Will I be able to get a job?? What job will I be able to get??
Quoted from Ngee Ann Polytechnic:
"With your training in psychological knowledge coupled with applied skills, you are well placed to find employment as a programme executive or social work assistant at voluntary welfare organisations, or research assistant at private organisations. You can also assist psychologists, support social workers and conduct social research."
What can PCS graduates do?
- Be change agents in the society to identify, prevent and improve prevailing social problems.
- Conduct research and work with social organizations.
- Assist in undertaking assessment, intervention and counselling for learning and developmental issues in various population groups.
- Work with law, police and rehabilitation services.
- Support clients with issues such as personal well-being, relationships, work, health and crisis management for better quality of life.
- Promote healthy behaviours and the prevention and treatment of illness.
- Coordinate, promote and manage community-based programmes for various population groups.
Yeah it sounds very promising.. and in one line (somewhere hidden between the many lines) it also writes.."With further training, you can become certified psychologists, psychotherapists, social workers, and counsellors.." Yes there are really double full-stops. Purpose: You decide for yourself.
However You do not have to be disheartened, and worrying about your future and whether or not you will get a job. People with degrees and diplomas in psychology are of high demand in Singapore. There are many areas where people in a psychology degree can work in.
A good example would be that as quoted again from the above Ngee Ann Polytechnic website:
"Where can PCS graduates work?
- Corporate Sector - consultancy, market research, professional associations
- Uniformed services - prisons, police
- Governmental bodies - e.g Ministry of Community Development, Youth & Sports; Community Development Council; Ministry of Home Affairs; Subordinate Courts, Family and Juvenile Justice Centre
- Educational Institutions - Schools, Universities
- Research and test development organisations
- Not for Profit Organisations - community and social welfare"
There are actually many areas, however you often will have to look for the right job that suits you.
To end this first post on Jobs, I shall introduce a method of understanding the structure of what jobs you may be able to get when you study psychology. Some of you may remember the Healthy Diet Pyramid that you may have learnt in primary/secondary school? Yes. The idea is similar to it.
Diplomas/Degree holders: A lot of jobs to choose from, however they tend to be more general and of a lower status level and pay
Honours Degree Holders: Jobs may include those of the degree holders as well, but fewer jobs as they now become more specific such as research assistants.
Masters/Postgraduate Degree holders: Jobs now become very very specific and little. Common jobs include psychologists, lecturers and tutors.
There will be more posts regarding Jobs in the future, so TO BE CONTINUED....

No amount of rain was going to stop this amazing wedding from happening. In fact, we decided to make the rain our friend this day! I had the honor of photographing the wedding of Yessenia and Bryan. From the day I met them, I knew two things were true. First, both of them care very much about their families and value the moments with the important people in their lives. And second, this wedding was going to be fun. And on the day of their wedding I saw that both of those were in fact exactly true. Yessenia decided to get ready for her wedding day at her parents house; a place with so much emotional meaning to her. Here in the home where she grew up, she shared a first look with her father who was immediately overcome with emotion at the sight of his beautiful little girl now a beautiful bride. We headed to St Cecilia's Roman in Kearny for a ceremony and then made our way to Celebrations for celebration where Yessenia and Bryan danced the night away surrounded by family and friends. Congratulations to the newlyweds!

In Celebration of the Human Voice - The Essential Musical Instrument

Hip Dutch group Montezuma's Revenge is back with this simply-produced contemporary recording. Allowing the songs and lead vocals center stage, the five men of Montezuma take on pop hits as well as lesser-known compositions from familiar artists, such as Prince's "Sometimes It Snows In April" and John Lennon's "Mother," in addition to self-penned originals (the sexy "I'm da 1-4-U"). "Plateau" has a hypnotic repeating minor-third accompaniment that drives the verse; the swirling descent of notes that are the setting of "Sometimes It Snows" are a modern tone-painting. The radio-friendly "Virtual Insanity" (Jamiroquai) lends itself well to this a cappella version; anyone who has heard the chorus once will recognize it instantly. This CD reveals more with each listen.

Is great architecture in the details? Preservationists who are angry at Columbia University for rebuilding some brick walkways think so.
Charles McKim of McKim, Mead & White planned Columbia University in the 1890's, he designed walkways of hand-made brick to connect classrooms, laboratories and offices. But Columbia is currently repaving the now uneven walkways, using bricks that are shorter, narrower, rougher and a brighter red.
The change has been largely unnoticed on campus, but preservationists say Columbia is pursuing safety at the expense of historical integrity. They say that old-style bricks, while costly, can still be found.
"The campus was very carefully designed by a very great American architect, and instead of the university destroying it slowly it should be trying to restore it," said Robin Middleton, a Columbia art history professor. Columbia finds itself defending the new bricks, calling them "an appropriate contextual and architectural response to the need." DAVIDSON GOLDINContinue reading the main story

During the 1500s in the Age of Exploration, when strong European countries with powerful ships began exploring the world, many parts of South America had been taken by the Spanish; the French had established trading posts in Canada and; the British and the Dutch began trading with Asian countries.
In the late 1500s the Dutch (Holland) or the newly formed Republic of the Netherlands built trade routes with the islands of Indonesia which was called the Dutch East Indies back then. By early 1600s Portugal was losing power in South-East Asia. Holland on the other hand was becoming more powerful and controlled the Dutch East Indies. After the Portugese and Spanish had reported that there were new lands in the South Pacific Ocean, the Dutch sent ships to investigate. Willem Jansz, and Dirck Hartog were some of the captains who lead these ships and explored the new area and coastlines of Australia.
Batavia, on the island of Java was the main Dutch base and Dutch traders sailed to the East Indies to take spices, gold and precious metals back to Holland. The route to Java took the Dutch sailors around the Cape of Good Hope in Africa and then they would head south where the Roaring Forties would provide such strong winds that they would travel very quickly across the Indian Ocean before heading north for Java.
Sometimes the Roaring Forties blew the sailing ships further east than the captain intended and sometimes, the captain made mistakes in navigation. This led to some Dutch ships being shipwrecked along Australia's west coast. When this happened, ships were sent from Java to search for the wrecked ships, and through their voyages, more knowledge about Australia's western coastline was charted.

Summer maxi dresses online are the kind of clothing that many women love because they not only look good, but they make us feel good too. These are the best kind of clothes – the ones in which women feel confident and happy. What is it about maxi dresses that women love so much?
One of the many great things about maxi dresses is that you can wear them with confidence. Buying maxi dresses online gives you the option to find the perfect one for you – depending on the shape, length and colour of the dress – and once you have it, you can wear it all the time. Maxi dresses allow you to have complete freedom when it comes to your clothing; not many other items of clothing can do that. Shirts, for example, have the worry of becoming untucked when you want them tucked in, and tucked in when you want them untucked. You might also be concerned about the buttons gaping, or accidentally showing your stomach or back as the shirt rides up. This won't happen with a maxi dress. Nor will a maxi dress come undone accidentally like trousers can. And it won't restrict movement like other, tighter clothing often does. You are free to do what you like where you like, and enjoy it. So buy dresses online to gain freedom in clothing. It will make a difference in your confidence levels when you are out, since you will know that your maxi dress won't let you down. It is one less thing to worry about.

SMN – How long have you been modelling?
JUSTIN – I'd say that I really started modelling in 2011, for multiple designers participating in Western Canada Fashion Week. It was part time, then eventually my passion just took over my life in 2013-2015- it became full time. Since then, it's been back and forth. It has expanding into so much; Not only do I model, but I am also a Model Instructor. I've been doing more international work as well, these are such amazing opportunities for growth.
SMN – How did you get into it? What was your first shoot like?
JUSTINA – It happened so quickly for me. I was literally performing a pedicure on one of my clients during my college year, at MC College in 2011. This beautiful, graceful lady walked by and when she got to me… She stopped and asked if I've ever modelled before, Runway in particular. I said no, but it's definitely something I was working towards! I've always dreamt of it… She asked me to show up on a particular day at Western Canada Fashion Week, the fall/winter season. I didn't even think twice- I was thrown into 4 different outfits, by 2 or 3 different designers. I didn't even get names, it happened so fast, but was SUCH a great experience. From then on, I've dedicated a lot; including days, weeks, and months to modelling. It's become a lifestyle more than anything.
SMN – What genres of modelling interest you?
JUSTINA – I am very versatile as a model. Although I'm known mostly for Runway, Fashion, Editorial, and Promotional work… I also have done commercial work, and have years of experience with artistic modelling. I find the beauty in everything, including implied/emotive art.
SMN – If you had to pick one, which would be your favourite shoot?
JUSTINA – It's impossible for me to choose just one. I take a little bit from each project, from every experience. I'm very appreciative of all the collaborators involved in everything I do… I have done maybe 75% of the hair and makeup for the projects, it's something I am certified in, and love to do. I sincerely love being able to express feelings and emotions, sell products or pieces, and just be in the moment.. With such creative and artistic people!
SMN – If you could do a shoot with anyone you wanted, anywhere you wanted, who would it be with and where would it be?
JUSTINA – I think this is a really hard question. Again, I'm finding it hard to made a choice… I just know it would be with someone fun and professional… Passionate about what they do and about the industry. I imagine warm sand, golden hour sunshine, rays.. I see rain too, light rain. Natural. Different emotions.
SMN – What about mistakes, do you make mistakes?
JUSTINA – Of course I've made mistakes. We all do, it's part of how we learn and grow.. No shame there.
SMN – Have you made any mistakes on set or in the course of your career that you can warn others about?
JUSTINA – This is a tough question for me. I have a lot to say here, and I do love to help others. Throughout my years, I have learned a lot about communicating, safety, social media, networking, behaviour, etc. It's important to be careful, be yourself, be understanding, and always be professional. Stick to your brand.
SMN – What's your biggest blooper on set?
JUSTINA – I don't know about biggest… I mean, I've fallen, I've laughed too much, I've made mistakes, I've forgotten names… but my funniest blooper would be… When I was on set, for this SMN submission to be honest… I really didn't mean to FULLY pull the string on my bikini top… But it happened anyway! Surprise! It was such a funny moment, and I absolutely love that it was captured! These are my favourite types of images: the unposed/unaware/real emotive shots.
SMN – What would you say your biggest mistake in life has been so far?
JUSTINA – I really wouldn't be able to name just one… I do believe that we are responsible for ourselves and must take care of our minds, bodies, and lives. Mistakes happen.
SMN – What was the outcome and what did you learn from it?
JUSTINA – I'm always learning, and believe that I've become who I am because of the mistakes I've made. No matter what, we MUST have self love, and awareness of all kinds.
SMN – Do you have any "Favourite Mistakes" you care to share? They don't have to be of the romantic nature, then can be adventures with friends that took a wrong turn.
JUSTINA – I've been on a few International Model Workshops where things did not go as planned, at all. I actually made this mistake twice, International Workshops… I won't let it happen again. Be very careful when traveling, especially as a model, for work or not.

Subject: My View on Death
Sat Feb 28, 2009 3:58 pm
Hello there gents and ladies (however few of you there are)
I think I'll take a bit of a break from my preaching of the technological-industrial society, and settle into a more interesting topic.
When I think of death, I think of the unknown. Now this presence of the unknown may or may not induce religious qualms, but I feel that a realistic view of it should not go unwarranted. Now, as human beings, naturally we are plagued with Ethos and Pathos- Emotional state and philosophical and/or intellectual state. These varying degrees of humanity are what tortures us throughout or lives. Grief, sadness, happiness, joy, anger, rage, thought, desire, lust, contemplation, all are forms of suffering and enjoyment innate in the human condition. The purpose of death, I feel, is to free us from these viral propensities and urges, and to transport us into a more serene or tranquil state of existence where we do not feel any forms of desire, and cultivate no thoughts.
Now, the existence of this purged state of Ethos and Pathos, I think should be labeled as "pure being", in other words, a form of existence, free of all human nature. So the question would be, "this form of pure existence, would bear no consciousness?" I would like to say that it wouldn't. Consciousness is also a form of human nature, and if we still retain a level of veritable "consciousness" even after death, than I feel that this pure being I venerate, may not be possible. Although, if we were to be free of any and all thoughts and feelings, I trust that would be the freeing of "consciousness" in itself. But I cannot say for certain what consciousness can be after death if it can be anything, so I am unable to provide any definitive outlook from my rationalization. However, what would be the point of death, if NOT to free us from our human condition? And our suffering? I love to place death into a more peaceful schema of potential. I like to imagine that death could offer a life correlating to that of a "tree" or a "grain of sand", something that exists, and sustains itself as any other obstinate thing would. This would be my definition of a "good" afterlife.
What do you think guys?

The problem with death is the idea of the "I".
When you die, "I" remains except that it is uttered by another body-mind-spirit. When you say "I" will die you are confusing yourself with the body. Your consciousness surely will die and surely your personality. But just like the clouds that form to become a beautiful image in the sky that event will surely cease and break up.
After death is what it was like before birth. That "ether" which manifests itself but keeps hidden in all things great and small returns to itself. That "itself" can never be know. I think it is ever known the universe will come to a complete end.

Upon death, there is no "we", or "you", or "me". There is no stable, core self that is separable from, and independent of, the particular phenomenon of life that is dying.
The suffering, the thoughts, the desires, the emotions, those drives,
you. Stop these, and you erase yourself from existence.
Quote :
Now, the existence of this purged state of Ethos and Pathos, I think should be labeled as "pure being", in other words, a form of existence, free of all human nature
Such a state is a metaphor for non-existence. "Tranquil", "serene", and so on, are, in this context, synonyms for inactivity, and a freedom from all human nature implies an absence of activity- no desires, no emotions, no thoughts, no self-perpetuation, no ordering, and, ultimately, no microscopic activity.
Existence is constant activity. If one partitions microscopic particles enough times, breaking down electrons, protons, neutrons, etc., what remains is waves- constant activity. Even if one removes all heat from a system, the particles still vibrate with a base level of movement (zero-point energy)- these particles
the movement.
What we perceive as solid objects, are essentially waves oscillating so tightly their constant activity cannot be perceived, on a macroscopic scale.
This constant activity, manifests macroscopically. A phenomenon of life is constantly performing ordering and self-perpetuating activities. Even while sitting still, apparently inactive, its cells are continually respirating, it still breathes, and digests, and performs other functions, and even if these are stopped, somehow, without disintegrating this unity, the molecules that compose this creature continue vibrating.
Thus, if one were to remove all activity (begin a tranquil, serene state), one would remove all existence. Remove the macroscopic activities that define you as a phenomenon of life (suffering, thinking, desiring, etc.), and you, as a specific phenomenon, cease existing.
In other words, when you die, there is no "transporting" of you. There is no "you" left to transport. Transportation is, if anything, a metaphor for an end to your existence.

Yes, consciousness is an adaptation that controls (directs, organizes, alters) activity. In a tranquil, serene state (a state of inactivity) there is no need for consciousness, and it will thus not develop or will atrophy.
That is one reason that a conscious, perfect God is an absurdity.

(Sorry, my vocabulary in english is rather very narrow.)
While growing up, I have wondered how I could live in peace with no doubts and fears, without analyzing and knowing first what my death really is.
Many told me they enjoy keeping it, like many other things, as an enigma.
Being a rational person, I have started with the fact that death will take my will away from the time/space realm I live in. In other words, death will return me back to void (relative to my actual existence) as in the following simple equation:
Void > forced birth into actual life > death > void.
My first axiom is that the starting and ending voids are, practically speaking, alike.
My second axiom is that after the first void, there must be an external Power/Will (external to mine) that has forced me, in a way or another, to exist in this time/space life.
Based on the intuitive rule "What happens once, could happen twice", I deduced that there is always the possibility that this same external Power/Will could allow me (actually force me), while I am in the second void (i.e. after my death) to be in a sort of realm again.
Therefore, my next important question became to find out what this possible second life could be. First I rejected the idea of reincarnation because it would throw me into a quasi-endless loop, instead of a real and concrete fact that I am looking for.
So I asked myself: "Did I have the opportunity to know the state of death in my life?"
To my big surprise, the answer was YES. Simply because, every time I went to sleep, I was indeed temporarily killing myself by losing all my conscious controls related to the time/space realm. In other words, I let myself be in a state of voidness (always relative to myself since for others I am still alive). Then, my quasi-dead body (while sleeping) is already programmed, if all factors are normal, to return me back once again into this existence sooner or later.
But sometimes while I am in a deep sleep (in a real void) and before I wake up, I may be forced to be (born) into a special existence, known as DREAM. In a dream I feel as if I am returning back to life though in which there are no time/space limits and my will to change things is rather paralyzed. Naturally my body will exit me from this realm of dream so that my time/space existence can resume for another day perhaps, and only then I would know that I was dreaming.
So to me in the least, I can't deny that whatever created me gave me the possibility to live, on earth, in two totally different realms known as LIFE and DREAM. And although my dreams are now stimulated and/or ended by my actual living body, the death of the latter will not imply that my Creator cannot allow me to be born in a dream-like existence. So logically, no matter how long I will be in the state of voidness after the death of my body, I may live again in an ENDLESS dream since there is no flesh to end it.
Now the above equation becomes:
Void > forced birth into actual life > death(last sleep) > void > forced birth into possible eternal dream.
May I say that I live in a way that lets my dreams (hence the last dream too), as peaceful and enjoyable as possible. On the other hand and I may be wrong, I believe that only the spiritual joy due to the true (unconditional) Love toward others is eternal while all other sensations will end up again to voidness even in the last dream!

By accepting you are negating the Resolved.
Given your response I'd wager you have something tricky up your sleeve.
Nonetheless here are my contentions:
Contention 1: Negotiations are being abused by Israel.
The Israelis and Palestinians have been at each others throats since creation of Israel half a century ago. Much was thought to be achieved when the Oslo Accords were 1993. One of the terms of the Accords was that five years after the Accords were signed, that talks to create a permanent and recognized Palestinian state would occur, however, over a decade after those talks should have ended, Israel still has not allowed an internationally recognized state to form. Now onto to how these talks are actually being abused. Israel understands that these talks will inevitably create a Palestinian state, but is abusing them allow more settlers to take what was meant to become Palestine. In fact, there is over 500,000 Israeli settlers who have encroached upon Palestinian land. [1] According to the Los Angeles Times, at the current rate of expansion "practically nothing will remain" when a Palestinian state created. The US can help see that Palestine's rights are respected by officially recognizing Palestine as a country, thus making Israel's encroachments seen for what they truly are, a violation of international law.
Contentions 2: War crimes have been committed against the Palestinians.
Another major reason why Palestine should be recognized is because they are the victims of war crimes and international recognition will help them make their case for compensation to those affected. Israel committing war crimes is nothing unheard of, both Human Rights Watch [2] and Amnesty International [3] have found that Israel has committed War Crimes against Palestinian civilians by using the incendiary agent White Phosphorus, which is also clearly in violation of the 1980 Convention on Conventional Weapons. This is why it was banned for use against civilians- "Phosphorus burns on the skin are deep and painful; a firm eschar is produced and is surrounded by vesiculation. The burns usually are multiple, deep, and variable in size. The solid in the eye produces severe injury. The particles continue to burn unless deprived of atmospheric oxygen. Contact with these particles can cause local burns. These weapons are particularly nasty because white phosphorus continues to burn until it disappears. If service members are hit by pieces of white phosphorus, it could burn right down to the bone." [4] The US has a duty to recognize Palestine so it can join organizations like the United Nations which can punish Israel with sanctions if necessary for using these weapons against civilians and violating basic human rights.

I look forward to your arguments and rebuttals.
I am going to do something that is considered a nonstandard debate practice on this website: I am going to run a Kritik. A kritik is "generally a type ofargument that challenges a certain mindset, assumption, or discursive element that exists within the advocacy of the opposing team, often from the perspective ofcritical theory" [1]
My opponent's contentions present excellent points about the human rights abuses committed by the Israeli government, but they also raise an important question about ethics that must be resolved before we discuss this topic. My opponent presumes that the proper solution is to create a separate nation-state for the Palestinians. This solution is corrosive because it backs the outdated nation-state concept, which is not a solution that can have any measure of impact. Note that my opponent does not even prove solvency; all his case does is present problems that he claims will be solved if a separate nation-state is created. In fact, the problems arise from the type of thinking that he presents.
Flaws in the Nation-State Model
The idea of nation-states stems from the notion that individuals have moral obligations only to those who share common ancestry with them and share common characteristics and culture. Advocates of this type of communitarian thinking note that nation-states often arose as a means of defending people who lived in a given area from other groups who had already united in a similar fashion. Modern advocates of the nation-state conclude that people are intrinsically more likely to help those who are like them, conveniently ignoring the fact that they are educated to do so by previous generations.
I reject this type of reasoning. First, it is morally arbitrary. The concept of nation-state claims that there is a morally significant difference between individuals born in Mexico and individuals born in the United States, and that this gives us an obligation to serve the people from our country but ignore the suffering of "outsiders". However, all geographical boundaries are wholly arbitrary; there is no intrinsic reason that the U.S. territory ends at the Rio Grande River. It resulted from an accident of history; had the territory extended further South, people born on the other side would be considered citizens. Moreover, this reasoning ignores the fact that all people have natural rights because they are born human, and that these rights predate the concept of states (in fact, states were created to protect rights!). Karina Sangha of the University of Victoria explains, " A human right is a right that an individual enjoys by virtue of being human. They are rights demanded by humanity on all of humanity.These rights are premised upon the morally relevant characteristics that are shared by all of humanity, of which the equal vulnerability to suffer is likely the most notable. Each person has an equal moral status as a human being, and justice requires that such a status be treated with respect." [2]
Second, the nation-state model is prone to conflict and violence, and is in fact responsible for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that my opponent is hoping to solve. If I claim that I only have moral obligations to aid the people who live in the same nation-state, then I have no obligation to respect the rights of foreigners and I can do as I please to them in order to maximize my wealth. This lead to the current conflict my opponent is discussing because it lead the division of the two peoples along ethnic lines and allowed leaders to employ "us versus them" contentions as a means of promoting violence.
The Cosmopolitan Model
Cosmopolitanism eliminates the problem by emphasizing commonalities and noting that all people have moral obligations to each other than transcend locality. Cosmpoliatnism is based on moral univeralism, the idea that morality is universal and applies equally to all people. According to Simon Caney of Oxford University, the tenets of moral universalism are: (1) there are valid moral principles; (2) moral principles that pertain to one person apply to all individuals who share morally relevant properties; (3) human beings share morally relevant properties; (4) therefore, there are some universal moral principles. [2] Thomas Pogge of Yale University extends Caney's analysis while discussing cosmopolitanism when he explains that there are three basic tenets of cosmpolitaism: individualism, referring to the fact that the units of moral concerns are individual human beings; universality, meaning that every human being is of equal concern; and generality, referring to the fact that this status of human beings is global – that is, all human beings are units of ultimate concern for everyone.[2] By emphasizing the fact that people all moral obligations to all, cosmopolitanism deconstructs the ideas of state sovereignty and national allegiance [2]. It also eliminates the need for a nation-state because it emphasizes that we ought to treat all people, regardless of "origin", equally.
The Alternative
While my opponent attempts to solve the problem of human rights abuses in Israel, I have demonstrated that his solution cannot fix the problem and will only exacerbate it because it is entrenched in the idea of nation-states and national allegiances. It would continue to foster divide between the two segments of Israeli society instead of promoting unity I thus would like to propose an alternative solution: Instead of recognizing Palestine as a state and thus perpetuate the nation-state model and continue the conflict, the United States should attempt to help the Palestinians seek recourse through the U.N. This counterplan demands that the United States ought to claim that the government of Israel is abusing its own citizens. According to cosmopolitan ethics and basic social contract theory, states have no intrinsic value; they only exist to protect rights. Sangha continues, "Cosmopolitanism charges that political institutions like the state are only valuable insofar as they serve particular ends, the most significant of which is respecting the human rights of their citizens. This is the primary duty of the state, the reason for its establishment. The state has no intrinsic value and is deserving of legitimate recognition in the international realm only if it lives up to its obligations in the proverbial social contract entered into by its citizens." [2] This is more likely to promote peace in the long run because it classifies the Palestinians as an integral part of Israeli society that is being suppressed by a government that, as a result of its actions, is illegitimate. The Israeli government will then be forced to promote the rights of the Palestinians in order to restore its legitimacy on an international plane. It also reduces discord and emphasizes the fact that although the citizens are of different origins and have different religions, they are still people, they still have obligations to one another, and they can work to overcome their differences in order to create a more prosperous future. It also completely strips Israel of any legitimacy it gains by claiming that the Palestinians are a subversive terrorist group that is seeking to divide Israel. The Israeli government becomes the aggressor and the Palestinians become the victims; this tactic removes any and all arguments of genocide for the sake of "national defense". You can extend all of my opponent's evidence about the Israeli government's atrocities here because they all serve to prove the point that Israel is the aggressor regime.
Thus, my opponent's plan is flawed because it provides no solvency, exacerbates the problem, and is based on a model that is both outdated and destructive.
Thank you.

Moving from Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day
- by Arlene Howard
- in Global Media
- — Oct 10, 2017
For most of us then, Columbus Day is just another Monday.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt proclaimed Columbus Day a federal holiday in 1937 following a lobbying campaign by the Knights of Columbus.
Italian Americans ride on a Columbus float while participating in the annual Columbus Day Parade in New York City, Oct. 10, 2005.
LaMattina and others in the parade object to calls for an end to the Columbus Day commemoration by people who have attacked the explorer's history and his legacy.
Several states, including Vermont, Minnesota and Alaska have replaced the second Monday in October with "Indigenous People's Day" as an alternative to Columbus Day. Here are some of the reasons why.
Columbus, an Italian explorer, discovered the Americas and began large scale European settlement of the New World.
Colleen Green, director of Native American Programs, believes Columbus is celebrated on this day because many were taught false information in school and do not know who Columbus truly was.
Read on to learn more about the protests against Columbus Day, and those that have affected the Columbus Day parade.
In his book "A Voyage Long and Strange: Rediscovering the New World", author Tony Horwitz wonders why so much emphasis is put on Columbus and Plymouth when others had come to the continent first and significant exploration happened between 1492 and 1620.
Colorado's capital already didn't officially recognize Columbus Day, according to The Denver Post. Instead, those places are celebrating Indigenous Peoples Day. "It doesn't recognize and we don't speak about the impact that contact had on the indigenous people of our nation", said Darlene Trigg with the Social Justice Task Force in Nome.
Their stories didn't make the history that the winners wrote, but they too should be honored and appreciated. Demographics encourage different celebrations.
Within 60 years of his landing, there were only a few hundred Taino natives left, compared to the 250,000 who were there when he arrived. The problem isn't that what he did that was inhumane or whether we'd be here without him - it is the misinformation.
Columbus connected the eastern and western hemisphere, essentially changing every aspect of human connectivity; from how we travel, to how we trade, to what we eat, and how we think. "Whatever our age, whatever our race, whatever our religion, we ensure that everyone here feels welcome at all times".
The West has its good and bad points, but its best ideas-equal rights, freedom of religion, free speech, due process, open scientific inquiry, property rights and so on-have helped all people who adopt them.

So you've heard the term 'short sale' but you aren't exatcly sure what a short sale consists of. Well we are happy to explain the short sale definition for you today. Short sale is a rel estate term for when the homeowners sells their home for a loss. This requires negotiating with your lender because they ultimately are the nes who have to sign off on the deal. You cannot sell in a short sale without your lenders permission.
The way the housing market is these days many people are opting to sell their homes in a short sale. The banks/lenders are allowing the homeowners to sell instead of taking on even more foreclosed properties. Normally your lender will only allow you to sell in a short sale if you are behind in your payments and facing foreclosure. You would also be required to write up a hardship letter explaining why you should be allowed to sell your home for a loss. We have a nice write up on writing a hardship letter here on our site if you need some help writing one.
While most who opt to sell in a short sale are already facing foreclosure this doesnt always have to be the case. This can also be used before you get into trouble if you are being proactive about yopur housing situation. This doesnt mean that you can just sell for a loss anytime you want, you would need to be on the path to trouble. You are just being more proactive than others who wait until they are facing foreclosure. An example would be if you lost your job with little prospects for a new one in the near future.
Right now is a great time to sell in a short sale since the government is forgiving all taxes owed on the amount of debt forgive. In brighter times you would be required to pay tax on any amount of debt your lender forgives. It's always best to work with a short sales expert who knows how everything works. You don't want to end up paying any money to your lender or paying more taxes than you should. It's a bit more complicated than a normal real estate transaction.
We hope our short sale definition helps answer your questions. If you would like another take on the subject please visit wikipedia to read what they have to say.

Our Triumphs and Tribulations ~ Dealing With FPIES in the Kitchen and Beyond!

when you say 'She has trouble with corn meal'.. you mean ?ReplyDelete
We actually recently discovered the answer to that question! Cornmeal was passing through her system whole, no matter how I prepared it. And it left a nasty nasty diaper rash with raw skin. Well, I recently realized (after trying the cornmeal gnocchi and not seeing yellow, gritty diapers later on) that when we had tried cornmeal, it had been in the weeks following severe reactions when she was not absorbing much if any of her food.ReplyDelete
So since she had been free of a severe reaction (we have only had two "minor" reactions recently) since the beginning of March, I think that is why we didn't have issues. She still isn't super crazy about it though-- I think it is some of the texture, some of the taste-- so I stick with Masa for most things.

Every year I take two red guides, one in my office, one always in my backpack travelling around the world. Its an essential tool for every journalist in the MotoGP Media Centre. It is easy, fast and enables instant access to any result or fact. Whenever your memory doesnt have the answer, you can find it.
No matter how good the human memory this guide is always better.
It doesn't matter which language you understand. What you can find in this book is the collection of numbers, rankings, lap times, years, names, etc. And, history is always the accumulation of those simple facts. In other words, with the FIM MotoGP™ Results Guide, you have a huge and the best database of GP history in your hand.
In the press room at GPs we call this book 'The Bible'. It is a wonderful creation, without which my job would be much, much harder. It's a real treasure trove! I am sure it will continue to be the most used book on my bookshelves, just as it has been for the last 20 years or so! That's how essential it is.
An incredible job. This guide has been and is for me a kind of bible that is always on my side when I have doubts about figures, facts or names.
Every journalist following the Grand Prix races keeps this guide on his table in the press room. It gives you the right answer to any question, so... if you are a race fan, you will enjoy it, because it takes you on a long trip, telling the story of the World Championship through the numbers.
More than 20 years ago, thanks to the late Maurice Büla, I was fortunate to discover the importance of maintaining archives. I have now rediscovered this experience with the FIM MotoGP™ Results
Werner's essential guide contains all the power of racing's heritage, and puts it at your fingertips. I'm frequently inspired by its contents; I'd often be lost without it.
What they think of it!
The FIM MotoGP™ Results Guide is an essential reference on Grand Prix racing for everybody involved or interested in the sport and a perfect working tool for the media.
Names of riders, names of motorcycle brands, Grand Prix races, circuits, dates, classes, etc: everything is in this book - it's a real gold mine of Grand Prix Racing.
Vito IPPOLITO, President FIM (left) and Guy MAITRE, CEO FIM (right) present Werner HAEFLIGER, author of the FIM MotoGP™ Results Guide with the FIM Motorcycling Merit Diploma at the 2007 Biennial FIM Session in Geneva, Switzerland.
For everyone involved in Grand Prix racing, from fans and media correspondents, to organisers, sponsors, statisticians, teams and even the riders themselves, the FIM MotoGP™ Results Guide
has long been the definitive reference point on the history of the oldest World Championship in motorsports, dating back to 1949.

I've just finished negotiating yet another compromise agreement under the Bar Council's Direct Access provisions.
Being made redundant is a traumatic and difficult time for anyone. Whilst some may treat the termination of their employment with a sense of relief, there is often the lingering sense of abandonment, of not knowing what's around the corner. I think it's important for those of us who are responsible for fighting on behalf of our clients to remember that there are good reasons to strive for the highest settlement possible.
Slowly more and more people are waking up to the realisation that they can instruct a barrister directly, for a large and increasing number of problems they might face. It's not always legal work - I have a skill-set, developed through nearly 15 years of advocacy experience that is invaluable to many, in many different areas of business. More about that in a later post.
One of our most prized skills at the Bar is our ability to negotiate. It's not just something we learn on the job; it's part of our training, deeply embedded in the mind of any advocate. All those studying for their Bar exams are trained and examined in negotiation skills, such is the importance placed upon them.
When we start in practice, and build our work over the years, we find ourselves using and honing these skills on a daily basis. Almost every aspect of legal practice demands you negotiate effectively. I find these skills invaluable when negotiating employment settlements, and have had considerable success as a result. Often I find myself negotiating with someone in HR, with little experience or skill when it comes to persuading the other side. That's not to say such an adversary is easy to deal with -often they assume an entrenched position early on, and I need to find ways to get around that position. The skill in negotiating, as all advocacy is being able to view things from a number of perspectives.
It's for those reasons that more and more people are turning to barristers to negotiate on their behalf. We have the skills, and we're very good at it. Everywhere you look in business or law there is a need for negotiation, to come to agreements where both sides give and take until they reach the best possible deal for whomever they are representing. As a barrister particularly, it's very easy to fall into the trap of thinking that your ability to negotiate is confined to the strictures of the courtroom, or conference room, and that there is no way anyone in business could possibly have any use for a barrister.
Many of us have the talent, skills and ability. It's just a question of marketing - getting the message out there, that a barrister is an important weapon in any business armoury.

Review: Neewer NW-800 Microphpne
9 months ago Jack 0
For recording artists just starting out, acquiring equipment can seem almost impossible to do on a budget. Professionals may have dozens of microphones, recording environment acoustic treatments, amplifiers, monitors, and more. A person has to start budgeting by the thousand to accumulate all of that. There are cheaper, and even dirt cheap options that can get you started though. This one, the Neewer NW-800, is the latter.
I've used PA type equipment, industry standard gear, and the cheapest stuff you can find. I bought this Neewer NW-800 mic on Amazon to use with a very cheap USB audio interface for voice over work. The microphone, boom arm, windscreen/pop filter, XLR cable, and interface cost a total of around $85 (I think). Previously, I bought into the "Focusrite is best", "buy the fancy stuff" mentality and had spent around $350-400 on a setup. The juxtaposition of how much I spent versus how much I used it put a strain on my wallet (and stomach) that I just couldn't handle.
When I switched to this Neewer NW-800, I quickly learned that my other setup noticeably exceeded the quality of this one. It wasn't enough to justify the price difference though. See, my voice is pretty awful. I hate hearing myself speak as much as I hate writing the word "I"; which is a lot. To date, no microphone successfully made my voice sound smooth, rich, soothing, or otherwise appealing. To my ear, this microphone lacks in the lower frequencies and adds a little noise to the system. That said, Audacity can equalize and clean up the sound enough for my taste.
What you really need to know about this microphone, from a practical point of view, is that it will most likely surpass your gaming headset or cheap stick microphone.
On to the Product
The product link I shared above matches pretty closely what I bought. You get the microphone, a shock mount to absorb motion and handling noise, a foam wind screen that doubles as a pop filter, and an XLR to microphone jack cable.
A stand for the microphone doesn't come with the kit. Something like these should work for you.
I'm using a boom arm almost exactly like the one linked, but it may be slightly different. These are extremely inexpensive, so don't expect maximum durability or quality.
Also, keep in mind that this is a "side address" microphone. That means that you talk into it from the side, not the top. In other words, the axis of symmetry of the microphone doesn't point at you when you speak.
The XLR to 3.5mm microphone jack cable is sufficient for most systems. I can't tell if there are any specific requirements about powering the microphone from a mic jack. I lack confidence in the information I've read in the past. My computer powers it well, but the sound quality pales in comparison to providing the mic with phantom power through a dedicated recording interface like this one:
My recommendation is that, if you can stomach the cost, buy an interface and an XLR male to female cable to connect this microphone to your PC. If you don't choose an interface, you should still hear some improvement over smaller and more standard PC microphones.
This microphone gets the job done. If you want to start making YouTube videos on a tight budget with decent quality voice overs, this can work. You should note that the mic is also available under a number of different names with slight modifications. They all seem to have names like NW-800 or EB-800. I don't have the time to check for differences between them all.

While Your DVD Editor was on vacation last week, our good friends at The Digital Bits reported a tidbit that I had to put up as well-- that sometime around the holidays this year (the end of 2000) both Jaws and Jurassic Park will be hitting shelves.
We've also heard that Jaws, for one, is getting a super-duper hot-dog treatment-- we can only hope that includes a commentary track or two by the principals, or even, dare we hope, Spielberg himself?
Anyway, it's a quick-and-dirty news item, but one that certainly bears mentioning.

A definition and history of the Hadrian's wall
|Northern British Campaigns of Agricola, 80 – 84
While the wall did simply mark the northern boundary of the Roman Empire in Britain at the time, theories regarding the purpose of such a massive building project range from limiting immigration, to controlling smuggling, to keeping the indigenous people at bay north of the wall. Its military effectiveness has been questioned by many scholars over the years owing to its length and the positioning of the fortifications along the route. Regarding this, Professors Scarre and Fagan write,
Archaeologists and historians have long debated whether Hadrian's Wall was an effective military barrier…Whatever its military effectiveness, however, it was clearly a powerful symbol of Roman military might. The biographer of Hadrianremarks that the Emperor built the wall to separate the Romans from the barbarians. In the same way, the Chinese emperors built the Great Wall to separate China from the barbarous steppe peoples to the north. In both cases, in addition to any military function, the physical barriers served in the eyes of their builders to reinforce the conceptual divide between civilized and noncivilized. They were part of the ideology of empire. (Ancient Civilizations, 313)
This seems to be the best explanation for the underlying motive behind the construction of Hadrian's Wall. The Romans had been dealing with uprisings in Britain since their Conquest of the region. Although Rome's first contact with Britain was through Julius Caesar's expeditions there in 55/54 BCE, Rome did not begin any systematic conquest until the year 43 CE under the Emperor Claudius. The revolt of Boudicca of the Iceni in 60/61 CE resulted in the massacre of many Roman citizens and the destruction of major Cities (among them, Londinium, modern London) and, according to the HistorianTacitus (56-117 CE), fully demonstrated the barbaric ways of the Britons to the Roman mind. Boudicca's forces were defeated at The Battle of Watling Street by General Gaius Suetonius Paulinus in 61 CE. At the Battle of Mons Graupius, in the region which is now Scotland, the Roman General Gnaeus Julius Agricola won a decisive victory over the Caledonians under Calgacus in 83 CE. Both of these engagements, as well as the uprising in the north in 119 CE (suppressed by Falco) substantiated that the Romans were up to the task of managing the indigenous people of Britain. The suggestion that Hadrian's Wall, then, was built to hold back or somehow control the people of the north does not seem as likely as that it was constructed as a show of force. Hadrian's foreign policy was consistently "peace through strength" and the wall would have been an impressive illustration of that principle. In the same way that Julius Caesar built his famous bridge across the Rhine in 55 BCE simply to show that he, and therefore Rome, could go anywhere and do anything, Hadrian perhaps had his wall constructed for precisely the same purpose.
Emperor Hadrian (born Publius Aelius Hadrianus in 76 CE) ruled the Roman Empire from 117-138 CE. His building projects, especially in Greece, are legendary and his penchant for ambitious monuments is exemplified in his eponymous wall. The work was begun in stone (unlike other fortifications which began with timber) in the east and proceeded westward across uneven terrain to create an impressive reflection of the power of Rome. The wall was originally 9.7 feet wide (3 metres) and 16-20 feet high (six metres) east of the River Irthing, all built of stone, and 20 feet wide (6 metres) by 11feet high (3.5 metres) west of the river, made up of stone and turf, stretching 73 miles (120 km) across the breadth of the land. This ambitious building project was completed within six years through the labour of the Roman legions stationed in Britain. Plans for the construction of the wall were in place prior to Hadrian's visit to Britain in 122 CE and, perhaps, construction had already begun before the traditional date assigned for the initial work on the wall, possibly as early as 118 CE. There were between 14-17 fortifications along the length of the wall and a Vallum (a ditch purposefully constructed of earthworks) which ran parallel to the wall. The Vallum measured 20 feet (6 metres) wide by 10 feet (3 metres) deep, flanked by large mounds of tightly packed earth. It is this composition of the site which has given rise to the traditional interpretation of the wall as a defensive work built to repel invasion from the north.
The Vallum was built after the construction of the wall and the forts as evidenced by its deviation from existing ruins and the clear indication of causeways across the ditch at intervals which correspond to established Fortification sites. When the Antonine Wall was constructed further north (in c. 142 CE by Emperor Antoninus Pius) the Vallum appears to have been partially filled in for easier passage. The Antonine Wall was built after Hadrian's Wall had been abandoned as an outpost and was positioned further to the north in present-day Scotland between the Firth of Forth and the Firth of Clyde. The Antonine Wall was perhaps constructed to serve the same purpose as Hadrian's Wall, and included the Vallum, but is thought to have functioned more pragmatically than Hadrian's construct. Hadrian's Wall is thought to have been plastered and white washed so that it would be a shining beacon of the might of Rome, visible from considerable distances. The Antonine Wall does not suggest this same grandeur nor, in spite of the many fortifications along its route, the same intent in design and construction. Emperor Marcus Aurelius (ruled 161-180 CE) drew the Roman legions back from the Antonine Wall to Hadrian's Wall under his reign and fortified the garrisons in his efforts to maintain the boundaries of the Empire. Hadrian's great monument to Rome's might continued as an impressive affirmation until 410 CE when the Roman legions left Britain. Activity around and along the wall seems to have continued as evidenced by archaeological finds but a disciplined Roman presence after 410 is not signified.
Following the Roman withdrawal, large portions of the wall were carried off for personal building projects by the local inhabitants. Huge sections were removed to provide paving for British troops heading north on muddy tracks to quell the Jacobite Uprising of 1745 CE. Hadrian's Wall may have disappeared entirely were it not for the efforts of one man, the antiquarian John Clayton (1792-1890 CE) who, in 1834 CE, began buying the land around the wall in an effort to preserve it. Clayton's excavations and enthusiasm for the site kept what remains of Hadrian's Wall intact and, in 1987 CE, it was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Today it is under the care of English Heritage commission and is cared for largely by volunteers who recognize its immense historical significance.

Churchgoers say they tithe, but not always to churchNASHVILLE (BP) -- Most churchgoers say the Bible commands them to give. But their tithes don't always go in the offering plate.
Half of Protestant churchgoers say their tithes can go to a Christian ministry rather than a church, compared to what is often taught by pastors and Bible study aids.
A third say tithes can go to help an individual in need and nearly one in five say tithes can even go a secular charity, according to a new study by Nashville-based LifeWay Research. Read More

"God entrusts us with His resources; not to save them for a rainy day, nor to bury them in the ground, but to utilize them to make disciples," Carne told Hamilton Baptist. "I don't want Jesus to return and say to us, 'What have you done with what I have entrusted to you?' Read More

Ninja Scroll TV
Title: Jubei Ninpucho, Ninja Scroll TV
Genre: Action
number of episodes: 13
Plot = B+
Characters = B-
Music = B-
Overall = B
General Outlook:
This is the direct continuation of Ninja Scroll as we know it. Some fans may know about that "resurrection" thing, but as far as this is concerned and you as well, lets pretend it never happened.(seems the creators do that anyway so play along its better that way). Jubei is a wayward ninja, who is content to travel the highways and byways of life. His dark past has been settled and he doesnt wish to fight anymore. However life often has other plans. Jubei finds his restful existance disrupted one night by a fight between two groups of enemy ninjas, both chasing one man who is carrying a sacred jewel. Obligated to intervene, lest he get no sleep, he finds out that despite his best efforts(refusing to work for the man with the jewel and leaving his seperate ways) he cant escape this strange fate surrounding this jewel. On his journey he meets the rightful "owner" of the jewel. A young woman, whom the two organizations call the Priestess of Light. A young woman in charge of a small hidden ninja village, she too finds herself and her fate intertwined with the jewel, and Jubei. Along with some other faces, both new and familar they must make a journey to discover the secret behind this gem and those who are after it.
Well the opening is kinda themed for the period, but not too enticing after a while. I always skipped through it, as i imagine you will too. The ending theme was similar, but i still enjoyed it all the way through. The other music ranges from dramtic overtones, to heavy battles, and varies in between. It is all fitting, but not standoutish in any way.
Character design is excellent. From the assortment of villians and compatriots, to the main characters themselves everything is quality. As a female compatriot added while watching the series "Oooh, They made Jubei hot in this". The characters on the main side are:
Jubei- Wandering ninja, swordsman. He has lived by his sword and his wits for years and wants nothing more out of life than he has. His skills are often called upon by both enemys and friends alike.
Shigure, Priestess of Light- Young, unknowing of the world and with a fragile veneer of strength over all her fears. She carrys the burden of the journey and what happens as a result with her and ultimately all the fates of those with the jewel rests with her.
Dakuan,Old Man- Dressed like a monk, but clearly not a member of the clergy. This familar face helps out with his advice when he can and his sneaky hands whenever.
Tsubate- A young thief, who finds himself helping the group despite his best interests. Not a great fighter but very adapt at running away, he helps Shigure more often than not but still trys to get his hands on the jewel she has(which he figures must be worth something if others want it so bad)..
The Hiruko Ninja- They want the Priestess to help them for some unknown cause, and often come into conflict with both the main heroes and the enemy ninja group the Kimon Shu.
The Kimon Shu- They also want the jewel and the priestess but there purposes seem much more dark and their aims far more violent. It is they who target the priestess and all those around her, and ulitmately are the real villans of the series.
My Thoughts(and spoilers):
I had originally watched the first 3 episodes of this series, close to 2 years ago when it first aired in japan. I thought it was good then, but i never got a chance to finish it as it was quickly licensed by an american company. Having finally watched it, im glad i did. It is an excellent series. I have had the bad taste of Ressurection in my mouth for years, and finally something came along and took it out. Ninja Scroll TV is everything i could have wanted, just a lil shorter than i could have had. I was easily settled in for a long haul, 26 episodes series, but ended up with 13. It still finishes with a ending that made me happy, but perhaps others would call rushed. Though i feel some of the enemys could have gotten more attention and work thus improving the series as a whole, i feel it was still pretty good for what it was. A nice short lil OVA-ish shot of Ninja Scroll. Lots of action, some interesting characters, good story, and oh yeah action. Just the thing to remind you that NO Ressurection isnt what happened after the movie, and make your day so much better for it.

Mills Cemetery
Also known as Garland Cemetery
Rt 66
Garland, Dallas County, Texas, USA Show Map
|2,507 added (88% photographed)
Mills Cemetery was established after Edward C. Mills lost his wife Elizabeth Collins Mills in 1854. She was buried on, what was once their farm. The area at that time was known as Peters Colony and wasn't incorporated as Garland until 1891. This land was donated by John Mills to be a cemetery. Bordered by Centerville Road and Commerce Streets with Mills Road running down its middle. Elizabeth's grave is the oldest in the cemetery. There are signs above 2 of the several entrances, one for "Mills Cemetery" and another for "Garland Cemetery", which creates confusion with the Garland Mills Pioneer Cemetery and the Garland Memorial Cemetery. Even the Google map has it misspelled as Miles Cemetery. This cemetery has many beautiful trees that are very old. Victims of the cities devastating 1927 tornado are also buried here.

My name is Zach Krage, and I am the Secondary I learning leader here at Riverway Learning Community. This is my fifth year at Riverway and my fourth year in the Secondary. Soon after graduating from Winona State University where I received my teaching license, I started my career at RLC as a paraprofessional in the Elementary I classroom. The following year I accepted the position as the SI learning leader.
I, like all the learning leaders here at Riverway, wear many hats. I teach three sections of English to grades seven through twelve. I facilitate project-based learning at the Secondary I level. I also facilitate a daily literature circle. In past years I have served on the RLC Board of Directors and have taught art, guitar, and physical education.
Outside of school, I lead a very active life. I live in Winona with my wife, Lindsay, and my son, Julian, and we spend a lot of time remodeling our 125 year old home. My favorite activities are reading books in hammocks, skateboarding, playing guitar, riding bicycles and vintage motorcycles, and vacationing with the fam.
I enjoy learning new things, and I believe that students should be lifelong learners who strive to always better themselves and the world around them. At the Secondary I level, our goal is to lay the foundations that students can build upon in their future as self-driven learners.

It seems like new colorways of the adidas Yeezy 350 Boost are popping up left and right. Here we have another colorway that's being known as the "Beluga" version. It's not as white as the one that Kanye wore for the James Harden party and it's not tan/brown like the one that he pulled out for the MTV VMAs on Sunday. The good thing about this new colorway is that these are more likely to release than both of those.
Take a good look at the sneaker above and let us know if you would like to cop this colorway down the line.

Author's Take
This color looks too similar to the all white one that we already saw. I guess if the all white doesn't release this is a good alternative.

All those Independence Day festivities are right around the corner. If you are like most Americans (and my family), that means plenty of food and drinks.
Want a fun (and simple) drink that will be the hit of the buffet table?
This FLAG JUICE is my favorite punch for patriotic festivities. It looks great, tastes yummy, and gets lots of attention.
Bonus: This red, white and blue punch is a snap to make. (That means you still have plenty of time to whip it up for your 4th of July barbecue. Promise.)
- Cranberry juice (not cranberry juice cocktail)
- Blue Gatorade
- Sprite Zero
(Note: The amount of each drink shouldn't matter. I aim for about a liter of each drink, depending on the size of the container. If you want more of a certain color, just add more of that drink.)
- Clean and prep a clear container with a spout at the bottom.
- Start by pouring the entire jug of cranberry juice into a canister.
- Fill the with ice above the juice and then slowly pour a large bottle of blue Gatorade on top of the ice. (The Gatorade should touch the ice and stay on top of the red drink.)
- Finish with more ice to the top and a liter of Sprite Zero, pouring slowly.
The magic of this drink is that the colors remain separated in the container, even when you put it into glasses. (It does mix in the glass.) It's edible science – all dependent on the sugar content of the drinks.
And don't think that this is only a summer drink. It is fun all year! It made a great addition to a superhero party. (See the whole superhero training academy here.)
What do you think? Will this be on your menu for the weekend?

determined a higher trick to approve PayPal in Pakistan & get absolutely accepted and established PayPal account in Pakistan.
In past, many people tried to verify PayPal with Payoneer. But now PayPal launched new technique called mobile phone number verification service to approve PayPal account. TipsStuff.tK has discovered a perfect technique to verify PayPal account through Mobile Number Verificationwithout any charge.
Step 1:
Open your Google Chrome Browser and go to Chrome Web Store. Find any good Proxy Provider Extension who can change your IP address to United States of America. I prefer you to use Hola Proxy extension. Because it is easy to use and provide you good result.
Note:Without the Proxy, We can't access PayPal registration service.
Step 2:
Open PayPal Official Website and Click on Sign Up Button on the top left of the webpage or click here. Fill up the information in the form and go to next step.
We can't use Pakistani name and address in PayPal. So, we need USA Identity to verify. Don't worry open FakeNameGenrator website and generate and USA Fake Identity. Copy all the given information like Name, Address, Postal Code and State and fill the form.
Now you need a USA Mobile Phone Number to verify PayPal account in Pakistan. Where we get USA Phone Number to verify?. Don' worry only you need an Android Mobile. If you have then install an application from PlayStore named TextNow. You will get a phone number from the application. Enter this phone number to PayPal accout for verification.
Now finally PayPal account is created successfully. Now verify PayPal account with your email. Now the main issue is connecting your PayPal account with your bank account. Follow the steps described below and you will get verified.
Connecting PayPal account with Bank:
As you know we can't connect PayPal with any Pakistani Bank. So, now we are going to connect PayPal account with the United States Bank. I recommend you to use Payoneer Bank Account because PayPal accept Payoneer easily and Payoneer is easy to verify in Pakistan.
You need Payoneer account to verify PayPal account in Pakistan. If you don't have the Payoneer account you can Sign Up for Payoneer Account here. If you already have the Payoneer account let's verify PayPal account with Payoneer account.
Now go to Payoneer account and click on the Global Payment Services and you will get Routing number and account number as shown in picture/screenshot. I have entered routing number as shown in pictures/screenshot copy the routing number account number.
Open your PayPal account and enter the information you copied out of your Payoneer account and click on Link Bank. Now inside 2 days PayPal will deposit small quantity much less than 1$ into your Payoneer account for verification wait for two days and take a look at the e-mail you'll get an email.

Second, blogs hosted on BlogSpot must display Blogger's navigation bar across the top of the page. Finally, BlogSpot does not currently allow you to store images or other non-blog files and so you must keep these at a separate Web host.
