An award-winning movie produced in China has been withdrawn from Taiwan's annual Golden Horse Film Awards, reports said earlier this week.
Tuya's Marriage (圖雅的婚事), which won the Golden Bear prize for best picture at the Berlin Film Festival in February, was pulled as Beijing bars Chinese-produced films from competing for the Taiwanese awards, Chinese-language media reported.
"China has again interfered in the arts in the name of politics ... by blocking Chinese films from participating in Taiwan's Golden Horse Film Awards," according to the Liberty Times (the Taipei Times' sister newspaper).
Golden Horse organizers declined to comment on the reports earlier this week.
Tuya's Marriage, an unconventional love story about a Mongolian herdswoman and her two husbands, had been nominated for four prizes including best film and best director, and was considered a frontrunner due to its win in Berlin.
A new film is to depict a gay love affair between Salvador Dali, the eccentric master of the avant-garde, and his fellow Spaniard Federico Garcia Lorca, the doomed dramatist and poet.
Little Ashes, a UK-Spanish production, is set in the cultural and political tumult of 1920s Madrid and follows the intense friendship of three revolutionary young artists: Dali, Lorca and the Surrealist filmmaker Luis Bunuel.
Described by its producers as "racy" and "sexy," the film will show Dali and Lorca's feelings deepen into a love affair which the sexually repressed artist tries and fails to consummate. As a substitute, Lorca sleeps with a female friend, with Dali present as a voyeur.
The interpretation, by British screenwriter Philippa Goslett, is likely to cause controversy among biographers and historians. Although a physically intimate relationship between the men has long been rumored, Dali told interviewers more than once that he rejected the homosexual Lorca's attempts to seduce him.
Playing the larger-than-life Dali is an acting Mount Everest. In Little Ashes the part has gone to Robert Pattinson, a 21-year-old London-born actor best known to cinema audiences as Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter series. Lorca will be played by the Spanish actor Javier Beltran, while the role of Bunuel is taken by Matthew McNulty, who was in Control, the recent biopic of Joy Division singer Ian Curtis. Little Ashes, named after a Dali painting, is directed by Paul Morrison.
The Exorcist was voted the scariest movie of all time in a Halloween poll published Wednesday.
The 1973 horror classic, starring Linda Blair as a possessed child, came out ahead of Jack Nicholson's The Shining in a survey conducted online among 6,500 customers of British music retailer HMV.
John Carpenter's Halloween took third place ahead of A Nightmare on Elm Street.
HMV executive Mark Frampton said, "The horror genre was not really taken seriously for a long time, but it's moved on from the slightly camp Hammer stereotypes that many of us remember and now enjoys the respect it fully deserves."
Meanwhile, a British film project has turned MySpace users into movie moguls, giving them a say in choosing the director, cast, soundtrack and marketing model.
While online interaction between fans and filmmakers is not new, the backers of Faintheart say they take the phenomenon further, and believe the Internet will become increasingly important to Hollywood and the movie world.

Amitabh Bachchan - Taapsee Pannu launch the trailer of Pink!
| Updated On: 9 Aug 2016 10:39 AM GMT | Location :
In this hard-hitting trailer Amitabh Bachchan is seen doting the avatar of a lawyer mouthing dialogues that are a first in his career.
Only a few months we loved Amitabh Bachchan in the trailer of Te3n.
He played the role of a grandfather unwilling to give up the investigation concerning the kidnapping of his grand-daughter years ago. This time around, Sr. Bachchan returns to the big screen with another thriller, a courtroom drama.
Pink is a film about three women who are held by the police on an attempt to murder charge. Bachchan on the other hand, plays a lawyer arguing their case. As their case is being fought in the courtroom, it is revealed that the women must be sexually assaulted and in a twist of events, the men have now become victims.
The trailer showcases the trauma in which survivors of sexual assault are questioned and fingers are being pointed out on their characters.
Although Bachchan plays a lawyer, he is also seen doting a mask that covers half his face in many sequences. During the trailer launch, Bachchan revealed that he didn't focus on his look and left the decision on Shoojit Sircar.
Initially, it was written to be a Bengali film, but considering the background of stories that emerge from Delhi, it was found appropriate to set the film in Delhi. Apart from Shoojit Sircar, the lead actor Taapsee Pannu is also from Delhi and hence found her character easy to relate to. She said, "This was the easiest and most difficult role to play — at the same time," adding further, "The role was difficult because the character was emotionally very draining."
Initially, the script didn't ask for a girl from North-east but producer, Ronny, who is also from North-east suggested to cast a girl from there as everyone is aware of the trouble those women face in Delhi. Hence the character was replaced and Andrea Tariang, a musician from Shillong belonging to the Khasi tribe was roped in to represent these women.
When questioned whether it's difficult for North-east actors to break through into Hindi cinema, she said, "I don't think it is difficult. You just need to be at the right place, at the right time." Mr Bachchan added, "It's important to include people from the North-east as well into our mainstream as they are mainstream India."
Pink is directed by Bengali filmmaker Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and will release on September 16, 2016.

Christmas Party Update
This is the outfit I wore last night. I felt great. I got this dress on clearance at the store for less than $10. I paid 1 pound for the red belt at a local thrift store as well. It was very cold out so I wore a black jacket that matched the dress perfectly that I also paid less than $10 for.
They had a buffet meal and I did fabulous about my food choices. I only ate salad, turkey, carrots, green beans, and had a tiny spoon of cranberry sauce, and a half of a roll. I passed over the stuffing and mashed potatoes. I will say as nice as it was to go out for a night with The Man, our home cooked food tastes much better.
The kids did fabulously. S managed to help the babysitters by holding H at the beginning and helping her to be comfortable with one of the ladies. We were able to stay at the party until almost 10 p.m. and they didn't have to call us because she did so well. The little boys were great too. We got compliments on our children's behavior. This makes me proud. I love compliments on my children when they are being good. It makes me feel like I am not completely failing as a parent.

Aren't we all wishing and hoping for something?
I initially started this blog in hopes to show people how serious I was about getting into the wedding industry, and yes, that is still one of my main goals. I'm wishing and hoping that my post-graduate experience brings me lots of opportunities for growth and happiness!
I am passionate about a million things most importantly; food, fashion, friends and family. So naturally I aspire to work in the industry that encompasses them all, weddings! The little blog is just my experiences enjoying all the little and big things in life.
I live, work and play in Los Angeles. Most of the time I can be found hitting up my favorite boba tea spot, seeing movies or strolling around local flea markets. I love cupcakes, my boyfriend, fresh brewed coffee and vintage automobiles.

Evidence based midwifery management of face presentation
Face presentation is a rare, unanticipated event in which the fetal chin extends (instead of flexing down on its chest) as the fetal head descends during labour and birth. Since face presentation is rare, it may only happen a handful of times in a midwifery career of several decades. The aim of this module is to prepare midwives to recognise the characteristic signs of face presentation, and to understand when expectant management and intervention are appropriate for the wellbeing of the fetus and the mother.
Learning aims and objectives
On completion of this resource, midwives and student midwives will be better able to:
The module enables the midwife to recognise that when the chin is near the urethra the largest presenting diameter is no larger than for occiput presentation, so vaginal birth is not blocked and the fetus is likely to be born without any intervention. By initiating evidence-based discussions regarding face presentation management, the midwife should aim to encourage expectant management, thus reducing the use of caesarean section where possible.
Keywords and linking topics
Face presentation, mentum anterior, mentum posterior, ecchymosis, pubic arch, pelvic diameters, expectant management, caesarean surgery, water birth, evidence based midwifery
The Practising Midwife featured article

Questions at the end of this resource will enable you to assess your knowledge and reflect on how you can incorporate it into your own practice. In the following questions, please select the answer that you believe to be correct. This will be marked and then you can move on to the next question. If you wish, at the end you can return for a further attempt at the questions.
Upon completion of the module, you will be able to download and save or print a certificate to include in your CPD/revalidation portfolio.

I have lodged a petition on the UK Government's website, which objects to the creation of a cross-Tamar "Devonwall" parliamentary constituency. Please sign, and please share as widely as you can.
The petition can be located at:
The full wording of the petition is as follows:
No to a cross-Tamar "Devonwall" parliamentary constituency
The "Boundary Commission for England" is carrying out a review of the boundaries of parliamentary constituencies. The review follows guidelines in the Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Act. This does not recognise Cornwall as a political unit and the BCE has proposed a cross-Tamar seat.
We demand that Westminster politicians amend the legislation to "Keep Cornwall Whole" and ensure parliamentary seats lie entirely within the historic boundaries of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
It should be noted that the Government has recognised the Cornish as a national minority through the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities, and it is evident that the creation of a "Devonwall" seat would be in conflict with the articles of the Framework Convention.
Thank you for your support.

Faithful pastoral ministry comes not only with many delights but also many demands. At Alaska Family Council, we know that pastors can feel spread thin with so many important things that vie for their time each week.
So, first, we'd like to thank you for your ministry, encourage you to continue living selflessly for Christ as His ambassador, and acknowledge that your weekly work has eternal glory. May the Lord abundantly bless you and your family.
If you've made it to this page and you're a pastor, you're probably already wondering how Alaska Family Council might be of further encouragement and help to you.
Briefly stated, we want to give you opportunities to further your ministry, and we do not want to distract you from your vocation as a pastor. We believe that as pastors and churches proclaim the gospel with words and lives that have been changed by the grace of God, we will see healthy cultural change in our communities and state.
We emphatically do not believe the votes of the legislature or stroke of a governor's pen can change the hearts of sinful men. And, while our subsidiary group Alaska Family Action does some of its work in the political realm, we have no interest in pretending that politics, politicians, or public opinion is our savior. We, as an organization, have every interest in confessing the One who is, and was, and ever more shall be.
With that said, here are some of the ways we'd like to help you further your ministry:
- Help you establish and develop connections and partnerships with likeminded pastors, churches, and ministries throughout Alaska, so that Christians may have a more unified public testimony
- Enable you to reach out to your elected officials (regardless of their political affiliation), know where they stand on key issues, meet and pray with them, thank them when they do well, and encourage them to be servants to do what is good in God's sight
- Keep you informed about developing cultural, political, and social issues we face in Alaska so that you can carefully think through these issues scripturally
- Offer resources and ideas that can be used to strengthen the diverse families and communities you serve
- Point you to the very best legal resources to protect the ministry of your church in an increasingly litigious society that does not want to tolerate religious dissent from the gods of this age
- Engage you in counter-culture initiatives, seeking to rebuild a godly culture of marriage, sexuality, family, life, etc. that the world is sorely lacking
- Develop a vibrant understanding of Christian citizenship–one that is not simply "American" but ultimately "Biblical" and honoring to Jesus Christ above all
If you haven't done so, please take a moment to connect with us by clicking the "Subscribe" button at the top of this page and select "Pastor" as your title. We look forward to serving you and your congregation.
Our national alliances with organizations such as Alliance Defending Freedom, Citizenlink, and Family Research Council link us with some of the most inventive, compassionate, and intelligent minds this nation has to offer. Through these partnerships, we strive to equip, protect, and defend ministries and ministry leaders in Alaska as they seek to honor God and serve their communities.
Get acquainted with a few of the resources we provide to churches:
- Read about the biggest legal threats facing churches today
- Know the seven things every church should have in their by-laws
- Consider some alterations to the language of your bylaws
- Use this audit checklist to make sure your church is prepared for attacks
- Understand why membership policies matter
- Keep up to speed with pastors' free speech rights

I'm seriously having one. I noticed this actually early this morning when I am trying to drop EC as much as I can (it's like 2:45 AM) so I gave up and decided to just sleep. I woke up this morning rather afternoon -because I woke up at 12 noon and still have that headache, I took a bath, had coffee and then it felt okay, I and hubs headed to the grocery and then I took a nap again.. I don't know, the headache is more painful now. I think I should go and sleep already.
Well, I will after doing this diet pills assignment.
I wish I could still drop more cards because have you heard? Entrecard is now offering a cash out program, though I think 1000 for $1 is a bit low, but then it's still money. I guess I have to do the dropping tomorrow.

Aspin deliver high quality foundation, civil, geotechnical and structural engineering products, consultancy, design, inspection and investigations to give comprehensive engineered solutions to infrastructure clients
Aspin was originally founded in 2000 and grew organically and by acquisition into the organisation it is today.
We are specialists in foundations and piling, working with our clients to implement innovation solutions in often difficult and challenging environments. Our piling techniques involve the installation of structural elements to transfer foundation loads through the underlying ground to support a multitude of superstructures.
We offer a wide range of piling solutions using low headroom and restricted access plant and equipment, which has clear advantages when working close to live carriageways, on embankments or under bridges.
As one of the leading UK suppliers for the rail industry, we specialise in the design and installation of foundations for trackside structures on the rail network, working directly with Network Rail through our Principal Contractors and Plant Operators licences. We also have "link up" approval for working in the rail environment, and our management and site operatives are PTS qualified.
Whatever the industry, we have the expertise to provide bespoke ground and site investigation, foundations and piling, civil engineering, training and plant services at the highest level.
On the consultancy side, we pride ourselves on our drive to meet our company's key objective of being 'Engineered Solution Providers'.
From advisory and design to compliance and delivery, we provide tailor made solutions to meet our clients' needs.
Following on from successes in Railway Engineering, we expanded our innovative and cost-effective design services into commercial industries including highways, waterways and general infrastructure.
Collaboratively with Aspin Foundations, we have developed a number of products and designs that offer significant benefits over traditional solutions. Examples of these are:
Station Platforms
A modular system using precast concrete units with all finishes either cast in using a variety of coloured concretes and surface preparations. The exact specification can be tailored to suit the clients' requirements. These are supported on frames that are designed to suit the site specific ground conditions.
An alternative to a traditional reinforced concrete gravity pad that requires no wet trades and that can be installed 'green zone'.
LOC Staging
Fully redesigned from first principles to allow a LOC staging to be founded on a single pile. We have taken our expertise, developed within the group, and offered the same level of service to external clients.
Designs are undertaken using the latest versions of software and the packages used are reviewed to ensure they provide the optimum solutions for our clients.

For most people, finding career success is important. According to a study, career success is in large part dependent upon a person's emotional intelligence, which in turn makes the person more likeable.
Whether you are looking to build your emotional intelligence to improve your job situation or you simply want to be a more likeable person, there are several habits you can adopt to make yourself more likeable.
Here are three starting point habits to try.
- Put Away Your Phone While Conversing. When you are talking to someone, it is important to devote all your attention to the conversation. While it might seem harmless to attempt to multi-task by talking to one person while answering a text message, your full attention is not on the conversation when you are talking to someone while texting someone or while doing something else on your phone. The other person knows this. Be willing to put away your phone and devote your full attention to the conversation.
- Be Real and Sincere. Most people know that person who is nice to you to your face but who talks bad about you behind your back. Then there is the person who is one person when they are with one group of friends and a completely different person when they are with another group of people. You never know the real person. Instead of pretending to be someone to get people to like you or to adapt to the situation, the most likeable and trusted people are their real selves no matter the situation. Plus, they are happier because they do not have to pretend to be someone else.
- Smile. People mirror the body language of others naturally, although unconsciously. Smiling at others during a conversation makes them want to return the smile, thereby creating a more positive mood for everyone involved.

Head of Boca Raton company collected $118 million in compensation last year
In the minute it takes you to read this item, Martin Franklin will make nearly $4,000.*
Franklin, executive chairman of Boca Raton-based Jarden Corp., made $118 million last year, mostly in stock awarded through long-term bonus programs. It's the largest annual compensation ever for the head of a publicly traded company headquartered in Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast, and it's a mark that eclipses Franklin's own record of $44 million in 2013.
Jarden (NYSE: JAH), the consumer-brands conglomerate that sells Sunbeam toasters, Coleman Tents and Quickie mops, disclosed Franklin's pay this week. Brandon Rees of the AFL-CIO noted this contradiction: Jarden makes its money from such middle-brow brands as Mr. Coffee, Crock-Pot and Yankee Candle.
"He's selling to an American middle class that has been decimated by rising income inequality," Rees said. "There's a growing disconnect between CEO pay and the universe the rest of the world lives in."
* This calculation makes two assumptions: First, that you linger for 60 seconds on this post. Second, that Franklin worked 100 hours a week for 50 weeks last year, and took two weeks off. And, as his company notes, much of the $118 million wasn't just for his work last year but a bonus for doubling profits from 2010 to 2014.


text: Days 168 through 174 were good ones. They were full of peeks of spring, sunshine (+ 60 degrees!), and good friends. This time of year is always so surprising to me – back home in the midwest there was usually still snow on the ground and weather like this wasn't typical until April. I'm sure we will have plenty of rainy days ahead, but I'm already looking forward to summer. Until next week, friends.

Tickets for the Walker/Mn Artists–organized conference Superscript, a look at "online art publishing's present and possible futures," go on sale in five days and we're expecting them to sell out quickly. The conference features an amazing lineup of critics, artists, authors, and thinkers talking about a variety of artistic disciplines. Some talks I'm really looking forward to: Claire Evans (of YACHT) discussing her position as "futures editor" at Vice's Terraform; artist James Bridle always brings an interesting take on the future of publishing (see the recent Artist Op-Ed he wrote for us); and Eugenia Bell diving into what has made Design Observer so successful over the years. Besides that we get to hear from people representing e-flux, Hyperallergic, Triple Canopy, Pitchfork, Rhizome, Buzzfeed, frieze, Creative Time Reports, LA Times, Temporary Art Review, and The New Inquiry. !!!
And because we're doing it the Walker way, there will be some fun crossovers with our programming: two new film premieres commissioned by the Walker (by Moyra Davey and James Richards), a crowd-sourced criticism component to our International Pop exhibition, and some healthy supplemental online content including a series on this blog about design and content strategy.

How to Win Warhammer 40k: Blood Angels Tactics 4, Rhino Rush
Time to talk about Rhinos. 5th edition has welcomed the new dawn of 40k, and with the rise of that dawn came the reliable and practical use of the Space Marine Rhino. I use them extensively in my army and walk all over people. In the Way of Sanguinius, the Rhino is the key factor in my plans.
Lets discuss the Rhino first. Armor 11 on front and sides, with 10 back is lacking but not terrible. It protects the squad inside from withering small arms fire, which is the intended use of an APC any way. No armored personnel carrier is intended to withstand the heavy guns carried by tank destroyers. Once you accept that and focus on the Rhino's strengths, you will do fine. You must give your Rhino extra armor. I know, it is a 15 point investment, and when using 5 rhinos can get really expensive, but I cannot tell you how many times extra armor has been useful, especially in tank shock, which I will get into after. I personally feel it is worth while to add the second storm bolter on at least one of your Rhinos. Just think of it as a mobile gun platform. 4 shots can be used to finish off that last lucky couple of guardians, or possibly add a wound to a commander before he assaults you. They can be wonderful for dealing with speeders. Remember, 5th edition is about torrent of fire. You want as many shots as you can get on the table, regardless of STR. Lastly concerning Blood Angels Rhinos, they have Over Charged Engines. This enables them to move up to 18" and get in position to contest/claim objectives, and tank shock enemy troops.
How to use your Rhino.
Use your rhinos as a mobile gun platform. Put a 10 man tactical squad with a lascannon and meltagun inside. Move it up onto an objective. Next turn, fire that Las and melta at any thing you want, keeping the guys inside safe.
Protect your squads. Put a 5 man squad in a rhino, and drive it up onto objectives. Keep the squad in the rhino... your enemy must divert heavy weapon shots onto them to crack em open. In the meantime, the rhino is protecting your 5man squad from annoying infantry shots. You can always disembark the squad and move/assault if you have to. So long as you have gotten your rhino into position, every heavy weapon shot fired at them is one less fired at your Baal Preds and Furioso. That is a good thing in turns 3 and 4 believe me.
Provide cover. Rhinos are great and cheap at providing mobile cover. Move that rhino up on to an exposed objective, and let it get knocked out... now you have a big lump of terrain to hide behind. OR you can use them to provide cover for each other while they are on the move. In the movie The Empire Strikes Back, Luke ordered an "Outside the Box" tactic to attack the AtAt walkers. They flew in a straight line, one behind another, 3 or 4 in a row. The lead speeder maximized its front shields, while the others saved power. When the lead speeder had its shields reduced to a dangerous level, the next in line leap-frogged into the front, always keeping a charged and undamaged shield to take the brunt of the enemy fire. Of course the speeders were weak vehicles and got shot down any way, but they did their job! They slowed down the enemy advance, and even took out a few in the process. Rhinos can pull the same tactic. Use them to provide cover to the ones behind them, each overlapping the next. Pop smoke on the lead Rhino. Next turn, move one up to the front that has not popped smoke yet. If done right, your rhinos should all have cover saves in open terrain up until they reach their objectives. (And if Corbulo is in one of them, you can negate a failed cover save once per turn.) You can also use them to block the enemy charge, and line of sight. Force the ork nob/warboss biker squads to go around them, slowing them down to allow you to get to them first. Use them to block LoS from enemy plasma cannons and battle cannons so you can advance your tanks. Make a wall around objectives you have just secured. The possibilities are endless.
Tank Shock. Perhaps my most favorite tactic! With 18" of movement, you can usually reach enemy squads and tank shock them. This will usually take them completely by surprise. First of all, They may or may not know how TS works. Their lack of knowledge is your gain. It has been my experience that 40k is 1/3 Army List, 1/3 tactics and 1/2 knowledge of the rules... (weird math intentional) Do not deceive your opponent, but don't feel like you have to tell them about all the rules in the book they should have in their own hands. They will probably know about Death or Glory, you can even be a good sport and tell them that they can Death or Glory your tank, but even that is not necessary since they SHOULD already know that. You could get away with simply saying that they have to make a leadership test, and if they fail, they fall back, and if successful, they MAY move out of the way or they MAY DoG. At any rate, wether you tell your opponent if they can use a Meltagun to DoG is up to you. A good player will know that, and knowledge of the rules is what seperates the good from the orks.
NOTE: My tactics are intended to be used against experienced players, usually in tournaments. In fun pickup games, you should always be a good sport and explain rules that less experienced players may or may not know. It is ok to nail em once, but make sure that they know what you did.
Back to Tank Shock. SO here is how it breaks down. You tank shock a squad, that squad needs to pass a leadership test immediately. IF they pass the test they may simply move out of the way, moving as far as they need to stay in coherency and one inch away from your tank. Fearless models need not roll. If they fail to pass the test, they will immediately fall back as per the rules... In this case, simply chase them off the table by staying within 6" of the squad. They can NEVER regroup so long as you have a model nearby.
If they pass, they may attempt to DoG. They can elect to select one model, and get a free shot against the front armor of the tank with whatever weapon they are holding. Over zealous 4th edition experts may jump to choose that powerfist... but in 5th edition you may use Meltaguns or lascannons to do the same thing. At any rate, which ever model you use, it gets an auto hit. It has to penetrate the front armor. If you manage to stop the tanks movement, either by rolling a 2, 4, 5, or 6 on the damage table you are successful. Glances modify the roll accordingly. But here is where it gets interesting. Extra armor allows you to ignore the 2, it is treated as a 1. So you can still move and now you are only stopped on a 4,5 or 6. That is a 50% chance at being successful... You cant beat that! Especially if you tank shock a squad with 3 Rhinos... They have to make 3 leadership tests, then beat those 50% odds 3 times. If the DoG is successful, then the model stops where it encountered the squad and the damage is resolved as normal.. IE your guys get out if it is destroyed and will probably die next turn. But if the DoG fails, the model dies, and your tank keeps on plowing through. You can even move on to TS another squad! This is crucial for taking and/or contesting objectives. Where Melta guns throw off the math is that they add a +1 to the damage chart... and reduce your chance of success to what 18%? 2 in 6 instead of 3 in 6... (assuming the penetration happens)
I once tank shocked a squad that had 2 meltaguns, with 2 rhinos, and the poor guy failed to stop the vehicles twice... Losing both models. You just never know.
There you have it. Cover saves and Over Charged Engines make Blood Angels Rhinos superb at land grab, take and hold missions. They are survivable, and are good at knocking squads off objetives. Especially if you can get to ones that do not have heavy weapons. Some guys like to take squishy and weak troops just to fill the requirement and hold objectives. They put them in the back and forget about them. Tank shock away!

Good stuff, I have used rhino extensively for many years with my sisters of battle. I rarely use Tank Shock, though, but I might be more willing to try it now.
Someone needs to learn fractions!:P 2/6=1/3 or 33%.

I think a close reading of the rules of tank shock says that the model taking the death or glory actually has to be in the way of the tank shock. This might allow you to tank shock the edge of a unit (1-2 guys without the special weapons) to try to force the fall back.
This works well for trying to force fall backs but will not work for most objective grabs since smart players will learn to place said model very close to the objective.

Fritz just posted in his blog that popping vehicles in kill point missions gives him a easy win. How do you account for that?

Sadly transports are an easy kill point for any one that wants them. The only defense is to keep your rhinos back, using cover to protect them, switch them up, pop smoke and press the attack. That's right, take it from good ole Mel, the cook. "The Best Defense is a good offense." Keem em safe, or use them to lure your opponent into trying to pop them. He will take them down, but will hopefully leave himself in a position where he has to expose a KP of his own. If I were playing Fritz in a KP mission, I would do full attack. Press the advance with my predators, mow down his Seer Council. Then focus on his Vypers. That would be my tactic against him any way. But In this case, I would try to position my rhinos back enough to keep them safe. You have to force him to shoot at your tough stuff...

"(And if Corbulo is in one of them, you can negate a failed cover save once per turn.)"
do you have a rule reference for that (a page would help)? About the part of it working from inside the tank.
When I'll use use that on my Land Raider with a Terminator Apothecary (DA have the same Narthecium rules as BA) inside I'll need to show it in the rules for sure lol good times :P

- Jacob Bodmer said...
@ Pendragon: Page 25, in the command squad entry "Once per player turn ... may ignore the first failed save(of any kind)"
As it doesn't require line of sight, the Apoc is free to use it from within a vehicle (and you measure the 6" from the vehicle's hull, extending it's range)
OFC, many people, myself included, would argue that, while this is true by RAW, it certainly isn't RAR (Rules as Reasonable) It's a med kit! How does a space-band-aid help a tank?
RAW is, typically, a bad way to play, mostly because GW can't write rules to save their lives. I could give many examples, but I'll spare you.

Secretary Thi Hong,
I thank you for the advisement it is much appreciated. However, while we do despise the Beiteynese government and what they have done to their people the funds themselves are not ours. So in keeping with our neutrality will give the Republic of Beiteynu three months to recover their funds after which time the ITB will confiscate them for use in our mission to end world poverty through sound investment.

These are the days when Birds come back—
A very few—a Bird or two—
To take a backward look.
These are the days when skies resume
The old—old sophistries of June—
A blue and gold mistake
Oh fraud that cannot cheat the Bee—
Almost thy plausibility
Induces my belief.
Till ranks of seeds their witness bear—
And softly thro' the altered air
Hurries a timid leaf.
Oh Sacrament of summer days,
Oh Last Communion in the Haze—
Permit a child to join
Thy sacred emblems to partake—
Thy consecrated bread to take
And thine immortal wine!
- Emily Dickinson, #130
Ah, Emily. Once again, you nailed it.
Autumn's summer's nod to Night -when dwindling light,geese in flight -heighten sight.

This is the second new series I'm picking up from the winter season. I'm not particularly a horror fan, but this seemed like a pretty well reviewed series so far, so I thought I would try it out. I guess if for some reason I don't like it, I only have to put up with it for 12 episodes, but, of course, I hope that it's good.
There is a story about Grade 9, Class 3 at Yomiyama North Middle School: 26 years ago, a girl named Misaki, who was the most popular person in the grade, was killed in an accident. The rest of her class, distraught by her passing, pretended that she never died, all the way up to her graduation. Now, Kouichi, who is transferring to the school due to his father's job, is taken ill as the school year begins, and is visited by the class's officers, though they seem to interrogate him more than wish him well. That night, Kouichi runs into a girl in an elevator heading toward the morgue whose name is Mei Misaki. At his first day of school, his classmates appear to be hiding something from Kouichi. Kouichi later finds Mei on the roof, who tells him that his classmates associate his name with death.
Well, since this is supposed to be a mystery, I guess I'll try to do as much speculation as I can in these write ups.
I guess let's get the seemingly obvious stuff out of the way: I don't think there is any coincidence that Mei shares her last name with the girl who was murdered 26 years ago. Furthermore, she and the rest of the class keep their distance from each other to such an extent that the rest of the class doesn't even seem to acknowledge Mei's existence. I think the primary question here is whether Mei is a relative of the girl from 26 years ago, or merely her ghost. I suppose that will depend on what direction this show takes: will it take a more supernatural turn or will it only appear to be supernatural, but actually not be? Personally, I lean toward the former since that seems to be how shows like this work.
The second immediate mystery is more unclear: why would the class connect Kouichi's name – specifically his last name – with death? It appears both his aunt and his mother attended this same school, though it's unclear whether they were in class 3 (though my guess is that they were). We know that his aunt Reiko attended the school 14 years ago, but we don't know about his mother. It's possible that one or both of them are associated with some deaths that occurred in the class at the time, thus why his name is associated with death.
And now my first speculation on what is going on (and please no one spoil whether I"m actually right or not yet): Misaki's death 26 years ago was by no means an accident. In fact, I have a feeling that students from class 3, either a significant portion, or perhaps the entire class, conspired to kill her for some yet unknown reason, and then used their behavior of pretending she had never died as a cover to act like they weren't responsible. As a result, the "ghost" of Misaki, who at the moment is in the form of Mei, has taken revenge of members of Class 3 ever since. Kouichi's roll in this story will be to uncover the truth of what happened 26 years ago and, presumably in the process, end the reign of terror of Misaki's spirit.

J's On My Feet6/21/15
am seriously thinking of creating a new blog series with the process of me building my sneaker collection. Looking back, I never liked sneakers and other than Vans or Converse, I had nothing close to sports related clothes and shoes. Such. A. Shame. Moving on, not really I am so hooked with these sneakers I am actually missing them when they are not on my feet
About three months ago, I was looking for a pair of everyday sneakers to go well with both casual and dressed up looks. I decided to go with a classic and one of the most worn pair of sneakers this year; a pair of Adidas originals. Before actually deciding, a friend of mine told me to buy Air Jordans and I thought they would look too big on my petite size so it was a NO. I recently saw the pair I am wearing on an intagram photo and guys that was it. Love at first shoe sight. Now these babies are mine!
Moving on for real, it was not that hot the day the photos were taken so me wearing a light duster coat was considered 'okay'. I just love layers too much and the way a duster coat feels on top of something lighter underneath. It is all about balancing the clothes so you are neither too hot nor too cold. This is what I achieved that day. I wore a light male vest (yes male, always) and a mini light denim skirt, which is probably one of my most genious buys this year. I am really looking forward on dressing this skirt up.

This learning video introduces high school students to a topic they would not ordinarily study in school, biotechnology, and to different applications of biotechnology that relate to the main theme of the module - making the desert greener. After reviewing traditional methods used for manipulating plants to produce desired traits, students will learn about the methods of making transgenic plants. Dr. Ziad discusses a real world problem that is critical in his country, Jordan, where much of the land is desert. A prerequisite to this video lesson is some background in biology. There are no materials necessary, and time required for the lesson is approximately fifty minutes, depending on in-class time spent between segments. Handouts of the images used in the lesson can be downloaded in PDF format. Examples of activities suggested for in-class participation include discussion of questions posed by Dr. Ziad and brainstorming about ways biotechnology can improve the lives of humans.
Dr. Jaradat graduated with a B.Sc. in Public Health from Yarmouk University in Jordan. He obtained an M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Microbiology/Biotechnology from the University of Manitoba in Canada and trained as a postdoctoral research associate in Biotechnology at Purdue University, Indiana, USA.
The goal of this web site is to provide balanced information and links to other resources on the technology and issues surrounding transgenic crops. There are specific resources for teachers.
The goal of this site is to provide quality learning materials for educators wishing to teach the science of crop biotechnology and the debate surrounding the safety of genetically modified food crops in the classroom. Curricula and lesson plans are featured.
The Secrets of the Sequence Video Series offers an innovative way for teachers to incorporate astounding advances in the life sciences from gene research into their teaching. See video, "Got Silk? – Biotech Applications".

Resting between the steppes of Asia and the fertile crescent of the Mediterranean, Iran is a stepping-stone between East and West. Persia's vast empire once stretched from the Indus River in the East, to Egypt in the West. It is still a land dotted with the carved reminders of the Parthians, the Sassanids, the Seljuks and the Mongols - their monuments serve as a vivid testament to the extraordinary cultural heritage of this vast country.
The journey begins in Shiraz, a beautiful city famous for its poets and its many gardens. Explore its winding bazaar and enjoy a cup of tea in one of its many peaceful teahouses. Visit Persepolis - the City of the Persians - built by Darius the Great over two thousand years ago and subsequently used by two more Achaemenian kings. Walk through the Apadana where Darius the Great once held audiences and received visitors. Superb bas-reliefs decorate the stairways and depict people from as far away as Ethiopia bearing tribute to the Persian kings. Dominated by tall ochre-coloured cliffs is Nash-e Rostam where the enormous tombs of four Achaemenian kings have been hewn out of stone. Drive to Yazd, a desert city dotted with the wind towers, which are a major architectural feature of southern Iran. These towers, still used, are designed to catch any wind and funnel it to the room below. The architecture of Yazd is traditionally Persian. Wander through the old quarter where the covered streets ring to the clapping sound of the weaving looms.
Yazd is one of the world's last centres of the Zoroastrian religion, which dates back to 1000BC. Isfahan is perhaps the most beautiful of all Iranian cities. Its moment of glory came in the seventeenth century when Shah Abbas I reconstructed the town. He initiated one of the world's grandest projects in city planning. Mosques, palaces, bazaars and public parks were built under the monarch's personal supervision. Explore this remarkable city of soaring minarets and domes of glistening turquoise and cobalt blue. En route to Tehran visit the delightful town of Kashan before continuing on to Tehran which has some of the finest museums in the Middle East.
The journey is open to the alumni of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge and their friends and families.
Maximum Party Size: 20

Hot Chip, Passion Pit, Omar Souleyman
Better Than: passionless pits, cold chips, obvious puns.
When it comes to intricately grand disco-infused future rock for dance-loving adults, despite our continued sadness and confusion over LCD Soundsystem's breakup, we can take comfort knowing that Hot Chip is still going strong. The London-based electropop outfit played a tight and highly danceable show for a packed house last night at the Hollywood Bowl as the headliners of a KCRW World Music Festival. Also featured were pop kids Passion Pit and Syrian musician Omar Souleyman.
After cancelling a handful of shows in conjunction with lead singer Michael Angelakos' announcement that he needed some time to improve his mental health, Passion Pit is just getting into the swing of a tour behind their recently released sophomore LP Gossamer. In any case, Angelakos looked every bit the healthy hipster gentleman as he delivered a set which grew more compelling in sound and scope as it progressed. Rich treatments of new songs like "Take a Walk" and fleshed out takes of early hits like "Little Secrets" found Passion Pit comfortably maturing into a legit live act after initially blowing up hard and fast. While Angelakos' falsetto felt forced in moments, his singing voice seems to have developed in richness, and it's encouraging to watch the group expand their indie pop staying power with an increasingly sophisticated sound.
Between sets, a warm breeze and a crowd full of indie rock eye candy made the Hollywood Bowl an incredibly pleasant place to be. Hot Chip took the stage just after dusk, a gaggle of British men in slightly rumpled suitcoats who launched into an immediately kinetic "Shake a Fist" off of 2008's Made In the Dark. "There's absolutely a fucking shitload of people here," declared potty-mouthed and perpetually smiling guitarist Al Doyle, and it took about three seconds for much of the audience to get off their asses and dance. Hot Chip frontman Alexis Taylor calmly and commandingly wove his pristine falsetto, a voice as true to form live as it is on record, through hits and deep cuts alike, although they did not play "Motion Sickness," which caused the woman sitting next to me to nearly start crying.
Signature jams including "One Life Stand" and "Over and Over" were brought to new levels of epic via the group's signature thump and shimmer synth layers and moments of joyfully ecstatic percussion. By the time the too-brief set reached its peak, the richly layered output had transcended into a full on jam session with the band seamlessly transitioning from "Ready For the Floor" to "How Do You Do" to a shimmery cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Everywhere." Like the bulk of Hot Chip's work, the latter was urgent but dreamy, technically tight and felt really good to sing and dance to. "Nothing is wasted, life is worth living, heaven is waiting, just look to the stars" sang Taylor during the show-closing classic "I Feel Better, and that was really nice too.
On a final note, while it initially appeared that Taylor's t-shirt had a bunch of chicken nuggets on it, post-show investigation suggests that that they were in fact hot chips, which is amazing.
Personal Bias: A guy I used to date once gave me a copy of The Warning for my birthday with a card that read, "I just can't respect a woman who doesn't know much about Hot Chip."
Overheard in the Crowd: "Holy shit. We've got better seats than Jason Bentley."
Random Notebook Dump: Guessing that when the singer was a kid he was kind of nerdy and got made fun of and kids at school smashed his glasses and shit and he thought, one day motherfuckers, I'll show YOU.

India on my Mind

A Humanitarian Effort - Soup for Syria
I would like to write about our project Soup for Syria. This cookbook effort is being carried out as a humanitarian effort to help families in distress.
I personally believe in peace among all brothers on this earth regardless of their nationality, creed, sex... etc... A family of 12 is living under a plastic tent, eating bread ...only!!!... and burning whatever is available in the garbage to heat themselves (poisonous fumes in the tent) ! This is unacceptable!
'I have traveled all around the country and have met all communities. They have all treated me as one of theirs. I am Lebanese. I have eaten with all and have been invited by all to come again. What makes us so special as Lebanese is our differences and how we can live together in a small country. No fanaticism required from any creed. Any human being is entitled to a minimum of dignity, we cannot turn a blind eye on this.
This is the key to peace.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Model S' started by Alex D, Apr 7, 2016.
Just got my order confirmed! Whoop whoop!
Congratulations! I have the same interior and exterior colors, you'll love it.
Thank you! That is reassuring
It was the only combination that made color sense to me as a whole
Congrats. You will love the car. It's the best thing I've ever owned.
It's funny, I'm also Alex D, got the same color, seats, and almost all the same options.
So it's like a dejavu? lol
Thanks everyone! Can't wait for delivery day! What do you guys think? 4-5 weeks?
Something like that. I ordered mine at the beginning of November (like 1st or 2nd), and picked it up December 4 at the factory for my birthday.
I hope to officially submit my order tonight! Can't decide on paint and interior color. Four hours at the dealership yesterday didn't help. Wife wants red, with black interior???? This is killing me, I like them all. I'm pleasantly miserable....
I hear your pain hahaha. My wife and I both immediately liked the midnight silver metallic, so there was no fuss about that. I was torn between torn between tan and grey leather seats, but finally decided on the grey, because a) I want to keep it grey in grey and b) I personally think (and please, this is just my opinion) that the tan is more for older people. I'm 45 myself, so not the youngest anymore, but not 70 either, so there's my 2 cents to the interior. The logical move with the grey leather interior was to go with the black headliners. The (creamy) white ones just don't match well with the grey color of the seats. I think black matches it better.
Congratulations! I'm expecting the same email for my ordered Model S tomorrow.
Congratulations! Timing wise, I the 8th of February and it was delivered 21 March. They are getting pretty quick!
Congrats and welcome to the club! You'll love it!
Funny we got tan because we thought grey was "old man grey". LOL
OK-I'm in as well. My pain is relieved:
Multicoat Red 70D, Tan Nex Gen, Black headliner, Pano Roof, Premium interior, 19 inch wheels, Autopilot, Std Audio
Now you have to understand, I've been driving a Prius for 12 years, and haven't had a ticket in over 25. This is a big step for me. Do they still let you go to traffic school for your first ticket? Prayer for judgement?
Welcome Charles!
Congratulations. As for your first ticket, at least in my state (CA), it depends on how much you were clocked over the speed limit. I was 30 miles over the limit 10 years ago and traffic school was not an option.
I am in too! I could not bear the wait any longer or the discussion on a refresh! If they make some changes and I get it great.....
P90D Obsidian black, tan interior, carbon fiber interior and spoiler, panoramic roof, black head liner, smart suspension, winter package, standard radio, 19 inch wheels. June delivery requested (we will see about any body changes!)
Very exciting indeed
Congrats to the newcomers! You'll love your vehicles and will say like the rest of us -- best car ever!
Now to wait and wait, check mytesla, and wait some more.
Welcome on board Sandman! I'm only 2 days in "pre confirm" and I'm already getting impatient... lol
So what are you guys doing to pass the time until delivery day, besides the usual like making sure you can charge at home, chargepoint card order, looking into possible accessories and so on?
I pretty much watched every available youtube video about the MS in English and in German (I was born and raised in Munich, Germany. Then moved to the US in 2002). My wife already feels neglected because of it (she's mostly joking about it... I think lol).
Welcome, your configure is exactly what I'm looking to go for too except may do blue instead of red. I hear ya about the ticket. I enjoy punching it in the Leaf, the MS will obviously be way more fun.

Spiritual Leadership
Adult & Teen Discussion Guide
The God-life is a journey, and we're all traveling it together. Everyone needs spiritual leadership along the way. Are you seasoned in your relationship with God? Be a spiritual father for those following behind you.
1. Discussion
1 John 3:1 [NIV] "See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!"
It's God's love as a Father that sets the example for us, and as the Holy Spirit changes us more and more into His image, we should live out that love as an example to those following us in this God-journey.
Q . Who in your life best exemplifies God's love put into practice?
Q . What are some actions – visible in your life – that reflect God's love to others?
2. Challenge
2 Timothy 2:1-2 [NLT] "Timothy, my dear son, be strong through the grace that God gives you in Christ Jesus. You have heard me teach things that have been confirmed by many reliable witnesses. Now teach these truths to other trustworthy people who will be able to pass them on to others."
Spiritual fathers are responsible for instructing and even disciplining, those who follow them along the way. It's not just a job for pastors, it's a job for every believer.
Q . Have you been through the NEXT discipleship process, either as a student or a mentor? If not, why not?
Q . What would our church look like if every mature believer invested in one person to mentor spiritually? How might that change the spiritual strength of Abundant Life? How might that impact our community?
3. Prayer Focus
Take a few minutes as a family: thank God for the spiritual father(s) who helped you to the point where you are now in your relationship with God. Ask the Holy Spirit to connect you with people you can look up to, and with people who can learn from your example.
Family with Small Children Discussion Guide
The God-Father
1. Power Verse
Joshua 1:5 "For I will not leave you. . . I will not fail you or abandon you."
What's Up: "God The Father Will Never Fail!"
As a family, write down a list of things that the "perfect" father would be or do. Write everything down, even if you know that what your child suggests may not really be what a perfect father would do (for example, "A perfect father would give me everything I want").
2. Discussion
Once the list is completed, go back through it and discuss each item. Ask your children if the item really is something a perfect father should do. Some of the things they include should definitely stay on the list, such "a perfect father will always provide for his children." Some things, though, should be removed.
Q. Why did you include these items?
Q. Is there such thing as a "perfect" father?
God, as our Father in Heaven, is all of the things a perfect father should be and even more. Earthly dads have limitations, but God doesn't.
Read the following scriptures that describe some of the characteristics of our Heavenly Father.
Matthew 28:20 "Teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And you can be sure that I am always with you, to the very end."
Jeremiah 29:11 "'I know the plans I have for you,' announces the Lord. 'I want you to enjoy success. I do not plan to harm you. I will give you hope for the years to come.'"
Psalm 121:3-4 "He won't let your foot slip. He who watches over you won't get tired. In fact, he who watches over Israel won't get tired or go to sleep."
Psalm 24:1 "The earth belongs to the Lord. And so does everything in it. The world belongs to him. And so do all those who live in it."
Job 42:2 "I know that you can do anything. No one can keep you from doing what you plan to do."
Matthew 19:26 "Jesus looked at them and said, 'With people, this is impossible. But with God, all things are possible.'"
3. Challenge
Even though earthly dads aren't perfect and may sometimes fail us, God will always do what's best and right for us, and He will never fail us.
4. Prayer Focus
Pray that God will surround your family with godly people who will reflect the characteristics of our Heavenly Father to your children.
Leading in Worship
Adult & Teen Discussion Guide
Worship changes you. Standing in God's presence, singing together, hearing from the Holy Spirit… it should leave a lasting impact long after it's over. How much it changes you, though, depends on how much you engage.
1. Discussion
Proverbs 22:6 "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
The way you as a parent, grandparent or mentor engage in worship will help define the norms and expectations for future generations, whether you're actively teaching it or not. Kids learn by example.
Q . What were worship services like when you were a child? How were they different from today? How were they the same?
Q . If you attended church with your parents, what do you remember about how they engaged in worship? What effect do you think their engagement had on how you experience God's presence today?
2. Challenge
2 Corinthians 3:18 "Our faces then are not covered. We all show the Lord's glory, and we are being changed to be like him. This change in us brings us ever greater glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit."
God wants us to engage in worship with excitement and awe, soaking in every moment in His presence. When we do, it not only changes how we experience Him, but it sets an example for others to follow.
Q . How would you describe your feelings about worship at church?
a. Can't wait for it to start.
b. Can't wait for it to be over.
c. Could take it or leave it.
Q . If you worked to change your level of engagement, what effect would that have on the way you experience the Holy Spirit in church? How might it affect the people around you?
3. Prayer Focus
Take a few minutes as a family: thank God for giving you access to His presence. Ask the Holy Spirit to draw you into deeper levels of engagement in worship, so you and the people who follow your example can experience Him more fully.
Family with Small Children Discussion Guide
Follow the Leader
1. Power Verse
Mark 10:43 "But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant."
What's Up: "I Will Lead Others To Jesus!"
This week, we conclude our series called, "Stand Out!" As Christians, it's important that we stand out from the world and from culture. We must be different, and one of the greatest ways we can be different and stand out is by being a leader.
2. Discussion
Read: Acts 6:1-7
"In those days the number of believers was growing. The Greek Jews complained about the non-Greek Jews. They said that the widows of the Greek Jews were not being taken care of. They weren't getting their fair share of food each day. So the 12 apostles gathered all the believers together. They said, 'It wouldn't be right for us to give up teaching God's word. And we'd have to stop teaching to wait on tables. Brothers and sisters, choose seven of your men. They must be known as men who are wise and full of the Holy Spirit. We will turn this important work over to them. Then we can give our attention to prayer and to teaching God's word.' This plan pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen. He was full of faith and of the Holy Spirit. Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon and Parmenas were chosen too. The group also chose Nicolas from Antioch. He had accepted the Jewish faith. The group brought them to the apostles. Then the apostles prayed and placed their hands on them. So God's word spread. The number of believers in Jerusalem grew quickly. Also, a large number of priests began to obey Jesus' teachings."
Q. Why did they need help?
Q. What did they do about their need?
Q. When the new leaders came to help with the food ministry, how did it affect the church?
3. Challenge
In this world, it's easy for kids to see adults as leaders, but not actually see themselves as leaders. But kids CAN be leaders – and more importantly, Godly leaders! God has called all of us to be leaders in this world, leading others to Jesus.
Q. What are some ways you can be a leader at home? What are some ways you can be a leader at school?
Q. How can you lead others to Jesus? Godly leaders have a good reputation, practice self-control, seek peace rather than drama, and always follow Jesus' commands. If we do those things, we can really STAND OUT for Jesus!
4. Prayer Focus
Ask your kids if they would like to commit to becoming a Godly leader. Pray that they will have a good reputation, practice self-control, always seek peace, and follow Jesus' commands no matter what.

A couple of decades ago –i.e. 1984- Info Arab had started its stream of Arabic linguistic
products with a product that was a break through at that time.
Arabisk as one of the first MS-DOS Arabization utilities had so many
unique features and achieved an excellent market perception and user satisfaction.
since then, Info Arab's breakthroughs have started…
Over a thousand person months of dedicated efforts, distributed along the last 30
years, in some periods with a staff of professionals of 15 persons and more, Info
Arab succeeded in providing the market with a lot of RELIABLE Arabic linguistic
components. The real value of these components is not limited to being the first
of their kinds –e.g. the first ever Arabic spelling checker, the first ever Arabic
grammar checker …etc- but in addition to these lies a remarkable world class quality
and several unique features summarized as follows…
Platform independence… All the above technologies
are truly platform independent. Whether the target operating system is 32 or 64
bits, MS-Windows (9x, NT, 2000 or XP. Vista, Windows 7), MAC OS (86K, PPC, and MOC
OSX), UNIX, Linux, or even proprietary OS (as those of the hand held dictionaries
based on micro-computer chips or micro-controllers), our technologies are there
ready to run.
Most Efficient… since all of our technology modules
are to be linked with other applications, extreme care had been taken to their required
computer resources –e.g. required RAM, storage ..etc, without forgetting their performance
–e.g. accuracy, speed ..etc.
Very well tested… with over 40 thousand copies
of Info Arab 's ready made products containing these technologies –e.g. Abgad Hawaz,
Cibawee, Kalemat, IEAD, ARABISK …etc- and millions of licensees 's products –e.g.
Word Perfect, Corel draw, Novel group wise, Adobe Indesign, Caere OmniPage, Al-Nasher
Al-Maktabi, Al-Sohafi, Alef, Al-Ma'ajem …etc- there is no doubt that these technologies
enjoy passing the hardest test ever any product may have.
Covering all the Arabic languages special features
including different schools of writing.
Scalable structure… taking into consideration
the proper building blocks of any language and those specific to the Arabic language.
Modularity… each technology is totally integrated
with others such that the licensee may choose whatever suits his needs and integrate
them within their application seamlessly.
Ease of integration
… through the wealth of experience and large number of licensees,
Info Arab' s accumulated experience has enabled it to design a worlds class SDK
–Software Development Kit- and API 's –Application Programs Interface- that matches
the world leaders standards and requirements.

A Fool in The Making
Follow God's Way
1 Samuel 13:13
13 Samuel said, "You acted foolishly! You haven't obeyed the command of the Lord your God. If you had obeyed him, the Lord would have made your kingdom continue in Israel always, 14 but now your kingdom will not continue. The Lord has looked for the kind of man he wants. He has appointed him to rule his people, because you haven't obeyed his command."
Sometimes we will be faced with trouble. Trouble will be all around us our human support will start to leave us. In the mist of all this trouble we will forget what God has done for us and start to think we can move without God. We will think that we have done this thing on our own. We forget about God.
God wants us to be humble he creates discomfort because we began to think that we can do this thing without God. I'm not saying we stop believing in God but we start to think that God is following us. We think that we can do whatever we want and he will help us to get this thing done.
When trouble surround us and no matter which way we turn there is trouble. We are so consumed by the trouble we forget about God. Some times we have to slow down and wait on God to find the way. Sometimes we have to suffer a little before we grow in God glory. We just need to have faith as God works his plan.
Saul was on the battlefield surrounded by trouble he couldn't wait on God. Saul was arrogant and proud and he couldn't wait on the prophet to offerer the sacrifice. So he did it himself so. God could no longer use this man.
Follow God's way don't lean or stand on your own. Follow his commands and seek his knowledge. Humble yourself before him.

Ten Mile RiverBook - 2008
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
"Ray was bigger but José was boss." From his killer opening line, author Paul Griffin unfolds the gritty world of two fourteen-year-olds squatting in an abandoned stationhouse in New York City's Ten Mile River park. Ray--brawny, sensitive and intelligent--and José--shrewd and charming--have survived foster care and "juvie" together and are closer than brothers. Without school, family or responsibilities, they eke out a life by stealing and picking up odd jobs. As their lives ebb and flow with danger, new loves and running from the law, will Ray's friendship with José remain firm?
Griffin's first novel (as with his later efforts "Stay With Me" and "The Orange Houses"), is smart and dialogue-rich, his characters intelligent, independent outcasts navigating maturing relationships and newly adult decisions. This, a slim urban fiction offering, won't satisfy those looking for a meaty story, but Griffin's talent for authentic dialog and memorable characters floods the book with heart and a whole 'lotta soul. Ages 12+

What Appears on a Crook Background Examine - Sample Background Reports
Exactly what to get out of online rap sheets
There are lots of online internet sites that supply you the possibility to do criminal background checks but it's commonly difficult to work out just what it is that you will actually obtain from the reports without initial joining the site. Would not it excel if you could see some sample records from the web site before you joined?
On-line background checks typically aren't excellent. They don't assure that the details in their database is right neither could you reasonably anticipate that every single sheet of details regarding every person is offered.
The quantity of info offered varies from one state to another as well as authority to authority but overall, based on my encounter, there is a likelihood that you will be able to find some details on the individual that you are visiting. I have actually managed to locate out a great deal of details about a lot of individuals I've hunted for. Some of it was quite intriguing I can inform you.
What does a criminal background check contain
When you look for background concerning somebody online you obtain a great deal greater than merely their criminal record. Even if they do not have a criminal history you could discover out a lot of various other interesting aspects of them. Here is a list of a few of the important things that you could be able to discover:
Call as well as attend to, address past history, email addresses, family members and partners, Bonuses next-door neighbors, arrest warrants, civil filings, characteristic ownership, state rap sheets inspect, area examination.
Using sample background examination reports to figure out exactly what to anticipate
You can get a more ideal idea of just what is included in a criminal background examination by taking a look at example reports from everyone records database website that you are considering utilizing. Taste reports do not give you any kind of specific regarding actual individuals but they can aid you to recognize the kind of info you could have the ability to find out.
Test records aren't simple to locate but I've made it easy for you to check out some instances before you join a background check internet site. I have actually secretly duplicated several of the sample records from everyone records website that I've been using lately. You can analyze them below: Bad guy Background Checks example records.
