It's hard to know what to say to someone who says that "all torture is indefensible". Or, rather, you don't know where to begin.
The same is true for this position as it's put by Julian Baggini:
"The first [strategy] is to insist that the torture is in principle wrong. Even if it would save thousands of lives, there are some moral lines that cannot be crossed."
All you can ask is: Why is torture wrong... "in principle"?
Could it be that many people adopt this position without advancing arguments to defend it? And, in certain respects, that's understandable.*
Torture Saves Lives
If it's deemed to be an almost factual matter (even if only factual in theory, as it were) that if X is tortured he will tell you where the bomb is and thus many lives will be saved, then torturing that person seems preferable to allowing many innocent people to die. Especially since those deaths can be averted.
This is even more the case if the person being tortured is guilty in some way: say, if he's a terrorist who's already killed many innocent people.
We must now ask a simple question:
Why is wrong to torture this one individual if such a thing will save many lives?
Of course it is sometimes argued that torture is ineffective. (Actually, that's not true – it's sometimes ineffective.) We can also say that the victim of torture may be innocent and so on. However, these possibilities are being discounted here. The issue is about torturing a person who is known to be guilty; or who's known to have knowledge of the bomb's whereabouts.
(In any case, arguing about the efficacy of torture can be seen as a practical position; not necessarily a moral or philosophical one.)
So, again, let's say that he is guilty and that the torture will result in lives being saved. After all, let's remember that some acts of torture have indeed saved lives in cases like this. Torture sometimes works.
However, even if torture works (however that's cashed out), it may still be deemed to be wrong.
That Slippery Slope Again
People who are against torture may say that torture will "inevitably go on" on a wider scale if it were legalised. However, that can happen even if it's proscribed. Indeed that's obviously happened on many occasions. (This discounts the reality of torture being "officially denied"yet practised by various authorities or governments.)
It could even be argued that official torture (as it were) will set limits on when and why torture is acceptable; whereas as if it's deemed unacceptable in all cases, it may encourage various authorities to use it willy-nilly. After all, there's a monumental difference between torturing someone in order to save hundreds of lives and torturing someone to gain state secrets. (Or even torturing a petty criminal in order to get him to tell you what another petty criminal is planning.)
This may lead one to the conclusion that when torture can be shown to save many lives, it should be allowed. Though when it's used for petty or insignificant political reasons, it shouldn't. (Of course arguments will be advanced as to how these distinctions can be quantified.) And, again, if torture is rejected (at least officially) out of hand, then these distinctions become irrelevant because all acts of torture are as bad as each other!
Incidentally, it can never be said that legalised torture will "inevitably lead" to anything specific. It depends. And the total prohibition of torture may lead to more gratuitous torture, not less.
Moral Self-Indulgence
The case of what Julian Baggini calls "moral self-indulgence" is also interesting – especially in the case of torture.
Although Baggini doesn't say this, it also appears to be similar – or the same – as moral grandstanding.
To put that simply: it's not important to the self-indulgent moralist whether or not lives are saved, or even what the arguments are on both sides of the debate. What's important to the moral grandstander is to take a strong or absolute moral stance on the matter. Or, in some cases, what matters is how such a person is seen by others or how he sees himself.
Let's not forget here that moral absolutes have also been the domain of the intolerant and dangerous. And that can just as much apply to those who take an absolute position on torture (or on another "human rights" issue) as it can apply to those who take an absolute position on abortion or blasphemy.
And the bottom line (as stressed by Baggini) is that "the charge of indifference to the lives of those left to die as a result is hard to shake". In other words, one's moral scruples or absolutes (depending on how you look at it) are going to result in many deaths– at least on the scenarios outlined above.
Political Selectivity on Torture
From a purely political perspective, many Leftists only protest against torture when it's carried out by "capitalist states" (such as the US and UK). They virtually never protest about torture in Iran, Pakistan, Cuba, Venezuela, etc. And, similarly, many Leftists (or at least communists) rarely – if ever - protested against torture when it was carried out by the many communist states which existed in the 20th century.
Similarly, many conservatives or right-wingers only protest against torture when it is carried out by communist or Muslim states. They virtually never protest about torture when carried out by regimes they are ideologically or politically happy with (specifically their own countries).
In other words, one's prior politics is determining which acts of torture - or which regimes - one speaks out against.
To add to the political nature of this debate, it can also be said that once you've established an argument that successfully puts the case for torture (if any argument can ever be entirely successful on this - or on any - subject), then the same argument or defence can – or could - be used by literally anyone.
What I mean by that is once you've argued for your own favoured state (or favoured government or institution) using torture, then states (or governments or institutions) you don't politically favour can use exactly the same argument/s in their own defence when they too use torture.
*)To play the devil's advocate: there are examples of psychological and physical pressure which even some – or many - human rights activists would happily engage in. For example, when you shout in a racist's ear-hole. Or when you deny someone food for 24 hours. Or indeed even when you deny someone a single meal.
All three can be deemed to be torture. Mild - or even very mild – torture, sure ; though still torture.

John Molloy, Welling, London, September 2012
John was hit by a car driver who turned right across his path whilst travelling in the opposite direction. John was thrown over his bicycle's handlebars and landed on his shoulder.
John's collar bone was broken, scaphoid bone in wrist was damaged and shoulder blade was bruised. John now has constant problems with his wrist and had to have a metal plate inserted in his shoulder. He can no longer cycle and has to have on-going physiotherapy on his wrist.
The police did not collect witness details and therefore could not follow up those witnesses to collect statements. The police decided to take no further action because there was not sufficient evidence for a prosecution. The police have failed to produce the incident report despite John's solicitor requesting and paying for it.

Tully Dumped And Big Brother Contestants Contact Outside World
Tully's ex-girlfriend, Tahlia Farrant, has ruled out getting back with Tully but did reveal to the Sunday Telegraph that they had had a civilised conversation.
Tahlia also revealed she had knocked back offers to talk to the weekly gossip magazines as she is a private person, but she is talking to Sunday Telegraph for free! She should have taken the cash hooked up with a hottie and taken her on a holiday to Bali, now that would have been sweet revenge.
The article also states Tully was on a media ban last week by NINE, though she has been active on Twitter. It does make you wonder if the rumour of her going back in the house is true. Somehow I doubt it as she now knows how everyone is being portrayed and it would definitely be unfair to all the other eliminated contestants.
However next year they should consider giving the public the power to vote one of the evicted housemates back into the house.
This year for the first time the contestant's were able to write a message to the outside world and it was printed in the Sunday Telegraph. Ed used his message to have a swipe at Tim.
He wrote:
My best moment in the Big Brother House was the Mandate (boy band) experience. This was completely out of my comfort zone and something I would never do in my normal life. My worst would have to be losing the last four or five Housemates in particular. They were all close friends of mine and I was looking forward to sharing this experience with them all as long as possible.
Tim — manipulator and creator of havoc. He is playing a game in here based on emotional bullying and using tactics that are nasty and upsetting to others. Can't be trusted.
Drew — funny, likable guy. Had a very 'questionable' relationship with Tully which I think he may regret when he leaves the House.
Ben — genuine, honest person. Has triumphed over many obstacles in life to be here. Would be the front runner to win Big Brother.
Sisters — cute, adorable, sweet, funny girls who have a love for family like no other. True sweethearts who look for the best in people.
Mikkayla — strong, intelligent, brave women who has overcome a lot in her life. Can come across as bossy at times.
Tahan — funny, brutally honest girl who gets herself into trouble sometimes. She is very intelligent but lets people think she not.
Jade — intriguing, beautiful, well-travelled girl who is very grounded and knows what she wants in life.
Drew writes that the worst moment in the house was when Tully was evicted. Ben writes that he has been forced to confront and challenge my predisposition to suffering with anxiety and depression in a very public forum.
Tim writes that he is there to play the game and is not to fly under the radar.

Hey Gabby i just checked out Birkenstock shoes. They do look oh so comfy. Layla from last year had the worst shoes ever.
- 2 Gabby { 09.30.13 at 10:04 pm }
Sandii they are comfy and I have worn nothing else for years. I remember Layla toppling along in her wedges last year.
Must admit this years housemates are offering so much more for us to rabbit on about.
- 3 daisy { 09.30.13 at 10:08 pm }
Try Naot shoes. Fabulously orthotic and comfy but without sacrificing fashion. No nanna shoes. From Israel.
- 4 Sandii { 09.30.13 at 10:15 pm }
Daisy, they are quite pretty. Definitely not too nanna-ish.
- 5 daisy { 09.30.13 at 10:24 pm }
I am going for the malta brown boots next.
- 6 Sandii { 09.30.13 at 10:27 pm }
I have been trying to think who the new intruder Maddie reminds me of and I think I have finally thought of it. She really reminds me of Angie in last years season. Obviously Angie has bleached blond hair but the face and mannerisms are quite similar
- 7 Miss Mars { 09.30.13 at 10:32 pm }
I'm 25 and a bit shoe obsessed, I'm only 5'1 so I live in heels, they are however all very pretty (in my opinion) :p.
I see on the live feeds that Tahan and Tim are already making plans to 'set up' Maddie and Ed, and they've speculated he'll hook up with her as 'she's his type'. Somehow I doubt we'll see that happen, Ed may be thick but I think even he would realise how bad that would make him look. He's kind of been a bit more 'into' Jade of late anyway, wonder what that's about…
Really keen to see what Boog brings, Maddie is just too much of a stunt cast for me. I'm yet to hear that Boog has a modelling/acting/music/other entertainment background, so that automatically puts her ahead in my books.
- 8 Sandii { 09.30.13 at 10:39 pm }
MM my daughter is around your age and is also shoe obsessed. I love sky high heels ( although I don't wear them anymore) but I am not convinced about shoes like the ones that Boog wore tonight.
I think you are right about Ed. He isn't that dumb to think the public would embrace him if he did the dirty on his faux gf Jade. Agree with you about Boog, it is refreshing that she isn't a model/actor
- 9 daisy { 09.30.13 at 10:45 pm }
There are quite a few teeny tiny girls on this blog. Nice ones too.
So you reckon this Boog is nice. Hideous name.
What do bbhm, Carol and BDD think?
- 10 Scuba { 09.30.13 at 10:47 pm }
@57 and @58
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news:
- 11 daisy { 09.30.13 at 10:49 pm }
BTW to whom it may concern; no hotmail atm.
And we got free upgrade to beachfront suite without even asking. It was vacant
- 12 Sandii { 09.30.13 at 10:50 pm }
Scuba… I am disappointed, that's bullshit.
- 13 Bbhm { 09.30.13 at 10:52 pm }
Yeah liking boog, still deserving my judgement on maddy .
I couldnt stop staring at her teeth, I know that's superficial, but I can't get past it.
So want maddy and ed to get together.
- 14 Lizzie { 09.30.13 at 11:11 pm }
Scuba and Sandii – damn, another wannabe. Like Bbhm I'll reserve judgment for a while.
Miss Mars you're an inch taller than me! And no, I didn't like her wedges – like strapping bricks to your feet!
- 15 Deano { 09.30.13 at 11:26 pm }
I think Mr. Clooney is the most genuine.. But seriously. Everyone thinks they're genuine. That task was aimed at creating conflict..
- 16 Deano { 09.30.13 at 11:34 pm }
Justynn was evicted in broad daylight. By Drew. And he didn't appear on stage live. Mikkayla commented (live) that Justynn was only there 3 days. Reeks of a conspiracy theory.
- 17 Evan { 09.30.13 at 11:42 pm }
A nice attempt by Channel 9 & Big Brother to sugarcoat Justynn's demise, but there were enough clues tonight(especially from Mikayla, Ed & Ben) to confirm to me that something untoward involving Justynn insulting other housemates DID occur on Friday.
That goodbye message to the housemates looked far too rehearsed, as if Justynn was reading off a script.
Anyway, he has gone – that is the main thing.
Happy for Nathan, although I doubt that he will pose any threat to the people we consider as favourites to win this year.
As for the 2 new ladies, I am kinda liking Madalaine more than Boog right now, but that is based on a very initial first impression.
Tim and Tahan are turning into a rather nasty twosome, Tahan especially. Looks like Jade will be the victim of their scheming to create some romance between Ed and Maddie, and also Tim was trying to stop Ben making friends with the new girl.
- 18 Deano { 09.30.13 at 11:50 pm }
Looks like Boog / Alex Roe is another actor.
- 19 Deano { 09.30.13 at 11:57 pm }
Big Brother are really going after the average Aussie.. Not.
Madaline Cogar is a lawyer who represents Dreamworld…
- 20 Eliza { 10.01.13 at 12:05 am }
Miss Mars, welcome to the short but sweet club. High five for 5'1, you can join myself and Andrea. I feel tall standing next to Lizzie 😉 hehe
I am same age as you (although I just turned 26 wahh) and I love to collect pretty heels to look at them but hate wearing them! When I was in my late teens/early twenties my friends and I used to go out in sandals and it was the best!
Good job, Daisy on your upgrade.. Hope you're having a great time!
Sorry didn't watch BB tonight so can't comment on that! Although, this Maddie girl doesn't look overly attractive. I read comments with people saying she has a man body which I thought was a bit harsh.
- 21 daisy { 10.01.13 at 12:12 am }
Eliza, I have a man's body.
It's lying beside me, asleep and snoring.
And yes. Check the Taaras, Redang.
- 22 Bbhm { 10.01.13 at 1:01 am }
Evan #67
If ed and jades feelings are genuine , no amount of scheming would separate them. And I didn't find Tim or Tahan nasty, just verbalizing what everyone is thinking. They all know that Ed isnt that into Jade, so having an attractive girl in the house would create conflict, as all the girls seem to prefer ed and think he is hot. So that is the obvious scenario and since Jade is so aggressively possessive of him, it will definitely create conflict.
- 23 Calorie Loader { 10.01.13 at 1:57 am }
Thanks Scuba, at least we know where BB is getting all the intruders from now-another one from the StarNow pool!! I'm pretty sure Booga said tonight she was 157cm and on profile it says 162cm. There can always be discrepancies from one measurement to another but 5cm!!!
Daisy, no speculation needed this time, this one's actually from NIDA!! P.S. Nice one on the upgrade, we were all getting a bit crammed in your other room:)
Not sure about the intruders yet, but was that Ed who said 'HE-LLO' like he liked what he saw when Maddie walked in. He wasn't holding back.
Favourite moments tonight were both in the spa:
1) When Ed fell out!! Classic, had to keep the noise down!
2)Nathan saying how he naturally gravitates towards sugar sisters, etc how nice they are blah blah and Tahan and Ben looking so disinterested and in disagreement.
Was surprised Jade looked so unhappy to see Boog but not Maddie, maybe she finally got her game face one once she realised another female was coming in. Maybe it's dawned on all of them how much more game play is still to come.
Yeah the 'Genuine' line up was ROFL-worthy. Ed at the top of the pack and Tahan at the bottom…wow, and also wow to Ed never moving in general from that top spot no matter what the category.
- 24 Calorie Loader { 10.01.13 at 2:32 am }
Unless of course it was an unfavourable attribute such as annoying where he quickly hopped down to the least end,nice one.
Also in previous comment that should have read cramped.
- 25 Andrea { 10.01.13 at 7:00 am }
Scuba @60, thanks for that, its like they try to hide things from us.
Bad luck ALEX, ( why not use that nice name instead of Boog? Its hideous ) you have let me down already, same with the Dreamworld lawyer.
What is the point of "real people even auditioning?
Deano @68@69, I agree with you too.
- 26 daisy { 10.01.13 at 7:31 am }
Don't give me that Calorie Loader. You didn't even come home last night after the beach party.
- 27 daisy { 10.01.13 at 7:35 am }
Andrea' it sucks doesn't it, that they are using actors, models and djs but encouraging the public to audition.
- 28 Sandii { 10.01.13 at 7:52 am }
I heard her say that her dad gave her the nickname when she was a tiny baby and the name stuck. Like she said it sounds weird when you first hear it but you get used to it. Knowing it is a nickname not a real name does make it better. I have a friend who is known as Snow and have been friends with the family for years and only recently found out his real name.
- 29 Andrea { 10.01.13 at 7:52 am }
Well hopefully the public will wise up and not waste their time lining up all day!
- 30 daisy { 10.01.13 at 8:15 am }
Snow is fine. But Boog. No way.
Other nicknames I wouldn't want : snotty, booger, pooh or fart.
- 31 simone { 10.01.13 at 9:20 am }
Bloody Justynnnnn letting that dog maul his hands like it's some kind of game. That is just shocking dogmanship. Dogs play like that with other dogs, not with people. If he thought he was good with dogs, he was dead wrong. He deserved to be evicted purely for that.
- 32 simone { 10.01.13 at 9:22 am }
Andrea @36, refusing to allow a dog to jump on you doesn't mean you don't like dogs, it means you don't want muddy paws and sharp claws shoved disrespectfully upon your person. Anyone who lets a dog leap up on them should remember that the same dog will then go ahead and jump up on small children, little old ladies, and people who are genuinely frightened of dogs, and that's unacceptable. Very poor handling. Boog was quite right to disallow it.
- 33 Andrea { 10.01.13 at 9:24 am }
Fair enough Simone, I understand.
- 34 Calorie Loader { 10.01.13 at 12:43 pm }
Just did a Ben snort Daisy@76…comes forward in a submissive position, tail between legs-looks like I've got some splaining to do:-P
- 35 Calorie Loader { 10.01.13 at 12:48 pm }
Daisy@80..so looks like most of the hm's are covered with those names:) Boog at least is good natured about the host of other names she gets called when revealing that nickname. Tim was in heaven when he heard, quickly making picking motions at his nose and then requesting if he could call her a bunch of related names. On showing her around the house, he comically said, 'here's your bed boo-ga'-Drew bursting into fits of laughter in background ( I think Drew is beginning to recover from being captured and starting to show signs of life jumping back into prank planning with Tim).

Give Me 10 Minutes, I'll Give You The Truth About Vitamin B12 Deficiency
Even though it is one of the most overlooked vitamins in the world, B12 is also one of the most essential vitamins for our body. This vitamin is very important for the metabolism of each of our body cells.
You may start to experience long-term diseases and neurological conditions if you have insufficient amounts of B12 for a longer period of time.
--- advertisement ---
In order to treat it on time and prevent numerous health problems you have to get informed about the first warning signs of vitamin B12 deficiency.
You definitely need to know more about the first signs of vitamin B12 deficiency and why it is so important to your overall health. We also provided you with a list of foods that contain the highest amounts of vitamin B12.
7 Warning Signs of Vitamin B12 Deficiency
- Dizziness
Frequent bouts of vertigo and light headedness (dizziness) are some of the first warning signs of vitamin B12 deficiency. You might experience dizziness when walking upstairs or downstairs, or wobble when standing up too fast from a chair.
Even though you may think that this is normal, these situations can sometimes be very dangerous. It is best to consult your doctor in order to receive the proper treatment for vitamin deficiency if you experience symptoms of chronic vertigo.
- Forgetfulness
If you have hard time remembering ordinary things like where you left your keys or what's the name of your friend we have some bad news for you. This type of uncharacteristic forgetfulness does not indicate early dementia.
On the other hand, this indicates that you experience a vitamin B12 deficiency. When older people have a vitamin B12 deficiency they think that they have Alzheimer's or dementia. If you want to be sure about the problem do a simple blood test. You will be able to improve your memory with a supplemental regimen.
- Muscle Weakness
Your muscles may be deprived of the proper amount of oxygen from erythrocytes if they feel weak. You know that you have a problem when your grocery bags feel like they weight thousand pounds.
Uncharacteristic muscle weakness and sluggishness can be caused by the improper oxygenation to muscle cells and vitamin B12 deficiency. If you are no longer able to carry your gym bag or heavy purse, you will have to include foods that are rich in vitamin B12 in your diet.
- Pale Skin
If you are pale with a yellow cast but you used to have those rosy cheeks that revealed your perfect health, you may experience vitamin B12 deficiency. This means that you lack of erythrocytes. As a result your body starts producing more bilirubin which replaces that rosy complexion with a pale visage.
- Pins and Needles
Paraesthesia or pins and needles is caused by the insufficient amounts of vitamin B12. Because of the nerve damage caused by the lack of vitamin B12 you will have a feeling of electric shock waves.
You will also start experiencing tingling, prickling or a numbing sensation throughout the body, especially in the hands and feet.
You will experience reduced production of erythrocytes which in turn results in low oxygen levels in the nerve tissues. This indicates that you are deficient in this vitamin.
- Unexplained Fatigue
If you still have that constant fatigue but you are regularly getting a good night of sleep, you may have a vitamin B12 deficiency. The reduced production of erythrocytes in your body can cause this unexplained fatigue. This happens because insufficient amounts of oxygen are transported to your organs.
- Eye Problems
Your vision may be damaged or you may experience vision changes if you have a vitamin B12 deficiency. Although these are rare cases, you may experience an optic neuropathy due to the lack of this vitamin.
When you have a damaged optic nerve you may experience reduced central vision, blurred or double vision, light sensitivity, shadows or tracers. However, do not worry too much because supplements can help you restore your vision.
Health Benefits of Vitamin B12
Here are some of the most significant health benefits so you can better understand the importance of this vitamin:
- Prevents Heart Disease and Stroke
Nowadays, the leading cause of death in the United States is heart disease. You need to be careful and do everything you can in order to protect the health of your heart.
According to some new research, increased levels of homocysteine can cause a higher risk factor for heart disease than cholesterol.
If there is a lack of vitamin B12, this non-protein amino acid can create inflammation. However, if you have a sufficient amount of this extremely essential vitamin, you are going to reduce the chances of getting heart disease or experiencing stoke.
- Prevents Nerve Damage
Myelin sheath is a fatty white substance that surrounds the axon of some nerve cells. Myelin has the function to protect the nerves from toxins and free radical damage.
You will experience nerve related disorders if the myelin does not protect the nerves. If you have damaged nerves, they will interrupt the transmission of signals to and from the brain.
- Supports Energy
Since the vitamin B12 stimulates the production of energy, you will be able to keep your cells healthy and strong. If you have a vitamin B12 deficiency, you will starve your cells. This is going to make you feel weak and tired.
In order to convert carbs into usable glucose, the metabolism needs the vitamin B12. It is important to mention that glucose is an extremely essential participant in the production of energy. You will have increased risk of suffering from fatigue if you have a vitamin B12 deficiency.
- Helps Digestion
If you want to help the process of breaking down of foods in the stomach and support a healthy metabolism, you will have to include foods that are rich in vitamin B12 in your diet since it aids in the production of digestive enzymes.
Besides removing the harmful bacteria in the digestive tract, this vitamin will also help you foster healthy gut bacteria. If you do not have a vitamin B12 deficiency, you will be able to prevent candida, inflammatory bowel disease and other digestive related issues.
- Helps Produce Erythrocytes and Prevents Anemia
Vitamin B12 is able to prevent megaloblastic anemia, which is manifested by weakness and chronic fatigue, since it helps the production of erythrocytes.
- Protects the Bones
As we mentioned before, vitamin B12 is able to reduce the levels of homocysteine. People who suffer from bone conditions have higher levels of homocysteine than people with healthy bones. That is the main reason why vitamin B12 is recommended to those people who suffer from osteoporosis or another bone related disorder.
Natural Sources of Vitamin B12
The following foods are a rich and natural source of this extremely beneficial vitamin:
Beef and chicken liver – 81 milligrams in 3 ounces
Salmon – 19.5 milligrams in 108 grams (1 filet)
Herring – 18.7 milligrams in 143 grams (1 filet)
Mackerel – 15.3 milligrams in 3 ounces
Sardines – 13.3 milligrams in 1 cup
Tuna — 9.3 milligrams in 3 ounces
Trout – 9.1 milligrams in 1 filet
Organic yogurt – 1.3 mg in 1 container of plain Greek yogurt
Turkey – 1.1 milligrams in 3 ounces
Raw milk – 1 milligram in 1 cup
Beef tenderloin – 0.9 milligrams in 3 ounces
Lamb – 0.8 milligrams in 3 ounces
Cereals, cheese, nutritional yeasts, plant-based milk (soymilk, almond milk and coconut milk) are some other non-vegan sources of the vitamin B12.
It is important to notice the early signs of vitamin B12 deficiency. If you want to protect your overall health, you will have to treat it as soon as possible. Various health problems and diseases can be prevented if your body has the sufficient amount of vitamin B12.

The majestic cheetah, known for being the world's fastest land animal with speeds up to 75 mph, is now Africa's most endangered cat. A new study led by the Zoological Society of London, the Wildlife Conservation Society, and Panthera has revealed that only 7,100 cheetahs remain in the wild. While Cheetahs once ranged across almost the entire African continent and into Asia, today, cheetahs are found in only 9% of their historic range. Zimbabwe alone lost 85% of its cheetahs in a mere 16 years.
With your help, we can ensure the population does not go extinct entirely. While reclassification of cheetahs from "threatened" to "endangered" on the IUCN endangered species list is one step, a whole new approach to conservation is necessary. This means addressing the three biggest threats to cheetahs:
- Habitat loss: 77% of cheetah habitat is unprotected today
- Human conflict: farmers often kill cheetahs in retaliation for eating their livestock, increasingly common as their natural prey base decreases
- Illegal wildlife trade: 85% of cubs captured by poachers to sell as exotic pets die after being stolen from their mothers.
We urgently need YOUR help. Your donation will go to GreaterGood.org to protect cheetah habitat, work with ranchers, and put a stop to the illegal wildlife trade.
About Project Peril:
Project Peril is a new program of GreaterGood.org to protect the world's most threatened species. Whether tall like a giraffe or small like a bee, all life deserves a fighting chance in a world increasingly threatened by human influences. Project Peril identifies these key species on the brink of extinction and helps fund groups doing the best work to save these species around the world.

Jay-Z to Score The Great Gatsby
Jay-Z continues to get his grown man on. The hip-hop impresario known for crafting albums like The Blueprint 3 and The Black Album will try his hand at scoring a film. That's all less surprising than the film itself: Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's Jazz Age classic The Great Gatsby, Collider reports. It makes sense when you think about it, though, who better to relate to the excess of Gatsby's life than a guy who's been living the good life since he blew up in the mid-'90s with Reasonable Doubt?
The move by Lurhmann doesn't come as a complete surprise for a couple of reasons: First off, Jay-Z's collaboration with Kanye West "No Church in the Wild" played over the film's first trailer. Second, the director's known for playing around with different kinds of music in his period piece films, just check out any number from Moulin Rouge! for proof.
This isn't Jay's first foray into film-based music. He actually created an entire concept album after seeing Ridley Scott's American Gangster. It's not the movie's official soundtrack, but it is heavily associated with the film and takes cues from its plot.
The Great Gatsby stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire, Isla Fisher and Gemma Ward. The film premieres May 10.

Don't know why but these guys refuse to lower their gas prices. While rest of county has below $3.00 a gallon they are still at $3.69. Have not moved it in weeks. On the other hand they do smog...
Never thought I'd take the time to review a smog station but this guy deserves it. Very thorough and up-front, honest. I'm a car-guy myself (but I did not tell him) and knew everything he was...

Sugar and Spice Sweet Potatoes
Oh. My. Goodness.
Say hello to my newest favorite potatoes.
The spices on these sweet potatoes are so awesome and can be used in so many ways to liven up these beautiful, orange delights.
This is what I did:
1. Combine well the following ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon course ground pepper
2. Boil the sweet potatoes until soft, take off the skins, and then cut them into 3rds or 4ths.
3. Smash them with a potato smasher and and then brush them with melted butter.
4. Sprinkle them with 1/2 of the seasoning.
5. Roast them, or fry them up in a pan with butter or olive oil. Turn them over and sprinkle with the remaining seasoning. Make sure you get a yummy, golden crust on the potato. It's the best part! Serve with fresh cilantro on top.
It is over the top delicious!
The seasoning would be great mixed in with just a regular baked sweet potato with butter.
This recipe was adapted by Melody of Cheat Day Cafe from DLYN. Photos and recipe courtesy Melody. Thanks for sharing!

I couldn't leave a comment on your other blog, so this is where I found I could. It has nothing to do with food, sorry.
I stumbled onto your blog about 8 months ago and have been reading all about your journey thus far. Your bravery and courage have inspired me and I thought you should know that today.
When I am feeling very sad and down, I turn to scripture, to the Bible. This particular passage has always brought me comfort. Even if my suffering is overwhelming, I know that God has promised my comfort will be an equal amount. I am praying for you today, that God will provide all comfort you need in the midst of suffering. Has He given us life? Absolutely and we should be grateful. But to be frustrated with situations that feel like intense suffering, well, that's ok too. Our God is big enough to handle it. He is good and worthy. I'm praying this day is better than yesterday and that you feel God's presence undeniably real. ~Allison
2 Corinthians 1:3-7
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For just as the sufferings of Christ are ours in abundance, so also our comfort is abundant through Christ. But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; or if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which is effective in the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer; and our hope for you is firmly grounded, knowing that as you are sharers of our sufferings, so also you are sharers of our comfort.

Lei Of Aloha Short Tube Top
You can almost feel the balmy moisture of a nearby forest wearing this monstera, ti and fern garlanded tubetop dress.
Foliage prints are less extravagantly designed, yet no less expertly executed than floral prints. They are often more acceptible to semiformal use by mainlanders.
Drapes a full 26 inches long, elastic top with no back zipper needed. One size fits all. Made in Hawaii of 100% cotton.
Black Lei Of Aloha Short Tube Top... $50.00
"Another Fine Genius Goods Store"
Leis made of leaves are called 'maile leis' and are usually made from the green ti leaf. These leis symbolize appreciation, admiration, and respect. Leaf leis are often used as gifts for graduations, weddings, anniversaries, and even memorials.
Short tube top dresses are also known as cocktail or sports dresses and generally fall to the hip, ending just below the fanny. And while the straps provide some adjustment in fit, different body sizes of shorter or larger people will have minor differences in bottom hem length. Short tube top dresses are ideal for hot weather summer fashions and are easily accessorized.
NOTE: Colors vary slightly between one computer screen and another. There may be minor differences in coloration between what you see on your computer and the top you receive in the mail. Mahalo!


text: Liverpool set to back £28m rebuild scheme Published: 15 May 2014 Comment on this article The £28 million construction of new buildings for three Liverpool schools is set to be approved as part of the city's on-going Building Schools for the Future (BSF) rescue programme. The £28 million construction of new buildings for three Liverpool schools is set to be approved as part of the city's on-going Building Schools for the Future (BSF) rescue programme. The city raised a total of £169 million via government funding and money from the city council after being badly affected by the cuts to the BSF programme in 2010. The first school to be built under the programme, Notre Dame Catholic College, opened its £15 million new building in Everton in September. Now three more building projects are expected to be approved at a meeting of Liverpool City Council's Cabinet tomorrow (Friday, May 16). The plans detail a new home for the Archbishop Blanch CE High School at a cost of £17.5 million. Also included are new developments for Northway Primary School in Childwall and New Park Primary School in Kensington, costing £5.5 million each. Archbishop Blanch will move from its old and outdated building near the city centre to a new purpose-built site. A Liverpool City Council statement said: "The site has been earmarked because it is in close proximity to the existing school and has good transport links. It will educate 900 girls aged 11 to 16 and have a mixed 6th form." Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson said: "This is a much-needed investment in three schools which desperately need it and is part of my commitment to deliver at least 12 new schools for pupils in the city. "The new buildings will be a tremendous boost for thousands of present and future generations of school children and ensure they get the most out of their learning. We are working with construction firms to make sure as much of the money is spent locally as possible and benefits the workforce in the city." Archbishop Blanch headteacher Jane Griffiths said: "We are all greatly excited by having the chance to plan a new building from the ground up, enabling us to create a brilliant, modern learning environment for our students." Work will start later this year on all three schools and they are expected to open in September 2015. A separate report to the Cabinet meeting shows that by September this year, officers expect 10 schools to have been completed or to be on-site under the BSF rescue package.

We have been sent the following report by UKC/UKH User gcoiley about some recent damage that he saw being carried out at Hay Tor in Devon.
While climbing at Hay Tor on March 8 I witnessed a student from Bristol University chipping rock at the top of Low Man with a pick. The student would have continued if I hadn't quickly intervened.
The group then informed me that it was OK because they were geologists and had to take samples. However, they left all the fragments they'd chipped, rather than collecting them.
Should inexperienced undergraduate students be allowed free rein with picks and hammers? Surely if every University outing allowed this then rocks throughout the country would diminish in size rapidly. If samples must be collected wouldn't it be better done in areas of loose rock already subject to heavy erosion, such as on tidal beaches, rather than the top of a tor?
I have raised my concerns with the head of the Geology department at Bristol University, but have not as yet received a reply.

Outdoor spaces are now an extension of our homes, and people are getting more creative about how they decorate these ever expanding spaces. We tend to provide comfortable seating arrangements, comfortable dining spots, and our patios and decks are becoming a reflection of our stylish interiors . Here are some 2014 trends in outdoor decorating:
Outdoor seating is trending toward sectionals or conversation-based seating arrangements in neutral natural browns and grays. Fabrics for cushions are often in black and white or bright bold colors like teal or dark purple, with art-deco, chevron or tribal patterns overtaking floral and stripes in terms of popularity. Fire-pit coffee tables are becoming popular for entertaining. Ledge space is also sought after. Many are investing in higher end furniture with a more sophisticated interior look rather than replacing low quality furniture every 2-3 years.
People are buying larger outdoor dining sets often with large square tables, sometimes with fire pits, or eclectic pairings of mismatched furnishings like wicker chairs with a wood or wrought iron table.
Many are investing in outdoor kitchens complete with fridge, grill and counter space, either on a large scale or on a more modest budget. Cabinets are available to turn grills into outdoor islands. Outdoor pizza ovens are also something more people are starting to add to their personal outdoor space, and they can do a lot more than cook pizza!
People are setting a relaxing evening visiting mood with lighting, and incorporating privacy into a more spa-like atmosphere, wanting the feeling of being on a personal vacation in the backyard. Low maintenance plants and water features add to the enjoyment with minimal upkeep. There is a trend toward customizing privacy into the outdoor living space, allowing us to experience the pleasures of the indoors while enjoying the fresh air.

Let Go and Let God
Tuesday, Jan 21, 2014, 11:58 AMEver since my first year in university, I often got to ride on a certain jeepney with a very uplifting button pin on its dashboard. It reads "Let go and let God". I came across it again this morning, now as a senior, and realized how those four simple words always came at the right time for me across my four years in college.
Thank you for the constant reminder.

The suspect originally was described as having dark skin and there was much speculation pointing to certain Saudi nationals on student visas. Their arrest would prove a major embarrassment to both the White House and DHS as it's proven one of them was a visitor to the White House on several occasions yet has a half -dozen close relatives on the terror watch list.
Said person has already left the country I believe leaving on the patsy brothers one of whose backpacks fails to meet the description of the packs containing the bombs. I agree the naked man arrested was the older Tsarnaev brother and witnesses have stated they saw him run over and shot by police later. Anyone paying attention has seen the complete reversals made by LE on who the suspects are and what happened to them.
It's hard to sort through all the lies when that is the majority of the reports.
Follow the money; it would hardly surprise me that it led back to the Saudi Arabia and the same people who have been secretly funding Wahabist extremism worldwide.

One thing that escapes people in reference to the book bags laid down there is that many of the runners in the marathon would have had friends or family members set out book bags and sports bags full of clothes for them to change into after the race.
I heard this on the radio from one of the callers into that station I was listening to. It changes your thinking a little. So there might have been hundreds of bags laid all over the place.
Now the question arises... Were the terrorists counting on this fact or had seen it before, and used the situation to their advantage?

Ok.. Yea. Why can't things have happened just the way it was claimed. Why is there convincing video evidence of a shoot out in Watertown? Why have many witnesses come forward after seeing the shoot out? What explains the MIT cop being shot? What explains the carjacking in Cambridge? Why have people reported explosives were used in Watertown? What was suspect 2 cowering in a boat if indeed the lone suspect was in custody?
I heard about the video you mention. I also heard it shows a ton of carnage. People dying. Limbs being blown off etc. I suspect we will see the video at some point but only up till he sets the bag down. I am not sure why it is so hard to wrap your head around the fact this was an amateur operation at best. If this had been black water or a fed agent they sure as hell would not have used a pressure cooker bomb loaded with BBs and nails. They would have been a vast amount of more people killed and injured.
The best article I have read about what actually happened.
Why does the story make so much sense of a young chetynian who becomes disillusioned with America and becomes influenced by his mother and other ways to the point he decides to do something like this?

He may have not seen the video but that sounds fairly descriptive to me not to mention the fact if you claim they are lying why would they claim this video exists and are also prepared to use it as evidence in a court of law?
Do you really think they would claim to have this video and then appear before a judge and say it does not exist? That is absurd and laughable......posters like you who seem to insinuate the existence of this video evidence is 100% false is really dumbfounding

Ashley Chubirka
Associate Director of Freshman Admission, Admissions
Favorite thing about North Central: The environment. This is truly a place to be challenged and supported both academically and personally. Students, faculty and staff are so welcoming and positive. It is truly a great place to "be central".
Words I use to describe North Central students: Well Rounded! Between athletics, fine arts, research and study abroad it's amazing that North Central Students find time to eat! (but they do!) This is the type of place where students are encouraged to try to news and meet new people.
Why did I choose to become an Admission Counselor at North Central? I grew up a few blocks away from North Central, and I have always felt very connected to the community. I am so lucky to be able to work at a place as great as North Central. It is an easy place to work for because it is a fantastic institution. People here put the students first.
Favorite Naperville Restaurant: This is a very hard question because I love them all! I would say top three would be Heaven on Seven, Quigley's, and Hugo's (because they have the best outdoor patio).
Favorite Season in Naperville: Fall; I love it when the students come back after summer break. I missed them! The energy on campus is so positive- everyone is excited to be back in classes, attending campus events, and reuniting with friends!
Advice to Students: Trust in yourself. If you have visited and asked questions the college you choose will be the right one. If you give a college your all you will have positive experience!

Port Vale destroyed woeful Lincoln 4-0 in front of Vale Park's lowest league crowd of the season.
A crowd of just 3,231 saw Vale go ahead after just 23 seconds when a back-pass by Ian Pearce caught out his goalkeeper Rob Burch and rolled over the line for an own goal.
And Vale's lead was doubled two minutes later when the unmarked Rob Taylor clipped a close range shot past Burch from Tommy Fraser's pass.
It should have been three inside six minutes when Burch plunged to his left to keep out a penalty from Marc Richards after the hapless Pearce had handled.
Lincoln appealed for a penalty themselves when Richards appeared to handle in the 15th minute, but the visitors conceded a third just seconds later.
A charging run by Lee Collins led to a low cross from Lewis Haldane which Craig Davies clipped into an empty net from six yards.
Former Vale loanee Chris Herd had a header cleared off the line in the 44th minute, but Lincoln's miserable night was complete in the 69th minute when John McCombe slammed a fourth from close range.

Spring/summer is always a good season for Prada. It's no secret that Mama Miuccia makes some of the best men's shoes around. I love how they followed-through on the success of the spring 2011 blockbuster "flatform" brogues (here's a pic of me around the same time LAST YEAR) by releasing yet another multi-colored twist on a time-tested classic: the golf shoe.

Is white right? Yes, according to buyers
Like white cars? You're not alone, as according a report in the Evening Standard, the sight of the stars of "The Only Way is Essex" driving around in flash white cars is increasing demand for this once unpopular colour.
Trevor Finn, Chief Executive of dealership group Pendragon said on the subject: "We've seen a material increase in the number of people driving white cars, it's one of the top five colours for new car buyers.
"Every 10 or 15 years there's a cycle where white cars become very fashionable, and we're now in it."
Pendragon reckon that this trend of buying white cars has resulted in a 22% rise in pre-tax profits, to £30.8 million for 2011 at its 250 dealerships.
These figures were probably helped by the fact that demand for prestige cars is more than for mass market ones, with their Mayfair Land Rover dealer selling more Range Rovers than anywhere else in the country.

Cannes Q&A with Marta Karlqvist, President of C&W Nordics
29th Jun 2016 | Posted by Marta Karlqvist
Following the amazing week that Cohn & Wolfe Sweden had at the 2016 Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity for "The Swedish Number" campaign, Marta Karlqvist, leader of Cohn & Wolfe's Nordic region, gives us an inside look into the execution of this award-winning idea.
THE STATS (since campaign launch on April 8, 2016)
- Total Incoming Calls: 182, 917
- Top Three Countries Calling-in: USA, the U.K. and the Netherlands
- Average Call Time: 2 minutes and 54 seconds
- Number of Countries Calling-in: 186 (out of 196 total countries in the world)
Can you tell us a little about the campaign?
To celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the year Sweden became the first country in the world to abolish censorship, the Swedish Tourist Association wanted to do something big. By signing up Sweden for its very own phone number (a global first), people from around the world could call-in to be connected to a random Swede – including Prime Minister Stefan Löfven.
How did you go about selecting Swedes to respond to the calls? Did they need to audition?
Any random Swede could sign up! There was absolutely zero selection process which was a major part of the campaign – to emphasize that Sweden is about uncensored communication.
What were the funniest discoveries or surprises from launching the campaign?
The number of Swedes who have chosen to get involved and "pick up the phone" for Sweden has been incredible. It's been enormously funny to hear the surprise in the callers' voices when they 1) discover it's actually working and 2) realize they are talking to the Prime Minister of Sweden in some cases. And, of course, one of the biggest surprises of the campaign was our shout-out from President Obama during his welcome speech to Nordic leaders visiting the White House…we practically passed out.
Were there any love connections between callers and call receivers?
We know that a lot of people chose to get connected on social media after their phone calls, but we have yet to hear of any actual love connections. Yet.
Were there any really interesting people who served as ambassadors?
Absolutely. As I mentioned, the Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven took calls, as did the opposition leader Anna Kinberg Batra. Swedish YouTube sensation Pewdiepie actually chose to call-in, publishing a video of himself quizzing fellow Swedes about Sweden.
What was the strangest question a caller received?
While calls aren't monitored – allowing the content to remain a "secret" between the caller and the answerer (a key component of the campaign – keeping it personal!), we have heard about some interesting questions:
- Can any Swede really sign up? (Yup!)
- Is it always raining in Sweden? (We have sunny days, we swear)
- Do polar bears roam the streets? (No…or at least not usually)

Defense Event
Control of Electron and Ion Energy Distributions in Inductively Coupled Plasmas Using Pulsed Power and dc Biases For Fabrication of Microelectronics
Michael Logue
PhD Candidate
Friday, July 11, 2014
10:00am - 12:00pm
Add to Google Calendar
About the Event
In order to meet present and upcoming challenges to reduce feature sizes below 22 nm, advanced plasma etching techniques are required, with tighter control over plasma properties and etch characteristics. Better control of the electron energy distribution (EED) and the ion energy distribution (IED) are two ways to help achieve this goal. The EED controls plasma properties such as electron temperature and plasma density as well as the generation rates of reactive species from feedstock gasses. IED control is an important factor in controlling etch profiles and reducing plasma induced damage. The use of pulsed ICP power, as well as dc biases on electrodes in contact with the plasma, to control EEDs and IEDs in inductively coupled plasmas (ICPs) will be discussed. Pulsed power modulates the tail of the EED and allows for modulation of the source functions for reactive species generated by high threshold energy processes. Application of dc biases onto electrodes in contact with the plasma shifts the plasma potential by approximately the dc bias voltage with a corresponding shift in the peaks of the IED. Results from investigations of these two control methods using a 2-D hybrid model, the Hybrid Plasma Equipment Model (HPEM), will be discussed.

A UNC classics professor was arrested last month on child pornography charges and lost his job, according to officials and public records.
Gilbert Kenneth Sams, 73, of 100 Oak St. in Carrboro, was charged by UNC Public Safety on Feb. 28 with 10 felony counts of second-degree exploitation of a minor, court records show.
His employment at the university, where he was working part time after starting phased retirement last July, ended the same day, personnel records show.
Arrest warrants show Sams was charged with duplicating 10 different videos depicting boys between the ages of 11 and 17 engaging in sexual activity, "the defendant knowing the material's character and content." The offenses occurred between April 2009 and July 2016, warrants state.
Sams declined to comment when reached at home.
"My attorney says I cannot say anything," he said.
Sams, a classics professor in UNC's archaeology program and chairman of the classics department from 1986 to 1996, was released from the Orange County Jail on a $30,000 secured bond on March 6. He was required to provide a DNA sample and fingerprints as a condition of his release, records show.
According to university personnel information, Sams started as a visiting assistant professor in the art department, a temporary position, in 1970, becoming a full-time permanent employee in 1971.
He is scheduled to appear in court April 28. The investigation is continuing, UNC spokesman Randy Young said.

Rebecca Genauer '08 Awarded Beinecke Scholarship
Story posted May 10, 2007
Rebecca Genauer '08 has been awarded a Beinecke Scholarship worth $32,000 in support of her graduate education. The Beinecke Scholarship Program seeks to encourage and enable highly motivated students to pursue opportunities available to them and "to be courageous in the selection of a graduated course of study."
Genauer, who is pursuing a self-designed major combining film studies and anthropology, says she has not yet begun to apply to graduate schools, but has narrowed the focus as to what she'd like to study. "My plan is to pursue film studies," says Genauer. "Preferably at a university with an archive, as I'm particularly interested in silent films, which are not always available otherwise."
Genauer is studying abroad in Sweden this semester. She says she was delighted to learn she had received the Beinecke Scholarship and is extremely grateful to her professors, Tricia Welsch, Susan Kaplan and Kathleen O'Connor, and to Anne Shields, director of fellowships and scholarships. "I feel very honored to have been awarded the scholarship and am also relieved to know that it will pay for such a significant portion of graduate studies."
Since 1975 the program has selected more than 370 college juniors from 97 schools for support during graduate study in the arts, humanities and social sciences at any accredited university.
William Sperry Beinecke served The Sperry and Hutchinson Company from 1952 as general counsel, vice-president, president and, from 1966 until his retirement in 1980, as chairman and chief executive officer. Early in his term as president, he guided the creation of the foundation that is now The Sperry Fund. During his years with the company, he was an ardent advocate for business support of charitable and educational institutions. Responding to his initiative in 1971, the Sperry and Hutchinson board established the scholarship program in memory of his father and two uncles who had led the company before him.

Weibo more heavily censored during Hong Kong's July 1 march than on Tiananmen anniversary
Related topics
China's government censored Weibo, the nation's biggest microblog platform, more on July 1, when record numbers of Hong Kong residents joined the pro-democracy march, than it did on June 4, the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square crackdown.
An average of over 70 out of every 10,000 Weibo posts made on the anniversary of Hong Kong's handover were deleted by the government in Beijing, according to Weiboscope, a University of Hong Kong media project that tracks censorship on the popular social media platform.
The ratio of censored postings – over twice as many as that on an average day – also surpassed that of 64.5 posts out of each 10,000 made on June 4 this year, the anniversary of the Communist Party's violent Tiananmen Square crackdown in 1989.
June 4 is usually the busiest day for national censors to suppress comments bloggers posted on the incident on social media such as Weibo.
Professor Fu King-wa, who administers the HKU media project, said 2,006 posts were taken down by the authorities out of some 282,000 posts Weiboscope tracked on that day. The study is based on a sample of 51,232 selected Chinese microbloggers who have more than 1,000 followers or whose posts are frequently censored.
Among the posts many deleted were those carrying photos of the massive crowds in Victoria Park as they waited to begin the July 1 march.
One specific example was a post by Hong Kong singer and actress Denise Ho showing a selfie taken on the march as she protested against discrimination against homosexuals.
Another notable censored post included a screen grab of Facebook page calling on more members of the public to participate in the march.
Weibo bans users from using search terms related to the demonstration, such as "July 1 March". Attempts to search are replied to with a message saying "results are not shown according to relevant law and policy".
In contrast to the censors tightened grip on social networks, China's official media adopted a different approach to the sensitive issue by attempting to portray July 1 as a day of celebration for Hong Kong's population.
The flagship television station CCTV ignored the march and broadcast instead the flag-raising ceremony conducted by Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying flanked by central government officials stationed in the city.
State-run news agency Xinhua reported on some 200 various celebratory activities held to celebrate Hong Kong's return to China. Pro-Chinese government paper Wenweipo contributed comprehensive coverage on the PLA garrison's open day, which coincided the anniversary and protest.
One of the few newspapers in the mainland to feature a detailed report on the march was the Global Times.
Its article nevertheless plays down the protesters' appeal for "genuine referendum" on the chief executive elections and describes the demonstration as a "hodgepodge" that reflects a wide range of protesters' appeals, ranging from gay rights and compulsory education to animal protection.
Meanwhile, access to online services such as messaging app Line and photo-sharing site Flickr were also disrupted this week.
Reuters reporters in China were unable to send messages on Line, owned by South Korea's Naver Corp, and KakaoTalk, owned by South Korean firm Kakao Corp.
Both companies told Reuters they did not know the cause of the disruption or when the services would return to normal.
Users and Reuters reporters also could not access Yahoo's Flickr photo sharing site and Microsoft's OneDrive cloud storage service.
"This is not a technical malfunction," said a member of China-based anti-censorship site GreatFire.org, who goes by the pseudonym of Charlie Smith.
"I imagine these latest blocks are attributable to the Hong Kong demonstrations," Smith said, adding that the services may have been blocked because they can be used for photo sharing.
Campaigns to "clean the internet" and get rid of rumour mongering and pornographic material have affected both domestic and overseas internet services.
China has also disrupted a number of Google services in the country for the past month, including its search engine, Gmail e-mail client and its online advertising services.
The Google disruption began in the run-up to the 25th anniversary of government's bloody crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators around Beijing's Tiananmen Square.
