text: Hollywood Guard honors one of the original "Killer B's" during a celebration of life for Ed Bellion Published June 17, 2021 By by Lt. Col. Chris Lowe 146th Airlift Wing CHANNEL ISLANDS AIR NATIONAL GUARD STATION, Port Hueneme, Calif. -- On the anniversary of the D-Day invasion of the beaches of Normandy, a setting aided by providence, 146th Airlift Wing hosted current and former members of the unit for a memorial service honoring the life, legacy, and career of Col. Ed Bellion. Coordinated through the 146th Wing Association, a volunteer force composed of active and alumni who belonged to the wing, the memorial service drew many to share memories and stories of a truly beloved man. The event took place inside Heritage Plaza, which, coincidentally was established with the assistance of Bellion, was now decorated with displays and mementos of affection from his career. Featuring his famous cartoon drawings, photos during his infamous emcee duties, and treasured keepsakes from his countless deployments and travels worldwide. Bellion, a C-130 pilot who had an illustrious and dutiful career serving 27 years with 146th Airlift Wing, was promoted to the rank of Col. serving as the wing's vice commander until his "retirement." For most, retirement might consist of days relaxing at home or spending hours devoted to the simpler things in life. However, this wasn't always the case with Bellion. In his retirement, Bellion became an active member of the 146th Wing Association (formerly the 146th Alumni Association), where he played a vital role for 20 years, continuing to serve the "Hollywood Guard" until his final days. Bellion's passion for the wing lead him to develop many programs that raised money for airman relief funds, education scholarships, and holiday financial relief for struggling airmen and community members alike. During the ceremony, several of Bellion's closest friends rose to speak of their fond memories of him and of the selfless contributions he made for others around him. Many acknowledged that Bellion could not have done as much as he did without the support of his lovely wife, Helena Bellion, who was also in attendance. In a decisive moment during the ceremony, retired Brig. Gen. Dan Pemberton, a former commander for the wing and close friend, read a letter aloud to the crowd that was written by Bellion's twin brother Robert. During the reading, Pemberton delivered a powerful favorite saying of Bellion's, surmising his service in one beautiful sentence that Pemberton says described him perfectly. "It's not the years in your life that matters, but the life in your years," said Pemberton. According to retired Lt. Col. Bob Kramer, who emceed during the ceremony, Bellion's tenure at the wing was filled with highlights and countless years of volunteerism. Kramer also shared the charismatic origins of the "Killer B's," an infamous group of renowned pilots from the 146th Airlift Wing that included Ed Bellion, Tom Bellion, Doug Broadhurst, Ron Boll, and Bob Kramer. Based on the group's last names' first letter beginning with the letter "B," the moniker was later revised to include first names Kramer later explains. Just then, retired Col. Paul Hargrove, another former commander of the 146th gives out a laugh filled retort from the crowd. "Let's not forget our other member, Col. Clyde BO-heny!" The joke lands nicely, and the crowd laughs. Col. Clyde "Bo-Heny's" real last name is Doheney. If you didn't know before, it's clear now, despite whatever letter your name started with, no one was excluded from Bellion's friendship. It's another example of Bellion's impact on the wing shining through. Midway through the next part of Kramer's speech, he would be beautifully interrupted by a C-130 flyover. Soon after, a flying group known as the Condors, piloting World War II aircraft led by 146th alumni, retired Chief Master Sgt. Chris Rushing followed. Delivering a flyover complete with the missing man formation honoring Bellion's absence. Later, retired Senior Master Sgt. Erin McPherson performed an extraordinary rendition of Frank Sinatra's "My Way." Complete with revised lyrics to include Bellion's name, highlighting how he did indeed do everything "his way." Coupled with McPherson's vocal tributes, the wing's Honor Guard provided a flag-folding ceremony during the 562nd Air National Guard Band of the West Coast's Superintendent, Senior Master Sgt. Gerald Lockwood's chilling performance of Taps. Retired Chief Master Sgt. Rick Onsgard, a former Command Chief for the wing and acting Wing Association President, fought back his tears as he addressed the crowd at the podium during his speech. "Ed was always there in any situation, good or bad, and I'd follow him anywhere. Ed epitomized the guard mantra of mission first and family always. As we pay our final respects to a dear friend and fellow service member, I can't help but think he's sitting up there, somewhere, on a cloud high above Channel Islands. He's looking down at the Hollywood Guard, smiling upon us all, as he always did – his way. Onsgard, a close friend of Bellion, says as the crowd began to mingle, he was reminded of just how special Bellion was to everyone that knew him. "Ed, I wish you were here, brother. But something tells me – you are," said Onsgard.

MAN Energy Solutions Wins Order for Efficient HyProp ECO System
[By: MAN Energy Solutions]
Chinese, state-owned China Merchants Jinling Shipyard (CMJL) subsidiary, Dingheng shipyard, has ordered an integrated HyProp ECO propulsion solution from MAN Energy Solutions in connection with the building of 4 × dual-fuel 6,600-dwt, stainless-steel, parcel chemical-tankers for Hamburg-based tanker operator, John T. Essberger. The order includes options for an additional four vessels while the confirmed units are scheduled for delivery from mid-2023.
MAN Energy Solutions' scope of supply for each shipset certified by Finnish/Swedish 1A ice class comprises:
- MAN 6L35/44DF diesel/gas-electric propulsion system, including GVU and plant equipment
- Renk gearbox RSVL-1100 including one primary-PTO/PTH/PTI
- MAN Alpha CP propulsion system including AT 3000 propulsion controls
- MAN HyProp ECO - AKA integrated electric system consisting of shaft machine, frequency converter, bow-thruster motor and related AC switchboard enabling tailored modes of operation.
MAN Energy Solutions will provide the solution in association with Aspin Kemp & Associates (AKA), in which it has a 40% stake. AKA specialises in power supply, energy management and drive systems for marine applications.
Johan J. Isaksen, Director Ship Management, John T. Essberger, said: "As a pioneer of purpose-built parcel tankers, our business is built upon continuous investment in the business and maintaining a state-of-the-art fleet, which is what this order represents.
Dejan Golub, New Building Manager, John T. Essberger, said: "This MAN propulsion system allows for a straightforward system integration that will make these newbuildings among the most efficient and low-emission in their class."
Lex Nijsen, Vice President and Head of Marine Europe, MAN Energy Solutions, said: "We worked hard to build the case that a fully-integrated MAN solution built around the MAN HyPropECO system would better fulfill the owner's requirements in terms of increasing energy efficiency and are very glad to have won this order. The scope of supply also matches MAN Energy Solutions' desire to increasingly become a supplier of complete solutions."
Jason Aspin, CEO Aspin Kemp & Associates, said "We are very excited that the client, Essberger, has chosen this integrated solution developed though an early supplier involvement and a collaborative design effort, leading to higher efficiency and lower emissions, which are cornerstones of AKA's design philosophy."
Project background
The order pursues a fleet renewal with newbuilds that can increase energy efficiency by 30%. The new ships will be operated by E&S Tankers, a joint venture between Essberger and Stolt Nielsen. In 2020, John T. Essberger announced plans to invest significantly in a new fleet of modern ships to trade within their core trades: Northwest Europe, Baltic and the Mediterranean.
System characteristics
The Essberger HyProp ECO system offers a tailor-made solution where the electric equipment focuses on efficiency and flexibilty. Core components, like the converter unit, are designed to be used in multiple ways, such as for operating the PTO when the propeller runs on the combinator curve, but also to drive the bow-thruster or to supply the ship with shore-power. The system also offers an emergency propulsion mode with the same converter used as PTH starter. This intelligent layout enables all components to be kept as small as possible. Similarly, integrated bypasses avoid losses in the power electronics when not in use.
The German Maritime Energy Transition
The new vessels will be optimised in terms of hull design and equipment, resulting in a significantly improved energy efficiency of at least 30% and will have the ability to use a shore-power connection during cargo operations.
The newbuilding project is being subsidised by the German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure as part of the implementation of the German government's Mobility and Fuel Strategy (MKS).

Astellia Online is a fantasy MMORPG looking to "return the genre to its roots", according to the description in its bombastic official trailer below. That means the luscious landscapes, massive monsters, and perilous perambulations around an epic, lore-rich world that you'd expect from the likes of Final Fantasy XIV or World of Warcraft.
Astellians – the characters you and other players will control – are able to summon mythical creatures called Astels into battle. Astels are represented as cards, ranging in type and class, and can be leveled up to increase their battle power. You can also pick from five classes of Astellian – Archer, Warrior, Mage, Scholar, or Rogue – and embark on a range of activity types. Astellia features an open world to traverse, as well as small-scale four-person dungeons, larger 20-person raids, and instanced PvP.
Having launched several months ago to much excitement in South Korea, Astellia is now gearing up for its release into the Western market. It's had one closed beta so far, with a second due to kick off next week – and we at PCGamesN are excited to offer you a chance to get involved. 2,000 chances, in fact – we have 2,000 access keys to give away.
Note that not all aspects of Astellia are up for testing in CBT-2. During this test, you'll be able to participate in large-scale PvPvE within a region called Avalon, explore the cash shop and loyalty systems, and initial revisions to the mana and progressions systems.
CBT-2 will start at July 30 at midnight Pacific time (0800 BST) and run until August 6, 0800 Pacific (1600 BST). If you're a little late to this post, you'll be able to claim an access code until the beta closes – unless all 2,000 are claimed first, of course. First come, first served!

In the narrative psychology class which I am taking this semester, I read a paper written by Grace Cho and also went through the exhibition together with the class. I didn't expect to encounter anything about Korean War in the class, so it was rather surprising and the subject particularly was engaging.
Korean War - what Korean themselves call Yook-i-o(6-2-5, June 25th) - is a subject that Koreans recognize quite frequently; the very presence of another government in the peninsular reminds them of the past conflict within the country. So when I realized that it was hypocognized war in US, I found it very peculiar. At one point I wondered why US would even care; is it their entitlement as a "police country" to nudge into every business of every country? Indeed they took part in the war just like many other countries including China, Soviet Union, Turkey, etc, but as far as I know none of others put an extra effort to remind themselves of a war in some other far away territory.
Then I thought perhaps that is not the point. It is not the war itself but those who left Korea during or after the war to America that we were talking about. Then it became a slightly different story. Indeed their stories are hypo-cognized even in Korea because they don't physically exist, and people forget those who don't exist in their boundary. After the war there had been plenty of survivors to pay attention to (although I am not sure whether it was done correctly) and too many buildings to restore. In short, people were too busy taking care of what should be done in front of their eyes.
Personally I am not familiar with their narratives for sure. My parents, grandparents, and many of the school teachers went through the post-war period in which constant propaganda of anti-communism and decades of dictatorship ruled. They talked about the military training they had to take in high school and political movement against government, as if wanted to remind the new generation of the long-gone legacy.But I had not thought of leaving the country as an option; I simply had not known - or heard of - those who left.
The video of a woman's narration added different sensation from what I had known as "the 625 narrative". It is also different from other second-generation immigrants' narrative of a struggle to find their cultural and self identity. For me it was a discovery of a new yet somehow familiar narrative.
I found the method very interesting. By speaking and videotaping, the narrator put more information on the contents which would not have been achievable in written words, including her accent, emotional reactions(gradually increasing?), etc. By manipulating the surrounding - as it was originally part of her performance - she created the environment she desired and thought would be more engaging.
Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to regard such an important history in a perspective I had not thought of. This indeed had enlarged my understanding of Korean War.

France today eased part of the travel ban from England, a move sparked by the discovery of a rapidly spreading version of the coronavirus in the UK.
France was among the approximately 50 countries that imposed travel restrictions with the United Kingdom due to concerns about that variant (see related news on CIDRAP). The French travel ban has created a huge reserve of trucks waiting to board ferries to France in the port of Dover.
Under the agreement with the British government, truck drivers, French citizens and British citizens living in France are allowed to travel to France from England if they had less than 72 hours before taking a negative test for coronavirus, reports the BBC. National Health Service staff has been deployed in the port to test thousands of truck drivers.
The tests that are applied are fast side flow tests, which can return results in 30 minutes. England's public health said today that tests could reveal a variant under investigation (VUI) 202012/01, which has been spreading rapidly in the south-east and east of England in recent weeks and which is believed to be more transferable.
England today reported 39,237 new cases of COVID-19, which is a record high, according to government data. The number of new infections recorded in the past 7 days is 61% higher than the previous week. Concerns over the new variant and an increase in the number of cases in the country have prompted British health officials to impose level 4 restrictions – the strictest national measures against coronavirus – on additional regions in the East and South East of England, according to the BBC.
Continuous increase in global cases, deaths
In its Sunday epidemiological update COVID-19, released yesterday, the World Health Organization (WHO) highlighted the identification of VUI 202012/01 in England, noting that it can spread faster than other strains. The WHO said that an investigation is underway to determine whether the variant causes a more serious infection or affects the antibody response or the effectiveness of the vaccine.
The WHO weekly report also showed that global cases of COVID-19 and mortality continued to rise, climbing 6% and 4%, respectively, during the week ending December 20th. The American region reported the largest share of new infections, with more than 2.3 million, while Europe reported the highest number of new deaths (36,286).
Although most countries in the region were locked in some form during the Christmas and New Year holidays, Europe again saw a small increase (2%) in COVID-19 cases from the previous week, after a few weeks of decline in November. More than a third of all new European cases came from Turkey, Russia and Germany. Italy reported the most deaths from COVID-19 during the week, at 4,411.
Although new cases in America are mostly triggered by the United States, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and Canada also contribute to a significant number of new infections. And Argentina and Panama saw a 21% and 31% increase in new cases over the past week, respectively.
The region that has sharply increased the number of new COVID cases and deaths over the past week is Africa, which has seen a 27% increase in new cases and a 34% increase in virus-related deaths. South Africa reported the most new cases in the region, 59,512. The country has also discovered a new variant of the coronavirus that is believed to be more transmissible. The South African wave is concentrated in four provinces – Gauteng, Western Cape, Eastern Cape and KwaZulu Natal – and has spurred new orders to stay at home.
Other African countries reporting an increase in new COVID-19 cases are Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda.

Vornado-managed REIT Alexander's announced that it has completed a $252.5 million refinancing of its 609,000 s/f Rego Park II shopping center in Queens.
The interest-only loan is at LIBOR plus 1.35%, currently 3.77%, and matures in December 2025.
The proceeds of the new loan were used to repay the existing loan of the same amount, which bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.85% and was scheduled to mature in January 2019.
Alexander's continued to hold a $195.7 million participation in the $252.5 million loan at LIBOR plus 1.35%. The participation in the previous loan earned interest at LIBOR plus 1.60%.
Built in 2010, the three-story shopping center at 61-35 Junction Boulevard is topped by a 24-story, 314-unit residential tower.
Anchored by a 145,000 s/f Costco supermarket, and a 133,000 s/f Kohl's department store, the mall is nearly fully occupied by a roster of tenants that includes Century 21, Aldi's discount supermarket and Old Navy.
The new loan was provided by Bank of China, according to the Commercial Observer.

Mia sez…
OK — the short version of the story is:
It took me FOREVER to get to Prague from Berlin and since i didn't have a hostel, i toted around my massive bag for hours trying to find one. finally one girl at a hostel called around for me and got me one (on the other side of town) so i sorted out the trams and then the metro and then walked back and forth looking for #7 building. it went from 6 to 8a. then 1/2 a block later came 7.. what?! but finally i got there, really nice hostel and collapsed in my room.
there were three dutch guys who invited me out to dinner with them so i went and it was really fun. they speak english but it's really funny because sometimes one would try to explain something to me and we'd all be sitting there trying to figure out what he was saying. finally, he'd turn to his friends and explain it in rapid, frustrated dutch and they'd all go "OHHHH!" and then all turn to me and try to help explain the original story. kept me in fits all night. we enjoyed a couple beers in the garden back at the hostel and then they were ready for a late night out and i was ready for bed! but this morning i met the other 2 girls in the room, scots again! and we're meeting up for dinner later tonight.
so the original plan was that i was supposed to go to vienna today and i just couldn't bear another "short" stop. also i had hardly seen any of prague! so i just decided to ditch that part of the plan. it sucks but i can get a train right to budapest from here tomorrow morning and i got another night in the hostel. looks like vienna is one the itinerary for the next huge trip around europe. (whenever that'll be) but anyway. i'm enjoying prague. the euro is pretty strong here but it's scary when you get a bill and it says "3852 crowns" and i'm like, ahh! i had a coffee and a sandwich! but when i realize it's 5 euro or something, it's alright. the buildings are really beautiful here. i've basically just been walking around. there's enough to look at without even going inside places.
i'm off to see the John Lennon wall and the prague castle. maybe i'll sit myself down and have some lunch in a bit. otherwise, i miss you and everyone. i'm totally zonked already from lugging this bag around and i have 2 more weeks to go. i think i'll definitely be ready to come home and crash.
write again when i can.
p.s. i am sitting here in this random czech internet cafe and they are playing some song that keeps saying,
"MICHAELA, ayyyy MICHAELA!" it's hilarious.

Indian weightlifters seem to be on golden run at the CWG 2018. After Miraba Chanu bagged India's first Gold medal, it was the turn of weightlifter Sanjita Chanu to do the nation proud . She won her second successive Commonwealth Games gold medal, in Gold Coast, Australia.
The 24-year-old Manipur lass, participating in the 53kg category, smashed the Games record in snatch and in the process gave India its second gold medal from weightlifting.
Sanjita's total lift was 192kg (84kg+108).
Sanjita had bagged Gold at the Glasgow CWG 2014 in the 48 kg category.
Former India cricketer and explosive opener Virender Sewag hailed the effort in his tweet
Bhartiya Naari Sab par Bhaari. One more Gold. Congratulations #SanjitaChanu for winning our second gold in #GC2018Weightlifting in the women's 53kg category. #CWG2018
Her second CWG gold after the 48kg one in Glasgow. Proud of you champion. pic.twitter.com/Xnms7T6Byz

President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov on Monday during a working meeting with the heads of the agro-industrial complex gave instructions on the introduction of totalisator betting in order to attract the interest of horse racing fans in the new season.
According to TDH news agency's report, the Head of State also instructed to carry out work on organizing various equestrian competitions, studying the experience of foreign countries in this area, as well as stimulating young specialists.
Turkmen President added that it is necessary to ensure the proper maintenance of equestrian complexes and their regular repair, increase the profit of these complexes, conduct an analysis to identify additional opportunities and prepare relevant proposals.
In this regard, the Head of State stressed the appropriateness of introducing totalizator betting in horse races using the capabilities of the digital system, given the great interest of the local people in the sport.
This will contribute to an increase in the number of fans of Akhal-Teke horses and an increase in interest in Turkmen equestrian sports abroad, and domestic fans in horse racing, Turkmen President noted and gave relevant instructions in this direction to the officials.

But we've made more progress in the treatment of some cancers than others.
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL), the most common type of leukaemia diagnosed in children, has particularly high survival. In fact, thanks to major advances in treatment, more than 9 in 10 children in the UK with ALL now survive for at least 5 years, compared with around 7 in 10 in the 1980s.
By the early 2000s survival for children with this cancer type had already seen huge improvements. However, outcomes for children and young people who relapsed has remained static.
At the time, Vaskar Saha, based at the University of Manchester, was researching ways to improve treatment options for those that had relapsed.
Approximately 176 miles North, in East Kilbride, Katie Currie was diagnosed with ALL when she was just 3 years old. Following successful treatment, in 2008, her cancer came back. She was put onto a trial, led by Saha, for a chemotherapy drug known as mitoxantrone.
In an unusual turn of events, the results of mitoxantrone turned out to be so effective that eventually all the children who were recruited for the trial were put on the drug.
The ALLR3 trial
"At that time, there was really no straightforward standard pathway for treating children with relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. But there were many new things happening in the research" explains Saha, now Head of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology at the Tata Medical Center, Kolkata.
"One important thing was the discovery that you could monitor the response to treatment using molecular tools, what we call minimal residual disease (MRD), where you can detect one in 10,000 cells."
And at the same time as MRD was being developed, paediatric oncologists worldwide were beginning to work together. "Scientists across Europe, Australia and New Zealand put together a study, which was testing whether MRD could actually tell us whether one drug was going to do better than another."
The international team set up a trial, known as ALLR3, comparing idarubicin, a chemotherapy treatment which was the standard of care for relapsed ALL, to mitoxantrone, which had shown promise in the lab.
216 children and young people took part in this trial and were split into 2 groups who were given either idarubicin or mitoxantrone, alongside other standard chemotherapy drugs.
"We took it day by day, especially after she relapsed," recalls Katie's Dad Neil. "When the cancer came back, you fear everything, but we spoke to the team about the trial and put complete faith in them."
3 years on from the treatment, the researchers looked at the early results to see how the treatment was working.
What happened next was something that had never been seen in a trial for childhood ALL.
A surprising set of results
The study evaluated the number of children whose leukaemia hadn't got worse over the 3 years since treatment (known as progression free survival). Results showed that over 6 out of 10 children (64.6%) who had mitoxantrone, compared to less than 4 out of 10 children (35.9%) who had idarubicin, had cancers that hadn't grown at all in the timeframe.
The study also found that the number of children alive 3 years after treatment, regardless of whether their cancer had grown or not, was far higher in the group on mitoxantrone compared to idarubicin (known as overall survival).
"I kind of knew that the arms were moving apart in terms of survival outcomes," says Saha. "But then I got a call from Professor Mike Stevens, from Bristol University who was the chairALLR3 and he said, 'You need to close the randomisation as there is a significant difference in outcome between the two drugs.'"
The randomisation arms of the trial were halted early, and from then on, all the children who were originally on idarubicin were transferred to mitoxantrone.
A difference in outcomes like that had never been reported before. It took all of us by surprise.
– Vaskar Saha, lead researcher on the mitoxantrone trial
Interestingly, the two drugs showed no difference in minimal residual disease, which is what the experts were initially expecting to see. "It showed very clearly that you can't use MRD as a surrogate marker for outcome, which impacted the design of similar trials subsequent to these results."
The real life impact
Katie thinks back to the period of her diagnosis. "I was so young when I was diagnosed that I don't remember much from then, but I do remember being in hospital and I remember the nurses. It is surreal to think about what I went through then and how far I have come."
Thanks to the trial headed by Saha, Katie is embarking on her career in medicine, starting child health nursing at university.
I knew I wanted to do something in medicine after what had happened to me. By doing this, I really want to say thank you for the help I had, and I am passionate about nursing.
– Katie
When she got her Higher exam results, she was delighted to be offered a place on a course at Edinburgh Napier University. "I finished school in 2020 but it was a slightly difficult time then as I was on the list for shielding due to COVID-19, so I deferred a year before starting uni. I had a year out and went to college to get another qualification – an HNC in Healthcare."
Katie started her course in September last year, and despite having to continue to shield at the beginning of her course, is really enjoying her time there. "I have been on two placements already and I think that my own experience has really helped me with my understanding with patients."
"Thinking back to those days of Katie's treatment and relapse when she was so young, it is just amazing to be here now and for her to be away in Edinburgh following her dreams," says Neil.
"We believed that, with the clinical trial Katie had the best chance of recovery. Without these trials, amazing new treatments may never be found. Mitoxantrone probably saved Katie's life," adds Mum Siobhan.
Saha recalls the extraordinary impact this study also had on the research landscape. "This publication really took the whole field forward in terms of what drugs you could use to treat childhood ALL. Even now, 20 years on, the backbone of the chemotherapy that we used in the trial is being modified and used by other people."
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Each year in the UK, around 4,200 children and young people are diagnosed with cancer**. We're determined to overcome the challenges holding back progress, to help more 0-24-year-olds with cancer survive with a good quality of life. We're working to develop a strong, long-lasting community of children's and young people's cancer researchers and providing the tools and infrastructure this community needs to accelerate progress.

A BBC Panorama investigation has claimed that TikTok is slow to act against adults who engage children in sexually explicit conversations, despite such conversations being flagged by users.
The allegations follow similar claims made last year by a previous BBC investigation, suggesting that the social media company is still failing to address the perception that its network facilitates child predators.
Working with a 23-year-old woman who produces TikTok videos for an internet search company, the investigative programme created a mock account of a 14-year-old girl. Pictures of the 23-year-old were edited to make her look younger, while her posts were given hashtags (e.g. "#schoollife") to indicate that she was under the age of consent.
Her TikTok account was soon followed by a number of older men, with a 34-year-old sending her a sexually explicit message, even after the women had told him she was 14.
The 'girl' then reported the user and his comments to TikTok. However, the social media company took action only after BBC Panorama contacted it and provided details of its investigation, some four days after the initial report.
Tiktok's initial response to BBC Panorama was the following: "A report about a user's account or comments will not generally trigger a review of direct messages".
The social media company also explained that, because the report "was against the account in general, not the specific direct messages," no action was taken.
But following the completion of BBC Panorama's investigation, TikTok told the BBC that two accounts–as well as the devices used with them–have been permanently banned.
TikTok has also told me it's working "continuously to make TikTok a hostile environment for predatory behaviour." A spokesperson for the company says it's the only platform that disables direct messaging for under-16s, that it allows direct messages between people over-16 only when they agree to follow each other, and that it prohibits the sharing of images and videos via direct messaging, regardless of age.
"We are already reviewing how to enhance the way we review user reports," the spokesperson adds. "There is no such thing as 'job done' when it comes to protecting teenagers from online harms. That is why we are working with industry experts, NGOs and online safety specialists, as well as investing in our technology, processes and people, to continuously strengthen safety on TikTok."
Moderation At A Distance
Due to be broadcast in the UK on BBC One, the episode of BBC Panorama also sees investigators speak to a former 'content moderator' who worked at TikTok's London office. His job was to ensure that users abided by TikTok's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.
He says that, during his time at the company, TikTok's Chinese headquarters made key decisions regarding content moderation, leaving him and his colleagues largely powerless to address problems such as sexual predation.
He told BBC Panorama, "It felt like not very much was being done to protect people. Beijing were hesitant to suspend accounts or take stronger action on users who were being abusive. They would pretty much only ever get a temporary ban of some form, like a week or something."
He also says that he and moderators on his team didn't have the ability to ban accounts, and that they'd have to ask TikTok's Beijing office for permission to permanently suspend profiles.
In March, TikTok announced it would be transitioning away from using moderation staff based in Beijing. The company told BBC Panorama it invests "heavily in automated moderation." It also says it has an "ever growing expert team" of more than 10,000 moderators in 20 countries, "who review and take action against content and accounts that violate" its policies.
Feedback Loop
The former content moderator also told BBC Panorama that, when he was working at TikTok, the company's algorithms effectively supplied sexual predators with suggestive content.
"The algorithm will feed you what you interact with so if you're looking at a lot of kids dancing sexually, and you interact with that, it's going to give you more kids dancing sexually," he said.
To test this claim, BBC Panorama set up another fictitious account, this time for a 36-year-old man. Whenever presented with images of young girls in school uniform, 'the man' liked them and watched videos to the end.
Within half an hour, Panorama reports that his "For You" page was filled with images of under-age teens.
TikTok states that its Community Guidelines make it clear that it doesn't allow the sexualisation of minors on its platform, with sexualised content being blocked from appearing in the For You feed. "We use a combination of technology and moderation teams to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines," its spokesperson adds.
It's also worth pointing out that TikTok isn't necessarily a special case in this respect. A similar complaint can be made against other social media platforms, with YouTube being another network that has been found to feed potentially provocative content to possible predators. This is a very hard problem to solve, since even if platforms remove tags from videos, algorithms tend to recommend videos which have been liked together.
Still, if social media companies can become more proactive in responding to complaints and removing potentially problematic accounts (or content), it's a problem that may be eased to a significant extent. But with social media use expanding rapidly in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, users–and the parents of users–will also need to remain vigilant.

I'm in the Room is the droll, witty story about Allen Johnson, a mostly invisible young man from a mostly invisible family in a mostly invisible town. It isn't that these people and places are incapable of being seen; it's only that no one seems to notice them. Allen is determined to break through that fog. As a result, Allen spends a good part of his life trying to become visible, buying into the notion that it is important for each of us to make our mark, to shine forth on the stage of life, to change the world in some very discernable way.
In his youth, Allen Johnson engages in the fantasies that all boys do, certain that fame and glory await him on the playing fields of sports. His daydreams are grandiose and impossible, but that doesn't matter. He believes, as all boys do, that such achievements are his destiny. He is certain he will redefine all sports records before he is twelve. He will, of course, be the most visible person around. His quite unremarkable skill set in sports, unfortunately, prevents his strategy from succeeding, frustrating poor Allen.
As an adolescent, Allen's dreams of prominence take on an entirely different focus. Instead of conquering hero dreams, he now dreams of being seen by pretty girls and by the "in crowd" in his high school that he sees as both wonderfully visible and perfectly happy. He cannot fathom why he is so awkward and gangly, while those kids who sit at the "cool table" seem so self-confident. Allen is unaware that they are, for the most part, just as insecure and uncomfortable as he and all other teens are. It would not matter if he did know, for his continuing imperceptibility is a consternation to him.
Failing in his attempts to garner the attention of the most popular girl in school, or, for that matter, of pretty much anyone in his school, Allen decides the best method for becoming visible is to become a college student, first at the community college, then at the university, certain that his erudition, average though it may be, and his choice of adopting a Bohemian lifestyle will allow him to stand out from the hordes of other above average, carefully non-conformist young people attending college. Unfortunately, still no one sees Allen Johnson. Despite living in the Halcyon days of being a college student, Allen continues to be unfulfilled and vexed.
When Allen is in his mid-twenties, he discovers one day that he has become the very antithesis of what he hoped to be. He works in a non-descript cubicle, lives in a tiny house in a subdivision of identical tiny houses near a small, invisible city in the Midwest, and has a wife and child whom he struggles to find time to see. In a final attempt to break out, Allen decides he must disrupt the pattern and return to college to distinguish himself as a master's student and a teaching assistant, determined to use the bright light of the academic life to shine forth. This is the point at which Allen Johnson must ultimately devolve in order to emerge as the man who has it all: happiness.
I'm in the Room has a light touch of philosophy, although the reader will certainly not need any background in the field to enjoy the read. The narrative is a trail of choices juxtaposed against reality, until our protagonist is ready to find fulfillment. At 56,000 words, it is a fun book with just the right touch of substance to it.

Failed alcohol tax sets an example for government
Government officials give the same excuse whenever they want to raise taxes. They say the money will go into public works or social services. The desired outcome for tax increases is a measurable benefit to the majority at a small expense to the minority. But then there's the reality of the situation, which is entirely different from the optimism behind tax hikes.
In 1990, the Florida Legislature passed a 3.3 percent tax on alcoholic beverages sold by the glass in bars and restaurants. According to the Lakeland Ledger, the tax money was supposed to go into a trust fund that supported a program "designed to prevent children and teens from developing substance abuse problems." As well intended as that sounds, this was not to be the case.
The 21,646 Florida businesses affected by the tax complained. This is not to say it cost the businesses money – they just raised prices on customers to pay for it, as businesses always do.
However, the tax was still a burden due to the amount of time it took to calculate charges on a per-drink basis. It was "an expensive and cumbersome tax to collect," according to Carol Dover, president of the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association.
In fact, the tax was so expensive, it cost more to collect than the state would ever see in revenue – a phenomenon in economics addressed by the principle of a Laffer Curve.
In 2004, the Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability, an independent auditing organization that services the Legislature, recommended to Florida's state government that the tax should be "repealed or modified."
On July 1, 2007, according to the Ledger, the tax and the fund it benefited will be canceled. The state of Florida will continue to fund 95 percent of the existing program from other money.
A repeal won't have much effect on the substance abuse prevention program the tax was originally intended to fund. Of the $50 million in revenue Florida received from the tax, only $12.5 million went to the program. After the tax is repealed, the state of Florida will still be the beneficiary of more alcohol tax money than 48 other states.
Certainly the tax had helpful intentions, but it failed. Frankly, "good intentions" are not a good way to govern. This is not to say that substance abuse prevention programs should not be funded. But they shouldn't be funded by an organization – in this case, the government – which has a 75 percent overhead cost that taxpayers pay for.
Not to be pretentious, but there are more efficient ways to do things.

Signs of toxicity of the eighth cranial nerve in a patient receiving streptomycin who also had persistent hypotension after cardiac surgery led to investigation of the effects of streptomycin and other antibiotic agents on cardiac function. In 18 open chest dogs, there was a dose-dependent depression of cardiovascular function as a result of the intravenous administration of streptomycin in doses of 2.5, 10 and 40 mg/kg. Similar depressions were demonstrated after administration of tetracycline, kanamycin, vancomycin, erythromycin and colymycin. In 4 intact dogs given streptomycin, 2 g intramuscularly, cardiac output decreased 26 percent and mean arterial pressure decreased 22 percent 1 hour after administration. The average level of streptomycin in the blood at 1 hour was 35 μg/ml, within the usual therapeutic range for patients. In the isolated perfused cat heart, streptomycin, tetracycline, kanamycin, vancomycin and chloramphenicol caused a profound decrease in contractile force. These data should not be extrapolated directly to clinical situations since most of the experiments did not parallel precisely the usual form of antibiotic administration. In the presence of infection, antibiotic drugs are among the most effective agents available. However, the physician must be aware of the potential for cardiac depression, especially in patients with an already compromised cardiac status or with impaired renal function.

Both watching and playing great defense never gets old.
Some of the top defensive players in the game have aged a bit, but that didn't stop them from having outstanding seasons in 2019.
This year's Fielding Bible Awards include four recipients who were 30 or olderIndians catcher Roberto Perez, Brewers center fielder Lorenzo Cain,
Diamondbacks left fielder David Peralta, and Astros pitcher Zack Greinke.
The 33-year-old Cain and the 36-year-old Greinke each won for the second straight season.
They were joined as repeat winners by first baseman Matt Olson, second baseman Kolten Wong, and third baseman Matt Chapman.
Newly honored winners joining Peralta and Perez are shortstop Nick Ahmed and right fielder Cody Bellinger. Bellinger also won the Multi-Position award.
He's the first player to win two Fielding Bible Awards in the same season.
Congratulations to all the winners!
Two new panelists, baseball journalists Joe Sheehan and Christina Kahrl, are now part of our 12-person expert voting panel.
Meg Rowley, managing editor of Fangraphs.com, has been added as a tiebreaker voter.
The panel awards 10 winners each year, one at each position plus an additional award that goes to the best defensive multi-position player.
Here's a refresher on how the awards are determined.
We asked a panel of 12 experts to rank 10 players at each position on a scale from 1 to 10.
A first-place vote gets 10 points, second place 9 points, third place 8 points, etc.
Total up the points for each player and the player with the most points wins the award. A perfect score is 120 points.
Here are the Fielding Bible Awards for the 2019 season.
Olson won his second in a row, this time by unanimous selection. He is a difference-maker at first base for the Athletics,
helping make their infield one of the best in baseball. Twelve of his 13 Defensive Runs Saved come from Range & Positioning.
Only two other first basemen even reached five Range & Positioning Runs Saved. Olson is very surehanded,
rating above average on balls hit down the line and in the hole.
He does great work handling throws from shortstop Marcus Semien and third baseman Matt Chapman.
Over the last two seasons, Olson has 67 Good Fielding Plays for throw handling. No other first baseman has more than 60.
Kolten Wong has earned the title of best defensive second baseman the last two seasons,
becoming an efficient machine when it comes to turning ground balls into outs. Last year he edged out DJ LeMahieu by five points.
This time he was a unanimous selection. Wong stands out for getting outs on balls in the '34' hole that other second basemen don't reach.
He also brings an aggressiveness to the position. Wong made 38 plays in which he sprinted to either reach a pop up or go after a ground ball,
five more than any other second baseman.
Chapman hasn't been around for that long, but his defensive work already merits mention with all-time greats. Chapman specializes in doubles denial.
The Athletics allowed 97 ground balls hit within 10 feet of the third base line. Their third basemen (almost always Chapman) turned 76% of them into outs,
a rate 20 percentage points above the MLB average. What's so impressive is that Chapman does this sort of thing while playing a mistake-free third base.
He had the fewest Misplays & Errors on a per-inning basis of any third baseman. In the last three seasons Chapman has 66 Defensive Runs Saved.
Nolan Arenado ranks second among third basemen with 33, half as many!
Ahmed ended Andrelton Simmons' six-year reign as a Fielding Bible Award winner. He edged Javier Baez by two points in an extremely tight vote.
Ahmed's success doesn't come from making flashy plays like his positional counterparts.
It comes on the strength of his throwing arm (he pitched in college) which allows him to make plays in the hole that other shortstops can't make.
On the Sports Info Solutions Baseball Podcast, Ahmed expressed concern that good defenders outside major markets might get overlooked.
He's not getting overlooked by our panel.
Speaking of close votes, left field went to our tiebreaker, which gave the award to Peralta over Michael Brantley of the Astros.
Peralta tied Brantley and Mike Tauchman for the lead in Defensive Runs Saved among left fielders with 10.
Those came largely from his being able to catch up to fly balls hit to the deepest part of the ballpark.
He also had a positive value in Outfield Arm Runs Saved in left field for the first time in his career.
Left field might not be the most glamorous position in the major leagues these days, but Peralta does what needs to be done to excel there.
Center field is a physically challenging position. And it's one in which great players abound.
That makes it highly impressive that Cain is the first center fielder to win a Fielding Bible Award in consecutive years since BIS introduced the award in 2006.
Cain is all about chasing down well-hit fly balls.
His five home run robberies matched the most in a season since we began tracking them in 2004 (Carlos Gomez had five in 2013,
Josh Reddick matched Cain this season). Cain now has three Fielding Bible Awards. He took our first Multi-Positional honor in 2014.
Bellinger racked up Defensive Runs Saved early in the season, setting a pace that was tough to match.
His 19 Runs Saved matched Aaron Judge for the most at the position. Bellinger's winning ended a three-year award-winning run by Mookie Betts.
Like Betts, Bellinger has great range and a terrific throwing arm.
Bellinger, Betts and Brian Anderson of the Marlins tied for the lead among right fielders with five Outfield Arm Runs Saved.
He's the first Dodgers outfielder to win a Fielding Bible Award.
After trading Yan Gomes in the offseason, the Indians committed to Perez as their primary catcher.
He ranked fourth in the majors in innings caught and every one was caught at a high level. Perez does everything you would want a catcher to do.
He ranked second at the position in our pitch-framing metric (Strike Zone Runs Saved) and second in Catcher Block Rate and was above-average
in basestealing deterrence. That led to him saving 29 runs, one shy of the most in a season for a catcher.
Four different catchers have won a Fielding Bible Award the last four years, but Perez may have some staying power.
Greinke won his second straight Fielding Bible Award because he kept busy. His 68 chances were a career-high and the most in the majors.
He led the majors in putouts by a pitcher and tied for the lead in assists with Braves starter Max Fried.
He ran away with the lead in double plays, being a part of 12. No other pitcher had more than five.
Greinke is still spry, even after 16 years in the major leagues. He covers ground well off the mound.
His defense is important to his overall success as a pitcher.
In talking to Dodgers coach George Lombard earlier this season, he felt that Bellinger was capable of being the game's best defender in right field,
center field, and first base. Bellinger might prove him correct someday.
For now, he's good enough at all three to earn this award for multi-positional excellence.
Bellinger had 19 Runs Saved in right field, four at first base, and three in center field.
His 26 in total were good for second in the majors to Roberto Perez's 29.
Bellinger has the range, the reflexes and the arm to handle whatever comes his way. He showed that and then some in 2019.

BTS's "God Of Destruction" RM Gets Clowned By His Own Commercial
It's been eight years, but RM is still living up to his "God of Destruction" nickname!
BTS's leader is a man of many talents, and one of those talents is the power to break everything he touches. From props on set to his own collectibles, nothing (and no one) is safe!
In March, BTS became the new global brand ambassadors for Coway, a Korean appliance company that manufactures many household products, including water purifiers and mattresses.
A new behind-the-scenes video shows RM and Jin in a kitchen, looking handsome in their chic dress clothes. Their mission? Show the world how simple and convenient it is to use a Coway water purifier. Little did RM know that he would be clowned by his own commercial!
RM was minding his own business when Coway added this funny commentary; "Even RM can easily change the filter." Even RM? Are these the same savage editors from Run BTS!, or what?
The editors weren't the only ones teasing him. At one point, Jin joked about RM's "awkward gesture," but it was all in good fun!

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, JAXA, on October 7 morning suspended the launch of its fifth Epsilon solid-fuel rocket that is expected to carry nine small satellites, including Vietnam's NanoDragon.
In its announcement, JAXA said the suspension was due to strong wind.
On October 1 morning, JAXA also suspended the launch of the rocket some 19 seconds before the scheduled lift-off time.
According to the agency, a glitch occurred at ground radar equipment that monitors the Epsilon-5's position and speed, located near the rocket's launching pad. It might cause a problem in tracking the rocket.
The NanoDragon, a nano-layer cubesat satellite which weighs 3.8 kilograms, was developed by the Vietnam National Space Centre (VNSC) under the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology.
The satellite was delivered to Japan and tested at the Uchinoura Space Centre in Kagoshima prefecture in August before being officially transferred to the JAXA for launching under the second "Innovative satellite technology demonstration" programme.

Runaway GO, with support from; Leaders of Men, Pretty Child Backfire and Go Swim.
Wednesday 4th December 2013 – Limelight 2, Belfast
On a cold cold cold Wednesday night Runaway GO came back to Belfast and graced the Limelight 2 stage, synonymous with opportunities for local bands. Billing their final show of 2013 as a Christmas show was however perhaps a dodgy assertion considering the lack of carols, mince pies and tinsel. Altogether I left feeling as festive as I had when I entered the venue, but that is a minor detail that is easily forgiven considering the rammed line up provided on the night.
As the early patters of footsteps came through the door, Go Swim were thrust on stage to provide a pleasant soundtrack. Fronted by Steven Smith and Julianne Shawe they showcased a confidence and assertiveness in their set that is pivotal in any band holding aspirations of progress. This being the first time I have seen them they left me wholly satisfied. Their set compiled of the usual blend of drum, guitar and bass; but their melodic composition has the potential to make them worthy of some follow up research. Perhaps the full line up of the night worked against them in that they were placed so early in the night, but I am confident they will find new fans within each audience they play to.
Next on stage were Belfast regulars Pretty Child Backfire with their increasingly distinctive catchy melodies. Consistently instantaneously likeable to the Pretty Child virgin, they performed with their usual on-stage confidence. Acting as support on this occasion, they performed their duties entirely in enticing the ever growing crowd to dawn their shifting swaying sides and leave that early gig awkwardness behind. The slot also gave Pretty Child the opportunity to further field-test some new material. Impressively, they dealt with some sound issues in such a mature and seasoned manner that many of the attentive crowd didn't even notice. Learning from experiences like this will only strengthen their reputation as one of the Capitals 'one to watch' bands.
Final support for the evening was imported from Dublin in the form of Leaders of Men. A band who I hadn't encountered before this gig; they provided a surprising contrast in style to Runaway GO, certainly a heavier act than the more clean cut headliners. Their performance was commanding in a venue and city outside of any comfort zones they may have. With the help of their easing frontman the crowd responded favourably. Personally the set wasn't to my tastes, but they invigorated the crowd further and alas, the audience were warmed up and ready for the headline act.
The first time I saw RunawayGO, there was no Runaway GO. Under the name Phoenix Fire, they performed in support of More Than Conquerors in the Speakeasy. They didn't have many songs but I remember being blown away by the presence on-stage of Dave and Fionna and how they interacted with the crowd. Some years later the songs are different, and the front two have only become more accomplished. Immediately they drew a line under the support acts, creating their own atmosphere to ensure there was no doubt whose night it was. Brimming with confidence after some high profile support slots under the likes of Bastille, King Charles and the Editors this performance signified a coming of age and the emergence of a new mature band. Runaway GO are not difficult to come by for any local gig goers, by all means they do their bit when it comes to the Belfast music scene; whether it's Dave in Filthy's bellowing his hearty voice with exuberance, or Chris providing us with a host of tunes in his capacity as a DJ. It's easy for bands to loose charm and interest when they are too available, the live equivalent to radio overplaying. This gig signalled a revival in their live sets; trying out new songs and mixing it up by performing 'I'll Still Love You' and 'Wide Awake' acoustically; three voices around one mic with gentle guitar plucks for accompaniment as an obedient and mesmerised crowd watched on. Sing-a-longs were had, feet shifted and hips swayed. Finishing on a high with 'Jump Start', the crowd demanded an encore. Obliging, the band returned to perform the popular 'Delicate Man' but not before announcing the sad departure of drummer Javed, who we all wish well going forward.NOT a Christmas show, but a show worth going to, Runaway GO's final show of the year was an impressive one. They're off to make an album now. Good luck to them, they've certainly built their foundations.


text: At the conclusion of any case, whether it is a divorce or a custody case, an order is entered by the Court that the parties are obligated to follow. When a court order is not followed, contempt hearings can be initiated to enforce the terms of an existing court order. Contempt cases are commonly brought regarding child support and child custody, but there are many other family-law related orders that may be enforce via a contempt proceeding. The court can impose serious consequences as a result of violating one of its orders, which could include a "purge" provision requiring the other party to rid themselves of the contempt, attorney's fees and, in extreme cases, jail time.

There have been a slew of truck accidents in the Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware area this summer. Truck accidents are often fatal, due to the size and speed of trucks relative to other cars on the road.
Below is a summary of truck accidents over the last few months.
Last month, a Middletown Pennsylvania man died after a commercial truck accident in Londonderry Township. His commercial truck overturned in the roadway and came to a rest in the opposite lane of travel. Another driver then struck the truck. Both the truck and the second car were disabled as a result of the accident. *Source: www.pennlive.com, Middletown man killed in two-vehicle crash on East Harrisburg Pike
Also last month, a large truck carrying animal cargo crashed off of Interstate 495 in Delaware. A tractor trailer overturned on a ramp and then landed on the guardrail. According to the state police, the truck driver received a citation for inattentive driving. Fortunately, no one was injured in the accident. *Source: www.philly.com, "23 cows from Pa. farm dead after truck crash"
A young Pennsylvania woman was killed when her car was struck by a tractor trailer. The woman had hit a deer and as a result, she was sitting in her disabled vehicle in the right hand lane of Interstate 81 in Swatara Township in Dauphin County. A tractor trailer struck her car, sending it across the road and up an embankment. The accident occurred early in the morning, and according to police, the woman was not wearing her seat belt. She was pronounced dead at the scene. *Source: www.pennlive.com, "Hazleton woman killed in I-81 tractor-trailer crash"
In May, a flatbed truck-car accident in New Jersey resulted in a fatality. The accident occurred in the northbound lanes of Interstate 295 in Hamilton Township, New Jersey. The truck and a Lexus sustained heavy damage and came to a rest in the highway's median. Source: http://abclocal.go.com, "Deadly crash on I-295 in Mercer County, N.J."
A fatal truck accident occurred earlier this week in the Philadelphia area. A Delaware man had turned onto Township Line Road in Upper Darby/Drexel Hill when he was struck by a dump truck traveling in the same direction. The impact sent the man's car across traffic, into the opposite lane of travel where it was struck again by another vehicle. The man was pronounced dead at the scene. *Source: www.delcotimes.com, "Fatal crash closes Township Line Road in Drexel Hill"
Defensive driving is crucial in avoiding any accident, whether it is a car, truck or pedestrian accident. Between changing music stations to eating and drinking in our cars, distractions lead to accidents. It is important for all drivers to limit distractions and practice safe, defensive driving.

Winston Accuser's Lawyer Wants Florida Attorney General To Investigate Tallahassee Police
The lawyer for the woman who accused Florida State University quarterback Jameis Winston of sexual assault says she'll ask state attorney general Pam Bondi to investigate the Tallahassee Police Department's conduct.
Patricia Carroll held a press conference Friday morning to blast the way the TPD and Tallahassee State Attorney Willie Meggs conducted their investigations.
Carroll stopped short of accusing the TPD of misconduct, but did allege that case records provided to the media were incomplete. Carroll says records she received from the accuser's family appear more complete, adding that seven of the 11 pages of one report are missing from the case files released this week to the media.
Carroll also attacked the credibility of the two witnesses who say they saw Winston and the woman engaged in a sex act, calling the statements provided by the two men "patently false."
Carroll says she wants Bondi to determine if there's "a systemic problem" with the Tallahassee Police Department. During a 90-minute talk with reporters in a Pasco County park, she said Meggs should have spent more than the 13 days he took to parse the facts in the case.
Carroll says Meggs determined he could not charge anyone in the case only because his investigation wasn't thorough enough. WFSU News called Bondi's office seeking a comment on whether she'll heed Carroll's request for an investigation, but a member of her press team could not give an immediate response.
Jameis Winston will find out Saturday if he's the second freshman ever to win college football's top award, the Heisman Trophy.

Beauty is a form of self-care that can improve the way you present yourself to the world. You will earn a higher lever of respect from others when you show that you value and care for yourself. Use your beauty to your full advantage with the following tips.
Exfoliate skin thoroughly prior to applying fake tan. This process will smooth skin and remove layers of dead skin cells. Your artificial tan will apply evenly after this. It will also make it stay on longer so that it resembles the real thing.
Give your hair, and your blow dryer, a rest. Between the curling and straightening irons and the hair dryer, you can put entirely too much heat stress on your hair and scalp. If you do need to use a blow dryer, put it on the lowest possible setting. Your hair will retain a softer, silkier look for much longer.
You need to cleanse your skin once or twice every day. No matter what you do, take off all your makeup before you clean your skin. If you do not do this you may clog your pores and get pimples.
Moisturizer should be applied in a thin coat before makeup. While moisturizers are excellent for your skin, they also aid in spreading your makeup evenly. It will prevent your makeup from looking blotchy. This is a great way to make your makeup last longer and keep your face with a fresh look.
Sometimes skin blemishes, like pimples, can detract from our beauty at the most inopportune times. If a pimple creeps up, you can try a simple home remedy. Allow the toothpaste to sit on your skin for about 10 minutes, then wash it off with warm water. This will help clear the pimple up and gets rid of redness.
If a social occasion is on your calendar right after work, refresh your face by using a fluffy brush for dusting matte powder on the oiliest parts of your face. You can also enhance your cheekbones by using a small amount of shimmery powder on your cheeks.
You should always have vitamin E on hand. It's useful for many things. It is helpful in making your skin soft. Use Vitamin E on finger and toe nails and they will be nice and smooth instead of rough.
Spray damp hair with "hot spray" prior to blow drying. You can find this in generic stores like Wal-Mart or Target. It's used to prevent split ends and help your hair dry quicker. Heat protective sprays can help prevent over-drying, and provide hair with a pleasant smell after treatment.
Taking care of you hair and skin, sticking to a nutritious diet and exercising regularly will enable you to feel good. By using the advice this article has given you, you will begin feeling better about yourself soon.

In the cat, myoclonic jerking and/or tonic/clonic convulsions can be controlled by ultrashort-acting barbiturates or acepromazine.

Sign You're Codependent
Characteristics of Codependency
When we experience being codependent, we miss opportunities for more enjoyable ways of relating.
Striking a balance between independence and autonomy while also having connection and togetherness is not easy to achieve — interdependence.
However, the pursuit of healthier relating and doing this dance of intimacy is worthy of our time and attention.
1. Low Self-Worth
Your family growing up may have been troubled or dysfunctional and you were made to feel like you were not good enough.
2. Weak Boundaries
You may know exactly what others feel and need but confuse that as your own.
3. Lack of Trust
You don't trust yourself, your feelings, or your decisions so you look to others to fill this void.
4. Control Issues
You feel out of control and without an internal compass so you find your clinging to others.
5. Obsessive
You spend a lot of time thinking about past and imagined future experiences with others.
6. Anger
You've been shamed for feeling angry and yet feel controlled by the fear of other people's anger.
