Let's be real social media gurus, an interesting Instagram bio is crucial to being an expert Instagram-er and can honestly make a difference when it comes to gaining followers! You need funny Instagram bio ideas.
Yes, this is a thing that people actually think about. You only get once chance to describe yourself to potential new followers, might as well tell them a thing or two about yourself in the process.
So what are our ideas? Well, we have broken our best funny Instagram bio ideas into 4 categories, we will show you a few examples of each.
Here are the categories:
- Funny Quotes
- Emojis Say It All
- Clever Sayings
- Straight Facts
Funny Quotes
Everyone likes a good laugh, and in general people like funny people who aren't afraid to poke fun at themselves every now and then. A funny quote used in an Instagram bio is a great way to describe yourself and your personality to followers. FML moments make for hilarious Instagram bios, also check out Pinterest for more suggestions if these ideas appeal to you. Let's take a look at a few examples:
- "I walk around like everything is fine, but deep down inside my shoe, my sock is falling off."
- "Why fall in love when you can fall asleep"
- "Only trust people who like big butts, they cannot lie"
- "You can't make everybody happy, you aren't a jar of Nutella."
- "You say it's Thursday, I say it's Friday-eve"
- "If you fall, I'll be there – Floor"
- "People who don't know me think I'm quiet, people who know me wish I was."
- "Taking naps is so childish, I prefer to call them horizontal life pauses."
- "I followed my heart, it led me to the fridge."
- "Namast'ay in bed"
- "No one's life is as perfect as their Instagram feed."
- "I spend a lot of time opening the refrigerator door looking for answers."
- "You can't photoshop personality."
- "I don't look like this in real life."
- "When life knocks me down, I usually lie there and take a nap."
- "I didn't lose a follower. A follower lost me."
Emojis Say It All
This category is simple: use less words, use pictures (emoji pictures that is). Emojis are the easiest way to describe yourself and tell your followers what you like without actually having to say anything at all. Here are some examples of funny Instagram bio ideas using emojis! Note: we are just going to list the emoji, you will get the point quickly with this one. If you take this route when creating your own Instagram bio, feel free to use twenty emojis or just two, but be unique.
- coffee cup, puppy, airplane, Italian flag – this combination of emojis might tell someone that you are a coffee lover who has a dog, travels a lot and are either Italian or just love Italy.
- strawberry, red high heel, beach, wine glass – this combination of emojis might tell someone that you are a fan of sweet fruits (or as sweet as a strawberry), who is into fashion, loves the beach, and fancies a glass of wine at the end of the day.
- two parents/two kids, glasses, pen and pencil, tennis ball, peace sign, this combination of emojis might tell someone that you are married with two kids, you are a worker bee who spends time writing and playing tennis, but you are relaxed and enjoy life.
Clever Sayings
Utilizing a clever saying in an Instagram bio presents a great opportunity (for those of us who are deeper people) to incorporate a quote from a favorite book, movie, or figure. These are the sayings that you often have to read more than once to understand fully and may challenge a reader to think. If you are looking to generate some mystery and add a bit of a poetic nature to your profile, this method is probably for you. Here are a few examples:
- "It's never too late to be who you might have been."
- "Yesterday I was clever so I wanted to change the world, today I am wise so I am changing myself."
- "I think, therefore I've had my coffee."
- "Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment, until it becomes a memory."
- "It takes nothing to join the crowd, it takes everything to stand alone."
- "Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections."
- "Weak people revenge, strong people forgive, intelligent people ignore."
- "All my life I thought air was free, until I bought a bag of chips."
- "When 'I' is replaced by 'we,' even illness becomes wellness."
- "Bad decisions make for the best stories."
- "Living vicariously through myself."
- "Life is too short. Don't waste it reading my Instagram bio."
- "Trying to elevate small talk to medium talk."
- "Recovering ice cream addict"
Straight Facts
The last category on our list of funny Instagram bio ideas is straight facts, which is basically exactly what it sounds like. A new way that Instagram users are describing themselves is by creating a short list of individual words, often separated by a period. Examples of "straight facts" Instagram bios may look something like this:
- "Reader. Writer. Occasional Exerciser. Tea is everything. Sleep is optional."
- "Avocado everything. Greys Anatomy is life. Cats. Wine wine wine."
- "Three kids. Two dogs. One job. Loving wife and mother trying to keep it all together."
- "NYC. Irish. Blogger. Foodie."
- "Giants fan. Math Nerd. Professional pizza eater."
- "World traveler. Part time baker. Outdoor enthusiast. Alter ego: Olivia Pope."
- "Insert college. Sorority. Etc."
- "Born and raised in Jersey. BEC eater. Beach bum."
- "Gossip Girl & One Tree Hill obsessed. Netflix is my only cardio."
You get the idea, these facts can be short and to the point, tell the people who you are, no one can do that better than you can.
That concludes our list of creative and funny Instagram bio ideas. We hope you are inspired to jazz up your own Instagram bio! Let us know what you think, comment below!

I'm a big fan of AppleScript and am currently utilising it for a range of different tasks on my computer. However, one thing I have noticed is that after I have created an Application in AppleScript, many of the content files including the main.scpt
and the applet.icns
files begin appearing in my "Recents" folder in Finder. This can be rather annoying as it quickly clogs up my recents folder especially if I have been working on a number of different apps.
My question is: how do I make sure that only the application itself can be viewed in the recents folder and not some of its content files as well. If so, how would I do this? Is it possible to do when creating the application itself?

The FPSO will be moored in approximately 110 meters water depth, have a storage capacity of 1.3 million barrels, be capable of processing 100,000 BOPD of heavy oil from the Campos Basin reservoir, generate approximately 60 MW of power, and provide for 150,000 BWPD of seawater treatment and injection.

Milder conditions to help Grampians firefighters
A 110-hectare bushfire in the Grampians National Park in Victoria's west is expected to be brought under control today.
Eighteen firefighters have worked on the blaze throughout the night.
Bulldozers and water bombers have been used to slow the blaze, which started at Plantation Campground, north of Halls Gap.
The blaze burned through around 110 hectares before it hit an area that had already been back-burned, reducing its severity.
Incident controller Phil Timpano says with the milder conditions expected today, the fire should not pose a threat.
"We should be able to mop up the edges and have a good secure line leading into the weekend," he said.
"We did have some fuel-reduced areas south of the burn, so we did have some areas that definitely could help us contain the fire.
"We did have some contingency plans if it did go any further south, but the weather's been good for us for that."

Call the Midwife - A new period drama series appearing on ABC1 is 'Call the Midwife'. It stars such accomplished actors as Jenny Agutter, Miranda Hart, Vanessa Redgrave, Judy Parfitt, Cliff Parisi, and Pam Ferris.
A new period drama series appearing on ABC1 is 'Call the Midwife'. It stars such accomplished actors as Jenny Agutter, Miranda Hart, Vanessa Redgrave, Judy Parfitt, Cliff Parisi, and Pam Ferris. Heidi Thomas is its creator. She based the storyline on Jennifer Worth's memoirs. The setting is 1950's East London. There are six seasons with the first one having premiered on January 15 of 2012 in the UK. It is produced by a production company called 'Neal Street Productions'. This company's founder and owner is a well-known film producer and director 'Sam Mendes' along with executive producers Caro Newling and Pippa Harris. When the series first aired in January of 2012 it was truly an unexpected smash hit and instantly grabbed a wide audience. That brought on a commission for eight more episodes that are scheduled to air early on in 2013 after a preceding 2012 Christmas Special. Call the Midwife's first PBS broadcast in the Fall of 2012 in the U.S. earned it broad critical acclaim as well as an 8.0 Meta-critic score. The first episode opens with Jenny Lee (a newly qualified midwife) making her first appearance at the Nonnatus House. She is under the impression she was sent to some small private hospital and is totally surprised to see she is at a convent. The character of Jenny is then used to introduce us to this new world and all the regular characters involved. We watch through her eyes. We are introduced to the Sisters who are Monica Joan, Bernadette, Evangelina, and Julienne. We also meet her nursing colleagues Cynthia and Trixie along with the upbeat handyman named Fred. Once the initial shock wears off from being at a convent and totally out of her element, Jenny slowly begins to find her way. The anchoring episode focuses on Jenny's first case where she is allowed to handle it herself. The patient was a Mrs. Conchita Warren who was going through her 23rd pregnancy. Conchita's husband is an East-end painter named Len Warren. He is a decorator as well and also did some soldiering during the Spanish Civil War. It was there he found Conchita and brought her home with him after everything calmed down. Conchita cannot speak ANY English (Len states the reason is because she has never had a need to). She spends all her time and long days caring for her family which is huge. Her medical case seems to be merely routine but suddenly a freezing smog engulfs London and she takes a bad turn. Conchita suffers a slip and a fall and begins her labor at only 30 weeks of gestation. She suffers from a severe concussion. Now is when Jenny has to spring into action. She is alone in the house with just Conchita and Len and no medical assistance. She must handle it on her own. She draws upon all her knowledge and skills to help the premature baby arrive safely. The second series kicks off with Jenny Lee (played by Jessica Raine) celebrating her birthday and blowing out her candles. Nurse Chummy (played by Miranda Hart) becomes stressed from all the details that go into making a dish of steamed syrup pudding for the event.

Learn about refugee resettlement in the U.S.
How does refugee resettlement in the U.S. work? What happens when you are a refugee in the USA? Learn about arriving in the USA as a refugee and find information that will help you understand about life in the U.S.
Arriving in the United States
When you first arrive in the U.S., you will probably be greeted at the airport by volunteers from your resettlement agency. They will take you to your new home. The organization that is helping you only has a small amount of money to find you a place to live. So your home might be a small apartment. It might only have a few things in it. American families probably donated household items, such as a bed and table, for your apartment.
You will have to learn how to use the new items in your apartment – for example, your fridge, microwave and washing machine. Your resettlement agency volunteer will show you how.
Your caseworker
After you arrive, you will be assigned to a caseworker. This person will help you adjust to the USA. Your caseworker will probably be very busy helping other families, too. Your caseworker must follow the many rules of refugee resettlement in the U.S. It is important to maintain a good relationship with your caseworker.
You will have to complete a lot of paperwork. This paperwork is required for you to receive money. Depending on what state you live in, you will receive a small amount of money for your family. This might be called Refugee Cash Assistance or it might be called Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. You will probably also receive something called "food stamps" or SNAP. This is to pay for groceries. You can learn more about the benefits you might receive as well as public benefits.
Medical exams
Everyone in your family will have to get medical examinations. This is a requirement for refugee resettlement in the U.S. You probably had a medical exam before you came to the U.S. You and your children may have to get vaccinations to prevent you from getting diseases. You can learn more about healthcare in the USA. If you have a medical problem, you should see a doctor during the first eight months you are in the USA, because you have good medical insurance.

Enrolling your children in school
If you have children, you must enroll them in school. You can read this page on public schools to learn more about US schools. Most states require children ages 5 to 18 to attend school.
You may want, or need, to send younger children to preschool. There are also free programs called HeadStart and early Headstart for children who are too young for school.
Finding a job
Your resettlement agency and case manager will help you get a job. As a refugee, you can start working immediately by showing the entry stamp on your passport. The goal of the US resettlement program is "self-sufficiency." This means the government wants you to get a job as soon as you can. You will probably be required to take the first job you are offered. You might not want to have this job. It is important to remember that you can keep looking for a better job. You can learn more about finding a job or getting a better job.
Getting a Social Security number
You also have to apply for a Social Security number. Your caseworker will probably help you do this. This is a number that shows you can live in the USA. When you work, some of your money is taken out of your paycheck as taxes and some for social security.
Learn how to drive
You will need to learn how to take the bus or how to drive. In the USA, you must pass a test and earn your driver's license in order to drive. You also have to pay for your car, insurance for your car, and the cost of maintenance.
Learn English
It is very important that you focus on learning English. This is probably the most important thing you can do to help your family succeed. Your resettlement agency will probably sign you up for English classes. You can also take English classes online or find classes at other places in your community. It is also important to try to help your kids learn your native language.
Adjust to American culture
During all of this time, you will also be learning to adapt to American culture. You may face culture shock. It is important that you remember your culture is valuable and that you bring lots of assets with you to the United States. You can help teach Americans about your culture.
After one year, get a green card
One year after you have arrived in the U.S., you can apply for permanent residency (a green card). Your caseworker will probably help you apply.
After the first year, you will probably stop seeing your caseworker. But, there are still lots of other organizations and people that can help you in the US. If you need help finding programs in your community, you can search in FindHello to find resources and services near you.
Moving to a new city
Sometimes, refugees decide they do not like the city they were resettled and they want to move to a new city. While there can be benefits to this if you can move closer to family or friends or somewhere with a good job, it can also be very hard. It is important to know that when you move, you have to reapply for your benefits. If you are thinking about moving to a new place, please read this page on moving to a new city before you move.
Finish high school and earn a GED diploma
In your first year after resettlement in America, you may want to finish your education to get a better job, especially if you did not finish high school in your country. We have a free online class to help you earn your high school diploma. You can also learn more about college and other educational opportunities in the USA.
Bring your family to the USA
After resettlement in America, you may decide to apply to bring other family members to the USA. In general, you need to apply to do this within the first two years you come to the USA. Read about family reunification or talk to your caseworker about it.
The information on this page comes from UNHCR and other trusted sources. It is intended for guidance and is updated as often as possible. USAHello does not give legal advice, nor are any of our materials intended to be taken as legal advice. If you are looking for a free or low-cost lawyer or legal help, we can help you find free and low-cost legal services.

A Consultant Ophthalmologist, Dr Olubusayo Adejumo, says application of harmful traditional eye medications contributes to preventable blindness in children.
Adejumo of Marilyn Miller Centre for Child Eye Health, Eleta Eye Institute, stated this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Ibadan.
According to the ophthalmologist, the use of traditional eye medicine and harmful substances is a common practice in the country and has resulted in avoidable blindness from corneal ulceration and consequent scarring.
"In children, we have the treatable and preventable causes of blindness and many of these cases are mostly issues relating to the cornea.
"The cornea is a transparent dome-shaped tissue that forms the front part of your eye. It functions as the window of the eye.
"The problem of low vision and preventable blindness in children can arise from the application of harmful traditional ointments such as kerosene, cassava water, urine, breast milk, sugar water, battery fluid and onion amongst others into the eye," she said.
Adejumo said that the use of these harmful eye medications could lead to infection which destroys the cornea and eventually lead to blindness inspite of ophthalmic intervention.
She said other causes of preventable and treatable blindness in children include corneal scaring, measles, refractive error, childhood cataract and childhood glaucoma.
Adejumo also said: "45 per cent of blind children become blind from avoidable causes. A child's quality of life and neurological development are highly dependent on adequate vision.
"A blind child has nothing less than 50years to contend with. When a child is blind, it affects her social, emotional and psychological set up."
The ophthalmologist said that such children are eventually burdens to their immediate family and the entire community at large.
"There is a need for sustained public enlightenment on the effect of harmful traditional eye medication,'' she said.

I'm over at Black Gate Magazine today, with a movie review.
Silly nonsense that was nonetheless very entertaining. I do not regret the splurge.
Look, this movie isn't great. It's barely good. I'd so so far as to say that it's bad. However, it's precisely because it's bad that it's good. Hear me out.
One of the best things about Mortal Kombat is that it leans heavily on its own silliness. It doesn't shy away from the ridiculousness of the video game premise: that there are multiple realms, and every realm sends forth champions to fight in a high-stakes tournament. As part of the rules, if one realms loses enough times, another realm has permission to annex it. The film opens with Earthrealm (us) on the verge of invasion from Outworld. If we but lose one more tournament, it's over for us.

"End Austin Police Brutality" — a banner displayed at the beginning of Thursday's Austin City Council meeting by groups like Grassroots Leadership, the Austin Justice Coalition and those who believe their families and friends have been victimized by police brutality.
They took a knee during the invocation. "We hope that we've been able to really clarify how take a knee is related to one thing and one thing only and that's racial inequality and police brutality in this country," said Chris Harris with Grassroots Leadership.
Harris says council should reject or make big changes to the city's contract with the Austin Police Association.
"From what we've seen of this contract this new contract that will be coming, it will not address any of the serious transparency, accountability and oversight issues that have plagued it since its beginning," he said. "Right now you have 48 hours as a police officer after a misconduct incident before you have to talk to an internal investigator. You have 48 hours with all the video, all the audio, all the witness statements to get your story straight. You get to talk to your union rep and to your lawyer. In that time if anyone else had that no crimes would be ever be convicted in this country it's absurd."
Harris is hoping they have support on council.
"We think that we do. We think we have some allies. Obviously Council Member Casar took a knee with us today. We're hopeful that's a sign he's with us," Harris said.
Cluren Williams spoke at the rally. His brother Lawrence Parrish is recovering after being shot by police in April. He says it was after a domestic disturbance call. Austin Police say his brother had a gun.
Williams has a more radical idea than some of his peers. "I think the whole department needs to go. They refuse to uphold their actual promises," he said. "This is not a good place because the Austin Police Department made it good. I'm sorry community, this is a good place because we made it good."
We did reach out to the Austin Police Association.
They could not comment on the protest or the contract at the moment.
The city says negotiations are still ongoing but they're nearing an end.
Council may end up voting on the contract in November.

The African humid tropical biome constitutes the second largest rainforest region, significantly impacts global carbon cycling and climate, and has undergone major changes in functioning owing to climate and land-use change over the past century. We assess changes and trends in CO2 fluxes from 1901 to 2010 using nine land surface models forced with common driving data, and depict the inter-model variability as the uncertainty in fluxes. The biome is estimated to be a natural (no disturbance) net carbon sink (−0.02 kg C m−2 yr−1 or −0.04 Pg C yr−1, p < 0.05) with increasing strength fourfold in the second half of the century. The models were in close agreement on net CO2 flux at the beginning of the century (σ1901 = 0.02 kg C m−2 yr−1), but diverged exponentially throughout the century (σ2010 = 0.03 kg C m−2 yr−1). The increasing uncertainty is due to differences in sensitivity to increasing atmospheric CO2, but not increasing water stress, despite a decrease in precipitation and increase in air temperature. However, the largest uncertainties were associated with the most extreme drought events of the century. These results highlight the need to constrain modelled CO2 fluxes with increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations and extreme climatic events, as the uncertainties will only amplify in the next century.

Day 884, One Big Family
The Democrats look like America;
Republicans mostly look like one part.
Our scientists tell us: it's Africa
Where Homo sapiens first got its start.
From Europe and Asia, now Mexico,
And African slaves…..for that no defense,
Migrant ancestors from all continents,
Make up our country, today, long ago.
All races, religions, genders now here.
Mixtures of talents enrich you and me.
But humans are tribal, that much is clear,
Leading to strife within our family tree.
Our ancestors fought and settled this land.
But now it's past time to cooperate.
For, if we do not, we must understand
Democracy might just evaporate.

Spectrum Health's Geriatric Fracture Program Focuses on Quick Assessment and Treatment for Better Results
As the regional referral center for orthopedic trauma, Spectrum Health has developed a Geriatric Fracture Program to provide specialized care for older adult hip fracture patients.
Terrence Endres, MD, clinical advisor, orthopedic trauma, Spectrum Health, is lead physician of the Geriatric Fracture Program. An orthopedic surgeon specializing in trauma and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Endres is a member of Orthopedic Associates of Michigan. He says that after fracturing a hip, patients have better results the sooner they have treatment.
"Up to one half of individuals who sustain a hip fracture will lose one level of independence. The sooner they are up and going, the better their recovery outcomes will be. In order to start down the road of recovery, patients need to be treated and mobilized as soon as possible," said Endres.
For older Americans and those with weak bones, hip fractures sustained from serious falls are a concern. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), a large percentage of fall-related deaths are due to complications following hip fractures. In fact, one out of five hip fracture patients die within a year of their injury.
Research has found that programs, like Spectrum Health's, that use evidence-based protocols and co-management of patients by orthopedic surgeons and hospitalists, reduce complications after surgery. These standardized, patient-centered programs also demonstrate low one-year mortality rates, particularly in patients from nursing facilities.
Endres explains that patients who enter the Geriatric Fracture Program are regularly in surgery within 24 hours of their initial visit with an emergency physician. This helps reduce fracture-related complications.
"We've designed the Geriatric Fracture Program to ensure that patients are being properly assessed and treated," said Dr. Endres. "Our goal is to return patients to their normal functions and mobility in as little time as possible."
Though fractures typically occur in adults, 65 years of age and older, Dr. Endres urges all age levels to take bone health seriously.
"It is not uncommon for hip fractures to occur in people who are in their 40s and 50s," said Endres.
Although individuals age 85 and older are 10 to 15 times more likely to sustain a hip fracture, age is just one factor. Gender, heredity, nutrition, osteoporosis and pre-existing physical impairments also play a role. The CDC reports that women sustain three-quarters of all hip fractures, with white women much more likely to sustain hip fractures than African-American or Asian women.
To prevent falls and injuries sustained in falls, Endres encourages people to strengthen their bodies.
"Injury prevention is one of the many benefits of regular exercise," he said. "It improves mobility and balance, reduces joint and muscle pain, and slows the loss of muscle mass and the rate at which bones weaken."
With most falls occurring in the home, Dr. Endres also advises people to conduct a fall prevention audit of their home. Use the checklist below as a way to help prevent falls at home.
Fall Prevention Checklist
Stairs and Steps
__ Light switches at top and bottom of stairs
__ Good lighting
__ Handrails
__ Clutter-free
__ Non-slip treads or secured carpeting
__ Grab bars
__ Slip-resistant rugs
__ Night lights

2021 Brings Our Biggest Step Into the Fight for Women's Safety
Themba Wahlstrom
Mar 8, 20214 min read
Truecaller's fight against call & SMS harassment continues in 2021. This time, we're doing more than just raising awareness. We're making a change to advance women's safety.
Against Harassment – the statistics
Last year, Truecaller expanded its insights into the scale of harassment women face on their phones. On the one hand, we found alarming statistics that point to the normalisation of harassment in countries like Brazil, Kenya and India. We think call & SMS harassment is a serious issue that often indicates that communities have other issues relating to women's safety. This quantitative research has validated the stories and reports given to Truecaller over the years.
On the other hand, statistics like these, however startling, can seem a bit abstract. That's why we've sought out first hand accounts from women. We believe that telling their stories helps us understand what kind of harassment women actually face, and how that can affect their lives.
This year, we'd like to share stories from countries we haven't yet researched in the previous years of our #ItsNotOk campaign.
True Stories – Indonesia
The against harassment campaign landed in Indonesia this year, where we've hit the ground, interviewing Indonesians about the harassment they face, and how this has affected them.
It is not uncommon for people to avoid answering unknown numbers, especially for fear of spam calls. But to be driven to do so because of inappropriate sexual calls is a different thing. Dianna's story (link to video) allows us to reflect on how one person's entire communication can change because of harassment.
''I kept wondering why are there people who disturb others in the middle of the night with that awful behavior? And why does it have to be me?'' Dianna
For Dianna, picking up the phone is a lottery. After one caller persisted with making sexual noises over the phone, she has changed her communication behaviour, avoiding any number not in her phonebook.
In addition to Dianna's account of harassment, we've interviewed 4 other women in Indonesia this year. Head to Truecaller's youtube channel to hear their stories.
True Stories – Kenya
Last year, we talked to Lucy, a businesswoman plagued by inappropriate calls. She was often bemused by receiving calls from men who professed their love for her, yet had never met her.
Lucy touched upon a problem that we discovered in our research last year. An astonishing 47% of sexual or inappropriate calls in Kenya came from inmates. One particular prison was responsible for most of these calls, led by a culmination of easily accessible phones, free time, and a culture that has to a great extent, normalised the harassment of women.
This year, we're putting billboards, (close to these prisons), to highlight this problem to Kenyans.
True Stories – India
Ever since we started our campaign against harassment years ago, India has responded strongly. To see and hear women speaking up about their experiences has been eye opening, but has also strengthened our resolve to spread the message far and wide. We believe improving women's safety means hearing their voices.
Abhinaya Anand, the speech impaired actress, is the star of this year's video campaign to raise awareness and encourage women to speak up about harassment. We hope that inspring women like her can encourage others to speak up about harassment. That's why we put about billboards earlier this year around Delhi, urging people to say 'It's Not Ok'. And that's also why we're starting #SpeakUp.
We've gone a step further than raising awareness
At the same time as we hear these stories, we must reflect on Truecaller as a communication platform. We've been asked many times in previous years,
That's why we've launched Guardians, a location sharing safety app.
How Guardians Works:
You select your own personal Guardians from your contact list and choose when to stop/start sharing location with your selected Guardians. If you are just sharing your location for a particular trip, Guardians works quietly in the background.
If you don't feel safe or are facing an emergency situation, tap the emergency button to notify all your Guardians about your location and situation. In emergency mode, your Guardians will be notified and will be able to precisely follow your location, reach your location or be able to send help. In normal mode, the app is designed to quietly run in the background and share location intermittently while preserving battery life. Emergency mode will also share your location with community Guardians who may be in the vicinity. Accepting help from the community is your choice.
Looking to the future
Improving women's safety is a long term goal that requires time and a consistent effort. In this way, Truecaller's mission grows every year. But we want to hear your stories – have you experienced call & SMS harassment? What do you think about this campaign? How can we work towards fixing this issue?
Use #ItsNotOK on social media to join the conversation:
Truecaller's Youtube Channel, Instagram, Facebook and Twitter to find out more, hashtag your thoughts with #ItsNotOk, message us, share our Against Harassment campaign. We want to know what YOU think!

We're about to come to blows but I don't mind
I'm unafraid – I'm finding out just how we're made
When you're tired of feeling tired and sick of being sick
Light shines on your door- gotta push up against it-
Gotta get on with it now
C- Gotta use what I got to pull me through
Sway child, this way child, it's okay child, you're gonna get through
No preparation for the chaos no time to pack your bags
Welcome to the next moment, it's the best you've ever had
Here's your new beginning where time can stretch and shrink and sway
Where we rule with no fear and things always go our way
Everybody's lost control but no one really seems to mind
Everybody's complaining but no one has the time
Some think it might be true we pay for everything we do
But I see evil wearing a smile, bruises that stick around awhile
We fight and fight to hold on, to believe that nothings wrong
To turn our backs on our monsters and carry on carry on carry on

Whether you are expecting another child or having twins, it may be the perfect opportunity to upgrade your baby stroller into a more convenient one. Double strollers are great when parents have more than one child to look after. With the number of options to choose from it can become quite difficult to select a double buggy that is easy to use, spacious, and functional.
Doing a bit of research on the best double strollers circling the market is a good idea to make a smart purchase. Among the most popular double buggies is the Sit N Stand Double Stroller. It is a great selection in terms of comfort, durability, and support. Our Baby Trend Sit N Stand Double review aims to thoroughly inform and help parents like you make the best decision.
The Sit N Stand Double Stroller is a great option when needing to upgrade in a stroller or buy one for the first time. It is very sturdy, handy, and well built, lasting buyers a long time. You'll be impressed at how easy it is to steer and operate. This double buggy serves more than one purpose, definitely giving you your money's worth.
Previous buyers have given this stroller raving reviews, claiming to have surpassed their expectations. You are likely to have a positive experience with this buggy, giving you peace of mind as you travel with your children. With the accessible storage units included, you are able to store your belongings avoiding having to carry too much. The seats are also comfortable so that your little ones can nap if needed.
Not only is the Sit N Stand Double Stroller convenient and spacious, it is budget friendly. The product dimensions are 49 x 21.5 x 43 inches and it only weighs 33 pounds. This two seat buggy can even hold two car seats (sold separately). The Sit N Stand Double Stroller is a perfect selection for growing families lasting years with the durable frame that it offers.
- Convenience – above all else this spacious stroller is convenient for parents. Fitting two toddlers or infants into the same stroller makes it easy to keep an eye on both of them.
- Spacious – equipped with a large storage basket at the bottom of the stroller, the Sit N Stand Double Stroller makes it easy to carry essentials like snacks, toys, or personal belongings.
- Lightweight – this double buggy is composed of a steel frame weighing 34 pounds. Some buyers claim it is heavier than expected while others are content with the weight. Keep in mind that each seat can hold up to 40 pounds and children have the option of sitting or standing!
- Sun protection – compared to other double strollers, the two sun canopies provided do a poor job in terms of providing shade. Perhaps in the near future, there will be improvements made.
- Size – this double stroller is larger than most, making it heavier to push around. Because of its large size, it is also more difficult to fit into small vehicles.
The Sit N Stand Double Stroller is accessible, spacious, and lightweight. If parents prefer, they can use car seats that will fit perfectly into the stroller. They are also able to arrange the seats as desired to keep an eye on their children at all times. In addition, the spacious storage basket will allow you to take any personal belongings, leaving your large purse at home.
Just like any other product, there are benefits and downfalls. You need to consider different styles, sizes, and costs. Every stroller is different; taking the time to do a bit of research can benefit you in the long run. After considering the pros and cons provided, you can decide for yourself if this is the stroller you want to invest in or if you prefer to keep looking.
The Verdict
Being a parent is a beautiful, yet overwhelming experience, especially if you are a parent of two toddlers. Strollers make it easy to give them a place to lay while you run daily errands. In this particular stroller, your babies will be able to sit, stand, or sleep soundly.
While the Sit N Stand Double Stroller can't solve all the struggles parents face on a regular basis, it can sure help. It is convenient and perfect when running errands, shopping, or taking a stroll at the park. Offering high end quality, this stroller may just be the one worth giving a try.

Cole Hamels Plans to Spend 2013 Having Things Proven
By Justin Klugh
Cole Hamels had a collection of baseball cliches to report the other day, among them, "We can't take the back seat and hope that we can coast through," and "We really have to go after it from the very beginning."
The Phillies may want to consider the back seat in 2013, as it would put them at a lower risk for bodily injury should the season become the train wreck 2012 was at times.
Hamels also discussed the rest of the league, and how the teams have gotten better, as well as the players themselves. Yes, it is 2013, and we have to contend with hulking, heaving, drugged-up baseball-barians; it's just the nature of the game now. If the Phillies aren't prepared to contend with artificially enhanced bio-players, who can grow bats out of their shoulders or chew the seams out of the balls, then they might as well forfeit the season right now.
"They're not gonna fail," Hamels said of the league's young, now more experienced players.
"I have to stop him, Chooch." "…" Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports
It doesn't take much too assume he's talking about Bryce Harper; images of that fastball hitting Harper in the spine on that fateful day; of Harper's subsequent steal of home; of Mike Rizzo jumping on Urban Dictionary to coin the phrase "fake tough" so his kids would finally, finally think he was cool.
And now, Hamels is realizing the gravity of his mistake: That Harper didn't explode when that ball hit him. That he is a problem that will haunt Hamels for years to come, "not failing" at every turn.
"We just have to fight from the very beginning to the very end," Hamels concluded; his eyes distant, his thoughts even further. He was up against the wall now, cursed to battle the Harper menace until the day he left the game. He'd made his choice, and he would have to live with it.
As Harper's shadow descended on him, Hamels wouldn't go down shrieking like a child and cowering in fear; he would hurl circle change after circle change, hoping that somehow, he'd find the 21-year-old's weak point and watch him explode into a cloud of dust.

Nirav Modi's custody extended by 28 days to October 17
Nirav Modi is wanted in India in connection with the Rs 13,500 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) fraud case.
Trending Photos
New Delhi: A UK court on Thursday extended the custody of absconding fugitive diamantaire Nirav Modi for another 28 days to October 17. Modi appeared via video link from his prison for the routine "call-over" remand hearing.
There has been no discussion over a confirmed date for his trial, though it has been expected that the trial dates may fall between May 11 and May 15 2020.
The 48-year-old businessman, wanted in India, in connection with the Rs 13,500 crore Punjab National Bank (PNB) fraud case, was arrested from Holborn in London on March 19. He has since been lodged at Wandsworth prison in south-west London. India has also initiated an extradition proceeding against him at UK's Westminster Magistrates' Court.
Modi and his uncle Mehul Choksi are being investigated by the Enforcement Directorate and the Central Bureau of Investigation after the PNB alleged that they cheated it of Rs 13,500 crore with the involvement of some bank employees.
Modi also faces charges under the Fugitive Economic Offenders Act. The ED has filed a chargesheet against Choksi in a Prevention of Money Laundering Act Court in Mumbai.
Both fled India before details of the fraud emerged in January 2018.

Getting organized for the new school year is in full swing at our house. For a three and a half year old and a 20 month old (both are going to nursery school) this really only involves buying new clothes for the eldest and some for the youngest and labelling everything! While this is not the full back-to-school prep people of older children go through, there is something we all have in common once school starts and that is answering the question: What do we do with all the artwork?
I don't know about your kids, but mine are mass producers of artwork. When we do art projects at home, the girls go through pages and pages of drawings and paintings before they are finished. Add to that what they bring home from school and we have a major clutter situation. Some of the artwork is easy to throw in the recycling bin but a lot of it is hard to throw out. Over the past few years of receiving art, I have come up with a few solutions:
1. Use art as art is intended: Frame it!
As we have small children and lots of expenses, when we started decorating our house we found that we had a lot of wall space and no money or inclination to purchase expensive 'art'. When I was in Grade 4, my parents framed a pastel drawing I had done and to this day it still hangs on my wall. It's a great keepsake and I am proud that my parents thought it was special enough to frame. When decorating Ainsley's big girl room, I went through the pile of art we had accumulated and picked out three of her drawings and framed those using inexpensive Ikea frames. I love the look of them and Ainsley is very excited every time I remind her that she drew those pictures. I will do the same for Juliet once we have a collection to choose from. What a great way to boost self-esteem by showing them that what they have created is special.
2. Art as a Gift
To take the framing of art one step further, I have given framed pieces to my parents and in-laws. I find it very hard to shop for them as really, what do you get your parents let alone your in-laws? Whether they hang the art on their wall in the office or at home, it's a really nice thoughtful gift that is an Original piece of artwork that is priceless. This is a great way to save the art that you don't want to throw out but at the same time, make room in your house for new art.
3. Art as Fundraiser
This past year at Ainsley's nursery school we did a fabulous fundraiser for the school using the children's paintings. Both girls created a painting and it was sent to Acorn Custom Cards, a company which took the art and made cards and placemats. This was a great idea as it provided a fun art activity for the kids, earned money for the co-op school and parents were able to have cards made that showcased their child's skills and again, the children would get a self-esteem boost by seeing their art used in a new way.
4. Art as wrapping paper and cards
Another great option is to reuse your children's artwork as wrapping paper and as cards. I love getting home made mother's day cards and my girls love making cards for others. This is a great use of artwork that would otherwise be thrown out and save you from buying overpriced cards and wrapping paper!
5. The Art Book
This is something I haven't created yet but have hopes that when the girls get older and start drawing people and animals we can create our own books. I would love to take a bunch of their drawings and work with them to create a story to go along with them. It would be something simple but I love the stories that Ainsley has started telling me about her drawings and think that soon we will be able to start putting them down on paper. What I would do is mount the artwork on scrapbook paper and add the caption below telling the story. To finish off the "art book" we would either insert the scrapbook pages into clear page protectors and put in a scrap book or we could punch holes into the pages and bind with ribbon. I look forward to the opportunity to make our first book by Ainsley.
The other option for this is to not have a story at all and just put together a collection of art and store it in a scrapbook. This is a really nice idea as you could pick a variety of work done over the course of a school year and have a volume for each year.

A Critical Investigation of the Problems with Problem-Based Learning.
Fenwick, Tara J.; Parsons, Jim
This paper is a critique of problem-based learning and focuses on, first, the concept of life as problem-governed and professional practice as problem-solving; and, second, the utility of problem-based learning as a pedagogical approach in pre-professional training. The paper suggests that a problem-based approach to professional education is ontologically narrow and epistemologically inconsistent with the lived nature of professional practice. Problem-based professional practice is seen as supporting the professional role as the rightful epistemic authority, thus perpetuating a class of professional elite who dominate social order and knowledge. The paper also suggests that problem-based practice and problem-based learning presume the possibility of a detached knower, separate from time, place, social position, body, gender, and interpersonal relations and thus the perspectives, intentions, and priorities of the individual are excluded by the pressure for a productive solution. Several questions regarding problem case examples are raised: who produces the cases and what inclusion and exclusion criteria are used; whether pre-framed questions allow student professionals to frame their own experiences; and whether a problem case can authentically represent human experience. (Contains 36 references.) (JLS)

MaxMD, Fort Lee, NJ, announces it is the exclusive provider of ".md" Web addresses and the world's only health care-specific top-level Internet domain. Plastic surgeons, typically the most marketing-oriented of all physicians, are among the largest group of specialists who register .md web addresses, according to the company.
In addition, MaxMD provides medical practices with HIPAA-compliant e-mail encryption services that lets physicians save money in postage, copying, and clerical time. MaxMD offers services to help physicians comply with changes in HIPAA rules resulting from the HITECH act, which includes increased monetary penalties and breach notification requirements.
MaxMD provides the only interoperable encrypted communications platform of its kind, according to the company. It integrates with Outlook, Mozilla, or Blackberry, as well as many modern e-mail systems. It also interoperates with other medical office software, including EMR and practice-management applications. Whereas most other HIPAA-centric encryption solutions use portals—the equivalent of an electronic post office box that requires e-mail to be picked up and dropped off by recipients—MaxMD provides direct "inbox-to-inbox" communications.
MaxMD also enables physicians (or their assistants) to send and receive encrypted e-mail, including encrypted attachments and other data, using a PC, smart phone, or similar device with Internet access. The annual cost of MaxMD for the typical practice is $2.05 per day, the company says, and some practices using MaxMD now use its e-mail features to save hundreds or thousands of dollars per year on postage, copying, and other office expenses, as well as savings in clerical time, collection calls, and other nonmedical, labor-intensive tasks.

Many patients have begun to engage in unhealthy lifestyle choices during the last 12 months.
One of the main byproducts of the COVID-19 pandemic is that many individuals began to engage in unhealthy habits, whether it is eating poorly or smoking or drinking more or failing to exercise.
Unfortunately, a year of bad habits along with being difficult to break could have lasting impacts on a person's overall health, especially their cardiovascular health.
Couple some of the bad habits with a year where many didn't receive annual checkups or physicals or even see a health care specialist at all and there might be some severe cardiovascular ramifications doctors will soon have to deal with.
In an interview with HCPLive®, Christie Ballantyne, MD, chief of Cardiology at Baylor College of Medicine, explained just how damaging the last year of the pandemic may have been and what he suggests are the best solutions moving forward.
Ballantyne said unhealthy lifestyle choices can be especially damaging to not only cholesterol levels, but other aspects of cardiovascular health.
However, there is some hope as many are starting to realize the damage they have done during the unusual year and are reversing some of the decisions in order to promote better cardiovascular health.
Ballantyne also said more patients are beginning to seek checkups with their health care providers.

Abstract - Otolaryngology Online Journal (2022) Volume 11, Issue 12
Risk of thyroid carcinoma in patients treated surgically with assumed benign cytology ®in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Objectives: This study aimed to report thyroid malignancy rate in benign fine-needle aspiration (Bethesda II) at King Abdelaziz Medical City and to evaluate the factors that affect the false-negative outcomes of FNA.
Methods: All patients referred for thyroidectomy from 2009 to 2019 were reviewed (n = 1968). Only patients with a benign FNA, corresponding to the Bethesda II, were included (n = 384). Information on age, gender, body mass index (BMI), serum thyroidstimulating hormone, type of surgery and histopathological outcomes were retrieved.
Results: Of the sample (n=384) with an initial benign FNA, 63 patients had a malignancy on the postoperative pathological examination, yielding an overall false-negative rate of 16.4%. The most frequently reported histopathological type was papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (n=52). For the false-negative group, the mean age was 43.8 years (range 21-70 years) with an 84.1% female predominance. The surgical choice for 74% (n=46) of the cases was total thyroidectomy. Age, gender, thyroid function and BMI did not affect the false-negative rate of benign FNA (p>0.05).
Conclusion: This study indicated a higher risk of malignancy compared to literature related to benign FNA. The risk of malignancy should be considered, even with benign FNA

A new Brian Evenson story, "Anskan House," appears online as an excerpt from the new issue of Redivider.

karl taro—
I just read this. I think it's average for Evenson, who is often so good.
I've read and reread Windeye many times. That story still frightens me.

Agreed on both counts. Windeye is creepy, creeping, cool-as-hell, bangs your nervous system as you envision the sister groping up under the shingles while the brother peppers her with leading questions about the unseen forms at her fingertips. You swing for the fences, sooner or later you're gonna whiff, but Anskan House struck me as low impact all the way around. In Windeye, mystery, inevitability, and a compelling relationship rise out of sharply-rendered events, whereas here you have the little brother eavesdropping while the sister tells an older brother an on-the-nose, hearsay account of the house's exact potency. Anyone who gripes that "show don't tell" is a tired cliche might consider reading these two stories back-to-back.
