In about an hour we will see if we actually get the freezing rain.
I slept fairly well last night considering the cut on my finger. Luckily it's on my left hand. I have left the band aid on it. It bled so profusely last night I hesitate to disturb it.
I have nothing planned for the day but exercise class and then only if we miss the freezing rain. I still have my new book to read if we do get it.
I guess I'll get ready for the day and get back to this later...after breakfast.
So, more later....
I don't believe the freezing rain has started yet. It's still dark out so I am not sure.
I have had my breakfast and fed Missy. I am still smarting from my injury from her claw last night. Much as her attack hurt my finger, it hurt my feelings worse. I have not been friendly with her yet this morning. I know most she doesn't know what is wrong.
I got the crossword puzzle done and it is beginning to get light out. Soon I will be able to see if we are getting the freezing rain.
I got another warning from Avast that I have some problems in my network. One of my e-mails that I considered troubling continues to set it off and I didn't even open the attachment. It is supposedly from Fed X about a problem delivering a package. I ran smart scan on my virus protection from Avast and it was blocked but evidently not deleted.
More later....
We have had some freezing rain but not a lot so far. Bob came for lunch and I invited Marilyn R. too. She brought cookies to eat with our pudding for dessert. We had a good visit.
I read all afternoon since the weather was cold and damp.
Bob came back at 5:15 to watch the news here and to watch Brooks and Shields on PBS as they analyze the news. He left at 7:00 and I took my bath and Missy and I watched TV on the sofa until 9:00 when we went to bed.

I hope you don't get that rain / ice ! My son's in St.Louis and they are expecting it too. He made plans to work from home.
Earlier in the week it was in our forecast but now it seems that it won't hit here.

Adityanath Govt To Withdraw 131 Muzaffarnagar, Shamli Riots Cases; Opposition Criticises Move
The Logical Indian Crew Bihar
March 23rd, 2018 / 6:11 PM
Courtesy: Scroll, Hindustan Times, The Hindu | Image Credits: Media India
The Yogi Adityanath led-BJP government on Thursday began the process of revoking 131 cases linked to 2013 Muzaffarnagar and Shamli riots, all of them filed against members of one community.
This sudden turn of events is after CM Yogi's February meeting with a delegation of Khap leaders from Muzaffarnagar and Shamli, including BJP MP Sanjiv Balyan and the party's Budhana MLA Umesh Malik, who had presented a list of 179 cases in the Muzaffarnagar riots and sought to withdraw them.
"All the accused in the list given to Adityanath were Hindus. In the meeting with the chief minister in February, I requested him to consider the withdrawal of 179 cases, in which over 850 Hindus were held accused," Balyan said, reported Scroll.
Balyan further added, "The cases include those of arson, attempt to murder and damage of properties. No murder accused were on the list."
On the contrary, MLA Malik said that there were murder cases on the list as well.
Seeking details of information on 131 cases, UP Law Department on February 23 sent letters signed by Special Secretary Rajesh Singh to the district magistrate of Muzaffarnagar and Shamli.
Documents revealed that the Uttar Pradesh Government withdrew cases including the charges against IPC sections related to "heinous" crimes for which an accused if found guilty can be sentenced to up to seven years in jail.
Moreover, there are 16 cases under section 153 A on charges of promoting enmity on religious grounds, and two under section 295 A for deliberate and malicious acts intended to insult religion or religious beliefs.
Early this year, the Adityanath government had written to the district magistrate seeking to withdraw nine criminal cases pending in a court in Muzaffarnagar against BJP leaders in connection with the riots.
In fact, in January, the UP government had written to Muzaffarnagar district magistrate and the senior superintendent of police for their view on withdrawal of cases.
UP Minister Suresh Rana, former Union Minister Sanjiv Balyan, Bijnor MP Bhartendu Singh, Budhana MLA Umesh Malik and party leader Sadhvi Prachi were among those accused of being involved in the Muzaffarnagar riots.
When referring to the above new report to the Uttar Pradesh Minister of Law and Justice Brijesh Pathak did not give a specific reply and said, "The Yogi Adityanath government may withdraw riot cases if they are 'politically motivated'," reported The Hindu.
"Riot cases are also registered under the IPC. If these are politically motivated, we will surely consider their withdrawal," Minister said.
"He has decided to withdraw those cases which were filed due to political reasons. We have initiated a process in this regard. The State government is withdrawing the cases lodged because of political rivalry," he further said, reported The Tribune, adding that the state government had received applications from leaders of several parties.
"I have the entire list (of leaders) with me. More than 62 lakh cases are pending in various courts. It is a serious issue. We will withdraw cases that certainly were filed on extraneous considerations," he said, according to Hindustan Times.
What is the procedure for withdrawal of cases?
Lawyer Umesh Kumar said, "There is a procedure under section 321 of the code of criminal procedure under which the state government withdraws cases. The application for withdrawal of cases has been forwarded to the district magistrate of the respective district."
Once the state government gives its approval for withdrawal, the public prosecutor will move a petition in the district court. However, senior lawyer in Allahabad high court IB Singh said, "The public prosecutor has to convince the court that the withdrawal of the cases is in public interest."
The 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots
The communal clashes in Muzaffarnagar and adjoining areas in August and September 2013 had left more than 60 dead and rendered 50,000 homeless.
Following the violence, a total of 503 cases were lodged against 1,455 persons at Muzaffarnagar and Shamli Police Stations.
Reportedly, hardline Hindu leader Adityanath was himself accused of being involved in inciting communal violence in Gorakhpur in 2007. His government refused to sanction prosecution against him in May 2017.
No order of reinvestigation was issued into the allegations by the CBI on February 28 due to the refusal by the Allahabad High Court.

Living My Life Laughing
About a week and a half ago, I was driving 90 miles an hour to rush one of my friends to the hospital to be with her mom in her last few minutes of life. We made it with about 20 minutes to spare.
What followed for me was a few hours of sitting in the waiting room holding her three girls, rocking them back and forth as their confused tears flowed. As I fixed their hair, raided the waiting room kitchen for all the graham crackers we could find, and talked about their precious grandmother, their little hearts were full of questions and curiosity.
At 9, 7, and 3, they'd never experienced death up close and really didn't quite understand all the implications and complexities that come with it.
They weren't even quite sure how it works.
At one point the littlest and I were talking about how now her grandma was with Jesus and she was so happy to be there. She understood that her grandma was not in the hospital room anymore, but rather in Heaven with Jesus. And she was perfectly okay with this explanation.
Until one sentence rocked her to her core.
Someone mentioned in passing that her body was still in the hospital room, but her spirit was with Jesus.
I saw the confusion hit her tiny little face like a ton of bricks.
After twenty minutes of silence and snuggling, she turned around in my lap, gently grabbed my face in her two chubby hands and held my gaze.
She very seriously, and very quietly asked, "Is Grandma's head still on her body?"
You guys.
Her sweet little brain was just trying to figure out how all of what she'd heard could be true. And in her young mind, the most important body part for interacting with Jesus was most likely your head. After all, it does all the talking, right? And eating. And thinking. And laughing. If you had to take one part with you and leave the rest in the hospital room, the head ought to be the clear choice.
This week has been filled with plans, memories, cleaning, mourning, banding together, and overwhelming emotion for this family.
It's really brought me to a place of consideration and thoughtfulness.
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about how I'm coming out of the fog and looking for my place in the world again – finding out who the new me is.
It's interesting that at the same time, I've been walking through this time of loss with my friend and her family.
It's given me so many new reasons to pause and reflect and consider my own life.
I'm working through my own issues with death and life and really living.
I am definitely not done yet.
But one of the things that I have really grabbed ahold of this week is the idea of wanting to live my life fully. My friend's mom lived her life for the past few years knowing that her ultimate home was in Heaven, and she lived like it.
When she left this earth, she wanted a party. She knew where she was going to be, and though those of us left here would mourn and feel loss, she would be dancing and feasting with Jesus!
So we threw a party! There were funny stories, laughter, drinking, lots of food…a true celebration!
At the celebration of life on Saturday, my friend declared the verse Proverbs 31:25 to be the embodiment of her mother.
What a powerful thing for others to declare of you!
I know that I want that to be me.
What a comfort to know that I can laugh without fear of the future.
I know who holds the future, and He is mighty. He is good, and He gave His life to save mine so that we could be together for eternity.
It's not laughing in the face of the future and what it holds for me. It's not looking at heartache and hardship and laughing at it as if I don't care. It's not being fearless.
What it really means is finding joy in today and not being afraid to experience it with the unknown of the future looming ahead of me. It's understanding that the future likely holds pain and hard things and standing with the confidence that the King who died to clothe me in strength and dignity will not leave my side so that I won't have to be afraid of whatever may come.
It's time to live my life laughing.

Battery production is complex process that involves several products, many components, and multiple manufacturing stages. The manufacturing of automotive batteries for cars, trucks, and boats is done through a unique manufacturing process that includes several physical and chemical operations. These operations include lead strip manufacturing, steaming, chemical curing, acid filling, formation, electrical charging, and final assembly. The distinctive nature of the battery manufacturing process lead to special considerations and objectives in planning and scheduling of battery production activities. This chapter presents an integer programming model for achieving the maximum profitability in the formation stage of the battery manufacturing process at a mid-size battery making company. The model is formulated and applied to actual production problem using real data from the Middle East Battery Company (MEBCO) in Saudi Arabia. Optimum production plans generated by the model have shown significant improvement in profitability over the previously used manually generated production plans.
Middle East Battery Company (MEBCO) is a joint venture between a group of Saudi Industrialists and business leaders and Johnson Control International (JCI). MEBCO produces AC Delco, JCI and Toyota branded maintenance free batteries. The plant is located in 2nd Industrial City in Dammam, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. JCI is a 49% equity partner in MEBCO and has management responsibility for the plant operation. The plant is the first Delphi battery plant built specifically to serve the after-market and is Delphi's first manufacturing operation in the Middle East producing batteries for comprehensive vehicle market, including European, Asian, North American, as well as marine, commercial and industrial applications.
The plant started its test production in November 1997 and had the first shipment to customers on January 14, 1998. MEBCO's primary market is the Gulf Cooperation Council states: Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman. Other markets include Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Asia Pacific, North America and South Africa. The production has been consistently growing and passed the 2.5 million mark in October 2006. The plant produces batteries for all vehicle types, as well as marine, commercial and industrial applications. MEBCO's primary market is the Middle East, but it also has growing markets in Asia, Europe, and North America. Other potential markets and part numbers are continuously explored to suit the market demands and application requirements.
MEBCO's battery manufacturing plant is divided into 4 main areas; X-Met, Green Group, Formation, and Final Assembly. The Formation area's main function is the electrical charging of batteries for periods that range from 14.5 hours to 24 hours, depending on the type of battery. Because of the limited time per day, and also because of space limitations that restrict the number of charging circuits, the Formation area is considered to be the bottleneck of the battery production capacity.
According to the theory of constraints, the throughput rate of any multi-component system is controlled by the slowest component (called the constraint or the bottleneck). In order to maximize the productivity (profitability) of the battery production line, the company needs to optimize the production planning output in the formation stage. As shown in the following section, a variety of optimization and heuristic techniques have been used to solve battery production planning problems. In this chapter, an integer programming (IP) model is used to maximize the profitability of the formation area. This IP model has been practically applied to optimally schedule the daily production of 74 battery models. The model considers different battery sizes, charging times, and daily demands, as well as limitations on times, capacities, and numbers of different types of charging circuits. Compared to manually generated production plans, the IP-optimized production plans increase daily profits by 12% on average.
The remaining sections of this chapter are arranged as follows. First, previous literature on battery production planning is reviewed. Next, the manufacturing process, especially in the formation step, is described in more detail. Subsequently, the integer programming model for battery production planning is presented, and then the model's performance is compared to the current manual approach. Finally, results are analyzed, and conclusions are drawn.

For whatever reason, the world of food firsts is hotly contested turf. So much so that you if you feel the impulse, you might actually want to just stop reading this article, head directly to your kitchen, whip up something novel and start feeding it to everyone you know in the hope you can start a foodie revolution. If you get the credit for a divinely innovative creation, your name will be hailed for generations.
That being said (and if you haven't already left to search for new killer ingredient combos), let's talk Caesar salad. Caesar salad was reportedly invented by a man named Caesar Cardini in 1924. The widely touted story goes a little something like this: Cardini, who owned the restaurant Tijuana, was running low on supplies when some hungry friends happened by. Not wanting them to starve, he threw together a few ingredients he still had on hand. Among them were romaine lettuce, garlic, croutons, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, eggs and Worcestershire sauce.
His patrons were reportedly more than satisfied with the mix, and word spread of this agreeable new leafy delight. A salad sensation was born. Sadly, however, while the Caesar salad remains a classic dish to this day, the restaurant that spawned the creation has since shut its doors (at least for the time being).
Of course, some mysteries and Caesar salad conspiracy theories still abound. Was the Caesar salad really the brainchild of some long-forgotten anonymous cook slaving away back in the kitchen? Did the anchovies -- now often a Caesar staple -- only get slipped in by Cardini's brother Alex? And how much are you craving a Caesar salad right now?

There are lots of situations where training programs have loads of optimistic attributes whereas providing quality info to the learners. However, many of those courses are mandatory and forced upon a learner with out ample buy-in from the learner. Most of the issues identified by learners of nose to nose learning teams may be traced again to not having sufficient flexibility to work round their professional and/or private schedule (Galusha, 1998). By allowing learners to access course materials and lessons asynchronously, it would help to promote participation as one thing that is useful and not something that's overbearing on the life of the learner.

Dhi brahmanassa hantaram tato dhi yassa muncati.[389]
One should not strike a brahmana,1nor should a brahmana vent (his wrath) on one who has struck him.
Shame on him who strikes a brahmana! More shame on him who gives vent (to his wrath!). [389]
Na brahmanass' etada kinci seyyo yada nisedho manaso piyehi
Yato yato himsamano nivattati tato tato sammatimeva dukkham.[390]
Unto a brahmana that (non-retaliation) is of no small advantage.
When the mind is weaned from things dear, whenever the intent to harm ceases, then and then only doth sorrow subside. [390]
The Venerable Sariputta was often praised by many people for his patience and forbearance. His pupils usually said, 'Our teacher is a man of great patience and extreme endurance. If he is abused or even beaten by others, he does not lose his temper but remains calm and composed.' A certain brahmin holding wrong views declared he would provoke Sariputta into anger. When he saw Sariputta, on his almsround, he went and hit him on his back with his hand. Sariputta did not even look around to see who was the person who hit him, but proceeded on his way as if nothing had happened. The brahmin felt ashamed at what he had done. He got down on his knees at the feet of Sariputta, admitted his grevious mistake and asked for pardon. The brahmin then continued: 'Venerable Sir! Should you forgive me, kindly come to my house for almsfood.'
In the evening other bhikkhus reported to the Buddha that Sariputta had gone for almsfood to the house of a brahmin who had beaten him. Further they commented that the brahmin was sure to get bolder and he would soon be assaulting other bhikkhus also. The Buddha replied, 'Bhikkhus, a true brahmin does not beat another true brahmin, only an ordinary man or an ordinary brahmin would beat an Arahant in anger and ill-will.'
- Herebrahmanais used in the sense of an Arahant.

"There was no possibility of taking a walk that day." So begins one of my favourite novels—Jane Eyre. In the latest screen version, Jane Eyre opens with a flight through the moors, a scene that occurs more than half-way through the novel. We learn of Jane's past through flashbacks, from her horrible childhood to her time at Thornfield Hall as the governess to the ward of the brooding Edward Rochester.
This new film is gorgeous. The use of natural lighting (and some computer work) washes the scenes in various shades of gray that help to enhance the mood of the story. There are also some intimate moments, as when Jane is seen alone in the garden of Thornfield, that have the feel of a impressionist painting.
For the most part the cast is spot on, from the always brilliant Judi Dench as the loyal housekeeper Mrs. Fairfax to Sally Hawkins as Jane's evil Aunt Reed. Freya Parks who appears briefly as Jane's childhood friend, Helen Burns, is a dead ringer for Shirley Temple's downtrodden friend Becky in The Little Princess (ok, I'm digressing). Yet the most important role, of course, is that of Jane, plain and small. Mia Wasikowska does not disappoint. She has the look and the intelligence of Jane Eyre. She also exhibits Jane's inability to completely suppress her emotions. Michael Fassbender has the daunting task of stepping into the shoes of Rochester. While he makes a dashing Byronic figure he doesn't seem to have Rochester's anguish. And quite frankly, he doesn't seem all that intimidating either.
Which brings us to the reason why at the end I wasn't in love with this adaptation. The film curiously seems to be lacking passion. There are tense scenes between Jane and Rochester but the overriding passion that runs throughout the book seems almost distant here. Perhaps this has something to do with the script, which has edited a very large novel down to just under two hours. In fact, there were scenes from the book that I missed like the gypsy fortuneteller at the party (actually, the whole visiting party seemed too short). Other omissions including the lack of seeing the important Grace Poole or having Adele's relationship with Rochester reduced to a comment seem to take away from the story not help it along.

Domenico SCARLATTI (1685 - 1757): Cantatas

Domenico Scarlatti is almost exclusively associated with his around 600 sonatas for keyboard. But, as most composers of his time, he also contributed to other genres, like music for instrumental ensemble and vocal music. In the early stages of his career, when he was still in Italy, he composed several operas. As there was a close connection between the opera and the chamber cantata it doesn't come as a surprise that his output contains several specimen of the latter genre, which was extremely popular throughout the whole of Europe. It has taken some time until Domenico's cantatas were appreciated. Indicative of the rather negative view of these works is the judgement of the prominent Scarlatti expert Ralph Kirkpatrick, who described Domenico's vocal style as "so lacking in individuality that I cannot vouch for the authenticity of the following works". The lack of appreciation seems to be caused to a large extent by a misunderstanding in regard to their time of composition. It was thought most cantatas were written early in Scarlatti's life in Italy. But now it is assumed many of them were written in Spain in the 1740's. This means they reflect the stylistic development in the middle of the 18th century.
The cantatas recorded here are also assumed being written at that time, probably for the soprano castrato Farinelli, born as Carlo Broschi in 1705. After a very successful career as an opera singer he decided to go to Madrid at the request of the Spanish queen who hoped his singing would help her husband, King Philip V, to overcome his depressions. His close friendship with the king got him involved into diplomatic activities. When the king died in 1746 he became director of a theatre, and he gradually withdrew from performing in public as a singer. Farinelli was well past his prime, and that could be the reason Scarlatti mostly shuns too much virtuosity.
But there is also a stylistic reason for this. During the 1740s there was a growing demand for a 'natural' style of composing. In theatrical music this meant that characters should be portrayed in a more natural way, reflecting their different moods according to the situation. And this also meant the end of the baroque principle of 'unity of affections'. In the cantatas recorded here Scarlatti pays tribute to this new ideal of 'naturalness' through contrasting affections within arias.
It is only natural to look for similarities between them and the sonatas for keyboard. There seem not to be too many of them: the cantatas don't show the extravagance of so many sonatas. This can partly be explained by the fact that Scarlatti wrote his sonatas for his own use, and many may originate in improvisations. A cantata written out to be performed by someone else is a wholly different thing. Even so there are similarities, even in those arias which seem predominantly lyrical in character. Not all Scarlatti's sonatas are fast, virtuosic and exuberant. The slower arias in the cantatas on this disc are comparable to sonatas with tempo indications like 'andante' or 'cantabile'. And to a certain extent the more exuberant sonatas are recognizable in the faster and more virtuosic arias. Here we find some large leaps in the solo part as well as some strikingly sharp rhythms.
All cantatas on this disc are written for soprano. This was common in the 18th century, although it goes too far to conclude from this they were always sung by sopranos. It wasn't unusual to transpose cantatas for a performance by a lower voice. I don't know whether the cantatas on this disc have been transposed. It is possible that they are not, considering the rather low pitch in this recording (a=411') and the singer's tessitura. Cencic has a well-developed high register: he describes his voice as mezzo soprano.
He started his career as a male soprano. Years ago I heard him live in this capacity, and it was pretty awful. This was probably the time he was close to the artistic and personal crisis he very frankly talks about in the documentary on the DVD which accompanies this disc. After staying away from singing for some time he made a comeback and decided to sing as a male alto. That was a wise decision, as he sounds much more comfortable here. One also can hear the text, which was not the case when he sang as a male soprano. Not that I am really pleased by his voice. His high register is strong, but also a little shrill. In the middle and lower register his voice is much more pleasant. What I find most problematic is his continuous, pretty large vibrato. It is not only tiresome, but also questionable from a historical point of view. Otherwise there is nothing wrong with his interpretation. He prefers singing in the theatre, and that is reflected in his performances of these cantatas.
One aspect of this interpretation is the use of a fortepiano both in the basso continuo and in sonatas which intersperse the programme. It is a copy of a very early specimen of the fortepiano, according to the booklet "made in Bartolomeo Cristofori's workshop and signed Giovanni Ferrini 1730". Scarlatti once ordered a fortepiano for the Spanish court. "The comparatively soft but dynamically variable tone of this immensely "modern" and "sensitive" instrument is eminently suited to intimate chamber music and above all to accompanying the voice", according to Karsten Erik Ose in the booklet. That may be true, but in this case I am often disappointed by the result. In the more introverted arias it works rather well, but in the more dramatic arias and recitatives it lacks profile and the ability to give rhythmic support. In the last aria of the second cantata,
Filli, giŕ piů non parlo
, the fortepiano is clearly overpowered by the guitar. It is no coincidence many conductors prefer a harpsichord for the accompaniment of the singers even in operas and oratorios of the late 18th century.
To sum up: this disc offers an interesting programme of hardly-known repertoire which is the reason I recommend it. But those who can't stand a continuous vibrato are well advised to stay away from it. The DVD is interesting, because of some early recordings by Cencic as a treble – for five years he was a member of the Wiener Sängerknaben – and because of the frankness and honesty of Cencic, who seems to be a very sensitive and modest character. It is in German, with subtitles in English, not always very precise, but good enough to understand what Cencic means.

Stream TV Networks is marrying consumer-ready 4K TVs with 3D: its Ultra-D glasses-free adjustable 3D technology has been ported to 50" and 55" TV models, set to debut at CES 2014.
Some of the TVs will be accompanied by the seeCube-4K, an external device that converts a wide range of content – 2D or 3D stereoscopic sources – to 2160p glasses-free 3D in real time. Stream TV has added its real-time conversion technology to the new Qualcomm 8074 processor, and a second version of the TV will carry the conversion technology built into a chip, significantly reducing costs.
The Ultra-D technology converts 1080p/two million pixel content into a 4K/eight million pixel viewing experience. Users can connect their satellite or cable service, VOD, Blu-ray player, Xbox or PlayStation, as well as watch Internet content from Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Baidu TV, PPStv, iQYi tv, Totou TV and other video sites.
Qualcomm's latest 8074 processor features the new Krait 400 CPU in quad configuration, with speeds of up to 2.3GHz per core for best-in-class performance per watt, so processor performance can hold up to the more demanding processing. The new Adreno 330 GPU delivers more than two times the performance for compute applications over the current Adreno 320 GPU, capturing playback and display in 2160p video.
"Ultra-D presents a never-before-seen glasses-free 3D viewing experience," said Mathu Rajan, CEO of Stream TV Networks. "There's a lack of 4K content out there, but by generating millions of new pixels with depth information, we truly take advantage of what a 4K screen can offer."

Meghan Markle And Prince Harry: Their First 100 (Or So) Days
15 big moments from the newlyweds' first few months of marriage.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's life as a married couple has been filled with milestones, but this week they may have reached their biggest one since tying the knot, and that's clocking in 100 days as Mr and Mrs.
It is therefore now time to take a trip down memory lane and celebrate the highlights of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's first three months of wedded bliss.
So best you dismiss the servants, retire to your private wing and relax with a cuppa -- served in the good china, obvs -- as we kick off with ...
The Wedding
Where do you even start with this picture-perfect day? There was the fairy tale setting of Windsor Castle, the gaggle of adorable bridesmaids and page boys -- even the weather was stunning.
It was all eclipsed of course when one Ms. Markle stepped out of the car in that jaw-dropping Givenchy dress.
Then of course there were the celeb attendees including the US Queen herself, Oprah, who apparently struck up a friendship with the bride's mother, Doria Ragland, before the wedding.
And how can we forget American Reverend Michael Curry -- the first black leader of the Episcopal Church in the US -- who almost stole the whole show with his powerful sermon.
Where is the good Rev now? He underwent surgery for prostate cancer in early August, and is reportedly recovering at home. We wish him all the best.
We can still hear the church bells a-ringing ...
The official pics
Mere days after the two had tied the knot royal wedding fever was reignited when the Palace released the official wedding portraits.
Safe to say that we were, and still are, nowhere near ready to let these nuptials go.
Just Married
The newlyweds stepped out for their very first official engagement together just three days after the wedding for Prince Charles' 70th birthday celebrations, and it gave us all a chance to bask in Harry and Meghan's loved-up glow.
Oh and also check out the Duchess' new royal wardrobe.
Top secret honeymoon
Rumours swirled around the exclusive destination that Haz and Megs had selected for their honeymoon -- the hot tip was Canada at one point -- but the location is to this day still rather impressively under wraps.
BFFs with the Queen
Less than a month after officially joining the royal family, Meghan was whisked off on her first solo outing with her grandmother-in-law, the Queen. Nerve-wracking much?
The resulting photos prove that the two spent a very enjoyable day indeed visiting Chester city in the country's northwest on June 14, so much so people started calling them new BFFs.
By all accounts the pair's relationship has only strengthened, with Her Majesty seemingly taking Meg under her regal wing at future engagements like the Trooping the Colour.
If that's not the royal seal of approval we don't know what is.
Happy days
One lucky punter was privvy to the new Duchess' early thoughts on marriage during the Chester trip, with Meghan sharing that Harry was the "best husband ever."
Aaaaand we all proceeded to die from cuteness. RIP us.
Chummy with Charles
The Queen wasn't the only senior royal that Meghan had apparently won over, when word got out that father-in-law Prince Charles had given her an affectionate, if not strange, nickname.
Harry's dad did step in to walk Meghan down the aisle at the eleventh hour after all when her own father was unable to attend due to rather dramatic circumstances, which leads us to ...
The crazy in-laws
It's no secret that Meghan's family, particularity her father Thomas Markle and half-sister Samantha, are rather, er ... outspoken. Every other day there's something new for them to complain about or pick apart, whether it's the Queen's decision to meet with US President Trump, or Meghan's apparent disrespect toward her dad.
While the Meghan and her newly-adopted family have kept mum on the whole ugly saga, celebs like model Chrissy Teigan have openly sassed Thomas and co. for their poor form. Speak your truth, Chrissy.
Irish Getaway
Meghan and Harry jetted off to Ireland on July 11 for a jam-packed day of engagements which included meeting two very gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dogs, and of course their owner, the Irish President.
Both human and animal parties appeared to enjoy the whole interaction immensely.
The adorableness didn't stop their, either, with a curious little fan getting up close and personal with the Duchess' tresses.
Harry waved a cheeky finger at the youngster while his wife gently tugged her hair free, meanwhile everyone just shouted GOODNESS JUST HAVE SOME BABIES RIGHT NOW.
Sister-sister time
Days after her Irish jaunt, Meghan caught up with her sis-in-law Kate Middleton when the pair attended a Wimbledon match, and they appeared thick as thieves as they chatted and giggled throughout.
The Duchesses both looked fab, with Meghan in a striped shirt, cream palazzo pants and rocking her now-signature messy bun.
Home sweet home
There we all were expecting the newlyweds to set up their home at York Cottage at Sandringham -- it was, after all, reportedly gifted to them by the Queen.
But in late July those plans were seemingly biffed in favour of another grand residence, Adelaide Cottage on the grounds of Windsor Castle.
Updated in 2015, the estate offers seven gated entrances and exits to Windsor Castle so Haz and Megs can zip in and out as they please, and in a racy twist the sprawling abode was once home to the late Princess Margaret's lover, Peter Townsend.
By all accounts the couple should have moved in by now and be arguing over whose turn it is to take out the rubbish.
A pash at the polo
A Harry-and-Meghan sighting is a treat in itself but royal watchers got a whole lot more when the royal newlyweds puckered up big time at a charity polo match on July 26.
Naturally the entire planet went into a spin, and it's unlikely we'll ever really recover tbh.
Harry gives his car the boot
Heads kept on spinning in early August when the Prince quietly decided to sell his silver Audi, which of course meant that he and Meghan are having a baby.
Don't quite see the connection? Well the idea was that Harry was doing what many couples do when they're planning a family, and that's trade in their car for something more bub-friendly.
A spokesperson for the car sales site itself didn't help things much when they pretty much said that exact same thing.
Happy royal returns
The Duchess celebrated her first ever birthday as a fully-fledged royal on August 4 by ... attending one of Harry's friend's weddings.
By the looks of things it wasn't a total bummer, and we're surer than sure Harry had something special up his sleeve for the remainder of the day. What that was, we sadly do not know.
Megs also received some birthday love from her makeup artist pal Daniel Martin -- he did her pared-back wedding look -- who shared a sweet throwback vid of the Duchess eating raspberries.
Dog days
The latest news is that the Duke and Duchess are now proud parents to a bundle of canine joy in the form of a Labrador. Aww.
The couple's new four-legged pal joins Meghan's rescue dog, a Beagle named Guy, who she brought over to London in 2017.
Pics of the pup have yet to surface but we cannot wait to see the Sussex's newest family member. Stay tuned!

Microsoft SSRS and SQL Server comes with poor support for metadata management functions such as data lineage and impact analysis, the IBM Business Information Exchange can fix this.
Business Intelligence and Information Management environments become harder to manage as the code behind the data movement and reporting is usually poorly documented and contains a lot of black box complex transformations or SQL statements.
This is the first post in a series on how to Govern Microsoft reporting using the IBM Business Information Exchange (BIE) – bringing the type of metadata query, search, lineage, import and impact analysis functions that Microsoft is terrible at and making a Microsoft environment easier to manage. It uses Microsoft AdventureWorks samples to show how the two products interact. The use of IBM BIE with Microsoft SQL Server, SSIS, SSRS and SSAS can bring some badly needed governance and support to any Microsoft environment.
The BIE works by importing Microsoft SSRS metadata straight from report files into a metadata repository where a wide range of governance and reporting functions are available:
- A metadata repository where you can search, browse and run queries against any type of metadata.
- View metadata via data lineage diagrams to see how data moves across an information supply chain.
- Expose some of the hidden transformation of SSRS to see how data is changed by database views and SSRS queries.
- Gain the ability to run Impact Analysis reports so you can see how SSRS reports are impacted by database changes.
- Profile and understand a wide range of source systems.
The Business Information Exchange is made up of these products:
- InfoSphere Business Glossary: a business user facing application for terms and definitions seen across systems and reports along with a range of functionality for stewardship, policies, rules, synonyms.
- InfoSphere Metadata Workbench: a web based tool for querying and searching all metadata in the BIE and showing lineage graphs and diagrams.
- InfoSphere Metadata Asset Manager: a web based tool for importing metadata from BI, IM and data modelling products with out of the box support for IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, SAS, ErWin, PowerDesigner and many more.
- InfoSphere Discovery: a data profiling and overlap analysis tool for understanding how source data is structured and discovering transformation rules.
- InfoSphere Data Architect: data modelling tool that helps build an information model based on imported metadata from databases.
In this series of blog posts I am looking at metadata management and impact analysis. The ability to understand how changes to source systems impacts the Microsoft SSRS reports built or how a user can find out where SRSS data comes from. This first entry shows at what Data Lineage looks like for an SSRS report.
Where did my data come from?
What I have done is put together simple data lineage scenario – I have taken one of the Microsoft AdventureWorks demo reports called Company Sales and asked a question - "Where does the Sales field come from?" SSRS shows Sales data in this report but has no way to tell the user where the data comes from. In IBM Metadata Workbench I can open up the Date Lineage of this report to see what tables the data was pulled from and then filter the diagram just on the "Sales" field:
What this diagram shows me on the left side the report pulls data from four tables using queries: SalesOrderHeader, ProductSubCategory, ProductCategory and SalesOrderDetail. The column filter shows me that Sales data comes from the SalesOrderDetailTable – is has greyed out the other tables – and the arrows between the SalesOrderDetail table and the SSRS Query shows me that OrderQty and UnitPrice are merged to become Sales. The rest of the diagram shows me SSRS metadata – how data from the Query used by the report and by a page in the report.
If I tried to find this same information in SSRS I would have to read the Query SQL syntax to find out what is going on:
SELECT PC.Name AS ProdCat, PS.Name AS SubCat, DATEPART(yy, SOH.OrderDate) AS OrderYear, 'Q' + DATENAME(qq, SOH.OrderDate) AS OrderQtr,
SUM(SOD.UnitPrice * SOD.OrderQty) AS Sales
FROM Production.ProductSubcategory PS INNER JOIN
Sales.SalesOrderHeader SOH INNER JOIN
Sales.SalesOrderDetail SOD ON SOH.SalesOrderID = SOD.SalesOrderID INNER JOIN
Production.Product P ON SOD.ProductID = P.ProductID ON PS.ProductSubcategoryID = P.ProductSubcategoryID INNER JOIN
Production.ProductCategory PC ON PS.ProductCategoryID = PC.ProductCategoryID
WHERE (SOH.OrderDate BETWEEN '1/1/2002' AND '12/31/2009')
GROUP BY DATEPART(yy, SOH.OrderDate), PC.Name, PS.Name, 'Q' + DATENAME(qq, SOH.OrderDate), PS.ProductSubcategoryID
Because I can read SQL I can work out that Sales comes from UnitPrice and OrderQty – but this is a time consuming way to work out where information is coming from – especially in reports with many queries or more complex queries. The IBM Metadata Workbench imports this query, parses it and turns it into a lineage diagram:
The BIE is designed to bring transperency to metadata and data movement across a number of products. It does this via the central metadata repository and advanced functions for stitching metadata together and displaying the results in diagrams and property pages. This type of lineage diagram can be run for any Microsoft SSRS report and helps users and developers and administrators understand where SSRS reports are getting data from.
In the next blog post How to import Microsoft SSRS Metadata into the IBM Business Information Exchange I will show the steps for importing this metadata from SSRS into BIE. The data lineage shown here goes back to the source tables in the database, the lineage can be extended into showing database views and for whatever put the data into those tables - SSIS jobs, ETL jobs etc.

A trio of Dolphins talking points with the start of training camp just four days away:
1. Third quarterback will take away someone else's roster spot.
Dolphins fans are starting to get a little greedy with the number of offensive weapons they expect to have on the team this fall.
They want three quarterbacks on the roster. And six receivers. And four running backs. And five tight ends, of course, to keep up with the Patriots and Ravens in the AFC.
The Dolphins probably will keep three quarterbacks, with Matt Moore and David Garrard likely battling for the starting job and Ryan Tannehill relegated to clipboard duty early in the season. But new coach Joe Philbin will have to make tough decisions elsewhere on the offensive depth chart to compensate.
An offense typically employs 25 players (at most 26). This was the Dolphins' opening day roster breakdown last year:

Ara Chackerian Aids the Reinvention of U.S. Healthcare
Angel investors are successful businesspeople providing capital to early stage ventures. The seed money granted to such start-ups is mostly an investment for profit, but for many angels it is an endorsement of cause. Ara Chackerian is one such angel. A noted philanthropist and master businessman, Ara Chackerian has a passion for reinventing healthcare, and he is putting his money where is passion is. Over the past two decades Chackerian, Managing Partner for ASC Captial Holdings, has co-founded numerous healthcare companies. Each company at the forefront of innovation, and dedicated to changing the way the U.S. does healthcare.
At present Chackerian is the co-founder and board member for TMS Health Solutions, a company focuses on mental health in the area of resistant depression. Before TMS Ara co-founded BMC Diagnostics, a current leader in diagnostic imaging services, and PipelineRx, a Telepharmacy service with national reach. TMS is his newest venture and passion: raising awareness and providing treatment for mental health issues. Visit arachackerian.com
Chackerian is one of many entrepreneurs fascinated with improving healthcare. From age-prevention, to increasing provision, or heralding a medical cause many businesspeople are doing their part to fund the future of healthcare. TMS is a pioneer for transcranial magnetic stimulation, a revolutionary treatment with the potential to cure a laundry list of mental diseases. At present the treatment is being used patients suffering from resistant depression. Chackerian first became aware of the treatment in a chance meeting with Dr. Richard Bermudas, who had been an advocate of TMS since its FDA approval.
Like many start-ups TMS was floundering in structural restraints. Limited coverage from insurance, hiring difficulties, problems with retaining staff, and difficulty hiring quality technicians were plaguing the company. Ara immediately stepped in and became their angel, conviced that the treatment could potentially help thousands. His decision primarily based on Dr. Bermudas.
Angel investors like Ara Chackerian will be the primary force that drives healthcare into the future. By taking chances in what they believe in, they give others the opportunity to pass restrictions. For investors like Chackerian it is not about profit, but a belief in people, and when that belief pays off healthcare in the U.S. will be the better for it. You can visit arachackerian.com

England charge towards world's summit
The 2000th Test at Lord's proved a fitting spectacle of the milestone as England won it deep into the last session of the match.
But Andrew Strauss' side have a much narrower focus than celebrating the game's oldest format, and that is to usurp India as the No 1 Test team. This deserved win, by 196 runs, was a significant stepping stone in the process.
Lord's was still filled to the brim to see a rejuvenated Stuart Broad deliver the coup de grace when he had Ishant Sharma lbw shortly after 5.20, to one that might have taken the edge of his bat.
Only half of a packed Lord's stood in celebration though, India being well represented enough for some of their supporters to have been queuing for tickets at 2.0am.
If Sharma's lbw did involve a bit of wood, even having Hawkeye -- the part of the Decision Review System banned from this series after India's objections to it -- would not have helped them. Sachin Tendulkar and Suresh Raina, India's best player yesterday with 78, had been given not out to lbw appeals that would have been overturned by DRS.
The better team won and England, despite fluffing four catches, were hugely impressive in taking the honours. Their pack mentality was so focused that even India's experienced veterans could not prevent it from running them down.
Not everything went to plan during the match. There was a wobble in their second innings, when they found themselves 62-5. But whereas such jeopardy would previously have floored them, they have so much belief and quality running through the team that such setbacks become mere aberrations.
James Anderson starred on the final day with 5-65, his victims possessing 103 Test hundreds between them.
Anderson usually thrives at Lord's but before yesterday he'd never taken more than two wickets in the second innings here -- which suggests he has improved his bowling on the drier, less bowler-friendly surfaces that tend to prevail in the latter half of the game.
India were hobbled by injury and illness to key players during this match, but the way Strauss' men went about the business, once an advantage had been won, revealed their hunger for victory had not been dulled by their Ashes heroics in the winter.
This England side, following their first successful step towards the two-win cushion needed to take them top of the rankings, have the steely-eyed look of those with a mission to accomplish. (© Daily Telegraph, London)

'You are fake news!': Trump, reporter clash at press conference
During his first official press conference since late July, Donald Trump clashed with CNN's Jim Acosta over reporting on unsubstantiated reports that Russia had compromising information on the U.S. president-elect.
Trump ignored Acosta's repeated attempts to ask a question during the heated exchange in New York on Wednesday morning. The CNN reporter demanded that the president-elect answer his question, after Trump attacked his news organization during the press conference. Trump replied that CNN was "terrible," repeatedly telling him to be quiet.
As the shouting match escalated, Trump eventually snapped and said, "No, I'm not going to give you a question. You are fake news!"
The exchange came the day after CNN and several other news outlets reported that U.S. intelligence officials had briefed Trump and President Barack Obama on unsubstantiated claims that Moscow had compromising financial and personal information about the president-elect, including scandalous allegations of a sexual nature.
Trump vehemently refuted the reports calling them "fake news" and a "political witch hunt" in a series of tweets before his incoming press secretary, Sean Spicer, told reporters at the press conference on Wednesday, that the claims are "outrageous" and "irresponsible."
The president-elect also slammed Buzzfeed News earlier in the press conference for publishing the unsubstantiated documents in their entirety. Trump called Buzzfeed News a "failing pile of garbage" and suggested the website would suffer the consequences of reporting on the material.
CNN released a statement addressing the altercation between the president-elect and Acosta. The news organization attempted to distinguish its coverage of the reports from Buzzfeed News' decision to publish the contents of the document.
Statement from CNN: pic.twitter.com/WttyOCxQxp— CNN Communications (@CNNPR) January 11, 2017
Acosta tweeted during the press conference that his question, about whether any Trump associates contacted Russians, was actually answered when ABC's Cecilia Vega posed it on his behalf.
Fortunately ABC's Cecilia Vega asked my question about whether any Trump associates contacted Russians. Trump said no.— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) January 11, 2017

When Claire began experiencing heavy bleeding and bloating after the birth of her first child, doctors repeatedly wrote her symptoms off as post-natal depression. It was only when she insisted on surgery that she was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Here she explains her frustration, the importance of knowing your body, and why - for her - bananas are a symbol of hope...
I wanted to scream from the rooftops, "I have been telling you this for years, why didn't you listen?". The word 'cancer' is such a huge thing. After the initial diagnosis, my whole world crashed around me; I didn't know where to turn. That's when I found Target Ovarian Cancer.
Is anyone listening?
Something changed after the birth of my daughter. At the time I was told it was post-natal depression - just part of me getting used to being a new mum.
Soon afterwards I started collapsing and my periods stopped. Once again I was told that my body had changed and I was probably just depressed. Looking back, I had all the symptoms of ovarian cancer – the bloated tummy, needing to wee more, etc - but it was all just passed off as part of my pregnancy and post-pregnancy.
Gradually, my periods became heavier, and I was using maxi size incontinence pads every hour. At one point I was visiting my A&E department every 2-3 weeks for around 18 months.
Finally I was referred to gynaecology and diagnosed with a tumour. But because my CA125 had come back normal, they said it was just a cyst and I wouldn't need it removed. I tried to explain the heaviness of my periods but they didn't understand. My husband had to step in to ask for the operation to remove the mass. They said they would do the operation, but they were sure it wasn't cancer.
Although they had initially planned to do keyhole surgery, on the day of the operation they changed their mind and went in surgically.
They ended up removing three tumours - all very large. We referred to the biggest tumour as 'gerald'. Gerald was 10cm x 6cm and had two smaller 'brothers'.
After the operation I heard nothing for about a month. Eventually I got a letter for an appointment at the hospital. I went along on my own thinking it would just be a follow up. When the nurse asked me if I was on my own, and told me I would need someone with me, I knew it was cancer.
The consultant explained that my tumour was 'self-contained'. Twelve weeks later I had a hysterectomy.
Initially, you go through every emotion under the sun. I was also so overwhelmed with information. One day I was out walking with my husband, and I was thinking about my daughter living her life without me. Suddenly, the image of a banana popped into my head. It sounds strange, but I can honestly say that it stopped me from crying that day. After that, bananas became kind of a symbol of hope for me and my family. They were a reminder to us that no matter what you go through, there's always a ray of light.
I've become a total crafter since my diagnosis. I'd been so ill for so long that when I got better I didn't know what to do with the energy! My husband built me a craft room and now I make dragon eggs, wands, crystals - lots of magical things. I want to give my daughter the gift of imagination - making these things is one of the ways I do that.
When I got to the all-clear, we threw a Christmas party to celebrate – in September! I decorated the entire house and left it up for the rest of the year. I want my daughter to look back and remember that as the year her mum was crazy enough to celebrate Christmas for 4 months, rather than the year mummy was ill.
I want people to know that the CA125 test can be indicative of ovarian cancer – but not always. It wasn't elevated in me. I also want women to know that, just because the person in front of you has a doctorate of medicine, it doesn't mean they know more about your body than you do. If you know something is wrong, go back and question things. You know your body better than any doctor.

We have a rapidly growing program for the children each week. We all gather together as a church family at the start of our meetings and after about 15 minutes the children go out to their excellent age specific groups. We want this to be an interactive and engaging time for the kids to learn more about Jesus as he is revealed through the Bible.
Our teenagers stay in for the whole Sunday meeting. For the sermon the preacher will usually give them a script so they can follow the teaching from the Bible more clearly. We have a weekly youth Bible study group so they can explore what it means for them in their context. Socials and summer camps also play a part in their spiritual development.

* 2nd-quarter adj profit $1.58/share vs Street view $1.60
* Higher U.S. output offset by lower production in Colombia
* Shares drop nearly 3 pct, giving up past month's gain
July 30 (Reuters) - Occidental Petroleum Corp posted a smaller-than-expected quarterly profit on Tuesday, hurt by lower oil prices in the Middle East and North Africa, where the fourth-largest U.S. oil company is considering an exit.
Chief Executive Steve Chazen indicated in April that Occidental's Middle East operations might be put up for sale , and analysts also expect the California division to be spun off.
Chazen said on Tuesday that various options for reshaping the company were being evaluated by the board of directors.
"The board has really just been exposed to this in detail at one meeting, and so it will take a little while," he said on a conference call with analysts, adding that more information would be available toward the end of the year.
Shareholders ousted Executive Chairman Ray Irani in May, ending his more than two-decade run at the company and giving Chazen a free hand.
Occidental said oil and gas production volumes rose nearly 1 percent in the second quarter, to 772,000 barrels of oil equivalent (boe) per day, due to surging output in Texas' Permian Basin and California.
Volumes at the company's international operations declined due to insurgency in Colombia.
Occidental gets about two-thirds of its oil and gas output in the United States, and Chazen said second-half U.S. production would be 2 to 3 percent higher than the first-half's 262,000 boe per day.
The company's second-quarter net profit was $1.32 billion, or $1.64 per share, little changed from a year earlier. Adjusted profit was $1.58 per share, 2 cents below analysts' average estimate, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Revenue rose 3 percent to $5.96 billion.
Occidental said crude oil prices in the Middle East and North Africa fell 7 percent in the quarter, while U.S. prices rose 3 percent.
The company, which is aiming to reduce U.S. drilling costs by 15 percent this year, has cut them by 21 percent so far in 2013.
The Los Angeles-based company offered extensive details on its California operations on the conference call, feeding speculation that it may spin off that unit, which regularly faces tougher government scrutiny than elsewhere.
"We want to make sure that the California company has stable, solid cash flow going forward, and the regulatory environment will take a while to develop," Chazen said. "This is not North Dakota."
Occidental shares fell nearly 3 percent to $87.90 in late-morning trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Through Monday, the stock had risen 18 percent this year.

Modern Football is evolving at a rapid pace with the skillset required by each player to thrive at the top widening day-by-day. Apart from being in supreme physical shape, players are needed to play in multiple positions and have a strong football IQ.
The Indian Senior Women's National Team, currently in Nepal for the SAFF Women's Championship, is younger than it has ever been. The average age of the team is 21.4 years, and according to Head Coach Maymol Rocky, it can go a long way in the near future. "There is a real wave of optimism about this team," she told AIFF Media.
"In the last three months since we have been together, I have seen the team take some massive strides. I believe these players can become the best we have ever seen in this Country. I feel they can guide us move much higher in the World rankings," she said.
The mood in the camp is positive among this crop of youngsters. "It's not that it will take time with these players to try out different stuff. They are ready to do anything, always willing to learn," Maymol certified.
Goalkeeper Aditi Chauhan, who at just 26 is the second-oldest member in the 20-member squad stated the receptive nature of the players is a "standout quality".
"As a senior player, it's good to have a group of young girls who want to learn from the experience and knowledge which we share with them. They've made it really easy for me, and other senior players!" she expressed.
With a youthful core at its centre, the team is physically robust, and can match up to any opposition. "This batch can play the 90 minutes without tiring, and if needed, even the extra 30," she opined.
"Better speed, better reflexes, better stamina – that's what we are stressing on. It allows us to defend with more numbers, and move the ball faster in attack," Maymol explained.
A vital part of the setup, the two physiotherapists Priyanka Bodkhe and Shruti Nambiar said that having younger players in the team has other advantages as well, especially when it comes to injuries as well as capacity building.
"The injury history of these young girls are minimal. Henceforth, they respond comparatively faster to increasing training loads. Their recovery process is faster," Priyanka maintained.
Shruti added: "Muscles adapt better to any stimulus presented during training. This is an advantage for young athletes. It eventually enables enhanced performance."

The one thing I hate most about the NWO is that it doesn't emphasize or value true toughness. But rather, it realize on an endless ream of mind games mind games and more mind games. And the mind games never stop. And there are deceptions, and making the target feel guilty all of the time. It's like we are supposed to feel they are tough because of their persistence and the fact that they constantly beat you down and never let you feel like you're getting anywhere. For example, the guy saying "coward", when it's just the usual types harassing targets. I'm sure glad I didn't get mad enough to do something to that guy, because I don't feel it's worth it, and they get evidence that the target is mentally ill. In reality, the system is trying to hide their provocations at all times, and when exposed, they go into denial or tow the NWO party line that we're simply crazy or that we can't win anyways, like we can't beat them.
I really don't see them as having won anything. Really, where is the toughness? And it would be different if all the higher-ups and lower level perps had a name tag that said "Hi, I am a perp working for a corrupt highly illegal system of covert warfare" followed by their name. And all they can do is denial they exist and keep calling the target names.
And they aren't going to be brainwashing me into thinking they are tougher than I or that I have lost, because it's only because of their bombardment of mindgames with many players that enables them to make the target think their system is tough. Yeah, it's damaging and oppressive and omniscient, but they are still not tough. I'd love to see them wear name tags that explains they are one of many people in on covert warfare. I know they are going to play mind games with me in response to this comment, but mind games do not equal truth. Man, when the hell are they going to get it through their thick skulls?
Their mind games amount to this: the target calls them cowards, so they have a guy come out and call target a coward. But the targets assertion is 100% correct while the system's response is 0% correct and merely a mind game to piss the target off. The verdict: THEY'VE WON!!! YES THEY ARE SO UNBEATABLE I BETTER GIVE UP AND GROVEL AT THEIR FEET AND BEG THEM TO LEAVE ME ALONE!!! PLEASE, YOU GODS ON HIGH!!! YOU ARE SO SMART AND TOUGH BECAUSE YOU HAVE INTEL ON ME AND YOU SEND OUT ASSHOLES WHO NEED A BLACK EYE AND A GOOD SPANKING TO HARASS ME OH YOU ARE SO GOOD PERPS I HOPE YOU DON'T SMITE ME!!! PLEASE, I'LL ACCEPT ANY THING YOU GIVE ME!!! I'M SORRYYYYY!!! AGGGGGJHJHHHHHH!
I was watching Bruce Almighty, and this was reflected in Jim Carrey's character, where he seems like he is a perp challenging the perps and telling them to "smite him". And Morgan Freeman's character tells him to take over being "God" for a week and then see how easy it is. Note this is the perps telling the target via psy-ops that their job is not easy. Oh, sorry perps!! Anyways, it's interesting how Freeman tells Carrey that "you can never tell anyone you're God", which means the TI can never tell the general population he or she is a TI. And the perps have such a hard job!! Oh let's pity them. And of course, getting Morgan Freeman to play a psy-op role... I wonder why? Hmmm... oh yeah, his step granddaughter. That's why. The perps who work so hard are selling him on a clean PR slate. BECACUSE THEIR JOB IS SO HARD PLEASE TARGETS UNDERSTAND THAT PERPS HAVE A HARD JOB WITH PSYOPS AND KEEPING THE TARGET DOWN PLEASE HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE A PERP MANAGING ALL THESE TARGETS AND THEN CRYING ABOUT IT IN A MOVIE SCRIPT!! Oh but they have no problem sending out cheap messy idiots to do psy-ops. Poor perps!!! I could never do their job.
I've always believed we should just harvest homeless people for their organized. They have no place in our civilized world.
