Victor Umeh of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) who won last week's senatorial elections in Anambra state has been sworn into office as the senator representing Anambra central.
Willie Obiano, governor of Anambra state, and members of the state House of Assembly were in the upper chamber to witness the swearing-in of Umeh on Thursday.
In December 2015, Uche Ekwunife of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was sacked by the Appeal court following an appeal brought to it by Umeh.
The court ordered a rerun election which took place on Saturday.
The polls held in seven local government areas; Njikoka, Awka north, Idemili south, Dunukofia, Awka south, Anaocha and Idemili north.
Umeh polled 64, 878 votes, roundly defeating the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate who came second with 975 votes . The Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA) came third with 116 votes.
Anambra Central Senatorial district had been without a representative for close to two years now.

A quick test of a VERY old 16mm Vistascope anamorphic adapter grafted onto my Panasonic GF1.
Sorry for the crappy quality and shakiness of the footage. I didn't have my makeshift steady-cam on me at the time
The footage was taken in AVCHD mode in extremely low light conditions. The adapter seems to reduce the amount of light by at least a stop or two, so taking shots in these sort of lighting conditions produces pretty poor quality results at best. I really wanted to try and see what sort of lens flare action I would get from this lens, so that was the reasoning behind taking it out at night.
The adapter has a 1.5X squeese on it, so this footage had it's with scaled by 150% to bring it back to the proper aspect ratio.
Unfortunately, with the 20mm pancake lens I have on the GF1, it's still too wide, so it catches some of the edges of the prisms inside the adapter, so you get some double images, and weird vignetting on the edge of frame. In some cases, it looks kinda cool.
The footage was graded with Magic Bullet Looks.
I'm going to do another test in the day time, hopefully before it gets too damn cold out side.
Let me know what you think!

EPA Grant For Bed Bug Research
As bed bugs are a growing problem, the EPA has stepped in, and has presented roughly $550,000 in grants, to five different states, to research the prevention and removal of bed bugs. This is great news, as they are growing more immune to natural pesticides that are being used. As of now, one of the only ways to definitely kill bed bugs is through extreme heat, although some pesticides will work for bed bugs removal, a lot of the times it will take multiple treatments to completely get rid of them.
The grants will be given over the next to years, the states that will be receiving the money for the bed bug research are Maryland, New Jersey, Texas, Michigan and Missouri.
EPA Grant For Bed Bug Research
The reason for the grants as these are some of the worst locations in the United States where they are having some of the worst bed bug problemsever. The grants will be going towards not only research, but training for workers on how to spot and get rid of bed bugs. As I have stated before, the more that you know about your enemy, the better chances to have to get rid of them. There are many methods that work well, and there are many methods that do not work at all, even though if you search on the internet some articles will say otherwise. This goes to show that you cannot believe everything that you read on the internet.
This is especially true when it comes to these bed bug websites that are just trying to get you to buy a product, and they will write anything that sounds good, thinking that they are actually giving you tips on getting rid of bed bugs, just because they had read a poorly written article somewhere, they may think that they are know experts on bed bug extermination.
If you want to know what do bed bugs look like and see photo, visit this article. If you would like more information about this bed bug EPA grant, you can visit the main source here. With Michigan and Maryland getting the most of the money, you can see how much each University is getting for the education and research on bed bugs right here.

The "Must Have" Home Technology
Long gone are the days when homes only required cabling for the simple basic home necessities such as electricity, cable TV, and telephone. Today, technology is advancing at warp speed and to keep up with our insatiable appetite for information, connectivity, and entertainment choices, structured cabling or structured wiring as it is more commonly called, is an absolute "must have" technology in today's fast-paced world.
The Benefits
Structured cabling gives you the ability to network computers and peripherals, access multiple telephone lines for various purposes such as for fax, voice, or modem usage, and the freedom to watch satellite or cable TV, a DVD, or VCR from any room in your home or place of business.
It Is Literally Plug & Play
The professional design team of Advanced ESI accomplishes this by installing an equipment panel in a central location that not only distributes the service but reconfigures it to each subsequent room. The wall plates in each room are equipped with connectors for video, data, and telephone. Imagine having the freedom and flexibility to just "plug & play" anywhere in your house. It's no wonder structured cabling is quickly becoming a growing trend among tech-savvy home and business owners.
Contact us for a free consultation on a structure cabling solution today.

Patna: RJD today expressed doubts over the secular credentials of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar claiming that despite parting ways with the NDA, he would eventually return to it after the next Lok Sabha polls.
"Kumar has deliberately orchestrated JD(U)`s much hyped up split from NDA to claim a secular image for himself and woo Muslims to vote for his party in the next general elections and eventually return to the NDA," senior RJD leader Abdul Bari Siddique said.
Reacting strongly to the CM`s charge that RJD and BJP have joined forces and may even go for seat sharing in the general elections to defeat JD(U), Siddique said the allegation was `farthest from the truth` given the divergent ideologies of the two parties and Kumar himself has not ruled out return to the NDA as he has problems with Modi and not with BJP.
Kumar and his party JD(U) had parted ways with BJP over the subtle projection of Modi as BJP`s prime ministerial candidate, which he wanted for himself and not for any other ideological considerations, he said.
Also Kumar shares the Sangh Parivar`s political ideology unreservedly and had never tried to hide it for the better part of his political career, Siddique said claimed that Kumar will return to the NDA-fold - most likely after the next general elections.
Siddique, who was the leader of opposition in the legislative assembly till the JD(U)-BJP split last month, said Kumar had been an avid protagonist of RSS ideology during his nearly two decade-long association with it and had used the Sangh Parivar`s propaganda tactics to malign RJD by tagging it with BJP to woo the minority community for votes.
"The sizeable Muslim population in Bihar will not be befooled by Kumar`s nefarious designs as the community has seen the state politics playing out over the past 20 years and the memory of Kumar`s association with the Sangh Pariwar and his bonhomie with Modi all these years was not lost."

With the announcement of StarCraft 2 a few months ago, many legendary Campaign Creators thought by many to be retired returned from the so-called void.

Witch Fever at Ireland's Only Mass
Witchcraft Trial
Witch fever was in the air in Ireland in 1711. A witchcraft trial was convened in Carrickfergus, Co Antrim with the added frisson of being a mass trial – the only one of its kind in Ireland.
On one side – eight terrified women protesting their innocence. On the other – a pretty and pious young newcomer, of a higher social class to them, insisting she was bewitched.
It caused a sensation. Spectators from all walks of life turned up, on tenterhooks for a glimpse of the so-called Islandmagee witches in league with Satan.
Marginalised and voiceless, the women, all Presbyterians, stood little chance of acquittal. Some of the eight were deformed, a factor in the community's readiness to believe in their guilt.
The verdict against them proved to be the last conviction for witchcraft under Ireland's 1586 Witchcraft Act – the felony was dropped soon after. Too late, however, for the Antrim women found guilty of diabolical practices in nearby Islandmagee in 1711.
At best, the evidence against them was sketchy, and all eight maintained they were innocent throughout. But their teenaged accuser was believed in the remote and superstitious Ulster Scots community, where eye-witnesses had seen her writhe, sweat and scream.
The alleged victim, a pretty Presbyterian girl of about 18 named Mary Dunbar, had convulsions, during which three strong men struggled to hold her down. Her body bent backwards like a bow, and her tongue doubled back into her throat. She had visions, muttering away to people nobody else could see, and regurgitated pins, buttons and horsehair – used in evidence.
Mary Dunbar managed to persuade neighbours, the local clergy, and the elite who controlled the law that she was bewitched. However, she was not examined by a doctor, who might have reached a different conclusion about her behaviour.
In reading depositions lodged with the court by eye-witnesses, including Mary Dunbar's own testimony, a sense emerges of something that became unstoppable. She pointed the finger and women were brought in to answer to her. Important men hung on her every word. She had power, presumably for the first and last time in her life.
Spectral evidence was accepted: that even if the women were elsewhere, and could produce alibis, the Devil had given them the ability to send their shapes to persecute victims. Against that, there is no defence.
The eight were sentenced to a year in jail and four turns in the pillory, the standard sentence in Ireland for a first offence. A second conviction would have meant the death sentence.
In a newspaper of the day, it was reported as follows: "We hear, That 8 Witches were Try'd at the Assizes of Carrickfergus, for bewitching a young Gentlewoman, were found Guilty, and are to be Imprisoned for a Year and a Day, and 4 times Pillored."
That was a report in the Dublin Intelligence, an early newspaper printed in Smock Alley by Francis Dickson, and advertising itself as "containing a Full and Impartial Account, of the Foreign and Domestick News".
It continued to keep an eye on the witchcraft case, 10 days later running a false report that "the young Gentlewoman, that was tormented by the Witches, lately Tried at Carrickfergus, is dead".
In fact, Mary Dunbar made another unsubstantiated allegation about being attacked by witches, which did not lead to a conviction. Soon after, she dropped out of history. As did the eight women convicted of witchcraft because of her.
Compared to elsewhere in Europe, it was relatively difficult to have someone prosecuted for witchcraft in Ireland. While Gaelic Ireland believed in the supernatural, it was not regarded as evil. Where misfortune struck, the fairies were blamed rather than witchcraft, and folk remedies were used to overcome their mischief-making.
However Scottish Presbyterians – and Ulster Scots in their turn – believed the Devil actually walked about on earth, seeking to tempt people into evil. Mary Dunbar was a convincing accuser, backed by the Calvinistic belief system of those around her.
An account of the trial was written up by the Vicar of Belfast, William Tisdall, who knew Jonathan Swift – in fact, they quarrelled about Swift's muse Stella. According to Dr Tisdall, who attended the trial, six of the eight accused has a "strange variety of ill looks.... diabolical appearances". They had smallpox scars, or were lame or arthritic, while one was blind in one eye. Some smoked, some swore, some were bad-
tempered. One was described as of "ill fame" or immoral.
Mary Dunbar, by contrast, quoted liberally from the Bible, and was described by Dr Tisdall as "having an open and innocent countenance, and being a very intelligent young person".
We know now that witchcraft accusations were a social control mechanism. Women played a key role in levelling accusations, although it was men who conducted prosecutions and were responsible for convictions.
Some four in five of the people tried for witchcraft in Europe were female and most of them did not conform to the male view of the female template: chaste, docile, attractive and of child-bearing age.
An unfortunate combination of circumstances led to the conviction of the eight women in Carrickfergus in 1711, because scepticism about witchcraft was growing.
Elsewhere, one further conviction was allowed in England in 1712, and in Scotland in 1727. The witchcraft laws were repealed in both countries in 1736. By some oversight, the Witchcraft Act was not taken off the statute books in Ireland until 1821.
But Mary Dunbar was the last person in Ireland to cry "witch" and be believed by the community at large, as well as by the elite which controlled the law.
Unfortunately for the eight women, she was a plausible accuser.

I intended to post this Wednesday, and now we're almost a week past the Tulane game, but I promise this play has implications on Georgia Tech's Saturday matchup with Notre Dame. Or at least I think it does.
The play was a 2nd-and-6 at midfield late in the first quarter. Tech is in its standard alignment, with Isiah Willis and Qua Searcy at A-back, Patrick Skov at B-back and Antonio Messick and Brad Stewart at wide receiver. Tulane is lined up in the 4-3 formation that Tech opponents often line up in, with the middle linebacker set about six yards off the line of scrimmage.
It's a straight give from quarterback Justin Thomas to Skov on the left side. At the snap, both center Freddie Burden (black oval) and right tackle Errin Joe (white arrow) release off the line to the linebacker level. Left tackle Bryan Chamberlain and Willis double team right defensive end Ade Aruna (white oval).
Chamberlain and Willis are winning at the point of attack – Aruna is turned to the side and giving ground (yellow circle). Left guard Trey Braun also has won his collision with nose tackle Corey Redwine (hard to see, but it's happening) and has driven him off the line, giving Skov room to run.
However, middle linebacker Jarrod Franklin has eluded Burden (blue oval) and, likewise, outside linebacker Nico Marley has gotten past Joe (white arrow). Both have a path to Skov.
"That No. 6, he was very athletic," offensive line coach Mike Sewak said of Franklin. "He could dip you in, he could dip you out, he'd go over the top."
Skov, at the Tulane 46-yard line, has gotten through the line and trying to maneuver past Chamberlain and Willis. Franklin, the middle linebacker (yellow arrow) is about to attempt to tackle Skov. Burden didn't win the block, but has continued to pursue the assignment. Likewise, Joe didn't give up on trying to reach Marley, either. He is at the feet of the umpire.
Skov has broken Franklin's tackle and continues to fight for yardage, pushing forward even though his helmet is inches from the turf, as Marley tries to bring him to the ground at the 42 (pink arrow). The other tackler is Aruna (white arrow), who was double-teamed at the line by Chamberlain and Willis and driven so far back off the line that now he's back in the play again. On the video, Marley appears to have momentarily eased up and is almost surprised that Skov is now at his feet, still grinding for yards.
Another look at Skov's run. He gained about another yard after being in this position, although I think he appears to be down, since a player is down when any part of his body besides his feet or hands touch the ground. Regardless, my memory isn't great, but I'm not sure I've ever seen a player continue to gain yards after contorting his body in this manner.
Skov is finally brought to the ground by Marley, down at the 41. He'll get credit for a nine-yard run. First down for Tech on a drive that ended with a 6-yard scoring run by Skov. Behind the play (white oval) is the proof of Braun's block on Redwine.
This obviously wasn't a critical play in the game, but I found it interesting for a couple reasons. One, it shows one variety of the mistakes that the team made against Tulane, namely linemen not making their blocks at the linebacker level. It's easy to conclude that the offense is firing perfectly when it scores touchdowns on nine of its first 11 possessions and averages 8.7 yards per play, but plays like this reveal that it's not quite the case.
Said coach Paul Johnson, "I don't think we're as good as people think we are right now."
A better team than Tulane (say, Notre Dame) will be better able to make Tech pay for missing blocks. It wasn't only this play. Neither Chamberlain nor Joe had great games blocking the linebacker and safety level. I would submit that being quick enough at 300 pounds to effectively throw oneself at the feet of a smaller and presumably quicker player is not easily done, but it's those blocks that turn five-yard runs into 30-yard gains.
"I don't know about for anyone else, but my challenge this week is making plays in space," Chamberlain said, "maybe getting a linebacker in space or getting a safety in space, so that's my key to the game this weekend. If I can make that happen, I'm pretty sure we'll have more big plays this week."
Against a defense as talented as Notre Dame's, those chunk plays may be the oxygen that the Tech offense needs. Grinding out 12-play drives won't be easy with so many players on Notre Dame's side capable of defeating blocks and making stops.
Consider that, on his radio show Monday, Johnson said that linebacker Jaylon Smith might be the best defensive player Tech has faced since Johnson's hire. The list includes LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson, BYU defensive end Ezekiel Ansah, BYU linebacker Kyle Van Noy, Georgia linebacker Jarvis Jones, Virginia Tech cornerbacks Jayron Holsey and Kyle Fuller, Pittsburgh defensive tackle Aaron Donald, Clemson defensive end Vic Beasley and Utah defensive tackle Star Lotulelei – all All-Americans or first-round picks or both – among many others.
"The defense is very athletic, much more athletic than our last opponent," Chamberlain said.
If Tech can't block Smith enough – depending on where he lines up, a lot of the responsibility could fall to Chamberlain, Joe or Burden – he may well end up with 15-plus tackles and help force the Jackets into more 3rd-and-longs than they would prefer.
That said, the flipside of the play is that, even though it wasn't blocked well, it still gained nine yards. (Right guard Shamire Devine also didn't win his block against defensive tackle Tanzel Smart.) But Skov got a head start from the double-team block by Chamberlain and Willis and Braun's win and then ran with power and determination to make it a successful 2nd-and-5 play. Had Skov gone down at first contact, it would still have been perhaps a six-yard gain. Skov, with his combination of effort and power, gives the offense more margin for error. Most times, it's going to take more than one player to bring him down, as was the case with this play.
"He's slippery enough to get through the cracks and he's big enough to run people over," Sewak said. "I think he uses each version as each scenario presents itself. I like having him back there."
Tech won't block every play against Notre Dame as drawn up. The line, backs and receiver aren't perfect, and Notre Dame is too talented to be consistently taken out. Skov, though, and Thomas, for that matter, can keep drives going by making plays on their own.
I'm curious to see how this balance plays out Saturday. You can watch the play below, or by clicking here. The play is at about the 26:55 mark.

D'mario Hollingsworth hit 1-for-2 from the foul line with 2.3 seconds remaining to lift the defending FHSAA Class 4A state champion Tigers to their sixth straight win.
It was easy to tell from the sluggish start to Saturday afternoon's game between The Rock and Cocoa that both clubs were in action on Friday evening.
The carry-over from the Lions' late night was evident as they struggled to shoot 17-for-34 from the foul line.
However, Cocoa overcame an early start to its day and about a two-hour drive and to pull out a 42-41 win and ruin The Rock's senior day.
The Tigers' Leon Henry nailed a 3-pointer from the right corner tie the game with 17 seconds left before D'mario Hollingsworth hit 1-for-2 from the foul line with 2.3 seconds remaining to lift the defending FHSAA Class 4A state champions to their sixth straight win.
Scottie Wilbekin finished with 12 points for the Lions, but his half- court and potential game-winning shot at the buzzer was off to the left.
"It definitely was a tough place to play at (Melbourne) Florida Air (on Friday), we won by five and we had to drive back three hours," said Lions' coach Justin Harden, whose club returned home at midnight after topping Class 2A's fifth-ranked team. "You can attribute the short free throws and the off shooting night (to lack of rest), but the reality is that we didn't play as well as we could have and they played better than us."
The Rock (17-5) was up 23-18 at halftime, but the Tigers opened the third quarter with a 6-0 run and led for the first time at 24-23. It was a back-and-forth affair the rest of the day as Cocoa (13-7) held a 32-30 edge after three quarters and a 38-37 advantage with 3:35 remaining.
Dennis Mavin hit a free throw to tie the game at 38-38 and then followed with a layup in which he spun among Cocoa defenders to give the Lions a 40-38 advantage with 2:22 left to play. Jeremy Williams' foul shot at the 1:00 mark made it a 41-38 game in favor of the Lions, but it also proved to be their final points of the night.
Mavin had a chance to extend the small lead, but missed a pair of free throws with 31.1 seconds to go. The senior guard was 4-for-8 from the line for the game, while the Lions shot just 12-for-26 from the line in the second half, including 7-for-14 in the fourth quarter.
Ronald Patrick grabbed his sixth and final rebound off Mavin's second miss, which set up Henry's game-tying 3-pointer. The Rock tried to snap the 41-41 tie on its ensuing possession, but Wilbekin was off the mark with a long two-point jump shot from the right wing. During the play, the Rock's Rey Velez was called for a foul underneath the basket while trying to get the rebound. That sent Hollingsworth to the line where he hit the second of two free-throw attempts to provide the final margin.
"When you get in the car and drive a few hours, the kids are going to be tired," said Cocoa coach James Rowe, whose team defeated rival Rockledge at the buzzer on Friday night. "The kids played hard last night. It is a big win and the key thing is that we hit the last one (free throw) to win the game."
Cocoa, which shot 21-for-28 from the foul line, was led by Maurice Pugh's nine points. Mavin ended with 12 points and Alain Chigha pulled down 11 rebounds for The Rock, which is ranked third in Class 1A. This was just the Lions' second home loss in the four-year history of their gym.
"For whatever reason we can't shoot free throws, with an experienced ball club too," Harden said. "In a game like this, that's unfortunate that it came down to a free throw for them when they weren't even attacking the basket.
"But the reality is that we had our fair share of opportunities, they capitalized on their free throws, we didn't, we lost. By far this is the worst we've played this season."

The industrial Internet of Things (IoT) means different things to different companies—depending on what they are and what they're trying to do.
Here are three real-world use cases of how Kepware customers are solving their industrial data connectivity challenges and improving traceability, visibility, product quality, and more.
Scenario One: Faurecia Accesses Industrial Data via Web Services for Manufacturing Execution
Faurecia, one of the world's largest automotive equipment suppliers, has a local server in each plant running its proprietary MES, IJ Core. Using the IoT Gateway for KEPServerEX, Faurecia began collecting data from the shop floor and communicating it to IJ Core over REST/ HTTP. IJ Core was then able to store that information, satisfying customer requests for traceability spanning several years
Scenario Two: Teel Plastics Utilizes the IoT for Mobile and Web Applications for Industrial Data
Plastics manufacturer Teel Plastics, Inc.'s line operators use a custom web interface that interacts directly with the IoT Gateway for KEPServerEX—creating a much more efficient and effective method than Teel's previous manual process. With the custom web interface, Teel Plastics was able to design the visuals, controls, and workflows that best suited their process automation goals. And by providing device connectivity for the custom web interface to multiple PLCs—including Allen-Bradley and Siemens—Teel drastically reduces the risk of human error. Among other benefits, these new processes reduced Teel's set-up times by 30 percent.
Scenario Three: German Luxury Automotive Company Uses Industrial Data for Cloud and Big Data Systems
A German luxury automotive company wanted to better predict maintenance for critical equipment. Using the IoT Gateway for KEPServerEX, the company gathers data from devices and machines on the process control network and then publishes the data directly to Microsoft Azure using the secure and reliable MQTT protocol. This has enabled the company to build connectivity, collect data, and better manage maintenance downtime.

Huipil from San Antonio Aguas Calientes #300Posted by admin in HUIPILES, San Antonio Aguas Calientes, SOLD
Exquisite huipil made in the town of San Antonio Aguas Calientes. This area is known for its incredibly detailed weaving that is frequently copied in other nearby towns. This beautiful huipil measures 31″ across the shoulders, and 24 1/2″ from the neckline to the bottom edges (folded). The neck opening is round, and measures 6″ in diameter.
This spectacular huipil has the traditional rows of zigzag mountains, triangular patterns of the rivers, yellow corn plants (symbols) and mayan stars. This huipil is finely woven, but uniquely enough, does not have the 'doble cara' San Antonio weaving style where the pattern can be seen both inside and out. But instead is fully woven only on the outer surface. To look at the underneath, you can only see the burgundy background fabric. The weaving is incredibly fine, causing this huipil to be wonderfully soft to the touch. It have been woven with arti-seda thread that gives it a lovely shimmer.
The colors are a full spectrum of green, blue, orange, red, yellow and much more. The design is woven on a deep burgundy woven cotton base. The collar and sleeves are trimmed in a teal green velvet.
This huipil is in very good used condition. There may be some slight wear in the form of a few loose threads. The velvet at the collar on the center seams has a small spot of wear.

Indians Offseason Moves
Biggest move so far: Gavin Floyd Signing
Cleveland also traded for Brandon Moss, but the Indians need to build their rotation around Kluber and Floyd has the potential to be this year's Scott Kazmir.
The Indians have signed righty Gavin Floyd to a one-year contract for the 2015 season. Welcome to Cleveland, Gavin! http://t.co/kGJJxm0OVz—
Cleveland Indians (@Indians) December 16, 2014
It is filled with incentives:
Floyd went through and extensive physical and is expected to be ready for Spring Training. This was his second season in a row was cut short due to injury and he went through Tommy John surgery in the off season. Last year he went 2-2 with a 2.65 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 45 strikeouts in 54.1 innings over just nine starts.
Starting rotation for 2015 looks like this:
Notable: Jason Kipnis has surgery on tendon in ring finger, will be ready for Spring Training
Possible: Trade David Murphy
Brandon Moss is 31. David Murphy is 33. Both are going to be vying for time in the outfield on an already crowded roster. The question becomes "Would you rather have David Murphy or Brandon Moss in the outfield?". Personally, I'd take the chance on Moss. He also has the ability to play first base.
He's averaged 25 homers, 76 RBI, batting .254 during his last three seasons in Oakland while Murphy has averaged 12 HR & 56 RBI during his past five years. Cleveland may be able to get another starting pitcher for Murphy.

Together: New Nike Ad (Video)
New Downtown Banner To Be Revealed Oct. 30
Sherwin Williams has begun dismantling its 10-story "Our Vibrant Hometown" banner to make room for a newly approved Lebron James banner. It will be unveiled before the home opener on October 30th.
The banner will be 110 feet by 200 feet and weigh in around 1 ton. It shows James in his well known "rosin pose" with Cleveland written on the back of his jersey instead of his last name.
In an interview with the Sun Herald, Sherwin-Williams CEO Chris Connor said "For the past three years, we have dedicated the side of the Sherwin-Williams headquarters building at Ontario and Huron to celebrate the energy, strength and beauty of our home town of Cleveland, LeBron James is certainly one of the prides of Northeast Ohio. We think this new banner is a fitting tribute to LeBron's return to Cleveland and we join with Nike and Cavaliers fans everywhere to welcome him home."

Are you inspired by the Bengali traditional sari drape? Try it out with your lehenga dupatta style. It is a variation of the Sari Style, just complete the drape by taking the long end from the back under the opposite shoulder, pleat neatly and pin to the shoulder. If you want to make it even more typical, invest in a traditional antique look key ring and tie it to the pleated end! Classy and yet quirky!

Cape Style

Very non-traditional, this style of wearing your lehenga dupatta could well turn into a new trend in the days ahead. If your lehenga is very heavily embroidered, go with a net dupatta. Right? Here is the twist. Get the dupatta stitched into a cape style that you could slip into with an asymmetrical short front and longer drape at the back!!! Not too many would risk this, but if you do, it could well be a trendsetter.
Single Dupatta – The Belt Belle
1. Above Navel Empress Style

Inspired by the royalty of southern India, this empress style belted look for your lehenga dupatta is very chic. Worn above the navel, the belt is best worn as an embroidered version of the lehenga border.
2. Below the Navel

For the embellished net dupatta, here's how you can wear your lehenga dupatta this season. Invest in an antique style belt that can be worn over the dupatta, slung sexy lower than the navel. This look helps show off that waistline!
3. On the Navel

If your lehenga is for day wear and stark in its simplicity, sass it up with that antique belt that you found in your mum's jewellery box. Drape the dupatta pleated over one shoulder and spread the pleats slightly over the front and cinch the belt over it to hold in place. The longer end can be taken from the back over the opposite wrist. Va-voom!
Single Dupatta – Pleated Waterfall Drape

How would you like this style for your lehenga dupatta? If your dupatta has a heavy broad border, make a thin pleat along the edge and pin about one third of the dupatta over your left shoulder. The other end, drape loosely across the front like a waterfall and tuck the end at the back. Make sure the loose drape is almost to the bottom but not along the floor.
Single Dupatta – Stylish Back U Drape
Source : outfit4girls.com
A variation of the water fall drape, this style of wearing your lehenga dupatta is essentially a play on your mood. If you have a dupatta that is unembellished other than the border, tuck in one end to the left of lehenga, just below the arm. Loosely U-drape the rest of the dupatta across the back and take across the front in a variation of the sari style.
Dupatta wearing styles can be many…. So which one is yours?

Thank You For Pain
Hi again,
It's me. I begun this series with a letter to you, and decided to close it the same way.
March was indicative of a new beginning in the life of "us". Before then you were a stranger. A being I walked by. A social media friend whose statuses had gone ignored. A leader I watched on Sundays.
Then you spoke. Fireworks ignited and friendship ensued. Nothing forced. Everything about it was authentic. I had no idea you'd become my best friend; my favorite love.
I had no idea you'd become my biggest heartbreak. That was in February three years later. February, a month dedicated to love and black excellence became a month of pain. Of ending. Of termination.
I let anger fester for a while as I sorted through my emotions. There were too many to choose; I always chose the bad ones. The ones that ignited rage. The ones that encouraged me to shout cuss words into the speakerphone before I launched my phone across the room. Funny how beautiful things can quickly become ugly. Funny how we try to avoid those beautiful things later because of it.
March followed—as it does every year. But this March brought a pain that I didn't know existed. It brought reflection that I didn't realize I needed. It brought behavior I didn't know I still had in me. This March was different from the March in which we met.
It was merely three Marches ago that I didn't know you. However over the course of the months that followed, you became one of the most influential people in my life. You taught me some of the most important lessons I've ever been offered. And to deny you of that—like I had done so many times—diminishes the triumph the last three year brought us; it tarnishes the purpose of our partnership.
I'm learning everyday, through this process, that even the people who've caused the most grief have something to contribute to your growth. I've learned not to forget those people. I've learned that some of the biggest lessons come from the palms of those with the bloodiest hands; that they have come at the expense of having the bloodiest wound.
I wouldn't have ever imagined that you could provide one of my biggest hurts, but I also never imagined that you would provide some of the most critical lessons of my life. The ones that I truly believe only you could have taught me. The ones that I fought for months to admit I learned. The ones I know have made me a better lover, a better woman, and one day, an incredible wife.
I learned so much about love through you: what love has the potential to feel like in this damaged carnal world; what's required of me to sustain it; the beauty and importance of fighting for it. You taught me how to be selfless. How to be nurturing. You taught me how to be engulfed in someone, but not lost in someone; how to maintain my own identity while building a powerful partnership. You taught me the sanctity of secrets, and the beauty of sharing them with people I love.
You taught me how to love others after having been so consumed with learning to love myself. Your presence taught me that miracles happen; that God works; that His best works are those most unexpected. You confirmed for me the spiritual component that I need in a partner. You reminded me that I could never date a man who's uncertain about his own life; I could never be led by someone who seemingly couldn't lead himself. You taught me to take it easy on people, though. To give them time. To be patient. To pray with them. To not condemn them. You taught me how to be a helpmate.
Our relationship taught me about hope and the importance of washing defeat from my tongue. How to speak only to the things I wanted to exist; to manifest. Our relationship taught me how beautiful forever could be with the right person by your side. You taught me that the headaches are worth it. That staying mad is overrated, and that the guessing games often done in relationships are [overrated], too.
Amidst the unignorable pain, the times I cried to my mother about how much I was hurting, and the many times I shouted on the phone for you to never contact me again, you taught me about redemption. About forgiveness. About coming out of the darkness restored and elevated. About the process of being planted. About always looking toward the light even when I can't see it. About not becoming a victim of the pain. Many of these lessons were indirect—things I took from our interaction and the circumstances that came from them—but if it weren't for you I'm not sure they would have been learned at all.
So often we try to exile those who mistreat us. Those who left bad tastes in our mouths. But truth is, without them we wouldn't be us. Without the mistreatment, the pain, the hurt, there wouldn't be healing. Redemption. Victory. Without those bad moments, these good ones wouldn't matter much.
So I thank you for forcing me to live through the bad in preparation for my good. I thank you for teaching me the many lessons I needed to learn about love, and lasting relationships, and communication, and faith, and hope, and the beauty of existing in this world with someone. I thank you for reminding me of what I deserve, and for showing me that I can—and will—get it. I thank you for having been my better half for three years. I thank you for dedicating your time and love to helping me become a better woman. I thank you for lending yourself to me for these lessons. And most importantly, I thank you for being my favorite broken heart.
P.S - I'm not giving you all the credit (I know you like to take the glory), I am acknowledging you for what you provided to my life: an amazing journey, and even better lessons.
This series started as a single-person series. It would relive the moments of my life prior to the arrival of this man, then tap into the lessons I've learned throughout its course—from good, to bad, to worse. I was ready to chronicle everything for the sake of making someone else's journey easier. Better. More hopeful. But there was more to it than that. I realized that like me, there were many other woman in this world whose lives turned upside down when that stranger became more. When their March mixed with their February. I knew that there were other women whose stories of pain and heartbreak was worked together for good...somehow. I wanted those women to share their stories too. I wanted us all to recognize how these moments have shaped us in life and in love. I wanted us all, in some way, to recognize the grooming that took place following our pain. I am ecstatic, that so many of you acknowledged the ways in which downfalls pushed you further uphill.
So for all those who came into our lives in March and shook it up in February. Those who taught us something about people, love, and ourselves. For those who didn't love us when we deserved to be loved. Those who realized their mistakes two months too late. Those who mistreated us; and those we mistreated. To those who gave us every reason to cry. Those who made us weak. To the people, the circumstances, the depression. They should all be thanked, because in this moment, after all this growth, they taught us some of the greatest lessons of our lives. Some of the greatest lessons from love.
Before March you were a stranger. We all were. My ex, that inspired me to share my lessons. Me, the woman who created this blog to encourage and empower you toward better. And these women, the ones who dedicated this month to sharing their stories with you; with me. There's been a March and February in all of our lives, that've changed everything we've ever known. I simply hope you could recognize the goodness that comes from it.
To all the amazing women who poured themselves out this month: thank you! Words cannot express the gratitude I feel for you taking the time to search your own hearts, to share the truths of your own stories, and lay them out for all to read on my side of the internet. Your work—both written and lived—is tremendous, and beautiful, and needed. I simply hope that, in the same way you've inspired us all by digging within yourself for this process, it inspired you. I am appreciative of your art, your life, and your lessons. Thank you so much!
To the equally amazing readers who've shared posts, commented, and expressed your satisfaction with the series: I thank you too. I pray that you read something that you needed. I pray that healing happened on the pages of this series. I pray that someone's words ignited some soul searching within you. And I will continue to pray, that whatever lessons you need to learn, you will.

Barclays currently has 250 advisors in the Americas. It added more than 50 advisors in 2009 and plans to add more than 100 this year, according to the firm, which is a unit of Barclays PLC.
Eydt is the latest in a line of branch managers who have recently left the wirehouses following major restructuring of the branch and complex management systems at both UBS and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, which is a joint venture of Morgan Stanley and Citigroup.

The Idealizer - My Two GM Numenera Adventure
Let's pretend there exists a machine that can make you a better person. Just imagine, all of your shortcomings and flaws could be erased. All you have to do is push a button and you'll become an ideal version of yourself. Would you push that button?
This is the question that turned into a Numenera adventure I ran with my friend and fellow GM, Troy Pichelman.
Developing the adventure
I played in a Call of Cthulhu game at Gen Con 2015 that was run by two game masters from the MU Skulls. It was a fantastic game in which the two groups started out at separate tables, got mixed together, broken apart, and then placed at odds with one another. Time and reality became questionable and fractured, and eventually looped back upon itself. It was the most memorable gaming experience I had at Gen Con, and I really wanted to replicate the excitement I had for my gaming friends.
The two GM game rattled around in my head for a few weeks, but I wasn't coming up with any good ideas. I nailed down a few things without coming up with any good story ideas. First of all, the system and setting should make it easy for players to buy into the idea of weird things happening that would cause their characters to fall through time and reality. Numenera is a perfect fit for this kind of thing. Numenera explicitly tells players to expect weird and inexplicable things to happen. Second was finding another GM I'd be able to run the game with. Troy was an obvious pick since the two of us share a lot of opinions about how to run games, and we had half an hour every Saturday to talk things over while our daughters ice skated. Finally, I knew I could get enough players together at either of our gaming weekends, which were coming up in just a few short weeks.
Inspiration for the adventure finally struck a few weeks before Troy's big board gaming weekend. I was feeling really terrible about a lot of stuff and got an idea stuck in my head. When everything feels completely miserable and there's no clear path back to normalcy, it would be nice to just have a switch you can flip to make everything better. This thought evolved over the course of about a week, and I knew I had my double GM Numenera adventure.
Troy and I worked through the details of the adventure over the next few weeks. It was rather informal, and outside of the short discussions we had during our daughters' skating lessons I would jot down ideas for it from time to time. We had a bunch of little ideas and a few big things put together, but neither of us really likes to plan out too much.
The start of the Numenera adventure that I put together was that the player characters found an ancient facility from a previous world and activated it. This facility, which I refer to as The Idealizer, was able to search through countless parallel dimensions, find the best version of you, then replace your dimension's version of you with the better dimension's version. The facility has fallen into disrepair over the countless millennia, so it is no longer very efficient with the whole replacement process.
The adventure then follows two groups, the ideal group and the flawed group, as they make their way through the facility. One group of players would play with the flawed characters, while the other group had the better versions of those characters. For example, the flawed group had Veland the Dishonorable Jack who Needs No Weapon, while the ideal group had Veland the Honorable Jack who Needs No Weapon. The Types and Descriptors of the Cypher System allowed us to make characters that seemed very similar, but were very distinct. The groups will get mixed together, certain members will get swapped out, and they will ultimately get to the final defense the facility has to prevent potential paradoxes from escaping into the world.
Running the game
We've run the adventure twice and it's been a lot of fun. The first time around was a bit rough, but we revised a few things and the second run was much better. Now that all of the local players I'd be running this for have gotten through it, I'm not terribly concerned about spoiling it for some of them anymore. I've learned a lot from the two sessions, and will be keeping a lot of this in mind the next time I start putting together a paired GM session.
The most important thing is flexibility from both GMs. You need to be able to adjust things on the fly, either by extending your time, or cutting something short. We had a few moments that we wanted to hit at different times during the session. About thirty minutes in, we would swap a character between the two groups. Once we got about five to ten minutes from that point we'd check in with a quick text message. If one of us needed more time, then the other would have to start filling in the current scene.
Another thing that I have taken away from the games is that players need more information. No matter how much information I give them, they can always use more. This was something I'd changed after the first time we ran it, and Troy stepped in at the end to provide the groups with just the right amount of extra information to get them to where we wanted them by the end of the game. My pacing of getting the information to the players was much improved, and they were curious the whole way through, but there was just a bit more at the end they needed. As a GM I think that secrets are intriguing, but I forget in the moment that divulging those secrets is what makes them exciting and memorable.
The biggest change we made after the first time we ran the game was to concretely define what the characters looked like. Since we had two groups of players playing essentially the same characters it lead to a lot of questions about how they looked when they started getting mixed together. I hadn't wanted to strictly define physical appearance, since some players really like making up those details, but for the case of this game that open endedness lead to more confusion than we wanted. When Bird Staco got switched in the second session and the players came to the tables with their name tents that had the same character portraits the other players were able to buy the change more easily. Rather than panicking when once character who had been a man turned into a woman, the players were able to focus on the odd and subtle differences that had occurred to Bird Staco after they entered the tunnels of the facility.
Memorable Moments
There were a lot of great moments that arose from the two sessions of The Idealizer.
At one point during the first session, after the groups had been mixed up a bit, my group got into a fight with some creatures. Darcy Ross, a veteran player, was helping some of the newer players out by going over some of the mechanics. She told one of the players, who had been swapped into the group, to use a specific power which she had seen on the other version of the character's sheet. However, since the character had a different descriptor he didn't have the power she'd advised him to use. The look on her face when she realized that the pairs of characters were slightly different was memorable.
In the second session, we swapped Bird Staco as my group was making their way into the maintenance tunnels of the facility. After the switch the group spent the next ten minutes or so freaking out about how Bird had slightly different equipment, while Bird freaked out that her friend Bowe was still alive. When we had odd numbers one group would have a character the other didn't, and that character was long dead for the other group. I was able to sit back and just watch the players do all of the work.
Near the end of the second session one of the players gave me the greatest look. It communicated so much anger and shock because she realized what we were asking the groups to do. I knew at that point the decision we were asking them to make was understood, and it was difficult.
I knew we got the revisions correct, because after the last session the players were all talking about what had happened very excitedly. They were comparing stories, looking for the differences between the two adventures, talking about all of the cool stuff they had found.
I'm sure that Troy and I will be coming up with ideas for another dual GM game for our gaming weekends. For now, I'll be trying to clean up the adventure and actually do something with it. I'd rather not let it rot on a hard drive somewhere.
