Our resident book and novel expert, Ashleigh Ray, received an advance copy of Jan Moran's latest book, Scent of Triumph, which was released on March 31. After reading the book from cover to cover, find out the scoop on whether Ashleigh thinks this book from Moran's collection is worth the read.
Overall Assessment: Overall, Scent of Triumph is an enjoyable book despite a few style preferences and choices made purposefully by the author. Moran created a story that captivates the reader. However underneath a more skeptical eye, the novel's flaws will appear. 3 out of 5 stars to anyone who enjoys dramatic romance and historical fiction.
The plot of Scent of Triumph is engaging within the first few pages, drawing the reader in with the hint of romance in the midst of war. The events of the story take place during World War II after the Nazis invaded Poland -- strategically placing this novel under the label of historical fiction. While not usually the one to read historical fiction -- as it usually buries the reader beneath facts and dates that they could care less about, this story made us reconsider our stance against the genre. Moran made us interested in the lives of her characters. She had us rooting for their safety and for their happiness. Within the first few pages, we were ready to commit ourselves to the romance and drama of Danielle Bretancourt's life.
Despite much praise, beware as the style of this book may catch you off guard.
The first line alone gave such an air of pretension that we had to put it down -- only to pick it back up to re-engage in more pretentious tones given off by the narrator. For the reader, this pretension may be derived from the overly dramatized tone and longer-than-necessary descriptions. This tone evens out as the story goes on, but the author still tends to over-describe the settings in her stories. Sometimes brevity is best. Some readers appreciate a nice balance between what the writer tells them and what they are allowed to imagine for themselves. Unfortunately, Moran dissolves the fun, leaving little to the imagination. However, we understand that this is only a matter of personal taste.
Another slight but looming issue comes from the main character. Despite Danielle's virtues and talents, she seemed almost too perfect. She is the ideal woman living a charmed life. This is reinforced by the fact that she never really has to deal with the difficult situations in her life; instead, something convenient occurs to draw her away from the difficulty. This is a common theme with writers.
Whenever the author finds his or herself in a difficult plot line, he/she writes themselves out of it, rather than riding out the tension and seeing what comes of it. I think that Danielle would have been a much stronger character had she been given the chance to grow in these situations.
Other than these minor flaws, this book comes just in time for the summer -- heading the warmer weather with an enjoyable romance laced with historical fiction. We rate this novel 3 out of 5.

Sunday at the Beach
I put up a couple of new pictures in the photo album. Even though they aren't my official "after" photos for my Transformation challenge, they are a pretty good indication of what has transpired over the last several months.
I'll be 40 in 7 weeks. Time to sprint to that mile-post and sail into October and the USMC booth at the NC State Fair. I did 11 pullups on Friday. 15-20 should be within reach by the time October rolls around. After that? Who knows! But I'll be doing my best to inspire others to reach beyond themselves for good health.
Be well!

On our trip to Rome we got to visit the Colosseum. I learned about Gladiators and how they fought in the Colosseum. I thought it was cool to see the Colosseum where there were real Gladiator fights. In this report I will talk about the Colosseum, Gladiators, and my experience at the Colosseum.
The Colosseum
The Colosseum is also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre. It is built with stone, brick and concrete. It took 40,000 slaves ten years to build. When it was first opened the arena was flooded with water so you could have ship battles. The floor of the arena was made of wood then covered with sand to soak up the blood from the gladiators and animals. Arena in Latin means sand. Under the wooden floor there were two levels of small rooms to keep the beasts and gladiators. There were trap doors leading from under the Colosseum to the arena. A huge cloth called a Velarium was placed on top of the Colosseum to protect the crowd from the sun and rain. The cloth was like a ship's sail and it took 1,000 sailors to work it using ropes and pulleys. A long time ago, the Colosseum's arches were decorated with statues. Did you know that poor people sat at the very top of the arena and the rich and important people sat the closest to the arena? Men and women also sat apart from each other.
There were three types of Colosseum games: Gladiator versus Gladiator, Gladiator versus Animal, and Animal versus Animal. Tigers, elephants, lions, giraffes, monkeys, zebras and oxen were some of the animals used to entertain the crowd. The Emperor used the Colosseum games to gain favour from the Roman people.
Gladiators were either prisoners of war or criminals. They were forced to fight for their lives for the pleasure of the crowd. New Gladiators were taken to a training school called a ludus to learn how to fight. Weapons for gladiators were spears, swords, maces, daggers, tridents, shields, nets, hammers, and whips. Some gladiators wore helmets, greaves (leg protectors), steel armour on their chest and legs.
There were many different types of Gladiators. The Retiarius was a net fighter and carried a trident and a net, but wore very little protection. The Secutor was the pursuer. He wore a big helmet, greaves, and armor on his sword arm. The Velitis was a skirmisher. He wore no armor and fought with a spear. The Murmillo was one of the most popular gladiators who wore a fish shaped helmet and had strong bulging muscles. The Equites were the horseback riders who fought their own kind. The Thracian used a curved sword and a square shield. The Hoplomachi was a heavily armoured Gladiator and comes in last into the arena. At one point in time, there were also women and dwarf Gladiators.
If a Gladiator was knocked down to the ground and wounded, the crowd would help the Emperor decide if he would live or die. Thumbs up meant the Gladiator was allowed to live and thumbs down meant death.
My Experience at the Colosseum
My family and I took a walking tour around the Colosseum. I got to see under the arena where they stored the Gladiators and beasts because the wooden floor wasn't there anymore. There was also a huge cross which marked where the Emperor used to sit. I really liked visiting the Colosseum because I got to see where the Gladiators used to fight thousands of years ago. I think that Gladiators were interesting because they were skilled fighters who fought to the death. Now the Colosseum is a huge ruin. I wonder what it would have been like thousands of years ago.
In this report I talked about the Colosseum, Gladiators, and my experience visiting the Colosseum. I enjoyed learning a lot about the Colosseum and Gladiators.

Last year I celebrated Mother's Day from San Diego. It was a Mother's Day with a new temple
and our family on Skype from 5 different places.
My, how far we've come. 1500 miles. 365 days. A new place and a new life.
This morning I woke to the lovely smell of breakfast burritos. Not in bed, because I'm not too fond of eating in bed. We went to church where Jared gave his first talk in sacrament meeting and did an excellent job. In relief society I sat by friends, ate lovely treats, and listened to a great lesson. After church we had lunch and I worked on a slideshow while we waited until it was time to skype with Jason.
Our call with Jason was followed by a good nap and then a skype call with my girlfriends. Russ made a lovely dinner and then he and the kids cleaned the kitchen. Really cleaned it. Then Russ and I finished the day watching the Survivor finale.
What a happy Mother's Day!

Assumptions ah that word, that action, the results. Let us speak about assumptions and consider what they are and why people do this. While I sit in my chair and see what people say and how they react to it and I feel sadness. I cannot understand how they can't see the harm they are inflicting on others. They assume and there are many things associated with that word.
Now the basic definition says that to assume means that you are uncertain, that you take for granted that it is true. By this very definition it means that you are not coming from a place of facts. So when you assume something about someone or something you are not in a place of truth. So by your very actions your cause people to assume that what you say is true.
What I ask is that people come from a place of truth. To look beyond what their friends and family tell them and to find out for themselves. This is the only way to live your life. You take the time to research things no matter who you hear it from. Because through your belief you may be causing someone pain. You may be causing someone to question themselves or their actions. I do not enjoy hearing assumptions from people. Many times what I hear is someone who is trying to bluff their way through things and this helps nobody.
I believe that we are here to help other people. That to assume that because someone is say interested in violent video games that they are violent in real life. That is an assumption. If someone is from the Middle East they are not automatically a threat or a danger to anyone. This is what I see the media broadcasting lately. Assumptions without proof. They have been doing it for years now and people just eat it up as if it were the finest buffet. Completely unaware of the harm things like this cause over time.
Take time to get to know people that look different than you. Extend a friendship to someone you think you may know fits into a certain category and find out for yourself. Do not risk the welfare and contentment that can come from the truth. There are so many resources out there. They are usually freely available and all you have to do is motivate yourself to go look.
Realize that you may be sheltered and protected in your world. Question all things. Simply because someone put on a suit and speaks with authority does not mean that they are right. Look to whom they speak for. Find out where the money is invested. Do not sit there passively certain that the world is a certain way. It is not the way you imagine. This world is filled to the brim with possibilities, challenges, friends, experiences and an amazing future.
We are a beautiful planet. We need to go find out the truth and stop pretending that everything is ok. It will be, it can be. But you must start searching for truth and start having a voice for people to hear. If not now then when.
Disclaimer: What I write is how I feel about things. I am not the expert on anything. Read and think for yourself. Know what you feel is correct and if you doubt me feel free to go find out for yourself.

I've heard already that some people think that the green bars are 3mg, however this is not true. I've heard time released xanax is 3mg also, but I'm not even sure there is such a thing as a time released form of this drug. Can someone please clarify this for me and preferrably someone who knows from a reliable source, simply because there seems to be much confusion on this.
Does Xanax or Alprazolam come in a 3 mg form?

Yes there is a three 3mg Xanax - Zan .. It is time released .. Call the pharmacy tell them you are on them and that your doctor talked about it and want to know more about it and they will let you know. Any local pharmacy will tell you. I just called myself and talked to a pharmacy tech. :) Although I like mine to hit me when I take it because if I am taking it then its because I need it right there and then. 2mg is the best way to go and the green three mg is more money at pharmacy.
Look up onax bars they are 3mgs they are stronger than the Xanax bars from USA onax there made with 3mg's of alprazolam they are made in India so to answer your question yes there are stronger forms of xanax out there that are much better than the US version they are called Onax it's the samething there Just stronger than the average xanax bar

Healthy Cooking Methods
How healthy are the various cooking methods? The answer depends on what you cook and how you cook it. If your idea of a healthy main course is blackened fish, crispy fried chicken, or caramelized ribs, you've probably never heard of advanced Glycated End Products (also known as advanced glycated end products).
Advanced glycated end products, which were discovered by Louis Maillard in 1912, are a class of chemical byproducts that result from the combination of protein and sugar (usually glucose) when food is cooked by excessive heat.1
Advanced glycated end products can also be formed by the body when too much refined sugar is eaten and elevated blood sugar levels are maintained for too long a time. And food manufacturers intentionally increase the number of advanced glycated end products in food, either by adding sugar or by browning food elements.
Advanced glycated end products aren't to be confused with glycoproteins, even though they share the same building blocks. A glycoprotein forms when glucose and proteins bind using the normal digestive enzymes with which we all come equipped. This process presupposes gently cooked food and moderate sugar intake from whole fruits and vegetables and very little or no refined sugar. Glycoproteins are part of how the body feeds itself. Advanced glycated end products are something else entirely.
Humans evolved eating raw food and food cooked slowly over a small open flame. Today we cook food quickly and at high heat by flash heating, microwaving, deep-frying, and barbecuing. All of these methods form advanced glycated end products, which are difficult to metabolize and nearly indestructible.
Our immune system reacts to advanced glycated end products as foreign bodies. When our diet is inundated with advanced glycated end products, the immune system is overworked and becomes exhausted, which may lead to allergies or disease. advanced glycated end products spur the release of cytokines, which are part of the inflammatory process. Cytokines collect in the joints of people with arthritis. Another interesting fact about advanced glycated end products and inflammation is that free radical production is nearly five times greater with glycated protein compared to regular protein.4
Not all cooking methods are created equal. Studies have shown that boiling, steaming, or any method involving water tends to greatly limit the number of advanced glycated end products that form. Turning down the heat and extending the cooking time can also create fewer advanced glycated end products than other methods.
There are two different temperature ranges to be aware of: the heat labile point around 245° F and the much lower advanced glycated end products threshold between 120° F and 180° F. The heat labile point applies to fats and proteins that change chemically without the presence of sugar and has similar health risk as the advanced glycated end products discussed here.
How to Avoid Advanced Glycated End Products
- Turn down the heat and extend the cooking time
- Stop eating sugar (The average American eats 140 pounds of sugar per year.3)
- Cook with water (boil, steam and poach)
- Avoid processed foods which are likely to have sugar or browned food elements
- Drink green tea (Recent studies have shown that green tea help remove advanced glycated end products from your body.4)
The following is a small sample of diseases and conditions that can be helped by limiting advanced glycated end products either by changing how we cook or cutting out the sugar:
- Inflammation
- Aging
- Diabetes
- Alzheimer's disease
- Macular Degeneration
- Hypertension
- Arthritis
- Kidney Disease
This list is not inclusive, but is just enough for all of us to be mindful that how we cook our food is at least as important as what foods we eat.
Eating raw can help a person be healthier, but it can be a hard choice. In some cases, cooking is necessary for economic reasons like extending the shelf life of food. For example, cooking turns stale bread into toast, which tastes the same regardless of how fresh the bread was. Striking the balance between killing off pathogens in poorly stored raw food and overcooking has always been delicate. And for many people the practice of cooking is so ingrained in their culture that eating raw food is unthinkable. So if you must cook, cook gently.

As we transition from emergency and recovery mode – it makes sense to start the process of reviewing the state of our storm and sanitary system. We got the ball rolling at City Council on Monday with a few questions and followed this up by additional questions submitted to the City Engineer – SEE BELOW. I invite you to share with me questions and concerns you would like raised at City Council and with our City Engineer regarding last week's rainfall and flood.
(1) What is the status of Stormwater and Sanitary Master Plan – timeline for completion?
(b) What resources are necessary to expedite/prioritize the completion of the Plan?
(2) Livelink #15549 (2012) report calls for a comprehensive Stormwater Management Strategy –
Where are we on that?
(3) After the last major flood in 2011 – the Town of Tecumseh hired an independent engineering consulting firm – Dillon Consulting – to prepare a Sanitary Sewage Collection System Improvements Class Environmental Assessment. It has 167 pages that reviews capacity, performance and provides recommendations.
a. Has the City of Windsor conducted a Sanitary Sewage Collection Improvement EA?
b. What resources would be necessary to proceed with a similar EA in East Windsor?
(4) City has 43 pumping stations – 8 sanitary; 29 storm; 6 combined. Can you confirm that all 43 pumping stations working on September 28, 29 & 30?
(5) The City constructed a $60 million downtown Retention Treatment Basin (RTB) in 2012.
a. Is East Windsor connected to the Retention Treatment Basin?
b. Would a retention basin on the East End help in this situation?
c. Would it relieve pressure on Little River Pollution Control Plant?
(6) What percentage of our 1700km of sewers have been analyzed using CCTV – for anomalies such as cross-connections and deficiencies leading to infiltration? In your Professional Opinion – can more be done? What resources are necessary to expedite CCTV in East Windsor?
(7) Little River Pollution Control Plant (LRPCP) – treats sanitary from Windsor (east of Pilette) through East Windsor to Town of Tecumseh – co-called Zones 2, 4,5,6,8,11,12 correct?
a. Could we collaborate with the Town of Tecumseh on a joint Master Plan and/or join EA for sanitary improvements – since our systems are so linked together?
b. Can LRPCP handle flows from Tecumseh and Windsor as is?
(8) Confirm that Emergency Bypass Gate at Little River Pollution Control Plant allows water to bypass Secondary Treatment and be discharged directly to Detroit River in times of heavy flow.
a. When is it opened?
b. What happens?
c. Key Question – what time was bypass activated on Thursday/Friday?
(9) In 2010 – the Little River Pollution Control Plant bypassed 514 million litres of water because LRPCP was at capacity. In 2011 – LRPCP bypassed 2.1 billion litres of water – representing a 311 per cent increase. Why is that?
a. Does LRPCP have a capacity problem? Will it have a capacity issue with future development – if so, when?
b. LRPCP has primary treatment capacity of about 27,000 cubic metres/day whereas Lou Romano Water Reclamation Plant has 273,000 cubic meters/day. 10 times more. Is that an issue? Should LRPCP capacity be increased to accommodate new development?
(10) How many employees do we have conducting sewer maintenance on our 900km of sanitary sewers? What do they do? How much do we spend? How long does it take for one clean cycle? Is that standard across cities?
a. In June 2010 – there was flooding in Ward 8 – and part of it was attributed to a giant grease ball that caused a blockage. Can we rule out blockages as contributing factor in Ward 7 floods?
(11) Backwater valves have been mandated on all new builds since 2012 – correct?
a. I talked to residents who had it installed – and yet still got flooded. Can you explain?
b. How many backflow valves have been installed – and in your professional opinion can we do better to get more uptake on this program? What is required to expedite backflow valve installation across East Windsor?
(12) In 2012 – a report recommended that the City purchase 20 permanent flow monitors and hire a consultant so that the City can collect data on sewer flows and create computerized models that show inefficiency and infiltration.
a. Where are we on this? What is the data showing us?
(13) Where are we on updating Intensity Duration Frequency (IDF) curves for the City of Windsor?
(14) About $500 million is required to separate sewer and sanitary. Currently spending $10 million per year? How long would it take to accomplish this? In your Professional Opinion – is this sufficient?
(15) Where are we on the downspout disconnection program?
a. 2012 report states: "Had downspouts been disconnected during the previous (2011) major flood events, then most of the basements flooded would not have. A 10% reduction in water volume heading to the sanitary sewer would greatly reduce instances of basement flooding".
In your professional opinion – do we need more resources to expedite downspout disconnection?
b. How much are we spending per year on downspout disconnection?
c. How much does it cost to treat stormwater every year
(16) The retention pond at Blue Heron Lake & Troupe Crescent both crested and/or overflowed. As City Engineer you stated that the retention ponds did what they were designed to do. If capacity is not an issue at these individual retention ponds – is it possible additional retention capacity in Ward 7 is necessary or would have been beneficial?
(b) Had intense rains continued onto Friday/Saturday as forecast – with Blue Heron and Troupe Crescent retention ponds at capacity – where would the water go? What would be the outcome for residential basements without additional retention capacity?

Feedback from recent events include:
"Thank you for such an inspirational inset. Staff thoroughly enjoyed this INSET and have had an inspiring start to term. Funnily enough, lots of circles appeared at the start of lessons, but with surprising twists – in a Geog lesson a teacher used the four circles to depict the learning from previous lessons – very effective! Also, other fun and creative starters are in force to create the right learning state. "
"Thank you for being an inspiration!"
"I caught you at your Masterclass at last week's EduLEAD and it was truly an amazing experience"
"Thank you so much for your inspiring congress speeches at the World EduLead Conference in Sydney. I have to confess that your second speech - What have the Venezuelans ever done for us?made me quite teary - especially the end clip - isn't that what a leader ultimately is? Starting something - leading by example and then having others come on board. "
"I just wanted to put in writing that this morning's session with Ian Gilbert was superb. He was an excellent speaker, who really engaged with parents, and I have no doubt that a lot of reflection will be going on as a result"
"A truly inspirational speaker, who not only had interesting and useful things to share, but was also very witty and entertaining. I didn't want the session to end"
Being a governor is an incredibly important task these days so we are delighted when we are asked to support them in their work in all sorts of schools around the country. Apart from ensuring the event is an entertaining and enjoyable one for all, especialy as it is so often on a rainy Saturday, we make sure our input is informative, relevant, up to date and guarantees all governors go back into their schools knowing what to look for, what to do and the rights sorts of questions to ask.

There is an eternal struggle in healthcare, that of the surgeon vs. the medicine man.
This is not obvious from outside the professions, but the evidence is all around us. The surgeon is a much more glamorous specialty; life and death sometimes literally rest in a surgeon's hands. The surgeon is richly rewarded for sometimes heroic efforts, and is among the highest paid and most respected of any specialist.
The medicine man (internist) spends time in the much less dramatic pursuit of disease prevention and cure through medications. This is a quiet and thoughtful profession, but much like the tortoise and hare, the medicine man is winning.
This struggle was highlighted last week by studies showing that antibiotic treatment is as safe and effective as surgery for acute appendicitis (and a whole lot less miserable for the patient).
That is the exact opposite to the training surgeons received for the last 50 years. We believed that antibiotics never cured an appendicitis, it just made it harder to diagnose, thus delaying surgical treatment until after it burst (peritonitis).
So we will see a lot less appendectomies in the future. Score: Medicine 1,
Surgery 0.
Thinking about life and death surgery, the cardiovascular (heart) surgeon has no equal.
But the triple bypass is steadily losing ground to prevention and alternative treatments. Medications like statins to reduce cholesterol and blood pressure medications are keeping the vast number of patients from even getting coronary artery disease. Even if you get coronary artery disease, the chances are that your treatment will be an angioplasty/stent rather that having your "chest cracked."
There is a reason they call it chest cracking! That's 2/0, in the Medicine Man's favor – if you are keeping score.
Ulcer surgery used to be one of the most commonly performed operations. Then came the invention of Tagamet, a class of acid reducers light years ahead of antacids (acid neutralizers). Then came the proton pump inhibitors (Prilosec), which was the knockout blow that virtually eliminated ulcer surgery.
Cancer has always been first and foremost a surgical disease. What is more appealing than cutting the cancer out? These days, the answer is a lot of things. Prostate cancer was always treated with prostate removal, and a frequent complication was impotence.
Now oral medications like antiandrogens, or alternative treatments like radiation, have dramatically decreased the number of prostates we remove, and the number of people needing Viagra is also reduced.
Breast cancer was first treated with the big operation: radical mastectomy. This evolved into simple mastectomy, now lumpectomy, or even just needle biopsy. Medical treatment for breast cancer does a better and less traumatic job of curing many of these unfortunate problems for women.
In fact, just about pick your cancer, and the treatment has dramatically moved from surgical to medical in the last 30 years.
But never fear, orthopedics can be a safe haven for underemployed surgeons. A pill for a broken bone is still a while away. But I wouldn't quite classify it with teleportation; we may come up with something.
Having trained in general surgery, and then practiced occupational medicine for the last 30 years, the sweep of change I've seen has been dramatic. Every year we find new magic pills that retire another scalpel.
Call me a wimp, but I'll take my Lipitor and Tenormin; and eat walnuts if I want to hear a cracking sound.
Take care.
Dr. B.

Discussion in 'Mac Apps and Mac App Store' started by bobber205, Feb 12, 2007.
I heard there might be problems about a AGP graphics card. wtf?
How do I get around this?
i have a stacked mackbook pro and use fcp with hi def and it worked good (bit slower than my mac pro) except i think my fans got a bit lazzy and i melted something in my lap top.
luckily it is under a warenty that covers any thing.
so i would recomend a fan controling app like smcFanControl found there -> http://22.214.171.124/~eidac/software/page5/page5.html and a lot of ram + rom (hd take space like mad)
I meant on a macbook, not pro. Sorry if I wasn't clear.
Yes, it is but I couldn't get it to work with 512mb of RAM jumped to 1gb and all was good. Of course I dont have it anymore dont remember what it was like using it for actual editing.
edit: AGP? in a laptop? Huh? Maybe you meant integrated but There isn't such a thing as AGP in laptops. FCP is Processor intensive not GPU. Motion on the other hand.
oh sry i assumed it would be simaler
Apparently, MacBooks can run Final Cut Pro HD; at least according to this article: http://creativemac.digitalmedianet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=43717

WASHINGTON – Four U.S. military members are part of a State Department team that is restoring and securing the U.S. Embassy in the Libyan capital, in part out of concern that it may have been booby-trapped during the fighting between rebel and pro-government forces, officials said Monday.
The arrival of the U.S. team in Tripoli on Saturday marks only the second time since the U.S. became involved there that it has acknowledged having any military personnel on the ground. The first time was in March when Marines rescued an Air Force pilot who had ejected over eastern Libya.
Navy Capt. John Kirby, a spokesman for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said the four military members of the State Department group include two who specialize in disposing of explosives. He says the four are not there in any offensive or defensive military capacity, but only to help the State Department.
Kirby described the embassy as "pretty well trashed."
In explaining the rationale for putting military personnel on the State Department team, department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland cited the explosives threat.
"Folks had to go in and check and make sure that there weren't any booby traps in our old building," she told reporters.
President Barack Obama has said since the start of U.S. involvement in Libya that he would not commit ground forces. U.S. pilots have flown thousands of missions over Libya since March, but the only known troop presence on the ground was the brief rescue mission by Marines. Some have suggested a need to get more directly involved on the ground in order to secure anti-aircraft weapons and chemical weapons stockpiles.
"When the president made his commitment, 'no boots on the ground,' that obviously had to do with entering into the fray between the Gadhafi forces and the Libyan freedom fighters," Nuland said. "And that's not what these guys are engaged in," referring to the four troops now in Tripoli
Kirby said the military personnel, in addition to dealing with the explosive threat, are helping the State Department determine what it will take to ensure security at the facility, which was significantly vandalized during the conflict. "They are assisting in an assessment of the facility," Kirby said. "They are equipped and prepared to provide for their own defense. This is not an offensive or even a defensive mission."
Nuland said the head of the State Department team, Joan Polaschik, met with the National Transitional Council's national security adviser and deputy foreign minister to discuss security requirements of the U.S. diplomatic mission as well as political developments. She said the U.S. team found that water, electricity and other basic services are returning to normal in Tripoli.
"But we still have quite a bit of work to do to security appropriate facilities for our folks," she said.
The State Department also issued a statement Monday expressing concerns about black African migrants and refugees in Libya being arbitrarily detained and abused because of their perceived links to the Gadhafi regime.
"Nobody should be detained or harassed due to the color of their skin or their nationality, and measures must be taken to protect individuals from acts of violence," the statement said.
The U.S. is offering to help foreigners leave Libya for their own safety.
Associated Press writer Bradley Klapper contributed to this report.

This is an open letter that I posted on the Facebook page of US Senator Lindsey Graham:
I have been one of your biggest supporters, mostly due to your work towards getting answers and accountability on Benghazi. I had your back when nearly everyone was calling you a RINO and part of the establishment government and Good Ole Boys Club. After last night, and today, I am more than disappointed in you.
You are going to vote this man in to CIA Chief just to show your superiority over another Senator! What, exactly, did Senator Paul do that was so wrong you would risk the American People just to spank him over it? Do you realize how your actions are being perceived by the People? Do you even care?
I have, apparently, done more research on this issue than you have, and Sen. Paul is correct. There is a viable threat to the American People, on US soil, by the government, through the use of drones. If you choose to hide your head in the sand then you are no different than the entitled Progressives that bow down to His Highness.
I am at least big enough to admit when I am wrong. And I admit that now, in reference to my support of you.

SPRINGFIELD -- Bryan Smith won the AMA Pro Flat Track Grand National Championship Springfield Mile at the Illinois State Fairgrounds Sunday.
It's Smith's third straight win in Springfield, and seventh overall.
The race was red flagged early on when Steve Bonsey wrecked on the first lap. When the action resumed Smith took control, leading 16 of the 25 laps.
Jared Mees finished second, Brad Baker was third.

The National Security Agency, or more accurately, the National Spying Agency is an American government agency that collects and harvests data to keep track of, well, everything that it can. Think of it as "Big Brother" in 1984. If the NSA wants to spy on you and collect intelligence on you, it will. WIP.

Are you like the Incredible Hulk?
I saw this Marvel Comics life-size statue of our favorite green superhero, the Incredible Hulk at SM MOA Arena during the Holy Week Retreat 2018 "Deeper".
Anger was expressively shown in his face with a glaring or hooded look straight to your eyes.
Eyebrows lowered and formed a 'V' over the nose. Wrinkles seen on the nose due to flared nostrils. Lips appeared thinner than their normal size. Exposed teeth allows Hulk to threaten his source of anger and often precedes shouting or screaming, an extreme sign of anger.
Anger is a difficult emotion to control. When you are livid with rage, you lose your ability to reason and turn into a monster. You shout, you rage, you smash things and cause destruction.
This statue of Incredible Hulk, the poster boy for anger and destruction, taught me a lot about losing my temper.
The Incredible Hulk debuted in 1962. His alter-ego, Dr. Bruce Banner, was a nuclear physicist working on an atomic bomb, when he accidentally received a huge blast of gamma rays. The rays split Banner into two personalities: one, the mild-mannered scientist he had always been and The Hulk — a walking natural disaster — upon an unprepared world.
Although Banner's brains are to be prized, the real message is: no matter how smart you think you are, control your emotions or face social rejection.
The Hulk was the embodiment of all of Banner's repressed emotions. But it was mainly anger that drove the Hulk. The angrier the Hulk became, the stronger he got. Due to the Hulk's superhuman strength and lack of self-control, he caused untold damage and destruction wherever he went. Naturally, most people feared and viewed the Hulk as a monster.
What then are the dangers of letting anger control you?
Anger Causes You to Say Hurtful Words
The Hulk had very little self-control over the things he said or did. In the midst of anger, it is hard to control the things you say. But when you are angry, you may not even want to do so. Instead, you want to give vent to your anger and frustrations to feel better. Under such conditions, you could say many hurtful things that you would not have said otherwise. Words spoken in anger could cause irreversible harm to a relationship. By then it is too late for regrets. You cannot take back what you say.
Anger Causes Destructive Behavior
You cannot speak of the Hulk without thinking of the destruction he left in his wake. The damage he caused cost billions of dollars. Words alone may not be enough. When you are livid with anger, you could engage in hurtful and destructive behaviour as well. You could do spiteful things just to even the score. While you may not necessarily destroy things like the Hulk, you could hurt people unwittingly on a mental or emotional level.
Anger Makes You a Burden to Others
It comes as no surprise that the Hulk was a danger and a burden to others. Losing your temper is disruptive to the environment around you. It creates a scene that brings everything around you to a halt. When you lose control of your temper, you force people to drop what they are doing to deal with you. Depending on the situation, they may have to accommodate you or put you in your place. This can make you a burden to others and cause them to feel tensed if you lose your temper on a constant basis.
Anger Causes You to Alienate People
One of the challenges that the Hulk faced was his alienation of friends and allies. When you get mad at others, you are bound to do and say things that will have negative consequences. You cannot expect to lose your temper without paying a price for it. After all, you might alienate others in your rage. This could lead to tension in your relationships in the short run. If the damage is deep enough, you could end up turning a friend into an enemy. Repeatedly losing your temper will cause people to dislike you. Although they may not openly admit it, they may be unwilling to lift a finger to help you if you need it.
Anger Turns You Into an Unthinking Monster
When people think of the Hulk, they remember the dumb, angry monster who caused widespread damage and destruction. He was a danger to friend and foe alike because he could not control his temper. This is what anger does when it consumes you. Your rage, which may prove too much for you to handle, clouds your reason and judgment. In the throes of your anger, you could across as an unthinking brute to those around you.
Take Action
As long as you live in this world, you are bound to get angry at one point or another. Anything can set you off. Even so, it is important not to let your anger get the better of you. Cutting loose and lashing out when you are angry may help you to relieve your rage and make you feel good. But there is a price to pay. The things you say and do in your anger may have grave consequences for you. You should try to avoid losing your temper and turning into a monster.

8 things you absolutely MUST pack for university
- Door wedge- keeping your door propped open on Fresher's Week will make it easy for people to drop in and introduce themselves.
- Sweets - Never underestimate the power of sweets when making new friends.
- A few different playlists - Create a party playlist to gear you up for a night out in our award winning bar, and work out songs to get you into beast mode for the onsite gym.
- A deck of cards - There's no limit to the games you can play and it's a perfect ice breaker.
- Dressing up clothes - With all the sports clubs and societies, you'll definitely be celebrating. Or commiserating. Either way you'll be in a ridiculous outfit.
- Swimming stuff - Bognor Regis campus is only half a mile from the beach! You probably don't want to join the locals for the Christmas Day 'dip' though…
- Bedding - After all the excitement of making more friends than you can remember the name of and running around like a lunatic, you'll want somewhere nice to crash out and recharge.
- Toastie maker - Again, the power of food. Also you'll be surprised by the number of people who managed to pack enough bunting and fairy lights to decorate the whole University but forgot to bring any cutlery.

Who Are The Forerunners?
If you're familiar with the Halo universe then you've almost certainly heard of The Forerunners, they play a consistent background role in all the games and make an amazing introduction in 343 Industries Halo 4. But who are these long dormant beings and what role do they play in the Halo franchise?
As it so happens, quite a big one. The namesake of the franchise itself is based on a Forerunner installation known as the Halo Rings which were used as weapons to wipe out planets that had become overrun with The Flood. The Forerunners are said to be an ancient race with highly advanced technology with control over thousands of star systems. They appear to only have met true resistance from The Flood hence the construction of the Halo rings and their apparent untimely demise as the dominant civilization. Our first meeting with the Forerunners as players takes place in Halo: Combat Evolved where we meet '343 Guilty Sparks' the Halo Monitor for the first time who plays a key role in the game but only lightly makes references to the Forerunner lore.
Halo 3 however expands on the Forerunner lore making it clear that there are multiple Halo Installations each cared for by their own Monitors and a hub Instillation know as The Ark. Halo 3 also goes about depicting the power and advanced technology of this 100,000 year old race when Master Chief is pitted against Sparks after who subsequently requires three direct hits from a Spartan laser, Scorpion tanks take two hits… When Sparks is defeated he uses his last sane sentence to call Chief a Forerunner creating a heap of rumors including the speculation that Chief could well be a direct descendant of the Forerunners.
Halo 3 also introduces The Sentinels who are effectively the security for Forerunner installations and bug the crap out of the player for a fair few levels but redeem themselves by dropping the Sentinel Beam when destroyed. The Sentinel Beam was the first and only Forerunner weapon that was playable by the gamer however in In Halo 4 all that changes. The Forerunners have a more apparent role in the most recent installment of Halo, most notably in the form of Prometheans, a warrior class Forerunner. Images of these creatures have been released (Pictured below) and look like the most innovative and interesting Halo creature since the Elites. The arrival of the Prometheans has brought at least six extravagant and Forerunner designed weapons. Some of these include the aptly names 'Binary Rifle' which apparently dissolves enemies on impact and the Incineration Cannon that does what it says on the tin and seems to be a derivative of the Fuel Rod.
Even with the confirmation of the Prometheans the full extent of what is uncovered regarding the Forerunners is largely undisclosed though, if the slogan 'An Ancient Evil Awakes' is anything to go by then it's sure to be big. Also with the North American release of Halo 4 already behind us the next chapter in who and what the Forerunners are is likely to unfold.

The Age of Wonder: How the Romantic Generation Discovered the Beauty and Terror of Science
Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, 14 jul. 2009 - 576 páginas
The Age of Wonder is a colorful and utterly absorbing history of the men and women whose discoveries and inventions at the end of the eighteenth century gave birth to the Romantic Age of Science.
When young Joseph Banks stepped onto a Tahitian beach in 1769, he hoped to discover Paradise. Inspired by the scientific ferment sweeping through Britain, the botanist had sailed with Captain Cook in search of new worlds. Other voyages of discovery—astronomical, chemical, poetical, philosophical—swiftly follow in Richard Holmes's thrilling evocation of the second scientific revolution. Through the lives of William Herschel and his sister Caroline, who forever changed the public conception of the solar system; of Humphry Davy, whose near-suicidal gas experiments revolutionized chemistry; and of the great Romantic writers, from Mary Shelley to Coleridge and Keats, who were inspired by the scientific breakthroughs of their day, Holmes brings to life the era in which we first realized both the awe-inspiring and the frightening possibilities of science—an era whose consequences are with us still.
BONUS MATERIAL: This ebook edition includes an excerpt from Richard Holmes's Falling Upwards.

You can't build Rome in a day, but you can build a playground.
That is what volunteers learned this month when they built new playgrounds at 10 Orange County elementary schools.
Starting in the morning and working through the afternoon, community and school volunteers fashioned tires and railroad ties into boats, bridges, swings, huts, dinosaurs, gardens and tunnels. The playgrounds were scaled for pre-kindergartners.

Here are a few of the best from Mr. Liollio:
Liollio: "Elementary school was like the 9th circle of HELL for me."

I shared several classrooms with Alex Liollio during our years at NC State, but we never hung out really so my memories are limited to such occasions as The Halloween Bash 2003 (Indiana Jones OMG) and The Terror of the 10-Point Type (co-starring Maura).
However I CAN say that Alex is one of the funniest, most interesting, and most unique people I've met. Not to mention I've never met anyone who is more passionate about everything he does. This is an awesome way to be…I wish I could be a little more like that!
Happy 24th Birthday, Liollio. Here's to you and all the ways you've touched the lives of others!

While in studio at NC State, Alex enjoyed reading Ludacris lyrics as if he was reciting Shakespeare poetry. Here are the some of the best lines (From "What's Your Fantasy?"—revised for the classroom):
We can do it in the pouring rain
Running the train when it is hot or cold out.
How about in the library?
On top of books?
(But Shhh…you can't be too loud!)
Would you like to make a brother beg for it?
Give me TLC, because you know I would be too proud.
We can do it in the White House.
Try and make them turn the lights out.
How about all the way up in the candy store?
(That chocolate, chocolate, make it melt.)
Whips and chains.
Smack a little booty up with my belt.
William would be proud.

How to Let Your Kids Make Mistakes and Learn/
As your children grow, how you parent and who you are as a parent is likely to evolve. Especially as they become teenagers. The societal debate over the right balance of parenting - helicopter parenting or free-range parenting — ultimately is a personal decision when it comes to what's right for your parenting style, your family, and in some cases, each individual child.
Regardless of which end of the spectrum you fall on, there's one thing all parents have in common: our children are going to make mistakes. With the best interest of our hearts, it is tempting to shield our kids from any wrongdoing, but let's face it — it's going to happen — and sometimes, it's okay. At any age, and especially as pre-teen and teenagers, by allowing them to make decisions and have experiences good or bad, kids understand consequences and learn how to be accountable, adapt, and move forward from a situation.
The result is hopefully stronger confidence — and better decision making in the future.
Whether it's in your teenager's physical daily life or with their online activity, here's how to let your children make mistakes - and learn.
Use your child's mistake as a teaching moment. When it comes to social media, it's inevitable that your teen/preteen will make a mistake. Maybe it's saying the wrong thing or posting the wrong photo. Here's where a big teaching moment comes in. Using behavior you want them to exhibit toward others as they mature, talk about what was said or done, and learn from it together. Don't hesitate to punish, if necessary, so they understand there are sometimes consequences to their actions. (A teen without their phone will learn very quickly.)
Use these moments to teach your child the art of the apology. When a child makes a mistake, hurts someone's feelings or acts rudely, whether it's intentional or not, they not only need to stop the behavior, they need to understand what it is like to be remorseful, and apologize. The kid in trouble may not think something is a big deal, fully understand what their action represents, or the impact it has on another person. Encouraging your teenager to think about their actions and apologize to anyone impacted, will teach them respect - and earn them respect.
One parent's example is of her teenager's first exposure to social media and Instagram. A friend posted a picture with all of their buddies hanging out at someone's house, only her son was not invited. His knee-jerk reaction was to lash out at these friends, in writing, by commenting on the photo. He said some pretty mean things to his friend because he was so hurt that he was left out. The mother regularly monitors her children's social media activity (with easy to use apps such as DijiWise), and saw the exchange the next day. She sat down and talked with him about it, and helped him sort through his very real anger surrounding the first time he truly felt excluded. In this situation, he learned how to handle it better and how not to put unkind words on Instagram or other social media networks. At first, she had him remove the post, followed by a public apology to the friend online. She then had her son meet his friend face-to-face to talk about what happened. During that conversation he learned the situation of the photo, which in fact had taken place while he was out of town, so he wasn't left out after all. Water now under the bridge -- an important learning moment.
Use real-life, relatable examples of mistakes you or others have made, and what happened as a result. Share a personal story, or an example of someone he or she may know, even a celebrity or public figure. Add these real-life lessons into daily conversation so your child can see consequences of making mistakes, especially ones that include online activity or social media. By doing so, your child will understand they're not being singled out, and that just because it happens elsewhere, doesn't mean it's okay. This will also help your teenager continue to mature into an adult who is respectful of themselves and of others, responsible in their daily interactions, and who practices online safety and digital responsibility.
Just remember, we're not failing as parents when our kids make mistakes. It's human and we make them, too. Most of us didn't grow up with social media (or the Internet for that matter), so it is difficult to truly understand what kids go through today. Finding a good balance between helicopter and free-range parenting when dealing with our kids' daily lives and social media usage will empower them with the knowledge and ability to make good choices and hopefully avoid "the talk" next time.

"This is an outstanding event that delivers fantastic results for us. The audience is huge but, more importantly, the quality of the prospects in the room is absolutely top class and means we can access decision makers from multiple new customers across two days. I have been to many events during my lengthy career in the technology industry and I can happily say this is one of the best I have been to. This is an extremely important event for us and one we will not miss as we always see tremendous results."
Marketing Manager, GitLab
"We wouldn't miss an opportunity to exhibit at Cloud Expo Europe – there is an excellent quality of delegate and the organisation is fantastic. The organisers really listen to what we say. In previous years, we've had development meetings which have been really refreshing. CloserStill really take on feedback from sponsors. The quality of business is also impressive – we have done over £40 million of business just from this show alone over the past two years. This year we've had even more quality conversations with lots of c-level executives and enterprise architects."
Marketing Manager, Northern Europe, NTT
"We have been exhibiting at Cloud Expo Europe for years as we have always seen great success at the show. We have an extensive cloud portfolio and as this is the biggest cloud exhibition in Europe it is important to have a presence here."
UK Marketing Manager, T-Systems
"This year's show is going very well for us. We are seeing a lot of interest in various cloud-related IBM solutions. Our dedicated VIP area has been great for meetings and discussions. I've arranged lots of meetings with customers and potential clients over the course of the two days. The VIP area has attracted plenty of IT directors and CTOs which has been really great. You really do get everybody here – like-minded individuals sharing experiences and useful insights."
Cloud Object Storage Sales, IBM
"We've been exhibiting at Cloud Expo Europe for a couple of years now. It's a huge opportunity for customer engagement and have a good chat with both existing and prospective clients. I've organised plenty of meetings to touch base with people – I wouldn't normally have the chance to see so many people in just two days! We see lots of senior level professionals here – IT directors and lead architects. It is important to have a presence here and get a message out to the audience. It introduces us to people who may not already know about us. We'll definitely be back in 2018!"
Client Manager, Nutanix
"Cloud Expo Europe is always looking to push the boundaries. In an industry renowned for constant change, Cloud Expo Europe seeks to innovate whilst remaining relevant to its core audience of technologists, analysts and systems architects to remain ahead of the game. The event with its enviable keynote line up is specifically designed to get you to think outside the box whilst providing valuable and practical insight from leading cloud practitioners. It's the one event that we place in the calendar without any hesitation, it has become a key element in our marketing strategy and provides us with a fantastic springboard for our new financial year. We have yet to attend a Cloud Expo Europe where we have not gained a major return on our marketing investment having won significant new business worth hundreds of thousands of pounds each time we have exhibited. There is no such thing as a 'sure thing' when planning events but Cloud Expo Europe is as near to one as is possible."

Born in Ecuador, Lucia currently lives in Singapore with her family. She writes poetry and prose in English and Spanish. Her poems have been featured in print and online in publications such as RiverLit, Poetry Quarterly, Three Line Poetry and Cha: An Asian Literary Journal, among others. Two of Lucia's poems were awarded first and third prize at the UPLI 2015 Global Poetry Contest. She writes for local magazines, blogs in Spanish at www.apuntes-de-aqui-y-alla.blogspot.sg and tweets as @lucyda.
Winner of the first prize at the 2015 UPLI contest in the Alexander Fui Sak Chang Award for short free verse in Chinese or English.
A meager stream ebbs
where the river used to flow
It glistens on the bedrocks
like scales on a serpent
The weeping willow
a thirsty lover
bending over the high bank
twisting its wilting branches
vainly offering its flowers
stretching its parched roots
trembling for its freshness
crying itself a river.
Winner of the third prize at the 2015 UPLI contest in the Rex Valentine Award for Narrative Verse.
She carries my essence,
the key to my future…
We met at that age when saying
that you believe you are Superman
doesn't begin to describe
how high you think you can fly.
When we were sophomores,
we started to create the algorithms,
building blocks of our cyber empire.
Then, the downturn hit us strong,
bankruptcy followed by years of pain
and a more modest start up
Believe me, this is not
the world financial domination
I thought I'd achieve.
And now this.
Untreatable. Manage your pain.
Make the best out of the time left.
I have managed,
but had to endure the
collateral damage
of the lost war against cancer.
So, getting my stuff out
before it was too poisoned was spot on.
Now my college sweetheart, my life mate
is carrying it,
a tiny whatever the combination
of our genes looks like.
I won't meet her, she is six months away
and I am pretty much done,
playing injury time here.
I have her ultrasound with me at all times.
It doesn't show her rosy cheeks,
but it will have to do for me.
First published online in Riverlit in December 2014
We, humans,
are a sensitive bunch.
We wince
whenever NatGeo
brings to our screen
a lion jumping on a zebra; or a spider
capturing the reflection of the moon
and passing flies with its web;
or a boa shedding worn skin
and donning a new jumpsuit
next time
it snacks on a mouse.
But watching a fracking well
—devised to inject our angsts
deep down on Earth
while raiding its entrails—
doesn't revolt us that much; it is rather
an acquired distaste.
Fractured and poisoned, Earth
has no recourse
but to convulse
and repel us all, creators
of the unnatural.
Joy, Repeat

brews in the dark

you, who moved out of the picture,
photobombing with your absence.
Rain Over Singapore
First published in Cha: An Asian Literary Journal, June 2015.
The dry spell lifted,
it is raining on parched soils
all over the Garden City.
Drops, silver eggs crashing
against the glass windows,
dance on the reservoirs,
chase away the Sumatra haze,
bring down to earth the construction dust,
dilute the Equatorial glare.
But after too many days
of fast, of thirst, of angst,
like a hungry ghost,
the soil is unable to swallow.
El Tiempo, De Nuevo
El campo donde caminábamos,
tan pardo que es ahora irreconocible,
se ha resignado a no esperar más por la lluvia.
En sólo una semana,
el equipo de demolición
ha desollado las entrañas
del edificio donde vivíamos.
Mi mano ha durado siete segundos
despidiendo al tren bala
que ha dejado la estacíon contigo,
bruma instantanea en mi memoria.
En el cafe de la esquina
hay un par de tazas a medio beber,
sobra la mesa donde nos reunimos por ultima vez.
Toda evidencia de ti se ha evaporado.
Fuiste un espejismo
y ahora eres real ausencia.

Good adaptation of W. Somerset Maugham's The Painted Veil, with particularly fine acting by George Sanders. Even in the film one detects Maugham's knowledge and wariness of human behaviour, and his insights that were assisted by his training as a medical doctor who understood the misery of the slums and the downtrodden and ill-treated who lived in them. Maugham's story for his novel, he writes in the preface to it, was suggested by lines of Dante that include
Siena mi fè; disfecemi Maremma:
Salsi colui, innanellata pria
These Maugham translates as "Siena made me, Maremma unmade me: this he knows who after betrothal espoused me with his ring." The seventh sin, incidentally, is not lust, but pride.

COVINGTON, KY (FOX19) - The Kentucky Adult Education Department is offering free GED testing to Kentuckians at adult education centers statewide through July 31.
The GED test provides adults who did not finish high school with the opportunity to certify their attainment of high school-level academic knowledge and skills. Normally, the entire GED test taken the conventional way on paper costs the test taker $60; the fee for taking the entire computer-based GED test is $120, a cost set by the national GED Testing Service. Free GEDclasses are available through local adult education programs in all 120 Kentucky counties.
"It's particularly important for those without a high school diploma to pass all five parts of the GE test this year, because the GE test will change January 1, 2014," said Peg Russell, director of adult education for Gateway Community and Technical College, which manages adult education centers in Boone, Grant, Kenton, and Owen counties.
"In Kentucky, there are about 16,000 people who have taken part of the test but have not completed it," Russell said. "Beginning Jan. 1, 2014, all previous scores will expire, and anyone who has started but not completed all five parts will have to start over. The last test date in Kentucky this year will be Dec. 18, 2013."
Russell noted that adult education centers offer free GED test preparation and a variety of other free education services. Northern Kentucky adult education centers are located at Gateway's Urban Center in Covington, its Boone Campus in Florence, and at KAE outreach centers in Dry Ridge and Owenton.
A complete list of Kentucky adult education centers can be found at http://www.kyvae.org/countycontacts.aspx.

As promised a few pictures of the new kitty.
Her name is Christmas, she was a stray found here at Cashew Heights. we are taking her into the vet tomorrow for her spaying appointment. When we found her she was probably about 3-4 months old. She had ringworm on her neck, so she spent the first 3 weeks isolated with little contact with the family and other pets. We also assume that she is pregnant as she is now a bit thick through the middle- but hopefully the spaying will not hurt her even if she is preggers.
She is a wonderful loving kitty. Lots of play with this one. Plus, she is small enough Kiera can carry her (as Sedona is probably at her all time high fighting weight!)
Anyway, enjoy.
P.S. Notice she is really very brindal colored and her back and tummy really look tiger striped. Plus she has yellow eyes. Very pretty indeed :-)

Two Indian women have won medals at the Olympics held in Rio.Indian women have been at the center of the Olympics 2016 held at Rio. Women in badminton, Golf and Wrestling.
Till recently, only men were at the helm of sports events but this time women have taken India to an all new level by winning medals.
Firstly lets look at PV Sindhu, the badminton player who has won a silver at the Olympics. PV Sindhu is certainly an example for Indian women not just in sports but all walks of life. PV sindhu won a silver against Carolina Marin of Spain in women's single's category. PV Sindhu has been under the coaching of P Gopichand. Success truly comes to those who work hard and are determined to get it. PV Sindhu has not used a Mobile phone in the last three months and was busy preparing for the Olympics. It is only after the Olympic games that Sindhu will go back to using her mobile phone. Her coach Gopichand said that, he will be returning her mobile phone now after a long break. It must be noted that PV Sindhu is the youngest Indian to win an Olympic.
Let us look at teenaged woman, ,Aditi Ashok who is representing India in golf at the Olympics. Aditi Ashok has qualified for the finals.
Long distance runner Lalita Babar is the second Indian woman to qualify for final track and finished 10th in the 3000m steeplechase final. Sakshi Malik has brought India a bronze medal in the 58 kg women's wrestling category becoming the first Indian female wrestler and fourth Indian woman to win an Olympic medal.
India has only known PT Usha to win medals and a handful other women sports. However this version of the Olympics is seeing a resurgence of women in sports. Women's sports now seems to be in safe hands
Most of the Indian women who attained success in sports in the past decade were considered to be affluent and westernized, however the Rio Olympics has seen Indian sportswomen coming from all walks of life. As long as there is sponsorship and support, people can excel in sports.Let's hope that Women in India will excel in sports like countries in the west.

The pineapple diet to lose 5 kilos in 3 days
Who has never had a few extra pounds and the immediate need to get rid of them overlooking a special event features whose celebration is imminent? So much so that, at times, we overlook, wrongly or rightly, the recommendations of professionals and our focus and strive to regain our figure quickly and with little effort to attend certain events and developments in the most satisfactorily possible. Here comes the famous pineapple diet ...And how do we get our objective? For through diets, although they are not widely supported by the medical sector, help us to eliminate our excesses quickly but certainly not healthy and effective, ie for life.We have marked on the calendar dinners, galas, presentations and other important events, but nevertheless we realize it or we realize this when just missing days or even hours for your celebration. And that's when we press, almost without realizing it, the panic button. But peace because we know that miracles do not exist, but so what about the Express remedies.Are many, varied and widely known by most. They all have one thing in common: they all revolve around a natural diuretic product, such as apple, artichoke and pineapple. These diets have been developed around these foods are quite similar, because the guidelines to follow are almost identical as the ultimate goal: lose enough weight in a short period of time. And as they say in these cases, it is ideal to reach our target set.We are building in summer and therefore no output and take advantage of refreshing and seasonal products, we will crumble here what is and what is the pineapple diet, always natural, that will put us in line for three days. A record!What is the pineapple diet and why it helps you lose weight fastIt is a method of thinning based on a single product, in this case pineapple, whose results are achieved immediately, the effectiveness is reduced and its consequences can be negative.What does this mean?First, and as already we mentioned, the pineapple is a diuretic product and as such help us deshincharnos. For one, it will quickly, since its main mission is to eliminate fluid retention, but the other hand, we must be aware that it will momentarily. For once the pineapple diet and return to our normal diet, we will recover the lost weight since I removed was mostly liquid. So please, do not expect the miracle of quedaros compliance with those kilos less for life, because miracles do not exist.And secondly, even the pineapple is a very beneficial food for our health as it is a diuretic, aids digestion and contains vitamins, base our diet on a single product carries risks. The first and most important, lack of nutrients, proteins and minerals for our body which is very harmful to our health. So if we decide to make the pineapple diet we will sporadically and for a short period of time.

A heart rate monitor calorie counter is often as important to users as the heart rate data itself. This is because cardiac exertion burns calories. Many beginning users want to lose weight while they get heart-healthy. Of course, those two benefits go hand-in-hand. However, consumers can easily find a range of cost-effective models of heart rate monitor calorie counter.
Heart Rate Monitor Calorie Counter: The Receiver
All heart rate monitors contain sensors which transmit and receive that data. This is important for anyone who wants to select the appropriate heart rate monitor calorie counter. Transmitters can be worn in a chest strap or in a wrist monitor watch. Many heart rate monitor calorie counter users like to stoke their motivation by punching up the data on-the-fly. Remember: heart monitor receiver sensors are almost always in the wrist unit.
Heart Rate Monitor Calorie Counter: Bells and Whistles
Technology always costs more. So, heart rate monitor shoppers are well-advised to determine their needs and wants before looking at heart rate monitor calorie counter products. If possible, try to match its features with your anticipated needs. Those who purchase inexpensive-but-effective monitors can always upgrade. A heart rate monitor calorie counter is one of the least costly models on the market.
Heart Rate Monitor Calorie Counter: Offloading
Finally, users need to determine if they expect to acquire a heart rate monitor calorie counter with computer connectivity. Manufacturers are continuously expanding their services to include web site data analysis of heart information downloaded from monitors. There is intrinsic motivation in seeing your own workout presented graphically, but connectivity costs more at this stage. Generally, connective features are more widely offered on more complex heart monitor products.
Those intent on losing weight have little to lose in a simple heart rate monitor that counts calorie.
