Is Hair Dye Really that Harmful?
Stylists and barbers have a huge possibility of getting bladder cancer due to their continuous interaction with hair dyes as well as the dangerous toxins they are made up of as stated by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in Lyon, France.
Individuals who dye their hair frequently are also in this situation. As a matter of fact, the scalp is rich in blood vessels that ease the movement of the contaminants from the hair dye all around the body. Chemicals located in the majority of hair dyes asides from resulting to bladder cancer also lead to complex diseases like leukemia and lymphoma.
Which kind of Chemicals are seen in known Hair Dyes?
There are 456 various hair dyes catalogued in the database of Skin Deep cosmetic produced by the EWG, it has been discovered that 400 of them contain chemicals that are dangerous and may lead to;
- Nervous system intoxication
- Reproduction systems and developmentative systems intoxication
- Poisoning of the different bodily organs and immune systems
- Respiratory, ocular, dermal inflammation, alongside allergies
- Cancer
Chemicals found in "Chestnut brown" or "ash blonde" hair dye:
- 71 percent of coal tar a well-known carcinogen
- tetrahydro-6-nitroquinoxaline and Para-phenylenediamine both of which are confirmed to result in animals developing cancer.
- Formaldehyde, a conservative akin to the growth of cancer and reproductive systems intoxication
- The DMDM Hydantoin preservative, well known for affecting the intoxication of the immune system and controlled in Japan for the right reasons
- Eugenol and ingredients are seen in perfumes which result to nervous and immune systems intoxication, allergies and cancer
Sadly, these are only some of the chemicals and toxic hair dye contains. It is advisable to review the labeled ingredients on your hair dye via the database, or running a Google search. You will be amazed by the things many cosmetic products are made of.
Why Should you bypass Dyeing Your Hair?
According to Studies, exposure to hair dye for long periods can lead to serious health problems. Research which was made up of 900 participants comprising of those who kept their natural hair color and those who dyed theirs monthly, proved that people who used hair dyes frequently had a higher possibility of getting bladder cancer making up to 150-200 percent for women who had been using dye for their hair for over 15 years. Additionally, it was noticed that interaction with hair dye for more than 20years could result in various diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis.
Does Safe Hair Dye Exist?
Hair dye is made of chemicals and is best evaded especially by pregnant women or those who are breastfeeding, as the dangerous chemicals can be passed with ease to the baby as well as lead to critical health complications for the baby.
Things to consider in minimizing the levels of risk
- if you have to select a hair dye, utilize semi-permanent or temporary because the permanent hair dyes are bound to have more toxins
- Some hair colors are more natural in comparison to others. Those that are made up of a base which includes herbal dyes, henna, vegetable dyes are made up of fewer toxins
- Select the salon you get your hair dyes from with wisdom. Inquire from your hairdresser if she utilizes herbal dyes. Also, ask if the shop is kept free of toxins and odors.
- Choose a lighter shade if its compulsory you dye your hair. Darker shades are made up of more dangerous toxins and chemicals
For women who experience gray hair color before 40 years of age, it's recommended you visit a physician before dying as gray hair may be due to hypothyroidism.
Ways to produce your personal organic hair dye?
Herbs and vegetables you require in producing your bright hair dye:
- 2 cups of Strong Chamomile Tea
- cup of Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Half a cup strong calendula tea
How they work? :
- Your hair would have natural hair highlights after the application of lemon juice to your hair either by brushing and spraying and left for some hours under sunlight
- If you mix high chamomile tea of about half a cup with two cups of water then spray on your hair and leave for some hours, you will get a brightly colored hair. If you expose it sunlight during this period, a more intense effect will be achieved.
- Chamomile tea is ideal for the restoration of the softness and shine of your hair if utilized as a hair wash after having a shower.
How is Organic hair dye applied?
All the ingredients should be mixed and placed in a spray bottle, ensure you shake properly before every use. It is best you spray on your hair, allow it be for an hour or more after brushing, for a more intense effect, try exposing it to the sun. This can be done a few times weekly.
The mixture is superb for rinsing hair. If it is not left on the hair and rinsed immediately, it will add shine and vitality to the hair instead of coloring it.
Herbs for Red Hair
Utilizing these herbs cannot make hair red from the beginning. Bear in mind that if your hair is dark red, the result will be an auburn tint. If you have a lighter colored hair, the result will be strawberry shade. Another significance of utilizing red hues is the fact that they get accrued in your hair, the procedure can be repeated as required for the needed effect.

Since 2007, when he shone at the European Championship for players under the age of 20 in Nova Gorica, media and experts have been looking for the right words to describe the play of Milos Teodosic, and perhaps the most adequate way to describe his play would be a famous definition OF basketball given by Leonard Koppett, US journalist, winner of the annual award Naismith Hall of Fame:
"The essence of the basketball is deception ... Every tactic is all the more successful the more your opponents are being caught off guard. The surest way to surprise them is to make them expect just the opposite of what you would do...".
And rightly so: Milos Teodosic has become synonymous with unpredictability, creativity and moves that break even the most prepared scouting of the opponent. He combines the best practices of the famous Serbian basketball school and he is the only one in the third millennium who can be aptly called the successor of Zoran Slavnic and Aleksandar Djordjevic.
He was six when he first played basketball in his native city of Valjevo, one of the traditional centers of Serbian basketball, whose honorary citizen he later became. He started his basketball career in Student, from which he moved to Metalac. He started to play for FMP from Belgrade in 2001, when he was 14 years old. With the age of 20 he was already playing for Olympiakos in which he reached the first major individual trophy in the club basketball: MVP of the Euroleague 2009/10.The same award he received in the season 2014/15, as the CSKA's playmaker.
Over eight years in the two great clubs, Olympiacos and CSKA he won a total of eight trophies and became one of the biggest stars of the best club competition in Europe. At the beginning of the season 2015/16 he was the fourth best assistant players of the Euroleague of all-time, with a good chance to reach the top at some point.
At the time when patriotism started to lose its importance, when every summer the players around the world refused to play for the national team, Milos Teodosic remained faithful to his country and his favorite team - Serbian team. From 2003, when he became the European champion with the cadet national team, he was always accepting the invitations sent by the national selector. He was also the best on the continent with the juniors (U18, 2005) and the youth team (U20, 2007), while with the seniors he won two silver medals, both times playing a key role: the European Championship in Poland in 2009 and at the World Cup in Spain in 2014. He was voted the best player of 2010 by FIBA.

Good to see the National Party taking a leaf out of Labour's book and publishing a list of their electorate selections online. You can see their page here, and I've updated my own multi-party candidates list. Amusingly, they seem to have forgotten the two new electorates of Kelston and Upper Harbour.
The Nats seem to be taking a totally different tactic to Labour, in that they are selecting their candidates for their own safe seats first. Which is why there are very few surprises or new names on the list so far. For the seats they don't already hold, they have selected:
- Epsom – Paul Goldsmith
- Mana – Hekia Parata
- Rongotai – Chris Finlayson
- West Coast-Tasman – Maureen Pugh
Only one new face there, and Maureen Pugh is very unlikely to be able to beat Damien O'Connor's 2500 vote majority.
There are however two interesting points to note on their current selection list.
Firstly, they've selected Lindsay Tisch to stand again in the Waikato seat. Tisch was long rumoured to be standing down at this election – so National's grand rejuvenation wasn't quite as complete as some expected.
Secondly, nominations for Napier closed on the 2nd of February, but they list the candidate as TBA. Either the selection hasn't happened, or they have decided but there is some other issue at play preventing them from announcing who will take on Stuart Nash. Time will tell I guess.

"The motor roared up for moment" (8).
"The truck tires sang on the road" (9)
these quotes from the book The Grapes Of Wrath each personify the truck. Steinbeck does this to show how in this journey for the Joad family the car that they drive will just as important if not more important than each individual person. at least for the actually portion of the trip that involves driving. but right up to the very end of the book the Joads use their car for many different purposes. but even when this car is maybe their most valuable resource they do not have the ability nor the money to properly take care of it, which could foreshadow even more misfortune in the future.

We've just packed the van. Lasse has of course forgot the Satellite Navigator, so they guys are driving back to his place at the moment. I'm writing people that they don't have to worry about lending us a guitar-amp in London, cause we actually fitted mine into the car! Sometimes Gerts packing skills completely surprise me! Actually they amaze me. I'm amazed by them.
So I think that it's pretty clear that we will be driving to the nearest supermarket to buy things we really don't need. Although we will probably be buying things we do need. Like sodas, crisps/chips, chokolate, pudding, apples. Just the most essential things. Maybe some mens magazines with girls and weapons in them.
Well, I better go now. Can't wait to be in England again. Watch this space loves.

FIVA 2015 International Festival of Video Art (Spain)
via Art Media Agency (AMA)
FIVA, the international festival of video art, is to take place at the Es Baluard's Observatori, in the city of Palma de Mallorca, Spain, from 4 March to 12 April 2015.
Founded in 2011, this year's edition of the festival is to be its fourth. Since its creation, it has consolidated itself and expanded its international reach. Video art has developed considerably since its creation in the 1960s, acquiring indisputable prestige in the art scene. In addition, the democratisation of technology required to produce video art (mobile phones, tablets, computers, new publication programmes) means that this medium is becoming increasingly popular. This festival therefore represents a strong symbol of diversity and a mixture of different cultural and national identities.

How Choosing to Be Chosen Made Me A Better ManBook - 2010
This is a story of goy meets girl, and of what happens when a couple in their 20s takes on a complex faith in its 6000s. Laugh-out-loud funny, thoughtful and revealing, Jew and Improved is Errett's take on joining an ancient tribe and dragging his fiancée along for the ride.
nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;When Benjamin Errett proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Sarah, he decided to go the distance by converting to Judaism. This engaging book follows Ben and Sarah's education in spirituality, community and gefilte fish when the couple was pretty sure they already had all those things figured out. But more than that, it's a love story about the ordinary things that happen after you make an extraordinary choice. It's about making a big change in your life for someone else and realizing that you were doing it for yourself all along.
nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;Jew and Improved is a book about a spiritual journey for people who don't read books about spiritual journeys; it's a primer on a major world religion and an answer to all those embarrassing questions about circumcision. And who doesn't love a book that features both a wedding and a recipe for brisket?
For most of my life, I was quite happy to be unemployed, spiritually speaking. But whennbsp;Sarah and I got engaged, I decided joining her tribe was the right thing to do. Beyond that slogan for Quaker Oats, I couldn't quite articulate why I wanted to do this. Sure, it made her parents happy, but I'd like to think I had them onside from the beginning. I knew I was searching for something, though I had no clear idea what that something was.

Experts from the US Department of Agriculture and IT giant IBM hope the Chocolate Genome Project will help them understand how to make cocoa trees more resistant to pests, diseases and climate change.
Although the scientists said the aim of the project is to "improve cocoa trees, yield higher quality cocoa and increase income for farmers," they refused to rule out the prospect of genetically modified chocolate.
Howard-Yana Shapiro, global director of plant science at confectioners Mars, said: "Researchers worldwide will have access to our work, the cocoa genome. What they do with it, I can't control."
When the five year project is complete the full sequence of the cocoa genome will be available for free and without a patent. Dr Jane Rodgers, of the John Innes Centre, in Norwich, said. "The results of the project will underpin all research in the field and stimulate its application to the greater benefit of all."
Dr John Orchard, of the Natural Resources Institute in Kent, said that it was essential to develop hardier varieties of cocoa because it is particularly vulnerable to disease. "Sixty percent of the Brazilian harvest was wiped out by a disease called witches recently and this kind of impact is not uncommon," he said.
Cocoa prices have risen almost 50 per cent in the last year, as global supply of the beans has shrunk.
The cocoa genome consists of about 500 million base pairs compared to 3 billion base pairs in the human genome, which was sequenced in 2003.

A cyclical approach to the use of the earth's treasures as a foundation for sustainable fashion and lifestyle. Biodegradable, nature's materials at the end of their use can be harmlessly returned to the natural system from which they came, hence the title 'Resonance'. Barkcloth has been in use for over 600yrs, one of the oldest fabrics in Africa. It is sustainable, biodegradable and hence environmentally friendly and still in use today. This arboreal leather-like textile is durable and does not fray, yet it doesn't require the same chemical-intensive tanning. It's a centuries-old technique, one that is recognized by UNESCO as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.
The challenge was to create a contemporary and timeless collection using this fabric that is not conventionally used in garment production. Garments are constructed to be versatile and can be adapted by an individual to create different shapes and forms. Traditional shapes can be interpreted differently by the wearer, reassembled to create new forms using concealed fastenings for harmonious resonance. A young impulsive style emerges where the surprise is in the detail.

Nelson Co. Residents Worry About Potential Pipeline
Nelson Co., VA - Some Nelson County homeowners are concerned about a possible pipeline that may run through their property. Dominion Resources has announced they're considering building a 450-mile natural gas pipeline, running from West Virginia through parts of Virginia and North Carolina. Residents say a few days ago they received a letter in the mail. In the letter, Dominion requests permission to go on the landowners' property to survey for best possible routes for the proposed pipeline. Some residents are worried they won't get the final say, however. "There are communities along the line and in North Carolina that are hungry for this low cost natural gas," said Dominion Spokesman Jim Norvelle. Dominion says they're in the very early stages of considering the 450-mile natural gas pipeline. The company is considering several routes for the underground transmission line, some of which could run through Nelson County. "This pipeline can bring economic benefits all along the pipeline as well as to those that are looking for a low cost clean energy source," Norvelle said. Nelson County residents like John Hellerman recently received a letter from Dominion alerting them that their properties fall along the potential route. The letter requests permission to conduct surveys and environmental studies on their property as part of the initial phase. But Hellerman and his neighbors are concerned they will have little say if this project moves forward. "My guess is that it's just taking the path of least resistance. It's just going to roll and it's going to go where ever they decided it's going to go," Hellerman said. Nelson County Supervisors tell ABC 13 since the letter went out, they've been hearing from residents with reservations about the proposed pipeline. "A lot of questions that need to be answered. I don't know if they will be answered," Hellerman said. Dominion will begin conducting surveys and environmental studies next summer. "If the property we are surveying is selected as the best possible route then we will enter into negotiations with land owners about acquiring their property if necessary," Norvelle said. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission first has to approve the plan, then Norvelle says if they decide to go through with the project, they will make sure all the county boards are aware. They will also hold public workshops in communities around the proposed route.

Another Butter Option
I finally got around to going to an Indian market this week and I bought Ghee, which is just clarified butter. They sell it in all kinds of sizes so I just bought a small one to try it out. It doesn't last a super long time (expires in about a year) but it does NOT need to be refrigerated, even after being opened. YIPPEE!!
The day after I bought it I tried it on toast. It tasted just like the butter that I used to can myself. Completely edible, even on toast. It does have an extremely low melting point so it tends to turn to liquid even just sitting on my counter in mild temperatures. You can keep it in the fridge which keeps it in a solid state, but it isn't necessary to refrigerate it.
Another option that I think I have already mentioned is the Red Feather canned butter from Australia. It's about the same price and, remarkably, is literally butter spread in a can. I've tried it and it taste great, just like butter spread you would buy from the store. The upside to this product is that is has a very long shelf life (15+ years) BUT, once it is opened, it must be refrigerated. Could be a big problem since the chances of us having to live off food storage and STILL having electricity seem small.
Anyway, I'm super excited about finding Ghee. There's no way I can store a whole year's worth because my family eats so much butter, and Ghee expires in just one year. That means we would have to use it exclusively in order to rotate it and it's far too expensive for that. My 8oz jar was $3.95. I will have to just store enough that we will be able to have butter when we really need it, but still I can't tell you how excited about this I am. If you could see me right now I'm doing the happy dance!

I am SO glad that this worked out for you. I know how much you LOVE butter! :)ReplyDelete
So funny - every time I see the canned butter at the grocery store out here I think of you. You're awesome!ReplyDelete
LOL - How much do they charge for it out there? I'll be in Utah in June for EFY.ReplyDelete

We tried the canned butter once when we were camping and it was great. Of course when your camping you don't really have a fridge. So we just left it covered in a shady spot. We used it the whole weekend no one got sick or had ill side effect because of it. It the same with real butter is should be refrigerated however is ok on the counter for a few days. My thoughts are also that the can is only 12 ounces not quite a pound. My family of 5 go through about that much in 3-5 days if you include baking. Just a thought.ReplyDelete
Yes that is the problem with all the butters I have found. Prohibitively expensive. You would definitely have to use powdered when baking and only use the canned butter for things like toast, or other items when powdered can not be substituted.ReplyDelete
Hi from Germany!ReplyDelete
I hope you realize that the dates on cans and jars are more for inventory turnover than for actually quality degradation. I am in the process of rotating my storage after a long while of not really using it and in the meantime, most of the cans and jars are out of date. However, so far everything is just fine and tasty with no true off or tinny taste except for some cans of meat that were around 6 years out of date. Of course I dispose of bulging cans unopened. Otherwise everything is fine including the ghee and olive oil I stored. Also simple bags of potato flakes and noodles are just fine too after years.
I am sure that it has also helped that most of our stuff is in a cool basement and many prayers have been said over it.
Zeer pots are great "refrigerators" and easy to make with the right parts on hand. If you use two terracotta pot--one smaller than the other--and sand you can make a cooler that will keep food for days, even a week or more.ReplyDelete
It will keep butter and other things cool nicely.
When we ate our gfood storage I found that quite a few things were still good that were past the expiry date. Some things were definitely not good though.ReplyDelete
Another thing to keep in mine is that even though the food might be edible, it may have lost a significant amount of nutritional value if it's been in storage a really long time. Full stomaches but not nutrients isn't good either.

Tesla was all over the Consumer Electronics Show this last weekend. The Tesla Roadster was positioned outside the Las Vegas Convention Center and at least 2 or 3 others were placed at specific booths inside the show. I captured one in front of the Panasonic booth.
Outside of the convention center Tesla was showing off the new Model S sedan. I would have loved to get a video or a few photos unfortunately I had killed my iPhone's battery by that point. As we approached the area where the car was it took me a few minutes before I recognized it. As you can see below (this was the actual car on display) it looks closer to a Jaguar than to the Tesla (or the Roadsters body twin the Lotus Elise). I was able to briefly talk to the Tesla rep and then picked up the following booklet:
According to this booklet, Tesla will have 3 models with different ranges: 160 miles, 230 miles and 300 miles and the starting price will be around $50,000 (before any federal tax breaks). I'm assuming that means $50,000 for the 160 mile range version, not the 300 mile range. The rep mentioned the vehicle is aimed at the BMW 5 series and Porsche Cayman which puts it in a completely different category than the Chevrolet Volt or Nissan Leaf.
It's a great looking car but I think I'll wait for the prices to come down in a few years besides it won't be out until Q1 or Q2 of 2012. Over the years the Roadster has come down in price thanks to manufacturing advancements and economies of scale so its only a matter of time before the Model S does as well.

Aurelio Voltaire Hernández (born January 25, 1967, in Havana, Cuba) and professionally known by the mononym Voltaire, is a Cuban-American dark cabaret musician. His stage name is his given middle name, which he shares with the famous French Enlightenment writer François-Marie Arouet. Enjoy Voltaire's best quotes below.
"God gave us the gift of life; it is up to us to give ourselves the gift of living well."
"Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well."
"Common sense is not so common."
"The safest course is to do nothing against one's conscience. With this secret, we can enjoy life and have no fear from death."
"By appreciation, we make excellence in others our own property."
"It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong."
"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets."
"What is tolerance? It is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty and error; let us pardon reciprocally each other's folly – that is the first law of nature."
"To succeed in the world it is not enough to be stupid, you must also be well-mannered."
"If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him."
"Tears are the silent language of grief."
"Is there anyone so wise as to learn by the experience of others?"
"The world embarrasses me, and I cannot dream that this watch exists and has no watchmaker."
"Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game."
"Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination."
"Every man is guilty of all the good he did not do."
"Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so, too."
"Faith consists in believing when it is beyond the power of reason to believe."
"Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
"We must distinguish between speaking to deceive and being silent to be reserved."
"Perfection is attained by slow degrees; it requires the hand of time."
"The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease."
"Injustice in the end produces independence."
"We must cultivate our own garden. When man was put in the garden of Eden he was put there so that he should work, which proves that man was not born to rest."
"The flowery style is not unsuitable to public speeches or addresses, which amount only to compliment. The lighter beauties are in their place when there is nothing more solid to say; but the flowery style ought to be banished from a pleading, a sermon, or a didactic work."
"It is difficult to free fools from the chains they revere."
"Optimism is the madness of insisting that all is well when we are miserable."
"Man is free at the moment he wishes to be."
"It is better to risk saving a guilty man than to condemn an innocent one."
"Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth."
"The progress of rivers to the ocean is not so rapid as that of man to error."
"It is vain for the coward to flee; death follows close behind; it is only by defying it that the brave escape."
"Originality is nothing but judicious imitation. The most original writers borrowed one from another."
"Everything's fine today, that is our illusion."
"We never live; we are always in the expectation of living."
"Let us read and let us dance – two amusements that will never do any harm to the world."
"A witty saying proves nothing."
"Prejudices are what fools use for reason."
"We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies – it is the first law of nature."
"The ancient Romans built their greatest masterpieces of architecture, their amphitheaters, for wild beasts to fight in."
"To the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth."
"The best is the enemy of the good."
"The husband who decides to surprise his wife is often very much surprised himself."
"The mouth obeys poorly when the heart murmurs."
"To believe in God is impossible not to believe in Him is absurd."
"He who is not just is severe, he who is not wise is sad."
"Life is thickly sown with thorns, and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us."
"The little may contrast with the great, in painting, but cannot be said to be contrary to it. Oppositions of colors contrast; but there are also colors contrary to each other, that is, which produce an ill effect because they shock the eye when brought very near it."
"It is not enough to conquer; one must learn to seduce."
"I have lived eighty years of life and know nothing for it, but to be resigned and tell myself that flies are born to be eaten by spiders and man to be devoured by sorrow."
"This self-love is the instrument of our preservation; it resembles the provision for the perpetuity of mankind: it is necessary, it is dear to us, it gives us pleasure, and we must conceal it."
"Friendship is the marriage of the soul, and this marriage is liable to divorce."
"All the reasonings of men are not worth one sentiment of women."
"It is lamentable, that to be a good patriot one must become the enemy of the rest of mankind."
"It is not love that should be depicted as blind, but self-love."
"Men hate the individual whom they call avaricious only because nothing can be gained from him."
"Weakness on both sides is, as we know, the motto of all quarrels."
"What then do you call your soul? What idea have you of it? You cannot of yourselves, without revelation, admit the existence within you of anything but a power unknown to you of feeling and thinking."
"Opinion has caused more trouble on this little earth than plagues or earthquakes."
"What most persons consider as virtue, after the age of 40 is simply a loss of energy."
"The secret of being a bore… is to tell everything."
"Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers."
"Illusion is the first of all pleasures."
"The true triumph of reason is that it enables us to get along with those who do not possess it."
"In general, the art of government consists of taking as much money as possible from one class of citizens to give to another."
"Of all religions, the Christian should of course inspire the most tolerance, but until now Christians have been the most intolerant of all men."
"I am very fond of truth, but not at all of martyrdom."
"Every one goes astray, but the least imprudent are they who repent the soonest."
"All men are born with a nose and five fingers, but no one is born with a knowledge of God."
"It is said that the present is pregnant with the future."

"He who has not the spirit of this age, has all the misery of it."

"He must be very ignorant for he answers every question he is asked."

"Tyrants have always some slight shade of virtue; they support the laws before destroying them."
"Nature has always had more force than education."
"We have a natural right to make use of our pens as of our tongue, at our peril, risk and hazard."

"To hold a pen is to be at war."
"We are rarely proud when we are alone."
"Better is the enemy of good."
"The first step, my son, which one makes in the world, is the one on which depends the rest of our days."

"He was a great patriot, a humanitarian, a loyal friend; provided, of course, he really is dead."
"He is a hard man who is only just, and a sad one who is only wise."
"The public is a ferocious beast; one must either chain it or flee from it."

"Very learned women are to be found, in the same manner as female warriors; but they are seldom or ever inventors."
"Love has features which pierce all hearts, he wears a bandage which conceals the faults of those beloved. He has wings, he comes quickly and flies away the same."
"Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel."
"Meditation is the dissolution of thoughts in Eternal awareness or Pure consciousness without objectification, knowing without thinking, merging finitude in infinity."
"The opportunity for doing mischief is found a hundred times a day, and of doing good once in a year."
"I should like to lie at your feet and die in your arms."

"When men do not have healthy notions of the Divinity, false ideas supplant them, just as in bad times one uses counterfeit money when there is no good money."

A minute here. A minute there. Just 14 games into the Grizzlies' 82-game regular season trek, coach David Fizdale is already trying to steal time, to manage minutes, and, yes, trying to make the best calculated decisions he can when weighing the chance to win a game today vs. the potential tax that might be assessed tomorrow.
They've only played two games. The early signing period for the class of 2018 has just passed. And yet it feels like the University of Memphis basketball program's ceiling for this season and the foreseeable future is dropping.

A NEW LOOK AT OLD VIEWS. Just as we're getting somewhere on Brady's Parking Lot vs. Overton Park, Brooks decides to chase something bigger, shinier and newer on the bluff and the Memphis College of Art throws down their brushes.
Ray's Take: With the rise in major hacking instances, it's more important than ever to be safe, savvy and vigilant when it comes to online accounts. Not only were there major hacks to some of the big-box stores like Target and Home Depot, but they also happened at sites that are perceived to be much more secure. Like Experian – and the federal government. Remember the hack into the personnel database?
I'm not an alarmist but I'm also a realist. Traveling with children isn't always easy, and focusing on keeping them safe is a big priority. It's really not hard, especially if you follow some of these ways to keep children safe while traveling.
As a business owner, you've poured your time and energy into making your company successful. But how much thought have you given to what will happen when you relinquish this role? Sooner or later, you will step down and hand the reins to someone else.
Being happy at work is an essential part of career fulfillment. Sometimes, it seems we spend more time researching where to eat the best hamburger than where to work. Much like skipping restaurant reviews, failing to research a company can come back to burn you later. The good news is you no longer have to know someone personally to get the scoop on a company.

This is those kind of songs that you rarely find in the pop genre, but once you hear it you fall in love with it because it's s original and unique. The beats kind of weird, but it has that nice tempo, and background instrumental. The chorus also reminds of the famous group the Presets, because of that electronic vocoder feel to the vocals and music. Again, not a commercial song, but a tune that will get lots of love by electronic-pop listeners. The music video is really cool, but creepy. Check it out below;

1. Do not disrespect fleet mates. While we are mainly an adult clan, we do allow certain younger players to join. Please be respectful and practice good online etiquette.
2. Raging or rage quitting is not acceptable. If you are not having fun, there are other ways to leave during gameplay. "I have to bail guys". Will work. We all get emotional, especially in PvP, but try to refrain from excessive swearing and yelling in chat. Be a good teammate. Repeated offenses may result in removal.
3. Stay active. As gamers, we do understand you want to play other games as well. Long standing members may be given some leeway. If you are "taking a break" let an admin know. If you get removed for inactivity, you can always rejoin later. We will let you know ahead of time if removal is for inactivity.
4. Disrespectful, abusive, offensive, hateful, sexist or racial messages in Band chat or in game will result in a warning/removal. We are striving for a safe fun atmosphere for everyone to enjoy. Members are at various levels or new to the game. We can all benefit from each other.
5. Mic awareness. Please try to consider others in party with regards to background noise. We do understand that some members may have new borns or small children.
6. Streaming. Go ahead. We only ask that if you decide to record the chat audio, be considerate of your party members and inform them. Not everyone wants their voice to be heard and provide instruction for those who do not know how to turn off their chat audio from recording.
7. Members must not be affiliated with another fleet, even over multiple characters. We run as a team. Being a member of multiple fleets or trying to ask our current members to help start your own fleet will result in one warning followed by immediate removal.
8. Have fun! We can't stress this enough. At the end of the day, yes it's just a game, but games and the experiences are meant to be fun. Some members play other games and are part of other game clans. You may find yourself becoming part of a larger community should you choose to.

Tracking fall's progress in a patch of Manhattan forest in Inwood Hill Park.
Autumn Unfolds
Tracking fall's progress in a patch of Manhattan forest in Inwood Hill Park.
Four hundred fifty million years ago, seismic forces transformed shale from the ocean floor into the schist that makes up most of Manhattan today. The geologic results are easily seen in the leafless forest. From the high vantage point of our site, we can survey the rise and fall of the island's topography. Hanging over the Hudson River is the park's western ridge, dotted with distant tree trunks.
In the woods, outcrops of Manhattan schist are set into the earth like Richard Serra sculptures. They are weathered by rain and snow, covered in lichens and algae, and tagged with graffiti. This metamorphic bedrock glitters with quartz, feldspar and wine red garnet. Flecks of white mica flash in the sun.
On Monday, the forest appears barren, but life has not entirely left. There are insects in the duff underfoot. Leaves and twigs provide shelter for moths, butterflies and solitary bees hibernating here until spring.
A sting of wind dissipates the smoky plume of my breath. I imagine the trees still with their leaves, taking my air in and then exhaling oxygen. Biological reciprocity: their waste is our life.
Although winter is beginning, the forest does not mourn the passing of autumn. The days ahead will get colder, but with each there will be more light.
For the past 14 weeks, we have taken stock of seasonal changes in an unlikely place: an old-growth forest preserved in Upper Manhattan. We walked the forest floor, listened to birdsong, watched dragonflies dart about, smelled leaves decaying into soil and rubbed the felted down on acorn caps.
Manhattan is a monument to the built environment. But it also retains rare beetles and 200-year-old tulip trees. This is astounding. It is also instructive.
Some conservationists dismiss urban habitats as degraded and without value. It is true that the five boroughs have lost species like the fringed yellow orchid and swamp pink. But the city's forests are vital because they live where we live. Inwood Hill Park is invaluable because more than 8 million people surround it.
We can define New York City as a city, full stop, or more expansively to include places for chestnut oaks to grow, places for metallic sweat bees to buzz and places for us to take it all in.
Next fall there will be new birds, new insects and new leaves. Autumn will arrive in other forested patches of our city, as long as we are invested in their future. Go outside, and watch it unfold.
Marielle Anzelone — botanist, urban ecologist and founder of NYC Wildflower Week — has tracked fall's progress in a patch of forest in Inwood Hill Park each week. This post is the last in the series. Go to her Flickr page to see more photos including an annotated view of our patch of forest.

'Scorpion Moon' from Sora - inexorable passion and 'siren-song' temptation(April 14, 2013)
I first heard Sora's dazzling voice back in 2009 on the album Heartwood – and thought it would be hard for her to outshine that album for sheer ethereal, fragile yet immediately moving and potent vocals. No problem, with 'Scorpion Moon' she has done just that. From the outset you're pulled inexorably into the passion and majesty that surrounds Sora's 'siren-song' temptation. There are no rock costs waiting for the unwary traveller within this songstress's enticement, simply the depth and breadth of her songs.
Within 'Scorpion Moon' there are 11 of Sora's explorations in song that travel through the shadows of myths, to wander through experiences and memories of desperate longing, intense love and powerful desire. As before, I call this 'music to listen to' – and I don't mean over the in-car system while the world charges past your window. To luxuriate in the true attraction of Sora's voice you sit down, switch off the phone, ignore the world and do nothing but listen.
'Scheherazade' opens the album and with the essence of those persuasive stories holds you enthralled. Among the other charms are the elusive spell of 'Hiraeth', the searching truth of 'Hero' and the intense feeling of 'Mermaid Song'. The realisation of breaking free and standing your ground within the narrative of 'The Tower' is palpable, as is the pure understanding of death and all it means about moving on rather than ending encapsulated by 'Moving On'.
Sora lives and breathes her songs, pouring her soul into each one. Take the time to surrender to the embrace of 'Scorpion Moon' and share the path.

Rockstar News | Zynga Acquires NaturalMotion
Zynga has announced that it has purchased NaturalMotion for $527 million. NaturalMotion being the creators of the Euphoria and Morpheme animation technology as used by Rockstar in Grand Theft Auto IV, Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3 and most recently Grand Theft Auto V.
Previously Rockstar had licensed RenderWare technology for use on games developed on the PlayStation 2 and original Xbox, including Manhunt. After Criterion Games was bought by EA they decided to create their own proprietary technology, resulting in the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine as used on their PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 titles and a secondary engine developed at Rockstar Leeds for use on their handheld titles and Manhunt 2. It is thought that part of the reasoning behind this was to avoid lining the pocket of a competing games publisher.
It may be some time before we hear from Rockstar regarding any possible future use of the technology within their games as at present the only announced title that Rockstar have in development is Agent. For their part NaturalMotion have said that they plan to continue licensing the technology.

One of the basic rules of a trust fund is that the trustee, the person who manages the trust fund, has an obligation to make sure that he or she always acts in good faith and with the benefit of the beneficiaries of the fund in mind. This applies in every state of the union, including New Jersey.
So what happens if the beneficiary of a multi-billion-dollar trust spots a loss of $200 million? There's still so much value in the fund that she isn't likely to be left without the money she might need (which is why the fund was set up in the first place). But if she feels the trustees of the trust fund dropped the ball, does she have a right to question the trustees in a suit? The trustees say no. A federal appeals court says yes.
The case is being brought by Mary Scanlan, the daughter of the founder of General Growth Properties, a huge, traded, real estate investment trust. Court documents put the value of this fund at $34 billion with annual revenue potential of $3 billion. Scanlan's father set up a number of trusts with his wealth and issued orders that trustees should distribute the wealth according to his daughter's needs and her best interests.
According to the suit, the trustees allegedly used Scanlan's trust fund money to buy hundreds of millions of dollars of the GGP investment trust. The purchase came even though her trusts were already heavy with GGP stock. In 2009, GGP declared bankruptcy. Its stock price tanked. Scanlan's funds lost $200 million. She sued claiming the trustees had acted not in her interest, but their own.
One federal court judge in Chicago ruled that Scanlan didn't have the right to sue because the loss her funds suffered didn't threaten her ability to get all the distributions she might be entitled to or need in her lifetime.
But the three-judge appeals court reversed that decision recently. It ruled that Scanlan has a stake in the integrity of the trust funds and their administration and so she has a right to sue. The judges said that if they accepted the position that she had no standing, the trustees would, in essence, be free to drain the trust funds to a relative fraction of their original value without Scanlan having any recourse.
