Preview and Predictions | NA LCS Spring Finals
Grand Finals: Team SoloMid vs. Cloud9
Start Time: April 23th, 12:00 AM PDT/ 03:00 PM EDT/ 08:00 PM BST/ 21:00 CEST
Cloud 9 definitely had a tumble during the Spring Split and this let TSM climb to the top, TSM have been the reigning #1 champions of the Spring Split ladder since and have rarely ran into issues. Cloud9 had the stronger performances during the final week of the Spring Split but the previous few weeks were dominated by TSM. It's quite back and forth between these 2 teams but they're going to need to be prepared if they want to take the crown! Who will come out on top? Tune into the series when it goes live on Sunday, April 23rd, to find out!
Team Solo Mid – TSM fell to Team Liquid during the final week of the Spring Split but when it came to performing in the Playoffs they put on a set of absolutely dominating matches against FlyQuest. They took a clean series and looked extremely formidable. But Cloud 9 will be a completely different matter and will require a lot more preparation for, is TSM ready?
Cloud 9 – C9 definitely had a harder time during the final weeks of the Spring Split but they've definitely bounced back. During the Spring Playoffs Semi-Finals they, similar to TSM, took a clean series and had shown absolute domination. If they're performing on that same level they're definitely going to pack punches as they prepared to take that #1 spot.
Team Solo Mid look like a slight favourite here but with how well Cloud 9 were able to perform recently it brings into question just how small any advantage could be. Team Solo Mid might have been able to put on a streak of stronger performances during the Spring Split but that was quite a while ago now, teams have made improvements and even though TSM put on an astounding set of performances against FLY they were unable to take down a top performing C9 previously. C9 could definitely swing the series if they gain momentum, taking a single game could sway the series and TSM are going to need to tread carefully at the start; C9's jungler has been on a huge upswing and could quickly give C9 the tools to take a game. TSM should focus on their lanes; their top laner definitely has an advantage in this series as he's more versatile and adaptable. They're going to need him around the middle stages of the game when they attempt to bully C9 with superior team fighting.
Prediction: Cloud 9 Victory. Cloud9's jungler has been a huge issue for every encountered team lately, if he gets onto an aggressive jungler he's able to quickly give C9 an advantage and can then create opportunities later on. I think this could catch TSM out and will give C9 advantages throughout the series, slowly leading to a TSM loss and a C9 Victory. It's going to be an uphill battle and I expect TSM to take a few games but I'm siding with Cloud 9 to take this series.

Larry Donnell caught six touchdown passes for the New York Giants this season. He caught a Giant break in New York this morning.
The tight end emerged unscathed from a plane that skidded off the runway at LaGuardia Airport on Thursday.
"I'm blessed to be safe and sound after our plane skidded off the runway at LaGuardia airport today," the third year player noted in a statement released by his team. "I feel fine physically and hopefully all the other passengers did not have any significant injuries. We were all shocked and alarmed when the plane started to skid, but most importantly, as far as I know, all of the passengers and flight crew were able to exit the plane safely."
Six passengers endured non-life-threatening injuries. The plane ascended a barrier hill, crashed through a fence, and nearly plunged into Flushing Bay after touching down.
After his six touchdowns, and 63 receptions, Donnell traveled to New York to renew his contract with the Giants.
In case anyone doubted, the Grambling State product's Instagram account, now buttressed by today's near miss, informs: "Blessed and highly favored."

Underwhelming Fossil Fish of the Month: May
By Mark Carnall, on 28 May 2013
It was inevitable I guess. A mere six months into this wonderful voyage through the underwhelming fossil fish of the Grant Museum I'm throwing in the grass roots, voice-of-the-internet, fighting for the underdog, black and white film with a subtitles nature of these posts. In short, this month is when underwhelming fossil fish of the month is selling out.
I want to apologise to the loyal fans of this series and thank you for your support but pressure from the sponsors has meant that my hand has been forced and I've no alternative but to go for the mass appeal fossil fish. The fossil fish that sell ideas. The fossil fish that make it into TIME magazine and all those rich lists. You've got to have chops to cut it in this hyper competitive ruthless world of blogs about fossil fish. So with a heavy heart let's have a look at this lovely large specimen of a shark, no less, Cladoselache. I know, I know, you've all heard of it. Just cherish the memories of when the fossil fish were underwhelming and not as Hollywood as this genus of Devonian chondrichthyan. (more…)

Most relationships go through a gray" trial period the place each partners are uncertain in the event that they're on the identical web page with emotions and the status of the relationship. If you take the route of not going there," make sure you be mindful of what you are doing around them as a result of you do not need to tease them or give them false hope. It's tough sufficient for them to cope with the rejection; don't add to the issue. You may expect to have a better perceive of what makes for a wholesome and lasting relationship. Whether you are single and looking for a special somebody or married and making an attempt to keep issues together, you'll be taught ideas and tools for making sure your relationship enriches your life.
Learn how to be the person you wish to be from this second on. I not too long ago had a 14 year previous girl speak in confidence to me after a lesson – she defined she had hair growing around her genitals and needed to know what was flawed together with her. She'd never seen a vulva that wasn't utterly bald, and genuinely believed her physique hair was unnatural and irregular.
We do not and by no means have lived collectively, we each personal separate houses, however we spend 90% of our time collectively, and at every others homes. If you like what you will have learn, please consider making a small donation to help toward compensating the loss of regular income because of disclosing this data. Eleanor Oliphant is glad. Nothing is lacking from her rigorously timetabled life. Besides, sometimes, every part.
My friend Steffany has a concept I like a lot about queer relationship and relationships. As we develop closer to somebody, we turn into higher at guessing what she or he might want, need and assume – however we're still solely guessing. You possibly can't count on your partner to read your thoughts – in order for you your needs met, you have to state them clearly.
To be read and be seen!—The Date Combine's articles are seen by our readers and are additionally shared all through the internet via the social channels of Zoosk, the web courting website and app we're owned and operated by. That includes Zoosk's over 13,000,000 followers on Fb. Many people believe preventing is incompatible with love – however in reality, even the healthiest relationships involve friction. Keep in mind you and your associate are distinctive people, whose differing factors of view will be a possibility for growth.

Blooming Tree Big-Cuts Craft How-To
What better way to celebrate the return of colorful blossoms and green leaves then by making a Big Cut Tree that is full of blooming color! After painting a brown trunk and green leaves, you can affix tissue flowers with a special technique by twisting them into glue and then onto this 12" wide tree with a round popstick. Add a bird in a nest for a warm touch, and adorn your walls with this cheerful spring craft!
Supplies Box
- Hygloss Big Cut-Outs Tree
- Paint in Brown, Green, Yellow and White
- Tissue Squares in different Shades of Pink
- Bright Paper in 2 Shades of Blue
- Small piece of cardboard
- Round Colorstix Popstix
- Paintbrush
- Paper plates for mixing paint colors
- Glue Stick
- Mix a range of brown paint shades by putting small dots of brown around the sides of a paper plate. Gradually add an incremental amount of white paint to each brown dot (except one which will stay the tone from the bottle) until you have a full palette. (You could also add incremental amounts of black paint to make shades darker than the bottle color.) Paint the trunk of the tree with these colors, extending branches up into the rounded top of the tree.
- Create a range of green paint shades on another paper plate, using tiny dots of green paint (or mix your own from yellow and blue) and increasing amounts of white or yellow to achieve different hues of green. Paint leaves on the cloud-like top of the tree, filling the white paper with color.
- Sort out the colors of tissue squares you want to use. Lay them in a pile alongside your glue and a popstick.
- Dab a tiny bit of glue onto the popstick end and use it to pick up a single tissue square. Place the square onto the end of the gluestick and twist slightly to add glue to the bottom of the square. Find a spot on the top of the tree to place your square and twist it down into place, removing the popstick as you twist. Repeat with as many squares as desired. (Twist the colors down in order from darkest to lightest for a cool ombrè effect.)
- Cut a freehand small bird from Light Blue Paper. Layer this with a slightly darker bit of blue paper for a 3-D look. Using brown paint, give the bird a tiny eye and create a small beak with yellow paint.
- Cut a little nest shape from cardboard and dab it with brown paint for texture / detail.
- Affix the bird to the nest and place it in the tree.
- Hang your beautiful spring craft anywhere you want to bring a bit of nature inside and enjoy!

Dandelion Jam!
We were caught up in an odd urge to make dandelion jam the other day. We followed the recipe on the above site.
It only took me & the 2 boys less than 10 min to pick enough. Getting the green parts off, so I'd have just the yellow left is another matter. That is tedious! I was doing it by myself & it took me an hour to get the 4 cups necessary!
I was quite nervous about tasting it. Honestly, I'm not a big vegetable lover. But this stuff was GOOD. It was kind of like honey, but with a bit of tart. The word to that came to my mind is that it tasted like summer! After the work was done & we tasted it, I thought it was worth all the work. Probably even more so to open some of this on a cold winter day!
I love that I can make this with something that grows free all around. Now I'm debating...I spend a lot of money every summer on weed-b-gone trying to get rid of the dandelions in the lawn. But my rabbits love dandelions, & now we do too. But am I quite ready to turn the lawn over to them? I'm just not sure!
I did have one trouble with the recipe. The jam didn't jell. I've never had that happen before. Looking online, it seems to be a common problem with dandelion jam. I tried some online instructions for adding more pectin, & that didn't work either. So I was left with tasty dandelion syrup (using recipe posted above). I finally tried the instructions in the pectin for adding another box if it didn't set. This worked, but it was a much smaller amount of jam than your usual recipe. I'll try it again when I'm up to doing the dandelions again; I think I'll double the pectin in the recipe & see if that works.
For some reason I found making this to be hugely satisfying. I'm so glad we did it & excited to share it!

On November 22, I happened to be at Boston's south station and had the privilege of visiting Occupy Boston. Dewey Square is situated at the foot of the Federal Reserve's Boston branch, and as I arrived, an End the Fed protest was concluding. It was a damp and quiet day at the encampment. I took the opportunity to take some video from the scene.
Some areas of the occupation appeared more welcoming, looked, and smelled better than others. Wooden planks were placed over pathways where rain would create muddy earth, making for cleaner, safer walkways. Warm food was being served for the duration of the two hours that I was present. Solar panels, as well as a battery charged by a stationary bicycle were being used as energy sources. A small police presence was maintained on the sidewalks surrounding the occupation, but police did not seem anxious to enter the encampment.

Following the GFC, increased regulatory emphasis has been on greater transparency and control of the banks process and systems, specifically across resolution and recovery planning - referred to as Dodd-Frank Planning and Living Will compliance.
Conventionally bank IT systems have been constructed along business lines, with resources being shared across business units. The new regulatory environment requires that regulators be able to take control of a failing entity before working capital funds are exhausted, and if need be, close down selected business units or break-up the institution.
Recovery and Resolution Planning requires that the existing systems and processes be precisely described. Additionally, R&R Planning requires that all IT resources be organised by legal entity rather than by business line. This requires existing IT systems to be substantially reconfigured and re-implemented. If addressed manually, both of these regulatory demands will require considerable resources involving a significant amount of time and enormous effort.
The HELIXsystem Process Assembler (HSPA) can automate much of this task. The HSPA is able to capture and describe all human-to-machine, machine-to-machine, (or point to point) and messaging middleware interactions with a precision and clarity that will satisfy even the most demanding regulator – and it will automatically maintain and update this description as the implementation changes.
Once the systems processing logic has been captured, with a single-click download, the HSPA will generate a PDF containing a both a narrative of the existing implementation as well as a set of BPMN2 diagrams that precisely and unambiguously describe how the processing logic executes. This output is available on-demand, and updates automatically every time a a system change is introduced.
The HSPA automates the generation of the initial set of Living Will, R&R Planning documents and automatically maintains these documents to ensure sustained continuous compliance.

Drake says he's releasing a new project—or "playlist"—called More Life this December.
Careful to distinguish that he's not referring to it as a "mixtape" (a term which become loosely interpreted in recent years), Drizzy shared the news Sunday afternoon during a special birthday episode of his OVO Sound Radio show on Beats 1.
The Toronto emcee back in April released his album Views, which ultimately spent 13 weeks at No. 1 on the U.S. charts.
Ahead of his 30th birthday on Monday, Drake also shared the artwork for More Life, which can be seen below. He said his intention with the new release is to "provide a soundtrack to your life."
Update: Drake has also released three new songs, "Two Birds One Stone"; "Sneakin," featuring 21 Savage; "Fake Love" and a remix of British rapper Dave's "Wanna Know." Listen to the tracks here as they become available.

Before I knew you were mine I prayed for you,
I said a prayer for the one God would choose for me.
I cared for you and continued to pray for your safety, your health and for you to come to know the Lord.
I prayed for strength for your heart and for your soul.
I trusted you to God, knowing He loved you more than I could.
And I prayed that you felt His love.
Sometimes when I was disheartened and would forget that you existed,
I went about my way and made my mistakes, but I always came back to you.
I knew God would bring you to me and I continued to pray for you.
I wonder when you accepted Christ and made Him your savior, if it was a day in which I prayed.
I wonder for the times when you were hurting, if God brushed my love for you across your forehead and gave you peace to sleep through the night.
I wonder if you knew I was out there somewhere searching for you.
For all the years I prayed and felt we hadn't yet met, little did I know that I knew you from the start.
My eyes remember the beautiful baby I saw and wanted to hold. God knew even then.
The sketchy memories of our childhood days are like distant stars we can barely see.
But somehow our souls were still connected and finding their way back to each other.
I cannot describe this love that is deeper than any love I have ever known,
But I knew I loved you …before I knew you were mine.

What was initially thought to be a weather balloon was actually a giant Google balloon that crash-landed in southern California's Chino Hills neighborhood Saturday morning.
No neighborhood residents were injured when the Google Loon project balloon landed in a palm tree next to a woman's home. CBS San Francisco reported that rumors spread that the deflated 50-foot object was a weather balloon headed from Las Vegas, Nevada to Japan.
Residence owner Janet Olaffson remarked, "We ran out, and the police said don't go near it." According to CBS SF it was Sheriff's deputies that first informed the woman that the balloon was sitting in her palm tree.
"We're getting to the point where we can roll out thousands of balloons," Project Loon Lead Mike Cassidy said in an informational video on the project. "The goal of Project Loon is to bring Internet to the almost two out of three people in the world who don't have Internet access today and we're doing that using high altitude balloons."
Manufacturing and mission control systems have to be developed as part of the project, according to Cassidy.
"Now our balloons last almost a hundred days," Cassidy said.
CBS San Francisco reported that according to Google the balloon that crashed Saturday was supposed to land nearby, not in Japan.
According to the Loon website:
Each balloon can provide connectivity to a ground area about 40 km in diameter using a wireless communications technology called LTE. To use LTE, Project Loon partners with telecommunications companies to share cellular spectrum so that people will be able to access the Internet everywhere directly from their phones and other LTE-enabled devices. Balloons relay wireless traffic from cell phones and other devices back to the global Internet using high-speed links.
The giant balloon created quite the stir, drawing people from all around to see the strange looking object.

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, USA — October 19, 2017 — After two seasons of use, a special feature included in the Markey towing winches onboard three Foss Arctic-class tugs has proven to be very useful for operations requiring a "tight leash" on the tow.
The three most recent additions to the Foss fleet, the Arctic-class tugs Michele Foss, Denise Foss and Nicole Foss, are all equipped with Markey model TDSD−40UL towing winches including a "water-cooled variable-slip" (WCVS) braking feature.
Operating similarly to a "star drag" setting on a sports fishing reel, the WCVS allows the captain to set a tension slip-point to compensate for the lack of catenary when a tow is pulled close to a tug. This technology has proven extremely useful for crossing a bar or operating in confined waterways.
Based on water-cooled brake and clutch technology proven through years of use in the company's high-response electric Escort and Ship-Assist hawser winches, these were the first Markey towing winches to incorporate this option. The use of a WCVS brake was also driven by Markey's familiarity with previous methods used to achieve some level of controllable slip using band brakes, having offered such a system on Class II hydraulic hawser winches for over 25 years. The new system Markey now offers has a number of clear advantages:
Due to the nature of band brakes, brake materials, and the environmental conditions in which they operate, it is very difficult to establish a reliable and repeatable tension set point using that type of system. This is not the case with WCVS brakes due to the unique combination of materials and water cooling, which results in an exceptionally smooth transition from static to dynamic operation.
As with any new innovation, both Markey and Foss encountered a learning curve during initial deployment. Since then, the WCVS systems have been accruing operating hours in a variety of difficult towing conditions. When asked about the variable slip feature of the winches, Foss Captains and Chief Engineer of the three tugs, gave positive reviews of their experience so far:
"I think the brake is great when used in applications like short wire ocean towing/bar crossing or something like a Panama Canal transit with a heavy load or without much surge gear." Captain Justin Earl
"I love those slip brakes. And in heavy seas that system is worth its weight in gold for letting out wire safely." Captain Raymond "Todd" Zacke
"Works great from my side. Nothing I would change, all great stuff." Captain Donald "Dwaine" Whitney
"They are perfect for West Coast bar crossings in heavy weather, never putting too much tension on the wire or letting too much wire slip at a time. I personally used it to slowly let wire out in shallow water departing Panama Canal on the east side of the El Yonque tow. Worked great with minimal adjustments. Never dragged the wire and never got too tight. I find the brake is easy to operate." Daniel Kimball – Chief Engineer

Key Findings: Children's lives are influenced by the resources and care provided by parents, siblings, and other adults that they live with, as well as by whether their parents are married. The World Family Map reports these key indicators of family structure in this section.
- Although two-parent families are becoming less common in many regions, they still constitute a majority of families around the globe. Children are particularly likely to live in two-parent families in Asia and the Middle East. They are more likely to live with one or no parent in the Americas, Europe, Oceania, and sub-Saharan Africa than in other regions.
- Extended families, which include parent(s) and kin from outside the nuclear family, are common in Asia, the Middle East, Central/South America, and sub-Saharan Africa, but not in other regions of the world.
- Marriage rates are declining in many regions. Adults are most likely to be married in Asia and the Middle East, and are least likely to be married in Central/South America, with Africa, Europe, North America, and Oceania falling in between. Cohabitation (living together without marriage) is more prevalent among couples in Europe, North America, Oceania, and, to an especially high degree, Central/South America.
- Childbearing rates are declining worldwide. Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest fertility rates of any region; for instance, in Nigeria, a woman gives birth to an average of 6.0 children over her lifetime. Moderate rates of fertility are found in the Middle East, while the Americas and Oceania have levels of fertility that are sufficient to replace, but not expand, a country's population in the next generation (about 2.1). Below-replacement-level fertility is widespread in East Asia and Europe.
- Amid the decline in marriage rates, childbearing outside of marriage—or nonmarital childbearing—is increasing in many regions. Central/South America and Western Europe have the world's highest rates of nonmarital childbearing, with moderate rates found in North America, Oceania, and Eastern Europe. Countries in sub-Saharan Africa display varying rates of nonmarital childbearing, and the lowest rates are found in Asia and the Middle East.
Living Arrangements
Family living arrangements—how many parents are present in the household and whether the household includes other relatives—shape the character and contexts of children's lives and influence the human resources available to them. As evidenced in Figures 2 and 3, which are derived from IPUMS, DHS, and national censuses, the living arrangements that children experience vary substantially around the globe. And the distribution of children across these various types of family living arrangements is changing over time. The family strengths that are described in a subsequent section can be found in each type of family.
The regional patterns identified in this section suggest that children are especially likely to live with two parents and with extended family members in Asia and the Middle East. Extended families are likewise more common in Central/South America and sub-Saharan Africa, but in these two regions a relatively large minority of children's households contain a single parent or no parents. A sizeable minority of children also live with one parent in Western Europe, North America, and Oceania.
Living with kin is particularly common in much of Asia, the Middle East, Central/South America, and sub-Saharan Africa. In almost all of the countries in these regions, at least 40 percent of children live in households that include adults besides their parents, as Figure 2 shows. In many cases, these adults are extended family members. Indeed, at least half of children live with adults besides their parents in parts of Africa (65 percent in Ghana, 60 percent in Nigeria, 70 percent in South Africa, and 60 percent in Tanzania); Asia (50 percent in India); South America (55 percent in Colombia and Nicaragua); and the Middle East (58 percent in Turkey). Notably, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the percentage of children who live with additional adults dropped from 58 percent in 2007 to 49 percent in 2013 to 2014. In these regions, then, children are especially likely to be affected by their relationships with non-parental adults such as grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins, compared with children living in regions where extended family members play smaller roles in their day-to-day lives. Living with adults other than parents can generate benefits for children, but, depending on the circumstances, it can also produce difficulties such as overcrowding, violence, and abuse.2 It can also result from difficulties such as poverty, orphanhood, and parental incarceration.3
Whether in nuclear or extended family households, children are most apt to live with two parents (who could be biological parents, adoptive parents, or stepparents) in Asia and the Middle East. See Figure 3. According to the data available for the specific countries examined in these regions, more than 80 percent of children in Asia and the Middle East live with two parents, ranging from 85 percent in the Philippines and Indonesia to 94 percent in Jordan. Similarly, about 80 percent of children in European countries—from 76 percent in the United Kingdom to 89 percent in Italy and Poland—live in two-parent households. In the Americas, two-parent households are somewhat less prevalent: between 62 percent (Colombia) and 78 percent (Canada) of children are part of two-parent homes. The two-parent pattern is more mixed in sub-Saharan Africa, ranging widely from 36 percent in South Africa to 78 percent in Nigeria. Some of the children living with two parents are in households that also include extended family, as noted above.
In much of Central/South America and sub-Saharan Africa, children have higher odds of living with either one or neither of their parents than children in other regions. Between 12 percent (Nigeria) and 43 percent (South Africa) of children in these regions live with a single parent, and between 4 percent (Argentina) and 20 percent (South Africa and Uganda) of them live in homes without either of their parents. Among the South American countries in this study, Colombia had the highest percentage of children living without either of their parents: 11 percent. The high percentage of South African children living with one parent or without either parent—43 percent and 20 percent, respectively—reflects the legacy of AIDS, which left many children orphaned,4 and of apartheid, which produced high rates of labor migration.5
Finally, in North America, Oceania, and Europe, a substantial minority—about one-fifth—of children live in single-parent households, and less than 6 percent of kids live in households without at least one of their parents. In Eastern Europe, 11 to 15 percent of children live with a lone parent. In these regions, the United States (27 percent), the United Kingdom (24 percent), and New Zealand (24 percent) exhibit particularly high levels of single parenthood. Many European countries have projected that the proportion of children living with single parents will grow through 2030.6
The experiences of children growing up with one parent are diverse around the world. For example, previous editions of the World Family Map have shown that children in low-income countries living with one parent don't necessarily have negative experiences, and living with one parent appears to be associated with benefits for some children when it comes to education.

– Means the data for cohabitation were not available
Marriage and Cohabitation
The nature, function, and everyday experience of marriage vary tremendously around the world. Marriage looks and feels different in Sweden than it does in Saudi Arabia; in China, compared with Canada; and in Argentina, compared with Australia. Nevertheless, across time and space, in most societies, marriage has been an important institution for structuring adults' intimate relationships and connecting parents to one another and to any children that they have together.7 In particular, in many countries, marriage has played an important role in providing a stable context for bearing children, rearing them, and integrating fathers into their lives.8
However, today, the hold of the institution of marriage over the adult life course and the connection between marriage and parenthood differ significantly from one country to another. Dramatic increases in the prevalence of cohabitation, divorce, and nonmarital childbearing in the Americas, Europe, and Oceania over the last four decades suggest that the institution of marriage is becoming less relevant in these regions than in other regions.9 At the same time, the meaning of marriage appears to be shifting in much of the world. Marriage is becoming more of an option for adults, rather than a necessity for their and their children's survival. Cohabitation has emerged as a common precursor or alternative to marriage in many countries for any number of reasons. Adults may look for more flexibility or freedom in their relationships than marriage seems to offer, or they may feel that they do not have sufficient financial or emotional resources to marry, or they may perceive marriage as a risky undertaking, or simply unnecessary once they are cohabiting.10
Amid these changing patterns and perceptions, this section of the World Family Map measures the prevalence of marriage and cohabitation among adults in their prime childbearing and child-rearing years (18 to 49) around the globe. First we document the prevalence of the two forms of partnership combined, and then we discuss cohabitation and marriage separately.
Figure 4 displays information on adult partnerships compiled from censuses and surveys conducted around 2010 in 45 of the 49 selected countries. In most countries throughout the world, between 50 and 70 percent of adults of reproductive age are in either marital or cohabiting relationships. Exceptionally low levels of partnerships are found in South Africa and Chile, where less than half of adults are cohabiting or married. On the opposite side of the spectrum, more than 70 percent of 18- to 49-year-olds in India, the Philippines, and Uganda are partnered.
Partnerships are generally most prevalent in Asia and the Middle East, ranging from 50 (Taiwan) to 78 percent (Philippines). The figures are more moderate in sub-Saharan Africa, where—excluding South Africa, where adults are more likely to be single than anywhere else in the world—between 51 percent (Nigeria) and 70 percent (Uganda) of reproductive-age adults are partnered. Similarly, Eastern Europe shows partnership levels from 57 (Hungary) to 65 percent (Romania). Partnerships are least prominent in the Americas, Oceania, and Western Europe, where between 49 percent (Chile) and 67 percent (Bolivia) of adults are cohabiting or married.

– Means the data for cohabitation were not available
Adults aged 18 to 49 are most likely to be married in Asia and the Middle East, and are least likely to be married in Central/South America. Marriage levels fall in the moderate range (about half) in most of Europe, Oceania, and North America. Moreover, the data show that a larger percentage of adults are cohabiting in Europe and the Americas than in other regions.
As Figure 4 shows, between 47 (Singapore) and 77 percent (India) of the adult population in the Asian countries in our study are married, and marriage is even more common in the Middle East, where a clear majority of adults (between 55 [Israel] and 80 [Egypt] percent) are married.
By contrast, marriage patterns fall in the middle range, or are less consistent, in the Americas, Europe, and sub-Saharan Africa. In North America and Oceania, about half of 18- to 49-year old adults are married, ranging from 43 (Canada) to 63 percent (Mexico). Notably, the percentage of adults married in the United States fell from 52 percent in 2005 to 45 percent in 2010. In the sub-Saharan African countries studied, marriage patterns show a great deal of variation, with between 30 (South Africa) and 66 percent (Nigeria) of adults aged 18-49 married. Indeed, South Africa has one of the lowest marriage rates of any country included in our study, and the very lowest proportion of adults in unions (married or cohabiting) of any country was found in South Africa with just 43 percent of adults in unions. Among the European countries, between 37 (Sweden) and 60 percent (Romania) of adults aged 18-49 are married, with marriage clearly being more common in Eastern Europe. By contrast, in Central/South America, generally, less than half of adults are married, with the exception of Costa Rica and Paraguay; in Colombia, the proportion of married adults is a worldwide low 20 percent.
Figure 4 indicates that cohabitation is rare in Asia and the Middle East, two regions where relatively traditional mores still dominate family life. In fact, cohabitation is such a sensitive topic in these regions that some surveys do not ask about it. North America and Oceania exhibit moderate to high levels of cohabitation: Between 9 percent (New Zealand) and 19 percent (Canada) of adults aged 18 to 49 are in cohabiting relationships in these regions. Levels of cohabitation in sub-Saharan Africa vary considerably; they are relatively high in Uganda (25 percent) and low in Ethiopia (4 percent), Kenya (4 percent), and Nigeria (3 percent).
Levels of cohabitation are elevated in much of Western Europe. For example, about one-quarter of Swedish and French adults aged 18 to 49 are living in cohabiting relationships. Cohabitation is most common, however, among South Americans, where consensual unions—long-term cohabiting relationships, often involving childbearing, that may or may not ever lead to legal marriage—have played a longstanding role in society.11 Between 20 percent (Chile) and 35 percent (Colombia) of reproductive-age adults are part of cohabiting unions in South America, with Colombia registering the highest level of cohabitation of any country in our global study.
In general, marriage is more common in Asia and the Middle East than in other regions, whereas alternatives to marriage—including cohabitation—are more common in Europe and Central/South America. North America, Oceania, and sub-Saharan Africa fall in between. Both cultural and economic forces may help to account for these regional differences.
While the prevalence of marriage varies widely, marriage is on the decline in almost all regions of the world, and in some regions cohabitation is becoming more prevalent. The proportion of adults who are married declined by about seven percentage points in South Korea and Taiwan from the mid-2000s to the early 2010s. The percentage of reproductive-age adults who were married in Egypt dropped from 80 percent in 2008 to 64 percent in 2013. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, married adults accounted for 60 percent of the adult population in 2007 versus 51 percent in 2013 while, at the same time, the proportion cohabiting increased from 8 percent to 14 percent. In Argentina, the percentage married dropped from 35 percent in 2006 to 28 percent in 2013. Australia also saw a drop from 50 percent in 2005 to 43 percent in 2012. In Germany, Spain, Sweden, and Russia between the mid-2000s and the early 2010s, the proportion married dropped an average of approximately 10 percentage points. Meanwhile, cohabitation became more prevalent in Spain, doubling in popularity from 7 percent of the adult population in 2007 to 14 percent in 2011. The only country where marriage has become more common in recent years is Turkey, where it rose from 61 percent in 2007 to 67 percent in 2011. It remains to be seen how the changing place of marriage in society and the increasing popularity of cohabitation in many regions affect the well-being of children in countries around the globe.
Family size also affects the well-being of children, in part because children in large families tend to receive fewer financial and practical investments than do children in small families.12 On the other hand, some research suggests that children who grow up without siblings lose out on important social experiences and face an elevated risk of weight issues.13,14 How, then, is region linked to family size around the globe?
Table 1 presents each nation's total fertility rate (TFR) in 2013 (the average number of children each woman of childbearing age is expected to have over the course of her lifetime) as a proxy for family size. The data, which come from the United Nations Population Division, indicate that large families predominate in sub-Saharan Africa, where the total fertility rate ranges from 2.4 children per woman in South Africa to 6.0 per woman in Nigeria. Amid a falling global TFR, in recent years Ethiopia and Nigeria have both experienced growth in their fertility rates (TFRs increasing by half a child). Fertility also remains comparatively high in the Middle East, ranging from a TFR of 2.0 in Qatar and Turkey to one of 3.2 in Jordan.
Sources: www.worldfamilymap.org/e-ppendix/table1
In the Americas and Oceania, fertility rates are now close to or slightly below the replacement level of 2.1. This means that women in most countries in these regions are having enough children for the population to replace itself, rather than expand or shrink, from one generation to the next. For instance, the TFR is 1.9 in Australia, 1.8 in Chile, 2.2 in Mexico, and 2.0 in the United States. It is worth noting that fertility has fallen markedly in South America in the last four decades, which is one reason that fertility rates there (which range from a TFR of 1.8 in Brazil, Chile, and Costa Rica to 3.2 in Bolivia) come close to paralleling those in North America and Oceania.15
Fertility rates in Europe have rebounded somewhat from their lows in the early 2000s, but remain below replacement level in all of the countries we investigated; their TFRs are between 1.4 and 2.0.16 Eastern Europe exhibits particularly low fertility, with TFRs of 1.4 and 1.5.
Finally, fertility rates in Asia vary substantially, to the point where the TFR ranges from 1.1 (Taiwan) to 3.0 (Philippines), and have fallen dramatically in recent years, especially in East Asia.17 Indeed, no East Asian country has a fertility rate that exceeds 1.7. This below-replacement fertility has caused concerns and drawn international media attention. The long-term consequences of such low fertility—both for the children themselves and for the societies they live in—are uncertain.
Tracking nonmarital childbearing is important because, in many societies, children whose parents are not married are more likely to experience instability in their parents' union and are less likely to have positive outcomes in many areas of life, from social behavior to academic performance.18
Nonmarital childbearing refers to the percentage of babies that are born to unmarried women, whether or not the women are in a nonmarital relationship. Data for this indicator are drawn from both surveys and official registration data. Because these two types of sources are very different, it is vital to use caution when comparing rates for this indicator. For more information on sources, see the e-appendix.
As Figure 5 indicates, Central/South America is home to the world's most elevated rates of nonmarital childbearing, followed by Northern and Western Europe. In South America, well over half of children are born to unmarried mothers, with Colombia registering the highest levels (84 percent).19 In much of Europe, between one-third and half of children are born outside of marriage, and in France and Sweden, more than 50 percent of children are. In many European countries, the average age at first marriage now exceeds the average age at first childbirth.20
Sources: www.worldfamilymap.org/2015/e-ppendix/figure5
Nonmarital childbearing is also common in Oceania and North America. In these regions, about four in 10 children are born outside of marriage, with rates ranging from 33 percent (Australia and Canada) to 55 percent (Mexico), with the U.S. at 41 percent. By contrast, rates of nonmarital childbearing are wide-ranging in sub-Saharan Africa, from a low of 7 percent in Nigeria to a high of 63 percent in South Africa. Finally, nonmarital childbearing is comparatively rare throughout much of Asia and the Middle East. With the exception of the Philippines, where 43 percent of children are born to unmarried parents, the nonmarital childbearing rate is 5 percent or lower in these two regions. Not surprisingly, these patterns track closely with the marriage trends identified in Figure 4; that is, where marriage is more prevalent, the proportion of children born outside of marriage is smaller.

Former Crown Prince Paras Shah been arrested by Thai Police in Thailand.
Paras who is known for his outrageous life style was arrested with 12.6 grams of marijuana from Davis Hotel, Sukhumvit on July 10. He was presented before a court today.
The Nepali Embassy at Bangkok was informed about his arrest yesterday evening. Thai police authorities informed Embassy that Shah was in their judicial custody but did not reveal about where the ex-Nepal crown price has been detained.
This is not the first time he is been arrested by Thai Police. In October 2012, Shah, 42 was arrested in Phuket on charged with cannabis possession on the Thai resort Island. Afterward in December, he was detained again for vandalising luxury property at an apartment in Bangkok. He was released only after paying 120, 000 baht ($3,730) to the building owner.
Shah who is always in controversy was revived from a coma after suffering a massive cardiac arrest in February 2013, due to overdose of drug.
He was admitted at the Samitive Hospital and was discharged after 38 days later he was admitted to Chiang Mai-based Chance Rehabilitation Centre.
Presently, Paras Shah has been residing in Chiang Mai, in the northern Thailand.

Posted: 28 December 2014 09:46 PM
My son is 5'6" and about 165 lbs. he currently rides a beginner board which is a free ride board. He wants a board that is all mountain but can also freestyle. His current board is too long and too stiff for what he wants. The current board hits approx 3/4" above the tip of his nose and is measured at 156plus. He wears a size 9.5 boot.
We chose the NS Proto HD or HDX as the board that will perform well in what he wants to do.
My question is what size?? He wants to do a 152. The size charts put him over for the HD but under the HDX when looking at the 152. The 152 and 154 list boot size 5-7 on HD until you get to the 156. The 156 is too long and he does not want it.
So it would appear that we should get the HDX in 152 but numerous reviews I read all say the HDX is for size 11 or bigger, show people 5'10" or better riding 154s, even quite a few say go small do to expanded side cuts.
So, I am turning to those that ride and not just make charts for the stores for imput.
Do I buy the 152 in HD or HDX?? He wants to ride the groomers with his mother and I and since it is not difficult for him, play with some small jumps, presses, etc. Then start into the parks for some fun.
Thanks in advance for the help!!

South Carolina residents may be interested in a new study by Transunion that found American consumers tend to pay their car notes before credit card debt and mortgages. While consumers place their credit bills as a top priority, transportation tends to trump everything else. Although auto loans normally have significantly lower interest rates than credit bills, credit card debt loses to the importance of having an automobile to ensure Americans can get to and from work.
The researchers who conducted the study believe that while Americans can cope with a late mortgage payment, paying the auto loan late can place them into an area of greater immediate financial concern.
This study came as a surprise to researchers who apparently believed that mortgages and credit debt would receive preference over auto loans. But according to the study, this is definitely not the case. Unemployment and plunging real estate values are likely attributable to this change in pattern, and researchers have a couple of ideas as to why consumers would choose to pay their auto debts over others.
Not having transportation can mean not having a job. If money is not made, nothing can be paid so ensuring auto loans are paid on time every time means that money will likely continue coming in from employment to pay for everything else. Consumers tend to believe that a repossession of a car is much worse than losing a credit card. Auto loans are not revolving loans and the consequences of not paying are more severe than a late credit card payment. Americans also tend to believe that their cars currently hold more equity than their homes in this still-stagnant economy and want to ensure the equity remains by making on-time payments.
While this change in habits is interesting, it makes sense to those who see employment as the end-all for paying other bills. Due to a poor economy, Americans are seeing more value in their vehicles in anything else, which causes them to place their auto loans on a pedestal and ensure those loans are always paid first. But even with that emphasis, some consumers have still watched helplessly as their debt has spiraled through the roof, and for some of those individuals, bankruptcy protection may offer immediate relief on the road to a return to financial stability.

In 2013, we were commissioned by Anthony Carrino (HGTV's Kitchen Cousins), Dale Talde (Top Chef) and David Massoni (Talde, Thistle Hill Tavern and Pork Slope) to craft a visual experience and brand for their new project in Jersey City: Carrino Provisions. The job would take over 16 months to complete. The scope: branding, interior design, packaging design and a wide variety of signage.
The SIGNAGE
When the project began, the space was completely raw—broken bricks and no electricity. There were no fancy renderings, no sketches—just room for imagination. The space was set to have five stations: coffee, antipasti, pasta, butcher and pastries. Anthony had mentioned early on that he loved the vibe of walking through marketplaces in Italy where each proprietor had their own style, yet everything appeared visually cohesive. We decided that hand painting on brick would be the most authentic approach. Over the course of six months, we did just that. We designed and painted signage on over 500 square feet of brick wall, bringing life to the space and helping customers navigate the market. See sliding gallery at top of page.
When the painting was done we focused on the rest. The massive window space facing the street needed to be inviting for passerbys. We custom designed an array of gold leaf vinyl signage advertising the variety of foods inside through clever phrasing and iconography. Inside, we designed a custom neon sign read that directed customers to the Osteria (restaurant) in the back of the space.
Along with selling dozens of fancy hard-to-find italian products, Carrino Provisions sought to market their own proprietary goods.
Since the plan was to have over 20 Carrino products within a few years, we needed a streamlined branding approach—simple and clean, yet uniquely Italian. Taking inspiration from the beautiful colors and typefaces used on vintage Italian bicycles and motorcycles, we created a colorful spectrum of products that left infinite room for growth in the future.
Along with selling dozens of fancy hard-to-find italian products, Carrino Provisions sought to market their own proprietary goods.
Aside from the products, we produced an array of other marketing materials, from stickers to menus.
