200hr Yoga Teacher Training - Bali
TRAINING BEGINS: september 17Th
How To Get There…
Please, book your flight to arrive by or on September 16th, 2016 in Denpasar, Indonesia (Airport code DPS). Training begins September 17th 2018.
Last day of training will be October 13th 2018. Please, book your flight to depart on or after October 14th, leaving anytime after 8am. (Ideally in the afternoon, so you don't have to get up too early!)
Once you have booked your flight, please email us your flight itinerary.
Please, email@example.com if you have any questions.
Tourist Visa:
*Passport must be valid for a least six months after your date of arrival.
You will need a 30 day Visa to attend the training. This can be obtained upon entering Indonesian Customs at the airport.
- Free Visa entry & VOA - Visa on Arrival: Depending on your passport there are three options to enter Indonesia that apply to most travelers that come for tourist or social purpose only:
- No Visa required (majority of countries - FREE entry, 30 days valid, NOT extendable)
- Visa on Arrival (35US$, 30 days valid, extendable (once for 30 days for an additional $70US$)
- Visa needed (apply abroad before arriving in Indonesia)
*Please refer to this link for more details.
*If you are planning to stay longer then 30 days in Indonesia. It is highly recommended that you apply for a 60 day tourist visa through your local Embassy of Indonesian. It is a hassle to extend a 30 day visa through the local Indonesian immigration service.
We will organize shuttle for you from airport to resort. The shuttle will be additional cost, depending how many people in your shuttle. This will be organized with you at least a week prior to the training, so you know exactly how much cash to bring and who you will be sharing a shuttle with.
Once you arrive in Bali you'll be greeted inside the airport terminal by your friendly driver with a Pondok Pitaya sign and then set out on a ride to paradise!

Studies revealed that human body weighs about 70kg has 0.229 milligram amount of pure GOLD.
While gold is not the main ingredient of human composition but you'll be delighted to know that gold naturally exists within your body right from your birth.
A human body is composed of different chemical compositions like oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon. Although gold can't be found in high amount like other elements but it does exist within your body.
The third edition of book 'The Elements' written by John Emsley and published by the Clarendon Press, Oxford, revealed that the average person's body weighing 70 kilograms would contain a total mass of 0.229 milligrams of gold.
It is the purest form of gold, so if one can imagine it in a cubical shape its diameter would be 0.22 milliliter from each side.
Role of Gold in a Human Body
This hidden treasure inside has been neglected since many years however 'Chemical Experts' have found it and also discovered its role in the human body. Gold plays its role both in health and proper functioning of joints. Moreover, it is also equally helpful in the transmittal of chemical or electric signals from the body.
Interestingly, silver can also be found but the amount of this mineral is higher than gold. Its about ten times higher than the Gold. A human can become a greedy soul, after knowing these facts about human body and occurrence of precious metals.
So which part of our body contains gold?
Let's find out!!!
'Toenail' is the main part where traces of gold exist. You never have had an idea that how precious your whole body is. YOU ARE A WALKING MINE!

Responses (1)
You should wait until your period starts and proceed with the directions for the first Sunday of the period start or the 5th day of the period start. Even if the period starts on a sunday, take it on that day. Take it regularly as close to 24 hours apart as possible. This should regulate your period. You are safe after the first 21 active pills are taken correctly, even on your next period. Make sure you start the new pack immediately following the inactive pills.

MongoDB will add multidocument ACID transactions support to its NoSQL database of the same name. Multidocument ACID transactions support has been the most-requested feature sought for MongoDB, said Seong Park, MongoDB's vice president of strategy and product marketing.
Multidocument support is planned for MongoDB 4.0, which is due this summer and reached beta stage this week. ACID transactions already have been supported at the document level in the database; now they can be done across documents as well as across collections within MongoDB. Collections in MongoDB are analogous to a table in a relational database.

While the launch of Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system will drive consumer PC sales in the coming months, the operating system's impact on sales of Apple's Macintosh are expected to be minimal, according to a recent report.
In a Feb. 14 research report, Gene Munster, an analyst with Piper Jaffray, surveyed 50 Best Buy retail stores and found that while the launch of the consumer version of Vista in January has driven buyers to look at new PCs, it does not appear this will affect Mac sales.
Of the 50 stores surveyed, 72 percent told Munster that Vista was driving an interest in new PCs, while only 29 percent said it wasn't. However, 80 percent of stores reported selling less Vista operating systems than anticipated.
However, Munster cautions that if buyers stick with buying Microsoft-based PCs, it could have an impact on Mac sales during the second quarter of this year. Mac's share of the market, according to the report, is expected to slide from 2.5 percent to 2.3 percent by the second quarter.
"Due to pent-up demand for PCs with Vista preinstalled, we anticipate a spike in PC sales during the Mar-07 quarter, which could put downward pressure on Mac market share," Munster wrote.
There also is a strong possibility that the renewed interest in purchasing a PC, especially a notebook, could lead consumers to consider a Mac as an alternative to a Windows-based computer.

You do not wish to receive a table that is likely to be quite low quality. If you do so you won't enjoy your table as far as possible and you are not likely to have a lot greater practicing it. Purchasing billiards and pool tables needs you devote a fantastic number of funds to be certain that to receive just what you want and also to be certain that you receive very good value for what you pay.
Above and beyond anything else you have to consider the dimensions billiards and pool tables which you are trying to buy for your property. A formal pool table is a hefty 9 ft and this is the perfect size since this is exactly what serious and official gamers perform.
Along with making certain that you have sufficient distance for the billiards and pool tables los angeles that you purchase you should be certain that you have sufficient spare space around it to perform it. Have a dimension of this billiards and pool tables positioning you intend on utilizing and then determine in the event that you have a little excess space around it. Possessing a couple feet of space enclosing in which your billiards and pool tables will proceed is essential so take this measure early on.
Space is actually important when it has to do with billiards and pool tables therefore there is another point you want to remember. Not having sufficient space for a typical sized table does not indicate you ought to automatically jump to a smaller table. A lot of folks would see they do not have space to get a 9 footer and thus they will downgrade into a 7 footer. It is far better to get a desk not to a bigger one, however a more compact table is not likely to be much pleasure or assist your game up to a correctly sized table. If you truly need the entire pool encounter then you have to discover a means to find a full sized dining table.
Ok, now that you have figured out exactly what dimensions billiards and pool tables you are likely to look at there is another important thing to keep in mind and that is how high caliber of a table you are likely to buy for your property. The reduced the quality of dining table you get the reduced the quality of stuff it is likely to be made of, particularly when it concerns the timber and felt the dining table is created from. Low excellent timber will be a whole lot lighter and poorer than high excellent wood. Felt that is not superior quality will get ruined much quicker than top quality felt. Overall a minimal excellent table will seem a whole lot worse compared to a premium excellent dining table but it's the flimsy nature of premium quality materials that produces low quality tables a issue.
There are loads of individuals who do not mind using billiards and pool tables which don't seem that glistening or striking who are none the more worried about if the table they purchase is really fantastic to play. Premium quality tables are much better to play then low high quality tables. It is apparent once you're playing a bad excellent table in contrast to playing a premium excellent table. Low quality tables are not likely to present flat felts to perform and there is a fantastic chance they'll wobble or angle because of badly constructed and quantified legs. You may not even detect these issues consciously however they will in reality mess your game up, and if you are constantly playing a terrible dining table you won't play efficiently on a fantastic table. Rather than worrying about this it is ideal to simply get a very large excellent table made from great materials and strong construction.
Ultimately it is far better to possess any table to perform frequently without a table to perform frequently, but it does not mean that you ought to possibly harm elements of your game using a minimal excellent table.
Obviously the principal determinant for most people in regards to the table they buy is how much it costs. There is not a pool player on the market that does not want really top of the lineup official billiards and pool tables which are built in the finest possible materials and that are complete 9 footers. Truth nevertheless rears its ugly head and makes it crystal clear that the majority of people today will need to consider what that sort of table will cost them. This will definitely cost the very best factor a lot of men and women think about when buying billiards and pool tables.
Now cost is a significant aspect to take into account and you do not wish to do anything fiscally unwise on your pursuit of the very best pool table which you could find on the available but that does not mean that you need to go in the marketplace considering cost above and beyond anything else. Rather you ought to do this report outlines in the sequence it summarizes. First you ought to find out whether a 9 footer is appropriate to you whatsoever or how it is possible to create 1 job, then you want to determine which level of quality you'll be able to utilize, and ultimately you have to begin to consider what you could afford to spend on your desk or the way you are likely to pay for the table which you need.
Not having the cash available does not mean that you won't have the ability to acquire the billiards and pool tables which you would be pleased with, you only have to produce a two or 2. For instance you'll be able to compromise a bit on the size or make of this table in the event you truly want to. Rather than compromising on quality or period simply take that you won't possess the table you truly need this instant and that you need to rather become OK with waiting a bit be for this. Finding the maximum quality most gratifying table a few months after you then initially envisioned is far better than getting a very low excellent table instantly.
There is no reason to stress out over the idea of purchasing billiards and pool tables although it's a choice that needs some significant thought and attention. By considering just a few vital factors like those outlined above you are going to be in a excellent place to feel enthused about the possibility of purchasing billiards and pool tables rather than worried over it. Do not spend too long considering it. Choose exactly what you want, decide how you are going to get that, then behave!

Dozer's mom Angie emailed me after they brought their art piece home from the CityDog Magazine art show thanking me for the art and letting me know that they were waiting to finish remodeling before they could hang it.
Well yesterday she sent me an email saying that the triptych is up and in it's permanent home, yay! She sent this awesome photo below of Dozer with his new art.
How cute is Dozer sleeping in front of his colorful likeness? Don't you just want to curl up next to him and cuddle?
Darling Dozer dozing on the davenport.
If you are a client that has commissioned art or photography from me, snap a photo of your art or photography hanging on your wall(s) (doesn't have to be a great pic!) and I'll post it on my blog. I love receiving photos and emails from past clients; especially from their furkids.
Here is an email I received from my buddy Cooper back in 2005:
Dear Jamie.
Sorry it has taken me so long to write you. What with my cousin's HS
graduation, 4 days of daycare last week and just plain ol' stuff, I've been
busy and or tired!
Wanted to let you know Mom & Dad put my pictures up on the wall and boy do I
look great!!!!! If I may say so myself. They must think so too since they
took down a Homer Winslow print for my pictures.
Thank you again for all your work and talents. Hope your gallery showing
well. And hope you got lots more customers at Lucky Dog today. It sure was a
nice day. But I wouldn't know since I slept most of the day.
WWFN! (woof woof for now)

We all know the feeling. You hear your alarm clock go off and you hit the snooze button only to hear your alarm clock go off again and once more hit the snooze button. I can definitely tell you that hitting that snooze button will not make your monday that much easier to get through but here are some tips to make your Monday, and for that matter, your week, start off much better.
- Set your clothes out the night before. Ever wonder why Steve Jobs (RIP) and Mark Zuckerberg wear pretty much the same colored clothes each and every single day? Because they dont want to have to make too many decisions on their way out of their home each and every morning. Why should we be spending 30 minutes of useless decision making on what clothes to wear? Put simply: Set your clothes out the night before!
- Exercise early. The key is that "you get up and move," whether that's jogging, weight lifting, or yoga. The discipline comes in in setting a schedule and sticking to it so that your day begins with an energizing accomplishment, not a demoralizing stretch of time where you lie in bed and hit snooze on your alarm a few times. Every morning should start off with a predictable routine.
- Keep a daily schedule to the minute. Benjamin Franklin was obsessive about planning his days. Each morning, he would wake up at 4:00 a.m. and meticulously piece together a schedule. There's a clear message to take from Franklin's habit: prudent goal setting pays dividends. When you plan out your day as carefully as possible, your chances of successfully accomplishing your goals skyrocket.
- Say no. No is a powerful word, which will protect your precious mornings. When it's time to say no, avoid phrases such as "I don't think I can" or "I'm not certain." Saying no to a new commitment honors your existing commitments, and your morning time is an important commitment. Research conducted at the University of California in San Francisco showed that the more difficulty that you have saying no, the more likely you are to experience stress, burnout, and even depression.

It is no surprise that some of the most important inventions of all time have come from some of the cleverest people to have ever lived. People like Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell, who used their intelligence and dedicated their lives to making your life that little bit easier. Because things like telephones, electricity, light bulbs, and television weren't invented overnight.
Yet there are a few exceptions to this rule. Sometimes a glorious invention will be the product of a quick moment of improvisation. Other times they can be an unexpected consequence of a person trying to create something else entirely. Very occasionally, though, it will simply boil down to extremely good luck. So sit back and take a look at some of the things that were invented totally by accident, starting with the… | Read at WhatCulture

Do you write words? If you do, do you like the sound of "processed words"? Does word processing sound appealing to you?
Try this exercise. Open your favorite word processor, then copy the following paragraph into it:
"Word processing" is an ugly term from the era where computer technology was still new and exciting, and terms like "electronic era" and "data entry" still had a ring of efficiency to them. It was the time when people actually believed a computer could be called an "electronic brain" with some accuracy, and office workers were expected to master the new "computing machinery" as-is. Today, people are much less inclined to accept what they've been given and rightly demand that software support their workflow, rather than the other way around.
Now select the first line of this paragraph, from its opening quote to its period.
How did you do it? I imagine you did it in either of two ways: you either took the mouse and carefully dragged the pointer across the screen while holding the left mouse button pressed, or you pressed the Home key and then held Control, Shift and the right cursor key until the entire sentence was selected. You probably didn't use the shortcut for the "select sentence" function, because your word processor probably doesn't have such a function. Reflect on this for a moment. Your word processor, which is supposedly designed to help you write text on a computer, has no notion of an essential building block of text.
Microsoft Word, the word processor with the most market share, has no "select sentence" function. You can double-click to select a word, or triple-click to select an entire paragraph (I believe the latter is a fairly recent addition). If you want to a solution for quickly selecting a sentence, the Internet will readily suggest macros for accomplishing this. In other words, although Word cannot select sentences, it does have the built-in capacity for computer programmers to modify its behavior. Which of these sounds more fundamental to you?
Of course, making this function available out of the box would be trivial, and there may very well be word processors that do have it as a basic function, but it's telling that it's not common. What's absurd is not that word processors are still stuck in the seventies mindset, but that we accept this without questioning. The term "word processor" itself is disgustingly honest about it: we're not writing text, we're processing words. It's nice but not essential if your word processor helps you with writing text. Its primary task is to digitize what's already there, providing ready access to formatting and layout options so your raw thoughts look presentable on paper. For a telling illustration of this, take a look at a proposal for a word processor that's easy to use for people who aren't used to word processors (like kids).
(Image taken from http://kexi-project.org via KDE to sue MS over Ribbon GUI?)
Note how the right side of the screen is almost entirely occupied by formatting functions. At the top, we have the trinity of Cut-Copy-Paste and the basic document management functions (New-Open-Save-Print). Aside from Cut-Copy-Paste, the only function specifically geared to writing text is Check (which presumably invokes the spelling checker). The demonstration text explains how to select lines (not sentences!) and how to select everything. It's a perfect word processor microcosm.
My intent is not to hold up this design as an object of scorn. Almost all word processors look like this, the only difference is that the professional word processors have even more formatting functions, the ability to insert images and tables into the text, and sundry other functions of use to specialists. The question is: aside from the spelling checker, what of this really helps me construct a text worth reading? Are programs designed to format and redact a single linear piece of text the best we can do?
I think we can actually do better, but elaborating those thoughts will have to wait for another post. For now, I'd like to leave you with this: think about how you write any substantial piece of text, then think about the way your word processor is or isn't supporting you. You might be surprised.

Hi all.
I get the impression this is generally a board frequented by Brits but thought I would ask anyway.
I previously had a tremendous cardiologist when I was living in QLD.
Since moving to Sydney I have been completely underwhelmed by my current cardiologist - and Dr for that matter and was wondering if anyone could recommend one or both from their experiences?
I live around Ryde but am happy to travel if it's the right person.

More colours...
Time is a-getting on and I'm hurriedly colouring in my card. Not in my usual meditative state when I'm doing it this time, as I'm concious of having to do it quickly before Christmas has been and gone.
Slight panic today as the printer is ink-less and I have no greetings card card to print on as my supplier hasn't delivered my order yet. Grrrr! Still, an email in my box today said they'd dispatched it all so here's hoping.

Journey to equatorial Ghana, known for its coastal landscape of unspoiled, palm-lined beaches, magnificent rivers surrounded by fecund tropical forests teeming with butterfly life, and rich cultural heritage stretching far into the early medieval ages, to support communities in their efforts to improve the quality of basic education offered at schools, increase awareness around how to prevent common illnesses and provide women with the support they need to become more financially independent and socially empowered.
Program Information
Join GVI's women's empowerment program starting in 2018 to provide support to local organisations working to promote gender equality in the Greater Accra region. The objectives of this program are specifically aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goal #4, Gender Equality.
OverviewAcross Ghana, women still own less land than men and have a lower annual income. Through combined efforts with local partners, we will be working together to increase females' access to education, while improving their employment opportunities and quality of life. Joining this program as a volunteer will allow us will increase local capacity, and will allow GVI's partner organisations greater focus on the sustainable development of women's rights in Ghana to bridge the gap between men and women.
Through various initiatives in Ghana, we aim to assist in gender equality through various educational, healthcare or income initiatives. We aim to empower local women through various educational activities, and build their capacity to support themselves and their families further.
- Contribute towards meaningful and sustainable women's empowerment initiatives
- Develop your teamwork, leadership and mentoring skills
- Meet participants from across the world, developing your cross cultural skills
- Explore Ghanaian culture and discover Accra's hidden, historical gems
Many GVI programs are great working vacations. They will provide you with skills you can use the rest of your life. You will have an amazing experience and meet people you will remember for the rest of your life. You will be working alongside people as young as college ages, to people between jobs and from all walks of life. The settings are often rustic, but turn out more comfortable than you expect.

Most of us have been in a situation where language (or rather the lack thereof) restricted us from doing certain things. [...]
Project LifeWomen's empowerment volunteers will work with a variety of female students teaching both practical and conversational English, health and life skills classes across different ages and levels, depending on the needs of the local community at the time. In addition to contributing to sustainable development efforts, you get a chance to immerse yourself in the Ghanian culture, lifestyle and language.
Participants should be prepared to be flexible and adapt to changes in the field. From providing one-on-one educational lessons or large group classes; to delivering health and life skills workshops. Your time and efforts will help females improve their self-determination, increase families and communities' quality of life, and help females to meaningfully contribute towards increasing the productivity, economic, and social development of Ghana.
You will work on the project Monday to Friday, planning and delivering educational classroom lessons. Weekends are yours to explore the surrounding area or simply relax at base with your fellow volunteers.
Accommodation is in a centrally located house or apartment with electricity and shared rooms and bathrooms. You will enjoy daily communal meals with your fellow volunteers.
Project DetailsProjects are varied, and are developed according to the specific needs of the local communuty at the time, as well as our local partner organisations. Typical projects involve workshops on professional development, healthcare or gender equality.
How this program makes a difference:
GVI volunteers looking to work on our women's empowerment programs in Ghana will be providing the local woman with the training and knowledge they need to develop their professional skills, improve their general health, continuing their education and developing a career plan. In turn, these tools mobilise gender parity to become a reality.
Ghana's short, mid, and long-term objectives:
All of our programs have short, mid and long-term objectives that fit with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This enables us to report on our collaborative impact across the world in a streamlined manner, measuring which UN SDGs we are making a substantial contribution to. Furthermore, this will help our local partners and communities measure and visualize their contribution to the UN SDGs. Upon arrival to base, you will be educated about the history of the UN SDGs. You will learn about the specific goals of your location, the long-, mid- and short-term objectives, and also clarification of how your personal, shorter-term involvement contributes to these goals on a global level. Our aim is to educate you on local and global issues, so that you continue to act as active global citizens after your program, helping to fulfil our mission of building a global network of people united by their passion to make a difference.

We checked in with our long term field staff for advice and travel tips. We have put together the following information on trips and travel options in Ghana!
Optional Side Trips
On your weekends or while off project, the following short trips are popular and should definitely be checked out!
• Visit historic Jamestown and discover all the beautifully dishevelled colonial buildings, clapboard houses and corrugated iron shacks.
• Head over to the Makola market for a true African market experience. Be sure to try out some of the local cuisine that is sold here by the local vendors.
• Take a trip to the National Museum for insight into the local cultural or head to the ANO Centre for Cultural Research and check out the Ghanian art!
• Alternatively, for a relaxing day out, be sure to check out Bojo Beach just west of the city of Accra.
Further Travelling Opportunities
If you have the time and budget, there are a number of opportunities for exploring more of Ghana. These could include taking a tour of Cape Coast's historic whitewashed castle, a former slave-holding site. For the nature lovers there's Mole National Park, home to about 90 species of mammals, including African elephants. After going on safari you might want to head to Fort San Antonio for a guided tour of this historical monument and experience the amazing views of the cosatline from the top of the fort. The travel opportunities in Ghana are endless!

Charlie Lee: China Bitcoin Mining Ban Rumors are False• https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com
Litecoin creator Charlie Lee says a trusted source has told him that China will not ban bitcoin mining operations or the bitcoin network. He says the rumors are being propagated by large-scale traders who are attempting to manipulate the bitcoin price.
Lee revealed this information Thursday night on Twitter, stating that he had not traded on the knowledge before making it public.
With this tweet, Lee joins MGT Capital's John McAfee in contradicting a series of rumors suggesting that China would widen its crackdown on cryptocurrency to extend to mining. Citing a conversation with Bitmain co-founder Jihan Wu, McAfee stated that regulators will not make mining illegal.
Nevertheless, Chinese miners account for a majority of the bitcoin hashrate, and the markets have been shaky as they attempt to separate rumor from fact.This fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) present within the market "is propagated by large manipulators trying to make money shorting," Lee suggested. "They know that China ban FUD works and cannot be proven wrong."
He added that the order-book exchange ban "is still absolutely true," although it is "not clear" whether China will shut down all peer-to-peer trading platforms (BitKan has already announced it will terminate its trading platform). Of course, many industry observers–including Blockchain Capital's Spencer Bogart–have pointed out that a ban on peer-to-peer trading would indirectly ban professional bitcoin mining as well since miners would not have an outlet to sell the coins they mine.
Lee has been ahead of much of the recent news regarding China's cryptocurrency squeeze. Citing an anonymous source, he predicted the bitcoin exchange ban, along with OKCoin and Huobi's meeting with regulators to discuss the terms of their closures.

Frogs are cold blooded animals. Unlike humans, frogs do not perspire, thus cannot maintain a certain body temperature. They tend to adjust and easily be comfortable with the temperature of their environment. This tendency makes a frog vulnerable if subjected to an experiment.
For instance, a frog is put in a pot half-filled with tap water, it'll comfortably sit there as if having a bath. If the burner will be turned-on in a low flame, the frog's body temperature will adjust and slowly it will heat up with the water.
Continuously doing the same thing, the frog won't notice because it will also continue to change and be the same as its surroundings. Because of this, the frog does not recognize the danger it's in. It keeps on going along with the changes of its surroundings. Eventually turning up the water to a deadly boil, again… it will keep on trying to adjust but by the time it realizes that's it's killing him… it's too late.<br.
Because of the Filipinos' go-with-the-flow attitude, we tend to adjust and keep on doing what we are used to do, not minding the possible dangers waiting at the end of the road. Addiction? Maybe… The mere fact that anything in excess is bad must encourage us reconsider our attitude and if possible, change it..
Don't put up with rising temperatures, After all, you are the captain of your ship. Don't be a boiled frog!

Someone says they are abused & amateur psychologists blame the victim.

I think I'm going to jail for a very very long time of my life. I will probably die there and if not be forced to commit suicide in jail.
I live in Israel and I am already in serious trouble with the Israeli authorities for failing to pay taxes on time and for other economic/financial crimes.
My physical health is also very bad but I can't get medical treatment because of legal and financial problems that I'm facing right now.
What scares me more is that when I'm going to be released from jail in a very long time from now I'll be homeless with no roof over my head and no food to eat. I will probably starve to death on the streets after I will be released from jail.
No. It's called keeping it real. As if you have said anything to actually enlighten anything for the person you supposedly have sympathy for. Maybe your version of kindness is further telling someone what they want to hear while having actually no real solutions. Right, like that's so much more ethical and kind.
My having no solution is unrelated to you blaming the victim.
I could not tell him what he wants to hear. I do not have enough information. Neither do you.
You cannot be enlightened unless you want it.
I can't stand my father because I think that he doesn't really care about me.
He knows that I can't go to work and produce my own money because I'm sick but he still uses me and forces me to live with him.
Many times I get the feeling that no one really cares about me, not even my parents.
pluto, at this point I don't think anyone on SciForums will be able to help your situation - it might be worth going to a group such as Amnesty International or the like?
I care but that is all I can do. Probably others here care but it is awkward to say so here.
Many times I wonder why the people on the Internet are so abusive and mean.
In a forum called "Wrong Planet" (a online community for people with Autism and Asperger's syndrome ) for example they completely ignore all my posts and treat me like I'm nonexistent and invisible.
And this is not the first time that someone gives me the silent treatment like that.
I hate it when people treat me like that and some people call my ugly and say other mean stuff to me.
Many people on the Internet are simply bad people and this is why I stopped talking or forming any form of contact with people on the Internet.
The adage "Laugh and people will laugh with you; cry, and you cry alone" applies on the internet more than in real life.
(Actually, more like cry and you'll me mocked and ridiculed.)
Internet fora among strangers is not a very good place to bring up the issues that you face and the things you want to talk about.
You would do better in a more intimate arena, where people can get to know each other and swap empathy. Not sure where one can go online for that, but I'm sure they're out there. Best of all is to find a local help group where you can meet in-person.
And if there aren't any near you, maybe you can start one. Who knows how many others there are out there, just like you who could use a kindred spirit.
Many people are abusive & mean & many of them are on the internet. Surely you have experienced such offline.
It is an unfortunate fact of human nature.
Separate names with a comma.

Madonna is pushing 50, yet she's one of the most buffed-up celebrities you're likely to see. She follows a rigorous 6-day-a-week exercise regime to stay in shape for those energetic live shows.
During her life in the English countryside, Madonna could do more exercise outside than she could ever have done in New York City.
She said recently, "I mix it up - Pilates, yoga. I do it six days a week. Actually, Sunday is horse riding. There is no such thing as a day off."
But Madonna's real secret is her Power Plate machine (pictured, right). This oscillating 'miracle machine' claims to offer the benefits of an hour-long workout in just 15 minutes!
The only problem? It'll set you back $15000. However, Power Plates are starting to be seen in some gyms now.
Denise Richards
Losing that post-natal baby weight is one of the hardest things you'll ever do, but Denise Richards lost 30 pounds in 4 months after having her second child. Denise got up at 5am every morning and went to the gym with her personal trainer to lift weights and do cardio.
Denise proves it - there's nothing unusual about the diets or exercise regimes of most of these celebs, they just have incredible motivation to pull it off.
Reese Witherspoon
Everyone's favorite girl-next-door, Reese is another one of those celebrity moms who get back in shape so fast.
Reese stayed away from the hard workouts, enrolling instead in Kundalini Yoga classes with Gurmukh, an internationally renowned Yoga teacher.
It only took Reese 8 weeks to get back into movie star shape. She also makes sure to eat healthy and gets plenty of outdoor exercise and walking when she can.
Uma Thurman
When Uma lost her baby weight, she was lucky enough to have an exercise plan ready made for her. The 'Kill Bill' star actually used the sword-fighting and martial arts training that she picked up in her movie with Quentin Tarantino.
Thanks to this high energy, aggressive workout, Uma was able to lose 25lbs in just 6 weeks. For the rest of us, sword-fighting is not usually an option offered by our local gym! Kick boxing classes are a good substitute though.
Britney Spears
Britney put on weight during her pregnancy, but soon after the birth, Britney cut out all the Southern fried food that she was brought up on and instead ate meals full of vegetables and low calorie leafy greens.
The best exercise tip that Britney can give us though, is dancing. Britney's body transforms every time she goes on tour, as her energetic dance routines bounce her back into shape.
I'm sure most of you noticed Fergie's body transformation. She achieved it with hard work and dedication.
Four times a week she spends an hour on a varied exercise routine that includes running 2-3 miles, lifting light weights and doing lunges and crunches.
Evangeline Lilly
Evangeline keeps her daily exercise routine interesting by mixing it up with running, yoga, Pilates, dance, weights, scuba diving, and surfing.
Her 2 top health tips? Get 8 hours of sleep and drink plenty of water.
Marisa Tomei
If you have recently seen the movie "The Wrestler" than you have been able to see how good 44 year old Marisa Tomei's body looks. She's in great shape for a 25 year old, never mind a woman of her age.
She credits her physique to Hula Hoop dancing. It whittles down that waistline by strengthening the torso muscles, and its also intensive enough to really get your heartrate up.
You can buy exercise videos online from Hoopgirl. You can use the Hula Hoop around your waist, hips, and arms, or even lie on the floor to work out your legs.
Jessica Alba
Have you wondered how Jessica Alba magically bounced back from having a baby so fast?
"I play all of the Wii fit Sports games, like bowling, tennis and baseball. That's a lot of fun", says the beautiful actress with one of the most enviable bodies in the world.
If there is any chance I can look that perfectly svelte I'll buy one right now!
Katy Perry
This upbeat singer has energy to spare, but needs to focus on her workout routine when she's travelling for concerts and media appearances. She takes a skipping rope with her everywhere - its very economical and portable for traveling.
"I hate working out, but I love jumping rope," says the star. "There's a rhythm. It's like dancing. I can double jump; I can cross. I can do all of it. I look like Rocky when I jump rope."

For those associated with Leeds United, the season so far has been all about Pontus Jansson. The loanee defender has become such an integral part of the Leeds United set-up that not a week passes by without him making the headlines.
The defender was excellent again versus Barnsley on Saturday as Leeds United held off a late Barnsley fight back to cap off a pulsating Yorkshire derby with a 2-1 victory. While he has made a name for himself with his crunching tackles, the Swede also showed that he can defend with just any part of his body, clearing the ball away with his back!!

It's fair to say that we don't normally pay a lot of attention the Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference. The conference is held every year and Apple uses it to announce new products and new features. This year we've paid slightly closer attention as there's some good news regarding road safety from Apple.
Apple has announced that there will be a new big update to their iOS software, which is the software that will be present in the new iPhone 8's, but the software is also downloadable on most other iPhones. The new iOS11 will include a 'do not disturb while driving' feature that will be a safety benefit for all road users.
The new feature extends the use of the current 'do not disturb' feature, that can be turned on and off in the settings screen. Impressively, the new feature will be able to detect when you are driving and disable your phone from use, according to Apple.
It is able to do this by using a number of already built-in features on the iPhone, such as Bluetooth connectivity, wifi doppler effects (for cars with wifi) and accelerometers.
Once the phone has detected that you are driving the screen will blank and divert all incoming calls, messages and any other notifications, in an attempt to eliminate as much phone distraction as possible.
The feature will also send a message on your behalf, letting those who are trying contact you know that you are driving and not ignoring them for no reason. The feature will still allow you to use your sat nav on your phone if you need to.
What if I am a passenger? – CamTrak – Accident Cameras
Passengers and those on public transport are obviously able to disable this feature, as can the driver (as it is a selective option) though it is a little trickier than just pressing a button.
Obviously this isn't ground breaking technology and unfortunately, many people will choose not to use this new feature but it is a step in the right direction.
CamTrak – Accident Cameras
Thank you for reading the latest news from CamTrak. We work with leading manufacturers to design and develop technologically advanced video telematics solutions. For more information on our accident cameras, get in contact with us today

Date of Birth : March 14, 1988
Place of Birth : Sacramento, California
Sasha Grey was born and raised in North Highlands, California to a working class family. Her mother worked for the state of California and her father is a Greek-American mechanic. Her parents divorced when she was 5 and subsequently she was raised by her mother, who remarried in 2000. Grey states that she felt miserable at home around her stepfather, and as a result at 16, informed her mother she was going to move out. It is unclear as to whether or not she in fact left the home. She's stated that while her parents don't like everything she does, they get along. Grey attended four high schools, among them Highlands High, before graduating, having been unhappy in each one, though it should be noted she graduated a year early, at 17. In autumn 2005, she attended junior college and took classes in film, dance, and acting. She waited tables at a steakhouse through March 2006 and saved $7,000 for a move to Los Angeles.

Welcome to Gateshead & Newcastle Branch
We are a very busy branch covering a large area of the North East across Newcastle City Council and the Gateshead area.
The Gateshead & District Branch was established in December 2001 and is completely run by volunteers. As our branch does not have a shelter, all of our cats are looked after by Fosterers in their own homes.
We are always on the look out for more volunteers so please get in touch if you would like to help. We have volunteers who are involved in fostering, fundraising, rehoming, administration and publicity, so there are lots of opportunities to find the right role for you.
We are currently in need of volunteer fosterers and volunteers to work within our rehoming team. Please see our
page for further details.
One of the best ways you can help us is to
Adopt a Cat
from us. Every cat we home leaves a space for another needy cat or kitten to come into our care. Please take a look at our Adopt a Cat pages and get in touch.
You can also help by making a donation to help our work - all funds we raise go directly towards helping the cats an kittens in our care. Please go to our

Passing the HSPT (High School Placement Test) requires the mastering four skill sets: quantitative, math, reading, and language. There are several things to keep in mind while preparing for this admission test to parochial schools. The following is a list of strategies that, if followed, should lead to a passing score on the HSPT.
Check with the admissions office of the school to which you're applying to find out the goal scores for the HSPT that they require for admission consideration.
Prepare for the exam by understanding all sections involved in the test. Some schools require one of three optional tests in addition to the regular HSPT. These optional tests include Mechanical Aptitude, Science, and Religion. Again, check with the admissions office of your desired school to find out if one of these optional tests will also be administered.
Enroll in an online HSPT preparation class. These can take various forms, from actual graded preparation courses to speed drills and practice tests. Check the fine print on company websites that provide online classes to determine who is a reputable source.
Study with hard copy test prep materials, such as books and CD-ROMs. Many libraries have up-to-date copies of test prep books with interactive media included.
Double check the time, location, and materials needed for the HSPT with the admissions office of the school to which you're applying. Make sure you write down this information and keep it in a convenient location.
Arrive early for the exam. Some schools will not let you take the exam if you arrive after the designated start time.
Answer every question. With the HSPT, every correct answer counts. You are not marked off for incorrect answers, therefore guessing on the questions you don't know could end up helping your score if you guess correctly.
- Barron's, Kaplan and Peterson's are standard names in test prep materials, so anything affiliated with them should be trustworthy.
- Try to relax the night before the exam. Cramming until the wee hours will only cause more stress. Instead, do something to take your mind off of the exam, like going for a swim, or watching a movie with friends.
- Ask a current Catholic high school student for advice on passing the HSPT. They might have the "insider's track" on what you need to know about the test.

Presentation of Financial Information
Forward-Looking Statements
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include general economic conditions, the performance of the financial and credit markets, the economic environment for the hospitality industry, the impact of war, terrorist activity or political strife, operating risks associated with the hotel, vacation exchange and rentals and vacation ownership businesses, as well as those described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the
Table 3
Number of Rooms: Represents the number of rooms at lodging properties at the end of the period which are either (i) under franchise and/or management agreements, or company owned and (ii) properties under affiliation agreements for which the Company receives a fee for reservation and/or other services provided.
Average Occupancy Rate: Represents the percentage of available rooms occupied during the period.
Average Daily Rate (ADR): Represents the average rate charged for renting a lodging room for one day.
RevPAR: Represents revenue per available room and is calculated by multiplying average occupancy rate by ADR. Comparable RevPAR represents RevPAR of hotels which are included in both periods.
Vacation Exchange and Rentals
Average Number of Members: Represents members in our vacation exchange programs who paid annual membership dues as of the end of the period or who are within the allowed grace period. For additional fees, such participants are entitled to exchange intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company's vacation exchange business. In addition, certain participants may exchange intervals for other leisure-related services and products.
Exchange Revenue Per Member: Represents total annualized revenues generated from fees associated with memberships, exchange transactions, member-related rentals and other servicing for the period divided by the average number of vacation exchange members during the period.
Vacation Rental Transactions: Represents the number of transactions that are generated during the period in connection with customers booking their vacation rental stays through the Company. One rental transaction is recorded for each standard one-week rental.
Average Net Price Per Vacation Rental: Represents the net rental price generated from renting vacation properties to customers and other related rental servicing fees during the period divided by the number of vacation rental transactions during the period.
Vacation Ownership
Gross Vacation Ownership Interest Sales: Represents sales of vacation ownership interest (VOIs), including WAAM sales, before the net effect of percentage-of-completion accounting and loan loss provisions. See Table 9 for a reconciliation of Gross VOI sales to vacation ownership interest sales.
Tours: Represents the number of tours taken by guests in our efforts to sell VOIs.
Volume per Guest (VPG): Represents Gross VOI sales (excluding tele-sales upgrades, which are non-tour upgrade sales) divided by the number of tours. The Company has excluded non-tour upgrade sales in the calculation of VPG because non-tour upgrade sales are generated by a different marketing channel. See Table 9 for a detail of tele-sales upgrades for 2012-2015.
Constant Currency: Represents a comparison eliminating the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods (foreign currency translation).
Currency-Neutral: Represents a comparison eliminating the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations between periods (foreign currency translation) and the impact caused by any foreign exchange related activities (i.e., hedges, balance sheet remeasurements and/or adjustments).

The School is primarily of interest to PhD students, but the School is also open to undergraduate/postgraduate students and researchers with an interest in the subject area. Tutorials and lectures will be delivered by internationally renowned speakers who are experts in various areas related to the evolution of meaning, from ontologies and knowledge representation to natural language processing, agent-based systems and language evolution.
The registration deadline is 5 October 2014, at midnight (CET). For registration details, please see our registration page. A number of bursaries will be offered to cover registration and/or accommodation and subsistence, on the basis of applicants' CVs and motivation letters, which should also explain whether additional funding is available from other sources to cover part of the participation and/or travel cost. Bursaries will cover registration fees and/or accommodation, subject to availability. They do not cover travel expenses. To apply, please visit the registration page. The deadline for bursary applications is 5th October 2014; however, we will still try to consider first-rate applications received past this date. Applicants will be notified in good time to make travel arrangements.
About the Autumn School
The ESSENCE Autumn School will feature a host of lectures, tutorials and training courses delivered by top experts in Artificial Intelligence and related fields. Themes of the Autumn School include: ontology matching; learning; theory repair; knowledge resources; dialogue, decision, and agreement in multi-agent systems; as well as a half-day transferrable skills course in research project management for doctoral students. Please visit our Programme page for details.
About ESSENCE
ESSENCE is a Marie Curie Initial Training Network funded under the European Commission's 7th Framework Programme (agreement no. 607062) that runs from November 2013 to October 2017. It is a four-year research training network that will build a European research base for the study of evolving semantic in natural and artificial communication. ESSENCE investigates how meaning emerges and evolves through communication among intelligent systems. We develop methods that enable software agents, sensors, and robots to autonomously negotiate meaning among themselves. Our methods are inspired by the capabilities of humans to understand each other despite differences in their individual viewpoints.
The network supports 15 young scientists at the doctoral and post-doctoral levels who investigate different aspects of the overall research theme in close collaboration with industry and a number of leading academic institutions across Europe. The fellows are supervised by leading experts from at least two institutions. They spend extended periods of time visiting other institutions within the network, including secondments with industrial and governmental organisations.
In addition to scientific training, which includes work on doctoral theses, publications, and participation in conferences and workshops, the network provides training in a broad range of transferable skills, such as project management, technical writing, and entrepreneurship. ESSENCE features an extensive programme of training, dissemination, and outreach events.

Long-term food and health policies for enhancing children's physical development: evidence from a longitudinal study in the Philippines
Speaker: Alok Bhargava, professor, School of Public Policy, University of Maryland
Chair: Jyotsna Puri, deputy executive director, 3ie
Chief discussant: Vandana Prasad, national convenor, Public Health Resource Network
Subhadra Menon, deputy director—Research (Healthcare), The Kailash Satyarthi Children's Foundation
Date: 24 June 2016, 3.30-5.00 p.m
Venue: Seminar hall 3, Kamladevi complex, India International Centre, New Delhi -110003
Alok Bhargava will show how rigorous econometric and statistical analyses can improve our understanding of the effects of socioeconomic, behavioural and nutritional variables on outcomes such as children's height and weight in developing countries. These outcomes are also important determinants of their cognitive development and adult labour productivity.
This talk will provide insights into the role played by children's sicknesses on their physical development and show that the interval for food policy interventions is considerably longer than the recent emphasis on the 'first 1000 days'. The evidence from a longitudinal data set spanning over 20 years from the Philippines will be useful for the formulation of food policies that emphasise higher intakes of nutrients such as protein and calcium. Importance of reducing children's morbidity burden via environmental interventions and immunisations will also be highlighted.
About the Speaker
Alok Bhargava is a professor at the School of Public Policy, University of Maryland. He holds a degree in mathematics from Delhi University and a PhD in econometrics from the London School of Economics. Bhargava has several publications in top academic journals on various aspects of health and economic development including AIDS, child development, demography, epidemiology, food policy, nutrition, obesity, and population health in developing and developed countries. His research on longitudinal econometric methods and its applications demonstrates the usefulness of rigorous statistical analyses for the formulation of food and health policies.

General Election campaign 2017 – if you're not able to come out to help us speak to voters are you able to help us pay for the leaflets, badges, balloons and posters we need to campaign?
Click here to set up a Direct Debit to West Ham Labour (the direct debit is processed by the national party, but all proceeds go to the CLP).
If you want to donate but prefer not to set up a direct debit, you can contact the Treasurer at email@example.com.
Ultimately everything we do in West Ham Labour party is to get Labour into power – in Westminster, in City Hall and in Newham's Town Hall. Many members give us their time, but campaigning also needs money.
We also run a thriving local party that has monthly meeting with speakers, debates on policy issues and social events for members new and old. We hope you'll join us at something soon.
Your donation will help us carry on being an active party, it might support our young members to attend Labour's Youth Conference, or perhaps ensure our Speakers aren't out of pocket after coming to talk to us – but your donation will mainly be used to work to get Labour elected.
Thank you

Here's an excerpt from an old Freakonomics podcast Can You Be Too Smart for Your Own Good? And Other FREAK-quently Asked Questions.
DUBNER: […]Do you think women are penalized more for being smart or smarter than their peers than men are, and if so, on what dimensions?
LEVITT: Certainly in the marriage market, in the dating market, smart women don't get rewarded in any way like smart men get rewarded. I think we wrote a little bit about it in Freakonomics, didn't we, about the dating? And smart men who had a lot of education did quite well, but women who had a lot of education did poorly.
DUBNER: It was hard to tease out the education for women and the income, because both of them were turnoffs for the other men, right?
LEVITT: If you go back to the 1960s and you look at the marriage rate of highly educated women, it was really low. It was shockingly low. That they were…Of all the people in society least likely to be married, it was women who went and got Ph.D.'s. So I think women really do pay the price for, at least historically have paid the price for being too smart and too successful. Although I think that's…Certainly the data suggests that that's changing. And that's my feeling as well that there's a lot more room for smart women in society today than there was.
So I've always expected this to be true. Many men claim to desire a woman with intelligence but do they really mean that? I mean really? What guy is going to publicly list stupidity as an desirable trait for a companion? The man of my last romantic entanglement clearly stated that he appreciated my intelligence however frowned upon the follow-up questions I'd pose when we conversed. I didn't know there was rule against attempts to gain clarity.
Do smart women really need to dumb it down to date?

Lt. Stanley K. Smiley
Hope you survived Monday.
Have to make this one short and sweet. I had to be taken to the doctor. Somehow, I have managed to strain my lower back. And, I have a massive migraine to boot.
But I wanted to take a moment to mention Lt. Stanley K. Smiley.
Lt. Smiley was either captured or went missing on July 20, 1969 -- ironically the day Neil and Buzz landed on the moon -- in Laos.
I have worn POW/MIA bracelets for years. My last one broke and I bought this one through an organization that gives the profits to veterans' affairs and benefits programs.
If any member of Lt. Smiley's family reads this blog, please call me through my office at (865) 922-4136. I would love to talk to you. I am going to research Lt. Smiley and his story after I convalesce.
This bracelet in microcosm is a memorial for all American POW/MIAs in every war, and is especially for those who didn't make it home.
Labels: Lt. Stanley K. Smiley, POW/MIA, U.S. Navy, Vietnam War

By – Tracey Clayton
Human brain is one of the most powerful organs in our bodies, it controls everything from movement, breathing, speaking and thinking. It works both consciously and subconsciously. The brain never stops learning, but from the age of three to adolescence it absorbs information more easily and quickly. The brain is very similar to muscles, it is a "use it or lose it" organ, so like muscles you have to train it. During this age the brain goes through a lot of changes physically and because of that it is very responsive and receptive at that time. This means that through certain methods parents can influence their child's brain development.
It starts in the womb
If a woman keeps care of herself while pregnant, it increases chances of having a problem free pregnancy and having a healthy baby. Visit a doctor to get screened for underlying conditions that could potentially lead to problems. During pregnancy a woman is eating for two, but she only needs around 300 calories extra a day. Protein rich diet is important but certain care needs to be taken with undercooked meat and eggs, also with seafood which can contain bacteria that might hurt baby's health.
Say no to vices
No alcohol during pregnancy. Even as little as one drink a day can increase your child's chances of having problems with speech, learning abilities and attention span. No illicit drugs, they also enter fetus' bloodstream through you. Studies have shown that using drugs can lead to newborns having restricted growth and developmental problems. Cigarettes and caffeine can also be very harmful for child's health and their consumption should be limited.
The right environment
A child's brain needs to be stimulated to develop properly. It needs to be safe, and it needs to be nurtured and loved. A child should be talked to even during infancy so it starts acquiring language skills early. Childs coos should be responded to with vocalization. Language part of the brain needs input, it is recommended to slowly talk in syllables while talking to infants. Besides acquiring language skills a child's brain will also grow socially and emotionally.
The power of touch
Since babies don't have language skills required to communicate they do that through touch and body language. So it is very important that they receive a daily dose of attention, hugs and kisses not just through infancy but through the entirety of their childhood. Doing this will help the parts of the brain associated with emotions.
Importance of sleep
Sleep is of utmost importance for development of the brain during the life, and even more during the kids' development. Getting at least eight to ten hours of sleep is important for a child, it allows the brain to recharge.
Brain food
For a brain to be healthy it needs to be fed healthy, so it can develop the right way. A diet of foods rich in Omega3's (fish, eggs and nuts) is very important, it will help with acquiring new skills and help with concentration.
Play time
Most of the child's time is spent in playing and having fun. Parents can also use this time to help their kid's brains develop properly. Motor functions can be developed and improved through activities such as playing catch, running and bike riding. While games that include memory, concentration and imagination are best used to improve cognitive functions of the brain.
Learn them to pay attention
Teaching kids to pay attention at class and take notes of what is important is good practice. They can later revise on the lesson. They should be taught to take study breaks, it will keep their brains firing on all cylinders and keep their concentration at a high level, so they won't struggle with writing down those fifth grade physics notes when it comes to it.
Learning skills
Since we learn our whole life it is important to teach a kid how to learn something. Playing memory games with kids can improve their short term and long term memories and develop their learning methods. If those memory games are played with words it can help child's reading and listening skills.
For a child's brain to reach its full potential it needs to be stimulated the right way. It needs to be challenged the right way, and it needs training. Parents can greatly influence that by setting the right environment.
