Hey everyone!
Renae here,
Today I wanted to post about a new gem I recently found out about, which is numerology. I want to first put it out there that I am a beginner to this occult method. Though I am only a newbee, I must admit, I [surprisingly] find this extremely revealing and at least for me, very true.I am not a huge believer in astrology, I do read it for entertainment purposes, but that is about it. Numerology is a close cousin to astrology. Here is how numerology works. Using numbers such as your birthday, name (which can be broken down into numbers) and even the vowels and constants in your your [full] birth name, you can discover your life path (personality traits that are always within you and make up much of who you are and how people see you) your destiny (what your supposed to do in life/purpose) also called your expression number, and other things such as your soul urge (what drives you) and your inner desires (things that you may not even consciously know you yearn for). It isn't psychic work nor magic. The numbers are pre-destined and written. Each number has a meaning and spiritual explanation as to how it pertains to you. This is literally math. And practitioners of numerology and scientists alike explain that everything in this world is mathematical. So understanding numbers and why they are here, presented to you repeatedly in certain fashions all mean so much more than a coincidence. Practitioners of numerology believe that everyone should have an understanding of numbers to better understand not only themselves, but people around them, even down to knowing the season you are in and how to get the best out of it. Numerology can even go as far as helping you recognize who a great partner is for you based on their birth days and life path numbers, in correlation to your numbers of course.
So how does numerology work?
Well in numerology the numbers 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 make up all numbers and all numbers can be broken back down into these single digit numbers. Based on what you are looking at the numbers for, each number can tell you how they apply to you and how they make up who you are and meant to be. I will start with myself as an example. For fun, I will also show you how to calculate your own life path number, along with a link to read what your life path number means for you. (You may find these descriptions shockingly true)
OK, so my birthday is 01-16-1988, In order to get my birthday down to one single number, I will add 1+16+1988. It is important to add the entire 4 digit year and not the last two digits as someone could've been born 2088, or 1888, creating an entirely different number. This equals out to 2005, I then add 2+0+0+5, equaling 7 (if your sum is still a double digit, then you add them together again to get your life path number, ex: 11/1+1=2). So my life path number is 7. Each life path number holds both positive and negative attributes, as humans have both. The life path of a number 7 as taken from astrology-numerology.com;
"The Life Path 7 suggests that you entered this plane with a gift for investigation, analysis, and keen observation. You are a thinker of the first order. You evaluate situations very quickly, and with amazing accuracy. As a result, you are thorough and complete in your work, the perfectionist who expects everyone else to meet a high standard of performance, too.
A Life Path 7 person is a peaceful and affectionate soul. But you guard your connection to people carefully. It's easy for you to detect deception and recognize insincere people, and you avoid them. You aren't one to have a wide circle of friends, but once you accept someone as a friend, it's for life. It's as if you must get to know someone a lot better before you allow the wall surrounding you to be penetrated. Chances are you are a very charming and refined individual with great poise and a quick wit. Nonetheless, there is an exclusiveness about you. You probably aren't a very social person. Your reserve is often taken to be aloofness, but actually, it's not that at all. It is merely a cover up for your basic feeling of insecurity. There's no rush, It takes time for you to warm up to new friends. Clubs and organizations hold little interest for you; you are not a joiner.
You actually like being alone and away from the hustle and bustle of modern life. In many ways, you would have fit in better in much earlier times when the pace of life was less hectic. You need a good deal of quiet time to be with your own inner thoughts and dreams. You dislike crowds, noise, distractions, and confusion.
The overwhelming strength of the number 7 is reflected in the depth of thinking that is shown; you will garner knowledge from practically every source that you find. Intellectual, scientific, and studious, you don't accept a premise until you have dissected the subject and arrived at your own independent conclusion.
This is a very spiritual number and it often denotes a sort of spiritual wisdom that becomes apparent at a fairly early age. A built in inner guide providing a strong sense of intuition may set you up as being a law unto yourself. Whatever spiritual position you take, whether traditional or bizarre, you will cling to it with fervor. Once you have decided an issue, it is almost impossible to get you to revisit the question. Adaptability is not your style, and change for you is a rarity.
You rely heavily on your experiences and your intuition, rather than accepting advice from someone. Your hunches usually prove to be very accurate, and knowing this, you follow the directions they seem to guide.
In the most negative use of the 7 energies, you can become very pessimistic, lackadaisical, quarrelsome, and secretive. A Life Path 7 individual who is not living life fully and gaining through experiences, is a hard person to live with because of a serious lack of consideration for others. There is such a negative attitude. Indeed, operating on the negative side of the 7 can produce a very selfish and spoiled individual and living with one can be a challenge. This may be why some 7's actually prefer living alone. If you have any of the negative traits they are very difficult to get rid of because you tend to feel that the world really does owe you a living or that in some way you are not being fairly treated.
Fortunately, the negative 7 is not the typical 7, at least not without some mitigating positive traits. This number is one that seems to have some major shifts from highs to lows. Stability in feelings may be elusive for you."
For me, this description was almost eerily on point. It's very easy to deny the negative aspects because we don't want to agree that we may have experienced them or are inclined to. But at least for me, I have battled with to some extent depression. I am avidly against the use of drugs, but in a high emotional states, have divulged into drinking alcohol, never to the extent of alcoholism, but I do understand what it's getting to. If you have already completed your birthday calculation, follow this link to read your life path number description.
Happy Reading!!
Love and Life XO

Successful claims start with detailed documentation. OS&D Incident allows Receiving to enter an incident which can later be converted into a freight claim. Once the incident is closed, the system stores the reason for closure for use in later reporting.
The cloud-based database makes it easy to share incident details in real time with all stakeholders, both inside and outside the company. No more emailing copies of spreadsheets to insurers. Plus, detailed privacy settings allow you to control which incidents an outside stakeholder has access to.
Customizable fields allow you to collect, store, and review the details of past incidents for prevention and risk management. The system can even handle near misses.
Alerts can be set to remind you of task deadlines as needed. Choose to have reminders sent via email, or only within the system.
Emails can be sent from within the system, so all email correspondence is stored within the incident record. No more searching through your sent emails for a paper trail or needed file. Email functionality also allows you to check who your colleagues have emailed about the incident; no more cluttering your inbox with CCed messages.
The Tasks Scheduler allows you to decide, in advance, when tasks should be created and scheduled. For example, you might decide to prioritize the processing of large claims over $10,000. You could then create a rule so that any claim with a value over $10,000 has a task automatically scheduled. You can also set account-specific priority level, as well as define the deadline for the task.
Record details of salvage within the incident report. Track details such as price, buyer, and date sent to salvage.
Track everyone involved in the incident, including company role, whether or not they were injured, and injury details.
The module comes pre-loaded with several fields to track the details of temperature damage, including BOL Temperature, Temperature Setting, whether or not the temperature download has been received, and whether or not the reefer has been inspected.
Even with multiple people and departments working on the incident, it's easy to see which actions have been taken, when. All actions are recorded in the Diary section of the module, automatically creating an audit trail.

WELL, I'm so depress right now. I have lost half of my stuffs because of my frequent forgetfulness.
Does it happen to you too?
How can you improve it? Write down note!! I've just started it. hm… where is my note book hahha
Is there anything you can eat to improve your memorization? such as peanuts.. i heard
Anyway, because of this, I always have to go back to my house at least twice whenever i'm leaving. So often that my parents just leave the door open so i don't have to unlock it.
I don't intend to do this at all. I have always check before leaving if i forget to bring anything. Even my neighbor apartment know it too since the door is pretty crappy.
Today! Yes…Today while cleaning through my purse = I found out that i just had lost my Credit Card from yesterday shopping. I think I forget to get it back from the cashier.
Also Today, I just remember that i forget to get my jeans from 1 or 2 months ago from the sewer. (i'm short so my jeans are always cut up/trim -how do you say it?)
Sadly, I have no evident of what color, how many pants or jeans it was nor the receipt. So I guess my money was wasted.

My latest decor obsession (and yes I have a lot of them) is copper…copper everything. I am, as I said, obsessed, it pairs so well with white, grey and marble interiors making it a perfect highlight for living rooms, dining rooms and kitchens.
Having just moved in to a new place my inner interior decorator is going crazy with ideas and I have absolutely fallen in love with copper. My first aim is to get myself a stunning copper lamp like this one from No on the High Street (£169) for the living room. Lamps are always so much nicer to illuminate a room than overhead lighting so we have always tried to fill our home with lovely lamps and warm bulbs to keep the energy calm.
For a while now we have had a simple black IKEA lamp; it has served us well but I am on the hunt for an upgrade that still sheds a lot of light but is also a stunning statement in the corner.
Speaking of the living room what is it without eye catching ornaments on shelves, tables of the like. I am a sucker for kitschy pieces and I immediately fell in love with this flamingo from Maisons du Monde for £35.99.
Then there's the sofa. I love ours, a simple IKEA L shape that pulls out into a sofa bed (perfect for movie nights) and the dark grey upholstery works with a whole host of colours but I'm set on pale turquoise blue and copper (of course). So of course when I found these faux suade cushions from the Ethical Market (£23.00) I fell head over heals.
Of course there's my kitchen, my favourite place in the whole house and it wouldn't be complete with out a few copper bits an pieces now would it. Our kitchen isn't huge – it is an apartment after all – so I'm always looking for clever storage solutions so that my other half doesn't make me get rid of stuff to make room.
When I stumped across this two tier hanging basket from CB2 ($29.95) I knew it would be the perfect place for onions, potatoes, citrus fruits and apples, etc., much better than keeping them on the counter taking up vital space.
Speaking of my other half his obsession with coffee knows no bounds and his favourite way to brew? The Fresh Press – simple, no fuss, just good coffee. So when I saw this pot from Nordstrom (AED 197.55) that makes up to eight cups I knew it was the perfect way for him to get his caffeine fix and my kitchen to look coherent.
Then there's the cutlery, the one thing that anyone who comes to your house for dinner will see. There are lots of different styles of copper cutlery sets out there, and I like an awful lot of them but this one from Pier1 ($99.95) won me over.
A lot of people are jumping on the zero waste band wagon and realising that there's a lot of things we use every day that cause an awful lot of rubbish to build up. Enter these stunning copper, reusable drinking straws from Urban Outfitters for just $16. Not only do they help reduce waste but they also look pretty snazzy too.
If you are looking to reduce waste but you're not willing to compromise on style and turn your home into a hippy den – the non-bohochic kind – to dispose of what you do create then this statement rubbish bin might be the perfect fit for you (I know I want one!).
Another Urban Outfitters buy this bin is pretty costly at $49, but style is priceless.
If cocktail parties are more up your alley than dinner parties then this hammered copper ice bucket from Pier1 ($39.95) is probably exactly what your bar has been missing all these years.
When you need to get rid of all those guests, be they full of food or full of cocktails, you'll need to ring them a cab, so why not do it in style? This awesome throwback phone from Oliver Bonas (AED 319) has all the retro chic we crave with the added hint of modernity to keep things in line.
For a little more retro copper style I love this storage cabinet from Made (£399), the colours are stunning and there is nothing wrong with a little stylish storage to keep your study or office looking on point.
Paired with a heavy wood desk or something lighter if you like playing with contrast there is no doubt that these draws make a serious eye-catching statement.
I'm still scouring the stores here for bits and pieces I don't have to wait three weeks to have delivered but so far I haven't come up with much bar a few bits in Crate and Barrel but nothing stunning – mostly just bar accessories that I have no need for just yet (not until the other half finds the bar he wants).
So if you find anywhere selling breath taking copper decor in the city then let me know! Share the knowledge people, I'm on a mission.

Lambert to seek sheriff's position
Chief deputy running for Escambia sheriff
January 11, 2018
Escambia County (Ala.) Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Mike Lambert announced he will be a candidate for sheriff in the June 5 Democratic primary.
Current Sheriff Grover Smith has announced he will not seek re-election to another term.
"I have the experience," Lambert said. "I've learned and come up through the ranks. I know what it's like to be a patrol officer, investigator and administrator. I know what it takes to be the sheriff."
"My family lives in Escambia County, my children go to school in Escambia County," Lambert said. "This is home. My wife works for the Escambia County School System and my son is a fireman at the Atmore Fire Department."
Lambert, 48, is a native of Monroe County saying he grew up off of Butler Street at the Monroe, Conecuh and Escambia county lines.
A 1988 graduate of J.U. Blacksher High School, Lambert attended Patrick Henry State Jr. College and completed the Emergency Medical Technician Program and went to work with the ambulance service in Monroe County. He attended Wallace Community College in Selma and completed his advanced EMT certificate.
Lambert began his law enforcement career under Monroe County Sheriff Tom Tate in 1991 as a sheriff's deputy. While working full time as a deputy, Lambert continued to work with the ambulance service.
Lambert then attended the University of South Alabama to become a paramedic, while still working as a deputy sheriff.
Lambert was promoted to the rank of corporal in Monroe County and in 1997 Escambia County Sheriff Tim Hawsey recruited him to come work with the Escambia County Sheriff's Office. Lambert joined the sheriff's office as a deputy assigned to investigations. Lambert moved to the drug task force in 1999 and was promoted to sergeant in 2000.
Lambert was also the first law enforcement officer in Escambia County to be certified as a clandestine lab technician for taking down and cleaning up methamphetamine labs.
Lambert continued with the sheriff's office when Grover Smith was elected sheriff.
He was a lieutenant when the Flomaton Police Department's chief position came open.
"Sheriff Smith and I discussed it and I made the decision to go to Flomaton," Lambert said.
Lambert served as police chief in Flomaton from 2005 to 2008 while also maintaining his deputy sheriff status.
In 2008, Lambert returned to the sheriff's office as Sheriff Smith's chief deputy.
"In July, I'll start my 28th year in law enforcement," Lambert said. "This is what I've done most of my adult life. I've been a deputy sheriff my entire career. I'm raising children in Escambia County like everybody else and I genuinely care about the citizens of Escambia County."
Lambert said he feels his experience in all phases of law enforcement make him qualified to be the next sheriff.
"There's a lot more to being sheriff than going out and arresting folks," he said.
He's attended multiple classes from working basic crime scenes to homicide. He has training in animal control to narcotic trafficking.
Lambert also completed administrative classes, including the Southern Police Institute Chief Executive Leadership Class in Washington, D.C.
"I've been trained by the DEA, ATF, FBI, Secret Service and numerous state and local agencies," Lambert said.
Lambert is also a certified pilot and is certified as a SCUBA rescue diver.
"I've had a lot of training, but the main thing is working with people to make our county safe for everyone," Lambert said. "For most of my career I've been in administrative positions and have worked on budgets for sheriff's offices and police departments."
He has helped launch community oriented policies in the rural areas of the county like neighborhood watch programs to train people to become the eyes and ears for law enforcement.
He recently launched a program where he and other deputies go to churches to implement safety programs and train members of the congregation.
Lambert also said he will continue to have deputies in the schools and continue the DARE program if elected sheriff.
"The school resource officer program is very important," Lambert said. "If I'm elected I'll keep them in the schools to protect our children and our teachers."
Lambert said the simple fact of having a patrol car parked outside a school and having a deputy walking the halls is a great deterrent to problems.
He said he will also continue a program to monitor registered sex offenders across the county. He said currently two deputies are assigned to that task and check on sex offenders on a daily basis to make sure they are in compliance with their sentencing orders. He said because of that, many sex offenders have been arrested for violating the Sex Offender Notification Act.
He said another key to being sheriff is to stay on top of technology, and he was instrumental in having all deputies fit with body cameras. Deputies now have laptop computers and printers inside their patrol vehicles.
"This allows them to stay out in the community instead of having to come back to the office to do reports," Lambert said. "They can also print reports on scene and give them to victims."
"I'll continue to work with the county commission to make sure we have all the equipment we need to protect the citizens of Escambia County," Lambert said.
Under Lambert's direction, inmates are being used to pick up trash along county rights-of-way and recently began a program where inmates are out patching potholes on county roads.
"These things save the taxpayers money, but they also teach inmates about an honest day's work," he said. "We have some inmates in jail that have never had a real job. They won't be here forever and when they do return to society we want them to be productive citizens. It can be as simple as having them get up everyday at 7 a.m. to go to work."
He said operating a jail is expensive, but he's worked with Sheriff Smith to implement programs to ease the financial burden on the taxpayers.
"Something like the federal inmate program generates about $100,000 per month that goes directly to the county budget," he said. "I've worked hard to not only keep an allotted amount of federal inmates but to increase those numbers."
"For the past 20 years I've tried to do anything I could, within my power, to help the people of Escambia County," Lambert said. "I've always had an open-door policy and will continue that policy as sheriff. A lot of people already have my cell phone number and call me at all hours of the day and night, but that's what I'm paid for."
Lambert said if anyone needs him they can call him at 251-727-2575 or email him at firstname.lastname@example.com.
"I may not answer the phone when you call, but I promise you I'll call you back or come see you in person," Lambert said.
Lambert, his wife Shea and children attend Little Escambia Baptist Church in Flomaton. Lambert is also a member of the Brewton Rotary Club and the Flomaton Lions Club. They have one grandchild.
"I want Escambia County to be safe for your family and mine," Lambert said. "I'll do everything within my power to continue to make this county safe for everyone."

About our Junior Banded Events
Table Tennis the Way You Like It
Our Junior Banded Events are currently open to young people who live within East Sussex.
The aim of the events is to provide access to competitions outside of a players own
immediate area at a suitable level, thus building on a players confidence.
To enable this to occur all events are banded with players placed into an appropriate band
according to their current level of experience and ability. This results in some more close
and exciting matches for players. All events are group based to give maximum experience
All players are reuired to umpries matches in their group on a rota basis, however, in the
lower bands extra help is available .
Events are organised in Battle , Bexhill, Eastbourne and Rye where we work in partnership
with local clubs and other organisations to ireach as many young players as possible. We
understand that young players who have perhaps just started out are more likely to take part
in a local event in the initial stages as they are likely to feel more comfortable. Once
confidence builds they start to travel further afield.
As these events develop we aim to run an event for players from across Sussex leading to
the establishment of some 1 and 2 Star Open events in the coming years.
Any club or orgainsation within East Sussex who would be interested in working in
partnership with us to bring a Junior Banded Event to local juniors are welcome to contact
us to discuss an event.
During the 2016/17 season we aim to bring on a couple of new venues to the circuit
including an additional venue in Eastbourne and Bexhill. Plans are also being developed to
run a small event in Hastings.

We recently got to chat with Reza Izadi, DDS and founder/CEO of Denteractive Solutions Inc. This California company is using technology to change the way patients and dentists engage with each other, starting with their new app, Denteractive.
Launched in southern California just last week, Denteractive is a free mobile- and web-friendly dentist-patient communication platform where dental care professionals and patients can interact from any location. Among other functions, it allows patients to find a dentist by their dental problem or by location, navigate a dentist's practice information and contact a professional directly, and even schedule an appointment from within the app. Denteractive is designed to benefit both the patient and the dentist: for the patient, it boosts preventive care and overall health through education; for the dentist, the app promotes brand awareness and product exposure.
Here's what Izadi had to say about his vision for dental harmony, how his recent launch is going, and what's next for Denteractive:
DIQ: Can you tell us a little about the background of Denteractive's app? What did you see in the market that led you to create this app? When and how did this project begin?
RI: I have been in practice for 20 years now. My initial experiences in dental school instilled the importance of a personable approach to dentistry. In 1992, at age 18, I started my dental education at the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in San Francisco. The dean of our school at the time, Dr. Arthur Dugoni, quickly became my role model. Dr. Dugoni's vision was to promote the humanistic model to dental education and develop unique dental professionals who fully realize their potentials to better help their peers and communities.
Through my advanced training at University of Southern California and over the years, I have continued my growth as a person and a health care provider, and have always tried to find a balance in educating the public and delivering the most effective and personable care to my patients as possible. The response to this harmonized care has been remarkable in my specialty endodontics practice in Southern California. I have not only used this "humanistic" approach in direct patient care, but also with my peers and fellow dentists who I interact with on a daily basis.
What I saw in the market that motivated my efforts to build and promote Denteractive was definitely the need for more optimized public education and dental awareness, and an amazing need on the professional end to grow personable interactions and build a quality base of patients. As dentists, we need to keep in mind that better dental care is possible with improved education and better human connections. Dentistry is not only an art, science and a business—dentistry is about building relationships and meaningful bonds with people that we are teaching and healing.
The seeds for Denteractive were laid many years ago in dental school and over the 20 years of my practice. About five years ago, I started formulating my vision onto paper. The architecture for Denteractive was laid, but technology had to catch up. In early 2014, we broke ground on our professional efforts to build this platform and we have reached a momentous point by launching it July 8! Realizing our vision into Denteractive as a product has been made possible by our hard working and dedicated team. Mr. Adrien Abbasi, vice president of product, can attest to the true efforts that our amazing team has delivered with their superb knowledge of technology, business development, communications, philanthropy, and—most importantly—clinical dentistry!
DIQ: What sets this app apart from other similar apps or software?
RI: Our app is very focused to dentistry and is one of the few that has been made by a dentist for the enhancement of the dental profession, and for overall patient care and education. We allow for improved user experience for both core audiences. With Denteractive, patients are now close with dentists even before an office visit. Our mission is to build and connect quality patients with quality dentists, through a harmonized balance of education, communication tools and practice branding, and support.
DIQ: How have beta testers or immediate users (both dentists and patients) responded to the app so far? How is the launch going?
RI: The responses amongst dentist and beta users have been very positive. The texting feature and our treatment-tracking feature are definitely the most popular among users. Dentists also like the texting feature and the ability to choose their video call availability, as well as, the simplicity of our "hearts" review system based on authentic engagements. In the age of social media, it is clear that people need human connections and easy access to information in order to make better decisions and thrive. Our launch has been very smooth so far—we are releasing minor updates and adding features as we move forward. We are also being proactive in getting the word out through different channels to promote Denteractive, for public awareness and for the good of the dental community.
DIQ: When will Denteractive be available outside the southern California region?
RI: Our core efforts were started in southern California, where we launched on July 8. We have most of our network dentists in Orange County and Los Angeles. We are in the process of adding more in all regions of southern California and the San Francisco Bay Area in the coming months. More cities will follow. We have the architecture and capability to add any dentist in the country and have strategic plans to implement our service for everyone.
DIQ: What are Denteractive's future goals? Any updates or enhancements to the app that you have in mind, or any additional products Denteractive may create in the future?
RI: We are developing several products as we speak. They are mainly to enhance free public dental and health care awareness. Also, we are working on professional continuing education platforms and ways to facilitate secure and effective communications between patients and dentists, as well as between dental professionals. Our platform will be one of the leading resources for online dental education, focused oral health information, and—most uniquely—a real-time forum that provides one-on-one education and collaboration tools between dentists and the public.
As education provides the most important pathway to preventive care, and, secondarily, improves the public's overall health, we have plans to further collaborate with dental schools and higher learning institutions to better expose developing dentists to our cause and help provide free education for the public.

Economy—overview:Argentina benefits from rich natural resources, a highly literate population, an export-oriented agricultural sector, and a diversified industrial base. However, when President Carlos MENEM took officein 1989, the country had piled up huge external debts, inflation had reached 200% per month, and output was plummeting. To combat the economic crisis, the government embarked on a path of tradeliberalization, deregulation, and privatization. In 1991, it implemented radical monetary reforms which pegged the peso to the US dollar and limited the growth in the monetary base by law to the growth inreserves. Inflation fell sharply in subsequent years. The Mexican peso crisis produced capital flight, the loss of banking system deposits, and a severe, but short-lived, recession in 1995; a seriesof reforms to bolster the domestic banking system followed. Real GDP growth recovered strongly, reaching almost 9% in 1997. In 1998, increasing investor anxiety over Brazil, its largest tradingpartner, produced the highest domestic interest rates in more than three years and slowed growth to 4.3%. Despite the relatively high level of growth in recent years, double-digit unemployment rates havepersisted, largely because of rigidities in Argentina's labor laws

Hello Brigit's Flame [waves]
I have a special post for you today! Saturday I attended the Wizard World Comic Convention and sat in on a storyteller's workshop with Michael Golden.
It was only a forty-five-minute seminar, but the venue was intimate, maybe thirty people in all. Mr. Golden was patient with the enquiring minds and seemed to give deliberate and sincere answers. There were aspects of his advice that I disagree with, but I definitely took away some valuable tips I intend to try as I continue to work towards completing my novel.
Michael Golden kicked things off with the advice to keep it simple. As creative people, we are inclined to elaborate, and to describe and craft complex worlds of wonder and grace (my words). But if you want to be a commercial success you need to keep it simple because the consumers of your product don't want your epic brain child, they want to be entertained a bit are secretly hoping for explosions.
Do I even need to tell you that this was the first point I disagreed on?
Yes. It was his first point. Miss Manners shushing me in my head was really the only thing that kept me from walking out. By the end of his talk, I had come to terms with what he said, though. It's part of why literary agents advise you to know your market. I believe that we have a large population of people who want the dumbed down-BOOMed up version of what many storyteller's have to offer. Do you want to be a commercial success as a writer? Or do you want to write for a smaller audience and share your imagination with like-minded individuals for the love of the story? Will you be marketable to a large publishing house if you go for option two? Possibly not. If you go with option one appealing to the TL;DR crowd? Sadly, this option is more likely to get you published.
Even if we want to never sell-out as artists, we will have to accept that compromises will be made, self-publishing not excluded. Finding an audience of 100 or 200 versions of yourself may never happen. The writer may create the work, but without readers there is no energy. We need to build up inertia to keep our writing going.
Michael Golden went on to talk about the elements of writing and singled out plot-driven tales as being better suited to short stories and character-driven stories being better suited to longer works. He actually said character-driven were his favorite type of stories as a reader and editor. Did I mention that he is the man who created the character Rogue of the X-Men? Definitely supports his statement as truth.
For the creator, he suggested a technique I have tried and not been as consistent with as I should have. I'm going to put the time in with Adrift to see if I can avoid the mess I made of the first iteration. RicoChey has tried a version of this and is having great success in moving through her novel. I warn you, though, this is super high-tech stuff.
He described buying a huge package of assorted color Post-its and assigning a purpose to each color. Gold is your climax, blue for character development, pink for plot, green for setting and environment. Then you write summary information on each Post-it and stick it on the wall. As more information goes up you sort through the pieces and reorder them until you have a complete line that leads to your climax. That's when you write the scene and smooth all of those pieces together with good writing. If you don't have a wall to clear enough to use as your storyboard, there are several programs that can offer the same function.
Another recommendation from Mr. Golden that I intend to try, possibly today, is something I have heard before. It took sitting through a lecture by someone I didn't quite agree with to finally have the lightbulb come on. I honestly think this is the element I have been missing for the last seven years.
Write the ending first.
It's such a simple piece of advice. I finally realize this is why I can't finish a long work of fiction (and some of the short stories I've started). I begin from the beginning, quite often from an impression or a line of dialog. A few months ago I started writing a short story because I wanted to write a new fairy tale with modern sensibilities. I never finished it because I was writing for a concept instead of telling a good story. I had no idea how it ended even after writing about 3,000 words. I spent a week running various ending scenarios by myself and never landing on one that felt right.
I wrote Adrift from the same remove all those years ago — 165,000 words and no ending in sight. I knew where the characters were going, literally, but in my minds eye I never saw them arrive. In a way, I'm writing my reboot with the same blind spot. I intend to change that. And here's another piece of advice from Michael Golden that I realized was missing from my work:
Know why you are telling the story.
Writing the climax or ending first allows you to not only see how it ends but choose a path to a certain destination. As I was driving away from the Con, I thought about Adrift and why I am so intent on writing this story. Originally I had a memoir in my head of a woman who was leaving Earth and she was saying goodbye as the big blue ball receded into the background. When I started writing, she became someone who was lonely and isolated on a ship by herself and Earth became a future version of itself that had been warred over, used up, and was ready for the trash heap. In contrast, I threw in a character of alien origins who was upbeat and came from a lush planet where the people were more connected to nature biologically and therefore, more careful with it. As the writer I knew the two would one day meet, but both had a long journey ahead in getting to that point. But that's not a why. Am I writing this story just to amuse myself? Is that enough?
I doubt Mr. Golden's instruction to "Know why you are telling the story" was a prompt for some large moral or environmental message. He likely meant, know where you want to leave it. Write your ending first. We writers know that it isn't chiseled in stone, there will be fluxations that ripple down to the end we will have to adjust for, but if you know why you are telling the story when you do make those ripples they won't add up to a huge course change. I'm going to play with this concept some more over the next few weeks and see if I can come up with a purpose that's more than, "because I want to".
Back to the advice. On character development, Mr. Golden had a few data points he threw out and spoke on briefly. Mothers and older brothers make great villains. I chuckled inwardly at this because most of my stories tend to have a mother who is, at the very least, part of the problem. In Adrift, there is a morally questionable mother who will make some poor choices that will help lead to the destruction of an entire planet…so I can check that one off as done. But I don't think he meant literal mothers so much as figures who project a mothering personae. Although he did say the reason they make great villains is because they love you. And, I would add, for most of your life they have ultimate power.
He went on to share how Stan Lee used to dedicate one full page to Doctor Doom's speech to the people of Latveria on how he was looking out for them and only had their best interests in mind just before he blew up a whole village for not doing something his way. (And OMG I just realized that Bashar al-Assad is Doctor Doom…without the uber-awesome comic bookness, what a terrible adaptation.)
What else did he say about characters? O, one of those moments I hugely disagreed with him. Mr. Golden believes a bad guy should be a bad guy and that anti-heroes are terrible characters. He used X-Men for a few examples. In Michael Golden's world, Wolverine is a murderer and should not be confused with a hero. I wish I had thought to ask how he felt about the tangent of Rogue having such a huge crush on Wolverine. He also responded to some questions about Magneto's story arcs and the aspects where they make him out to be a sympathetic villain who is just a product of his experience. He said he fought against those threads. Magneto is a bad guy who chose his path with full knowledge and forethought. Michael Golden even called Batman a psychopath. At a Comicon! Is Rogue starting to make a little more sense to you now?
Okay…aside from the effrontery of dissing beloved comic book heroes he did offer up a last piece of advice that I thought was truly helpful — pay attention to everything around you. Specifically, watch what people do and listen to how they talk. What do they say? What are their hands doing? How do they stand or sit? How does a dog move or behave? What can you glean about personalities from these observations (including the dog)? When we write we speak from the mouths of many characters, but we need the twitches and shuffles to really show who they are and distinguish them from each other.
His suggestions were not limited to people. He proposed we familiarize with the basics of things like how a car operates, then we can use the knowledge to describe how our spaceship operates. I'm not retelling it right, but that was one and "If you know how a dog moves, then you know how an alien moves." It's one of those concepts you can get if you squint your eyes and waffle your shoulders up and down.
Overall, I'm glad Miss Manners kept me in my chair when I jumped to the conclusion that he had nothing to teach me. Still…that Wolverine thing…O! and he said there is never a need for a prologue. Prologues are my favorite bits 😦
#gowrite in darkness! We have a great prompt and an approaching deadline. Ready your Post-its and try writing your ending first.

Trever Berg, David Hudleson, Ryne Nelson and J.J. Smith played key roles in leading Basic High to the state baseball championship in 2016, the first for the school since 1987.
All four are back with Basic's summer program, the Southern Nevada Blue Sox, after a year in college and looking to continue to make memories.
With Berg, Hudleson, Nelson and Smith joining the core of Basic's 2017 state title team, the Blue Sox are looking for a national championship in the American Legion World Series, which begins Thursday in Shelby, North Carolina.
"This group was special, special from two years ago when they won the first state title," Blue Sox coach Scott Baker said. "This group has been so together and united as a family. I've been very lucky to have a group like this, for sure."
The Blue Sox (54-7) play Creighton Prep (Nebraska) in their first game at 10 a.m. Thursday.
Nelson, who plays at Oregon, was named the Most Valuable Player of the Western Regional tournament. He's the team's shortstop and No. 3 hitter and was the winning pitcher in the regional title game.
"He is our MVP; he's everything for us," Baker said of Nelson. "I'm very fortunate and lucky that he's giving back to the program and wants to be part of it."
Nelson is batting .503 with four homers and 71 RBIs this summer. On the mound, he's 4-1 with a 1.43 ERA. Baker said he'd rely on Berg, Nelson and Shane Spencer as starters in the tournament. Nelson can't pitch until Friday because he threw more than 75 pitches in the region final, but the rest of the team's staff is available.
Berg (4-0, 2.01) and Spencer (7-1, 0.54) have pitched well in the postseason, and there is depth beyond the three starters.
"Our bullpen is extremely polished, a lot of experience," Baker said. "We're pretty deep, pitching wise."
The team also has a deep lineup, led by UNLV-bound first baseman Jack Wold. Wold is batting .508 with 21 homers and 114 RBIs.
"Jack executes with the best of them," Baker said. "He's just kind of special in that four hole for us. Jack, he does everything possible to get that run in."
The World Series features two four-team pools, with the top two in each pool advancing to Monday's semifinals. The Blue Sox play Shrewsbury (Massachusetts) at 4:30 p.m. on Friday before an off day on Saturday. They finish pool play against Midland (Michigan) at 9 a.m. on Sunday. Sunday's game will be broadcast on ESPNU.
"I love the format," Baker said. "One of the reasons is just the full experience here of four or five days of the festivities and the whole thing that American Legion gives you. When it was double elimination, if you got knocked out early, it was a quick trip."
And Baker also loves the Saturday off day.
"In the big scheme of things, I think we got the perfect off day," Baker said. "Now our Sunday game we can kind of know exactly where we're at with pool play and how to get into the top two."

Some of the folks who work at Entertainment Weekly look like normal people. They aren't want-to-be starlets who pretend to like Battlestar Galactica because it's somehow trendy. These people are my people and they really do like what any decent person would like (although, I think they did say negative things about The Fountain, but they can't be perfect).
They actually believe in the complete logic behind the absurdity of wanting Joss Whedon to be interviewed by the fiber arts community (specifically the crochet part). And if I knew folks at EW, I would make them a hat.
And my sister is a bigger geek than she would ever admit to being. Guess who arrived first for the IMAX screening of The Dark Knight at 7:30 last night? Guess who wanted to be there by 4:00 PM? Not even the folks who look like geeks were there at 5:30 PM. But let me add, the Watchmen trailer on IMAX is glorious.
Oh, and, why does the new Harry Potter trailer just not do it for me? I want to see the movie, but that trailer doesn't make me want to buy a ticket to the new Mummy movie, which we all know we were supposed to do just to see the trailer big. And why's Ginny in a robe? Also, why's Ron on the floor? (I should probably re-read the book.)
On a separate note: off to Denver today to be bitter about losing my weekend to work and training.

Donald alighted from his car, and strolled towards the café door. He stopped abruptly in his tracks, and thought about what he was about to do and sighed. " I left my job at the office to come and see a woman! gosh, I am certainly going nuts" he mused.He turned back, wanting to enter his car and drive back to the office when Titi stepped out of the café. Their eyes met and Titi took her eyes off immediately and walked on. Donald walked up to her.
" excuse me"
" Yes, what can I do for you sir?" she replied professionally.
" I was just wondering where you were going, If you don't mind, I could give you a ride." he offered
she looked at him, surprised and then replied " I'm sorry, I don't take rides in a stranger's car"
Donald bit his lower lip. " I'm not a stranger, miss. I am a client at your café, and you came to my office this morning, and I did not treat you this rude. "What do you really want, Mr. Donald ? "
I want us to be friends. get to know each other" he replied
" I'm sorry, I am not interested" she said emphatically and walked away.
" Titi, I just want us to be friends, is that too much to ask for?
" Look, Mr. Donald, she faced him, I know your type, jumping from one ass to another. I am not that kind of woman, if you are looking for some one to lay, go to a brothel !!. she retorted.
Donald was stunned. He had never been this embarrassed by a lady before. What was he doing? he was the executive director at a leading oil company for Christ sake, and he was here taking insults from a mere cafe attendant" . He dismissed those thoughts and followed her. " Wait, listen. he ran after her, till he caught up with her. I'm not that type, Titi , I'm not. I'm just asking us to be friends." he said, his eyes locked into hers pleadingly. Titi looked at him, here was Donald Ehis, one of the biggest men on the island, begging. She imagined what her roommate, Tania's reaction would be, when she tells her about today's happenings. She smiled, looked up at Donald and replied " Alright. If that's what you want. We are already friends.
" Really? I mean just like that ? he asked happily. Thanks Titi, can we do dinner at your café tonight?
"er, No, we can't. She replied.
"okay, we could go to some other restaurant; domino for instance, please? "
okay, deal"
"deal then, perfect, cool. I would come and pick you up myself, by six thirty. how about that?
" fine by me" she replied.
"so where are you heading to?mind if I take you there myself ? Donald offered.
"There is absolutely no need. It's just by the corner ."
"Alright, take care till six-thirty'
' "you too" Titi replied.
Donald felt like he had won a contract and at the same time felt like a young boy who just acquired a new toy. When he walked toward his car, he felt like a huge load had been lifted off his chest. Clearly he was lovestruck. six o'clock hit the dial and he closed officially from work. He called his driver Segun. "You won't be driving me home tonight. we'll see tomorrow morning. "okay sir". Donald removed his blazer he had hung in his office and put it on. He smiled warmly at his gateman , walked to the garage, entered his car and zoomed off to Bella's café.
It was six twenty and Titi had finished her work for the day. She put away the record books, removed her company's uniform and slipped into her casual wear.
"where are you off to? Bola, her co-worker queried "
I got a date" she replied. Donald walked in shortly. Bola gasped, and winked at Titi.
" hey"
"hey" she replied.
" how was work today? "
" fine, yours? " couldn't have been better. are you set to go?
" yea, I'm. she answered. They walked out of the café to his car, he opened the door, she stepped in, and they zoomed off. "have you been to domino eatery before? he asked driving. " Yes I have. I went once with my roommate."
" roommate ? you don't stay alone?
"no, I don't I stay with a friend of mine, the rent cost over here is too high for me to live alone."
" so welcome to the island, how are you enjoying it? he asked smiling.
"It's cool. I notice, they club and party a lot over here than the mainland. I don't club though.
"you don't? that sounds boring. so what do you do with your Friday nights? he quizzed.
" what nights were meant for- I sleep of course" she replied.
" It seems you are the religious type."
"not really. I don't consider myself one though. I'm just a believer in God.
"Yep, we are here" They had reached Domino's restaurant. It was the prime restaurant in Lagos and was frequented mostly by foreigners who resided in Lagos.
"Welcome ." the gate man greeted when they walked in.
"Thank you" they replied.
"so make yourself comfortable, Titi, what would you like to eat?
"I'm not really hungry; I would just take something light"
Donald motioned to the waiter. "get us ice cream and cup cakes"
" at your service sir" The waiter replied.
" so let's start with you, can I get to know you" Donald asked looking up to her.
" you know me already" she replied.
" yea. I know you are a lady that works at my friend café. I know your name is Titi, that's all I know.
The waiter returned.
Thank you" Titi said. Well that's all to know about me at least for now. lets talk about you. The first time I saw this face was on a magazine. Forbes magazine named you among the 40 young entrepreneurs to watch"
oh, that," Donald chuckled, I don't know how they rated that, but I certainly didn't deserve to be on the list"
" Really?, I don't think so. You are an executive at leading oil company , and owner of a large online retail store.
" seems you know much about me already, what about you? I know you are an attendant, but what were you doing before that. schooling?
"I was a model"
wow, so what happened, why did you quit?
" well, I'm just past it. I will be turning twenty six this year and in the harsh world of modeling, twenty four upwards is a little bit old. the eighteen year olds are just all over the place.
"That's true and they could do anything to strut the runway" Donald added.
" well, its kinda normal. I wouldn't have left modeling if not for some reasons though.
"reasons like" Donald inquired.
" so many things happened in the…. she stopped. This man was leading her out of her shell, making her say what under normal circumstances she wouldn't have, while he just sat there feasting on her body with his eyes. but what could she have done, it was like a force emanating out him surrounded her, drawing her close to him, making it seem like she had known him for ages. she had to fight it, she had to leave.
" you cut your sentence short, why? he asked
"nothing, I think I need to get going. I got to go home." she said standing up
"so soon? you aren't through with your pancakes."
" I'll take them home"
alright I will drop you, just give me a minute. she walked outside. He went to the counter and paid the bills and met her standing beside the car. she was stunning. why didn't she apply for the miss Nigeria beauty pageant, he mused. that would certainly be a question for another day. He walked straight to her intently, and with a courage he didn't know where it came from, grabbed her lips, and kissed her. Titi wanted to shove him away, but it seemed an unseen force froze her, making her lose momentary consciousness as she melted in his lip onslaught.
IT seems Titi might have fallen in love, but a family voodoo that kills any man that tries to marry her might be a stumbling block. also, a dirty secret of Donald is brought to light .. how will these two love birds defeat these forces? join me on the trail of "tea or coffee next week, …. enjoy my poems and stay tight till then…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

By: Pratishtha Malhotra
The release of the film is done and dusted and the man who takes the burden of each and every film on his shoulders so heavily is finally relieved. The year has opened big for Shah Rukh Khan with RAEES and the VFX wing of Red Chillies getting honored in Paris and he is grateful. He is exhausted but the smile on his face never wears out. I meet with him at Mehboob Studio to chat up about the sweet smell of success.
Isn't this the sweet smell of the calm after the thunderous storm. Are you relieved?
When someone has been working for a very long time, what happens is that they are already in the minds of the people. I meet mothers and they tell me that their second child also loves me. If you look at all my films historically, they open very well as a lot of people come very excited to see the film. Now that causes two problems for me personally. When so many people are coming to watch my film, I hope and wish that I can give most people what they have come for. And secondly, if I am doing the same thing again and again, I start having problems with that as an actor. You know, if you give the audience something new and it doesn't work like FAN, I get heartbroken, not discouraged. But if you are trying to do something new and it works, the happiness just doubles. I am in the business for a very long time so I can sense the fact that this is the film which more people are liking. So I am kind of relieved from that sense of responsibility. Main Khush Hoon, Ki Itne Logon Ko Khushi De Saka… Before the release of a film, I keep sitting on the black sofa at my house… my family knows what I am going through that time. I keep sitting on it and don't do anything… no phone, no TV and only meet my kids that time. So they can make out what zone am I in at the moment. It's like I have taught my son for his mathematics exam and when the result is coming, I keep thinking. I had taught him, I hope sab theek thaak ho jaye … Even if he makes a mistake, I feel that I must have not taught him correctly. So it is that feeling that I go through. Thankfully, that feeling is over now as the reports with RAEES are good now.
Amitabh Bachchan has been praising you… Isn't that the ultimate stamp of approval?
It is wonderful when someone we have grown up watching says, " Tumhara Gussa Mujhe Bohot Acha Laga" because he is the Angry Young Man… actually, he is the Every Man…! I felt very nice when he tweeted because it is an ode to stars of that genre, Amitji being the foremost. I have grown up watching Dharamji, Amitji, Rishi Kapoor saab, Shashi Kapoor…. so when someone out of these people praises something that I have done, I feel that I must have done something right. Ab Mujhe Yakeen Ho Gaya Hai Ki RAEES Theek Thaak Hai..
The year has begun with fireworks for you with RAEES romping in good numbers to Red Chillies's VFX wing being honored in Paris. Also, these 25 years have been golden…
I think it has been a great life. Whenever I pray for someone, whether it is my children or people that I feel closeto. I always tell them that I hope they all get my life. Professionally it has been fantastic. You can have few ups and downs. I don't think I have had very many downs as I have been very fortunate. It has been a good life! Strangely, what my life will be remembered will be by the work I do. Everything else will take second set to it. I really appreciate the fact that my family understands it. I am a public figure, I have to do what I have to do. Even if I don't take my problems home, my family has to bear them. My daughter calls me once or twice a week, my son calls me once in two weeks but in the last four days as the film during the release of the film, my children have called me multiple times in a day and strangely I missed the calls as I wasn't expecting them. I know they will just call to ask how I am or to tell where they are but I know in their mind they know that Papa's film is coming and we need to be with him. I think it has been a wonderful life and hopefully, I have enough strength mentally and physically to keep doing some interesting stuff. I am in that position, in that mindset and have some really wonderful filmmakers coming forward. If you work for so many years, it is very seldom that you have the new breed of directors still very excited to work with you. It is a good space for me that I can be in cinema of their language and still try to bring something new with my experiences of 25 years.
You started your career with negative parts and now that you play one after many years, what has changed?
When I was younger, I was very good at action because I was a gymnast, runner and was physically very fit. Unfortunately, no one gave me many action parts to play, so I did BAAZIGAR and DARR to begin with. Now, maybe it is too late. But whatever film I get, whatever I am called upon to do so I do yaar! It is not that I have proven with RAEES that I can do action. Rather, we all have proven with RAEES that substance and popularity can go hand in hand. This film required action but Imtiaz's film has no action. So whatever the film desires, I would like to do and do to the best of my capability. But on set, I really enjoy doing action…It's fun!
You've always maintained that you enjoy being evil on screen and despite the blood and gore in RAEES, one never cringes. As an artist, are you creatively satisfied with being evil now?
You're right about the action part. There are some gruesome bits in the film, like the meat fight by virtue of the location itself. While doing it and even while watching it I was a little like, 'How is it turning to be?'Rahul, myself and most of my team when I am working with them, I do insist upon them that our film is not meant to be in that zone of gore. It is a popular film. I think children can still take it but I can be wrong, maybe you should not show them so much violence but then there is a certification. But I design it for women. The parkour fight in the film, the riot sequence… the music is geared in a way that it somehow becomes more lyrical than the intensity. In the scene, I am hitting people with a metal rod. But instead of highlighting that, what we do is highlight the music which makes you feel that it is poetic in its way. I do take care of that for sure. I will never do action which is hurtful beyond a level- personally, I don't mind watching it as a viewer. I'll tell you something, even now for Malaysia we had to cut so much of our film. In London, we cannot show some of the blood coming out so what to do. What I feel is that if you are making a popular film like RAEES, to take care of it and I don't think it takes away from creativity. I think whenever there is a compromise situation, if you think creatively, it is better. You can think of a nicer way of doing the same thing.
25 years later, does your stardom ever reflect on the material that you are making? Do you feel you need to tone it down to represent your popularity?
If you have been working for so long, then the responsibility on you increases. I always say that love is unconditional and I believe in it genuinely and this will sound strange. When I go back home after failure or success, the love is there as it is unconditional. So I feel that people love me so much that if by mistake I don't do something very good, they will still love me. They know that there is no selfish reason behind it, but I was just trying and when I will do something correctly, they will love me the same. That is why I have strength to try out certain things. I feel a lot of pain when something doesn't go right especially when I decide to do something different like FAN.

Grade: A+ (4.55 out of 5)
Top100: #39
Beerface: Yes
I've had 2008, 2009 bottles, and the 2009 on tap. Every single time it blows my mind. The vanilla version is sort of like drinking a unicorn, so the regular version is maybe… horses running through fields of poppies?
Either way, the rich and dark appearance pours nearly pitch black with little head. It stays with even less, sitting there in your glass like pitch. Great legs though. And the smell is unbelievable. Bourbon fills the nose. Also there's chocolate and coffee. The taste is out of this world, and probably the best part about it. Dark chocolate, coffee, figs, malts, and only a hint of bourbon in the taste up front. The rest of the swallow you're left to remember it by smell. The booziness is more and more present as it warms.
Without question it fills the mouth, and this one is as drinkable as you can handle the 13% abv. My first time having it I walked like an Egyptian to 80's music for a couple hours afterwards. Second time pretended to be Russian and wore an aviator hat in the middle of September. Enjoy this… responsibly.

Communists think they can force "regime change" of "fascist" Trump administration
Alt-left agitators are planning to stage mass riots in major cities on November 4 during which they hope to instigate a "civil war" that will lead to the "regime change" of the Trump administration.
Demonstrations are planned for cities across the country, including New York City, Austin, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
A long diatribe written by Andy Zee posted on the Revolutionary Communist Party website makes it clear that the events, which leftists hope will attract "millions," are not planned to be just ordinary protests.
"There is a break with what have been the norms we confront, and to deal with this there must be a break with the "normal" ways people seek change from government. The normal forms of petition and protest DO…

My angry interlocutor in Birmingham, having suffered quite some laughter from the audience, stomped out angrily from the temple. On his way out he saw Padma and my two PhD students who had come along with us, and were watching the proceedings with deep interest.
He ranted to my PhD students who were there: NOT LEARNING FROM AN ACHARYA IS LIKE TRYING TO GET A PHD WITHOUT AN ADVISOR!
Padma remarked to me, grinning from ear to ear: "Wow! You made him REALLY MAD!" My student, deeply steeped in formal Sanatana Dharma training in his childhood to the point where he claims to be tired of the "preaching', chuckled: "if you are trained by an Acharya, the first thing you must learn is not to get angry when you lose a debate. Our whole tradition is one of debate!"
Very interesting questions. Let me take the PhD one first. A big difference is that in a PhD program, we may have a guide, but there is a reason why people sign up in a good university to get a PhD, not at the advisor's hut. It is to benefit from the Universe of knowledge avenues that are available in a University. One learns far more "through the eyes of one's classmates" (as one my ex-Dept. Chairs taught me as he demolished my argument on why small classes were better than big classes) than from the Advisor. So it is quite wrong to ascribe all learning in the PhD program to one advisor. My students would laugh out loud if one suggested that they learn more from me than I from them.
There is of course a second difference. At least where I have been privileged to guide PhDs, I get to select them with extreme care. The selection is through a process that demands excellence. Those whom I select are, and I can say this with pride, demonstrated through quantitative, objective metrics, to be the best in our Institution, and the Institution these days, particularly our School, shows up at the very top of the US News and World Report rankings. So what makes these students different? Sure, they are all "talented" and "academically excellent". But the best of them are selected because they think independently. The most important metric for a PhD to graduate, as my own thesis advisor used to say, is that they can disagree with their advisor and prove their point, proving that they can stand up on their own in intellectual reasoning and (in our case) problem-solving. Clearly, someone who just parrots what they memorized from some "Guru" as Divine Truth, and aims just to get that diploma to hide under, do not meet this criterion. They would not survive a month in our research group.
Now for the first question. Back when I was in 4th grade, I was in an Islamic School. There were 16 girls and 8 boys in our class, which made for a horrifying environment. The Majority was always terrorizing the Minority, trying to get us in trouble with Teacher at every single opportunity, bless their dear vindictive souls. Competitiveness seemed uppermost in their minds.
As the only non-Muslim in the class (pretty-much the whole school!) I was given the clear freedom to do whatever I wanted during their Islam classes. However, as any red-blooded elementary school denizen would know, sitting around alone is absolutely no fun at all, so I used to go and stand around listening to what they were saying.
One day the class was outdoors in the beautiful mountain weather of central Sri Lanka, the deep blue sky overlooking green paddy fields and the (inviting, muddy, but deserted and out of bounds) soccer field. We stood in a circle around the Maulavi as he lectured. After a while, perhaps sensing that his audience had mentally drifted off, he stopped and asked a question. The class just blinked at him. When no one spoke up, I raised my hand, and answered the question, and the Maulavi smiled and commended me for getting it right, and gently wondered what the rest of the class was doing.
IMMEDIATELY one of my dear Majority Gender friends protested, in a rare departure from the usual genteel Rules of Combat: "Narayanan cannot answer that! He is not a Muslim!"
Shocked, embarrassed silence. Then the Maulavi gathered his wits and spent the rest of the lecture hour lecturing my angry classmate, with her reddening cheeks and gathering tears, and the whole class, about how wrong that was.
All real Gurus have always taught SIMPLICITY and welcomed all learners too. And I am proud to have learned a little from a wide spectrum of such Gurus. My parents who insisted on daily evening prayer before a lighted lamp every day, in a land where we were surrounded by those not of our faith. My siblings. My friends and colleagues. My teachers in school and college. My dear little classmates, who eventually presented me with an Autograph book asking me never to forget them – and how could I? Their Maulavi. Their Indonesian Headmaster who insisted on respecting my beliefs and protected my freedom while welcoming me. Once I got into a (fair) fight with his son, where I was terrified to get into any fight with him, until he goaded me with insults that no 4-th grader can tolerate, and which ended with said son going home bawling and in tears. I lived in terror for the next few days, until the HM came by, called me aside, patted me on the head and quietly thanked me for teaching his son a much-needed lesson. Back in India, my upbringing in a deeply traditional ancestral home, surrounded by the most deeply religious Brahman community, not 100 yards from the Thekke Mathom, most hoary school of Vedic education in southwest India. Swami Ranganathanandaji's 1-hour lecture that gave me a lifetime of assurance. The numerous Conversionists who asked me if I wasn't on a path to disappointment at the doors of Heaven which were open only to those who were Born Again. Their preachers who screamed: "And WHY do the Heathen Rage?" causing all the Congregation to turn around and look at me in curiosity. My unknown interlocutors on various Internet fora who sharpened my understanding under the merciless anvil of no-holds-barred debate. And then my professors in colleges both in India and the USA who taught me objective evaluation of concepts, and most of all, yes, my professor, steeped in the Vedas himself, who gave me the "Upa Nishad" of explaining the central core structure of the Vedas, with the encouraging declaration:
"This is all there is to it."

80s teen movies were amazing – there was an arc-load of awful, but there were a huge number of really successful movies. Yes, we all know John Hughes and his perfectly placed finger on the pulse of the 80s teen, but I'm talking about Heathers. Released in 1988, it follows Veronica as she tries to get in with the most popular girls in school – the Heathers. Think Mean Girls, just darker. Much darker. And better. I'm not knocking Mean Girls. It's super enjoyable, but Heathers won my heart when I was young and in my I ❤ Christian Slater phase. I would watch everything he was in – even Kuffs.
So, the movie evolves from bitchy friends into Veronica meeting bad boy J.D. – who clearly needs a metric ton of therapy – and the two of them deciding to get back at the mean girls by offing them. I do not mean this metaphorically. They literally kill the head Heather by feeding her a glass of draino. Then they off some football jocks. And they stage them all as suicides. Suddenly, suicide is the new cool thing and everyone is trying it. There's even a song. Eventually, they have to take the next step – bombing the school. Sounds heavy, right? The underlying content absolutely is, but the movie itself is extremely funny.
It's full of great outfits, weird music, and a whole bunch of shit they'd never get into a movie with today's standards. The whole thing would be too offensive. School shootings/attacks are too close to the surface–These are terrible, awful things. They should not happen. But by using humour in a serious way, the movie actually opens doors for conversation. Slater did this again with Pump Up The Volume. It was kind of his niche for a while.
How this movie weighs up if you don't have the nostalgia factor, I don't know. But you should just go ahead and watch it. If for no other reason than to spark you love of croquet.

If you watched UFC Fight Night 27 in August, you might recall that the preliminary card scrap between Abel Trujillo and Roger Bowling ended in a wee bit of controversy. The bout was declared a no contest, after the ref ruled that a knee from Trujillo hit Bowling in the head while he was technically down. Bowling couldn't continue (he had also taken a pretty stiff follow punch), and replays indicated the knee might not have been illegal after all.
So, as a result of the controversial ending, and the fact neither man seemed too pleased with the other afterwards, Trujillo and Bowling will reported;y fight again at UFC on FOX 9. The card will take place December 14th in Sacramento, California.
Prior to UFC FN 27, Trujillo (10-5) was dominated by Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 160, and lost by unanimous decision. "Killa" had won five straight fights before the bout, which included a stoppage win over Marcus LeVesseur at UFC on FOX 5 last December.
Bowling (11-4), meanwhile, is in a must win situation, as the Strikeforce vet is winless in three bouts and is coming off losses to Tarec Saffiedine and Anthony Njokuani. Prior to that "Relentless" earned back-to-back wins over Jerron Peoples and Brandon Saling.
UFC on FOX 9 will be headlined by a lightweight tilt between champion Anthony Pettis and Josh Thomson. It should be a fun night.

I usually write these late at night, which explains why I am so mean.
So a date that I was reminded of today was with a guy I worked with. Yeah, I know... don't do that. But he was a nice guy. Oh wait.. before I forget to tell you.... "Flirt & Convert" does NOT work. Not my best moment.
I was kind of getting the vibe that this guy liked me, and we started hanging out a bit. He was decently good looking, had a fab body (I'm shallow sometimes) and a nice car. That he bragged about all the time. Like, every time I got into it. Anyhow, one day we went to the ledge grounds to splash in the pool. It's not a big pool but hey, it's all we have for free outdoor entertainment. It's really a glorified kiddy-pool that kids and homeless people pee in and bathe in. We had some fun and then went to get a bite to eat at Taco Bell. Yes, I eat that slop and I love it. But now that I've given up all carbs, fats, sugar and starches I eat diet sawdust. Anyhow, there we were. Eating tacos. He was REALLY into eating well and fitness, and he made some comment that the food was fattening. Then he said "You know, you have a nice body now, but if you gain any more weight I won't be interested in you anymore."
My jaw dropped to the floor.
I made up my mind then and there to splice a photo of my face onto a really fat woman and give it to him for Christmas. Or better yet, add him in and make it a Christmas card and send it to all our friends and family. Anyhow.
I decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, because he was rather awkward, and we went back to his house. Might I remind you that he wasn't a Christian, and that flirt and convert never work? Ok then. So his roommate is using the living room and I don't think they got along very well, so he's like "Hey I just bought new bedroom furniture, want to see it?" I'm not sure if this is a "line" or not, but I was thinking in my mind there BETTER be freaking new furniture in there or I'm leaving. I mean, we're friends and not dating, so there was no reason for him to think he's getting anywhere in my business, and in this case I made a mad dash for the desk chair that sat one person only! Hahahahhaha.
Three things:
1.) Yes, new furniture. But he was too cheap to buy an IKEA mattress to fit into his IKEA bed-frame, so he put his old mattress in it and it was slopping over one side and definitely not level. Kind of hilarious.
2.) HE HAD A STACK OF SELF-HELP BOOKS ON HIS NIGHTSTAND. Buddy, did you not think to put those away before you brought a girl to your room?
3.) He brought out a guitar and started singing to me. This is where I lost it, and was like... it's time to go.
Needless to say... we remained friends. And then I quit my job and never saw him again.
So there you go.
