text: Experience and information should be advantageous to residents of a home range but put invaders at a disadvantage causing them to establish their home ranges elsewhere. Conspecifics should avoid the home ranges of one another to ensure they are not altering resource availability, but encountering one competitor (e.g., dominant or of a different sex) may cause an individual to discount resource patches differently compared to if they encountered another conspecific. We tested the hypothesis that female and male carnivores responded differently to the presence of sex-specific competitors. We tested our hypothesis by selectively releasing newly moved fishers (Pekania pennanti) in the presence or absence of already established fisher home ranges during a reintroduced into northern California over 3 years from late 2009 to 2011. Using satellite transmitters (Argos) and land-based (VHF) telemetry we made daily observations of fisher locations, movements and area of their minimum convex polygons during their first 200 hundred time steps after release. Females that encountered the home range of any conspecifics moved further, had larger minimum convex polygons and settled further from their release locations than did females that did not encounter a conspecific home range. Males did not avoid, or appeared indifferent, to the home ranges of all conspecifics but males released in the absence of females moved more. Our results suggest that female fishers avoided conspecific competition from both males and females in accordance with our hypothesis. Males appeared motivated by the absence of females and by the type of sex-specific competitor they encountered.

Connect Power BI to IXON Cloud for advanced machine analytics
2 min. readShelly Boom
At IXON, we strongly believe in the power of integrated solutions and the KISS principle. That's why, besides VPN and industrial remote access, we offer Cloud Logging dashboards for easy machine data visualisation. However, each use case has its own desires, issues and approach.
IXON Cloud is a great solution for many situations, but we do recognize that some use cases may ask for a different approach. We're happy to announce that one of our integration partners has successfully integrated IXON Cloud with Microsoft Power BI, which is part of Office365. This allows you to move data from your industrial equipment, via IXON Cloud to Microsoft's popular business intelligence tool.
With IXON Cloud Logging you can quickly and easily gain insight into your business operations. When Cloud Logging is enabled, this data is automatically read from the PLC, collected and transferred to the IXON Cloud and displayed on crisp dashboards. Although Cloud Logging is very fast to implement, some companies may have needs that Cloud Logging does not fulfil.
Imagine, for example, you want to aggregate, merge and enrich data from multiple data sources. These can be external sources like demographic statistics (weather, traffic, etc.) and economic statistics (from banks, CBS, etc.). Or internal sources like CRM, ERP, planning and production systems. Although this goes beyond what Cloud Logging offers, we do facilitate this through our open platform API. This way you determine which data is imported and how you want to visualize it.
In Power BI it's extremely simple to combine all these internal and external data sources into valuable insights that support decision making. Power BI excels at data manipulation, processing and visualisation and provides users with additional ways to visualize their machine data, offering new insights into the data that we extract from your machines.
In Microsoft Power BI, reports are developed with the free application Power BI Desktop. With the Power BI for IXON connector, your IXON data is imported into Power BI. You can ensure it's always up to date with automated, incremental refreshes. Power BI Desktop enables you to develop deep, actionable insights for a broad range of scenarios.
Data can be stored both locally and in the Microsoft cloud. When using Power BI, data dashboard visualizations no longer have to be set up by your IT department, but can be done by people on the shop floor. By default, Power BI offers 32 built-in Visuals for visualizing your data in different ways. But in the Power BI Store, you can buy many more from third-party providers.
As you may know, IXON is an open platform with a powerful API, which you can use to extract all desired data from our cloud and feed it into any system you want. IXON's partner StriData has created the Power BI IXON connector to effortlessly analyze your machine data in Microsoft Power BI. The connector handles all the communication with the IXON API. No programming or API knowledge is required.
If you'd like to use Power BI for IXON you can get in touch with our integration partner StriData (firstname.lastname@example.com), web: https://stridata.com/ixon/ They will be more than happy to consult you.
If you've got questions about the possibilities of IXON Cloud and data collection, please contact IXON.

I would suggest not trading the stock higher then $5-$6 as I see you have a small account , I'm not saying don't trade them. If there's a good enough opportunity go for it , but otherwise stay away.
If you make let's say 0.20 on a $3 stock with a position size of 500 shares you make a quick $100 - fees around 70 bucks I would say not completely sure...
Tracking your trades good! :)
@bram101 Thanks. I've been tracking since I began. Doing more in depth analysis now that I have STT. Most stocks I'm looking at under $10. With $CRON being in a hot sector, I don't think it's a bad idea to keep on my watch list.

The Alexander quote is great. One we could all learn from. It's tough to get past it.
@JeepTrader I feel like it is impossible to fully control your emotions, but you can observe them and learn to act on your plan before your "feelings" get involved. We are all happy when we win, and sad when we lose, but if you keep your risk in check you will avoid the most painful of plays. Be mindful of greed and fear, that is the true objective.

Great move. I did the same thing. I have 4 rules posted in front of my computer. 1) Cut losses 2) Wait 3) Take profit & run 4) Don't chase. I am seeing a change in my trading already.
Nice! I like take profit & run.

FOMO (aka, Fear Of Missing Out)
FOMO is the abbreviation of "fear of missing out" which is the anxiety that you may feel when you worry about not going to events, not knowing or not seeing trending issues or events specially via social media. For instance, a student may fear that he is not aware of the recent events so he is compulsively checking his Facebook feed and Twitter. This was initially researched by Dan Herman, a market strategist, in 1996. However, the acronym FOMO was coined by Patrick McGinnis in 2004.

If he is still alive he must be approaching adulthood now. His eyes still haunt me and I wish him well. The image speaks for itself and the only significant enhancement was to incorporate his eyes into his shirt.

On 9 May 2021, members of the Nemangkawi task force arrested Victor Yeimo (see photo, source: Jubi) in Jayapura. He is the West Papua National Committee (KNPB) international spokesperson, a civil resistance movement organisation promoting the right to self-determination. Yeimo also plays a significant role in forming a petition against the prolongation of Papua's special autonomy status. According to various media sources, the police had already searched Victor Yeimo since the Uprising, a series of protests against the racial discrimination of ethnic Papuans and for self-determination in 23 towns across West Papua and 17 cities in Indonesia between 19 August and 30 September 2019. The police believe that he played a major role in organising and leading the protests.
Viktor Yeimo is currently detained at the Mobile Brigade headquarters in Kotaraja, Jayapura. The police are currently investigating allegations of Yeimo's involvement in civil unrests related to the Uprising. According to the head of Papua Regional Police (Polda Papua), Mathius Fakhiri, the police is planning to charge the Papuan activist with treason as regulated under article 106 of the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) and or Article 110 of the KUHP on criminal conspiracy and or Article 160 KUHP on incitement and or Article 187 KUHP on arson and or Article 365 KUHP on theft using violence and or Article 170 (1) on collective violence and or Article 2 of Emergency Law No 12/1961 on illegal possession of slashing and stabbing arms as well as multiple legal provisions regulated under Law No 24/2009 on Flag, Language, National Emblem, and the National Anthem.
The Uprising was triggered by the racist persecution against West Papuan students in Java from 15 to 18 August 2019 and later. The Uprising then swept across 23 towns in West Papua and 17 cities in Indonesia during the period of 19 August and to 30 September. The three key demands of The Uprising were to condemn racism, prosecute perpetrators of racist incidents in Java, which triggered The Uprising, and demand the West Papuan people's right to self-determination through an independence referendum.
After the civil unrest, the Indonesian police launched a widespread series of prosecutions against political activists, journalists and human rights defenders. Statistical data suggests that Indonesian police officers reportedly conducted at least 525 arrests connected with the protests between 18 August and 25 September 2019. Subsequently, the police and public prosecutors initiated legal processes against at least 130 suspects. Twenty-two of them have been charged with treason or criminal conspiracy under articles 106 and 110 KUHP for participating in demonstrations against racism or peacefully advocating for the right to self-determination.

Book Review: A New Politics for an Age of Crisis
By Shelley Tanenbaum.
GREAT MINDS AND SAVVY organizers repeatedly stress that we need to articulate a vision if we hope to build a successful movement for political and cultural change, yet rarely do those great minds articulate a vision themselves. I am happy to lift up George Monbiot's latest book, Out of the Wreckage, containing a powerful and succinct vision and a roadmap for getting there.
Monbiot describes two world views that dominate our political and cultural worlds. Most of us prioritize community, friendship, and equality, and seek to make the world a better place for all. Some of us are more interested in individual reward, and value competition over cooperation. Our economic system favors the latter, and makes the assumption that competition is our natural human state. Monbiot argues that instead, our natural state is one of altruism and community.
Based on our mutual respect for each other and the planet, "by reviving community, built around the places in which we live and by anchoring ourselves, our politics and parts of our economy in the life of this community, we can recover the best aspects of our humanity."
Part of rebuilding our communities is to understand that neither Keynesian nor neo-liberal versions of economic theory will work for this new vision. Economics is embedded in our society, which in turn is embedded in the planetary ecosystem. Economics must be beholden first to the needs of society and ultimately to the limits of our natural world.
I was inspired and energized by his clear description of why we are in such a mess, what we would prefer, and how to get there, all in 186 pages. May it help you build community and reinforce the value you place in friendship and equality.
Shelley Tanenbaum is QEW's General Secretary.
An Excerpt from Out of the Wreckage by George Monbiot
COMMUNITY PROJECTS PROLIFERATE into a vibrant, participatory culture that transforms the character of our neighborhoods. New social and commercial enterprises strengthen our sense of attachment and ownership.
A flourishing community stimulates our innate urge to cooperate. It helps immunize us against extremism and demagoguery, and it turns democracy into a daily habit. Community is the place from which a new politics begins to grow.
Communities come to own and manage local resources, ensuring that wealth is widely shared and that the sense of belonging to place and people is strengthened. Using common riches to fund universal benefits provides everyone with security and resilience. A kinder world stimulates and normalizes our kinder values.
By gaining control of public investment, we take ownership of both our localities and our lives. We come to see ourselves as political agents, rather than as supplicants. These shifts help to embed a new economics, whose purpose is to allow us to thrive without destroying the Earth's living systems.
By reclaiming democratic power, we build a politics that belongs to all of us. A real democracy is one that allows the people to design the system. New methods and rules for elections ensure that every vote counts and that financial power can never vanquish political power.
Representative democracy is reinforced by a participatory democracy that allows us to refine our political choices. The tussle for sovereignty between parliament and people is resolved in favor of the people.
Global bodies that have seized power without a democratic mandate are either disbanded or democratized. Decision-making is returned to the smallest political units that can discharge it. Wherever power resides, it is accountable to the people, through elections and participation. Power becomes a function of community.

English Bishop Urges Catholics to Oppose Jersey Assisted Suicide Proposal
Bishop Philip Egan of Portsmouth has spoken out repeatedly in recent years against the legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia in the Channel Islands.
The Catholic bishop overseeing the island of Jersey has called on clergy and parishioners to "speak out" and mobilize against proposals to legalize assisted suicide there.
Jersey, located in the English channel near the French coast, is under the purview of the Diocese of Portsmouth. Bishop Philip Egan of Portsmouth has spoken out repeatedly in recent years against the legalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia in the Channel Islands.
"Assisting someone to die prematurely or to commit suicide, even when they earnestly request it, can never ever be a compassionate action. It is a grave sin. We must not yield to the temptation to apply rapid solutions, moved by a false compassion or by criteria of efficiency and cost-effectiveness," Bishop Egan wrote in a May 22 letter.
"Instead, we need to show respect and tenderness to patients who are seriously ill so that the sacred value of their life can shine forth with splendor in their suffering. Modern palliative care, an area in which the UK is a world leader, enables this."
Jersey is a British crown dependency, with its own government and legal system, though the British monarch is head of state. It has a unicameral legislature called the States Assembly, which backed an assisted suicide proposition by 36 votes to 10, with three absences, on Nov. 25, 2021.
Bishop Egan's letter comes amid elections in Jersey. The bishop urged voters to overturn the "grim proposals" currently before the island's legislature. The proposition would permit an adult island resident under certain conditions with a "voluntary, clear, settled, and informed wish to end his or her own life" to seek assisted suicide.
"Don't let Jersey become a destination for death and suicide tourism. Assisted suicide is incompatible with a doctor's role as healer. It would be difficult or impossible to control. It would pose serious societal risks. The right to die would soon become the duty to die," he noted.
The Catholic Church supports, rather than assisted suicide or euthanasia, palliative care, which means seeking to accompany a patient towards the end of their lives with methods such as pain management. While firmly opposing euthanasia, Catholics do not believe life must always be prolonged with unduly burdensome medical treatment. Pope Francis has described assisted suicide as part of a "throwaway culture" that offers a "false compassion" and treats a human person as a problem.
"Frailty, pain and infirmity are a difficult trial for anyone. Those who are terminally ill can experience despair and gloom at the problems they face, even feeling a sense of burden on family and a financial burden on society. Yet we can thank God for the amazing advances that medical science has made and for the level of loving care that can nowadays be given," Bishop Egan wrote.
"Modern drugs and modern methods mean that in today's world, palliative care doctors and nurses can use their skills and knowledge to ensure that pain is properly managed at the end of life. Indeed, as a Christian, I would go further and say that in union with Christ, it is possible to find from Him all the strength, patience and energy we need to sustain our suffering – to 'carry the cross' (Mt 16: 24) – and to turn it into a positive good for others."
In March 2021, Jersey formed a citizens' jury, made up of 23 randomly selected applicants, to determine whether assisted suicide should be allowed on the island. If the island changes its laws, Jersey will be the first place on the British Isles to allow assisted suicide, though proposals to legalize the practice are also being considered in both Scotland and England.
The Jersey jury met virtually ten times over two months, starting March 18, to hear evidence and consider and debate the legal, ethical, and medical implications of legalizing assisted suicide.
Ultimately nearly 80% of the jurors, or 18 out of the 23, agreed that assisted suicide should be permitted when a Jersey resident, aged 18 and over, has a terminal illness or is experiencing "unbearable suffering," which would not include suffering caused by a mental condition such as depression, ITV reported.
Health Minister Richard Renouf has said that he fears that some elderly or frail residents may feel themselves a "burden" on their families and may feel pressure to end their own lives.
"We believe in assisted living, not assisted dying. Death is not pain relief but the beginning of a new life for ever with God our Father and Creator. This future depends on the state of our soul when we die and this perspective rightly affects our decisions on end of life care and how best to uphold a patient's personal dignity. Someone near the end of life needs support, comfort and care, good pain control, respect and loving communication – not suicide on prescription," Bishop Egan wrote in his letter.
Bishop Egan has also spoken out in recent years against proposals to legalize assisted suicide on another Channel Island, Guernsey. In 2018, the legislature of Guernsey rejected a proposed legalization of assisted suicide, drawing praise from Bishop Egan.

Do You Want a Virtual Assistant? Use Your Phone!
Do you find yourself forgetting appointments, losing your 'to do' listing, or missing cut-off dates? If so, use your clever smartphone as a virtual assistant to help prepare your lifestyles and increase your productivity. I use the iPhone. However, any clever phone will do all of the obligations listed in this text.
I use the calendar to keep in tune with engagements and reoccurring tasks. After getting into an assignment or occasion in the calendar, the program permits you to designate whether the project may be reoccurring. The calendar has an alert to warn me days, hours, or minutes earlier than the scheduled event. I music my workouts, meetings, and reminders. I delete the undertaking off the calendar once I actually have completed it. Every night, I make sure I even have finished the whole thing I had scheduled that day, and then I preview what I have on the listing for the next day. When I awaken the following morning, I recognize precisely how I will spend my time.
In the beyond, I changed into a 'list individual.' I wrote down my 'to-do' list regularly, but then I might typically lose the listing. I don't know how usually I went to the grocery keep then found out I had left my shopping listing at home. So now I use the Notes utility. This is brilliant because if I run by way of the shop on the way home from paintings to pick out milk, I can fast test the buying listing I made in my Notes app to peer if I need to buy something else.
I can e-mail myself at once from the Notes utility and print any notice information out later if wished. I no longer handwrite notes in the course of business meetings — now I type them into my cell phone, email them to myself, and print them out. When I get returned to the office. I actually drafted my personal policy manual even as ready in an airport throughout an enterprise experience. I wrote a bankruptcy of my first e-book whilst on a Jet Ski within the center of a lake near my domestic. When I returned home, I sincerely went to my electronic mail and printed the documents out.
I can access the Internet every time of the day, irrespective of where I am. I love this because I am one of these curious people who visit Google to discover records twenty times an afternoon. I also can take a look at my financial institution balance and pay payments online. I may even shop online properly on my phone. During a shuttle one morning, I booked a cruise!
Address Book (Contacts)
I now do not gather enterprise playing cards. When I meet a person at an assembly, I definitely create a brand new touch within the Contacts app. I can position any data I want in their file: call, smartphone numbers, cope with, email addresses, start date, office facts, website, immediately message names, and any random notes I feel like writing approximately this man or woman. I can take a photograph of them to save with the touch, and when they came, I can assign them their personal ringtone.
I do now not bring commercial enterprise cards anymore. If someone needs my contact records, I shape electronic mail and textual content that I ship them. They now have my records on their cellphone, and that they do not have to fear approximately maintaining up with my card.
The iPhone is an amazing tour associate. I can use the Maps Application to locate directions. Using journey apps, I can search restaurants and reserve a table. I can take a look at the weather wherein I am or at my destination. While waiting in the airport, I may examine an e-book on an analyzing utility, play games, watch films on my iPod, listen to a downloaded audio e-book, or exercise my Spanish.
I keep all my common flyer numbers within the Contacts App through the airline. This got here inaccessible when the airline canceled my flight while touring Aspen, Colorado. Delta airlines took me over other vacationers because I changed into delivering them my frequent flyer range proper off my cellphone — the opposite travelers only had the wide variety of the airline they had been touring on their office work. In addition, I shop all the information for condo automobile agencies and their loyalty packages. I hold my vehicle insurance records saved in my smartphone. That's easily on hand if I have a coincidence.
You will not preserve up with boarding passes to any extent further due to the fact maximum airline agencies will ship you a code your airline attendant can scan without delay of your smartphone. My iPhone actually stored my vacation one time after I misplaced our journey papers. Of path, I had the travel agent's number saved in my contacts. However, I additionally made a Travel touch and stored the itinerary number, flight numbers and times, resort and condo car numbers. I misplaced my paperwork, however now not the journey statistics.
One time while on foot around Chicago on a business ride, I got lost. I truly knew the motel smartphone number that I saved in my phone contacts beneath 'Travel' to get guidelines. As a plus, the inn front table character took pity upon me and sent an automobile because I was six blocks away and it had begun to snow. I think I sounded a little bit freaked out because it would not snow lots in my fatherland. I felt like a queen traveling back to the hotel in a comfortable, heated vehicle. This would have in no way befell if I had not stored their range in my cell phone.
Speaking of accommodations, the iPhone has an alarm, so I must not fear approximately getting a wake-up name or address an unusual inn alarm clock. It has a flashlight as nicely, which once got here in handy throughout a health emergency within the middle of the night. That night I additionally found out of some other use for my cellphone – the camera. One of the men on my ground had taken a picture of the emergency path posted at the door internal his hotel room. An institution of us sleepy, disoriented tourists accompanied him to the emergency go out.

Now you can use 3D models directly in Final Cut Pro with Coremelt's ModelX. We also have a coupon code for money off!
Editing is all about timing, it could be the delivery of dialogue or matching elements to music. The key here is to be able to move or trim items in respect to each other to get the desired pace, impact or emotion. And that's not really what motion graphics programs are good at, that's what an NLE is for.
So why not just run everything through Motion? Well, you might want to do something simple like add a product in a pack shot such as a bottle with a custom label, or create a 3D environment to provide a backdrop for text. Things that would be a lot easier to tweak and time in FCP.
So we were interested in Coremelt's new $99 product ModelX which allows the use of 3d models directly in Final Cut Pro without having to bounce them through Motion first.
Roger from Coremelt explains why his company developed ModelX:
"We applaud Apple for adding support for loading 3D models into Motion but felt there was room to take the functionality further, and also to allow those to use these features directly in FCP without going into motion. Of course there are other solutions but we think we've found a trade off between features and simplicity that makes this easy for anyone to pick up and use. This is only the start we have some interesting new functionality coming to ModelX in updates"
The product was released last week and has just had a tweak to fix a few bugs. Developing such an intricate plugin that works in a host application is difficult, especially when there are now two flavours of silicon to negotiate.
Roger has very kindly given us a 30% discount coupon code to share MODELXFCPCO which is valid until 18th October 2021.
So what can you achieve with ModelX? Take a look a this video from Jake Carvey. 'Non-Synthetic Tokens' is a retro 80s rocking chilled exploration through 3D spaces. Created entirely in CoreMelt ModelX and FCP.

Puerto Rican Death Count After Hurricane Maria is More than 45 Times First Reported, According to Latest George Washington University Study
Almost 3000 people died in Puerto Rico after hurricane Maria. That's according to an estimate release by George Washington University.
The estimate is more than 45 times the number originally reported by the government. University of Central Florida's Fernando Rivera says although the number could continue to rise, he says the important things to focus on moving forward are problems that caused these deaths that still haven't been resolved.
"The issues in terms of elderly populations. The infrastructure not on par. People that may not have the resources. We have had some issues in terms of shortages of medical personnel. There are still a lot of issues that still need to be accounted for if we don't want to reproduce this outcome again."
Puerto Rican Governor Ricardo Rossello said in a press conference earlier this week the government would accept this number as the official estimate. He said it was important for Puerto Ricans to identify the problems that caused these issues and to work to put new protocol in place.

The claim settlement ratio is also a crucial factor. It is helpful to check the credibility and reliability of the health insurance provider to settle the claim. The higher the claim settlement ratio is, the higher assurance for success and timely claim you get.
Know About Waiting Period
Every health insurance company has a waiting period, which can vary from 30 days to 48 days, depending on the plan. It's advisable to check the duration of the waiting period and what all health expenses you can or cannot claim under the period. Go for the company with less waiting period or offer any add-on benefit to reduce the waiting period.

Scouting Report: Leighton Vander Esch
2018 NFL Mock Draft
DraftGeek's Mock Draft
School: Boise State Position: Inside/Outside Linebacker Class: Junior Height: 6-4 Weight: 240 lbs Projected Draft Round: 1-2
Scouting Report:
Coming off a year where he was named the Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year, Vander Esch saw his draft stock soar, and declared for the draft relatively early. An exceptional tackler, his vision and instinct allow him to quickly see what gap to attack, but is patient enough to allow the play to develop and rarely miss-diagnoses plays. Also solid in coverage, and has a good backstep and is fairly rangy in coverage. As a superb run stopper, he looks like an ideal 3-4 ILB that can maintain the interior gaps, but is athletic enough to play any linebacker position.

Just wanted to point out a fantastic yet simple design mini trend we've noticed in the Women's World Cup - patterned sleeves.
The New Zealand team or the Football Ferns proudly adds the subtle photo-realistic fern bristles to their famous all black stylings.
For the the Steel Roses or the Chinese team, yellow lines like bursting rays of sun adorn the sleeves, using a similiar template as the Manchester City home or Tottenham away jersey.
Not much needs to be said about the Nigerian or Super Falcons' kit. Sporting the same design as the men's, the modernised 90's throwback kit is one of the most popular in recent time. Covered in an eye catching, vibrant but not over done pattern with a monochromatic scheme for the sleeves.
Banyana Banyana or the South African team launched their innaugral campaign with a distinct look of interchanging thick and thin lines - it's a simple way to stand out.
The AKU design team love trying new patterns and we take requests! Check out the seigaiha or wave pattern Kui put on the sleeve for the Samurais, to keep with their customised Japanese theme. Our popular Rivaldo Template has a sleeve that's just the right amount of bold.
PS. Final mention to the Matildas who have valiantly bowed out of their World Cup campaign, losing in penalties in what many are saying is the best game of the tournament so far. Their kit was designed exclusively for the women's team, a unique and dynamic take on urban meets outback. You've done Australia proud! We hope to see more of them soon.

Here's a heads-up on the challenge or obstacle you're likely to face in your love relationship this week (problem) and what's at the root of it (action). The advice is irreverent, a bit cheeky, unfiltered and admittedly brazen. The message is putting either you or your partner on notice. You know who you are! If you're offended by the truth or strong language–stop here.
You're looking over here when perhaps you'd better start looking over there. Maybe you needed a rest to gather your thoughts, but while you've got your eyes closed in that tranquil reverie, a disaster could be headed your way unless you recognize exactly how to manipulate a situation to your favor. Either you or the partner has been biding time and keeping the other one in the dark about what's really going on. For one of you, relationship is no longer a priority. Perhaps the grief of hardship, loss, difficulty, betrayal and so on has left you bitter and resentful. This may be why you've decided to go it alone and shut out the madness of foolishness and stupidity while you build up your defenses. You're wearing full armor now and ready to do battle with mind and tongue. Yes, you're a tad vindictive–because you're tired of being treated unfairly. Just be sure to play it cool. A situation hinges on what is said–and not.
And what is it that either of you may need to know but don't really want to hear?
Alone in the dark.
You might be putting up a brave front, but you're deeply worried about a situation. You've had to make some unexpected changes recently that affected your schedule, your money, or your relationship. While the target destination is clear, you're having difficulty figuring out how to get there intact. Some delays, misunderstandings or setbacks have caused a detour. While you take great pride in knowing everything, dearest Virgo, why not let your partner drive once in a while, especially if they seem to know the lay of the land, dare I say, better than you? And even if they don't, an excursion every now and then might be worthwhile. While you can't see it now due to an emotional preoccupation with a person or outcome you're obsessing over, there are some other options up for grabs–those alternatives you cast aside for various highly principled reasons. But don't take the high road so you can look down on your partner. Take it so you can share the view.
And what is it that either of you may need to know but don't really want to hear?
It's all or nothing.
What are you trying to hold on to–old ways, old thinking…old money? There's a history behind this. Either of you may be blocked from or perpetually hold back on–affection, love, money, assets. You may be involved in territorial disputes where you vie over the power to rule the kingdom. In your mind, you're just protecting what's rightfully yours. But it may be time to consider what these ongoing worries about security are costing you. Perhaps someone is really holding on for dear life to protect their heart. Unless, of course, they've become so mean-spirited and selfishly concerned about the material that they don't have one anymore. There's a lot at stake and it's playing out as problems, disapproval, estrangement or disputes. What risk are you inclined toward–gold futures or a golden future?
And what is it that either of you may need to know but don't really want to hear?
Love don't cost a thing…is just a song.

Site description (2008 baseline)
The Zarafshan State Nature Reserve is situated in the south-eastern part of Samarkand region. Its extends from the Chapan-Ata mountain upstream along the right bank of the Zarafshan river to the Pervomayskaya dam. The nature reserve consists of two separate parts, the distance between them being 300 m. The width of each part is 100-140m and the average length is 47 km. The site is located 4 km from the Djambay railway station, 3 km from the most major road in Uzbekistan running from Tashkent to Termez, and 15 km from Samarkand. The nature reserve is located in the eastern part of the Zarafshanskaya depression (the middle part of the Zarafshan river basin) and belongs to the Zarafshan climate area of the subtropical belt. The climate is typical of the continental subtropics with large variations in daily and annual air temperatures and a pronounced periodicity in atmospheric precipitation. The site consists of a plain sloping to the riverbed. The plain is crossed by a mixture of old and active riverbeds, levees and dams. The most widespread soils are alluvial- flood lands and inundated-alluvial. The hydrological network of the nature reserve is formed by the Zarafshan river and its channels. There is a irrigation canal on the right bank in the protected zone. Water levels in the Zarafshan are highest in summer (June-July) and lowest in winter (January-February). During floods excess water from the right bank channel drains though canals into the river. At this time approximately 30% of the nature reserve is flooded. When water levels are low, about 70% of the site has very little water. Soils on all of the area are well drained, and only in a few small depressions is there underground water and swamps. Tugai forest vegetation is well developed. The richest and most vegetated area is located in the north-western part of the nature reserve where underground waters are not more than 2 m below the surface. In spite of its small size, the landscape of the nature reserve is very varied. 868 ha of the lower area are covered with tugai forest. There are widespread tree-shrub biotopes, meadows and marshy-meadows, and wetland habitats are represented by brooks, old canals and fire-prevention ponds, overgrown by hygrophilous vegetation, scattered throughout the forest zone. The Zarafhan river, cliffs on the left bank, pebble beaches and arid areas are also of interest.
Key biodiversity
The avifauna includes 218 species (Marmazinskaya, Fundukchiev, 2004). 14 of them are residents, 51 breeding, 57 wintering and 96 migrants. Residents: Phasianus colchicus zerafschanicus, Columba livia, Streptopelia decaocto, Alcedo atthis, Dendrocopos leucopterus, Galerida cristata, Acridotheres tristis, Pica pica and Parus bokharensis. Nesting: Tachybaptus ruficollis, Nycticorax nycticorax, Accipiter badius, Falco tinnunculus, Gallinula chloropus, Columba palumbus, Streptopelia turtur, Athene noctua, Asio otus, Otus scops, Otus brucei, Caprimulgus europaeus, Merops apiaster, Coracias garullus, Upupa epops, Hirundo rustica, Oriolus oriolus, Turdus merula, Luscinia megarhynchos and Remiz pendulinus. Migrants: Phalacrocorax carbo, Ph. pygmaeus, Ciconia nigra, Anser anser, Tadorna ferruginea, Anas querquedula, Anas clypeata, Netta rufina, Aythya fuligula, Mergellus albellus, Pandion haliaetus, Pernis apivorus, Milvus migrans, Circus macrourus, Circus pygargus, Сircaetus gallicus, Aquila heliaca, Haliaeetus albicilla, Falco peregrinus, Coturnix coturnix, Grus grus, Grus virgo, Burhinus oedicnemus, Himantopus himantopus, Sterna caspia, Sterna albifrons, Motacilla citreola, Motacilla cinerea, Motacilla alba, Motacilla personata, Phoenicurus phoenicurus, Saxicola torquata, Muscicapa striata, Carpodacus erythrinus and others. Wintering: Tachybaptus ruficollis, Egretta alba, Ardea cinerea, Anas platyrhynchos, Anas crecca, Circus cyaneus, Circus aeruginosus, Accipiter gentilis, Accipiter nisus, Buteo lagopus, Buteo buteo, Fulica atra, Gallinago gallinago, Tringa ochropus, Scolopax rusticola, Asio otus, Corvus cornix, Troglodytes troglodytes, Erithacus rubecula, Phoenicurus erythronotus, Parus rufonuchalis, Parus flavipectus, Turdus atrogularis, Turdus merula, Fringilla coelebs, Fringilla montifringilla, Emberiza citronella and others. Vagrant: Neophron percnopterus, Aegypius monachus, Gyps fulvus, Bubo bubo, Apus melba, Corvus corax. Scientific reports indicate the presence of Crex crex in the 1980s. 26 species are included in the Red Data Book of Uzbekistan. There are separate records of Ardeola ralloides, Phoenicopterus roseus, Hieraaetus pennatus, Aquila nipalensis and Chlamydotis undulata. The nature reserve and adjoining farmlands are the main habitat of Phasianus colchicus zerafschanicus – a restricted range endemic included in the National Red Data Book. The Zarafshan river is a flyway for many birds of prey, Anseriformes, Gruidae, Columbiiformes, Ciconia nigra and others. The forest part of the nature reserve is a wintering area for Egretta alba and Ardea cinerea, some species of Anseriformes, buzzards and small raptors, Scolopax rusticola, Asio otus, some species of Turdus, and many Passeriformes. Columba palumbus, Asio otus and Otus scops breed in the floodplain forest. Two colonies of Nycticorax nycticorax, located in the tugai forests along the Zerafshan, are protected by the nature reserve. Therefore the Zarafshan nature reserve plays a large role in the conservation of regional biodiversity and the last of the Zarafshan river valley tugai forest complex. Acridotheres tristis – an invasive species – is common in the nature reserve and is thought to be threatening the survival of native species.
Non-bird biodiversity: Zarafshan nature reserve is the only place in the Zarafshan river valley where tugai forest has been preserved. In spite of its small size the nature reserve has a high diversity of biotopes, vegetation and animals. The fauna includes 2 species of Amphibian, 18 species of Fish, 10 species of Reptile and 24 species of Mammal. Agrionemys horsfieldi (RL) can be found here. Lutra lutra seistanica (RDBUz) was recorded in thickets of dense tugai vegetation along the irrgation canal. Two groups of 10 Cervus elaphus (RDBUz, RL) were reintroduced into the tugai forest in August 2005 and October 2007, as part of the Bokhara Deer conservation progamme. The vegetation includes a special complex, peculiar to this region, formed in the tugai. The flora includes about 300 species and is very varied because of the very heterogeneous soils. There is tree tugai, shrub tugai, grassy tugai, floodlands, land above the flood plain and desert habitats. Salix songarica, S. wilhelmsiana, Hippophae rhamnoides, Elaeagnus angustifolia and Tamarix sp prevail among trees. Populus prunosa, Populus diversifolia and Crataegus turkestanica are more rare. Because of the site's proximity to mountain ranges about 100 ha of Hippophae rhamnoides thickets is preserved here - a habitat which is not found in such amount in other tugai forests. When forestry was carried out on the area now covered by the nature reserve, several species were introduced and these are now well established. These species are Platanus orientalis, Ailanthus sp., Gleditschia sp., Morus nigra, Morus alba, Populus alba, Juglans regia, Cydonia oblonga, Malus domestica, Armeniaca vulgaris, Cerasus mahaleb, Robinia pseudacacia, Vitis vinifera and Fraxinus sp. Crocus korolkovii (RDBUz) and Colchicum kesselringii (RDBUz) are included in the National Red Data Book.

Super Mario Bros 3 is one of the greatest video games of all time, and influenced lots of future releases, as well as Jesus Castaneda's art. That's right, ladies and gentleman, apparently someone was charmed by more than the fantastic gameplay, catchy music, unique world maps and varied power-ups. Jesus Castaneda thought the game's pixel art was good enough to be adapted and tweaked to represent some beloved pop culture icons such as Deadpool, Ghstobusters, Wolverine or Superman. The result? Old school, amusing, and over-all damn kickass. If you feel like going retro, enjoy these pics with us.
[Note]: We were gonna call this 8-bit art, but it's not. Although Super Mario Bros 3 is an 8-bit videogame, and these drawings get direct inspiration from it, these are actually 16 bit sprites, as most of them have more than 3 colors total, and as much as we love our NES, that'd be way beyond its capabilities.
Doctor Who / Doctor Mario Crossover
You get both versions to compare, one including the classic Mario from Super Mario Bros, the NES classic, and one with the doctor. Somehow, we think the doctor might be better prepared to fight those Daleks than Mario.
The Incredible Hulk (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Now this guy did more than just grab a couple mushroom power-ups. The green menace could plow through most levels, crushing bricks with his fists and stomping on Bowser.
Deadpool (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
The Merc with a Mouth is basically Mario's sprite with a paintjob (not to be confused with a Palette swap). We're not sure if he could take on Bowser and his 7 kids, but he sure as hell could annoy them with his jokes.
Bobba Fett and Jango Fett (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Talking about palette swaps, here's the most beloved mercenary from the Star Wars franchise accompanied by his dad. We like Bobba's sprite more, as it's based on Mario's flying pose rather than the walking pose. Also, Episodes 4 to 6 are better than Episodes 1 to 3.
Lord of the Rings (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
"One does not simply walk into Dark Land (World 8)". Whose journey do you think was the hardest?
Iron Man (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Iron Man doesn't need to hold B to run, he has turbines! This makes us wish there had been a good Iron Man game back in 1990.
Wolverine (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Now this would make for a cool power up. We'd trade every Kuribo's boot or Tanooki power up for some adamantium claws and mutant-factor healing. Then, we'd shred Bowser.
Superman (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Now here's someone who doesn't need power-ups and could actually do the flying sprite justice. The game would probably be too easy, but hey, if you can't handle Superman, don't invite Superman.
Batman & Robin (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Now, if only Super Mario Bros 3 could be re-released with a co-op mode like the Super Mario Bros Wii game, this picture would be twice as funny. And we'd have to download it and replay it all over again.
Ghostbusters (Super Mario Bros 3 Version)
Now, this version sort of makes more sense than most, as both Super Mario Bros 3 and Ghostbusters are some of the most beloved pop culture icons of the 80's. We're surprised it took so long for someone to mix them up!
Harry Potter
Now everything makes sense: the Racoon power-up had a magic wand hidden, so Mario could cast Wingardium Leviosa and fly. We always thought just a tail wouldn't be enough to keep afloat!
Bonus Track: Villains in Super Mario Bros 3 Style
Because a game couldn't be complete without some bad guys to stomp on, here's Castaneda's version of Killer Croc and Mystique. Now someone make this happen!

The Big East Tournament starts tonight with Butler and Seton Hall at 7:00 PM and Georgetown
falling to DePaul playing DePaul around 9:30. (We'll have the St. John's previews in the morning, if you're wondering. )
The action will all be on Fox Sports 1. Bill Raftery and Gus Johnson will see Seton Hall for the first time live (and then they will avert their eyes). The fans will be - well, we hope they will be there and aren't just waiting for tomorrow's games to really get into gear.
And we'll be watching. Come by and comment on the game action; I'll keep a running log unless I'm out walking the dog. Four jam-packed days before the championship game.
Everyone has a chance. For at least one more game.
Can any of tonight's teams go on a magical run? Butler has been playing better of late, and Georgetown isn't that different from the cluster of good-not-great teams like St. John's, Providence, Marquette and even Xavier.
Are you feeling the loss of the likes of Syracuse and Connecticut? Are you feeling nostalgic?

Comparison between Intralesional Triamcinolone and Kligman's Formula in Treatment of Melasma
Melasma is a common acquired skin disorder. While different treatments are currently being used, in many cases it is refractory to treatment. According to the effects of topical steroids in decreasing skin pigmentation, we studied the efficacy of this new method for treatment of melasma. A total of 42 women with facial melasma, admitted to the department of dermatology of Hamadan, were enrolled in the study. They were divided randomly into two groups (A and B), group A (case) received subepidermal triamcinolone injections with a dose of 4mg per cc and 5mm intervals until complete blanching of melasma lesions, and group B (control) received Kligman's formula (hydroquinone5%, tretinoin 0.1%, and dexamethasone 0.1%). At the first visit, we completed the MASI score papers, and we repeated that at weeks 4 and 8 of the study. We followed them for two months, every two weeks. At each visit, side effects and clinical response to treatment were noted. A decrease in MASI was observed in both group (11.57 ± 4.33 vs 9.31 ± 3.75 at 4th week and vs 8.01 ± 3.1 at 8th week, P-value < 0.001 in group A, and 10.46 ± 5.61 vs 9.76 ± 5.21 at 4th week and vs 8.96 ± 4.96 at 8th week, P-value< 0.001 in group B). In comparison between 2 groups, response to treatment was much better in group A than group B (P-value<0.001). In comparison to topical treatments, based on these findings, triamcinolone microinjection is a new, safe and strong therapeutic method for treatment of melasma.

This is the second part (and conclusion) to Chad Coley's initial post on forgiveness and our relationship with the Father.
It is easy to sin against someone else. That statement alone should be a sobering thought. If we are believers in Christ Jesus, we know we still sin (1 John 1:8). I have seen firsthand in the lives of friends and family what sin can do and how it can mar and destroy relationships. After a while of giving in to sin, men can do things they never would have believed possible years before. I have seen godly men forfeit their marriages, their ministries, and their reputations because of the allure of alcohol. I have seen women refuse to forgive others and hold on to bitterness and anger until they become isolated from all their friends and family. You see, just like Adam and Eve, our ancestors, sin separates…sin always separates. You can see the separation in the first moments after the Fall. God confronts Adam about eating the forbidden fruit, and Adam, in turn, blames his wife (Genesis 3:12). Just one chapter before, when Eve was created from Adam's rib, Adam describes her this way…
"This is now bone of my bones,
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called Woman,
Because [she was taken out of Man."
This is a big change from Genesis 3:12. As a believer in Christ, you must understand that the Father cares about the relationships of His children. One member of the body of Christ cannot live without another member. They are all necessary and all are of equal value and importance to God. He places such a high value on unity in the body that your relationship with the Father is affected by your refusal to forgive others. Let's look at Matthew 6:14-15 once again.
"For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions."
Here are four ways this passage helps you to have a better understanding of forgiveness. In my previous post, we looked at:
- The Call to Forgive Assumes You Have Been Forgiven
- The Call to Forgive is About Fellowship With the Father
Today, we are going to look at the next two points:
- The Call to Forgive is About Fellowship with God's People
When we look at Jesus' statement here in Mathew, we must understand God places such an emphasis on a believer's relationships with others that it affects a person's relationship with Him. Separation from others is not acceptable when it comes to our relationship with God. Peter gives an example of this in 1 Peter 3:7 when he tells husbands to live with their wives in an understanding way so that their prayers would not be hindered. A believer's interpersonal relationships affect his fellowship with the Almighty. A believer is to love those in the Body of Christ. He is to believe all things, seek the other person's highest good, even at the expense of one's self. This is love for the saints, as John says in 1 John 3:14. We follow Jesus' example, being kind and forgiving one another (Ephesians 4:32). This is how we know that we are in fact believers (1 John 2:6). We love those in the church more than ourselves. Jesus says here at the end of the Lord's Prayer that a failure to forgive others, to maintain a proper relationship with another believer, will result in break in fellowship with the Father.
Practically speaking, forgiveness frees the conscious from guilt about a particular sin that you have committed and the separation which it has caused. A lack of forgiveness leads to bitterness, anger, gossip, aggravation, annoyance, and hate in one's heart toward another person. It is hard to love another member of the body of Christ when you have hate in your heart (1 John 3:14). What if the other person will not forgive you when you have sinned against him? It is your duty to seek him out and try to reconcile (Matthew 5:24). If he will not reconcile with you, then it becomes an issue between him and God, and your conscience can be clear in the matter. Just remember, if forgiveness is granted, things will not go back to the way they were immediately. Reconciliation is a process that takes time. Trust is slowly won back as the offender proves he is living a repentant life.
- The Call to Forgive Is Not Negotiable
Our goal as believers should be to grow in our fellowship with God on a daily basis. A daily cleansing from sin is necessary for believers to maintain this communion. 1 John 1:9 says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." Forgiveness is about fellowship–fellowship with God and fellowship with His people. In Matthew 5:24; 6:14-15, Jesus makes it plain that forgiveness is not an option. If the person who has sinned against you asks for forgiveness, then you must grant it.
Now, it is important to note that there are always consequences for our sin. These consequences are not negated by the forgiveness offered by the victim of our sin. The sinner must understand that legal ramifications may still happen. A loss of job or disqualification from ministry may be the permanent consequences for some sins.
Also, with that forgiveness, you must work at reconciliation. Depending on the sin and the level of trust that has been broken, reconciliation may take months or even years. Reconciliation is the hard part. Some relationships may never be fully restored to what they were before. To be reconciled means to have no ill will toward the person who sinned against you–to think good of them and to pray for them. Reconciliation means that we do not avoid the person or harbor bitterness toward him. To say that you forgive someone and yet not be reconciled to him is not a true picture of forgiveness. For a person who has been forgiven much by God, to deny another person forgiveness is unthinkable. Worse yet, it is disobedience to God's Word. Some will say, "you don't know what He did to me!" Or, "She hurt me so much…" and maybe "I have never been so surprised and disappointed." Once again, it is important to remember that every person who has ever lived on this earth has sinned against someone else and made him a victim; and he, in turn, has been victimized himself.
Reconciliation is not easy, especially when you are the one who has been sinned against. To rebuild trust that has been broken takes time. We must remember that reconciliation is a command by God. In Mathew 5:24 Jesus says that if a person is presenting his offering to God and remembers that his brother has something against him, he is to leave his offering and go and try to be reconciled. God cares more about your fellowship with another believer than your religious activity. Bringing a sacrifice to the altar in the days when Jesus lived was not an easy task. It would take many hours, as the person would have to have his offering examined, and then he would have to wait in line for hours. As you can imagine, getting to the front and then remembering that your brother has something against you…what an inconvenience! Yet, this is exactly what Jesus told His followers to do.
For many believers, the "easier" path is the one which leads away from forgiveness and reconciliation. When we are hurt by others, the easy thing to do is to turn our backs and refuse to associate with them. By ignoring them and distancing ourselves from them, we seem to bring resolution to the situation. In reality, we are refusing to ask for forgiveness and humble ourselves, or refusing to forgive the one seeking our forgiveness. Our separation from each other leads to a separation from God. The Father will not tolerate a disobedient child for long (Hebrews 12:4-11). Read how the Father rebukes the man who had been forgiven much in Matthew 18:21-35. Also, you must remember that there is the future judgment of the redeemed, in which all believers will stand before Christ and have their lives examined. This is not a judgment to determine entrance into heaven, but rather a judgment to see the quality and faithfulness of one's life. An unforgiving life is an unrepentant life, and forfeits blessings and invites discipline (2 Corinthians 5:10).
Your personal relationships matter to God. You must forgive! To withhold forgiveness is to continue to separate yourself from a brother or sister in Christ. It is to separate yourself ultimately from the Father. You see, it is about fellowship–fellowship with the Father and His children. When all has been said and done, and you come to the end of your life, how sad it would be to look back and see missed opportunities for friendships due to the lack of forgiveness. Even more so, how truly sad it would be to stand before Christ and see the blessings you missed and fellowship with the Father which could have been much sweeter and deeper were it not for the lack of forgiveness in your heart. Remember, sin separates…sin always separates.
