the top 10 e-cigarette myths debunked so you can argue with any non-vaper anytime.

Q: Is It True That Some Lubes Can Damage Condoms?
A: Yes there are personal lubricants that can damage condoms. Oil based lubricants, for examples, are not recommended for use with latex condoms. Using oil based lubricants such as Vaseline or baby oil can damage condoms very quickly. All of the lubricants sold at Condom Fast are approved for use with condoms to make your buying experience even easier.
The best practice is to make sure and read the safety information on the back of condom's. Manufactures will advise on the type of lubricant that is safe to use with the condom, while other manufacturers may suggest not adding extra lubrication to their products, as they may damage the condom.

Burning Desires:
By Steve Chapple and David Talbot

Burning Desires:
Sex in America
By Steve Chapple and David Talbot
Doubleday, 378 pages, $18.95
``Nowadays, instead of mystery and excitement, we have a performance ethic about sex. You`re supposed to keep your circuits unjammed, you`re supposed to climb on regularly, you`re supposed to have good orgasms of the right kind. And it`s deeply tedious.``
These are the words of Germaine Greer, and although they seem surprisingly jaded coming from the ex-high priestess of the sexual revolution, after reading ``Burning Desires,`` the reader nods in sympathy. What becomes clear over the course of this alternately fascinating and frivolous account of the American way of sex is that too much of one thing almost always results in a dulling of the senses. Author Steve Chapple and David Talbot make a game try at staying chipper and alert throughout their cross-country, cross-cultural, pan-sexual tour of the hearts and libidos of Americans, but finally there is something unavoidably tedious about the subject matter.
Which may be part of the point. Unlike some purportedly neutral, fair-minded, unobjectionable sex texts-which at closer inspection prove to be sexist, homophobic and in many other ways judgmental, a la Dr. David Reuben-this book is both neutral and inoffensive. The authors admit right up front that they are both white, heterosexual males, but there doesn`t seem to be a particular bias in one direction.
It`s this intentional lack of partisanship, however, that contributes to the mildness of the book. ``Burning Desires`` is never remotely scandalous and too rarely provocative. Even characters from ideological extremes, such as censorship crusader Tipper Gore or radical feminist Andrea Dworkin, appear flat here.
Chapple and Talbot have turned themselves into characters in their book as well, but they haven`t found a way around the awkwardness of a dual-voiced narrative. Too often, when trying to differentiate themselves, they resort to such lines as ``It`s another quiet evening at home for your coauthor, the man from Hollywood``-a device that is distracting and unnecessary. There is only one ``voice`` in the book, and whether it belongs to Chapple or Talbot or a combination is irrelevant. Despite its lack of irony, the voice is good-natured, sometimes humorous and always eager.
Occasionally, though, the voice underestimates its audience. At one point, the authors try to explain why the rock band, The Beastie Boys, tend toward homophobic acts: ``Along with the gay-bashing humor, there is a lot . . . of sexual taunting backstage with the Beasties. It is the eroticized homophobia of a boys` locker room. Maybe it was because they spent so much time together, snapping towels at each other`s butts in a sense, that they felt a need to keep frantically asserting their heterosexuality.``
Who are the readers for a book like this? Chapple and Talbot offer a compendium of stories about American sex lives, including subjects as diverse as AIDS, promiscuity, sadomasochism, bisexuality, and pornography-things that most people have heard about and many have experienced. Still, the authors adopt an oddly historical, pedantic tone about familiar territory.
Perhaps ``Burning Desires`` ought to be placed in a time capsule, so readers in the future might learn how we lived way back in the troubled `80s. The writing is cogent and enjoyable, and the stories are diverse. But as ``a report from the field,`` as the authors call it, the book disappoints. The
``field`` is a familiar one: We`re living in it.

Outsiders can often find meetings in the Netherlands somewhat frustrating and certainly lengthy.
Meetings in the Netherlands are forums for debating issues in a full and frank manner where everybody is expected to contribute and everybody expects to be listened to. The purpose of the meeting is to move towards a commonly agreed approach which can then be implemented. However, reaching this common viewpoint can be a time-consuming business, needing a great deal of input from a number of differing sources.
The positive aspect of this consensual approach to meetings is that, at the end, real buy-in has been achieved and therefore implementation can be really swift.
The Dutch can have some antipathy towards those that they feel arrive at the meeting having lobbied prior to the meeting in order to reach a group position to expound in the meeting. This pre-meeting lobbying, endemic in many cultures, can be seen as devious and underhand and lead to accusations of hidden agendas and inflexibility.
Despite the often free-wheeling nature of discussions in Dutch meetings, protocols are often observed with agendas generally produced and respected and each person waiting for their turn to speak rather than interrupting whoever has the floor.

If you are currently doing business in Europe it is likely that you will have had some contact with the Dutch. This is mainly due to the pre-eminence of Rotterdam as a port and its position as the gateway to the European Union. This fact reflects the Netherland's history of one of the great trading nations of the world and also accounts for the fact that the Netherlands has more global, world-class companies than you might expect from a country with such a small population and geographic spread.
The Netherlands is international in its outlook – it always has been. Countries with small domestic markets need to look abroad almost as a matter of national survival and the Netherlands is a prime example of this. The Dutch want to trade – why not with you?
Given the Netherlands' central position in European business life, it probably follows that you should consider doing business there and that doing business in the Netherlands might also help you to springboard into other European Union countries.
A word of caution though – just because the Netherlands has a long history of international business and the Dutch typically speak excellent English doesn't mean you don't need to develop a good understanding of local Dutch business culture. The Dutch can't be all things to all men and when in Amsterdam you should maybe think about adapting to the local way of doing things. Dutch business culture is just as strong, distinct and all pervasive as in any other country and you are well-advised to do some research before you arrive in-country.
This country profile provides an overview of some of the key aspects of Dutch business culture in a concise, easy to follow-format. The document includes information on:

Cave Creek AZ real estate is diverse which make it necessary to keep several determining factors in mind while searching, such as type of property and school district. Different purchase options are also going to be encountered, such as Cave Creek foreclosures.

Once the pros and cons have been carefully compared, it will be easy to find many ideal Cave Creek AZ real estate listings to look at.
The purchase of a home is a major decision and due to the costs involved, it is vital to find the right Cave Creek homes for sale from the very start of the process. Once a budget has been set and a list of all features desired or essential in a home is compiled, the actual viewings of Cave Creek AZ real estate can start. Seeing a property in person is highly recommended, since that is the best way to get a feel for the property itself, the neighborhood and amenities in the area. Touring Cave Creek homes for sale is also the best method for comparing the various styles and types of housing, which can range from large luxury homes to low maintenance one bedroom condos. The location of a home can never be changed, which makes it one of the most important factors next to the budget.

Although Cave Creek foreclosures often need cosmetic upgrades or some repairs, they offer a great value for the money and can be purchased at a price under market value.

Offshore UXO SurveyDuring the construction wind farms, the laying of cables and dredging activities in the seabed there is always the risk of encountering unexploded ordnance (UXO) from the Second World War. In suspect areas it is therefore necessary to carry out an offshore UXO survey before starting the activities.
To carry out offshore UXO surveys, T&A Survey has a team of specialized ex-marine UXO experts and certified divers. The UXO experts also take a leading role during the implementation of the project. If, for example, during dredging activities an object gets stuck in the suction nozzle, they can identify and secure the object on the spot. This way extra expenses due to stagnation of the activities can be significantly reduced.
Mulibeam echo sounder, Sidescan sonar and Multiprobe gradiometer
By being dragged along by a survey vessel, these geophysical measuring techniques make it possible to create detailed maps of the waterbottom. The multibeam echo sounder maps the water depth; local deviations in detph may indicate the presence of a large object on the waterbottom, The sidescan sonar is even more accurate in visualizing objects on the bottom of the sea in great detail. The multiprobe gradiometer determines whether the objects detected by the multibeam echo sounder and sidescan sonar consist of ferrous material. It's magnetometers are also able to look several meters deep into the water bottom.
ROV and AUV
The offshore UXO survey is performed from a ship using an ROV (remotely operated underwater vehicle) and/or AUV (autonomous underwater vehicle) and several measuring techniques. The ROV for example is equipped with a rack of 8 to 12 gradiometer probes, a short-range sonar and a camera.
Data analysis
T&A's UXO experts start with the data analysis on board of the ship. By combining all the measurement results, suspect objects can be located with great accuracy. Based on the outcome, the principal can make the decision, if necessary, to relocate the activities or have the objects identified and removed.

I am done with these bloody things. Sorry guys who have kickstarters going. I am not going to back you anymore. Sure, I might promote you if I like your project, and encourage folks who want to back you do so, but me, personally?
Not happening.
Why you might ask? Well, mostly due to issues involving over-promising and under-delivering. Recently, for example, a game called Heroes Song had an IndieGoGo launch which I backed. I trusted the team, they were all seasoned game devs lead by a big name in MMO development, John Smedly. I backed at the lowest level (I only do this now due to issues coming up) and promoted it. The game is coming along, there have been streams of it being playable, and the big reason I backed it was the promise that I would get "Alpha 3 Access" sometime "late October".
Last week, a backer only update came out which detailed that they were most likely going to have Alpha 3 Access start on the 28th / 29th of October. Thats…really late October, but ok, I can dig it. It comes out right on a weekend and gives me some time to run around and enjoy myself, maybe stream it, before I have to start work.
Well last night Smedly popped up and crushed that notion by reveling that now Alpha 3 starts…on fucking Monday October 31st. Yea, he technically is delivering on the "Late October" start time but as far as I am concerned this is bullshit. 1 day in October. 1. With Early Access on Steam showing up Sometime in November? Well fuck why am I even going to bother playing it in Alpha now? Oh and its "looking like" its going to be Monday. IT STILL MIGHT NOT EVEN HAPPEN.
This is not the first time shit like this has happened. Almost 2 years ago I backed a Campaign Book for a setting called Karthun which was SUPPOSED to be released around 9/2015. Its now 10/2016. And its still not due to be finished till 2017 apparently. I backed this one to get a Hardcover Book. I regret this, honestly, but still want the damn book. I am invested now.
Or how about Cryamore which was supposed to be released in 2014, and I backed it in 2013. HEY LOOK ITS 2016 AND ITS STILL IN DEV! At least this one is still alive, and is now being produced and distributed by Atlus. They will hopefully deliver. Maybe.
It could be Artizens which is playable on steam…barely. Its dead though, development is stopped and its no where near what was promised. In fact, the only Kickstarter I have personally backed that has actually delivered thus far, gaming wise, has been Wasteland 2 and that was STILL a year late, having been supposed to come out in 10/2013 and instead arrived 9/2014.
The only other kickstarters that have delivered what was promised, on time, have been a comic a friend of mine put out, and some albums by his bands. Thats it. Every time I see someone talking about a Kickstarter project or IndieGoGo or Crowdfunding its always about how its…well not on time. Its delayed. Its being worked on. Its been abandoned.
So thats it. Its over. NO more Kickstarters for me. Not even if they are friends of mine, or people I like. I cannot trust that something will happen to delay it.
I am still waiting for Crymore for fucks sake. Maybe in 2018 it will finally be done. 4 years later.

Over the next few weeks, I am going to be starting to volunteer at Powdermill Nature Reserve. This is a great reserve and banding station that is about an hour south of my house and does some really great work. Today was the first time that I went down to help at their banding lab and it was a ton of fun. I am very much looking forward to going down more in the future.
Early this morning, I left Pittsburgh to go down to Westmoreland County and to Powdermill. The rain that was soaking the city made me a bit worried that the banding would have to be cancelled. However, the rain quickly cleared out and, except for a bit of sleet a little later in the drive, we were fine.
Pulling into the parking lot, I was surprised to see people already returning from the mist nets with birds. It was a sign of the great things to come throughout the day.
As the day continued, over three hundred birds were banded and processed! This is a fantastic number which they had only reached one other time this fall. Yellow-rumped warblers were by far the most common bird banded. Well over 80 birds were banded throughout the course of the day! There were also many song sparrows, swamp sparrows, ruby-crowned kinglets, field sparrows, and white-throated sparrows.
Among the more uncommon birds that were banded were a good number of purple finches, an orange-crowned warbler (I could actually see the orange crown as well which was awesome), some white-crowned sparrows, a couple of eastern towhees, a chestnut-sided warbler, two Lincoln's sparrow, some dark-eyed juncos, a handful of blue-headed vireos, and three winter wrens. Another highlight of the morning, was being able to see and hear a flock of pine siskins which was milling around the property. Hopefully this and the purple finches is a good omen of a great irruption winter to come.
Overall, it was a fantastic morning that was a really great learning experience for me and is something that I hope to do again many times in the future.

Although there has been much progress in the field of addiction and recovery, there is still no cure for addiction. A person must participate in a variety of treatment methods in order to get sober, recover, and create a new life for themselves. However, when approaching sobriety for the first time, a person might need to assess their options. They might also need to discuss the best treatment options with a mental health professional. This article will discuss those options for addiction treatment.
Many factors will contribute to a decision about which type of addiction treatment a person might participate in. For instance, the length of the addiction, the severity of the addiction, which substance(s) a person is addicted to, and the circumstances in one's life will all play a role in choosing the right type of treatment.
Generally, one's physical needs are the most important. For instance, if a person is severely ill due to the addiction, then he or she might be admitted to an inpatient hospital for physical and/or psychological stabilization. That person might stay in inpatient treatment, which is a residential type of treatment allowing a person to live at a treatment center for up to six months. Of course, inpatient is the most intense form of treatment with the environment, professional staff, nutritional meals, support groups, therapy, medical attention, and other services all directed towards supporting a person's physical and psychological recovery.
Depending upon a person's circumstances, inpatient treatment might not be the right fit. For instance, someone else might be better suited for outpatient treatment, which is a non-residential experience of services that a person would participate in throughout the day. Because a recovering addict does not reside at the facility in which they are receiving services, they might attend for a few hours a couple days per week. Or they might attend for eight hours five days per week, depending upon their needs for recovery.
Lastly, a person might not attend either of these forms of treatment. Instead, they might attend various services in their community, such as 12-step meetings, therapy, and doctor visits. In this case, a recovering addict is not going to one facility to receive these services. They are visiting various professionals in their neighborhood. It's possible that at this level of service, a recovering addict might be working or has other responsibilities yet also has the desire to strengthen their sobriety. A person participating in various community services might have a case manager who helps connect that person with the services that he or she needs.
It's important that a person find the right method of treatment that fits their needs and circumstances. For instance, a person who has a long history of substance abuse might require residential treatment. If this person were to occasionally attend 12-step meetings instead, then there might relapse and continued use of substances. The right kind of treatment will support a person in meeting their needs and then allow that person to move on to new goals in their recovery. Furthermore, the right approach will more likely keep a person sober and therefore boost the self esteem for a new recovering addict. Lastly, if a person can stay sober longer, family members and loved ones will also gain more confidence that their lives will no longer be disrupted by the dangerous cycles of addiction.
If you or someone you know is searching for the right addiction treatment option, contact a mental health professional. He or she may be able to do an assessment which can reveal the best treatment option for you.

Spectacular Spirits
Four generations of Cellar Masters have crafted the finest spirit on Earth.
The most prestigious spirit in the world, LOUIS XIII is crafted from 1,200 eaux-de-vie sourced exclusively from the Grande Champagne region of Cognac, blended and aged up to 100 years in century-old tierçon barrels. Four generations of cellar masters have succeeded each other to create a cognac with unparalleled aromatic richness and the most complex flavor palate ever achieved—a closely guarded secret since 1874.
So what tasting notes might one expect from this palate? Hints of everything from dried fruit, nutmeg and honey to sandalwood, leather, wood bark and the nectar of flowers—more than 250 discrete flavors in total. The complexity of the blend is displayed in the spirit's exceptional length, as well as the presence of flavors that never appear in lesser brandies.
And its vessel is as distinctive as yours: The LOUIS XIII decanter is a perfect replica of a flask used in 16th Century France during the Battle of Jarnac. Individually numbered and decorated with intricate shapes, it's a bottle worthy of its contents.
Sure, LOUIS XIII is not your everyday spirit. And that's precisely the point.
